Virtual Server auto-shutdown

My virtual server auto-shutdown and I don't know why
Google and found this
hyper-v virtual server will sometime auto shutdown unexpected without any error or massage.

Virtual server auto shutdown maybe because Windows 2008 evaluation expired.

I try the instruction in this page to extend the evaluation period
How to extend the Windows Server 2008 evaluation period

slmgr.vbs -dli to check current window evaluation status.
slmgr.vbs –rearm, to reset evaluation period to 60 days

After I reset evaluation and restart virtual server, I rerun slmgr.vbs -dli to check the status again
It ONLY extend 10 days !
