To install Hyper-V on Windows Server 2016, you install the Hyper-V feature. In this recipe, you do the set up remotely from a client machine using the Hyper-V cmdlets and PowerShell's remoting capabilities.
For this recipe, you need to have the host computers on which you install Hyper-V. This recipe uses two servers, HV1 and HV2. Each server is a member of the domain on which you have added no additional services. As an alternative to having two systems running, you could use embedded Hyper-V and create the two VMs inside a third.
To demonstrate remote configuration, you perform this recipe from a third computer, CL1 running Windows 10 (Anniversary Update). This recipe makes use of a second hard disk, an H: drive on the HV1 and HV2 systems that you use to store Hyper-V VMs and virtual disks.
You need the Hyper-V tools on CL1—add them using the Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature and use the -Online switch, as follows:
# Add windows optional...
