Hyper-V version numbers are not compatible with the encoding in virParseVersionString(): https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/blob/master/src/util/virutil.c#L246 For example, the Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V version is 10.0.14393: its micro is over 14 times larger than the encoding allows. This commit repacks the Hyper-V version number in order to preserve all of the digits. The major and minor are concatenated (with minor zero- padded to two digits) to form the repacked major value. This works because Microsoft's major and minor versions numbers are unlikely to exceed 99. The repacked minor value is derived from the digits in the thousands, ten-thousands, and hundred-thousands places of Hyper-V's micro. The repacked micro is derived from the digits in the ones, tens, and hundreds places of Hyper-V's micro.

<h1>Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor driver</h1>
|
|
<ul id="toc"></ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The libvirt Microsoft Hyper-V driver can manage Hyper-V 2008 R2 and newer.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2><a id="project">Project Links</a></h2>

<h2><a id="uri">Connections to the Microsoft Hyper-V driver</a></h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Some example remote connection URIs for the driver are:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
hyperv://example-hyperv.com (over HTTPS)
|
|
hyperv://example-hyperv.com/?transport=http (over HTTP)
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Note</strong>: In contrast to other drivers, the Hyper-V driver
|
|
is a client-side-only driver. It connects to the Hyper-V server using
|
|
WS-Management over HTTP(S). Therefore, the
|
|
<a href="remote.html">remote transport mechanism</a> provided by the
|
|
remote driver and libvirtd will not work, and you cannot use URIs like
|
|
<code>hyperv+ssh://example.com</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h3><a id="uriformat">URI Format</a></h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
URIs have this general form (<code>[...]</code> marks an optional part).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
hyperv://[username@]hostname[:port]/[?extraparameters]
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The default HTTPS ports is 5986. If the port parameter is given, it
|
|
overrides the default port.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h4><a id="extraparams">Extra parameters</a></h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Extra parameters can be added to a URI as part of the query string
|
|
(the part following <code>?</code>). A single parameter is formed by a
|
|
<code>name=value</code> pair. Multiple parameters are separated by
|
|
<code>&</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
?transport=http
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The driver understands the extra parameters shown below.

<h3><a id="auth">Authentication</a></h3>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In order to perform any useful operation the driver needs to log into
|
|
the Hyper-V server. Therefore, only <code>virConnectOpenAuth</code> can
|
|
be used to connect to an Hyper-V server, <code>virConnectOpen</code> and
|
|
<code>virConnectOpenReadOnly</code> don't work.
|
|
To log into an Hyper-V server the driver will request credentials using
|
|
the callback passed to the <code>virConnectOpenAuth</code> function.
|
|
The driver passes the hostname as challenge parameter to the callback.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<strong>Note</strong>: Currently only <code>Basic</code> authentication
|
|
is supported by libvirt. This method is disabled by default on the
|
|
Hyper-V server and can be enabled via the WinRM commandline tool.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
winrm set winrm/config/service/auth @{Basic="true"}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>
|
|
To allow <code>Basic</code> authentication with HTTP transport WinRM
|
|
needs to allow unencrypted communication. This can be enabled via the
|
|
WinRM commandline tool. However, this is not the recommended
|
|
communication mode.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
winrm set winrm/config/service @{AllowUnencrypted="true"}
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2><a id="versions">Version Numbers</a></h2>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Since Microsoft's build numbers are almost always over 1000, this driver
|
|
needs to pack the value differently compared to the format defined by
|
|
<code>virConnectGetVersion</code>.
|
|
To preserve all of the digits, the following format is used:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<pre>major * 100000000 + minor * 1000000 + micro</pre>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This results in <code>virsh version</code> producing unexpected output.
