Creating training virtual machines in Azure
I am teaching the Managing Projects with Microsoft Visual Studio Team Foundation Server 2013 class next week in Cheltenham and for that I need 16 VM’s based on the Visual Studio 2013 Update 3 ALM Virtual Machine. To make life easier I will be creating training virtual machines in Azure.
Run a router on Hyper-V
I want to run a router on Hyper-V so that I can run many VM’s, each with internet access, on corporate and hotel networks. Microsoft touts Routing and Remote Access but there is no way I will go there. First it’s a total pain to setup and run. Second I need to run a whole Windows Server just to have basic DHCP and internet access. Overkill much! There must be a better way.
Remote Execute PowerShell against each Windows 8 VM
Running a remote execute PowerShell against each Windows 8 VM on your Hyper-V host can help you maintain the guest VM’s in a minimal amount of time.
