Disk (E:) Missing in Virtual Machine

Tuesday, March 15, 2016

I encountered an issue with my VM today where when I wanted to open an application console (Configurations Manager Console), the icon and everything were missing. I even tried to basically double-click on the menu with the missing icon, but nothing happened. So i checked the partition and found out that there was only system disk available which is (C:). And i know that all the application files and configurations are all in separate disk.

I looked at the VM setting in the Hyper-V Manager and things just looked good. So i continued checking on the Disk Management and saw that the (E:) disk was offline. What i did was then right-clicked, and select Online and afterward rebooted the VM.

When the VM was up again, now i could find all the disks that are supposed to be there and the Configurations Manager application is running fine.

To wrap it up, one of the things to be done when you encounter this kind of issue, try to look into Computer Management -> Disk Management and check if all the disks are online or offline.

That's all.
