  1 - My Web hosting to businesses.

  2. DNS management

  3 - remote Desktop to connect to the server.

  Please can someone advise what would be the best option for me to buy the server without spending too much money.

• VMware + Microsoft Windows Server licenses

  Hi guys

  I have some doubts about licensing Windows Server using VMware HyperVisor.

  We currently have a couple of licenses of Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard and we are deploying a new server.

  It is a server with two nuclei which will run VMware HyperVisor with 5-6, give or take a machine.

  How does the licensing work? What I do need one license per virtual machine running?

  Thanks in advance

  In my case, I have a server (two CPUS) running VMware ESXi. I want to be like 5-6 machines running at the same time. So, I only need 3 Microsoft Windows Server 2012 model R2. Right?

  That's right!

  Regarding power off machines, licenses apply? For example, I have a few VMware Machines powered off tension, but ready to be marketed (maximum of 6 at the same time). Can I do this?

  License only affects "instances running", so the answer to your last question is Yes!

• Windows Server licenses

  I've read up and there see mixed responses in the nets.  90 days by vMotion has been lifted?  Try to understand which edition of license do I need to buy to be on the graces of gourmand, yet good Microsofts...

  «"RParker wrote: I guess I was mistaken, everything CAN be virtualized"»

  This document relates to W2K8 R2 pages on ms.com.  Note that the 90 day limit has not struck out for Windows.

  This is accomplished by allowing customers to reassign licenses freely between servers in a server farm. The changes apply to software licenses for some applications server and all the external connector (EC) licenses. In these cases, the limitation in the short term (90 days or less) reallocation of license is removed. This change does not apply to software for the Windows Server operating system licenses, CALs Client (CAL), subscription (PCAS), device Subscription Licenses (DSL) user licenses, the module management Licenses (MLs) or subscription licenses (add-on SLs). This change applies only to licenses acquired under a Volume Licensing program. It does not apply to licenses purchased by other sources of retail sales.

  This document sets out the prohibition of movement of short duration (less than 90 days) - http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/C/A/FCAB58A9-CCAD-4E0A-A673-88A5EE74E2CC/Licensing_Microsoft_Server_Products_Virtual_Environments.docx.

  As I read it, if I'm moving Windows then I need a license for each physical host (be it standard, ent or DC).  Products such as SQL / Exchange can be moved at any time as long as the currently running instance is licensed (i.e. the license follows the virtual machine and is not bound to a host).

  Hello

  We try to create an environment which is mainly virtual and use thin clients. The idea is to have a server that runs applications virtually to a maximum of 20 users at the same time. I'm not sure that understand the Web site license options. What would be a good setup for this? Which version of Windows Server do we need to install to allow about 20 users to virtually of connection and use the different applications?

  FYI: We have software like Autocad CAD.

  Any help would be appreciated.

• Windows XP Setup: Netframework 2.0 SP2 on Windows server 2003 and generic process for win 32 services

  I have Windows XP. Since May 15, when I open and close my PC, the same updates seem to be installed: Netframework 2.0 SP2 on Windows server 2003 and Windows XPx86 KB2804577 and successfully installed several times per day, approximately 33 in total so far. Is it OK? How can I stop it?

  In this time (also some time before)

  When I open my PC a pop up displays: generic process for win 32 services... to allow or not allow.

  Then: I have not authorized it.

  I will allow, when he will appear again?

  and that's why the same safety NET Framework 2.0 appears again and again, when I open and close the PC?

  What should I do?

  Kirsten

  Dot Net 2.0 has an update to 'fix' his kb928365

  Also, the 2.0 is old enough, have you tried to update for .net 3.0 or 3.5

  Try this link to update 2.0, youre problems will probably end.

  Also, once installed, go to windows update...

• Operating repair of windows CD installation problem - win 2 k 3 Dell poweredge servers

  I saved a Windows 2003 standard server (C drive and the system state) using windows backup and restored to a freshly installed Windows 2003 standard Server - effectively cloning the server installed.  (that is to say, boot from the installation CD, select install windows, press F8, select detected installed OS and press 'R' to repair)

  When I do this, after he copied the files on the hard drive and it recharges, it hangs shortly after starting windows screen.  It seems that whenever that happens, I have to run Windows 2003 a second time (I choose ultimately "press ENTER to retry the upgrade,") before he's going to fix the system successfully enough that I can then apply SP2 and all subsequent WinUpdates.

