Lab Setup for migrations

Reference for migrations

• This activity is based on documentation present over here

Assumptions

• We will be creating a Windows Server 2016 with HyperV enabled.
• We know that this is in cloud, but assume this in on premise

Steps

1. Create a resource group in Central Us location
2. Launch a Windows 2016 Server with Any V3 (D4_V3)
3. Enable RDP access
4. Enable Hyper-V
5. Create a virtual network switch & NAT for getting internet for vm
6. Install chocolatey and then vagrant

choco install vagrant -y 

7. Restart the machine.
8. Configure DHCP Server

Creating Virtual Machine using vagrant

• Open Powershell as admin and execute the following

mkdir c:\webserver
cd c:\webserver
vagrant init centos/7
vagrant up
vagrant ssh
exit

Points to note

• In V3 series, Microsoft azure started supporting nested virtualization.
