Installation

Requirements

  • Full System Requirements
  • Must be installed on a system in the domain
  • Must be installed on Windows Server 2008 X64
  • Must be able to resolve hosts via DNS

Troubleshooting

  • If the installer continually states machine must be rebooted before installation can continue clearing the value at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\PendingFileRenameOperations will resolve the issue.
  • If problems occur adding host systems to the VMM console using the windows domain joined host option such as a “Network path not found” error use the windows perimeter network host option by manually installing the agent on the host server and copying the SecurityFile.txt file from C:\Program Files\Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 on the host system to a location on the SCVMM server and referencing it during the addition process.
