Updating tools results in hanging at uefi upon reboot. Has to be power cycled to then boot to Windows Server | Nutanix Community
Skip to main content

SCSI disk 100gb, 16gb mem, Server 2016 standard desktop experience, dual xeon icelake

Likely other configurations, as this has happened with multiple VMs, still collecting data, but wanted to get something started in case others have experience with this.

My first thought is obviously some uefi configuration with boot order or something, but doesn’t really make sense, since it only *seems to happen* right after tool updates.

 

*updated as it’s not like we reboot often, maybe it will happen without updating as well.

Okay it won’t let me edit now, so adding this here:

This makes it seem like it might be a lingering issue, maybe there’s a workaround? https://www.reddit.com/r/nutanix/comments/b1j0n1

 

Editing Again: This newer topic seems plausible. We are not on that newest version. https://www.reddit.com/r/nutanix/comments/1ifr6ul/win_server_reboots_hung_at_nx_boot_screen/
