Over Christmas I completed migrating our SCVMM 07 environmentover to SCVMM 08. An issue appeared this week which had me stumped, all of a sudden creating VMs from some templates started to fail when trying to “Install VM Components”. Error (3101) VMM failed to mount VHD file D:\BOH-DHOPE-V07\BOH-DHOPE-V07_disk_1.vhd on the * server. A timeout occurred. [...]

Microsoft were due to release SCVMM 2008 yesterday (8th October) but according to a forum post by Carmen Asher (a Program Manager at Microsoft) the release has been delayed until October 30th. Ohh well, I guess that pushes our upgrade to SCVMM 2008 back a month – Darn.
