Unable to add hyper-v server 2019 host cluster into VMM 2019

Question

I configured a cluster with two servers, one with hyper-v server 2019 and the other with Windows server 2019 datacenter. I tried to add the nodes in vmm 2019 and the server with Windows server 2019 datacenter works without problems but the server with hyper-v server 2019 does not work and shows the following error:

"Error (20594)
The Windows feature NetworkVirtualization could not be enabled on the computer HV2.domain.com because of the following error: Unknown error (0x800f080c)
Recommended Action
Refer to Windows documentation for how to fix feature installation issues."

I've tried to solve it but without success. Has anyone had this problem?

Answer 1

Hi,

As per the discussion with internal team we have got to know that hyper-v 2019 is not supported with VMM 2019. Apologize for the inconvenience.

Answer 2

Yes , if you check the O.S , you will find it Hyper-V Server which isn't supported:

Answer 3

Hey,

As mentioned, Hyper-V Server is not supported by VMM. You will need to deploy Windows Server on your host to be able to manage it via VMM.

If you want to have a cluster from both nodes, you will need to install Hyper-V Server on both node.
