Creating System Restore Points in Windows Server 2012

Searching for "Create a restore point" on Windows Server 2012, brings up a link that when clicked takes you to System Properties. Once there, there is no System Protection tab or option to create a system restore point. Windows Server Backup
is installed and functioning.
Is this feature available in Windows Server 2012? Was it replaced with Shadow Copies for Shared Folders?
Thanks for any insight you can provide.

HI,
To create a system restore point, run msconfig.exe, that will launch a UI, click the tools tab, select system restore, that should invoke a UI which asks if you want to restore to an earlier version or do you want to create a new restore point. I clicked
"create a new restore point" The problem that I ran into is that when I click that button is I receive the error: can't find "C:\Windows\System32\rstrui.exe". That's the .exe which supports the "Create / restore point' processes. I
posted a question about the missing .exe on the windows > windows 8.1 > Repair and recovery forum and was told to post it here. :>) The subject title of that post is "rstrui.exe Create a system restore point on windows server 8 Standard".
That post documents the steps that I followed trying to create a system restore point. (FYI: I'm not trying to backup any drives. I know what a system restore point is and what backup is. They are two different animals). I want to create a restore
point prior in order to prep for installing an App. So, If a problem occurs; the registry keys and app files can be backed out to some extent. BTW: Create system restore point on windows 8.1does work perfectly well, there's a different UI. I just didn't
know where to post the initial problem.regards,Steve

Cannot create Hyper-V external virtual switch Server 2012 R2

Hi,
I am unable to create an external virtual switch on server 2012 R2. I have two Broadcom NICS bridged on a DC fully functional now. I can install Hyper-V but the option is grayed out to create an external switch. I try binding it to the
network bridge, connecting my two NICS and it makes no difference.
Am I correct in assuming that I cannot use Hyper-V on this server if the two NICS are bridged?

Windows Media Player on Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Edition

I have a server with Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter edition installed. This server is being used as a terminal server and I needed to have Windows Media Player installed in order to use a certain feature of a program running on the terminal server. After
researching online I found that all I should need to do is install the Desktop Experience feature and Windows Media Player was included in that. After installing the Desktop Experience feature and restarting the server, I was not able to find Windows
Media Player anywhere. I tried the same process on another server running Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter with the same results.
I was curious as to if this was a Datacenter thing where it was specifically not included with Datacenter edition. I was not able to find any documentation stating that WMP was not included in Datacenter, and everything that I found stated that the feature
sets for Standard and Datacenter were the same, it was just the licensing for them was different.
Curious to see if it would get installed with Desktop Experience on Standard, I spun up a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard VM and installed Desktop Experience and sure enough WMP was installed as well. I then upgraded the Standard VM to Datacenter with a
Datacenter product key and after a restart WMP was still present.
I have also tried this exact same process with Windows Server 2012 (non R2) Datacenter edition and WMP was installed as expected, so it appears that this is only a problem with R2.
My question is, I this "works as designed" and I was just not able to find the documentation to support it or is this a bug?
Update: After doing some more playing around I noticed that if I did a clean install of Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter and then installed the Desktop Experience feature and WMP does get installed. Then I remembered that on the servers that I was trying to
install WMP on and it wasn't working were upgraded from 2012 to 2012 R2. So I created a brand new VM and installed Server 2012 Datacenter (non R2), then upgraded to Server 2012 R2 Datacenter and installed Desktop Experience and sure enough, WMP did not
install. So now I really think it is a bug and it is related to the 2012 to 2012 R2 upgrade process.

Hi Caleb CSG,
Thanks for your feedback.
I'll feedback a report to Microsoft, and I also recommend you can post this bug in Microsoft connect.

Updating Server 2012 R2 DataCenter Offline With WSUSOFFLINE

Hello!
I Am trying to update a system that is not connected to the Internet and I am not really sure which updates I need.
Server 2012 r2 datacenter roles:
1. DC
2. DHCP
3. DNS
So far... (will have VMware installed)
I will need to update every server on the system via wsus offline (also the client pc's)
is there a bundle of updates for the O.S. (Server 2012 itself) or can you direct me as to where can I download the updates please?
thn'x in advance
Omri

Hi Omri,
essentially you'll have to configure the main WSUS server to sync for whatever products you want to patch (i.e. Server 2012R2, Exchange 2013, etc), and select the update classifications (critical updates, service packs, etc), and then export/import those
to the disconnected WSUS.
It's not really practical to try and figure out exactly which updates are needed on which machines, using the approach above the clients can then determine, based on their own configuration, which updates are applicable.
If you find the answer of assistance please "Vote as Helpful"and/or "Mark as Answer" where applicable. This helps others to find solutions for there issues, and recognises contributions made to the community :)

Log into a virtual machine on server 2012 r2 datacenter from a windows 8.1 client login

Hello,
I have set up a VPN on Windows Server 2012 r2 Datacenter using Hyper-V. Everything seems to be functioning ok using the Hyper V platform. I would like to know if it is possible to connect to a virtual machine on the VPN from a Windows 8.1 client using the
widows login and if it is then how to go about it. If I could have some links to tutorials etc I would be greatful. I have not been able to find anything and I have been looking for days. I would really appreciate some assistance. Thanks in advance.
Ed

Hi Ed,
I am sorry to say that I am not quite sure of your requirement. Is the Windows Server 2012 R2 computer a host server in Hyper-V? Did you mean that you want to RDP into a Hyper-V VM from a Windows 8.1 client? If yes, you need to allow Remote Desktop Connections
in guest OS. The network adapter type must allow communication with host machine and network discovery mode and the services supporting network discovery mode must be turned on.

