1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:04,280 All right, so to finish out with Cluster‑Aware Updating GUI here, 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:09,250 you saw back in Visual Studio Code that we can add CauClusterRole 3 00:00:09,250 --> 00:00:13,120 in order to do the self‑updating configuration, but of course, we 4 00:00:13,120 --> 00:00:15,740 can always do that graphically as well. 5 00:00:15,740 --> 00:00:19,260 But this one can automate the process for you of creating that role. 6 00:00:19,260 --> 00:00:22,540 It says here in the last paragraph on the Getting Started page of 7 00:00:22,540 --> 00:00:27,110 the Configure Self‑Updating Options Wizard that if the CAU 8 00:00:27,110 --> 00:00:29,630 clustered role is not already configured, 9 00:00:29,630 --> 00:00:32,480 the wizard begins by helping you configure the role. 10 00:00:32,480 --> 00:00:35,950 So, as you can see, the options are to enable, 11 00:00:35,950 --> 00:00:38,540 disable, or remove the clustered role. 12 00:00:38,540 --> 00:00:43,670 And then we've just got a graphical surface here for doing our options, our 13 00:00:43,670 --> 00:00:47,530 advanced options, what plugin do you want to use, do you want to use 14 00:00:47,530 --> 00:00:51,350 recommended updates or other products besides Windows, 15 00:00:51,350 --> 00:00:54,080 that kind of stuff? Generate report. 16 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,030 So it's just pretty straightforward. Again, 17 00:00:56,030 --> 00:00:59,950 this is all about delivering Microsoft updates through 18 00:00:59,950 --> 00:01:03,840 either WSUS or the Microsoft update website. 19 00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:06,720 Lastly, I want to make sure we've got at least one 20 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,510 user clustered role on this machine. 21 00:01:09,510 --> 00:01:12,340 So, like I promised you, we're going to do a little bit 22 00:01:12,340 --> 00:01:14,800 more with Storage Spaces Direct here. 23 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:18,760 I'm going to take the default Cluster Pool here that we looked at 24 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,000 a moment ago, and if we look at Virtual Disks, we can see that 25 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,430 depending upon the kind of storage that's been enlisted and the 26 00:01:27,430 --> 00:01:29,180 number of disks involved, 27 00:01:29,180 --> 00:01:33,510 there's going to be a certain level of resiliency that's put in here. Storage 28 00:01:33,510 --> 00:01:38,980 Spaces Direct also supports tiered storage where you may have some storage 29 00:01:38,980 --> 00:01:42,140 that's solid state and some that's mechanical. 30 00:01:42,140 --> 00:01:45,520 I'm actually running out of compliance with Microsoft in 31 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:50,230 my lab because all I have are mechanical SAS disks, I 32 00:01:50,230 --> 00:01:52,840 don't have any solid state disks. 33 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:58,190 So that is the default Cluster Virtual Disk that was created, again, 34 00:01:58,190 --> 00:02:02,970 through that single command, Enable‑ClusterStorageSpacesDirect, it 35 00:02:02,970 --> 00:02:06,710 really does a lot of heavy lifting. But I'm going to right‑click here, 36 00:02:06,710 --> 00:02:11,520 the Pool, and do New Virtual Disk. This asks us first, all right, what 37 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:12,890 pool are you talking about? 38 00:02:12,890 --> 00:02:13,050 Well, 39 00:02:13,050 --> 00:02:17,440 we only have one. Let me click Next, and I'm going to call this 40 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:28,300 vm‑csv‑disk, and I'm going to do 80 for the size, and then we'll 41 00:02:28,300 --> 00:02:32,800 click Create. You can see that begin to populate down below in 42 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,540 the virtual disk list. 43 00:02:34,540 --> 00:02:38,800 Now the virtual disk is akin to a partition. 44 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,590 We now have to create a volume, 45 00:02:40,590 --> 00:02:43,940 which is laying down a file system, and that kind of stuff. 46 00:02:43,940 --> 00:02:47,930 I'm going to select my Cluster, my Disk, let's click Next. 47 00:02:47,930 --> 00:02:50,280 I'm going to use all of that 80 gigs. 48 00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:55,560 I'm not going to assign a drive letter here, I'm going to use, ReFS, or the 49 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,930 Resilient File System's the only option, and I'm going to call this 50 00:02:58,930 --> 00:03:07,640 vm‑csv‑volume. Next, and Create. The volume is what we need to actually 51 00:03:07,640 --> 00:03:12,270 store data on, and I'm going to put a highly‑available virtual machine on 52 00:03:12,270 --> 00:03:15,130 it, and at this point it's fuzzy, isn't it? 53 00:03:15,130 --> 00:03:19,250 When you think about, whoa, well, where exactly is that storage? 54 00:03:19,250 --> 00:03:22,330 Well, is it coming from one node or another node? 55 00:03:22,330 --> 00:03:22,460 Well, 56 00:03:22,460 --> 00:03:29,000 we don't really need to worry about that due to that abstraction that's going on under the hood.
