Windows Server 2012 introduces the new 3.0 version of the SMB protoc

Hyper-V over SMB

With Windows Server 2012, Hyper-V

Can store virtual machine files (configuration, VHD, snapshots) in files sh

over the SMB 3.0 protocol Is supported for both stand-alone and clustered servers that use Hyper-

shared file storage for the cluster Can support scale-out file shares and clusters Can leverage SMB Multi-Channel

Server Message Block (SMB) protocol

Why should I care?

Ease of provisioning and management

You can manage file shares instead of storage fabric and logical unit n(LUNs).

Increased flexibility You can dynamically migrate virtual machines or databases in the dat

Ability to take advantage of existing investment in a converged net You can use your existing converged network with no specialized stor

networking hardware.

Reduced capital expenditures Capital expenses (acquisition costs) are reduced.

Reduced operating expenditures You can reduce operating costs because there is no need for specializ

expertise.

Standalone Hyper-V servers (no a high-availability solution) Hyper-V servers configured in a Failover Cluster

Requirements

Although not required, Failover Clustering is supportedon the Hyper-V side, the File Services side, or both.

They must be separate clusters.

1. Install the Hyper-V role on a Windows Server 2012 machine

2. Install the File Services role on a Windows Server 2012 machin

Creating an SMB ShareFrom Server Manager:

1. Log on or connect to a

Windows Server 2012computer on which theFile and Storage role isinstalled. Open ServerManager and navigateto File and StorageServices

2. In Server Manager, startthe New Share Wizard

#Create folder MD X:\VMS #Create file share New-SmbShare -Name VMS1-Path X:\VMS -FullAccess Domain\HVAdmin, Domain\HV1$, Domain\HV2$,Domain\HVC$ #Set NTFS permissions from the file share permissions (Get-Sm

VMS1).PresetPathAcl | Set-Acl

With PowerShell:

Migrating Storage to an SMB Share

1. To determine the current storage being used by a virtual machine:

2. To migrate the virtual machine storage to an SMB file share:

3. To confirm migration:

Get-VM VM1 | FT Name, Path, State Get-VMHardDiskDrive VM1 | FT VMName, P

Move-VMStorage VMName VM1 DestinationStoragePath \\FST\VMS

Get-VM VM1 | FT Name, Path, State Get-VMHardDiskDrive VM1 | FT VMName, P

You can migrate from Direct-Attached Storage to SMB file share

SMB file share to another SMB file share
