Warnings Due To VM Config Version

Reference:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/virtualization/hyper-v/deploy/upgrade-virtual-machine-version-in-hyper-v-on-windows-or-windows-server

Step 1: Check the virtual machine configuration versions

1. On the Windows desktop, click the Start button and type any part of the name Windows PowerShell.
2. Right-click Windows PowerShell and select Run as Administrator.
3. Use the Get-VMcmdlet. Run the following command to get the versions of your virtual machines.

Get-VM * | Format-Table Name, Version

You can also see the configuration version in Hyper-V Manager by selecting the virtual machine and looking at the Summary tab.

Step 2: Upgrade the virtual machine configuration version

1. Shut down the virtual machine in Hyper-V Manager.
2. Select Action > Upgrade Configuration Version. If this option isn't available for the virtual machine, then it's already at the highest configuration version supported by the Hyper-V host.

To upgrade the virtual machine configuration version by using Windows PowerShell, use the Update-VMVersion cmdlet. Run the following command where vmname is the name of the virtual machine.

Update-VMVersion <vmname>

Supported virtual machine configuration versions

Run the PowerShell cmdlet Get-VMHostSupportedVersion to see what virtual machine configuration versions your Hyper-V Host supports. When you create a virtual machine, it's created with the default configuration version. To see what the default is, run the following command.

Get-VMHostSupportedVersion -Default
