CONFIGURATION DETAILS
VIRTUAL MACHINE STARTUP
The Virtual Machine has been configured to ensure that all applications and services will work in a fully
integrated configuration from first login. Various optimization scripts have been provided in the
C:\Resources\Startup and C:\Resources\Scripts directory to allow startup/shutdown of applications and
services as scenarios require.

PERFORMANCE
It is recommended that the Virtual machine is run with a minimum of 12 GB of memory, 2 virtual
processors and from a fast hard drive such as SSD. Additionally, it is recommended that the Virtual
Machine drive be hosted on a hard disk that is separate than the host OS drive via either internal bus or a
fast external bus such as eSATA or USB 3.0.
The Virtual Machine will run a warm-up script as a scheduled task when the starts up. This warm-up
script does some key tasks such as ensuring the network cards have the appropriate binding order, all the
dependent services are started and key web sites are pre-loaded. The warm-up script uses the
configuration found in "C:\Resources\Startup\StartupConfig.xml" and runs the PowerShell in
"C:\Resources\Startup\Startup.ps1".
All unnecessary services for the core demo scenarios have been shut down or disabled to ensure optimal
performance. The services were configured using the values found in the Core section of
"C:\Resources\Startup\ServicesConfig.xml" and run by the "C:\Resources\Startup\Services.ps1"
PowerShell. The "C:\Resources\Startup\ServicesConfig.xml" has several sections for enabling and
disabling various scenarios and can be customized as needed. Simply run the associated shortcut in
C:\Resources\Startup\Shortcuts that applies to the scenario you wish to demonstrate. Once youve run
the script it is recommended to reboot the machine to allow all the dependent services to load in the
correct order and allow the warm-up script to also run.
