One of the things my kids asked for Christmas was a Windows 7 install with a local vhd. So here is what I did.

Similar to the method that you delete the local bitlocker partition here is how you install Windows 7 into a vhd

At the beginning of the GUI install press:
Shift + F10
In the command prompt window:
Diskpart

Inside the diskpart control:

Select disk 0
Create part primary
Select part 1
Format fs=ntfs quick
Assign letter=c (note that the letter is not a factor in these steps nor does it apply to how the drive is viewed later)

At the partitioning window during install open a command prompt by pressing Shift + F10
Once in type diskpart

Using Microsoft's DFS replication with Provisioning Services HA

He just wrote a great article about DFS replication and its use in Provisioning Services Environments.

Here is the intro to the article:

Updated again. As Bullwinkle used to say, "This time, For Sure!"

Changed my CMS yet again. But I really like the performance of this one. Stand by for a bunch more content later today and this week.
Open the floodgates!

I can't believe it. It is done. Over 5100 entries in this database, all migrated. I've been working on this since I spent some time in the hospital in March. But finally it is done. It really feels good. I event got to put in the start of a few new features like Twitter!

How to Integrate XenServer Redundantly into a XenDesktop Infrastructure

Summary

This article describes how to integrate XenServer redundantly into a XenDesktop 3.0 infrastructure.

Background

XenDesktop allows integrating hypervisors like XenServer, Hyper-V, or ESX into a virtual desktop infrastructure for advanced management of the virtual machines (such as: start, stop, suspend, and so on). For an integration of XenServer in particular, this means specifying the Resource Pool master and valid user credentials within the Create Desktop Group dialog of the XenDesktop Access Management Console snap-in.

In case of an outage of the specified server, the desktop group cannot be administered nor is any automatic boot, reboot, or shutdown task successful, until the server is back online.

Procedure

The steps to complete the task:

1. Within the Create desktop Group dialog select Citrix Xen VM infrastructure (included with XenDesktop).

2. Click Options.

3. Specify a list of XenServers, which will be contacted in case of an outage of the Resource Pool Master, separated by semicolons as show in the screen shot below.

Yesterday all servers in the U.S. went out on strike in a bid to get more RAM and better CPUs. A spokes person said that the need for better RAM was due to some fool increasing the front-side bus speed. In future, busses will be told to slow down in residential motherboards.
