Integration Services Setup Disk Iso Download

05-03-2021 admin

Hey Guys, Can't figure this one out.
I have 2016 Hyper-V Server Core running, fully updated. My VM is now showing that an Update is Required for Integrated Services. The VM is running Windows Server 2012 R2. The Network adapter for the VM shows Degraded (Integrated Services Update Required), so no internet on the VM.
If I start the VM, and click Action - Insert Integration Services Setup Disk I get an error 'Failed to add device 'Virtual CD/DVD Disk' vmguest.iso not found. I have read that vmguest.iso is no longer in 2016 Hyper-V Server. How do I get this working again? All services appear to be running on both the host and guest.
At a complete loss.
Thanks.

We are pleased to announce the availability of Linux Integration Services (LIS) 4.1.2. This point release of the LIS download expands supported releases to Red Hat Enterprise Linux, CentOS, and Oracle Linux with Red Hat Compatible Kernel 6.8. This release also includes upstream bug fixes and performance improvements not included in previous LIS downloads.

See the separate PDF file “Linux Integration Services v4-1c.pdf” for more information.

Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016/2019 version of Hyper-V now come with built-in support for Hyper-V Integration Services, as they automatically get pushed to guest VM's. In older versions of Hyper-V, you should see an option to Insert Integration Services Setup Disk. Nov 19, 2020 Editor’s Note: Updated to reflect changes with the Hyper-V Linux Integration Services 4.3 release. Microsoft developers have designed components that help in improving the performance of virtual machines running on Hyper-V Server. These components are designed as part of the Hyper-V Integration Services. While the Hyper-V Server is intelligent enough to install and activate Integration. Oct 22, 2016 Thank you for the link. Meanwhile I got the vmguest.iso from an official download from Microsoft, contained in some software, whose name I unfortunately no longer know. I found the tip in another forum and the integration services work wonderfully with my XP in Hyper-V together (time synchronization, mouse). Even though this issue has only been observed in Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, the update also applies to Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 SP1. Important If you install a language pack after you install this update, you must reinstall this update. Therefore, we recommend that you install any language packs.
