6.3.8 Create a Parent Virtual Machine
You installed Hyper-V on the CorpServer server. You are experimenting with virtual hard disks. You plan to run several instances of Windows Server 2016 as virtual machines. Because these virtual machines will use a similar configuration, you are considering using differencing disks to conserve disk space.
In this lab, your task is to perform the following:
Create a virtual hard disk using the following parameters:
Virtual hard disk name: ParentDisk.vhdx
Location: D:\HYPERV\Virtual Hard Disks\ParentDisk.vhdxDisk
type: FixedSize: 50 GB
Create the parent virtual machine using the following parameters:
Virtual machine name: ServerParent
Location: D:\HYPERV\
Generation: Generation 1Startup
Memory: 2048 MB
Network: Not Connected
Configure the virtual hard disk to use the image file D:\ISOs\en_windows_server_2016_x64_dvd.iso
