Figure 7.
Note
If you plan to use VSS-based snapshots for backup purposes, create a blank, empty
Virtual Disk Group for the snapshot repositories. This process requires second-
generation firmware. Creating a blank and empty Virtual Disk Group improves
performance, because the snapshot access is separate from other data access.
2. Map the newly created virtual disks to the Hyper-V parent server.
3. Go to Computer Management, and select Disk Management under the Storage section in
the left pane.
4. Right-click all of the new drives, and select the Online option.
5. Initialize all of the new drives.
6. Create the partitions, and format the new drives.
For easy reference, name the test drives in Windows with the same names as they were
given in the MD Storage Manager.
7. Set up the first VM by going back to the Roles option and selecting Hyper-V Role.
8. Click the right pane, and select New to start the Virtual Machine Wizard.
