Recently I faced a issue while accessing the Nano Server through Remotely on Client side, where I installed a Nano Server and after that I Created a Nano Server VHD. After creating a VHD I got stucked on "PLEASE WAIT" Screen when I entered the valid Credentials but this screen never gone until I restarted the Server like i have shared in the below Screen Shot
I ran the following command to create a VHD
New-NanoServerImage -MediaPath G:\ -BasePath D:\NanoServer\ -TargetPath D:\NanoServerVHD\ -Compute -OEMDrivers -Clustering -ComputerName NanoServerER -AdministratorPassword ("Mcse2009" | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force)
Resolution :-
So I tried a lot of thing to make this issue resolved but i Failed, while trying to resolve this issue i tried to look again all the commands which i putted into PowerShell then i found that I used OEM drivers -designed for host installs-.I had created the VHD for use as a VM and used OEM drivers instead of guest drivers.I couldn't replicate it but when I built the VHD with Guest drivers it was successfully logged in immediately.
Resolution 2 :-
May b you will encounter a error like this where you are logging into server in 30 to 60 seconds it will let you log in but after this time limit it doesnt allow you to log in or may create issue while logging into server. Other than that connecting via PowerShell and correcting the IP setting and rebooting did work.
Thanks !!!
