Amrutha Varshini: We are starting a series for DBAs and others who want to create a SQL Cluster on Hyper-V. This series would help you to create a play ground using Hyper-V and creating Windows 2008 Cluster and installing SQL Server 2008 on top of it. To get started, we first need the operating system. This series would be dedicated for creating a virtual environment for Windows Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008.

You should remember two major terms in Virtualization. Guest and Host. Host is the machine on which you are running Hyper-V and Guest is machine running inside Host. In the current scenario, the Domain Controller and two nodes (running Windows Server 2008) are guests and a Windows 2008 Server running Hyper-V is host.
