System Center Essentials on Windows Server 2012R2 Essentials
is it possible to install SCE 2010 on Server 2012R2 Essentials?
I already have WSUS up and running on this sever and know that SCE will try to install an older version WSUS. don't really need full SCCM so would like to use SCE instead.
The Windows Server 2012 R2 is not in the supported list of SCE 2010 and considering SCE is discontinued. You may have a try. It will still try to install older version WSUS.

Monitor server running System Center Essentials
Hi,
At a customer site they have System Center Essentials, but they wish to use SCOM 2012 R2 for better monitoring purposes. However, they wish to keep SCE for other purposes, such as software deployment.
There are some key features on this server that must be monitored, but it is not possible to install an agent on a server running SCE. I know the workaround with SCSM - removing the console, install the agent and install the console - but it doesn't seem
that I can remove the console only from the SCE server.
Does anyone have any ideas?
ThanksHi,
Microsoft already announced that System Center Essentials won't have any future release.
It's recommend migrating from System Center Essentials 2010 to Configuration Manager + Operations Manager + VMM

Installing MS Exchange on Windows Server 2012R2 Essentials?
Hi Guys,
I am having trouble finding the appropriate answer to my question - is it possible to install MS Exchange 2013 on Windows Server 2012R2 Essentials edition? Needless to say that this server will be a DC as well - I am aware that it is ot recommended to install
Exchange on domain controller but that is not my question here. I just need to know if it can be installed on 2012R2 Essetials edition? Thank you.
DinoNo. I'm not aware of any documentation showing how this can be done.
Too complicated, the sharing of the IIS the needed ARR..... not supported...not recommended. You get the idea.
That ship has sailed.

Rstrui.exe Create a system restore point on windows server 8 standard
Hi,
Before making system changes, I need to create a system restore point on windows server 2008 Standard with SP2 installed., I found where to accomplish that via the UI, but the file isn't found when I search the C:\windows directory on the server.
The executable should be C:\windows\system32\rstrui.exe, unless it was changed for Server 2008. I have system protection turned on for the C: drive.This problem also exists on Windows server R2 enterprise with all updates applied.
I searched the install media (DVD) it wasn't there. I tried the full name (rstrui.exe) as well as truncated versions. I've searched on all of the applicable forums for rstrui.exe and "create system restore point".
Does someone know where I can get rstrui.exe for windows server 8. It's not available on windows server R2 enterprise or essentials either. If there is an alternative method of creating restore points on windows server 8, please point me in the
correct direction. Is it available in any of the variations of windows server 12. I have all of the updates installed when checking for how to create a system restore point or with searching for rstrui.exe. BTW, performing "system backups" or implementing
"previous versions" functionality work just fine.
Thank you in advance,
SteveHi Steve,
I replied the same question you posted earlier:
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/68352496-2fe8-4320-8848-f22d0d1a6f6b/rstruiexe-missing-unable-to-create-restore-point-windows-server-8-std-r2?forum=windowsbackup
To me it seems that the function is removed in both Windows 2008 SP2 and Windows 2008 R2. Here is my original reply:
I did not find this file either on my new-installed Windows 2008 SP2 system. I assume it is retired in Windows Server 2008 and the function is replaced by Windows Server Backup. I cannot confirm why there is still an option in MSCONFIG which point to
rstrui.exe but I can find the file nowhere. Also this option is removed in Windows Server 2008 R2.
Here link a link for using Windows Server Backup to create system state backup as a restore point:

Can't create ODBC connection in Windows Server 2012R2
I just finished installing the instant client & odbc connection on Windows Server 2008R2. I then attempted to perform the same installation on a new Windows Server 2012R2 instance and encountered the following issue.
After extracting the contents of the 64bit instant client & odbc files into c:\oracle\instantclient_12_1, adding this to the path statement, and adding a TNS_ADMIN environmental variable, I successfully ran odbc_install.exe from an admin cmd window. I then opened the 64bit ODBC Data Source Administrator, clicked add, selected the Oracle in instantclient_12_1, and clicked finish. As soon as I did so, I received the following error: "The setup routines for the Oracle in instantclient_12_1 ODBC driver could not be loaded due to system error code 126: The specified module could not be found. (c:\oracle\instantclient_12_1\SQORAS32.dll)"
I uninstalled the odbc client (odbc_uninstall.exe) and attempted again with the 32bit version & 32bit odbc configuration screen. I get the exact same result with 32bit as I do with 64bit.
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: Nevermind. Apparently I needed the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package for the correct DLLsHi,
I am running Netweaver 7 and ERP2005.
J2EE support pack is 9. The sap note that you mentioned is for NW2004 and our system is running on NW2004s.
Now I am trying to reconfigure the sld. In case if you can suggest me another solution, I will be very happy to try that out...
Thanks for your reply

