Hi.

I am running Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS (x64) on Hyper-V Server 2012 R2, but I am having trouble with daemons. When I open boot log, I see 3 fails.

root@lws:~# cat /var/log/boot.log | grep Hyper
 * Starting Hyper-V File Copy Protocol Daemon                                                [ OK ]
 * Starting Hyper-V VSS Protocol Daemon                                                      [ OK ]
 * Starting Hyper-V KVP Protocol Daemon                                                      [ OK ]

 * Stopping Hyper-V VSS Protocol Daemon                                                      [ OK ]
 * Starting Hyper-V KVP Protocol Daemon                                                      [fail]
 * Stopping Hyper-V KVP Protocol Daemon                                                      [ OK ]

What is wrong? How to solve it? I tried to install hv-kvp-daemon-init but nothing has changed.

Hi Lukas Beran,

As Bens suggestion, please refer the following KB to reinstall the integration service then monitor the issue again, both the 14.04 and the latest Ubuntu 15.04 are supported guest vm, the different is the 15.04 has more advance option you can choose, you can also get the details from the following KB:

Im glad to be of help to you!

I tried it on a clean install. What I've made:

1. Download Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS from http://www.ubuntu.com/server
2. Install it as a Gen1 from Hyper-V Manager
3. After the installation process apt-get update
4. apt-get dist-upgrade
5. reboot
6. apt-get update
7. apt-get install linux-virtual
8. reboot
9. apt-get update
10. apt-get install hv-kvp-daemon-init linux-tools-virtual linux-cloud-tools-virtual
11. reboot

For what it's worth...I am now getting the same. 14.04.3 LTS (x64) on Hyper-V Server 2012 R2. Identical setup, identical symptoms. The only difference it that I'm not runnign a virtual kernel....becuase I don't know how :-)
