2012 essentials r2: how to "manually" set up host and virtualized 2012e r2?

So 2012e r2 is supposed to make it easier to setup a virtualized server.
How do we set this up? Found this for OEM partners, but looking for "manual setup" directions:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/341bd905-1d99-4e3d-af16-04aadf9e9ab9/installing-windows-server-2012-essentials-r2-hyperv-role
Can one manually install hyper-v on essentials then setup VM, and then remove some roles to get back to a leaner host? I'd like to set this up manually and add particular drivers and Intel RST management, then remove roles
thanks

OK thanks!  Now some other questions:
1.  From what I have been able to determine, if I install Essentials as the DC and root of the domain/forest, I don't need to have CALS for up to 25 users and up to 50 devices (which I assume are other member servers?). I don't want to deal with CALS
and I have only about 15 users, but I have 3 to 5 servers, so this is what I think I want to do, install 2012 R2 Essentials as the DC and root of the domain. Am I right about the CAL issue, that I won't need them for member servers?
2.  I am migrating from SBS2008, and on the one SBS2008 server I have Exchange 2007 and SharePoint w/Companyweb.  I understand that I cannot install Exchange 2013 on the DC, and also that I have to do something with Sharepoint which also does not
come with Essentials.  So the question becomes whether to try to install these on VM's or to move them to member servers.  I've read a lot about using Essentials on VM, but it seems with only one VM I cannot install Essentials/Hyper V on the
physical server, and then install Essentials on VM1, and there is no other VM available for Exchange & SharePoint.  But then there is the suggestion in some forum responses to put Essentials as the VM1 of the 2012 R2 Std server, then put Exchange
& Sharepoint on VM2.  If this is done, does the Essentials on VM1 still operate like the DC/root of domain and eliminate the need for CALS or does this all change because it is residing on a 2012 R2 Standard physical server? Without CALS, how would
you log into the physical server to start up the VM1 w/Essentials?
3. With all this in consideration, maybe this is all just too complicated to recreate all the functions of SBS2008 on one physical server?  Could I not just install Essentials and SharePoint on the physical server used as the DC and root of domain and
then on a 2012 R2 member server install Exchange 2013. I can see now after going through the migration from SBS2003 to SBS2008 that having Exchange on it's own server will make upgrades in the future a lot easier.

    It says
    One way to preselect items is to call setSelectedValue(Object[]) or setSelectedValue(Object) from the prerender() method. You pass in the return values of the items that you want preselected. Be sure to verify that getSelected() returns null before setting the default options, or you will overwrite the user's selections on a post-back.

  • When creating a rectangle shap, how to manually set dimensions

    I am creating a rectangular shape with the tool (U).
    How can I manually set the dimensions (height and width).
    I know I can see the dimensions with the info button in the right side bar, bug I want to edit those values.
    Is this possible?

    You can set the dimensions before using the rectangle tool in the
    tool options bar (fixed size).
    Or you can change the dimensions after, by using the move tool or Edit<Free Transform Path
    and entering the dimensions in pixels (px) in the width and height boxes.

  • Windows Server 2012 Essentials - Office 365 Integration Module Set Up Error

    We receive an error when setting up the Office 365 Integration Module.  After we type in the admin credentials for Office 365, it attempts to configure, but then states it couldn't complete and try a reboot of the server.  We've rebooted multiple
    times, but still face same error.  The users in Exchange Online get displayed after closing and reopening the Dashboard, but no other settings like subscription/domain information are pulled into the dashboard.  When we click in Users on the Dashboard
    and attempt to assign an Office 365 account to an AD account, the Dashboard closes.  Any ideas on what's happening?  This Win 2012 Essentials has all Windows updates applied. 
    Thanks,
    Dave

    My Dashboard Issue was resolved (Susan Bradley Helped Generated A Support Ticket) when i asked the SharePoint Online support to revert my Primary's Site Language from Greek to English. I was one of the first to report this problem and i was working with
    Server support for almost 2 months. You don't have the option to set the Language of your Primary site while you activate your Office 365 Subscription. It enables the Primary Language from your Location settings i believe.
    Once My main SharePoint Master Site was revert to English (US) my Libraries synced OK with no Dashboard Crashing.....

  • How to manually set print ordered metadata?

    How do you manually set the Print ordered or printed metadata for apeture versions? I have ordered prints through other sites, (Costoc, Smugmug, Mpix...), and would like to be able to manualy set this flag for the images I have printed. Is there a way to do that or is a custom field the best I can do?

    Not that I know of (without mucking inside the Aperture package).  Sounds like a good use of a custom field, though.  You could put in the printing service and the date -- ex:  20120122 Costco, 20120122 Mpix -- and then sort on the field to get a list in order printed, or use a Filter HUD Rule to group by printing service.
    You can trigger the built-in Printed flag by ... printing-without-printing.  Set up a PDF Printing Workflow that doesn't actually print, and select it from the PDF menu on the second printer dialog that comes up.  You could likely automate the whole thing.

  • How do I set the print and paper size in iPhoto 5

    Can somebody please help. How do you set up iPhoto 5 so that you define both the the size of the print and the photo paper you use?
    For example, I wish to print a 4.5cm x 3.5 cm photo on 6x4 (or 15cm x 10cm to keep all the units the same) paper.
    I've seen a post saying how to do it in iPhoto 8, but the drop-downs are different.

    I do not remember the locations in iPhoto 5 but there are probably three places to mess with
    1 - set the paper size
    2 - set the print size
    3 - set the paper tray for the printer to use that has the paper size that you set in step 1
    these may be in the print sequence or under the file menu as page set up (or similar). If these are not obvious try the Help menu

  • I have two time capsules (1TB, 2TB) and want to use one for another set of Macs (my Family). How do I set both up and keep all the Macs from joining both Time Capsules?

