This book is designed to be a tutorial in Hyper-V administration. As such, i recommend that you read the chapters in order. You’ll probably find yourself referring to earlier chapters, as you work through the book. When you’ve finished the book, you may find yourself referring to a chapter, to help solve a problem. That’s fine. It’s your book! This book takes a task-oriented approach to Hyper-V management, and as such, you will be able to immediately apply some of the knowledge gained in the day-to-day administration of Hyper-V. While you may feel comfortable conducting some of these tasks. I have gone out of my way to instruct you as to which tasks require extra care and attention. When it comes to infrastructure management tasks and virtualization, there may be times when you are working with some very sensitive items, such as storage, and any misconfiguration and/ or incorrect setting could be potentially disastrous. I am not trying to scare you, just pointing out the actual pitfalls. Is This Book for You? In short, this text is designed to take a junior IT professional, who knows nothing about Hyper-V or virtualization, and bring him or her to competency. In a few more words, one constant in the world of IT is that things are always changing. Businesses must stay competitive, which means a need for more efficiency. Many are turning to virtualization as one of these efficiencies.