Windows Server 2012R2 disks go offline after reboot
Hi all,
I've a strange issue in my brand new Windows Server 2012R2, let's describe the environment:
Hypervisor = VMware ESX 5.5
Guest OS = Windows 2012 R2 Standard Edition
I've configured the guest OS with several disk for a SQL Server installation, each disk are presented as "pure" virtual disk to Windows that means no RDM (pass through disk).
After a reboot I've discovered that SQL Server has failed to come online, on a brief analisys, all the disks except system drive (C:) and a volume dedicated to swap file (D:) have not come online. They are present in disk management, but they are offline.
I've manually brung online those disk, than reboot and all returned to normality. Subsequent reboot have generated no issues.
In the system log I have no error message except that one of SQL that fails to came online due to the lack of disks...This happened to me too. Except with server 2008 R2 and exchange 2010. My servers replicate offsite using zerto and I was testing failover and noticed the drive D was offline. Brought it online then rebooted and everything was fine.
So I just build a server 2012 R2 Datacenter edition VM on my production servers, gave it a second disk, initialized it, formatted it and assigned it the drive letter D. Rebooted after installing 3 windows updates and it was offline. There is nothing on this
server at all. It's a fresh install.
I'm running ESXi 5.5 build 2302651 with hardware version 8 and VMware tools version 9.4.11 build 2400950.
From my experience when you see this kind of stuff happen in multiple situations it will happen again. My worry is what if one of my hosts decides to die and HA kicks in and the disk is offline when it boots.
Anyone have anything to add to this?
Edit: My DR site where I tested my failover is DAS and my production site is iscsi. So I don't think the storage type matters.
Edit 2: The SCSI controller type is Paravirtual for all my VM's. -
Windows Server 2012R2 ISO trial not booting
I downloaded Windows Server 2012R2 ISO trial file - named 9600.17050.WINBLUE_REFRESH.140317-1640_X64FRE_SERVER_EVAL_EN-US-IR3_SSS_X64FREE_EN-US_DV9.ISO .
After burning by Nero 12 (and even by Windows 8 image burning tool) , I got only one README.TXT file on the DVD disk,
with the text content:
This disc contains a "UDF" file system and requires an operating system
that supports the ISO-13346 "UDF" file system specification.
I tried to begin boot from this disk to install Windows server 2012 R2 , but I got the error message:
Couldn't find BOOTMGR
How can I solve this problem?

