9. 1.SharePoint HA refers to the deployment of each of the key tiers of a SharePoint infrastructure, across multiple virtual machines. This would involve the WFEs balanced behind a NLB, redundant application servers, and a SQL Server AlwaysOn/Clustered/Mirrored configuration across multiple virtual machines. These combinations are supported on Hyper-V. 2.Support for running SharePoint on Windows Server 2012 R2 is only available with SharePoint 2013 SP1 and SharePoint 2010 SP2 SharePoint 2007 Hardware & Software RequirementsHardware & Software Requirements, Hardware Virtualization SupportHardware Virtualization Support SharePoint 2010 Hardware & Software RequirementsHardware & Software Requirements, Hardware Virtualization SupportHardware Virtualization Support SharePoint 2013 Hardware & Software RequirementsHardware & Software Requirements, Hardware Virtualization SupportHardware Virtualization Support SharePoint 2007 SP32003 SP2, 2003 R2 SP2, 2008 SP2, 2008 R2 SP1Yes SharePoint 2010 SP22008 SP2, 2008 R2 SP1, 2012, 2012 R2 2 Yes SharePoint 2013 SP12008 R2 SP1, 2012, 2012 R2 2 Yes

19. SharePoint Infrastructure within a Hybrid Cloud

22. Leave adequate memory for the Hyper-V partitions. (we recommend 6 GB of RAM or more for host computer operations.) Do not cross Non-uniform memory access (NUMA) boundaries. Use a recommended of four physical network adapters Use NIC Teaming for the VM guest network. Use a minimum of two physical network adapters.

23. Do not oversubscribe the CPU on the virtualization host computer. Do not use snapshots in a production environment* Do not use the parent partition for services other than Hyper-V. Do not store host computer system files on drives that are used for Hyper-V storage.

25. Avoid running programs such as anti-virus software on the parent partition. (Run them on the child partition if they are required.) Use hardware that supports Second Level Address Translation (SLAT). Enable Hyper-Threading (if hardware supports it) Use fast connections on Hyper-V (10GB) Close the operating system management windows.
