Cannot install GUI to Hyper-V 2012 R2 server core

Hi everyone,
I have followed this article to convert a server core install to have a GUI installed:
http://andersonpatricio.ca/enabling-and-disabling-the-graphical-interface-in-hyper-v-server-core/
When I run the powershell command:
Install-WindowsFeature Server-Gui-Mgmt-Infra -Source C:\Sources\Windows\Winsxs
I get the following error:
PS C:\> Install-WindowsFeature Server-Gui-Mgmt-Infra -Source C:\Sources\Windows\
Winsxs
Install-WindowsFeature : ArgumentNotValid: The role, role service, or feature
name is not valid: 'Server-Gui-Mgmt-Infra'. The name was not found.

I have checked if there is a folder called Winsxs under c:\sources\windows and it is not there. Looks like the install.win file does not have it.
There is no bloody way of installing a GUI onto HypervCore.
If anyone has had any success with this, I would like to hear from you.
Many Thanks

I think you might be right.
I even tried a large install.wim image and tried the following command after mounting the image onto a mount point:
install-windowsfeature server-gui-mgmt-infra,server-gui-shell -source c:
\wimmount\windows\winsxs
I go this error:

There is a lot of confusion between Windows 2012 R2 Hyper-v Core and just the Hyper-V R2 hypercore free edition.
Those commands are going to work for the first option. The free version cannot have a GUI.
The only way I can fix this by removing this hypervisor and and installing Windows 2012 r2 with hyperv role, restore the configs and the VMs.
Thanks for all your help.

Hyper-v 2012 R2 server core recommendations for single server setup

Hi All,
Next weekend I will be installing a brand new Dell 720 server for a client of mine.
I would like to hear some recommendations on how to install this hypervisor.
Let me state that I have had some experience with virtualization technology in the past with VMWARE ESXi.
This is a small client with under 10 users but I have learned that with the 2012 product offering you cannot get Small Business Server any more. I know Microsoft has Windows server 2012 Essentials but you would have to have Exchange server in the cloud which
my client does not want. He wants to run his Exchange server in house.
Also he needs Remote Desktop Services (Terminal Server) because his accounting application requires it.
He has an existing Windows 2003 domain controller that eventually has to be decommissioned because it is too old and slow.
So I thought I install Hyper-v 2012 R2 core on the new server and then create 2 VMs:
1) Windows 2012 STD to run as a secondary domain controller.
2) Windows 2012 STD member server with Exchange server 2013 and Remote Desktop Services role.
My questions here are these:
1) Do I install the Hypervisor in workgroup or domain mode?
2) When I am finished with the old server do I transfer the AD FSMO roles onto the VM that is acting as a domain controller?
The new server has 2 CPUs. How does Microsoft licensing go here? I know that Windows 2012 STD gives me 2 instances with the same product key on the same server for 1 CPU. What happens if you have 2?
Can someone give me some insight on how to go about this? I remember that I found this easier with VMWARE Esxi.
Now with Hyper-V I need to also get a management workstation with Windows 8 professional on it to manage the Hyper-V core server.
Thanks and regards
Alfred

In regard to the VM's:
1.) DC: If you're going to be installing a second domain controller that is 2012 R2, you might consider reading this guide first.
http://msmvps.com/blogs/mweber/archive/2012/07/30/upgrading-an-active-directory-domain-from-windows-server-2003-or-windows-server-2003-r2-to-windows-server-2012.aspx
2.) Exchange: Here's the guide for installing Exchange 2013 on Server 2012. I don't believe R2 is supported yet for 2013.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/14506.how-to-install-exchange-2013-on-windows-server-2012.aspx
3.) Host: You'd install the host in domain mode....but that point may be moot after you read #5.
4.) FSMO: I would verify the health of the 2012 DC before moving the roles. All too often I'll see a new DC get stood up, sysvol won't be published, the engineer will be in a rush to move the FSMO's, and things get a little sideways. Ultimately
you don't HAVE to move the FSMO's until you are ready to decommission the 2003 box.
5.) Licensing: No licensing rights convey with Hyper-V Core, so this may not be best for your scenario. See the queen mother of all Hyper-V licensing posts here -
http://www.aidanfinn.com/?p=13090
For what it's worth, plenty of SMB's are going to Office 365 to avoid the on-prem administration headache, but your client wants what your client wants. Sorry if this isn't the news you wanted but I hope it helps.

