Virtualizing the first Domain Controller with Replica Environment

Hi everyone,

I would like to ask one question about to virtualize the first Domain Controller in a replica Scenario. I've seen many post and also I asked a few questions related with this but I think this is a bit different.

I'm going to explain my idea and the problems relationated with this. I want to implement 2 servers Hyper-V with the names: HV2K1201 and HVW2K1202.

And inside of HVW2K1201 create 2 VM's, one with the First Domain Controller(DC1) and the another one with Exchange 2010 (EX2010).

My idea, is to have replicated the 2 VM's of de HVW2K1201 to the another server Hyper-V HVW2K1202. But here is the "problem", in all the documents I've read say the two only ways to implement the replica is with Kerberos (Domain Infraestructure) and certificate. Then, If i want to implement it with the Domain Infraestructure I can see that I can not have the first DC (DC1) in a virtual machine, right? Because then, the server HVW2K1201 can not be in a domain environment, then can not create the replica...

If you have doubts, you can see the attached file of my desired schema.

Thanks to all for your help.
