Struggling with this problem for about a year but never had time to dig into it...
Dell R730, 2 x E5-2680 v4, 64GB RAM, SSD Enterprise Storage, VEEAM Backup & Replication
I have a VM with WS 2019 that it liked to boot in ~ 40 minutes 1 year ago and now it takes ~ 2 hours to boot. There are 2 cores at 50% and no disk or network activity on the physical server. The VM console shows Hyper-V logo and the loading dots.
VM Config is default and I changed: Disabled Secure Boot, 37GB RAM, 16 x CPU, on the network interface I disabled Virtual Machine Queue, Enabled Guest Services
What I tried:
- Updated BIOS, Firmware, Drivers
- New VM config and attached VHDX
- Its not related to the VEEAM problem with the reference points, I checked and its 0 and the .VMCX file is 96KB
- Moved VHDX to another RAID Storage
- Checked VEEAM Config Settings with other servers and are the same, all defaults.
- Checked Event Viewer and no related errors.
- Set BIOS to performance mode
Noticed that the VM starts in a few seconds if I restart the VM the same day it booted
I have 2 more VM's on this server and they work fine.
