Note from the Author or Editor:
The information on Page 44 that indicates that dynamically expanding VHDs and IDE-connected VHDs cannot exceed 127 GB is incorrect. The limitation applied in Virtual Server 2005. In Hyper-V, VHDs are limited to 2040 GB regardless of the virtual disk interface.

first 3 paragraph

at page 588, at first lane it reads :

following are some examples of how to use the command-line parameters for the "Add-VMNewHardDisk" Function......

but as we see the second and third commands are "New-VHD" and not "Add-VMNewHardDisk" !

Note from the Author or Editor:
In the second and third commands listed at the top of page 588, the "New-VHD" command is a typo. The "New-VHD" command should be replaced with "Add-VMNewHardDisk".
