HyperV on Domain Controller or DC on HyperV?
- by Michael Stum
I want to setup a little fileserver/domain controller/sharepoint server.
SharePoint shouldn't run on the DC directly, so I want to use HyperV. But I never used it before, so I wonder: Should I install the Domain Controller and HyperV Role and run 1 VM for SharePoint? Or should I run HyperV server and then 2 servers, one for SharePoint and 1 for DC?
Usage is minimal with only 1 user. Hardware will be an Athlon II X3 with 3x2.9 GHz and 4 GB RAM.
Operating System will be Server 2008 R2 Standard in all cases.
