Windows 10: Problems with connecting multiple VMs on different PCs with each other.

Hi


I hope someone can help me please.


I'm trying to get 4 Hyper-V VMs on 2 different PCs to connect with each other. Here's the scoop:


I have my laptop with WiFi and ethernet with 1 VM and a desktop with ethernet with 3 VMs - connected to each other with a crossover LAN cable.


I want to share my WiFi's internet, so ALL 4 VMs are connected to each other and have internet that's coming from the WiFi.


Note: I did create a virtual switch in Hyper-V that's using the Ethernet on both the laptop and the desktop.


I have accomplished this by using the following 2 methods. It worked once, and never again.

Method 1: Share the WiFi's internet with the Virtual Switch, and all the VMs on the laptop and desktop had internet and connected to each other perfectly. Worked once and never again


Method 2: Create a Network Bridge with the WiFi and the Virtual Switch, and all the VMs on the laptop and desktop had internet and connected to each other perfectly. Worked once and never again


When both methods stopped working, I obviously tried to redo it again, google A LOT to troubleshoot why each method is not working anymore, played with IP configurations and DNS settings, ask other network engineers and NOTHING. I just don't get either method to work again.


Maybe I'm approaching it the wrong way? Any advice would be appreciated.


Thanks in advanced

Can I share a network connection from a VM to the host OS?

hmm, i will assumer no responces = no, i cannot share it... lucky me, i finally got it to work in 7 with steps pretty close... Program Files > Pantech is where you will need to point windows to inorder to the card running in 7... though it would be nice to be able to share hardware and network connections from a VM to the host PC...

 

Account failed logon 4625 on VM guest when clicking the entry of VM guest on failover cluster Manager on VM Host

Issue:

We found a multiple failed logon events on VM guest (evert ID 4625) with account (the account you logon on VM host) when we clicking the entry of VM guest on failover cluster manager console on VM host with Integration servers (Data Exchange) is enabled.



How to reproduce:

1. Check the “Data Exchange” is enabled on a VM guest (Enabled by default, right?)
2. Open Failover Cluster Manager Console on VM host.
3. Click the VM guest entry
4. Then you may found multiple failed logon events on that VM guest.

Reference:

Hyper-V Integration Services



Question:

1. Does the multiple failed logons are normal or necessary?
2. If the failed logons are normal and necessary to be happened and the “Data exchange” function is good to be enabled to gather data from VM guest, any recommendation for us to correct or avoid these failed logon?

Please advise.



Constrain:

We have no chance to use same account and password on VM hosts and VM guests (because all account are managed by password management) and the Audit Policy of Audit Credential Validation must be enabled.
