Enabling guest
-specied IP addresses in VMM
In VMM, you must enable guest-specied IP addresses for the Medium Bandwidth Adapter port prole. 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 Pr
oles.
3 Double-click
Medium Bandwidth Adapter, and then click Security Settings. The following dialog box opens.

4 Select the
Allow guest specied 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
shar
e:
1 Create a script similar to the following sample and save it to \\<prex>S6\C$\Dell\Scripts. The values for $VolumeFriendlyName,
$SSDSize
, and $HDDSize listed under “# Input Parameters” may need to be changed to reect 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.
Table 11. Sample script for creating tenant share
# Create a Tenant Share
# Input Parameters
$VolumeFriendlyName = "TenantShare"
$SSDSize = [uint64]50GB
$HDDSize = [uint64]500GB
# Static Code
$ssdTier = Get-StorageTier -FriendlyName "SSDTier-StoragePool"
$hddTier = Get-StorageTier -FriendlyName "HDDTier-StoragePool"
