Configure the Hyper-V Server Connection Information for Instant VM

When you submit Instant VM jobs for Linux Nodes, the Backup Server tries to detect the Hyper-V server automatically. But if the process fails, you can verify to ensure that the correct Hyper-V server connection information is used.

Follow these steps:

1. Log onto the Backup Server as a root user.
2. Navigate to the following Hyper-V folder:

   /opt/Arcserve/d2dserver/configfiles/hyperv

   Note: If the folder is not present, create the folder. The Hyper-V folder contains the <upper_case_hyperv_server_name>.cfg file. Each Hyper-V server has its own cfg file.

3. To configure the Hyper-V connection information, add the following lines in the specific <upper_case_hyperv_server_name>.cfg file:

   protocol=<HTTP|HTTPS>

   port=<number>

   Note: If the <upper_case_hyperv_server_name>.cfg file is not present, create the file.

   For protocol and port number, access the target Hyper-V Server using the following command line:

   winrm enumerate winrm/Config/Listener

   For example: The target Hyper-V server name is ivm-hyperv and the WinRM on Hyper-V server is configured as HTTPS listening on port 5986, then open the following cfg file:

   /opt/Arcserve/d2dserver/configfiles/hyperv/IVM-HYPERV.cfg

   Add the following lines:

   protocol=HTTPS

   port=5986

The connection information for Hyper-V server is configured.
