Martin Lucas explains what you need to know in order to expand virtual disks properly.

Another great post by Marc van Eijk in his series on bare metal deployment with SCVMM 2012 R2.


If you’re a fan of both PowerShell and Performance Monitor (of course you are!) then Martin Lucas has some useful information for you.Speaking of PowerShell, vNiklas has an updated version of his script for creating logical and virtual networks.Marc van Eijk not only highlights the complexity of over-engineering your bandwidth policies in a virtual environment but also provides you with nifty PowerShell to help you get the information you need.If you need to know how to automate the start of your VMs, Charles Joy has another, more intelligent, way of doing just that.Alvin Morales recognised this and provides a script for VMM to help you create network entities in the right order. Creating network entities in VMM 2012 isn’t always a walk in the park.I’ve only skimmed through it but the focus is on the technical side and is very hands-on. Kristian Nese and Flemming Riis have written a white paper about NVGRE.Ben Armstrong describes a scenario where an unplanned failover in Hyper-V Replica was the preferred method.I have something I can write about, I think, but work is getting in the way.
