Hi Neil, I'll test Windows Server 2012 R2 again with IDE and VirtIO disks (and e1000 and VirtIO network cards) with VirtIO-drivers from RHEL channel and drivers bundles with spice guest agent and will let you know the results. Please keep in mind that it will take some time... Btw, I will use Windows 2012 R2 english, 180-days trial... Regards, René On 05/28/2014 01:11 PM, Neil wrote:
Hi guys,
Is anyone able to assist here? I still can't install 2012 R2, whether I use IDE, virtio, or virtio-scsi, I don't see a drive during the first install.
I've tried the "virtio-win-1.6.8/vioserial/2k12R2/amd64" as a test and this also doesn't work, so it doesn't seem like a driver issue, more of a cluster issue.
I've also tried changing my Datacenter compatibility and Cluster to 3.4, but this seemed to make no difference. Both my hosts are upgraded to Centos 6.5 all updates, as well as my ovirt and VDSM is updated to the latest stable 3.4 packages.
I'm at a loss here, but desperately need to get this R2 installed.
Further to what Paul mentioned below, this was upgraded from 3.1 so it doesn't just appear to happen to new 3.4 installs.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi guys,
Thanks for the replies.
What's strange is that even when choosing an IDE disk I don't see any hard drive showing up when I try to install 2012R2, is this normal? I can understand why R2 won't see the virtio scsi disk, but to me it should be showing up when using IDE, or am I wrong here?
I see that in the virtio drivers from RHEL supplementary there is a folder "virtio-win-1.6.8/vioserial/2k12R2/amd64" but the license seems to indicate that you need a valid subscription in order to use these drivers... if this is true then is no one using server 2012 R2 on oVirt without a valid subscription?
I see with the drivers from "http://alt.fedoraproject.org/pub/alt/virtio-win/latest/images/src/" there is only a Win8 driver, and trying to use this on my 2012 R2 doesn't find a matching driver.
Can anyone clarify this from Redhat? If you using RHEV, presumably you can use R2, but it seems using oVirt you aren't allowed to?
Thanks.
Regards.
Neil Wilson.

Hi guys: Please do not just say your one is working it is helpless in fact there already some guys reported issues in Win platform (including me) and there is no way to report that, do your think paid version in Redhat would be the same or the client will already fxxked. I noted this seems occured only in newly installed ovirt and old installation is fine.

Hi guys,
I've been trying to install 2012 R2 onto my ovirt 3.4 but no matter what I do, it either doesn't find an IDE drive or a Virtio drive (when using the virtio ISO).

Is there a special trick to get this working, or could something be wrong? When it comes to creating a guest I don't see a Server 2012 R2 64bit in the drop down list?
Thanks.
