Advanced configuration

Use advanced configuration tasks to further customize the configuration of Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V.

Configuring non-default port numbers for Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V operations
If you do not want to use the default port numbers for the Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V web server or REST API services, you can configure different port numbers by using Windows PowerShell cmdlets.
Tuning scheduled VM backups for Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 clusters
Beginning with Data Protection for Microsoft Hyper-V version 8.1.2, you can back up more virtual machines (VMs) in parallel and across nodes in a cluster. A cluster node backup operation always retries the snapshot on volumes with snapshots that failed with a recoverable condition. You can also tune the number of VMs in a snapshot to reduce the workload of a snapshot for the Hyper-V host.