  What is different about the second compared to the first repair attempt?

  Is it possible to tell the system to start with so I know I need to do?

  Hey Joe,

  Your question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for Windows Server on TechNet forum. Please ask your question in the TechNet Windows Server général forum.

• Essential SNMP/OpenManage/Ncentral on Windows Server R2 block of 2012

  Hello.

  I have problems on the two servers Dell with Windows 2012 R2 key and SNMP reporting.

  We use SNMP and OpenManage for reporting to Ncentral (monitoring system).

  I tested and I know that the configuration that I use only does not work on Windows 2012 R2 key and Dell servers.

  In the event viewer, I found this:

  The SNMP Service encountered an error when accessing the registry SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SNMP\Parameters\ExtensionAgents key.

  Any suggestions?

  Luca

  Hi Luqa,

  Are you referring to OpenManage Essentials (OME) or OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA)? More like OMSA. This forum is dedicated more to MOE, if you can move this post on the forum of general systems management, you would get more help there.

  

• Windows Server License Activation Req

  Hi people,

  I'm new to this bear so please with me.

  I converted a file of acronis backup (it was a picture of one of my dell OEM windows 2003 servers) to a file of vmware 2.0 server.

  When I run the virtual disk I was invited with the image to activate windows - any ideas why?

  Thanks for the help

  You can set the drive of CD-ROM of the virtual machine to connect to a physical drive or an ISO.  When you start, when you see the VMWare start screen, press ESC (just once!) and you will get the start menu.   If you press F2, you can go into the BIOS of the virtual machine and change the boot order.

  If the virtual machine start too quickly, add the following lines to your VMX file.  (I think they're working to Server2.  "Correct me if I'm wrong.)

  bios.bootDelay = "5000".

  bios.forceSetupOnce = 'TRUE '.

  The first line is paused the boot for 5 seconds, which should be long enough so that you press ESC or F2.  The second line is optional.  It forces the virtual machine to go into the BIOS at the next startup.  In this way, you can change the boot order.

• Microsoft SQL Server license model the cheapest for vCenter?

  I was wondering what would be the less expensive license for an SME model that needs to have exceeded SQL express?

  SQL licenses, it's not what I'm doing and I'm getting quotes from 300-$ 30,000 from providers such as CDW (kind of SQL licenses should not be what someone else does either). What I would do, is get the cheapest combination of Server/CAL or by heart that keeps my legal SMB - and I thought someone here might have some experience in the field.

  Environmental databases:

  • Necessary databases: vCenter, composer, Horizon view events DB.
  • Database server will have 2 cores
  • All services configured to use a service account (one user) DBA & Windows Authentication

  Thanks in advance!

  I believe that, in this case launch Microsoft on the sidewalk and the VCA can reduce the overall cost of deployment.

• Do I really need a server license 5.0 vcenter for my vsphere Enterprise 5.0

  Hi all, im new to the Forum vmware and encryption currently in terms of licensing for our small internal data center facility.

  My physical features are for licensing

  Guests: 2

  Number of CPUS: 4

  by CPU core: 6

  For each host RAM: 32 GB will later expand to 64 GB

  and a device to IBM SAN

  If I purchase 4 licenses of the company and need to use the FT features and HA I really need the server vcenter license for that?

  What will miss if I do not buy the license of vcenter server?

  Buy licenses without any SnS that it's expensive, and we want to keep to a bare licensing.

  I thank in advance

  It will be possible to lower the cost even more far by going to an ENT AK but with vsphere Foundation? instead of the standard... or is it a fixed regime that cannot be changed.

  The Kits are sold as announced. These are especially price of starter kits that can be purchased once per site.

  What other discounts can I ask my distributor to provide other than VPP.

  Can't help you on this. I'm not even sure if you can get the volume for only 4 licenses processor licensing more vCenter Server.

  If above our list price no idea what sort of profit my distribution partner for vmware will do about that?

  How are they able to cite much less than these rates mentioned above!

  I don't think you will get an answer to these questions. Not sure what your company product, but I'm sure that you don't tell your clients how much profit you make on your products.
