How do I virtualize on my Windows Server 2012 R2 laptop?

Question

Active Directory

In general, for self-study, I need such a virtual machine to touch Windows server 2012 from the inside. I'm trying to prepare for the course 20-410. What to use for virtualization?

Answer 1

Look first in the BIOS there is also hardware support for virtualization, otherwise you will catch very good brakes, both from Virtualbox and Hyper-V.

Answer 2

If the laptop is running Windows 8.1 (or 10), then Hyper-V: when deploying, you can specify the second generation of the VM for "closer contact".
