- [Instructor] Virtualization helps
small and medium-sized businesses
consolidate and optimize resources,
reducing the costs of hardware, software licenses
and maintenance.

With Hyper-V, get the benefits of virtualization,
installing it on HP Proliant servers in less than 25 clicks.
Step one.
To create a virtual machine on Hyper-V,
we should access the Start Menu,
and in the search option we will type Hyper-V Manager
and we'll double-click on the outcome.
Note, with Windows Server 2019,
we can create a Generation 1, 32-bit
and Generation 2 64-bit for 12 machines.
For the activation of licenses of previous additions,
assistance directly from Microsoft is required.
Step two.
Once the Hyper-V Manager Administrator is opened,
we'll select the server where we're going to create
the virtual machine
and we'll double click on it.
When the menu options display, please click on New
and then on Virtual Machine.
Step three.
Once the new Virtual Machine Wizard has opened,
we recommend creating a virtual machine
with a customized configuration.
This can be done by clicking on the Next option
so you can start creating it.
You can also create a virtual machine
using the default values with the option Finish which are:
Virtual Machine Type 1 Generation,
start RAM 1,024 MB,
virtual hard disk 127 GB,
Dynamic Memory not selected
and Network Configuration not connected.
Today, we'll do a customized configuration.
So we'll click on Next.
Step four.
We'll now specify the name
of the virtual machine we're creating.
In this example, we'll name it as HPE Server.
The system will automatically assign the file
on the local disk.
In this case, C drive disk.
If we want to change the location,
we'll need to click on Store the virtual machine
in a different location
and start the search to select the one we want to use.
Once the step is completed, we can click on Next.
Step five.
Next, we're going to specify the virtual machine type;
either Generation 1 or 2,
depending on the version of the guest operating system
to be installed and the boot method.
In this example,
we'll select Generation 2 to have a secured boot
in our operating system and we'll click on Next.
Important.
It's recommended to create a Generation 2 virtual machine
so you can have a secured boot.
Generation 1 virtual machines are outdated operation systems
and that boot option is not available.
Step six.
We'll now indicate the RAM to be assigned
to the virtual machine.
We're created with 4,096 MB of RAM.
You select the option Used Dynamic Memory
for this virtual machine
so you can get better consolidation and reliability
on the restart virtual machine operations.
We click on Next.
Note: Please consider
that for remote desktop virtual machine solutions,
Windows Server 2019 requires 2GB of RAM
as minimum.
Step seven.
We'll now select the Network Adapter Virtual Switch
that will be the connection between the virtual machines
and the exterior.
If we haven't configured a specific switch,
select Default Switch
to work with the network adapter available
on the physical server.
Click on Next.
Step eight.
The next step is to assign or create a virtual hard disk
in our virtual machine
that later will be used to install the operating system.
It's recommended to have a minimum of 2GB
of capacity.
We'll create our virtual hard disk
and save it on the local C drive disk.
Click on Next.
In case of already having a virtual disk created,
we can select Use an Existing virtual hard disk
or to do a later on Attach a virtual hard disk later.
Step nine.
To finalize, we'll select the Install an Operating System
from a bootable image file option
to locate the installation file, meaning the ISO image.
Once done, click on Open and then on Next.
There are two additional installation options:
installing operating systems later
to do it after the virtual machine has been created
or install an operating system
from a network-based installation server
if the installation media is located
in another network server.
Step 10.
We've completed the virtual machine creation.
Now, we can see a summary of the configured options.
You can now click on Finish.
Your virtual machine is ready to be started
and Windows Server 2019 can be installed.
Step 11.
Now that the virtual machine has been created,
we'll go back to the Hyper-V Manager Administrator console
and we'll see it there named as HPE Server.
Select and right click on it.
On the menu displayed, select Connect.
Step 12.
The following window will open
showing our virtual machine turned off.
To start it, click on Start
and immediately on Enter to start the installation process
of Windows Server.
Step 13.
The Windows Server installation process has started.
We'll now need to indicate the language to install,
time and currency format and keyboard or input method.
Once completed, click on Next.
Step 14.
In the window displayed, the Install Now option will appear
so you can select it.
Step 15.
We'll select the Window Server Standard
Desktop Experience option.
Considered that the HPE Windows Server image,
both the Standard and Datacenter edition,
are already loaded.
We'll select Standard
as this will be our first virtualization.
Once selected, we'll click on Next.
We recommend the Desktop Experience option
as it allows to do an installation
on a Graphic User Interface environment.
Whenever this option is not available,
the installation will be done with PowerShell
through command lines which require knowledge on this topic.
Step 16.
Click on I Accept the License Terms and then on Next.
Step 17.
Select the Custom option
as we're creating a completely new virtual machine.
You would select the Upgrade option
if there's already a compatible version of Windows
working on the server like Windows Server 2016.
Step 18.
Previously on Step 8, we configured a virtual hard disk
of 20 GB,
which will appear automatically.
Select it and click on Next.
Step 19.
Windows Server 2019 Standard installation process
will start automatically.
When completed, the virtual machine will restart.

Step 20.
Once the virtual machine has restarted,
we'll enter the Password and then click on Finish.
Step 21.
To finish, on the virtual machine connection console menu,
we'll select the Action option.
When its options display, we click on Control+Alt+Delete,
letting us access the virtual machine
and enter the Password.
Step 22.
The Windows Server 2019 Standard installation process
on our virtual machine has finished
and is now ready to be used.
Virtualization with Hyper-V is the first step
in enabling a dynamic data center
and is the foundation of the hybrid cloud deployed
as a row in Windows Server 2019,
the operating system that bridges on-premise and cloud.
HPE SMB Virtualization Solutions
are ready-to-deploy solutions
that include HPE Proliant hardware, software,
services and best-selling options
including Hyper-V on Windows Server.
