How it works...

After upgrading to VMM 2016, you will need to re-associate the Hyper-V servers and VMM library servers with VMM. If a host needs to be re-associated, the Host Status column will exhibit Needs Attention and the Agent Status column will exhibit Access Denied.

Library agents are treated in the same way as host agents, and therefore, the same procedure needs to be followed for them. Re-associate the VMM library server using the same steps. To view a list of the VMM library servers, in the Fabric workspace, expand Servers, then click on Library Servers.

After re-association, all the agents will display the status Update Needed.
