So I recently had to rebuild my Server 2012 virtual server. I had storage spaces setup and after I finished the install the Virtual Disk was not mounted. I realized that I was able to bring it all back online, but every restart it had to remount the VHD.
I had decided there must be a way to fix it and decided to see what the properties were within PowerShell. I ran a Get-VirtualDisk which showed me my single VHD (pictured below)
so you are saying that
IsManualAttach
was originally set to true and that you set this to false.Set-VirtualDisk -FriendlyName "name" -IsmanualAttach 0
THANKS also from me. I’m new to VM storage so this would have taken me a wile to figure out.
thanks Matt! No, THANKS!!! 😀
Brilliant! I couldn’t figure out why the VHDs kept unmounting on reboot – thanks Matt! P.S. For others, make sure you are running PowerShell as an admin.
Nice find, Thanks Bro
