CORRECTED (Previously ACE) Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The
domain contains four servers named Server1, Server2, Server3, and Server4 that run Windows Server 2012
R2. All servers have the Hyper-V server role and the Failover Clustering feature installed.
You need to replicate virtual machines from Cluster1 to Cluster2.Which three actions should you perform? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose three.)
A.
From Hyper-V Manager on a node in Cluster2, create three virtual machines.
B.
From Cluster2, add and configure the Hyper-V Replica Broker role.
C.
From Failover Cluster Manager on Cluster1, configure each virtual machine for replication.
D.
From Cluster1, add and configure the Hyper-V Replica Broker role.
E.
From Hyper-V Manager on a node in Cluster2/ modify the Hyper-V settings.
Correct.
“..there are two tricks to using Hyper-V replication for a cluster-to-cluster migration. The first trick is that you have to enable the Replica Broker. The Replica Broker is a Hyper-V component that allows the replication feature to work in conjunction with failover clustering. It is an essential component and must be enabled on both the host and the destination cluster.
The other trick is to perform a planned failover. The basic idea here is that you would enable replication for a VM that is running on the source cluster. That VM is replicated to the destination cluster. Once VM replication is enabled, it will take some time for the initial synchronization process to complete. You can speed things up by using an offline copy of the VM for the initial synchronization.”

Answer: C,D,E
Explanation:
D. You must configure the Hyper-V Replica Broker for cluster1.
E. We must configure configure the Replica server to receive replication from primary
servers:
In Hyper-V Manager, click Hyper-V Settings in the Actions pane.
In the Hyper-V Settings dialog, click Replication Configuration.
In the Details pane, select Enable this computer as a Replica server.
C. Enable virtual machine replication.
Once the hosting server is configured for Replica, you can enable replication for each virtual machine that you want to be replicated.

Answer: B, C, & D
Hyper-V Replica Broker must be configured on both Clusters (regardless of whether it is the server being replicated to or from – this is different from non Failover Cluster Hyper-V configurations), and the VMs must be configured to replicate.
You should add the Hyper-V Replica Broker role to any host cluster (primary or secondary site) that will be involved in Hyper-V Replica. You do this by:
Place the cluster’s computer accounts (including any CAPs) into an OU, where the cluster has the ability to create computer objects. The new broker requires a computer object and the role will fail to start if you do not grant the cluster the Add Computer right to create it.
Launch Failover Cluster Manager and connect to the cluster.
Click Configure Role.
Select Hyper-V Replica Broker.
Enter in the desired computer name for the new broker, select the network that it should communicate on, and give it a routable IP address. Note that this is the network that will be used for replication traffic to and from the other host/cluster.

Adding the Hyper-V Replica Broker.
Note that the computer name that you enter in this wizard will be the name used for Hyper-V Replica:
Primary Site Broker Name: Will be used in the secondary site to define authorized replication clusters.
Secondary Site Broker Name: Will be used in the primary site to specify the destination for replication.
