In Hyper-V 2.0, we have to export VM so that we can re-create the VM and attach the VHD when disaster happens in the future. Before do the export VM, we also have to shutdown this VM so that the related Service in this VM will be stopped then. This mechanism is not smart and the function is less than VMWare Product.
Since Hyper-V 3.0 release, we just only point to the path with the associated VM files so that VM can be live after power on.
How to do it?
Copy the backup VM files to the default folder that store VM configuration files in Hyper-V 3.0 Server.
(# 1)

Open
Hyper-V Manager and click one Hyper-V Server that will locate his VM next to click
Import Virtual Machine link

In
Before You Begin page, click
Next > button

In
Locate Folder page, click
Browse… button

Select the specify path that with xml file next to click
Select Folder button

Click
Next > button to go ahead next step if the folder containing the VM is right

In
Select Virtual Machine page, select the VM that will be imported next to click
Next > button

Due to the VM and its files have already been in the right place, we will choose
Register option that just want to register VM’s unique ID with Hyper-V. After choosing the import type, click
Next > button to go ahead the next step.

So do that we will complete the Import Wizard.

Now the imported VM will exist in this Hyper-V Server.

Start this VM by click
Start link in Actions panel

Next to click
Connect … link

The imported VM will be live and normal now.
