Why do I need to install RSAT on Windows 8.1 for accessing Hyper-V Server 2012 R2?

Since Windows 8.1 has Hyper-V Platform and Hyper-V Manager built in to it, if I just enable the Hyper-V Manager on my Windows 8.1 client machine I should be able to access the standalone Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 (which I'm planning to install on my 2nd machine)
right?  
Then why every article I found on this suggests to install RSAT on my client machine?

Hi Nero,
RSAT is used for these server/client can not enable hyper-v role  to manage the corresponding hyper-v server .
Please refer to following supported OS list of
client hyper-v :
Windows 8 Pro 64-bit Edition
Windows 8 Enterprise 64-bit Edition
Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit Edition
Windows 8.1 Enterprise 64-bit Edition

  • What driver or software patches do i need to install in my windows 7 laptop, in order for the laptop to capture Bluetooth messages, which is possible with window 8?

    Hi,
    i am connecting a Bluetooth device to my laptop. I notice that Message Analyzer could capture Bluetooth messages only if I am using windows 8? I am using window 7. What driver or software patches do i need to install in my windows 7 laptop, in order for
    the laptop to capture Bluetooth messages, which is possible with window 8?
    Also, i notice that using window 8, i am able to capture Bluetooth message but i am not able to display wireless perfromance statistics such as signal strength, throughput, etc? Is there a way for me to get such information.
    Please help.

  • Is X-windows and GUI desktops supported on the ODA "engineered system" running a RAC database?  If it is, what is the yum command needed to install the X-windows, Gnome, and KDE package groups?

    Is X-windows and GUI desktops supported on the ODA "engineered system" running a RAC database?  If it is, what is the yum command needed to install the X-windows, Gnome, and KDE package groups?

    While I agree with the direction of the suggestions with installing packages for X-windows, we do not have a blanket 'apply any package' recommendation.
    In particular we do not support altering the kernel (although we do have exceptions which we review on a case by case basis).
    Basically, if the you want to alter functionality that would not impact core functionality you are usually fine.
    A good guideling is : The more dependencies that there are between the package / rpm you are considering using the higher the potential impact on functionality - meaning higher chance for problems
    Note: We do use VNC including Real and Tiger regularly , but we have no hard recommendation on how you may want to use X-windows. I have never seen a limitation other than comments on bugs
    or incompatibility within the X-window product itself with certain kernel levels.
    Patching may overwrite some packages that you may install, however,  _depending on packages/rpms added_ there is also the possibility that you will break existing functionality to the point
    that patching itself will fail ( we have already seen a few cases of this in which case the proper mitigation is to remove / roll-back any alterations to the ODA before patching, and then adding the packages/rpms
    back after the patching is completed.
    From what you are discussing the impact should be low without conflicts, but please consider the above, and if you have specific packages which you consider potential problems
    please create an SR so that we can review packages / rpms on an individual basis.
    Once again: the main criteria for not supporting rpms is regarding the kernel itself

  • I need help installing flash on windows 8

    I need help installing flash on windows 8

    Chris… No I was using the desktop version, I cannot stand the M version, guess it would be nice if I had  a touch screen..…when I finally got my computer to download the Acrobat Standard XI program, not sure how it worked, but I think it had something to do with Windows 8 not allowing itself to update all my apps and programs, even though my computer was set to automatically update any Windows/Microsoft updates…finally I got my Windows updates done, it downloaded like 36 files…and then I had to restart,(which also could have been playing a factor)…so finally got the program downloaded on Windows 8…but then I tried to run the new program and it says install serial #...so I assume that it was asking for the serial # for the Acrobat Standard XI…finally after googling the web, I found somebody that said try your older serial # from the previous program, and when I did this it finally works.. you would think with a brand new Windows computer I would have no problem installing Windows Updates…somebody needs to make a sticky about this, I am sure I am not the only one haiving this problem..

