Description
XenDesktop Setup Wizard completes without error, but no VM has been created in Hyper-V SCVMM.
And there's no particular error messages from CDF trace either.
Resolution
[Solution#1]
Grant access permission to both PVS user and Soap server account on VMM Library Share.
And make sure PVS server have direct access to the storage device to facilitate communication. The PVS user must have read\write access to the storage device to ensure successful provisioning with the HDD BDM.
[Solution#2]
Please follow CTX210930 to correct hosting connection and add each host under its own dedicated connection, even though all those connections were identical and all point back to the same SCVMM server.
After executed new-vm PowerShell command to create new vm, XDSW will run Get-SCLibraryShare command to get location of VMM Library Share, and try to copy necessary data(BDM template, writecache vhd(x), PvsGen2.cr etc.) into VMM Library Share.
If PVS user has no access permission on VMM Library Share folder, XDSW is not able to get location of VMM Library Share, then new VM will not be generated due to all necessary data is not available.
[Possible Cause#2]
If PVS and DDC are separated into different subnet, and there're multiple hosting resources have been added for the same SCVMM Connection within DDC server, XDSW does not work properly.
