EVENT ID 32088 for all VMs After running out of disk space on the Replica host server, all VMs stopped replicating.  Replication cannot simply be started by right clicking on the source VM and selecting Resume Replication. No console error message just the event log event 32088.  I considered removing replication and re-replicating but this seemed an awful lot of work for simple problem. Tried stopping the Hyper-V service on the replica host and restarting, but this also did not work. THE FIX 1. Go to the destination replica server, right click each VM and select Resume Replication.  2. Now you can go to the source server, right click each VM and select Resume Replication. For some strange reason this works. Just trying one end or the other will fail without a console error message (but shows in the event log).

Virtual Machine failed to start worker process: Incorrect function. (0x80070001) Configuration Hyper-v Server 2012 with 4 VMs. One VM running the others would not start. Error message popup when starting VM. Further in the event logs "The authorization store could not be initialized from storage location". Cause An earlier test restore had replaced the key entry with a now redundant location. Solution Edit registry key as below [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Virtualization] Problem Key shows an invalid location: "StoreLocation"="msxml://D:\\Restore Test\\Host Component\\C_\\ProgramData\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Hyper-V\\InitialStore.xml" Change key to correct location: "StoreLocation"="msxml://C:\\ProgramData\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Hyper-V\\InitialStore.xml" Then restart Virtual Machine Service from Hyper-V console
