One computer that meets the hardware and software specifications below is required to complete the guide; A second computer is recommended to validate the upgrade process.
The second computer (computer 2) is a client computer from your corporate network that is used to create VM that can be added to the POC environment. The VM is a mirror image of the computer on your corporate network, providing a realistic simulation of the upgrade process. If you do not have a computer to use for this simulation, you can create an arbitrary VM to represent this computer.

If your Hyper-V host is running Windows Server 2008 R2, several of the steps in this guide will not work because they use the Hyper-V Module for Windows PowerShell, which is not available on Windows Server 2008 R2.
This section is a placeholder for instructions to configure Hyper-V on Windows Server 2008 R2. Full documentation of these procedures is currently out of scope for this guide, due to significant differences in the Hyper-V role in Windows Server 2008 R2.
