4 likes1,554 views
Hyper-V in Windows 8 includes improvements to data protection, networking and memory, and mobility features. For data protection, it features Hyper-V Replica for disaster recovery and improved Windows Backup. For networking and memory, it includes new quality of service features for minimum and maximum bandwidth allocation and run time dynamic memory configuration. For mobility, it features enhanced live migration capabilities including multiple concurrent live migrations without shared storage.

- 25. Virtual Machine Fibre Channel Hyper-V Hyper-V New in Windows 8: Host Host FibreChannel into the guest. This gives customers another option for guest clustering. CSV Hyper-V will use hardware offloads: ODX Trim External Storage Array
- 26. Remote File Server Hyper-V Hyper-V Hyper-V supports file storage through Host Host the SMB protocol. This works in all scenarios, including planned/unplanned failover and live migration. You can cluster the file server for availability and scalability. Cross-cluster live migration requires remote file servers. File Server Requirements: Requires updated protocol, SMB 2.2 Requires remote VSS for host based backup
