How to: Change the Library Share for Your Team Project Collections
You can use the library shares in the System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) library as a place to create and store the virtual machines, templates, and environments in your team projects. You use SCVMM to create and manage the library shares and to specify on which computer a library share is located.
After you have configured Lab Management for the first time, you might later want to change the library shares that are used by your team project collection.
Poznámka
To configure Lab Management for the first time, see Configuring Lab Management for the First Time.
Using SCVMM, you can create multiple library shares on a single library server. The library shares enable you to allocate the disk space on your library server. If you do this you can allocate disk space for each team project collection. You can add multiple library shares to each team project collection. For example, you can add an extra library share from a different library server to a specific team project collection to provide more disk space for the environments, virtual machines, and templates for the teams that use that team project collection. If you are maximizing the network bandwidth to a specific library server for your team project collection, you may want to add a library share from another library server. Or, you might want to add a library share that has been added to a library server in a different physical location.
Poznámka
For improved performance, it is better to locate library shares and host groups in the same physical location. For example, if you have a distributed team with half your team located in one country and the other half in another country, then it is more efficient to have library shares and host groups that are physically located in each of those countries and have the team members use the library shares that are located together in their country. You can change the library shares by using the Administration Console for Team Foundation. Or, you can use the command-line to accomplish the same task. For more information about the command-line utility TFSLabConfig, see Configuring Lab Management with TFSLabConfig.
Use the following procedure to change the library shares for your team project collection using the Administration Console for Team Foundation. For each library share that you add that is located on a different library server, you must also run the steps in the procedure to improve the reliability of WinRM.

To add or remove library shares for a team project collection
In the Team Foundation Administration Console, under Application Tier, click Team Project Collections.
In the right-side pane, click the appropriate team project collection from the list of project collections.
Click the Lab Management tab, and then click Configure Library Shares.
Poznámka
You must create a library share using SCVMM before you can add this to be used by your team project collection.
To add a library share, on the Library Shares tab, click Add and Verify.
The Select Library Shares dialog box is displayed.
Click one or more SCVMM library shares that this team project collection will use, and then click Add.
To add the library share to each team project in the team project collection, select Auto Provision for the library share.
Poznámka
If you select to auto provision the library share, Team Foundation Server automatically adds the library share to all the team projects in this team project collection. For team projects that have not yet been created, the library share is added when the New Team Project wizard creates the project. For team projects that have already been created in this team project collection, the library share is added when these settings are saved. If you clear Auto Provision the library share will no longer be added to new team projects that you add to your team project collection.
To delete a library share, on the Library Shares tab, select the library share from the list, and then click Delete.
Důležité
Before you can delete a library share from a team project collection, you must first remove all Lab Management environments, virtual machines and templates that are stored on this library share using Microsoft Test Manager. Then you must remove the association of this library share from each team project in that project collection by using the command-line utility TFSLabConfig. For more information about how to do this, see TFSLabConfig DeleteTeamProjectLibraryShare Command.
To confirm that Visual Studio Team Foundation Server can connect to the library share, click Verify.
Click OK.
Improve the Reliability of WinRM
You must make following changes to the default configuration settings for Windows Remote Management for each library server that has library shares that you use for Lab Management. The changes to these settings help improve the reliability of WinRM because Lab Management performs a larger number of operations on Hyper-V hosts than are performed in a typical production scenario for Hyper-V.
To change Windows Remote Management configuration settings
Click Start, right-click Command Prompt, and then click Run as administrator.
Poznámka
You must be a domain user who has been added to the administrators group for this machine.
At the command prompt, run the following command:
winrm set winrm/config @{MaxTimeoutms = "1800000"}
If the host operating system is Windows Server 2008 SP2, also run the following command:
winrm set winrm/config/Service @{MaxConcurrentOperations="200"} -r:http://<LibraryServerMachine>
(Replace LibraryServerMachine with the computer name of the library server.)
Poznámka
To create a WinRM listener on http://<LibrayServerMachine>, you might also have to run the following command:
winrm quickconfig
Restart winrm and the SCVMM agent on the hosts after you make these changes using the following commands:
net stop winrm
net start winrm
net start vmmagent
