Lab Scenario
A. Datum Corporation is continuing with its
pilot virtualization project. You have
deployed
the virtualization hosts by installing Hyper-V
on Windows Server 2012 R2 in one of the
subsidiaries. The next step is to deploy
virtual machines on these hosts.
Because the virtualization platform is new
to A. Datum, you need to spend some time
familiarizing yourself with the Hyper-V
features and components. To do this, you
decide to deploy and evaluate different
Lab Review
Can you attach a disk directly to a virtual
machine only if that disk is attached locally
to a Hyper-V host?
How can you use a virtual hard disk with the
installed operating system as a template for
new virtual machines?
How can you prevent a virtual machine from
monopolizing disk I/O when a disk-intensive
application is running on a virtual machine?
What are the requirements for virtual

More than 40 different types of issues detected, such

Copy an entire disk, not a volume or partition

Because the virtualization platform is new to A.
Datum,
you need to spend some time becoming familiar with
Hyper-V features and components, including
checkpoints.
As the pilot project continues, you will need to be
able
to monitor server performance to ensure that virtual
machines are configured properly. For now, you will
familiarize yourself with the monitoring tools that are
Lab Review
Can you use enhanced session mode to
connect to all virtual machines?
Can you export a checkpoint while a virtual
machine is running?
Can you use checkpoints in a production
environment?
Which Windows Server 2012 R2 tool should
you use for monitoring Hyper-V hosts and
virtual machines?
How can you enable resource metering for
