Your network contains two servers named Server1 and Server 2. Both servers run Windows Server 2012 R2
and have the Hyper-V server role installed.
Server1 hosts a virtual machine named VM1. The virtual machine configuration files and the virtual hard disks
for VM1 are stored in D: \\VM1.
You shut down VM1 on Server1.
You copy D:\\VM1 to D:\\VM1 on Server2.
You need to start VM1 on Server2. You want to achieve this goal by using the minimum amount of
administrative effort.
What should you do?
A.
Run the Import-VMIntialReplication cmdlet.
B.
Create a new virtual machine on Server2 and attach the VHD from VM1 to the new virtual machine.
C.
From Hyper-V Manager, run the Import Virtual Machine wizard.
D.
Run the Import-IscsiVirtualDisk cmdlet.
Explanation:
Starting in Windows Server 2012, you no longer need to export a virtual machine to be able to import it. You
can simply copy a virtual machine and its associated files to the new host, and then use the Import Virtual
Machine wizard to specify the location of the files. This registers the virtual machine with Hyper-V and makes it
available for use.
In addition to the wizard, the Hyper-V module for Windows PowerShell includes cmdlets for importing virtual
machines. For more information, see Import-VM
