Hyper-V enabled during task sequence

[SuperduperPackager]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to enable Hyper-V during a task sequence using powershell and this command:

 

Enable-WindowsOptionalFeature -Online -FeatureName:Microsoft-Hyper-V -All

 

Can't get it to work, the task sequence just hangs on this step. has anyone done this already?

Assuming you are using MDT (not sure about SCCM but should be similar), you can use the 'Install Roles & Features' task sequence step to do this. Check all the Hyper-V boxes and it should install/enable hyper-v for you (Don't forget to update the deployment share!)

You will need to make sure the firmware for the computer you are trying to deploy to has the virtualisation option enabled.

Why would you have to update the deployment share if it's just a TS step change you are adding?
