Get up to speed and down to business with Hyper-V
Leveraging server virtualization has never been easier. Not only does Hyper-V come in the box with Microsoft Windows Server 2008, now you can get up and running in no time with expert guidance from three team members at Microsoft who worked with the product.
This insider’s guide takes you through Hyper-V essentials. You'll test new systems and new software. You'll discover how to use virtualization for disaster recovery and quick migrations. And you'll learn to manage virtual machines with System Center tools. The book provides pages of explanations and tips—and encourages you to work hands-on on your own virtual system, as you learn.
