Introduction
This article describes the issues that are fixed in System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2019 UR1 release. There are two updates that are available for Virtual Machine Manager, one for the Virtual Machine Manager server and one for the Administrator Console (x86 and amd64). This article also contains the installation instructions for this update.
Issues that are fixed
Unable to add Windows Server 2019 hosts in untrusted domain to SCVMM.
Changes to VM network adapter or VM network overwrites associated ACL.
Unable to pull LLDP information on pNICs bount to a vSwitch.
Long running service template deployments time out after 3 hours. Timeout parameter can now be configured to time above 3 hours using the HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftMicrosoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager ServerSettingsGuestCommunicatorStatusTimeoutSecs registry key to any desired value.
VMM service experiences high memory usage with large number of objects created in tbl_ADHC_HostVolume
Unable to assign VM network to VMs on the hosts
Automatic Dynamic Optimization fails on clusters in untrusted domain
VMM jobs take long time to run whenever there is VMM server fail over to another node.
Storage Provider Refresh fails when the NIC has no MAC present.
Unable to create a file share with the same name on different file servers through SCVMM console.
Cluster creation fails when VMM service is running under gMSA account with ‘Access denied' exception.
In addition to these, all the issues fixed in System Center 2016 VMM UR8 and prior URs for VMM 2016 are also fixed in System Center VMM 2019 UR1.
Other Improvements and Features
With VMM2019 UR1, you can deploy Ubuntu 18.04 Virtual machines.
Nested Virtualization for VMs can be enabled through VM Template, service templates and while creating a new VM through console.
SCVMM 2019 UR1 also has additional new features introduced. For details on the new features refer to the documentation here.
Known issues and workaround
Issue:
Set-SCVMSubnet -RemovePortACL job completes in VMM without removing portACL association from NC VMSubnet object, due to which Remove-PortACL job fails with NC Exception that it is still in use.
Workaround:
Below script can be added as workaround to remove the ACL from NC:
Import-Module NetworkController
$uri = '' # Replace with the URI of the Network Controller REST IP or FQDN
$cred = Get-Credential # Provide NC Admin credentials
#Identify the virtual network that contains the subnet.
$vnet = Get-NetworkControllerVirtualNetwork -ConnectionUri $uri -ResourceId 'Fabrikam_VNet1' -Credential $cred
#Identify the subnet for which the ACL needs to be removed.
$vnet.Properties.Subnets[0].Properties = $vnet.Properties.Subnets[0].Properties | Select-Object -Property * -ExcludeProperty AccessControlList
#Update
New-NetworkControllerVirtualNetwork -ResourceId 'Fabrikam_VNet1' -ConnectionUri $uri –Properties $vnet.Properties -Credential $cred

Thursday August 29th
Program Vm 2019 Program
Lead Instructor – Deji Akomolafe @Dejify
External Expert – Olayiwola Adeyemi, Solution Architect, Zeta-web Nigeria
Active Directory Domain Services (ADDS) is one of the most critical components of a Windows IT infrastructure. Most operations and functionalities in an Enterprise Microsoft Windows infrastructure depend on a robust, scalable, redundant and reliable Active Directory infrastructure. While most enterprises have adopted virtualization as the standard platform for their mission critical applications in production, many enterprise administrators and operators are still reluctant to virtualize Domain Controllers in their environments.
VMware's Microsoft Applications Virtualization Lead (Deji Akomolafe) will deliver the workshop. He will take you through the journey of virtualizing AD DS, avoiding common pitfalls, and recovering from common failures and problems associated with running Active Directory Domain Services in your enterprises. Demos include hands-on troubleshooting, correction, stabilization and optimization of a defective AD DS forest and multiple domains. Topics include, virtualization and the AD DS Database, replication, time synchronization and convergence, Fault domains, common challenge and general Best Practices.
