I have a VM running Server 2012. Today I accidentally selected shutdown while on the server (not from the portal).
When I restarted the machine, it went to a Running state but I could not RDP into it.
I tried shutdown - then start. Still no access even though it went to running.
I then tried the resize trick - still no access.
The dashboard shows a bit of CPU and disk activity initially. After 10 minutes or so it says it can't receive metrics due to an internal server error.
What can I do? Is it possible to bring the VHD over locally and try to start it under Hyper-V?