Hyper V manager on 2008 R2 connect to 2012 R2 server core hyper V without domain

Dear all
I am using Hyper V manager on 2008 R2.
Now I have one 2012 R2 server core hyper V without domain, I want to manage this server core hyper V with Hyper V manager on 2008 R2.
When I add/connect, it display credential wrong. (use command net use drive works)
May I know is it a must to join domain?
thx
Q K

You're saying you want to use Hyper-V Manager on 2008R2 to manage 2012R2 Hyper-V, correct? If so, unfortunately this is by design:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2012/05/30/the-v2-wmi-namespace-in-hyper-v-on-windows-8.aspx
You'll have to use the built-in tools in Windows 8.1 to manage 2012 R2 Hyper-V remotely. Here's the support matrix:

Hyper-V on Windows Server Core

Hi, Im new to the Windows Server 2012 Core edition. But I have found out that I can install Hyper-v on a Windows Server Core edition.
I guess its possible to run Core edition with Hyper-V installed on a laptop. But can I run the VM´s with GUI directly on the Core edition or do I need another computer to manage the VM´s with GUI installed on the hyper-v host?

It's recommended to remove the GUI from your Windows 2012 R2 server that you intend to use as a Hyper-V host. It should have the Hyper-V and related roles only such as iSCSI initiator and MPIO. Management should be done from a Windows 8.1 VM with RSAT
tools installed. This can be a VM on the same Hyper-V host or another one, or a physical machine. The Hyper-V hosts and Windows 8.1 machine should belong to the same Windows domain.
The GUI can be added and removed as any other role on Windows 2012 R2 server.
See this post for more details.

AD FS on 2012 R2 Server Core - management tools

So it seems in 2012 R2, AD FS is now able to be installed in Server Core, I'm assuming because it's no longer part of IIS. However, managing it on Server Core seems "limited" to the use of PowerShell. This is ok but a GUI option from a
client would be nice too. Does anyone know a way to have the MMC snap-in for AD FS on a remote client for management purposes?

Hi,
According to this ms article, i am not find the ad fs is not available on windows server 2012r2 server core:
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/hh831786
Regards.
Vivian Wang
No, you can indeed installed ADFS on 2012 R2 Server Core - I did it. The problem was that the GUI management tools (obviously) aren't available on a pure Server Core install and there doesn't appear to be the ability to use the MMC Add-In from
a client so you're "stuck" using PowerShell to manage it on the ADFS server.
Using PowerShell to manage it isn't a big deal, but as I'm learning about ADFS, I figured a GUI element would be nice to confirm what I've done in PowerShell translated properly to what the various guides give. Arguably, learning on a full GUI server
would have been the better option but, I'm stretched for resources in my Lab environment so this VM needed to consume less resources - which is why I went with Server Core.
Anyway, to get around this, I installed the feature "Graphical Management Tools and Infrastructure." The server is still Server Core, but it now has the ability to run MMC on the server itself, which means I now have the GUI ADFS management
tool on the server itself.
Hopefully for future releases, there will be an ADFS management tool included with the Remote Administration Toolkit

Enabling GUI on Hyper-V 2012 R2 Core

I have seen several articles about enabling Minimal Server Interface (GUI) on 2012 core. Such as ...
http://www.admin-magazine.com/Articles/Windows-Server-2012-Tricks
Trick #6
None of these work for me. Is this because I installed from a 2012 R2 Hyper-v ISO instead of a 2012 R2 Install disk and selected 'Core' install?
Also, is there a licensing difference between 2012 R2 Hyper-v and 2012 R2 Core install with Hyper-v and GUI enabled?
Thanks.

Hi,
As an additional information, you could also refer to the following articles for details.

Install dc on hyper-v 2012

hi there
I wonder
I have new server ( dell r620 with e2620)
with 2 raid volumes
1 mirror system 2 disks (sas)
2 raid 5 data 3 disks ( sas )
the server run 2012 (clear with any applications )
now I want to install new server (vm) run 2008 r2 and to add forest 2003 ( I want to move mail boxes)
my q is to install the os 2008 on raid 1 config vhd fix or dynamic ?
and exchange apps on raid 5
or install all on raid 5
thx

My preference would be this:
1. Don't install any applications directly on the host. From what your saying I don't think you're planning on this, but i wanted to make sure.
2. Place all VMs on the RAID 5s. In my opinion, the system volume (C:) of your host is dedicated to the host system. You'll run into less issues in the future by going this route. You don't run the risk of filling the volume and having the host AND your
VMs stop functioning, and if the volume every fails, you still have your VMs on the RAID 5s. It's just a reinstall of the host system from there.
3. I recommend fixed to dynamic primarily because most people don't monitor their disk space very well. While there are some benefits to going dynamic, you have the be "VERY" careful you don't over-commit storage, otherwise your going to run into
issues.
Going with fixed disks removes this issue by allocated the entire amount up front. It won't let you over-commit if you go with fixed disk.

