Assistance needed for the installation of windows server 2008 r2

Hello users,.

I am new to this technology of the virtual environment and I need help in installing windows server 2008 r2 on a machine virtual workstation. For it so what are the recommended setting for drivers, no. of processors, amount of RAM, type of CISS or sata... etc to give the best performance on my virtual machine. If possible please provide me details to my knowledge.

Thanks in advance

Are you sure that you have installed a Windows Server 2008 R2?

Because the normal procedure is that after the installation, you will get a prompt to choose an administrator password. Once you are connected.

There is no additional user created during installation. This only happens when you install versions of Windows desktop.

  • Non-compliant ACPI BIOS error during the installation of WIndows Server 2008 R2 (x 64)

    I had a problem on my vShpere / ESX4 server - when I try to install Win Server 2008 R2 x 64, it blue screens of installation with a STOP 0xA5 loading error

    Microsoft Descrides piticular in detail as error:

    This error is defined as "ACPI failed must succeed method.» This error

    occurs if ACPI cannot build a control method to make reference to the ACPI

    namespace. Other arguments for this error reference the ACPI object

    It was being run and the name of the control method. A greatly

    simplified explanation (which may not be entirely accurate) is that

    the system cannot find a way to get the ACPI tables that define the

    Plug-and-Play and the system power management features. (Taken from http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=314830 )

    Has anyone another vu cela, and are there settings I can try the prompt ACPI settings?

    When you make significant changes to your computer for example updated operating system, you must always back up. See the links to resources on the backup by clicking the link for each version of Windows you are using: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1

    then

    then

    • Turn off (preferably uninstall) your Antivirus utility before you perform the upgrade.
    • Reboot several times, and then try again.
    • Disable the general USB peripherals (for example - smart card reader).
    • If you are using a SCSI drive, make sure you have the drivers available for your storage on a thumdrive device and it is connected. During the installation of Windows 10, click on the advanced custom Option and use the command load driver to load the driver for the SCSI drive. If this does not work and the installer still fails, consider switching to an IDE based hard drive.
    • Perform a clean boot, restart, and then try again.
    • If you upgrade to the. ISO file, disconnect from the Internet during the installation, if you are connected in LAN (Ethernet) or wireless, disable both, then try to install.
    • If you are updated through Windows Update, when download reaches 100% disconnect from the LAN (Ethernet) Internet or Wi - Fi, then proceed with the installation.
    • If this does not work, try using the. ISO file to upgrade if possible.
    • If you are connected to a domain, go to a local account.
    • If you have an external equipment, attached to the machine, unplug them (example, game controllers, USB sticks, external hard drive, printers, peripherals not essential).

    Is this cold backup and sufficient archives, for the exact replica of primary education

    You can recover up to cancel if something happened.

    Do I have to take the backup of the primary database as cold before the primary.

    always always take backup before any operation.

  • Windows Update will not install the hotfix on Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 KB3122648

    Hello

    I tried several times to install "MS16-019: Description of the update of security for .NET Framework 3.5.1 in Windows 7 Service Pack 1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1" on a Windows Server 2008 R2, running Service Pack 1

    Windows Update has always ends with 'Failure' / has encountered an unknown error. Code 80073712

    The convenience store has not solved it either.

    The server is not really exposed to 'outside' as such, runs in a local network, regular, small; but sometimes, a web browser may be in use.

    Is there anything that can / should be done here to remedy the failure of the installation? Or free time and even not to worry about this?

    It would be great to have a few strong indications here. Thank you!

    System File Checker shows errors that are likely to cause problems with Windows Update. I would like to reinstall Windows Server 2008. That said, I have no direct experience of Windows Server 2008, so I'm not really able to help you.

    Hello everyone

    We bought a new Poweredge R320 server in order to install 64-bit Windows Server R2. There are 2 drives inside and they are preconfgured as raid1.

    I changed the configuration of SATA in RAID mode and also initialized by PERC-H310 RAID1 without any problem. When the server starts up, I see the following messages.

    PS: I posted the same topic in the forum "Blade" by mistake. Apology.

    "Do you mean that if my BIOS/SATA configuration has been set to RAID 1 I should have drivers chipset/AHCI for a successful installation?"

    No, because you are not using the onboard SATA RAID - your built-in SATA is used ONLY by your optical drive, so it should not be in RAID and AHCI usually requires special drivers, which is not required when you use optical drives.  However, pilots of chipset/AHCI may have helped Windows to see the optical drive in such a way that the installation could proceed (if she needs the RAID controller for real hard disks, you will NOT see this particular message - you will see another message when Windows cannot find not all drives to be installed on).

    "When someone would set RAID 1 for sata configuration?"

    ONLY if you use the S110 RAID controller onboard.  You use the H310, so you don't want to mess with the SATA RAID on board.
