Chapter 6: Deploying the Management Cluster

Dell EMC Ready Stack: Microsoft Hyper-V on PowerEdge 14G Servers and Unity Storage

 

Deployment Guide 

Introduction 

This chapter describes the basic requirements and configuration steps for deploying the 
management cluster. 

Install Windows Server 2016 with Hyper-V on each of the PowerEdge management hosts 
that will be part of the management cluster. You can order PowerEdge servers with 
Windows Server 2016 preinstalled from Dell EMC or perform the installation locally or 
remotely through the iDRAC web interface. This chapter describes how to perform the 
installation remotely.  

Note:

 In our example, we assign static IP addresses to the management interfaces of the 

Windows Server 2016 hosts. Using DHCP is not recommended for IP allocation of management 
hosts.  

Preparing management hosts for Windows Server 2016 with 
Hyper-V  

 

To complete these procedures, you need: 

 

For iDRAC: IP addresses or FQDNs, login credentials, and Enterprise license 
applied on all nodes. 

 

Windows Server 2016 operating image. Note the image location on your system 
because that is needed for mounting virtual media. 

 

Host names, management VLAN ID, and IP address information. 

 

Active Directory site name and administrative credentials. 

 

Credentials for the administrative account to be used to install Windows. 

 

Static IP addresses for each of the management servers. 

 

Optional: Records for hostnames added to the DNS server. 

Note: 

For

 

information about setting up iDRAC, including configuring the IP address, see the iDRAC 

user guide at 

Support for PowerEdge R640

 on Dell EMC Online Support. 

 

Note:

 Performing this step depends on customer workload and operational requirements. 

Apply a BIOS settings profile (optional) 

Optionally, apply the BIOS settings profile that is optimized for maximum virtualization 
performance as follows. 

Note:

 You can achieve the same result by using other means, such as remote 

racadm

. This 

procedure is the quickest approach for most environments. 

1. 

Connect to the iDRAC IP address of one of the management hosts by using an 
SSH client such as PuTTY. 

2. 

Log in with the default credentials: 

Deployment 
prerequisites 

Configure BIOS 
settings and 
connect to 
iDRAC
