Question Answer
! important ! Name 7 best practices on how to configure Hyper-V hosts - Provision the host with adequate hardware - Deploy VM's on seperate disks - Hyper-V should be the only server role installed - Manage Hyper-V remotely - Run Hyper-V in server core - Run the Best Practice Analyzer - Use Generation 2 VM's
How to provision the Hyper-V host with adequate hardware? - Provide enough RAM - Provide enough processing capacity - Provide fast storage - Designate a team of network adapters
Why should the host OS and the VM files be stored on seperate disks? - To ensure Host OS and VM's read/write operations don't conflict - The host OS volume can grow, without consuming space for the VM's
What storage technology can be used to increase performance for the VM's? Striping, for example RAID 1+0 array
How can you store multiple VM's on a LUN? By using Cluster Shared Volumes (CSV's)
It is recommended to only install the Hyper-V role on a server. But, if you do require other roles to be hosted on the same physical hardware, what should you do? Deploy the roles in VM's running on this hardware
Why do you not want to install different roles alongside the Hyper-V role on a host? Because this consumes resources which else could have been used by the Hyper-V role
Why do you want to manage Hyper-V remotely instead of locally? Because logging in locally to the server, your sessions consumes resources.
Why would you want to install Hyper-V on a Server Core? - The Server Core OS consumes less hardware resources, therefore, leaving more for the hosted VM's - The Server Core OS requires fewer updates, and therefore, fewer restarts
A Hyper-V host sometimes has to be restarted. What can you do to prevent the VM's from being down as well? Use a clustered Hyper-V environment. This allows you to fail over the VMs to a different host.
How can you determine the hardware resource utilization of a VM? Resource Metering This shows how VM's are using their resources
How can you identify configuration specific issues on a Hyper-V host? By running the Best Practice Analyzer
Name 5 features/functionalities that Generation 2 VM's provide in contract to Generation 1 VM's - PXE boot from a standard NIC (on a Gen1 VM this is only possible from a Legacy Network Adapter) - Hot Add/Removal of Virtual Network Adapters - SCSI controller boot from VHD and DVD - Secure Boot - Shielded VM's
