Exploring Windows Server 2012 R2. I need to know how to enable system restore, though.
I've gone about exploring the Datacenter edition to determine if it's right for what I need it for as a home server. However, I want to have a plan for when something goes wrong that might require a system restore, but that refreshing or resetting Windows
Server entirely would be overdoing it. I discovered two Group Policy settings pertaining to SR and properly configured them to attempt to get System Restore up and running, but unfortunately to no avail. What can I do?
System restore is not available in server builds. You are supposed to install and use windows server backup feature instead.

Windows Server 2012 , File Share, need to create CNAME but not working
I'm doing a file server migration for an old Netapp and I'm moving all the data to a Windows Server 2012 Standard System. I need to be able to have 3+ cnames for the system so I don't impact existing clients. I have read the below
articles and none of them are working.
Currently I'm getting the following error
"The Mapped Network drive could not be created because the following error occurred"
"The target account name is incorrect"
So I have tried the following without any luck, and these fixes below are supposed to work on Window 2008R2, but they don't on Server 2012
1) use DisableStrictNameChecking registry value
2) use netdom to create another hostname that is bound to the server, netdom computername (mysystem) /Add (newsystemname)
3) I used setspn to create an alternative name for the system
4) tried disabling SMB3
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, I'm sure this is possible just down know now.
JasonWhy don't you just go into DNS and create multiple records for the same IP address?
Or, if you like trying more complicated paths, install DFS and use its distributed naming capability. It can have many, many different names.

Hi I have a 4 node Windows server 2012 Hyper-V cluster. When I try to run a cluster validation report, everything else is fine but it fails at validate the Operating System Installation Option step. I did some research but couldn't really find any solution.
Anyone knows how to pass this test? Thanks.
Here's the error I get when run the test:
An error occurred while executing the test.
The operation has failed. An error occurred while getting the operating system installation option for node "server1"Hi JasonLiu2002,
Please post the original error information, the current information is so wide that difficult to determine where may have issue and please offer more information about your
server configuration, you can refer the following article to prepare your cluster environment first.

I am currently running my servers on my gaming PC (Intel i7 3rd gen core processor, 8gb RAM, 1tb hard drive), but I can't game with all the servers up. But what I can do is keep the server I'm playing on up. I often have to shut
them down every weekend because I go over to my grandparents house. So basically I need to know what the cheapest server that I can build, buy, buy NOT rent). It has to be able to run a WAMP Server (HTTP, PHP, MySQL), a Filezilla Server (FTP), a Minecraft
Server (Java), and a Garry's Mod Server (Steam). I already have them set up and ready to go, all I have to do is put them on a USB (which I have, 8gb to be exact). The servers are currently exclusive to the admins that are building the server, and will be
public when the time comes that we are ready. I already know how to manage them, I know how to port forward, etc. If it is possible, I would like the server to be a Windows Server, I’ve had experience with Windows 95, 98, ME, Vista, and of course, Windows
7 and 8. Unfortunately never got the know what it was like to have NT, but not to get off track. If anyone has any information, please reply. Thank you, if anyone is interested in playing on the Minecraft Server, Garry's Mod Server, etc, please PM me, I would
love to hear from the people who might have really made this (Hopefully lag free) server possible!Hi,
Thanks for posting in the forum.
If you want to build up a Windows Server 2012 R2 machine, I suggest you could refer to the system requirements in the following article. Please understand that this is only the estimated system
requirements for the Windows Server 2012 R2, actual requirements will vary based on your system configuration and the applications and features you install. I suggest you could contact your local reseller for details about that. Thanks for your
understanding.

I have been using Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition for my business purpose and there are at-least 30 Users who logged in into the server Via Remotely from different location. I want to upgrade my server with latest one with some extra cores and RAM for
better and smooth operations for all users. So, i have a doubt whether my CAL Licenses will works with Windows Server 2012 or i need to purchase the new one for the same?
Moreover, if i don't upgrade my Windows to any 2012 edition and stay on 2008 Standard Edition how much maximum RAM can be installed at a time? is there any limitations? if Yes, please let me know how do i upgrade my Windows 2008 Standard Edition to any other
business edition to avoid such limitations of RAM?
Waiting for your favorable and quick response.Hi again,
th eupgrade optiuon from Standard 2008 to Enterprise 2008 was only available for customers with open value contract with activ esoftware assurance then they can purchase the step up license from Standard to Enterprise.
the only way to have the Enterprise 2008 Edition is to make th edowngrad efrom 2012 Standard to 2008 Enterprise. it means that if you purchase the 2012 R2 Standard Edition, you may downgarde to Enterprise 2008/2008 R2. th ebest way to make the downgrade
to 2008 R2 Enterprise is to purchase the current Version 2012 R2 Standard in volume licensing than you can download diretly from VLSC the Enterprise Edition.
with your downgrade you can still using the 2008 CALs.
thanks

We have implement Single Sign-On with ADFS. (Service Provider - salesforce.com , identity provider - ADFS). When we authenticate with ADFS it will

ACS 4.1 support with Windows Server 2012 Domain controller
I am upgrading my Domain Controller / Active Directory from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2012.
In my environment, I am using Cisco ACS 4.1 which is integrated with Windows Server 2003 Active Directory.
Will ACS4.1 will work fine with my new domain controller (Windows server 2012) or I need to upgrade my ACS too?
Regards,
JunaidJunaid,
ACS 4.x code doesn't even support Windows 2008 R2. Your best bet is to migrate the ACS from 4.x to ACS 5.4 Patch 2 or stay with windows 2003 or 2008 (Non-R2).
ACS 5.4 patch 2 supports Windows 2012 AD.

Does it mean that there is no way to have Java 64 application with IE11 ?
