I have 3 Hosts composing the &quot;CSV Cluster&quot; Hyper-V environment (managed by Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2008 R2).<br />
&nbsp;Let's will create 2 VMs Exchange 2010 CAS/HUB and Mailbox Server Exchange 2010 2 VMs with DAG (the Database will be attached directly to disk (VHD) with 1.2 Gb to which we break at least 6 partitions).<br />

Microsoft Virtual Server was a virtualization solution that facilitated the creation of virtual machines on the Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003 operating systems. Virtual machines are created and managed through a web-based interface that relies on Internet Information Services (IIS) or through a Windows client application tool called VMRCplus. Features included Linux guest operating system support, Virtual Disk Precompactor, symmetric multiprocessing (SMP), x64 host operating system support, the ability to mount virtual hard drives on the host machine and additional operating systems support, including Windows Vista, and a volume shadow copy writer.
