Have you recently upgraded your Windows Server 2008 R2 machine with Hyper-V to Service Pack 1? Well, some unique changes to Hyper-V come along with that upgrade. One of these is the need to upgrade the Integration Services (Components) for each of the VMs on your Hyper-V Server. This video shows how you can automate the upgrade of all your VMs utilizing OIS and the available VMM Integration Pack.

  • Through VMM, the update process has to happen when the machine is powered down (that is why the right-click option is greyed out for running machines in the VMM Admin Console). There are other ways to perform these actions, workflow or not. One would be to use software distribution in Configuration Manager (which could be orchestrated by an OIS workflow). You could also automatically mount the ISO using HyperV PowerShell and then execute a silent install script for the IS inside the VM.

  • Can a workflow be created that would update IS, but not power off the system?
