The virtual machine could not be live migrated to the virtual machine host using this cluster configuration Error 10698

Hello ,

I have a Cluster configuration of 3 Hyper-V Host running with SVMM 2012.

I tried to do a live migration of one VM from one host to another host and it fails

have you any idea on how to fix it?

Please post the following from each host in a TXT file:

Elevated PowerShell:
Get-NetAdapter
Get-NetLbfoTeam
Get-VMSwitch
Get-VMHost | FL VirtualHardDiskPath

Let's see if the settings are correct across the nodes.

Hello Philip,

Thanks for your support main issue is VirtualHardDiskPath, I changed couple of VM to be on
same C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\VirtualMachines.

the reason that why I have that setup is because y have 2 luns/volumes in Equallogic and it is shared to hyper-V like to disk is there any option to use both harddisk or do we need to present as one Volume?

regards
The LUN needs to be added to Cluster Storage then to Cluster Shared Volumes.

Once that is done you will be able to Live Migrate the storage between the two and both nodes will have access.
Philip,

I got this on Cluster Shared Volumes like picture attached..User generated image

Please post the results of the following from both nodes:

Get-VMHost | FL VirtualHardDiskPath
Host 1

PS C:\Users\tstadmin> Get-VMHost | FL VirtualHardDiskPath
VirtualHardDiskPath : C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\Virtual Machines\


Host 2

PS C:\Users\tstadmin> get-vmhost | fl virtualharddiskpath
VirtualHardDiskPath : C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\Virtual Machines\


Host 3
PS C:\Users\tstadmin> get-vmhost | fl virtualharddiskpath
VirtualHardDiskPath : C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\Virtual Machines\

And this is how I can see in windows explorer:

Are all network ports on the servers now plugged in?

If yes, then run a Live Migration again to see if it is successful.
I got a Live migration Successfully from one VM but I had to move VM Storage from C:\ClusterStorage\Volume2\Virtual Machines\ to same   C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\Virtual Machines\

because the VirtualHardDiskPath set on all Host  is  C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\Virtual Machines\ and it works.

let me try to live migration with another VM that has the storage in C:\ClusterStorage\Volume2\Virtual Machines\
The settings files location for each node must be the same for all nodes.

We always set up a dedicated LUN for quorum and one for the VM files. Then we move on to create the LUN(s) required for the VM's VHDX files.
This is the result with VM Storage in Volume 2:

Are both nodes in the same domain, listed in Failover Cluster Manager as being part of the same cluster?
yes 3 nodes are part of the same Failover Cluster Manager and same domain

Please post the following from all three nodes:

get-vmhost | fl VirtualMachinePath
