If the cluster nodes are shipped from Dell Technologies with a preinstalled operating system, complete the out-of-box experience (OOBE):
- Select language and locale settings.
- Accept the Microsoft and OEM EULAs.
- Set up a password for the local administrator account.
- Update the operating system partition size, and shrink it as needed.
The Azure Stack HCI operating system factory image has multilingual support for these languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Korean, Japanese, Polish, and Italian. To change language:
-
Run the following PowerShell commands. <LANGUAGE> can be en-US, fr-FR, ja-JP, ko-KR, de-DE, pl-PL, it-IT, or es-ES.
Set-WinUserLanguageList <LANGUAGE> Set-WinSystemLocale -systemlocale <LANGUAGE>
- Reboot after running the commands.
Note: For all of the languages except Polish, the main screen changes to the appropriate font. For Polish, the English font is used.
If you purchased a license for a secondary operation system to run your virtual machines, the VHD file is located in the C:\Dell_OEM\VM folder. Copy this VHD file to a virtual disk in your Azure Stack HCI cluster and create virtual machines using this VHD.
Note: Do not run your virtual machine with the VHD file residing on the BOSS device (for example, c:\). It should always be on c:\clusterstorage\<VD1>
