puppet-hyper_v

This module contains basic configuration tasks for Microsoft Hyper-V. It is still a work in progress project with the following implemented functionality:

1. Install Hyper-V role.
2. Install additional features: Hyper-V module for PowerShell and GUI management tools.
3. Configure live migration parameters.
4. Create and configure virtual switches.

Basic usage

The basic scenario allows the user to configure the Hyper-V role and the additional tools:

class { 'hyper_v':
  ensure_powershell => present,
  ensure_tools      => present,
}

To configure live migration parameters, an specific class is provided:

class { 'hyper_v::live_migration':
  enabled                      => true,
  authentication_type          => 'Kerberos',
  simultaneous_live_migrations => 3,
}

Finally, a custom type has been implemented to define virtual switches in Hyper-V:

virtual_switch { 'test switch':
  notes             => 'Switch bound to main address fact',
  type              => External,
  os_managed        => true,
  interface_address => $::ipaddress,
}
