Virtual what?!

Virtual Appliances are fully featured, ready-to-import, Microsoft Hyper-V-based Virtual Machines.

To deploy a new Virtual Machine, download a Virtual Appliance, extract it and import it ("Action" -> "Import Virtual Machine") to your Hyper-V host. It's that easy!

VHDs are freshly cooked dynamic Hyper-V Virtual Hard Disk Images.

You can use a VHD image as a base for the deployment of differencing Virtual Hard Disk images or you can remove the read-only flag and attach the VHD image to your new (or pre-existing) Virtual Machine and boot it straight away.

Requirements.

To deploy a 14.04 Virtual Appliance, you'll either need:

To deploy a 12.04 Virtual Appliance, you'll either need:

What for?!

Both methods will save you/your company plenty of time and bandwidth.

Some Random VHD[X]/Virtual Appliances Advantages:

  • You won't have to go through the whole setup process again.
  • You'll optimize disk space and bandwitdth consumption by keeping both at a minimum.
  • No excuses: CentOS minimal VHD size is smaller than the official Centos-6.2-x86_64-minimal.iso (187MB VS 321 MB)!
