What Do I Do If an ECS Created from a Windows Image Failed to Start When I Have Enabled Automatic Configuration During Image Registration?

Symptom

This issue is probably caused by the failure of offline VirtIO driver injection.

Solution

When you inject VirtIO drivers for a Windows ECS offline, there are some restrictions:

  • If the boot mode in the image file is UEFI, the VirtIO drivers cannot be injected offline.
  • It is recommended that you disable Group Policy Object (GPO). Some policies may cause the failure of VirtIO driver injection offline.
  • It is recommended that you stop antivirus software. Otherwise, the VirtIO drivers may fail to be injected offline.

To update VirtIO drivers, see Optimizing a Windows Private Image.
