Task 10

You need to configure Hyper-V to ensure that running virtual machines can be moved between SRV1 and SRV2 without downtime.

You do NOT need to move any virtual machines at this time.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

One possible solution to configure Hyper-V to ensure that running virtual machines can be moved between SRV1 and SRV2 without downtime is to use Live Migration. Live Migration is a feature of Hyper-V that allows you to move a running virtual machine from one host to another without any noticeable interruption of service. To set up Live Migration between SRV1 and SRV2, you need to perform the following steps:

On both SRV1 and SRV2, openHyper-V Managerfrom theAdministrative Toolsmenu or by typingvirtmgmt.mscin the Run box.

In the left pane, right-click on the name of the server and selectHyper-V Settings.

In theHyper-V Settingsdialog box, selectLive Migrationsin the navigation pane.

Check the boxEnable incoming and outgoing live migrations.

UnderAuthentication protocol, select the method that you want to use to authenticate the live migration traffic between the servers. You can choose eitherKerberosorCredSSP. Kerberos does not require you to sign in to the source server before starting a live migration, but it requires you to configure constrained delegation on the domain controller. CredSSP does not require you to configure constrained delegation, but it requires you to sign in to the source server through a local console session, a Remote Desktop session, or a remote Windows PowerShell session. For more information on how to configure constrained delegation, seeConfigure constrained delegation.

UnderPerformance options, select the option that best suits your network configuration and performance requirements. You can choose eitherTCP/IPorCompressionorSMB. TCP/IP uses a single TCP connection for the live migration traffic. Compression uses multiple TCP connections and compresses the live migration traffic to reduce the migration time and network bandwidth usage. SMB uses the Server Message Block (SMB) 3.0 protocol and can leverage SMB features such as SMB Multichannel and SMB Direct. For more information on how to choose the best performance option, seeChoose a live migration performance option.

UnderAdvanced Features, you can optionally enable theUse any available network for live migrationoption, which allows Hyper-V to use any available network adapter on the source and destination servers for live migration. If you do not enable this option, you need to specify one or more network adapters to be used for live migration by clicking on theAddbutton and selecting the network adapter from the list. You can also change the order of preference by using theMove UpandMove Downbuttons.

ClickOKto apply the settings.

Now, you have configured Hyper-V to enable live migration between SRV1 and SRV2. You can use Hyper-V Manager or Windows PowerShell to initiate a live migration of a running virtual machine from one server to another.

I bet the person who wrote this question has never tried to move a VM without downtime. It's like a dance, but with servers instead of dancers.

Ah, the joys of live migration! Gotta keep those VMs moving, even if the servers are standing still.
