Hi
We are currently changing all of our servers to virtual servers based on Hyper-V. Everything is running un Hyper-V 2012 R2 and all virtual machines are configured as Generation 2. We have successfully deployed Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials and Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard (Used for SQL-Server 2012).
But we also have a Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 Workgroup which we are trying to deploy. But when installing this as a Gen2 virtual machine we get BSOD on first system boot before entering OOBE. BSOD is INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE.
We have tried installing Windows Storage Server as a Gen1 virtual machine. With this type of installation we got all the way to the desktop without any issues.
Is Windows Storage Server 2012 R2 Workgroup not able to run as a Gen2 virtual machine with support for UEFI and Secure Boot?
We want to use Gen2 virtual machine for the Storage Server as we are trying to get identical configuration of all servers.
