proxmox 3.4 with windows 2012 continues boot into repair mode

[offerlam]

Hi all,

I have continues problems with my windows 2012 servers on my proxmox 3.4 running with virtio 0.1.74 drivers after some time of running goes into a state where they keep booting into repair mode all of a sudden.

when i troupleshoot this it seems the VM can't find the disk anymore with windows.

No matter how fare back I go with the backups i keep seeing the error. Also when using backups that i know was taken when the server was working.

Im thinking my problem is that im using old Virtio drivers?

I would just like to ask here to get this confirmed? and also how i update virtio drivers on windows 2012 mashines that are running and haven't crashed this way yet?

Thanks!

Hi wolfgang

thanks for answering..

I suppose viostor and guest is what needs to be installed?

 

[wolfgang]

Yes if you use virtio viostor is the correct one.
Guest is for Guestagent if you use it.

i don't know what the guest agent is.. and so i don't know if i use it?

 

[wolfgang]

The Qemu Guest Agent is a program what you install in the VM and there it execute command from the host like shutdown the VM.