Configuring network connectivity for VM's on Hyper-V 2012 R2 Server

Hi,
We have installed Hyper-V server 2012 R2 on a server and trying to configure 10 VM's.
on the host machine we have 4 ethernet adpaters available ,for now we have enabled only one.
Questions :
1)Can we use only one adapter and configure all the VM's ?
-- if we use only one adapter for connecting all the VM's will there be any performance or connectivity issues ?
2) Do we need to configure virtual switches ?
Note :Users will access VM's using VPN connectivity .
What is the recommended one .Please suggest
Thanks

Thanks Bill for your replies.
Everything is working fine now. all the VM's are getting the IP addresses.
The "Allow management operating system to share this network adapter" was unchecked. We checked that and restarted the hyper-v server.
By default it is checked ,accidentally it might have been unchecked.
Everything is working fine now.
Thanks again for your inputs.

Hyper-V 2012 R2 Remote Management with Windows 8.1 using Microsoft Account (Workgroup)

Hello,
I've set up a Hyper-V 2012 R2 Server and tried to manage it from a Windows 8.1 with a Microsoft Account. Everything is in the same workgroup. After many searches, the only way is set up the server for remote access, install RSAT and log on with an Administrator
account from the server in Server Manager console.
So, this situation generates a question: since it's impossible to set up a Microsoft Account in Hyper-V server as a local user, it's impossible to use "the same account and password" way to establish a link between server and desktop? I must use
a remote account for connection? Why Windows 8.1 local account and online account can't be merged as a single account?
By the way, there are some consoles that cmdkey doesn't work, so it's not an option.
Best regards.

I have not fully tried this myself but I know this:
A microsoft account can only be added to Server as a User, and only after Desktop Experience has been added. This is also how you enable the MSFT Store on Server.
This also requires a Full install of Server and is not possible on the free Hyper-V Server SKU.
But, the legacy Server Manager console that Hyper-V Manager is built on has no concept of this new user account type. And neither does Kerberos (the default security mechanism).
So, my guess is that the best you can do is treat it the same as any workgroup machines.
If you use Azure AD and sync your domain credentials, you have the password equivalent. But you still require some AD in the middle. This is simply the current state of affairs.

Hyper-V 2012 R2 - Fixed Size VHDX Have VMs Paused Due to Disk Space Shortage

I am running Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 (Server Core). I have an SSD boot drive and a 10 Tb Storage Space HDD (Double Pairty - RAID6) where all VMs are stored.
I have one VM setup with an expanding VHDX file. It is setup with thin provisioning for 2 Tb and about 1.5 Tb is currently used. The VM paused due to physical disk space (SS drive) being low. I turned off this VM and tried to start a different
VM that has two fixed size VHDX files (also on the SS drive). This second VM would not start either. I got the same error message, as occurred on the first VM, about the physical disk space being low. There was about 10-20 Mb of physical
space left of my SS HDD when these errors occurred.
Given the first VM is setup with an expanding VHDX that makes sense to me that at some point there may not be enough physical disk space for the VM to expand and continue to run.
But given my second VM is using a fixed VHDX it doesn't make sense to me that I cannot get this VM to start. Even if the Storage Space disk were completely full I would expect this VM to be able to start?
Thanks for any assistance you can provide.
Theokrat

Hi Theokrat,
"The HDD was setup with approximately 5 Tb storage pool as double parity."
"My first VM has a 4 Tb fixed VHDX. Thus there was only about
1 Tb free space left for the second VM."
"And for the VMs I'm asking about I set up those options to point to my HDD which is the D drive."
So, there are two VMs (the first VM has 4TB disk , the
second VM has 1TB disk )and all of the VMs' files
are stored on the 5TB HDD (the 1TB VHDx is dynamical) .
You turned off the second VM when it was paused due to lacking of disk space (before this the first VM is off ).
When you start the first VM , it still can not start and the error arose again ,right ?
If there is no any other factor led to disk usage increasing , I think the issue might be the startup memory of first VM is larger than or equal to the second VM's .
Please try to check that , if it is true , you can try to set lower memory for the first VM then start it again .