Error While installing Visual Studio 2005 in windows server 2012R2
Hi Team
One Help
I am using windows server 2012R2.I want to install visual studio 2005.
i downloaded VS 2005 from :
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=804
while installin i am getting this error :
"the upgrade patch cannot be installed by the windows installer service because the program to be upgraded or missing or upgrade patch may update a different version of the program.Verify that progam to be upgraded on exiting computer that you have
the correct upgrade patch"
PLease help us.
Thanks,
BobHi Gopi,
Are you trying to add the hosts to your OEM 12c, and then choosing "Deploy Agent"?
Please check this error message about the image file..
The image file C:\oracle\core\12.1.0.2.0\jdk\bin\java.exe is valid, but is for a
machine type other than the current machine.
"Validating OMS_HOST & EM_UPLOAD_PORT failed."
If the agents are deployed earlier from another OEM12c server, please undeploy them and then try.
Thanks,
Rajiv. -
Windows Server 2012R2 Failover Cluster error with mounted volumes
Hi all,
I've a problem with mounted volume on a WSFC build on top of Windows Server 2012R2, the situation is:
M: is the volume hosting mounting points
disk-1, disk-2, disk-3 are volume mounted on M:\SomeFolder
Theese volumes are used by a SQL Server Failover Cluster Instance, but my problem is related to WSFC. I've set dependencies so disk-1, disk-2, disk-3 depend upon H:
If I try a failover of the role "SQL Server" I observe that when the disk come online in the other node they fail with this error:
Cluster resource 'disk-1' of type 'Physical Disk' in clustered role 'SQL Server (ISQL2014A)' failed. The error code was '0xaa' ('The requested resource is in use.').
Based on the failure policies for the resource and role, the cluster service may try to bring the resource online on this node or move the group to another node of the cluster and then restart it. Check the resource and group state using Failover Cluster
Manager or the Get-ClusterResource Windows PowerShell cmdlet.
If I manually take offline H: and than bring it online and then manually take online all disk (1 to 3) they come online with no error.
I'm going crazy!I've found the root of the problem: the servers are virtual machine on a VMware ESX 5.5 infrastructure, VMware claims that on 5.5 multipath is supported for raw device mapping disks but disabling multipath (I've set to fixed path) the Windows Server Failover
Cluster stops to get problems.
Now we have opened a support call with VMware. -
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 -
Some Word Files will not open on Windows Server 2012R2
I have identical versions of Word 2010 on two different computers. One is Windows 7, and one is Windows Server 2012R2. The Win 7 is my primary writing machine but sometimes I need to open a Word file on the other machine.
Some of the files open fine on Windows2012 machine, but some give me an error:
"Word experienced an error trying to open the file." It then makes some suggestions for things to try, including Repair as I am opening the file, but none of these suggestions work. I keep getting the same error.
I cannot see what is different between the files that open fine and the files that give this error.
They all open fine on the Windows 7 machine.
I have tried do a full Repair on Microsoft Office and then rebooting.
The normal way of sharing the files is to copy from Windows 7 to a cloud location and then downloading on the Windows 2012 machine. But I have also tried emailing the file to myself from Windows 7 and opening the email on Windows 2102. I get the same problem.
What else can I try?
Thanks

Re activate windows server 2012r2
I have activated windows server 2012r2 and after the Tuesday morning update the server states that I need to activate again.Microsoft support want's $500.00 to fix the problem. There has to be a way to deactivate and then re-activate.
If you have valid key, then it should not be a problem. Have a look at this : http://its.virginia.edu/software/mslicenses/activate.html

I have no experience in dealing with servers, but my senior has asked me to investigate on how to migrate instances on ADAM (windows server 2003 32bit) to AD LDS (Windows server 2012R2 64 bit) as in place upgrade is not an option as we're running a 32bit
Server and want to migrate to a 64bit Server. can someone please give me a Walkthrough on how to do this.
Thanks in advance.Hi,
it'd be of great help if you could give me a step by step process of replication.
There is no step-by-step article/guide of replication process, replication between AD LDS instances of the same configuration set is an automatic process.
All we need to make sure is to create a replica of the existing instance, and there is no network/security obstacle preventing the replication.
Please note that we need to install AD LDS from Server manager on Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2.
More information for you:

How to Migrate windows 2008r2 RDS server to Windows server 2012r2 RDS
Hi, I want to migrate our 2008r2 RD server + Cals to windows server 2012r2 server, the user will still connect to 2008r2 server but the server hosting the license will be migrated to a 2012r2 server. Currently I have 2 servers that users can connect
to that are served by the 2008r2 RDS (the server I'm converting is just hosting the license) the server user connect to point to this license server. How do I proceed to migrate, I'm searching for documentation but I can't find much, I found that I can only
convert to 2012r2 from 2012 or better OS, so I installing a temporary 2012 server to do a double migration seem to be the best course of action but I can't find any documentation on how to Migrate the Remote Desktop Services Role Services from 2008r2 to Windows
Server 2012.
Also I just discovered that this server is also hosting license for windows server 2003 terminal service. Will I be able to host these licences on 2012R2 ?
Any pointer would be appreciated.Hi,
It seems like migration the Remote Desktop Services Role Services from 2008r2 to Windows Server 2012 is not supported.
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn479239.aspx
So i think you may install and configure the RDS server on Windows Server 2012 and then migration to Windows Server 2012r2.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
