Your network contains an Active Directory domain named contoso.com. The domain
contains two servers named Server1 and Server2 that run Windows Server 2012 R2.
Server1 is a file server that has the Hyper-V server role installed.
Server1 hosts several virtual machines. The virtual machine configuration files are stored on
drive D and the VHD files are stored on drive E.
You plan to replace drive E with a larger volume.
You need to ensure that the virtual machines on Server1 remain available while drive E is
being replaced.
What should you do?
A.
Perform a quick migration.
B.
Add Server1 and Server2 as nodes in a failover cluster.
C.
Perform a live migration.
D.
Perform a storage migration.
Explanation:
D) Hyper-V in Windows Server 2012 R2 introduces support for moving virtual machine
storage without downtime by making it possible to move the storage while the virtual
machine remains running.

“In Windows Server 2008 R2, you can move a running instance of a virtual machine using live migration, but you are not able to move the virtual machine’s storage while the virtual machine is running.”
A little confused. Wouldn’t live migration also move the storage? Because you can’t run the VM without its storage, right?

Live migration is for clusters.

No need to be confused. You are not being asked to move the VM therefore no need to do a live migration. You are being asked to ensure the VMs remain running whilst you replace drive E (Where the VHD/storage files are currently stored). As it is a server running 2012 R2 you can do a storage migration of the VHD files on E drive without downtime, replace E drive, do storage migration back to larger E drive if you wish to although this is not specified in the requirements of the question
seemples; innit 😉
