 <\/p>\n

After an unpretty Hyper-V cluster failover, several machines in our Xen Desktop deployment were showing an \u201cunknown\u201d power state.  After a call to Citrix, they gave my coworker a few commands to use to fix it. <\/p>\n

This has to be done from the Xen Desktop controller:<\/p>\n

Load the Citrix PSSnapIn:<\/p>\n

\n

Add-PSSnapIn Citrix.*<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This gets information from VMM about all of the VMs in VMM:<\/p>\n

\n

Cd XDHyp:\\
Get-ChildItem -recurse | Out-File \u2013Filepath c:\\xdhyp.txt<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This command gets all of the machines that are PowerState Unknown in Xen Destkop:<\/p>\n

\n

Get-BrokerMachine -PowerState Unknown<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The problem is that the \u201cId\u201d from the first command doesn\u2019t match the \u201cHostedMachineId\u201d from the second command.  To fix this, you run this command with the correct domain and machine name from the second command and the  \u201cId\u201d from the first command:<\/p>\n

\n

Set-BrokerMachine -MachineName <MyDomain\\MyMachine> -HostedMachineId <Id><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

You have a lot of machines where this is a problem, it could take a while to go through and match these up.  To save some time with the 75 or so we had to do, created this script to do it:<\/p>\n
