Once the ''Add'' button is pressed, the hard drive settings will appear. As illustrated in the following figure, the hard drive settings screen provides the option to create a Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) file, or to ''Assign a physical hard disk'', the latter being the option we need. At this point it is possible that this configuration option will be disabled. This is most likely because the disk is in question is currently online. To take the disk offline, open the Server Manager for the host system and click on ''Storage -> Disk Management'' in the left hand panel. In the main panel, right click on the disk name in the graphical section of the view and select ''Offline'' from the menu.
Once the disk is offline, the ''Assign a physical hard disk'' option will be enabled. Select this option, choose the appropriate disk drive from the drop down list and click ''Apply'' to commit the change. The virtual machine has now been assigned a physical disk for its storage purposes.
Once installation method has been selected, click ''Next'' to proceed to the summary screen. Review the information provided and click ''Finish'' to complete the installation process. Once the virtual machine is created, it may be started by double clicking on the corresponding name in the Hyper-V Manager ''Virtual Machines'' list. Once the Virtual Machine Connection dialog appears, click on the ''Start'' button to power on the machine.
