Installation, Storage, and Compute with Windows Server 2016 — Question 50

You have a Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V failover cluster that contains two nodes named Node1 and Node2.
On Node1, you create a virtual machine named VM01 by using Hyper-V Manager.
You need to configure VM01 to move to Node2 automatically if Node1 becomes unavailable.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. From Failover Cluster Manager, run Configure Role actions.
• B. From Hyper-V Manager, click VM01, and click Enable Replication.
• C. From Hyper-V Manager, click Node1, and then modify the Hyper-V settings.
• D. From Windows PowerShell, run the Enable-VMReplicationcmdlet.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because using Failover Cluster Manager to run Configure Role actions allows the virtual machine to be configured for automatic failover between nodes. Option B, enabling replication, is not necessary for failover within a cluster, and options C and D do not address the requirement for automatic failover in a clustered environment.
