How can I create a Pooled VDI infraestructure using Win server 2012 as VM image?

Hello
I have followed the "usual" way to build a pooled VDI desktop using Win7 or Win8 with success, but it fails when I use an image of Win Server 2012 as VM instead. 
Am I overlooking something?  Should I need to prepare the image in a different way? (Sysprep differently?)
Thanks

Dear Ryan
I think the point is other than committing a breach of licensing.  I have a legitimate need to use a pooled server system, which incidentally is not going to be end user.
The "economy" of the proposed structure can make a more efficient use of the equipment.
This is an excerpt of the MS VDI Q&A:
Do I need to pay for Windows VDA if I use Windows Server as a client operating system in my virtual machine?
OR
I’ve heard that I can avoid paying for Windows VDA by using Windows Server as my VDI desktop OS. Is this true?
Running a Windows Server®
OS as the desktop in the datacenter does not require Windows VDA, but there are many reasons why a server OS should not be used as a desktop, especially in the datacenter:
The user experience with servers as the desktop is very different from using a Windows client.
Many applications for end users were written for a client OS and not a server OS. Each of your applications would need to be retested to ensure compatibility with a server OS. Additionally, most vendors
do not offer support for client applications running on servers.
Clients and servers are on different patch cycles, adding to management complexity.
Most of the VDI ecosystem will support the Windows client in the datacenter, not server OS’s.
However, if you do decide to run a server OS as the desktop, please note that you will need to pay a Remote Desktop Services Client Access License (RDS-CAL) to correctly license that scenario.

    Hi,
    Thank you for your posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Can you specify the error which you are facing during VDI setup for server 2012?
    I might think that you need to check the memory setting for server 2012, as might happens that due to less memory you can’t setup the VDI setup properly. 
    Memory: If the Master VM is configured with static memory, it must have at least 1024 MB as startup RAM. If the Master VM is configured with dynamic memory, the maximum RAM must be at least 1024 MB.
    Please check beneath article for information.

  • How can I create a new entry without using LOV for foreign keys.

    Referring to TUHRA sample application based on HR database schema. JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.4
    How can I create a new employee without using LOV for the foreign key "job_id".
    On the first page I would like to choose the job_title from adf read-only table.
    After clicking on the "create new employee button" a creation form appears in which the job_id field is set with previous selection.

    Hi,
    usually the foreign key is only set if the VO you select is dependent from a master. If e.g. you have DepartmentsVO1 that has an EmployeeVO3 as its nested VO, then creating a new instance of employees automatically add the foreign key. If you add EmployeesVO1, which is not dependent to DepartmensVO1, then the foreign key is not set. So if this is the case in THURA (keep in mind that this is not an Oracle demo but a sample used in a book about ADF) then all you need is to take the independent VO when building the new employee form.

    How can I create a scrolling effect where when the user scrolls down the image will blur out?

    Hi there,
    You can create a scroll motion where the image will fade out on scrolling, you need to use the Opacity tab under Scroll Effects Panel.
    If you particularly need the image to be blur out, then you need to edit that image in any image editing program and make one copy of that image as blurred, then place both images (actual and blurred) on that page and use scroll motion or fade option to replace images.

  • How can I create a video with effects using my ipad?

    How can I create a video with effects (sepia, B&W, Negative, oval or any other shape borders) using my ipad?  I would Like to keep a higher res and also be able to shrink it down to email or send in a MMS. Or should I just upload it to my PC and mess with it there? Some of the apps I have are very easy to use compared to the learning curve needed for video editing software.
    Thanks

    Thats the Problem . . . how many apps do I have to try until I find the one I want? I noticed a few will render the video thus losing its original size. When I went to edit it more in iMovie the video was smaller--not good. And what software do you suggest, Templeton, for the PC? I love the apps because they are easy. I dont have hours to mess around on a software to figure out if its something I want. Im looking for simplicity. Maybe Ill get more into it later. I just want to record simple video of my playing the guitar for self analysis and create a short video for family and friends.
    Apps:
    iMovie
    CinemaFXV
    VideoFix
    Cartoonatic
    Video illusion
    VidEditor
    Software:
    Windows Movie maker (wont accept .mov files)
    After Effects (Too little time, so much to learn)
    Wondershare (Very easy but little choices)
    VideoPad (Again. Few choices)

  • How can I create an icon that when clicked will open and maximize an image file?

    How do I create a icon that when clicked will open and maximize an image file?  I have tried to use the simple image widget with maximize upon tap/click - however I am can only size the image really small and put on the page.  I'd prefer to have a graphic that when clicked it simply opens up the image.  This is for a very simple question/answer book.   The user is suppose to look at a picture and locate something.  I want to put an 'Answer' graphic on the image and then the user can click the 'answer' graphic and it will open up the picture with the answer identified. 
    Is this possible?

    Have yiu tried the PopOver widget?  You can drop an image into it, maximise the image and the widgets window...But, you cannot get it full screen.
    With iBooks Author, you either learn to use what is available within the app, or look online for third party widgets to purchase which suit your project.

    Win 8 is not supported until 10.1.5 as described here: Overview — Acrobat and Adobe Reader Release Notes
    Get the update here: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/10.x/10.1.5/misc/

  • How can I create an effect to cycle through several sets of 12 thumbnail images rather than just one

    Hello
    I've searched everywhere i can think of and had no luck so thought it's about time i asked for help.
    How do I create an effect where a group of 12 thumbnail images (all with clickable links) can scroll across by clicking a button to reveal another set of 12 thumbnails and so on without having to refresh the page, im assuming jquery can help but every single slideshow or scroll effect I've come across is for single images and not a set of images.
    Its a gallery part of my website and the images are in sets of 4 in 3 rows.
    All and any help will be greatly apprieciated!

  • How can i create a new shell window using some functions?

    1.In a shell window, how can i use a command to create another new shell window?
    2.In C code, which function will be called to create a new shell window?
    (not excute shell command -- being implemented by using system() )
    Thanks!

    #1 I don't know what a "shell window" is. There are shells (programs that accept terminal input and run scripts), and there are windows (usually drawn by an Xclient (like xterm), or a toolkit client (dtterm, gnome-terminal).
    The two are very different. You may just want to run xterm or something and assume that it will also launch a shell.
    #2 You'll need to explain that one better. system() is the normal way to launch external commands. If you don't want to use it, you'll need to explain why it's not useful here.
