To move a virtual machine from one Hyper-V server to another, the correct procedure is to use the Export function in Hyper-V Manager. This function allows you to create a copy of the virtual machine with all its settings and files. After exporting, you need to make the export path available on the target machine, which can be done through a shared folder or network storage. Finally, you can use the Import function on the target machine to import the exported virtual machine. Therefore, the given answer "True" is correct.

To ensure that VM1 and VM2 can communicate with each other only and prevent communication with Server1, the appropriate cmdlet to use is Set-VMSwitch. This cmdlet allows you to configure virtual switches and their properties, including the ability to isolate VMs from specific networks or other VMs. By using Set-VMSwitch, you can create a virtual switch that connects only VM1 and VM2, effectively preventing communication with Server1.

The given answer is true because in a failover scenario, if the primary or secondary host server locations go offline, the administrator can manually initiate failover. This means that the administrator can manually switch the workload from the offline server to another available server to ensure continuity of operations. This manual intervention allows for quick response and mitigation of any potential downtime or service interruptions.

Child partitions do not have direct access to hardware resources. In a virtual machine environment, the parent partition acts as a mediator between the child partitions and the underlying hardware. The parent partition manages and allocates hardware resources to the child partitions, ensuring that they are isolated from each other and cannot directly access the hardware. This isolation provides better security and stability in the virtualized environment.

Hyper-V, which is a virtualization platform, runs on both the Windows Server 2016 Datacenter Edition and the Windows Server 2016 Standard Edition.
