Manually cleaning up virtual machines
In Microsoft Failover Cluster environments, the Resync operation may fail in the first step to cleanup the virtual machine residue. You can manually cleanup the virtual machine residue and re-initiate the Resync operation.
To manually cleanup virtual machines
- Logon into the Hypervisor console.
- Open the Failover Cluster Manager snap-in.
- Select Roles in the tree view.
- Select the appropriate virtual machine resources that were configured to the resiliency group on which you want to perform the Resync operation.
Remove the Resources.
- Open Hyper-V Manager and delete the virtual machines that were added to the Resiliency Group on which you want to perform the Resync operation.
