Insight Control virtual machine management does not display the Quick Move option
for HA-configured Microsoft Hyper-V server virtual machines in the Move wizard
Ensure the HA-configured Microsoft Hyper-V server virtual machine is listed in the Microsoft Failover
Cluster Management tool.
Check whether domain credentials are provided in system sign-in credentials of the HP SIM
credentials settings, and the Microsoft Hyper-V server host is registered properly. If the credentials
are not entered, enter them in the system sign-in credentials of the HP SIM credentials settings and
reregister the Microsoft Hyper-V server host.
Virtual machine cannot be made highly available unless all the VM files reside on
Cluster Shared Volume (CSV).
If a VM is added to a failover cluster manager directly from the Hyper V host, the VM can be made
highly available. But, if the VM files are on a non-CSV path and the related VM is added from the
Hyper V host, a warning is displayed.
