I have successfully exported a hyper-v guest to another machine. However, when I try to create a snapshot for the guest on the new host I got Generel access denied error.

It works flawless for my other hyper-v guests that I also have exported from another host.

Any ideas?

This MS KB might help at least the last part as you moved the VM so perhaps the ntfs rights need to be fixed.

I tried that.

Migrated the virtual server to windows server 2008 and solved the problem.