    I Have two Time Capsules (1TB and 2TB) and want to set one for business and the other for family - networking seperate Macs to each.

    Both should be plugged into the network with ethernet.. if at all possible.
    If you have a router already then both bridged otherwise one set to router and one to bridge.
    How do you access the TC? Ethernet or wireless?
    Are they located in the same area?
    You could set different wireless networks.. if they use wireless.. this is nice easy way to do it.
    You can set user account in the TC you want the business one to join with.. that will prevent access by the family.
    So there is a number of ways.. none are particularly secure btw.. the TC is a home not a business device.. if anybody wants access they press the reset for one second.. pofff all the passwords are default for 5min.. to allow people who forget their password to get access.
    On ML you can encrypt TM backups.. this is better for security if that is the problem.. and still use different user profile to prevent access.

  • If I have manually set "Start Time" and "Stop Time" for songs, and my hard drive is backed up in Time Machine, when files/songs are transferred on new hard drive, will my "Start Time" "Stop Time" options be there?

    My Macbook Pro will be going in for reimaging and my hard drive will be wiped, I want to know if all my iTunes preferences will be copied if I have backed them up on Time Machine. Specifically, if I have set certain "Start Time" and "Stop Time" for my songs, and I copy my iTunes library, will these "Start Time" and "Stop Time" options remain or will I have to manually set them one by one once again? I need a reply ASAP! Thanks so much!

    As far as I'm aware the start & stop times are stored in the library database, not the media files. If you backup/restore/transfer the whole library then the settings are included. If you create a complete copy of your iTunes folder on another drive you can connect to that copy by holding down option/alt as you start iTunes so you can check that everything is working properly before you send the Macbook away.

  • How do I set up pixels and resolution to print out my illustration?

    I want to print my illustration which I'm going to paint on Photoshop 5 to the size of 8x10(inch) at Walgreens.com.  How do I set up the pixels and resolutions in Photoshop to start with?
    There was a guideline at Walgreens Photo site, and it says "Minimum Recommended Image Resolution for 8x10 (inch) is 900x720 pixels."  But when I set up the width and height of pixels to 900x720 and resolution at 360 and then painted there, the print outcome was chopped off at top and bottom (I selected 8x10 print size.)
    How can I set up the right way so I can print right?
    Thank you!
    -Mitama

    OK, it says minimum requirements. Which makes sense, the quality would be horrible below 112 ppi.
    8" x 200ppi = 1600px
    10" x 200ppi = 2000px
    900px / 8" = 112.5ppi
    720px / 10" = 72ppi
    Can you see in the above math why part of the picture would be chopped off.
    Lets do it this way:
    900px / 72ppi = 12.5"
    720px / 72ppi = 10"
    900px / 360ppi = 2.5"
    720px / 360pp = 2"
    10" X 360ppi = 3600px
    8" X 360ppi = 2880px
    If you specify ppi you must specify the physical dimensions (inches) Especially when the printed paper is a known variable. The pixel dimensions they mentioned was a guideline not a requirement. They only wanted to make sure the quality did not fall below that value.

  • How can I set up a share virtual printer on my macbook to print to pdf from my iPhone 5 or iPad?

    I've never had the occassion to use a virtual printer setup but I've seen where other people have when they need to print to pdf and have no printer available where they are.  So, my question is really a spin off of that type of situation, except I have a printer, I just don't want to print.  I want to save from my iPad or iPhone to my MacBook's hard drive in pdf format.  From what I've seen online, I would imagine it involves setting up a virtual printer on the MacBook that I can set up as a shared printer, but there are so many conflicting responses on setting up a virtual printer and most of them are for older.  Does anyone have any experience with setting up a similar virtual printer in Maverick?
    For completeness, I'll add system info:
    MackBook 5.2 Core 2 Duo 2 GHz upgraded with 4 GB DDR2 RAM and Maverick OS
    Obviously the virtual printer needs to support iPrint.

    If I can not set up a second Contacts folder, does anybody have an alternative way of having contact information that a person could see the information from an Outlook Format available for viewing?

  • How can I set my date and time to ebay network time server?

    In the system preferences I would like to set the date and time to ebay UK time?
    I thought a quick google would be bring up the server and I can't find it.
    At the bottom of every ebay page there is a link to official ebay time
    But its not a live feed of time to get it to the second.
    I want it to be accurate so that I can use applescript to snipe bargins.
    Many Thanks
    Matt

    Just trying to go along the free route. I found Garage Buy   This doesn't work to well but lets you create an applescript and enters the auction into ical. Then you can set ical to run the script once it gets closer to the time.
    Ical only lets you set a time of a minute before the date. So you have to edit the script to add a Delay 59 to have it run 1 second before. From a few refreshes of the time page it looks like ebay time is a second behind, that could be easily be due to time to load the page. anyway i'll opt for a delay of 57secs and give that a try.

  • How to change the full host and domain name on OS X Leopard...

    I recently bought an iMac, and I'm trying to configure it for my network. The question I have is, how can I change the host name and domain name from Skuld.local to skuld.tolharadys.net?
    After mucking around with a few searches on Google, I've gotten the domain name to stick since running domainname returns tolharadys.net. Also I can change the hostname as reported by 'hostname' temporarily by running 'hostname skuld.tolharadys.net' in Terminal.app. However, this isn't persistent after reboots. Ideas are welcome.

    You would need a DNS server on your network configured to answer authoritatively for that particular subdomain.
