Hyper-V Failover Cluster Configuration Confirmation

Dear All,
        I have created a Hyper-V Failover Cluster and I want you to confirm if the configuration I have done is okay and I have not missed

out anything that is mandatory for a Hyper-V Failover Cluster to work.  My configuration is below:

1. Presented Disks to servers, formatted and taken offline
2. Installed necessary features, such as failover clustering
3. Configured NIC Teaming
4. Created cluster, not adding storage at the time of creation
 - Added disks to the cluster
 - Added disks as CSV
 - Renamed disks to represent respective CSV volumes
 - Assigning each node a CSV volume
 - Configured quorum automatically which configured the disk witness
 - There were two networks so renamed them to Management and Cluster Communication
 - Exposed Management Network to Cluster and Clients
 - Exposed Cluster Communication Network to Cluster only
5. Installed Hyper-V
 - Changed Virtual Disks, Configuration and Snapshots Location
 - Assigned one CSV volume to each node
 - Configured External switch with allow management option checked

1. For minimum configuration, is this enough?

2. If I create a virtual machine and make it highly available from hyper-v console, would it be highly available and would live

migrate, etc.?

3. Are there any configuration changes required?

4. Please, suggest how it can be made better?

Thanks in advan
