Real Time Anti-Virus on Hyper V server
I found a lot of people facing problem with hyper V servers and getting those errors.
Hyper-V-VMMS 18160
Hyper-V-Worker 12030,12010
These events indicate that the Virtual machine couldn’t start due to another process is accessing the same file.
Actually this error mostly due to running anti-virus application
on the Hyper-V server as it interrupters the VM process.
As running anti-virus application is an essential thing, you must consider exclude those folders on your Hyper-V server
· Default VM Config Directory
[C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Hyper-V]
· Default VM VHD Directory
[C:\Users\Public\Documents\Hyper-V\Virtual Hard Disks]
· Custom VHD Directory
[The directory that you store the VHD file]
· Snapshot Directory
[C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Hyper-V\Snapshots]
· The follow three processes for Hyper-V
1. Vmms.exe
2. Vmwp.exe
3. VMSWP.exe
