How to fix: Windows installation encountered an unexpected error. Verify the installation sources are accessible, and restart the installation. Error code: 0xE0000100

You must be getting the “Windows installation encountered an unexpected error. Verify the installation sources are accessible, and restart the installation. Error code: 0xE0000100” error. This is actually a really easy error to fix!

Windows Cannot find the Micrsoft Software License Terms. Make sure the installatio sources are valid

The main reason for this on Hyper-V is that you have haven’t given Hyper-V enough memory. Because of this, Hyper-V/Windows Install could not pass some checks. The default is 512MB and I’ve noticed that on Windows Server  2012 (R2) Hyper-V this can be to little. I recommend 1024MB of RAM as the Minimum amount.

To change this go into the Memory section on the Virtual machine and change it from 512MB -> 1024MB

Windows Cannot find the Micrsoft Software License Terms. Make sure the installatio sources are valid-01

I hope this has helped you learn how to Fix: “Windows installation encountered an unexpected error. Verify the installation sources are accessible, and restart the installation. Error code: 0xE0000100” error!

Failover Cluster VM can talk on the network but can’t respond…

This was one of those things when you make a mistake configuring something and then it doesn’t behave the way you’d expect it to.

When I setup a 3 Hyper-v VM’s one of the machines could not be reached from the network. All 3 machines were installed on a 2 node failover cluster. What was weird was the machine I couldn’t talk to (i.e.. I couldn’t ping or Remote desktop into) could ping machines on the network and receive responses. It also could get an IP address from a DHCP out on the network.

After failing miserably at troubleshooting the issue I installed a 4th VM to the same failover cluster. Everything worked. I went and installed a 5th machine and everything seemed to work.

I did some live migrations and fooled around with things. This morning I tried accessing a VM that could be communicated with last night. It started acting very similar to the machine that was “misbehaving” the day before.

It turns out I missed a small but VERY important step when configuring the VM. I forgot to “Enable spoofing of MAC addresses”.

In order to enable this the machine needs to be off. Once off, you can place a check mark into the selection box. Once done I rebooted the machine and it could now talk back and forth as one would normally expect.

How to change the MAC Pool range in both HyperV Manager and SCVMM

To change the MAC pool range in HyperV manager open HyperV Manager. Select the server and right click it. Select “Virtual Network Manager”

image

Under Global Network Settings select MAC Address Range

image

To change the MAC pool range in System Centre Virtual Machine Manager (scvmm) open up VMM. Once open click on “Administration”.

image

Double click “Global Static MAC address Range”.

image

Enter the values you would like to enter.

image 

The difference between HyperV Manager’s approach and SCVMM to Mac addresses is that HyperV Manager you can only specify the MAC address range per server. SCVMM you can specify the MAC range for all the VMMs created on any hosts that are being controlled through SCVMM.

VMM–Install virtual machine guest components is greyed out

If you right click a running virtual Machine in VMM you will notice that the option to “install virtual guest services” is greyed out.

This “issue” is by design. You can only “install the virtual guest services” while the machine is off or through Hyper-V manager which makes you reboot the computer. The install normally takes around 2 minutes but can vary due to the size of the VM.

Hope this helps.
