Windows Server 2012-R2, DataCenter Edition

Two boxes.

One has been rebooted, the other not yet.

Fully patched as of 11/13 (the unrebooted one) and 11/19 (the other one).

The first box was rebooted and none of the VMs booted up.  Manually
starting the service results in:

*>net start vmms*
The Hyper-V Virtual Machine Management service is starting.
The Hyper-V Virtual Machine Management service could not be started.

A system error has occurred.

System error 14 has occurred.

Not enough storage is available to complete this operation.

Uninstalled all patches for November.  No dice.
Removed and Reinstalled the Hyper-V role.   No dice.
Performed an in-place re-install of the OS.  No dice.
Re-applied all patches through last night.  No dice.
Multiple removals and reinstallations of the Hyper-V role.  No dice.

Due to this, I did not reboot the other box, but this morning I tried
restarting the VMMS service, and it generates the same error.  So the VMs
are running there, but if I reboot them or reboot the host, I'll have two
boxes in the same state.

Spent several hours looking at Process Monitor and Dependency Walker
looking for DLL/EXE mismatches, but cannot see anything that is useful.

One other piece of software was upgraded around the same time (11/12), but
disabling and uninstalling it hasn't changed anything.

Google has provided similar (and near similar) messages pertaining to
Hyper-V on 2008, but nothing on 2012 or 2012-R2.

I'm close to reinstalling the OS entirely and seeing if that helps, but I
don't know what is going to cause it to break again...

So, has anyone seen or heard of this problem?

Regards,






Reinstalled the OS over the existing install.
