Use the Disk Management MMC on the VM to extend the current disk to the new fixed-size disk.ī. Create a new fixed-size disk on the new drive. You have installed a new 500 GB hard disk on the host and want to make sure the VM doesn't contend for the host's system disk, and the expansion process doesn't hamper disk performance. You also have plans to install at least one more VM. You have noticed disk contention with the host OS, and the constant need for the virtual disk to expand is causing performance problems. You have only about 30 GB free space on the host disk.
The VM's virtual disk has a maximum size of 200 GB and is currently 80 GB and growing. Your Hyper-V server has a single disk of 300 GB being used as the system disk and to host a dynamically expanding disk for a Windows Server 2012 R2 VM. Carefully configure the guest OS to match the old server's configuration, and take the old server offline.ġ1. Install Windows Server 2012 R2 as the guest OS.
Use the resulting virtual hard disk file as the virtual disk for the new VM. On the old server, run a physical-to-virtual conversion. Set the disk offline and use it as a pass-through disk for the new VM.Ĭ.
Remove the hard disk from the old machine, and install it in the Hyper-V server. Remove the hard disk from the old server, and install it in the new server.ī. Which of the following might be a good solution for the ailing server that requires the least amount of cost and administrative effort?Ī. This quad core server has plenty of disk space and ample processing power and memory. You have been using a Hyper-V server for about a year, with two VMs running on it. You haven't been able to isolate the problem, but you suspect the hard disks are beginning to fail, and the server is no longer under warranty. You have an old server running Windows Server 2012 R2 that has had intermittent hardware failures in the past few months that cause the server to shut down.
