Hyper V Training Course Outline:
Welcome to Hyper–V
Of course, we have to start out with the standard "here's-what-you-can-expect-in-the-course." In this video you'll get to learn a little bit about your instructor, what you can expect from this course, and the hardware I used to create the demonstrations in the course.
- About Your Instructor and Train Signal
- What's Covered in this Course
- Hardware
Requirements and Installation
In this video I provide some virtualization theory and hardware requirements to prepare you for the rest of the course. Then, I turn right around and show you how to get the Hyper–V Server Role installed.
