Sharepoint 2010 Access Denied +SP on Hyper-V

A. Access Denied

PROBLEM: Sharepoint 2010 Access Denied
FIX: Delete Domain Account and then recreate.

I’ve recently migrated a Sharepoint Server 2010 from a Dell Poweredge 2850 to Hyper-V.  Everything works fine except one subsite keeps getting “Access Denied”.  I’ve read a lot of documentation and blogs but none of them provided the solution to the problem.

I’ve narrowed down the issue to a specific user and I can repeat the problem over and over.

After several trial and error and no fix in sight, I tried deleting the account in the Active directory and then recreate it and the account started working. 

 

B. Sharepoint 2010 Migration from Physical to Virtual [Hyper-V] [view P2V Toolkit]
I’ve been testing Sharepoint 2010 for over a year now using a Dell Poweredge 2850 2U Rack Server.  I have a 24U rack in my home office that I utilized for testing and recently, the demand to quite down the office area and reduce the amount of heat generated has become my primary objective lately.  This week I finally able to do it without issues [except the access denied mentioned above]

Benefits:
1. One Server running
2. Less Noise
3. Less Heat
4. Backup/Restore of .vhd is simpler
5. I can use the PE2850 for other tests.
