    Hi,

    Yesterday i replaced windows 2008 os vhd file with new sysprep image for one of my virtual machines. Now when i tried to start the machine i get access denied error. I tried to figure out the permissions on previous VHD file but not able to find the same accounts using active directory. Our setup is like this -->

    All the Hyper-V servers are in cluster and they are storing vhd files on CSV. We have installed the clustered using another AD user account rather than using domain administrator.

    Please let me know how can i find the account that needs to be set on this vhd in order to get the virtual machine started.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    Thanks. I got the reply. Actually the owner of the machine is different and I am trying to run the command on different hyper-v machine in the same cluster. I think if I run the command on the same hyper-v server which is owner of the vm then there will be no problem. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Thanks.

    Hello Decoder,

    you can try to take ownership and grant full access. Below was for SP1 problem.

    But can also be used for VM Permission.

    takeown /F c:\Windows\Servicing\Packages /D y /R

    Then assign full control using:

    cacls c:\Windows\Servicing\Packages /E /T /C /G "UserName":F

    This will grant you full control over the directory.

    Sincerely,

    Murat Demirkiran

    Hi,

    Thanks Murat, issue is resolved now. I have already updated that I was trying to provide permission from another host in the cluster which is not the current owner of the machine because of which I was getting error.

    Thanks.
