Physical Host Considerations
6/17/2018 3:33 PM Physical Host Considerations IOPs, IOPs, IOPs, etc… Ensure host has CPU, Mem, Disk space for scenario Performance: Windows Defender, Storage IOPs, CPU & Mem VMs often needed 2 CPUs or more (e.g., for OS deployment) Windows Defender or 3rd party anti-malware Multiple-levels all running in parallel (3 layers or more!) © 2014 Microsoft Corporation.

Parent VM Considerations #1
6/17/2018 3:33 PM Parent VM Considerations #1 Minimum of 2 vCPU - gave 4 vCPU on Include 512-1GB of memory for Parent VM in your allocation Turn off Dynamic Memory with the Parent VM (not supported) Dynamic Disks Space overhead (parent VM): 13GB 11GB compact /CompactOS:Always powercfg /hibernate off Minimize Page File Size System Protection (“comfortable” setting) Keep it clean © 2014 Microsoft Corporation.

Parent VM Considerations #2
6/17/2018 3:33 PM Parent VM Considerations #2 Use Checkpoints when creating VMs (at Parent VM level) Make sure to remove before distributing Before distributing: Shutdown Parent VM Compact Parent VM (source) Distribute (via Azure!)

Internal VMs Treat just like any Hyper-V environment
6/17/2018 3:33 PM Internal VMs Treat just like any Hyper-V environment Checkpoints within Parent VM, networking, etc. Remember the resource limitations of the host (e.g., vCPU, memory, etc.) Dynamic Memory supported within the Internal-VMs Use Hyper-V VM Parent-Child Configuration Differencing Disks (source) to minimize space Parent VM Compact Parent VM Space overhead (parent VM): 13GB 11GB Performance: Windows Defender, Storage IOPs, CPU & Mem VMs often needed 2 CPUs or more (for OS deployment) Windows Defender Multiple-levels all running in parallel (3 layers or more!) © 2014 Microsoft Corporation.

Troubleshooting Simplified
6/17/2018 3:33 PM Troubleshooting Simplified Multiple-levels all running in parallel (3 layers or more!) #1 Does the host have all of the expected resources #2 Was the Parent VM setup w/ the right resources? vCPU: Single vCPU will starve the internal VMs Mem: Parent VM + requirements of internal VMs Disk: IOPs #3 Rollback to “known good” checkpoint of Parent VM If issue still exists, the is most likely is in the child VMs © 2014 Microsoft Corporation.
