Preparing the fabric in VMM • Configuring host groups • create a host group structure; similar to node group in Windows HPC cluster. • Configuring the VMM library • file-based resources : virtual hard disks, ISO images, scripts, driver files • Non-file-based resources : VM, and service templates and profiles • Configuring networking • Static IP address pools • MAC address pools • Configuring storage
Storage resources in VMM • VMM require storage resources to meet computation requirements • Local storage represents the storage capacity available on a server. • Remote storage offloads work from the server to an external storage device. • Storage solution: • Block storage: VMM supports the use of block-level storage devices that expose LUNs (logic storage) • File storage: VMM supports the use of network shares of storage.
Adding Hyper-V hosts and host clusters to VMM • You can add the following types of servers as managed Hyper-V hosts in the complex network environment: • Windows Server computers or Windows Server failover clusters in an Active Directory domain that is trusted by the domain of the VMM management server • Windows Server computers or Windows Server failover clusters in an Active Directory domain that is untrusted by the domain of the VMM management server • Windows Server computers in a perimeter network or in a workgroup (stand-alone computers only) • Physical computers that do not have an operating system installed
Sample: add Windows server in a trusted active directory domain
