Enabling guest-specied IP addresses in VMM

In VMM, you must enable guest-specied IP addresses for the Medium Bandwidth Adapter port prole. This is required for guest cluster

creation because during cluster creation, an IP address must be assigned to the cluster.

To do this, perform the following steps:

1 In the VMM console, open the Fabric workspace.

2 Expand Networking, and then click Port Proles.

3 Double-click Medium Bandwidth Adapter, and then click Security Settings. The following dialog box opens.

4 Select the Allow guest specied IP address (only available for virtual machines on Windows Server 2012 R2) check box.

Creating additional tenant storage shares

By default, there is only one tenant storage share—Share01. This share is approximately 220 GB, and is used for any Patch and Update

packages that are applied to the solution.

You can deploy additional tenant shares as needed, depending on anticipated usage and types of workloads. To create an additional tenant

1 Create a script similar to the following sample and save it to \\<prex>S6\C$\Dell\Scripts. The values for $VolumeFriendlyName,

$SSDSize, and $HDDSize listed under “# Input Parameters” may need to be changed to reect the needs of your environment.

Dell recommends that the total share size (inclusive of both SSD and HDD) be 10 TB or less.

WARNING

: Each of the following segments of code set o by “Begin – Long Line” and “End – Long Line” are

continuous lines of code that have been wrapped to t in this document. Each should be a single line in the script that

you save and run. Also, note that the phrase "Physical Disk" contains a space between these two words.
