I have Systems Center Essentials 2010, and in my Server Console, I was attempting to install Virtual Guest Services on an existing HyperV Server, and the Console reports "Update Failed".
The server is listed, but the "State" is not properly indicated.
When I attempt to right click and select "Repair", nothing happens.
If I attempt to "Install Virtual Guest Services" again the Console reports there is no OS on the server.
I am unable to do anything in System Center Essentials for this virtual machine. I can even go to my Fail Over Cluster server and live migrate to the other host but System Center still reports the server on the original host, and fails to report its correct location.
Even in Administration I am unable to change the status of this server. I have even attempted to remove the agent and re-install with no change.
Obviously I don't want to risk "deleting" the system from the console, but is there anything manually that can change the State or "update" the Virtual Guest Services?
