RPC Server is unavailable | NLB ARR Hyper-V VM

U

UserSN

I've recently deployed Hyper-V into my hosting infrastructure and i'm trying to setup windows network load balancing and ARR so that i can have 2 VM web servers that are load balanced by 2 ARR servers running NLB.

I have the following setup:

2 Physical Host Machines IE; Host1, Host2

Then the following VM's are split 1 on each host for redundancy.

2 Hyper-V VM's ARR1, ARR2; both with NLB installed

2 Hyper-V VM's WEB1, WEB2

2 Hyper-V VM 's DC1, DC2 (Domain Controllers)

Note* I have all my Hyper-V VM's connected to the domain, but my host machines are not on the domain, not sure if this makes any difference

I've successfully installed NLB on both ARR1 & ARR2 and setup a cluster on a shared IP on ARR1.

I have 1 NIC for ARR1 & 1 NIC for ARR2 i've setup the cluster in MultiCast mode and was able to initially connect both ARR1 and ARR2 into the cluster.

Now when i launch NLB manager I'm getting errors and the machines dont see eachother even though i can ping them. I get The RPC Server is unavailable on the specified computer. Error connecting to "ARR1.mydomain.local"
