Accessing the Hyper-V Explorer Administration tab

The Hyper-V Explorer Administration tab provides quick access to common administrative tasks that include server shutdown, virtual machine creation, resource allocation, and others. The range of available tasks depends on whether you are exploring server or virtual machine objects. For example, when exploring server details, use this tab to access server-related workflows, such as rebooting or shutting down servers, or adding virtual machines. Similarly, when you select a virtual machine in the Hyper-V Explorer, use this tab to power off, shut down, save, pause, delete, clone, move, or edit resource allocation for the selected virtual machine. For more information about the administrative tasks, see Hyper-V server and virtual machine administration .

This tab also lists the related workflows and snapshots updated in real time, and allows you to edit and re-run them to simplify your daily administration load quickly and easily.

 
* 
NOTE: The Hyper-V Explorer Administration tab is only available when the Virtual-HyperV-Admin-<version>.car and Virtual-HyperV-<version>.car are installed. This tab is accessible if your Foglight user account includes the Hyper-V Automation User role, when you are exploring individual servers and virtual machines.
