Description
Virtualization has become an essential tool for modern computing, enabling multiple virtual machines (VMs) to operate on a single physical machine. Hyper-V, Microsoft's virtualization platform for Windows, is widely used to create and manage VMs. To ensure optimal performance of your Hyper-V environment, it's crucial to select a reliable and high-performance storage solution for your VMs. In this article, we will explore the process of configuring Hyper-V to use SupremeRAID RAID as a datastore for your virtual machines.
Resolution
Step 1: Open the SupremeRAID command line interface and create the Physical Drive (PD), Drive Group (DG), and Virtual Drive (VD)by following the prompts.
Step 2: Check the device path to ensure that the Virtual Drive is created successfully.
Step 3: Format the Virtual Drive and create a Windows volume by following the prompts.
Step 4:
Open the Hyper-V console and create a new virtual machine by following the prompts.
Step 5: When creating the virtual machine, select the SupremeRAID volume as the datastore location for the virtual machine.
Step 6: Configure the virtual machine settings according to your preferences, such as the amount of memory, network settings, and other options.
Step 7: If you chose the Hyper-V's VM generation as Generation 2, you need to disable the "Security boot" in the firmware settings to install other OS ISO. (Option)
Step 8: Start to use the Hyper-V VM with SupremeRAID's RAID array
Start the virtual machine and start using it with the SupremeRAID RAID array as the datastore.
By following these steps, you can configure Hyper-V with SupremeRAID RAID as a datastore for your virtual machines, enabling you to benefit from a high-performance, reliable, and efficient storage solution.
