Troubleshooting Tips – Fixed Windows Server 2019 cannot run Hyper-V cmdlets against Windows Server 2012 R2 #PowerShell #Hyper-V #Server 2019 #Reports #Mvphour

If you tried to run Hyper-V PowerShell script at Windows Server 2019 to get Hyper-V report from Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V host, you will get the error message “The Hyper-V module used in this Windows PowerShell session cannot be used for remote management of the server ‘XXX”. Load a compatible version of the Hyper-V module……..”

Today, I am going to show you how to fix it.

1. Login to the reporting server (Windows Server 2019).
2. Open Windows PowerShell.
3. Type following cmdlet.

   
   Get-Module -Name Hyper-V
   
   

4. It will show Hyper-V module version 2.0.0.0.

   

5. Type following cmdlets to remove existing Hyper-V module and then import different version of Hyper-V module.

   
   Remove-Module Hyper-V
   
   Import-Module Hyper-V -RequiredVersion 1.1
   
   Get-Module Hyper-V
   
   

   

6. Re-run PowerShell script again and it success with issues.
