When you are running Hyper-V in a failover cluster, you should always create the VMs in Failover Cluster Manager. If you create the VMs with Hyper-V Manager, you need to specify the location of the VMs configuration and virtual hard disk so they are located on a clustered shared volume.

Once your cluster is up and running and you have a Cluster Shared Volume (CSV), you must store your VMs in the CSV to make them highly available.

It's recommended to use Cluster Shared Volumes (CSV) for Live Migration storage for these reasons:

1. All cluster nodes have concurrent access to shared storage
2. Multiple VHDs can be stored on a single shared volume
3. No drive letter problems
4. Faster failovers

Live migration will only use one TCP stream between any pair of hosts. For faster live migration, use 10GbE NICs or migrate to multiple destinations over multiple 1GbE NICs.

The Hyper-V Failover Cluster should be created in the following order:

1. Configure physical NICs on both Hyper-V servers
2. Configure storage resources on both Hyper-V servers
3. Install Hyper-V role on each server
4. Install Failover Cluster feature on each server
5. Create the virtual networks used for the Virtual Machines
6. Validate the cluster configuration
7. Create the cluster

Redundancy for iSCSI connections is typically done with MPIO, not with bonding/teaming.

Physical NICs should be configured prior to creating the Hyper-V virtual network interfaces. The Virtual Networks can later be added using the Hyper-V Virtual Network Manager.

You can configure and manage failover clustering and live migration by using Server Manager on a Windows Server 2012 computer.

get-windowsfeature | findstr /i cluster 

dism /online /get-features | more                                   #to list FeatureName

dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:[FeatureName]

Example:

Install-WindowsFeature -Name Failover-Clustering

Or you can install from remote using below command:

Install-WindowsFeature -Name Failover-Clustering –ComputerName [YourServerName]

After your installation, you can verify the feature installation using the Get-WindowsFeature command:

get-windowsfeature | findstr /i cluster

Install Windows Server 2012.

Install the OOBE feature:

dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:OEM-Appliance-OOBE

Install the Hyper-V role and the Failover Clustering feature:
