Hyper-V is a hypervisor-based virtualization technology developed by Microsoft. It allows users to create and run virtual machines (VMs) on a physical computer, enabling multiple operating systems to run concurrently on the same hardware. Hyper-V is available as a feature in Windows Server operating systems and is also included in some versions of Windows client operating systems, such as Windows 10 and 11, Pro and Enterprise.

This Step-By-Step guide will show you how to enable and configure Hyper-V on a computer running Windows 11.

Let’s begin.

Key features and concepts related to Hyper-V

Here are some key features and concepts related to Hyper-V:

Hypervisor: Hyper-V utilizes a Type 1 hypervisor, which is a software layer that directly interacts with the underlying hardware. This hypervisor manages and allocates hardware resources to virtual machines, ensuring their isolation and optimal performance.
Virtual Machines: Hyper-V allows you to create and manage virtual machines, which are independent instances of operating systems running on the same physical server. Each virtual machine has its own virtual hardware, including virtual processors, memory, storage, and network interfaces. These virtual machines can run different operating systems, such as Windows, Linux, or others.
Live Migration (available only in Hyper-V Clusters on Windows Servers): Hyper-V supports live migration, which enables you to move a running virtual machine from one physical server to another without causing downtime or service interruption. This feature is beneficial for load balancing, hardware maintenance, or scaling the virtual infrastructure.
Integration Services: Hyper-V provides Integration Services, which are a set of drivers and services that enhance the performance and functionality of virtual machines. These services enable features like time synchronization, improved network and storage performance, and mouse integration between the virtual machine and the host.
Virtual Switch: Hyper-V includes a virtual switch, which acts as a network bridge between virtual machines and the physical network. It enables communication between virtual machines, as well as connectivity to external networks and resources.
Snapshots/Checkpoints (Windows Server/Windows 10 or 11, respectively): Hyper-V allows you to take snapshots/checkpoints of virtual machines, which capture the state of the VM at a specific point in time. Snapshots/checkpoints are useful for creating backups or for testing and experimentation, as they allow you to revert the VM back to a previous state if needed.

Hyper-V is widely used in enterprise environments for server virtualization, consolidation, and creating test and development environments. It provides a robust and scalable virtualization platform that enables organizations to optimize their hardware resources, improve flexibility, and reduce costs associated with maintaining physical infrastructure.

Step 1: Checking if your system is compatible

To install Hyper-V on Windows, you need to ensure that your system meets the necessary hardware and software requirements. Here are the requirements to install Hyper-V:

Hardware Requirements:

Processor: Your computer’s processor must support hardware-assisted virtualization. Most modern processors have this feature, but it may need to be enabled in the BIOS settings. Look for options such as “Virtualization Technology (VT)” or “Intel VT-x” for Intel processors, or “AMD-V” for AMD processors.
Memory (RAM): The amount of RAM required depends on the number and size of virtual machines you plan to run simultaneously. Microsoft recommends a minimum of 4 GB of RAM for the host operating system, but it’s advisable to have more if you plan to run resource-intensive virtual machines.
Storage: Sufficient disk space is necessary to store virtual machine files. The exact amount depends on the size of the virtual machines and the number of virtual hard disks you plan to create. A minimum of 50 GB of free space on the system drive is recommended.
Networking: A network adapter is required to connect virtual machines to the network. Ensure that your computer has a compatible network interface card (NIC) that is properly installed and functioning.
