The following commands can be run to change the checkpoint with PowerShell. Right click on a virtual machine and select settings.This document uses checkpoint, however be aware that you may see similar commands using the term snapshot. Note: The Hyper-V PowerShell module has several aliases so that checkpoint and snapshot can be used interchangeably. Production checkpoints are selected by default however this can be changed using either Hyper-V manager or PowerShell. No snapshot of the virtual machine memory state is taken. Production Checkpoints: uses Volume Shadow Copy Service or File System Freeze on a Linux virtual machine to create a data-consistent backup of the virtual machine. Hyper-V only offered standard checkpoints (formerly called snapshots) prior to Windows 10.

A snapshot is not a full backup and can cause data consistency issues with systems that replicate data between different nodes such as Active Directory. Standard Checkpoints: takes a snapshot of the virtual machine and virtual machine memory state at the time the checkpoint is initiated. Windows 10 Hyper-V includes two types of checkpoints: If a system change were to cause an issue, the virtual machine can be reverted to the state at which it was when then checkpoint was taken. You may want to create a virtual machine checkpoint before making software configuration changes, applying a software update, or installing new software. In Hyper-V this is done through the use of virtual machine checkpoints. One of the great benefits to virtualization is the ability to easily save the state of a virtual machine.
