Samenvatting:

Hyper-V clusters are not built by clicking through a wizard. They are built by making deliberate decisions about failure domains, storage, networking, identity, patching, backup, monitoring, VM standards, workload availability, and multi-site recovery.Hyper-V Cluster Field Guide is a practical guide for designing, operating, and protecting Windows Server 2025 Hyper-V clusters in real production environments.This book focuses on the decisions that matter after deployment: how much headroom the cluster needs, how live migration should be designed, how Cluster-Aware Updating should be handled, how backup and replica differ, how monitoring becomes an operating model, how VMs should be standardized, and when stretched or multi-site clustering is the right answer.Inside, you will find field-ready guidance for Hyper-V cluster design, cluster networking, storage architecture, live migration, patching, security, backup and recovery, monitoring, capacity planning, VM build standards, workload availability, and multi-site Hyper-V designs.This is not a wizard walkthrough. It is a field guide for architects, engineers, consultants, and administrators who need Hyper-V clusters to survive maintenance, failures, growth, and recovery testing.
