Hyper-V virtual machine specifications

Deploy the Hyper-V VHD

  1. Download the VHD file from this URL: https://s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/atx.discovery.collector.bundle/releases/latest/AWS-Transform-discovery-tool.vhd

  2. Copy the VHD file to the Windows Server machine that has the Hyper-V role enabled.

  3. Open Hyper-V Manager.

  4. Choose New, and then choose Virtual Machine.

  5. Complete the setup wizard. On the Specify Generation page, select Generation 1. Generation 2 virtual machines do not support the VHD format. On the Assign Memory page, allocate at least 16384 MB. On the Connect Virtual Hard Disk page, choose Use an existing virtual hard disk and select the VHD file that you copied.

  6. Start the VM. After a few minutes, check the Networking tab of the VM in Hyper-V Manager to find the IP address, or connect to the VM console and run ip addr. You use this IP address to connect to the discovery tool.
