Hi Everyone,
Thought is would be straight forward, but did not realize there are so many ways to approach my new install:
We have a new Windows 2012 Server machine with the Hyper-v role installed. I have an existing Windows 2008 Server machine that is running AD and DNS. This server is used basically for file sharing, and runs a database program running MYSQL. I wanted to migrate this server wih AD, DNS, and files to a Windows 2012 VM on the new 2012 host. The database server will be on a second VM. I would also like to use hyper-v replica for redundancy of these VM machines.
My concerns: Should Active directory and DNS be on a VM.
Any suggestions and thoughts will be appreciated.