  • Cannot revert to Windows 8 after installing Hyper-V Server 2012 R2

    I own a laptop with a pre-installed Windows 8. I've installed Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 on top of it by mistake, and now I would like to get rid of it and revert it back to Windows 8. I've tried doing so by a backup USB, though it doesn't seem to work. Is there

  • How to go back to Win 8.1 after installing Hyper-V server 2012 r2

    Hi. I installed Hyper-v server 2012 R2 on a Toshiba running windows 8.1 64bit and now I can not go back to windows 8.1. Every time i start the computer it asks for my password and opens system32/cmd.exe and sconfig.cmd consoles

    Did the Toshiba come with Windows 8.1 preinstalled? If yes it possibly has the recovery partition in place that you would use for recovery. I'm assuming if it was an accident then you did the in-place upgrade procedure.
    Look at your Toshiba documentation for the procedure to restore.
    If you want to add Hyper-V to windows 8.1 in the future, you use programs and features. Then turn the feature on.

  • Why Win2k8 R2 VM on Hyper-V Server 2012 behaves erratically?

    Hello, 
    I realized this strange problem with Windows 2008 R2 VMs running on Hyper-V Server 2012. My Hyper-V Server 2012 host has been running mix of VMs just fine. I've a Linux VM running, a couple of Windows 2012 R2 VMs, a Windows 8. 
    I created three new VMs, gave them decent hardware. 4 GB of RAM each. A fixed VHDX file of 40 GB. I left processor allocation to Hyper-V. Windows 2008 R2 ISO was mounted to all three. Installation started. The VMs were plugged into an external network to
    access internet for Windows activation and software updates. 
    Installation went smooth. I could log on and kick off windows updates installation. it took a reboot but when it came back, strange things started happening. 
    First, after VM won't respond to CTRL+ALT+DEL command from the VM console; saying 'VM doesn't did not respond to command'. I inserted integration start up disk from Media Menu on VM's console window. It allowed me to log on this time. I continued
    to download/install windows updates to update and complete that. All important updates were selected (even in first step above) and none of optional update was selected.
    This round of updates download/install updates finished and VM rebooted. Again, when it became available it stopped responding to any of commands sent to VM, Reset, Stop,Shut down, Turn off and won't allow CTRL+ALT+DEL. Strangely this time it didn't
    like accepting mounting integration services start up disk. The message displayed; when any of these actions were performed, is "RPC service not available".
    What could go wrong with Windows 2008 R2 VM created just now behaving like this?
    Did someone experience issues like this with just built Windows 2008 R2 VMs? Please share and advise.
    Thanks.
    Regards, 
    Shahzad.

    Hi Adam,
    Indeed it is odd. The flow has been following, and I doubt any of these steps had caused any issue.
    Step 1. VM started, booted from ISO, installed OS, Reboot. (usual)
    Step 2. VM became available, password configured, logged on, checked DHCP assigned TCP/IP Settings.
    Step 3. WUAPP invoked to download install updates, updates required reboot, VM rebooted.
    Step 4. VM became available, won't respond to CTRL+ALT+DEL  (In hyper-V VM console DEL is replaced by End). 
    Step 5. Integration startup disk inserted, waited couple of seconds, VM allowed CTRL+ALT+DEL.
    Step 6. WUAPP invoked again to continue download/install of updates, it finished, VM rebooted.
    Step 7. VM became available, won't respond to any command sent to VM from console, just complains (RCP Service not available). Won't accept integration startup disk even. 
    BTW, the ISO used is trial edition of Win2k8 R2; popularly available for download, the
    180 days trial edition. 
    I couldn't get to stage to assign IP to VM, because I wanted to install all important updtes before I do any thing else. 
    Regards, 
    Shahzad.

    Hi Jeff,
    I check the cbs.log you posted, and found the packages with KO-KR in the name fail to depoly, which indicated the installer was looking for Korean language pack files.
    Solution: A quick trip to Control Panel-Clock, Language and Region-Add a Language and we could select and then install the Korean language.  Tip: double click on the language when it's added to the list to auto-download
    from Microsoft. 
    Refer to:
    Windows Server 2012 - Roles, Features and 0x80073701
    If there is anything else regarding this issue, please feel free to post back.

