HyperV/4220 - Remote SMB share does not support resiliency.

I have a 4220 I want to use for Hyper V (2012 R2 Standard) over SMB. I tried to move a virtual machine from local storage over to the 4220 SMB share and receive the error: "Remote SMB share does not support resiliency."

This KB article (https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2920193) seems to point to this being fixed with SMB3, that it should only occur with SMB1 and 2. But, I have installed SMB Plus and confirmed my 4220 is using SMB3. Upgraded to OS 6.1.9 and same issue occurs.

  • I powered off the virtual machine and it seemed like it was working, but again it failed with the same error. Just took a little while longer to fail.

    Samba doesn't support the smb3 part that is needed to run a smb datastore in hyper-v
  • According to Microsoft it should be supported:

    "Using Hyper-V with SMB has the following requirements:

    One or more computers running Windows Server 2012 R2 or Windows Server 2012 with the Hyper-V role installed. You can also use non-Microsoft file servers that implement the SMB 3.0 protocol."

    There are discussions about this on samba.org and elsewhere I think.

    I don't think samba supports the full SMB3 feature set at this time.

    Maybe this will change in the future, but I wouldn't expect a fix for this soon.
