Server 2016 for Action Pack

I really like my Microsoft Action Pack subscription.  It allows me to familiarize yourself with the software I deploy my clients.

One of my clients will install a new server in the fall, and I intend to load it again Windows Server 2016 (probably Essentials).  So I went on the site of Microsoft Action Pack to load the software on one of my servers, so that I could familiarize myself with the installation and use, before the purchase of my client.

Unfortunately, there is no download for server 2016... only Server 2012.  I was just wondering if anyone knows if server 2016 will be added to downloads MAPS.  I'm pretty well versed with Server 2012... should I stay with this version for my client?

I would like any ideas or suggestions.

Thank you

Phil

  • Installation problems using the .img download Microsoft Action Pack on DVD for Windows 2012 Server Standard x 64

    I tried to install Windows Server Standard edition 2012 x 64 who got burned on the delivery of download Microsoft Action Pack DVD.  Download of the ISO image is a file .img, site Web de Microsoft Action Pack.  I have downloaded several times and burned each image on a DVD.

    When I try to install Windows Server 2012, after that select install, I get a pop-up message indicating, "a media computer driver needs is missing."  It could be a driver DVD, USB or HDD.  If you have a CD, DVD or USB flash drive with the driver on this subject, please insert it now. »

    However, I don't know which driver it needs.  During my tests I initially wanted to install Windows Server 2012 on our VMware ESXi v5.1 environment, but got this error.  I then tried to install it on a physical server that I am able to install Windows Server 2008 x 64 and Windows 8 Pro on without no additional driver needed.  The system's hard drive is a standard IDE 120 GB drive and the DVD drive is an IDE drive as well.

    I called Microsoft Action Pack support and they wanted me to pay for support to get this resolved, which I do not think that I would have to evaluate the software at this point.  They guarantee me that the download available for Action Pack Subscription holders is the necessary "correct".img file.

    I also downloaded the eval FREE for Windows Server 2012 version, but not what I need for my tests.  This download version is a .iso file real vs file .img but won't install Windows Server 2012 Standard Evaluation (Server Core Installation), (with a GUI server) or data center evaluation edition.  This version will install, but isn't what I need and is very limited in functionality.

    Someone else has had problems like this with the Microsoft Action Pack Windows Server 2012 Standard multimedia software installation process and found a solution to this?

  • Systems build and update utility - rejects MS Action Pack OS disc

    Implemented a T105 out of the box with the tools management systems & Documentation DVD was great until it asked me to insert the disc of the operating system. I chose Windows Server 2008 Standard x 64 earlier in the wizard and inserted a DVD of the BONES of this type since a MS Partners - Action Pack set of disks. However he was rejected repeatedly by the Systems Build and Update Utility as "invalid disc".

    Anyone have ideas why this is the case? How can I advance?

    The DVD of the BONE in question has the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Server 2008 Standard on it - this could be the reason why somehow?

    Thanks in advance for any help / lights!

  • 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!

  • VMware View 4.6 v Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1

    Good evening

    After a lot of research on the web, I am unable to locate a resource that clearly indicates if Windows 2008 R2 SP1 is supported for see 4.6.

    We are currently facing a problem where after installation of Service pack 1, it has been speculated and not confirmed, connection brokers now does not activity to redial. It is currently a failure with an error of 'Reestablish interrupted task', and is all the details that we get.

    Can you please advise or point me in the direction of an article which States:

    1. is 1 supported Service Pack or not supported within view 4.6?

    2 - is a reported and know question?

    3. is there a hosfix if this is a known issue or a workaround?

    4. is there anyone here running Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 installed without problem?

    I can't believe that there is anyone out there with this configuration.

    All items I havd read just say N/A for SP1, because I can find was published the day of the release of SP1 or a few days later, no other updates available.

    I was truggelling with it for weeks, and I can't get a straight answer from anyone. If anyone can help I would be most grateful.

    Thank you
