To deploy QoreStor on Microsoft Hyper-V and to use the QoreStor Hyper-V cmdlets, ensure that the following prerequisites are met. For more information about the available QoreStor Hyper-V cmdlets, see the topic, “Using the Suppported cmdlets for QoreStor for Hyper-V” in this document.
|
NOTE: These prerequisites are applicable to Microsoft Hyper-v Server 2016 environments. |
You must have administrator privileges or you must be a member of the administrator’s group
|
NOTE: This software is easily accessible from the Pre-Requisites folder. The pre-requisite file names may change due to different QoreStor OS versions release and also other updates may be required. |
|
NOTE: For convenience both online and offline version of .NET 4.6 is available along with the .NET security update packages. |
Installing the Hyper-V Management Tools
This prerequisite is a Windows feature that contains a PowerShell extension to manage Hyper-V servers on Server 2016 systems. Using PowerShell to install this feature, enter the following commands with elevated privileges:
Install-WindowsFeature Hyper-V-Tools
– This command enables Windows to administer Hyper-V.
Install-WindowsFeature Hyper-V-PowerShell
– This command installs additional PowerShell commands specialized for Hyper-V.
Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned
– This command allows scripts signed by a trusted publisher to be run on Windows server.. After the pre-requisites are complete, you can deploy QoreStor on the local Hyper-v host. For more information, see the topic “Deploying QoreStor on a Local Hyper-V Host”.
|
NOTE: Ensure all the pre-requisites are complete before deploying QoreStor on a local Hyper-V host. For more information, see the topic, “Prerequisites for deploying QoreStor in Microsoft Hyper-V environments.” |
To deploy the QoreStor VM on a local Hyper-V host:
1) Deploy 2) Start 3) Stop 4) Delete 5) Repair
a) DEMO b) TIER 1 c) TIER 2 d) TIER 3
If an alternate storage location is required for the QoreStor virtual appliance due to capacity limitations or for other reasons, the remote Hyper-V host Virtual hard disks and Virtual machine paths must be changed before QoreStor is deployed.
|
NOTE: The capacity requirements of QoreStor are beyond 200GB. For example, if a 2TB DR2000v is to be deployed a 2.2TB storage capacity will be required. |
To change the storage paths follow these steps:
mstsc /v:<remote server IP address>
For example: mstsc /v:127.0.0.1
The QoreStor machine is ready to be deployed.
