I am sure everyone has realized, when it comes to configure Servers I am the last person that should get near them. I am good enough to be very dangerous, which some times is cool. But any how, I was trying to setup a new lab for me on Hyper-V (also new to me, seems all mysterious and has w00000ness factor for me). Anyhow, I am glad while running around internet I ran into following two sites, they both made my life 100x easier. I never though I’ll get Hyper-V working, never mind having iSCSI targets, initiators and Failover Clustering working .. weeeee! Thanks to both Brien M. Posey & Jane Yan authors of following articles.

Thanks a bunch again :). One might ask why I am playing with Hyper-V? Well I want to muck around with clustering when I am bored, I can’t afford expensive hardware. But I got some extra hard drive space to spare… so here we go. I’ll be filling it up with VMS weeeeee! Okay back to having fun :D.
