Course 20740C: Installation, Storage, and Compute with Windows Server 2016 1
Microsoft Labs Online

Microsoft Labs Online (online or hosted labs) are available for this and other
Microsoft Official Courseware (MOC) courses. This provides an alternative to the
lab setup and configuration that is outlined in this document, where the course
virtual machines are accessed on Microsoft Learning’s hosted lab platform, rather
than on physical local machines.
Requirement for accessing hosted labs

Hosted labs still require that each student have a host computer to access the
course lab environment, but the host computer does not need to meet the same
specifications as when the virtual machines are running locally.
The general requirements for student machines are as follows:
• A valid operating system such as Windows 7 or newer
• Microsoft Internet Explorer, or another supported web browser
• Internet access
You should refer to your individual hosting provider for more specific details.
In addition, there may be some variations in steps for labs that are run in a
hosted environment as opposed to a local environment. Details of any variations
in lab steps can be found in the Lab Notes on the hosted lab platform.
If you are using hosted labs instead of on-premises labs, become familiar with
how to access and configure the labs. Ensure that you are ready to demonstrate
their use to students when starting the class, and that everything is in place for
students to have a smooth experience.
You can purchase Microsoft Labs Online for use during course delivery at the
same time you order the course materials.
Note: Some labs may not be available on the Microsoft Labs Online platform
due to specific requirements in the lab steps, such as labs with a “boot to vhd”
or "native boot" requirement. Therefore, you should evaluate the labs in your
course before deciding whether to use local labs or Microsoft Labs Online labs.
2 Course 20740C: Installation, Storage, and Compute with Windows Server 2016
Digital Courseware
If you are using digital courseware via the Skillpipe reader from Arvato, if the
course contains a “boot to vhd” or “native boot” scenario in some or all of the
labs, students will not be able to view the online courseware content and lab
steps in the Skillpipe reader while their host machine is offline. In this particular
scenario, use one of the following options:
1. Have two network interface cards (NICs) in the host machines.
2. Print out the Lab steps for the particular module.
3. Ask student who have their own devices to bring them to the class.
4. Configure two virtual machines prior to the class to allow access to the
content offline.
Depending on your particular situation, consider implementing one of the above
options. Further details and considerations for these workarounds and options
are available on the Born To Learn website at http://borntolearn.mslearn.net, and
have also been sent out via partner and Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT)
newsletters.
Important: Additional virtual machine configuration may be required.

Therefore, you should allow enough time to assess your situation and make
appropriate decisions.
Introducing Microsoft Hyper-V

Note: This setup requires Windows Server 2016 with Hyper-V. To import virtual
machines successfully to Hyper-V in Windows Server 2016 you will have
to run the VM-Pre-Import scripts, which will link the differencing drives to the
Base and Middle-Tier images in the D:\Program Files\Microsoft Learning
\20740\Drives\VirtualMachineName\Virtual Hard Disks\folders.
This learning product is designed using Microsoft® Hyper-V running on

Windows Server 2016 RTM. Hyper-V is a virtualization technology that allows a
single computer to act as a host for one or more virtual machines. The virtual
machines use a set of virtual devices that might or might not map to the physical
hardware of the host computer.
The software that is installed onto the virtual machine is unmodified, full-version,
retail software that operates exactly as it does when it is installed onto physical
hardware.
The following definitions will help you with the remainder of this document:
• Hyper-V: Hyper-V is a server application that enables users to run a broad
range of operating systems simultaneously on a single physical server.
• Host Computer: The physical computer onto which an operating system and
the Hyper-V server role have been installed.
• Host Operating System: The operating system that is running on the
physical computer. For this course, the only supported host operating system
is Windows Server 2016.
• Virtual Machine: The computer that is running inside Hyper-V. In this
document, “Hyper-V” refers to the application running on the host, while
“virtual machine” refers to the guest operating system and any software that
is running inside the Hyper-V application.
• Guest Operating System: The operating system that is running inside the
virtual machine.
Note: Pressing CTRL+ALT+DELETE while working with a virtual machine will

display the Windows Security page for the host operating system. To close the
page, press the ESC key. To access the Windows Security page for a guest
operating system, press CTRL+ALT+END. Other than this difference, software
on a virtual machine behaves as it would behave on a physical computer.
You can configure virtual machines to communicate with the host computer,
other virtual machines on the same host computer, other host computers, virtual
machines on other host computers, other physical computers on the network, or
any combination thereof.
The setup instructions that you will follow as part of this classroom setup guide
will configure Hyper-V and the virtual machines that run on the host. Changing
any of the configuration settings might render the labs for this learning product
unusable.
Windows 10 Virtual Machine Activation

The virtual machines that you use in this course utilize the Windows 10 operating
system, which you must activate. For detailed instructions, refer to “Configure the
Virtual Machines on the Instructor Computer” in this document.
For more information about this requirement, and for steps about how to obtain
product keys for activation, refer to: “Product Key Distribution for Activation of
Windows” (for MOC lab virtual machines only) at:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=270851
Windows Server 2016 Virtual Machine Activation

You do not require a product key to activate the server virtual machines because
they are pre-keyed and can be activated automatically by placing them online or
activating them over the phone. Once that initial 180-day activation period has
expired, you can obtain a second 180-day activation period by running slmgr
rearm, restarting, and then activating the virtual machine as outlined earlier.
You can obtain additional context and details on activation states from the Born
To Learn website at: http://aka.ms/moclabkey.
Setup Overview
The host computers must be set up with Windows Server 2016 and must be
running on 64-bit hardware. For more information on the supported hardware for
Hyper-V, please see the follow web site: http://www.microsoft.com/hyper-v.
For the purposes of this learning product, it is not necessary for the host
computers to be able to communicate with another network. However, we
recommend that you allow the computers to communicate with each other to
make the setup process easier. The following setup procedures assume that the
host computers can communicate with each other for setup purposes. You
should note the administrator’s user name and password for the host computers,
and provide this information to the instructor.
Classroom Requirements
This learning product requires a classroom with a minimum of one computer for
the instructor and one for each student. Before class begins, use the following
information and instructions to install and configure all computers.

Instructor Computer Setup

Use the instructions in the following section to set up the classroom manually.
Before starting the instructor computer installation, a supported operating
system and Office Power Point 2007 (or newer) must be installed on the
computer.
Important: The operating systems installed on the virtual machines in this

learning product have not been activated, and each virtual machine is in the
Notification state.
As stated earlier, you must activate the Windows 10 client virtual machines for
each of the steps outlined below. However, you do not need to activate the
Windows Server 2016 virtual machines, but you will, at a minimum, need to
apply a grace period by running slmgr –rearm at the administrative command
prompt and then restarting. This gives a ten-day grace period before the virtual
machine returns to the notification mode and subsequent hourly shutdowns.
You can view the number of rearms available in the virtual machines by running
the command slmgr -dlv. If you require an extended period, you can activate
the server virtual machines for 180 days.
You do not require a product key to activate the server virtual machines
because they are pre-keyed and can be activated automatically by placing them
online or activating them over the phone. Once that initial 180-day activation
period has expired, you can obtain a second 180-day activation period by
running slmgr -rearm, restarting, and then activating the virtual machine as
outlined earlier.
