The move can also be initiated using the Move-VM PowerShell cmdlet.


In my experience, the Shared Nothing Live Migration can be one of the most
troublesome migrations to get working, so here are my top troubleshooting tips:


First,  make    sure    that    you have    adhered to  the requirements    I   listed  previously.
Check the Event Viewer for detailed messages. The location to check is
Applications and Services Logs ➣ Microsoft ➣ Windows ➣ Hyper-V-VMMW ➣
Admin.
Make sure that the IP configuration is correct between the source and target. The
servers must be able to communicate. Try pinging the target Live Migration IP
address from the source server.
Run the following PowerShell command in an elevated session to show the IP
addresses being used for a server and the order in which they will be used:
gwmi -n root\virtualization\v2 Msvm_VirtualSystemMigrationService |`
select MigrationServiceListenerIPAddressList

Make    sure    that    the Hyper-V (MIG-TCP-In)    firewall    exception   is  enabled on  the
target.
The target server must be resolvable by DNS. Try an nslookup of the target server.
On the target server, run the command ipconfig /registerdns, and then run
ipconfig /flushdns on the source server.
On the source server, flush the Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) cache with the
command arp -d *.
To test connectivity, try a remote WMI command to the target (the Windows
Management Instrumentation, WMI-In, firewall exception must be enabled on the
target), such as the following:
gwmi -computer <DestinationComputerName> ‐n root\virtualization\v2
Msvm_VirtualSystemMigrationService

Try changing    the IP  address used    for Live    Migration;  for example,    if  you’re
currently using 10.1.2.0/24, try changing to the specific IP address (for example,
10.1.2.1/32). Also check any IPsec configurations or firewalls between the sources
and target. Check for multiple NICs on the same subnet that could be causing
problems, and if you find any, try disabling one of them.
Try setting authentication to CredSSP, and initiate locally from a Hyper-V server. If
this works, the problem is the Kerberos delegation.

The most common problems I have seen are a misconfiguration of Kerberos and the
IP configuration, but failing to resolve the target server via DNS will also cause
