2.2 Deploying VHD
The Active System Manager Open Virtualization Format (VHD) can be imported on to a Hyper-V host
using the Hyper-V Manager > Import Virtual Machine option. When booted, the Active System Manager
VM gets its IP address from an existing DHCP server. If a DHCP server is not configured, manually assign
the IP address to the appliance.

To import the VHD from the Hyper-V Manager, perform the following steps:
1. On the Hyper-V Manager dialog box, select a host, right-click and select Import Virtual
Machine.
