Creating and assigning Logical Switches to Hyper-V hosts


Now that the Logical Networks and Uplink and Virtual Port Profiles have been created, they need to be applied to a Logical Switch.

As the converged networking model will be used, the Logical Switch will have several virtual NICs created for the Management OS to use:

  • Management

  • Live Migration

  • Cluster

You will need to have a Hyper-V cluster with no logical switches (or standard switches) configured and attached to VMM. Please visit http://technet.microsoft.com/en-gb/library/gg610621.aspx for details.

Getting ready

As a prerequisite, all of the previous recipes must be complete. Additionally, you must have at least one Hyper-V host in the environment to test with. Please see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg610646.aspx for details on how to add Hyper-V hosts to VMM.

How to do it…

The following diagram shows you the high-level steps involved in this recipe:

This will result in a Logical Switch that is capable of hosting virtual machines...