[Forum FAQ]How to upgrade Windows Server 2008 R2 with a GUI to Windows Server 2012 Server Core

We found that some customers willing to upgrade Windows Server 2008 R2 GUI to Windows Server 2012 Server Core recently. This article provides detailed steps to perform the upgrade.
Analysis
Upgrading from Windows Server 2008 R2 with a GUI installation to Windows Server 2012 with Server Core directly
is not supported. If you do that, you will receive the error message below(Figure 1) in Compatibility report:
Figure 1.
In these scenario, you can upgrade to Windows Server 2012 firstly. After the upgrade process is completed, you can switch freely between Server Core and Server with a GUI modes.
Produces
You can follow the steps below to perform an upgrade from Windows Server 2008 R2 with a GUI installation to Windows Server 2012 Server Core mode:
1. Upgrade to Windows Server 2012 with a GUI mode
1) Firstly, please boot into Windows Server 2008 R2 with a Windows Server 2012 installation DVD inserted.
2) Select the operating system you want to install with a GUI mode.
We can see 2 options (Server Core Installation or Server with a GUI) for each operating system version. (Figure 2)
Figure 2.
Note: Please make sure you have enough disk space on system partition. Or you will get such an error in Compatibility report.(Figure 3)
Figure 3.
After the Compatibility check, the installation will continue. It will take several minutes until upgrading is done.(Figure 4)
Figure 4.
2. Switch the GUI mode to Server Core
Method 1: Using Server Manager
1) Open Server Manager, click
Manger and select “Remove Roles and Features” to start the
Remove Roles and Features Wizard.
2) In Features,
uncheck the box next to the “User Interfaces and Infrastructure” option, and then click “Next”. (Figure 5)
Figure 5.
Now tick the “Restart the destination Server automatically if required” box, then click “Remove”. (Figure 6)
Figure 6.
Method 2: Using Windows PowerShell
There are multiple ways to remove the GUI via Windows PowerShell, we introduce the way of using the ServerManager module.
You can also run the commands in Windows PowerShell with an administrator to remove the GUI feature:
“Import-Module ServerManager”
“Uninstall-Windowsfeature Server-Gui-Shell –Restart”
or
“Uninstall-WindowsFeature Server-Gui-Shell, Server-Gui-Mgmt-Infra –Restart”
It will take a period of time to remove the GUI feature and reboot. When the system boots up, you will get into the Windows Server 2012 with Server Core mode. (Figure 7)

VM Protection running on Hyper-V 2012 R2 with DPM 2010

Hi everyone,
We recently setup a new Hyper-V 2012 R2 server hosting virtual machine running with a Win2012 R2 server OS and 2008R2 standard Edition
Our backup solution is still running DPM 2010.
As I understand from the DPM Protection Support Matrix, You can only protect virtual machine running on a hyper-v server under Windows 2012 R2 OS with DPM 2012 R2. Isn't there possible any walkaround to have the vm protection working on dpm2010?
Otherwise, if we choose to protect the VM at guest level instead of host-level, is DPM able to perform the recovery point?
For instance, we've got a VM running a SQL database. We would like specifically to back up that SQL database running on that virtual machine.Is DPM able to perfom that job?
Regards,
Evan

Hi,
To remain in a supported configuration you need to a DPM 2012 R2 server to protect the Windows 2012 R2 hyper-v server. Unfortunately, the path to get there from DPM 2012 is not an easy one.
Upgrade steps.
Note: the Operating system and SQL requirements for DPM 2012

1) On DPM 2010 install the latest update: KB2751231 Description of hotfix rollup package 7 for System Center Data Protection Manager 2010
2) Update the Agents to 3.0.8195.0
3) Backup the DPM 2010 database.
4) Upgrade to DPM 2012 and update agents.
5) Install the latest DPM 2012 update and Update agents.

Teaming NICs in Hyper-V 2012 R2

Hi there,
I am trying to team NIC's in my new Hyper-V 2012 R2 server and I would like to simply confirm the order of doing things....
Should i first Install Hyper-V role and than create a network team or rather do the teaming first and than install Hyper-V role?
Thanks for clarification...

Since the title was about 2012 R2, I just thought I would insert a note here that Microsoft's recommendation for teaming has changed to Dynamic Distribution instead of Hyper-V Port Distribution as was recommended in 2012.
Three good resources on teaming:
