Troubleshooting Virtual Server 2005 R2

In this section, we go over troubleshooting for the Virtual Server 2005 R2 itself. While this is not an exhaustive list of problems you may encounter, these tips and tricks should be helpful when dealing with problems in the following areas:

  • Virtual Server Administration Web Site

  • Virtual Server Settings

  • Virtual Machine Performance Issues

Troubleshooting Virtual Server Administration Web Site

The bulk of the administrative functions and troubleshooting you will perform in Microsoft Virtual Server 2005 R2 will be done through the Virtual Server Administration Web site. This section will go over what to do when the Administration Web site is the problem.

Troubleshooting LsaLogonUser() failed!

You ve got your shiny new Virtual Server loaded and all ready to go and you launch the Administration Web site only to be confronted with the dreaded LsaLogonUser() failed! error (see Figure 9.1).


Figure 9.1: LsaLogonUser() failed! Error

You likely won t see this error unless you ve set up your virtual server as a member of a workgroup, rather than as a member of a domain. This error comes from the default settings of the Virtual Server Administration Web site to use Integrated Windows Authentication.
