The SQL and SCVMM VMs are created first for the Hyper-V configuration followed by the remaining
management VMs. Similarly, the SQL and vCenter VMs are created first for the vSphere configuration.
5.1 Creating Management VMs
To create VMs for Hyper-V configuration:
1. Log in to any of the hosts in the cluster and start Server Manager. Any host can be logged in to
because the VMs will eventually be added as roles to a Microsoft Failover Cluster.
2. In Server Manager, from the Tools menu, select Hyper-V-Manager.
3. In Hyper-V Manager, connect to the local server.
4. Right-click the name of the local server in the left pane and select New  Virtual Machine.
5. On the Specify Name and Location page of the New Virtual Machine wizard, type the name and
location of the VM. The location is the Nutanix SMB share for your management container (for
example, \\nutanix-cluster\ds_mgmt).. For the SCVMM VM, the server name cannot
exceed 15 characters and must not contain a “-SCVMM-“ pattern.
6. On the Specify Generation page, specify Generation 2 and click Next.
7. On the Assign Memory page, type the amount of startup memory according to the Hyper-V
Shared Session VM Sizing table and select the check box next to Use Dynamic Memory for this
virtual machine. Click Next.
8. On the Configure Networking page, select the vSwitch previously created for the management
VLAN (the Nutanix setup identifies this as “ExternalSwitch”).
9. On the Connect Virtual Hard Disk page, select the Create a virtual hard disk check box, type
the name, location, and size of the virtual disk. The location will be the Nutanix SMB share for
your management container. Recommended sizes are in the Hyper-V Management VM table.
10. On the Installation Options page, select the Install an operating system later option. Click
Finish.
11. After the VM is created, right-click the VM in the Virtual Machines pane, and then select Settings.
12. Click Memory and adjust the settings to match those in the Hyper-V Management VM table.
13. In the VM settings, click Network Adapter in the left pane, and then select the Enable Virtual
LAN Identification check box. Type the VLAN ID for your management VLAN, if applicable.
