Hyper-V Cluster

Ok... This is my new task after taking my confinement leave.. I almost forget the linux command and windows skill. Huhuhu... But I just need 1 week to recover back my skill... and I think we as human also need DRS (Desaster Recovery System)... So, if anything happen in our brain.. we can restore it back.. huhuhu..

Actually this Hyper-V Cluster is not very hard to do. It is simple if you understand how cluster is working.

The step is same as below refference:

1. Name of the Virtual Switch SHOULD same for both cluster... host1 and host2.
Description: Validate that all specified nodes share the same set of network resource pools and virtual switches.
Gathering information about network resource pools used by servers running Hyper-V.
Node
Network Resource Pools
Virtual Ethernet Switches
host1.contoso.com
'Storage_net', 'Internal_IW', 'Segment250', 'DMZ-SCVMM', 'Client-Management-Network'
host2.contoso.com
'Segment250', 'HP NC373i Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapter #42 - Virtual Switch'

Processing information about network resource pools used by servers running Hyper-V.
Node 'host1.contoso.com' is missing a virtual Ethernet switch 'HP NC373i Multifunction Gigabit Server Adapter #42 - Virtual Switch' that is present on at least one other node. Either remove the virtual Ethernet switch from all nodes or ensure that it is present on all nodes.
Node 'host2.contoso.com' is missing a virtual Ethernet switch 'Client-Management-Network' that is present on at least one other node. Either remove the virtual Ethernet switch from all nodes or ensure that it is present on all nodes.
Node 'host2.contoso.com' is missing a virtual Ethernet switch 'DMZ-SCVMM' that is present on at least one other node. Either remove the virtual Ethernet switch from all nodes or ensure that it is present on all nodes.
Node 'host2.contoso.com' is missing a virtual Ethernet switch 'Internal_IW' that is present on at least one other node. Either remove the virtual Ethernet switch from all nodes or ensure that it is present on all nodes.
Node 'host2.contoso.com' is missing a virtual Ethernet switch 'Storage_net' that is present on at least one other node. Either remove the virtual Ethernet switch from all nodes or ensure that it is present on all nodes.

2. Version error. Then you have to update both server so both have same version. 

Result:
Both host was install with virtual machine, eg: vm_host1.contoso.com at host1.contoso.com and vm_host2.contoso.com at host2.contoso.com. Then, I shutdown the host1.contoso.com. You can see the motion of vm_host1.contoso.com is moving from host1.contoso.com to host2.contoso.com. It is a great result... i guest :) .. Done..
