If I am using HyperV - Core edition as hyper visor then what options are available to manage VM from remote ?
How are you going to manage it from your desktop PC? You do not want to have to use Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) to connect to the server and launch the Hyper-V manager, every time that you want to administer Hyper-V. Thus, you need the Hyper-V tools for remote management up and running whenever you need them
What about if i am not using domain environment. (what permission required to authenticate both machine which each other)
So what will my scenario prerequisite:
A client computer that is running Windows 7, and that is connected to the same network where the virtualization server is connected (both computers in a workgroup or both in a domain).
You can install Hyper-V Manager on a Window 7 machine , and from that computer, you can manage the virtual machines that are running on your virtualization server. The user experience is the same as that of Hyper-V Manager running on the virtualization server.
Download the Remote Server Administration Tools (Windows 7 Professional or Ultimate only)
add following <ip of the windows 7> <hostname of the windows 7>
Some last change to the Windows 7
Log in with the administrator account you created before
open DCOM settings by by typing dcomcnfg in the box on the start menu, and expand the menu so that “My Computer” is selected under Component Services\Computers.
security and select Edit Limits under Access Permissions
Allow the Remote access for ANONYMOUS LOGON
If you don't see the Administrative Tools in the Start menu, right-click the Start menu > Properties
On the tab Start Menu, select Customize
Activate the Hyper-v tools
Select in the Windows 7 Control Panel > Programs
Select Turn Windows features on or off
Activate the Hyper-V tools under Remote Server Administration Tools > Role Administration Tools
Connect to the Hyper-V
Connect to the Hyper-V by selecting Connect to Server
Enter the hostname/ Ip address of your Hyper-V node, you will now see the VMs on your hyper-V node
Select the server you want to connect to and select Connect from the right hand side. An VRDP session will open
