I have a server 2008r2 host with hyper v. There are currently 2 virtual machines in Hyper-V. When I try to create third, I get the following error:<br />
<br />
The server encountered an error while create&quot;machine name&quot;<br />
<br />
The operation failed.<br />
<br />
Failed to create external configuration store at &quot;virtual machine location&quot;: General access denied eorror (Virtual machine ID 0X800700005)<br />
<br />
I have other servers hosting hyper v and virtual machines. I compared security setting on the folders for the virtual machines and I do not see any difference. This is a production server so I cannot wipe it and try again. Assistance is GREATLY appreciated.

Can't create new VM on Server 2008R2  in Hyper V

Hyper-V is a native hypervisor; it can create virtual machines on x86-64 systems and supersedes Windows Virtual PC as the hardware virtualization component of the client editions of Windows NT. A server computer running Hyper-V can be configured to expose individual virtual machines to one or more networks. Hyper-V Server supports remote access via Remote Desktop Connection. Administration and configuration of the host OS and the guest virtual machines is generally done over the network.

Hyper-V

Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2, based on the Microsoft Vista codebase, is the last 32-bit server operating system released by Microsoft. It has a number of versions, including including Foundation, Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, HPC Server, Itanium and Storage; new features included server core installation and Hyper-V.
