The virtual machine included with this course will execute in Hyper-V only! To import the virtual machine using the included setup utility, you must be running Hyper-V on Windows Server 2008 R2. Execute BizTalkDevCourse.exe and BizTalkDevCOurseVM.part01.exe and extract the files to a root folder (i.e. C:\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2010 Training). In the Setup folder there is an application that will add all the VMs into Hyper-V. The app does this while maintaining only a single copy of the base images. To install, open a command promt with the "Run as Administrator" option and change directory to the setup folder. The import will fail if you do not run the command prompt with this option. Then run the command: importVM.exe For example, if the root of the labs is c:\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2010 Training, then the command would be: importVM.exe "C:\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2010 Training\VM\common\BizTalk2010Demo.vhd" After the virtual machines are imported, you should increase the number of virtual processors and the memory of the virtual machine if you it is available on the host. This will improve the performance of the labs.
