Hi All,
I have scoured the internet in every way I can think of and I can't seem to find a solution, though I can find people discussing the exact same problem. Here is the basic issue. We recently migrated all of our VM's (some of them Linux, all CentOS 6.5) to a 2012R2 Hyper-V cluster (previously 2008R2). When we did this we started seeing the following error in the event logs for the Linux VM's:
Networking driver in VMGUESTNAME loaded but has a different version from the server. Server version 5.0 Client version 3.2 (Virtual machine ID 8FC4BE8B-0430-47FC-AE83-5E03829D2DF2). The device will work, but this is an unsupported configuration. This means that technical support will not be provided until this problem is resolved. To fix this problem, upgrade the integration services. To upgrade, connect to the virtual machine and select Insert Integration Services Setup Disk from the Action menu.
The reason for this, as far as I can tell is that WHILE LIS (Linux Integration Services) is built into CentOS 6.5 it is version 3.1 of the LIS, NOT the latest version of LIS, 3.5.
Unfortunately, the latest ISO Microsoft supplies of LIS contains no folder with an upgrade script intended for CentOS 6.4 or 6.5. How are you supposed to upgrade the LIS in CentOS 6.4-6.5 to the latest version? Will the upgrade script for the version on the ISO intended for CentOS 6.3 work?
