• Consolidation of support for Windows Server 2008

  In the statement of support for vSphere for Server 2008 clustering, he mentions that the two nodes of 2008 should not belong to a cluster HA/DRS.  We currently have our cluster designed to accommodate all guests (HA/DRS active) in the data center.  Excluding the HA/DRS features for VMs individual cluster node, will support us?

  TIA

  -Rick

  The documentation is that if you have virtual machines in a cluster HA/DRS then you don't are not supported.  You will need to disable these functions on the entire cluster for real assistance.  That said, I have this configuration and have been able to call VMware to support without problem.  This does not mean that you will have the same experience, but my guess is that they would support you if necessary.

  You can also see fault-tolerant VMware (FT), but you must understand the differences between MSCS and FT.  If you're upgrading clustering an application such as Exchange, I wouldn't use FT and would use rather MSCS.  Everything depends on what you're trying to accomplish and what fits best. Also remember that FT does not provide protection at the hardware level, so a lack of application level would be replicated on two virtual machines.

• Extended support of Windows Server 2008 R2

  Hello team,

  The extended support for Windows Server 2008 R2 apply for new licences or for only those who has a license purchased before the end of Mainstream Support Date?

  I was at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/search/default.aspx?sort=PN&alpha=windows%20server%202008%20R2&Filter=FilterNO&wa=wsignin1.0 where he talks about Mainstream and Extended support but I did not understand how works extended support.

  This issue is beyond the scope of this site (for consumers) and to be sure, you get the best (and fastest) reply, we have to ask either on Technet (for IT Pro) or MSDN (for developers)

• Drivers for Windows Server 2008 R2

  PE1950, 2950 and MD3000i MPIO on Windows Server 2008 R2

  We're trying to nail a few dates to migrate our W2K8 R2 platform and plan the project.  We have most of our technical plans in place, and we have the code.  We have no Dell drivers however and there are several suspicious communications from Dell on this topic...

  Case #1: http://en.community.dell.com/blogs/insideit/archive/2009/08/10/ready-for-the-transition-dell-provides-support-for-windows-server-2008-r2.aspx

  Note:

  • Our engineers have missed on countless piano recitals, songs and episodes of American Idol while spending thousands of hours of testing and validation to make sure that dy products Dell running Windows Server 2008 R2 are the business-rea.
  • We have pilot complete support for Windows Server 2008 R2 for Dell hardware so you can deploy, run and manage easily. You can go here to download the drivers.

  If you view the service labels in our support of similar product groups, you will find an R2 option for servers... but the only public services on the PowerVault MD3000i you don't find any reference to R2 at all.

  Case #2: http://www.delltechcenter.com/page/Supportted+Dell+PowerEdge+Systems+for+Microsoft+Windows+Server+2008+R2+Beta

  This is a list of Beta for PE obviously compatible servers, however it would make sense If Microsoft has included natively the right drivers for the Dell hardware in the distribution of Microsoft R2 RTM so, just can't find any supporting documentation and do not know if the network drivers are compatible with MD3000i.

  #3: There are a few hacks to get drivers Windows 2008 MPIO inherited working with the RC R2 & MD3000i on this forum, but no reference to R2 in the MD3000i matrix and nothing on the site... it's why, we have wondering again where are the good drivers for R2 RTM?

  Can you be it someone from Dell and or this forum please send information on these issues?

  #1: driver compatibility of matrix for Windows Server 2008 R2 running on PE1950 and connected to an MD3000i PE2950 is a supported configuration?  (Code R2 RTM was released to Microsoft volume license customers)

  #2: the network drivers for the host machines included in the support of Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM?  If this is true, are the drivers MPIO for MD3000i and iSCSI Dell other platforms included in the support of Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM as well then?

  #3: If all the answers are not questions #1 and #2... could someone PLEASE contact people of pilot certification on Dell to see if they are same in QA at this point, if they plan to update and display an estimated date of implementation?  We have contacted tech support, but received very vague answers on anything with R2 at this stage.  There is a business directory and a path to escelation for support tickets, but the midrange as this makes it much easier to share information for the masses, we just have not yet found.

  Thanks for your information, comments and your support!

  I was finally sent to someone who could give me some information on this within Dell, here's what they said:

  PE 1950/2950 drivers:

  The pilot should be included natively in Windows Server 2008 R2 media, and if so, would these drivers would be supported by Dell in a production scenario.

  MD3000i:

  I know that we will not issue a new MDSM which will fund 2008 R2 until sometimes in October. The MD3000i requires MPIO to the MD3000i and Dell drivers driver installation to work properly. I'll see if there is other information that I can find. I understand your frustration and engineer told me that this has been corrected in the next MDSM and MD3000i firmware version in October.

  So, it looks like October before MD3000i will be supported.

  What to do now. Can you please provide?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hello

  The same driver as expected for any operating system like Windows 7 or 8 must be used, however, the installation should be launched via the command line and not as a standard installation.

  Follow these steps to install the software of the printer on a server:

• Solution for Windows Server 2008

  A requeat is considering implementing the standard in Windows Server 2008 and Hyper-v to install and run a VM on the server.

  What may be another solution based on VMware technology (to keep some existing based .vmx VMs)?

  VMware Player might be a solution, but I read that it is "free for personal use": how it can be run in a business environment?

  VMware Server is free as well, is it supported in Windows Server 2008?

  What an alternative if they consider?

  Concerning

  Marius

  Hello.

  VMware Server is free as well, is it supported in Windows Server 2008?

  Windows 2008 Standard and Enterprise Edition (32-bit or 64-bit) are supported.

  What an alternative if they consider?

  Free ESXi may be another option to look at.

  Good luck!

  I have a machine that requires this update for installation of PowerPivot for Excel 2010, but the Windows updates are usually hunted in the world by our headquarters and I can not run it manually.
