Execute the following command to turn the Windows Server 2008 Passthrough virtual machine off: change-state.ps1 -virtualhost core-01 -virtualguest "Windows Server 2008 Pass-through" -state disable 5. Change the boot order of a virtual machine. a. Execute the following command to change the boot order of the Windows Server 2008 Pass-through virtual machine: change-vmbootorder.ps1 -virtualhost core-01 -virtualguest "Windows Server 2008 Pass-through" -bootorder 0,1,2,3 b. Using Hyper-V Manager, verify that the startup order of the Windows Server 2008 Pass-through virtual machine is Floppy, CD, IDE, and then Legacy Network Adapter. c. Execute the following command to change the boot order of the Windows Server 2008 Pass-through virtual machine: change-vmbootorder.ps1 -virtualhost core-01 -virtualguest "Windows Server 2008 Pass-through" -bootorder 3,2,1,0 Microsoft Confidential - For Internal Use Only 23

Implementing Hyper-V FINAL d. Using Hyper-V Manager, verify that the startup order of the Windows Server 2008 Pass-through virtual machine is Legacy Network Adapter, IDE, CD, and then Floppy. 6. Create a virtual machine a. Change to the C:\Labfiles\Scripts folder in PowerShell and execute the following command to create a new virtual machine on CORE-01: create-vm core-01 NewScriptedVM b. Verify that a new virtual machine named NewScriptedVM was created on CORE-01. 7. Create a memory dump of a virtual machine. a. If it is not already started, start the Windows Vista SP1 Enterprise virtual machine on CORE-01. b. Execute the following command to manually force a memory dump of the virtual machine: Dumpvm s core-01 v Windows Vista SP1 Enterprise c. If the Vista SP1 virtual machine does not blue screen with a Stop 0x000000e2 exception, add a DWORD registry value named CrashOnCtrlScroll to the Vista SP1 machine and set it to 0x1. Add the value to HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\i8042prt\parameters. Reboot the Vista SP1 virtual machine and then try the script again. 24 2008 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

FINAL Lab Exercises - Lab: Implementing Hyper-V Exercise 10: Hyper-V Snapshots In this exercise, you will create snapshots and then apply snapshots to revert to a previous configuration (i.e. to undo changes to the virtual machine). Scenario A snapshot is a point-in-time picture of a virtual machines running state. Snapshots can be used to create checkpoints that allow you to quickly roll back a configuration change, or revert a VM to a previous state. Capturing snapshots is an important part of Hyper-V management and administration. Tasks 1. Create a Virtual Machine Snapshot a. Make sure the V_Server1 virtual machine is running on CORE-01. Click on V-Server1 in Hyper-V Manager, and then on the Action menu, click Snapshot. b. Click on the Snapshot that you just created above and then click Rename in Action menu. Rename the snapshot to First Snapshot No folder. c. Logon to the virtual machine V_Server1 running on CORE-01 using the administrator account and password. Create a new folder named New Folder 1on the desktop of the V_Server1 virtual machine. d. Use Hyper-v Manager to take another snapshot of the V_Server1 virtual machine. Rename the snapshot to Second Snapshot Folder 1. e. Repeat steps c and d two more times and create a third and fourth snapshot and a New Folder 2 and New Folder 3 on the desktop. Make sure to take a new snapshot after each folder is created. 2. Restore the VM from a snapshot a. In Hyper-V Manager, under Snapshots, click Second Snapshot Folder 1, and then in the Actions pane, click Apply. b. In the Apply Snapshot dialog box, click Apply. Note: The green arrow that indicates the active snapshot should move from Fourth Snapshot to the Second Snapshot. c. Switch to V_Server1 on CORE-01 and logon to this virtual machine. d. Verify that there is only one folder on the desktop of the virtual machine named New Folder 1. Microsoft Confidential - For Internal Use Only 25

Click Delete in the Delete Snapshot Tree dialog to confirm the deletion. g. Question/discussion: How many New Folders are on the desktop of the V_Server1 virtual machine after deleting the snapshot tree? Is this something you would expect? h. Answer: i. Close the V_Server1 on CORE-01 Virtual Machine Connection window. j. In Hyper-V Manager, click V_Server1 and then in the Actions pane, click Shut Down. k. If a message is displayed about forcing the shutdown, click Force to force the shutdown. 26 2008 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

FINAL Lab Exercises - Lab: Implementing Hyper-V Exercise 11: Export and Import Virtual Machines In this exercise, you will export a Windows Vista SP1 virtual machine from the ADMIN-01 server to a folder on the CORE-01 server. You will then import the exported virtual machine on the CORE-01 server. Scenario The Export/Import feature allows you to export a complete virtual machine, including all of its settings, to a folder and then import the virtual machine, and all of its settings, to another Hyper-V server. 1. Export a Windows Vista SP1 Virtual Machine e. Ensure you are logged on to ADMIN-01 as Contoso\Administrator using the password LS1setup!, and that you have Hyper-V Manager open. f. In Hyper-V Manager on ADMIN-01, click on Windows Vista SP1 Enterprise and then in the Actions pane, click on Export. g. In Export path, enter \\CORE-01\Labfiles\VM and then click Export. h. Verify that the Export process is proceeding by looking at the Operations column to the right of the Windows Vista SP1 Enterprise virtual machine. 2. Import a Windows Vista SP1 Virtual Machine a. When the Export is finished, click on CORE-01 in Hyper-V Manager and then in the Actions pane, click on Import Virtual Machine. b. In Import path, enter C:\Labfiles\VM\Windows Vista SP1 and then click Import. The virtual machine should import immediately and be displayed under Virtual Machines on CORE-01. c. Start the Windows Vista SP1 virtual machine on CORE-01 and logon as contoso\administrator. d. Question/discussion: After logging on to the Windows Vista SP1 Enterprise virtual machine, you will notice that the virtual machine does not have network connectivity to the host. What is the most likely cause of this problem? e. Answer: Microsoft Confidential - For Internal Use Only 27
