Issues that are fixed
-
VM cross cluster migration fails intermittently when SOFS file share is used as shared storage.
-

-

-

-
Port mirroring information configured by SDN gets cleared by SCVMM.
-

-
Replication health status is displayed incorrectly in VMM with respect to Hyper-V replication health status.
-
VMM to SCOM Integration fails to discover some objects like Host due to DiscoveryDataInvalidRelationshipSourceException in one or more Connectors for VSwitchHostsVPort relationship.
