DRAG DROP -
Note: This question is part of a series of questions that use the same scenario. For your convenience, the scenario is repeated in each question. Each question presents a different goal and answer choices, but the text of the scenario is exactly the same in each question in this series.
A company named Contoso, Ltd. has several servers that run Windows Server 2016. Contoso has a Hyper-V environment that uses failover clustering and
Windows Server Update Services (WSUS). The environment contains several Windows containers and several virtual machines.
The WSUS deployment contains one upstream server that is located on the company's perimeter network and several downstream servers located on the internal network. A firewall separates the upstream server from the downstream servers.
You plan to deploy a human resources application to a new server named HRServer5. HRServer5 contains a FAT32-formatted data volume.
The CIO of Contoso identifies the following requirements for the company's IT department:
✑ Deploy a failover cluster to two new virtual machines.
✑ Store all application databases by using Encrypted File System (EFS).
✑ Ensure that each Windows container has a dedicated IP address assigned by a DHCP server.
✑ Produce a report that lists the processor time used by all of the processes on a server named Server1 for five hours.Encrypt all communication between the internal network and the perimeter network, including all WSUS communications.
✑ Automatically load balance the virtual machines hosted in the Hyper-V cluster when processor utilization exceeds 70 percent.
You need to configure the storage solution for the planned failover cluster.
You create two new generations 2 virtual machines on two separate Hyper-V hosts named VM11 and VM12.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence next? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.

Create CSV Create VHDX in CSV Attached VHDX to Virtual Machines for storage failover solution. Why to create system disk and add them to CSV?

I think the answer should be... 1. Create a network share 2. Create a CSV 3. For each VM create a new system disk that uses VHDX format and store the VMs on the CSV Both VMs are on different hosts and you need shared strorage for the cluster with a CSV on the shared storage. The VHDX files for the VMs can then sit on that shared storage (with the CSV file system) and failover between nodes can occur as needed - e.g. a failover cluster.

I assume a scenario for this question as follow. I need a failover cluster with CSVs. I need a guest cluster on the failover cluster, which has Shared VHDX. To meet these needs three actions in the given answer.

after a lab test i found out that you can't add a shared drive if it's not on a CSV so the first should be create a CSV next since the CSV is created , it means that VM1 & VM2 are already in cluster mode so that's where things gets messy : creating a vhdx for each machine wouldn't be usefull as your goal is to use those machines as nodes so storage must be shared hence the "logic answer" would be create a VHDX (should be vhdSET) on the CSV then add the VHDX(set) to each vm as a shared drive this thing seems to coroborate : https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/failover-clustering/failover-cluster-csvs#arrangement-of-luns-volumes-and-vhd-files For an equivalent clustered virtual machine, you should organize the volumes and files in a similar way: System files, including a page file, in a VHD file on one CSV >>> Data files in a VHD file on another CSV If you add another virtual machine, where possible, you should keep the same arrangement for the VHDs on that virtual machine. of course i could be wrong...

I was wrong before having mis-read the question ;) I believe the answer should be... 1. Create a CSV 2. Add a shared VHDX to the CSV 3. Add the VHDX as a shared drive on both VMs. I think this seems to be the general consensus here.

I think you are right. Definitely CSV first and then the last step is to add the (shared) VHDX file as a shared drive to each VM. The middle step should be 'Create a (shared) VHDX file and store the file in the CSV'. The problem is they don't use the word 'shared' in the correct answer which causes confusion.

I think the provided answer might actually be the correct sequence. We might be forgetting that part of the requirements is that HRserver5 has a data volume formatted fat32. So I'm thinking that step 2 is correct, in that we need to setup the system VHDX volumes. Then in step 3, the additional VHDX we are setting up is a CSV shared data drive for HRserver5! Then I think it makes sense. Otherwise I agree that 2 and 3 should be reversed as others have thought.
