Top Features in Hyper-V 2012
• Storage improvements• Dynamic Memory• Hyper-V Replica• VM Mobility• New and Improved Networking Capabilities
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
Storage Migration
• Enables Storage Load Balancing• No downtime servicing• Leverages Hyper-V Offloaded

Storage on SMB 3.0 file shares
Hyper-v can store the following on SMB 3.0 file shares:• Configuration files• Virtual hard disk files (in VHD and/or VHDX format)• Snapshot files
SMB 3.0 is available in Windows Server 2012 only
Virtual Fibre Channel support
With this Hyper-V virtual Fibre Channel feature, you can connect to Fibre Channel storage from within a virtual machine. This allows you to use your existing Fibre Channel investments to support virtualized workloads. Support for Fibre Channel in Hyper-V guests also includes support for many related features, such as virtual SANs, live migration, and MPIO.
New Virtual Hard Disk format
• Up to 64 TB per VHDX• Protection against data corruption• Improved alignment when deployed to a large sector disk• Larger block size for Dynamic and Differencing disks (4KB logical
sectors) - Better performance
Dynamic Memory
• Startup VS Minimum – peaks during boot• Second-level paging – additional memory during reboots
Introducing Hyper-V Replica
• Disaster Recover 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
No requirements!!!All you need is two connected 2012 Hyper-V servers
Move VM’s anywhere. Anytime. Live!• Live Migration with High Availability• SMB Live Migration• Live Storage Migration• Share noting Live Migration• Multiple concurrent migrations
Networking in Hyper-V 2012
• QOS - Minimum and Maximum bandwidth• Dynamic Virtual Machine Queue (VMQ) • DHCP and Router guard• Extensible Switching• NIC Teaming
• Up to 32 NIC’s in a single team• Team NIC’s from different manufactures
Top Features in Virtual Machine Manager 2012
• Improved Fabric Management• Service Management Provisioning• Clouds management – Private and Public

Storage and Network management
Citrix XenServer Hosts and Clusters
Physical Servers
• Manage multiple hypervisors – Hyper-V, VMware, Xen
• Server hardware management – IPMI, DCMI, SMASH, Custom via Provider
• Host provisioning – from bare metal to Hyper-V to Cluster provisioning
Networking
• Define Logical Networks using VLANs and Subnets per datacenter location
• Address management for Static IPs, Load Balancer VIPs and MAC addresses
• Automated provisioning of Load Balancers via Provider (F5 and Citrix)
Storage
• Storage Management using SMI-S (Netapp, HP, EMC)
• Discover storage arrays and pools
• Classify storage based on throughput and capabilities
• Discover or configure LUNs and assign to hosts and clusters
• Rapid provisioning of VMs using snapshot cloning of LUNs
Fabric Management
Fabric ManagementUpdate Management of Fabric Servers
• Update operation control (on-demand scan and on-demand remediation)
• Updating a Hyper-V cluster is fully automated/orchestrated
• Integrated with Windows Server Update Server
Dynamic Optimization (DO)
• Cluster level workload balancing scheme to optimize VM performance
• Leverages live migration to move workloads
Power Optimization (PO)
• Powers down servers to optimize power utilization
• Leverages live migration to pack more VMs per host
Services Management
Private Cloud Management
• Defines a collection of resources that can be assigned to users or groups
• Composed of a Fabric and Services
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
