Upgrade virtual machine configuration version in Hyper-V on Windows Server

Error Message Encountered:

The configuration version for VM <VM name> is out-of-date

Explanation:

The Hyper-V plugin implements the built-in Resilient Change Tracking (RCT) technology available in Hyper-V starting with Windows Server 2016. RCT is used during backups for changed block tracking capabilities of virtual machines disks.

Virtual machine backup operations with RCT require the Hyper-V virtual machine’s configuration version to be 8.0.

Resolution:

The virtual machines configuration version needs to be upgraded in order to be compatible with Windows Server Hyper-V Resilient Change Tracking (RCT)."
