[Iometer-user] iometer 1.1.0 on Windows Hyper-V Server 2012

[Marty O'B. <ma...@mi...>]

I have been trying to run iometer on several "Windows Hyper-V Server 2012" and "Windows Hyper-V Server 2012 R2" machines ("without the GUI", although it is really just stripped down), and, when running the .exe from the command line (either the 64bit or 32bit installed versions) it just returns to the command line with no error and no explanation. I don't see anything in Windows error logs, either. It is basically doing nothing that I can see.

I briefly looked through the code but it is quite a bit of programming and I thought it would be better to come here first and see if anyone can help. I've done quite a few hours worth of research on "the Google" and can't find anyone having similar issues, and even found a few articles that suggest using iometer on this type of setup.

The machines are relatively stock, save a few group policy settings and Zabbix monitoring agent.

Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this, or is it "simply won't run" on a "Core Edition" based Windows distribution?

My next option would probably be to try a linux live-cd, but that would be very inconvenient as I cannot afford the downtime on any of these servers.

Thanks, in advance, for any advice!!
