Hyper-v Eventviewer error 16050 every one minute - but there is available space.


hi,

i have hyperv-1 host running on windows 2008. 2 virtual machines on it. 

one of virtual machines has 3 vhds allocated it. fixed size. on own virtual partition. , each 900mb left on virtual partition , 1 400mb left. 

this has not been problem (as far can tell) years. however, yesterday moved virtual machine (not one) file , reconfigured of virtual partition space (not disk above vhds are) , point hyper-v began issuing error 16050: running low on disk space on drive h. error is occurring once per minute.

 

my question is:

1) first how free space there need be? vhd file 36gb in fixed size, 900 mb left on partition residing on.

2) why sudden error when no changes had been made vm? (though made vm - not share partition space vhds). thought may hyper-v host glitch, rebooted host machine, no change.  is else causing error? new not sure should for.

it odd issuing error 1 vhd , not three, vhd's attached vm have same amount (or less 1 of them 400mb) of free space partition on.

i move vhd different (much larger) partition - hesitant create more problems, error seems odd; though @ point not seem have choice. update question if doing resolves issue. 

if have input please let me know. thank you.

hi!

"if free space falls under 2 gigabyte start log warning messages in event log.  if free space falls under 200 megabyte pause virtual machine , mark “paused-critical”.