  • Why do we need to install java during sap installation

  • Why do callers need to install "whistle"?

    I cannot reproduce this myself.  But I have an online number from Skype, and I've verified that it works at least from my land line: when I run Skype on my Android phone, and dial my online number from my land line, I hear a ringing sound from the land line (just as if I'd called any other number), and my Android phone vibrates and displays a Skype screen that tells me that there's an incoming call.  This is all exactly what I'd expect.
    However, the one other person who has ever tried to call my Skype number says that he doesn't hear a ringing sound, but instead gets a recorded voice telling him that he needs to install something called "Whistle" on his computer.  This makes no sense to me, as his phone isn't connected to his computer in any way that I know of.
    Can anyone explain this?

    Which version of Java do you already have installed?
    Java 1.6.0_12 or higher?

  • Do I need to install CS3 on Windows 7 64 bit before installing CS5 Upgrade?

    I am replacing a graphic designer's Windows Vista laptop with a Dell Precision T5500 desktop.  Do I need to uninstall CS3 from the laptop and decommission the serial number?  Then do I need to install CS3 on the new desktop before installing the CS5 upgrade?  I was told I needed to decommission the installation, but I don't remember having to do that with other installations.  Thanks in advance!

    You should definetly deactivate any software before uninstalling. But you don't have to install CS3 in order to install CS5. Just have the serial number handy for verification. That said, depending upon the user's needs, you might want to leave CS3 available.

  • Temporary wim-files for multicast transmissions still needed for WDS installation in Server 2012 R2?

    Acording to
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn281955.aspx one of the new features for WDS in Server 2012 R2 for multicast is:
    Improved multicast deployment by eliminating the need for making a local copy of the install.wim file. You can apply the install.wim file while it is being downloaded without significant impact to the application process.
    However, this doesn't seem to be activated by default and I still get the following error when installing one or more machines using multicast:
    "Windows Setup cannot locate a valid hard drive to store temporary installation files." However, once I remove Multicast from this install image, it installs without any problems at all.
    I have also noticed that while multicasting, the installation will use the "Copying Windows files" phase, while downloading and copying the install.wim (or whatever name it is) locally on the hard drive first, so this will require lots of space.
    So the question is, how do you enable this new feature that should be a part of WDS in Server 2012 R2???

    Full version:
    Following steps could help enable the feature:
    1.       Mount the boot image using dism.
    e.g.
    >dism /mount-wim /wimfile:c:\remoteinstall\boot\x64\images\boot.wim /index:2 /mountdir:c:\mount
    2.       Create a metadata file if no existing one. The metadata file should be in mountdir from the first step under mountdir\sources. And the file name should be: WdsClientMetadata.txt
    3.       Add entry to the metadata file: WDS.Client.Multicast.WIM.Streaming.Enabled=true
    4.       Save changes and unmount the boot image
    e.g.
    >dism /unmounts-wim /mountdir:c:\mount /commit
    Sorry for the late reply, but I had to test this thoroughly since I didn't get it working right away. I tried both the regedit you first mentioned, and later also creating a textfile in the "/index:2 boot.wim", both without any success. I noticed
    that creating the sources\WdsClientMetadata.txt with the data "WDS.Client.Multicast.WIM.Streaming.Enabled=true" gives me an error upon booting into WDS as follows (EUFI/IPv6-boot):
    Same happens if I boot using IPv4 (an non-UEFI boot), except that there would be a plain IPv4-address instead in the error msg. Just for troubleshooting I tried writing WDS.Client.Multicast.WIM.Streaming.Enabled=false in the file instead, and WDS would throw
    me the exact same error message. Once I delete the file sources\WdsClientMetadata.txt from the WDS/Boot image, the client boots ok, both for IPv4/IPv6. Disabling the firewall on the WDS didn't help, so something in the configuration is still missing? I'm getting
    to a dead end here, and I suppose you're all out of advice on this one?
    Thank you Shaon Shan for your great effort so far.