Hi,
I would like to suggest you first run get-windowsfeature command on the core locally not remotely. And if it works, then try to remote run it.
Invoke-Command -ComputerName CORE1 {get-WindowsFeature }

Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Preview Activation/Upgrade

Hello,
Is there a way to activate an installation of Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Preview? I have tried DISM, and Activating with my product key through Control Panel.
When I run the Get-TargetEditions command it says I am unable to upgrade to anything. I have Datacenter license.
Currently I mounted my 2012r2dc ISO and it said it was eligible to upgrade from it, and I am currently running that...I will udpate if it works!
Thanks,
Rob

If anyone is looking to upgrade their Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Preview to a production server, it's actually very simple.
1.) have a license for datacenter
2.) have the disk, or ISO
3.) run the setup from windows > install > datacenter with GUI > upgrade
about 20 minutes and 4-5 reboots later, you're up in Server 2012 R2 Datacenter. Go to CP > System and Security > System > Activate Windows
Done. Full licensed production version.

Error creating VM on Hyper-V Windows server 2012 R2 (0x80070569).

I recently installed in my domain a member server 2012 r2 with Hyper-V Role, and got the following error when creating a new vm:
Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer.(0x80070569).
The user is momber of Domain Admins group and is logged on the server. I noted that the domain admins group has not the right "log on as a batch Job". Is this right required to create vm ? What are the others requirements to install and admin virtual
machines in Hyper-V?

Hi Claudio,
"As Microsoft recommended 'best practice' for Hyper-V servers is to not install any additional Roles or Features that do not specifically support virtualization. As an example, in a Hyper-V Cluster, the Hyper-V Role and the Failover Clustering feature are
installed to support highly available virtualized workloads. Hyper-V hosts play a critical role in an organizations' virtualization strategy. Microsoft recommends that the Hyper-V servers be managed in a separate OU in Active Directory (if they are domain-joined).
Only group policies that apply specifically to Hyper-V host machines should be applied to this OU. This minimizes the risk of a policy conflict affecting the proper functioning in a Hyper-V host. "

Joining Timestamps and Time Intervals + SQL Server 2012

I'm trying to compile a report for the uptime of some assets grouped into 10 minute intervals, with the time the asset went down reported on in the next 10 minute block and any block it crosses into.
Currently I have two tables the first is a Calendar table with entries for each 10 minute block which creates my time intervals for the month.
CalendarDate
01/01/2015 20:20:00
01/01/2015 20:30:00
01/01/2015 20:40:00
Etc.
The second table is my Events table which gives me the start of the down time and the end of the down time along with some other useful data.
StartTime:-01/01/2015 20:29:25
EndTime:-01/01/2015 21:42:54
Asset:-Asset01
EventCode:-Event01
TimeOnRoundedUp:-01/01/2015 20:30:00
TimeOffRoundedUp:-01/01/2015 21:20:00
And
StartTime:-01/01/2015 22:01:31
EndTime:-01/01/2015 22:02:01
Asset:-Asset01
EventCode:-Event01
TimeOnRoundedUp:-01/01/2015 22:10:00
TimeOffRoundedUp:-01/01/2015 22:10:00
There is only 1 Event active per Asset at any given time but many events for different assets, some events only last 30 seconds and are within the same 10 minute reporting period, other events span one or more periods.
The result set I'd like to see is grouped by CalanderDate, Asset and EventCode showing the total number of seconds in the ten minute window the asset was running.
Using the two examples above I'd like to see the two rows below:-
CalendarDate, Asset, EventCode, RunningTimeSeconds
01/01/2015 20:30:00, Asset01, Event01, 565 (600-35)
01/01/2015 20:40:00, Asset01, Event01, 0 (600-600)
01/01/2015 20:50:00, Asset01, Event01, 426 (600-174)
01/01/2015 21:00:00, (600-0)
01/01/2015 21:10:00, Asset01, Event01, 570 (600-30)
For the Events that Start and Stop in the same interval I can get those, using DATEDIFF, it's the Events that happen to span one of more periods I can't work out.
I can add additional columns to the tables if needed.
Any and all help is greatly welcomed, thank you for reading my post.

Creating user from template in powershell - Server 2012 R2

I've been research online how to create a user from a template in powershell and so far can't get it to work. Here is what I'm using:
$instance = Get-ADUser –identity template_user
New-ADUser –SamAccountName Test_Scripts –Instance $instance –Name “Test Scripts” –Enabled:$false
I'm getting an error saying the operation failed because UPN value is not unique. This is a very strange error to me, because it is saying that about the "-Instance" account. But of course that one isn't unique. That's the template.
If I remove "-Instance $instance" from the code, it works just fine and creates the account, just not from a template, obviously.
Any ideas? Below is the entire pasted error.
New-ADUser : The operation failed because UPN value provided for addition/modification is not unique forest-wide

Hi,
You'll need to supply a unique UPN for the new user by adding in the -UserPrincipalName parameter.
