Configuring Virtual Machines
Configuring virtual machines
Each virtual machine uses emulated hardware and virtual components. The emulated hardware is provided by Virtual Server 2005 and cannot be modified. However, you can modify the virtual components, such as COM ports and network adapters. This section describes these components and how to view or modify their configuration.
You can also configure the virtual disks that provide storage for a virtual machine. For more information, see Configuring Virtual Disks for Virtual Machines.
