5. Storage Improvements Disk Types Converting Disks Location Considerations of Virtual Hard Disks Storage on SMB 3 File Shares Fibre Channel Support in Hyper-V Storage Migration Demonstration: Managing Virtual Hard Disks in Hyper-V

6. Virtual Hard Disks in Hyper-V 2012 Windows Server 2012 introduces the new VHDX format for virtual hard disks, which: Supports bigger disks – Up to 64TB Protection against data corruption during power failures by logging updates to the VHDX metadata structures Supports better alignment when deployed to a large sector disk Allows larger block size for dynamic and differencing disks, which provides better performance – 4K cluster disks

7. Converting Disks You can perform the following maintenance operations on virtual hard disks: Convert the disk from fixed to dynamic Convert the disk from dynamic to fixed Convert a virtual hard disk in VHD format to VHDX Convert a virtual hard disk in VHDX format to VHD

8. Location Considerations of Virtual Hard Disks When planning the location of virtual hard disks, ensure the following: Virtual hard disk files are stored on a volume that is configured for redundancy Virtual hard disk files are stored on high-performance storage Virtual hard disk files configured for growth should be placed on volumes with adequate space

9. Storage on SMB 3 File Shares Hyper-V can store the following on SMB 3 files shares: Configuration files Vurtual hard disk files (in VHD and/or VHDX format) Snapshot files ** SMB 3 is available in Windows Server 2012 only, and not in earlier Windows Server versions

10. Fibre Channel Support in Hyper-V The Fiber Channel Adapter: Allows a virtual machine to directly connect to a Fiber Channel SAN Requires that the Hyper-V host has a Fiber Channel HBA Requires that the Fiber Channel HBA driver supports virtual Fibre Channel

11. Storage Migration Storage Migration technology enables you to move a virtual machine and its storage to another location without downtime. During migration the virtual machine hard drive is copied from one location to another Changes are written to both source and destination drive You can move virtual machine storage to same host, another host, or server message block share (SMB) Storage and virtual machine configuration can be in different locations

12. Live Storage Migration Enables Storage Load Balancing No downtime servicing Leverages Hyper-V Offloaded Data Transfer (ODX) Hyper-V Virtual Machine Source Device Destination Device VHD VHD Stack 1 2 3 4 5

15. What's New in Hyper-V Networking? NIC Teaming Performance and Acceleration Security

16. NIC Teaming We can connect up to 32 NICs in a single team. That’s a lot of bandwidth! NICs in a single team can be different models from the same manufacturer or even NICs from different manufacturers Multiple teaming modes: Generic/Static Teaming requires the switches to be configured for the team and isn’t dynamic LACP is self-discovering and enables dynamic expansion and reduction of the NICs in the team Switch independent works with just a single switch – switches have no knowledge of the team.

17. Performance and Acceleration Bandwidth Management allows you to easily reserve minimum or set maximums to provide QoS controls to manage to a service level agreement Dynamic Virtual Machine Queue (VMQ) uses hardware packet filtering to deliver packet data from an external virtual machine network directly to virtual machines to reduce the overhead of copying thru the Management OS IPsec Task Offload moves this workload from the main computer's CPU to a dedicated processor on the network adapter SR-IOV is a specification that allows a PCIe device to appear to be multiple separate physical PCIe devices

18. Security DHCP Guard is a security feature that drops DHCP server messages from unauthorized virtual machines pretending to be DHCP servers. Router Guard is a security feature that drops Router Advertisement and Redirection messages from unauthorized virtual machines pretending to be routers.

20. What's New in VM Mobility? NIC Teaming Performance and Acceleration Security Best Practices

21. Complete mobility. Simply the best. Live Migration with High Availability Live Migrate among servers in a failover cluster SMB Live Migration Live Migrate VMs among servers with SMB storage Live Storage Migration Live Migrate VM storage from one volume to another without downtime Share Nothing (SNO) Live Migration Live Migrate VMs among servers with nothing, but an Ethernet connection

22. Hyper-V Replica Disaster Recovery Scenarios: Planned, Unplanned and Test Failover Pre-configuration for IP settings for primary/remote location Key Features: RPO/RTO in minutes Seamless integration with Hyper-V and Clustering Automatically handles all VM mobility scenarios (e.g. Live migration) Supports heterogonous storage between primary and recovery Integrates with Volume Shadow Services (VSS)

23. Hyper-V Replica

24. Easy to Setup Via wizard Or, via PowerShell Works with your current hardware All you need is two connected servers running Windows Server 2012 No Guest Dependencies

36. Private Cloud Management Private Cloud Abstraction that enables opaque usage model for service and VM management Fabric Compute: Logical grouping of hosts or host clusters in host groups Storage: Storage Classifications, Pools, Providers and Arrays Network: Logical Networks, IP/MAC Address Pools, Load Balancers, VIP Templates Delegation - User Role Quota: Defines per-user limits on compute, memory, storage, number of VMs

37. Cloud Capacity Cloud can expose Aggregate capacity of underlying resources (vCPU, Memory, Storage) Oversubscription is allowed Dimensions of Capacity Number of CPUs Amount of Memory Type of and amount Storage Number of deployed VMs (VMs in Library are not counted)

38. Private Cloud Usage Scenario Configure the fabric (servers, network, storage) Create a cloud from the fabric Delegate the cloud to a Self Service User Self Service User creates VMs and Services in the cloud
