Hello,

we do not have any experience with the Hyper-V option in Windows.
As we have not made any tests up to now this option is officially not supported in combination with WinCC OA.

Hi,

Yes, once a time i installed WinCC OA on Hyper-V. I also tested Hyper-V Live-Migration, seamless migration of a WinCC OA Server from one hyper-v-server to another one - WinCC OA clients didn't lose connection to the server - worked pretty well...

But there is no support for that.

Hello,

is it planned that Hyper-V is offical supported with version WinCC OA 3.13? Actual we need this feature for an explicit tender. But also for common, virtualiziation is more and more demanded by customers.

Best regards
Eric

i don't think that it will be supported with 3.13. but if you use it and run into troubles then "all" you need to do is to reproduce the error on a (e.g. no virtualized) supported environment.

Hello,

Hyper-V is also not supported with the new version 3.13.
If you are using this functionality you do this on your own risk. Especially features like the Livemigration we have never tested and therefore we cannot guarantee that it will work in all use cases.

Which of the Hyper-V functions do you want to use?

If you have more detailed technical questions please get in contact with your common WinCC OA support.
