  • windows server 2012 essentials disk partitions

    I am to evaluate Windows Server 2012 Essentials for customers to small businesses.

    I use the trial version for testing purposes.

    My test server is a motherboard Intel S2600CP4, Intel P4000 chassis, E5-2630 CPU Xeon, Intel RS2BL080 RAID controller with 6 500 GB SAS drive in a RAID 5.

    The RAID volume is 2.7 TB as 1 virtual disk.

    2012 Windows refuses to create a partition greater than 2 TB.  I have converted the GPT volume during installation via 'diskpart '.

    Is the limit of 2 TB because of the evaluation of the operating system version or am I missing a step in this process?

    Advice or insight would be appreciated...

    Thank you

  • How can I get Windows Server 2012 Essentials recognize my HARD drive when you turn an external HARD drive in a drive HARD internal storage?

    I recently had a pool of storage space using 3 external drives USB 3.0 in Windows Server 2012 Essentials.  I decided to take the readers out of the enclosure and connected directly to the internal SATA connectors on my motherboard.  When the server was launched upward, these 3 discs now display as disconnected in storage.

    When I do the command 'get-disc' physical in PowerShell, the drives appear as "drives physical 1,2 & 5" and are 2.72 to each. "."  But it also lists disks Seagate Expansion as well, with a status of "communication lost".  These are the same three disks that are now internal.

    Nothing has been deleted or erased, so all the data is still on each individual unit and assume that if I managed to put back them in the external enclosure, would immediately online.  I thought that everything simply moving them to a new HARD disk controller (internal SATA USB) would not cause the pool to drop the readers, they are always connected to the same server.

    Is there a way to get storage space to see and read the 3 internal drives to bring my pool/area back online without losing any data?

  • PC running XP cannot access shared Windows Server 2012 Essentials

    Hello, I'm having a problem with access to files shared on my Windows Server 2012 Essentials on my Dell Inspiron 1100 running XP Pro SP3 I changed all my computers in the workgroup of names to match NetBios servers and all my other computers have access to stocks with the exception of the Inspiron 1100 trying to access in the sharing I am told that I do not have access, I am not offered a prompt to enter a user name and password I am simply denied access. Does anyone know how to get around this problem or fix the issue fact XP and issue with Server 2012 or vice versa. I can access the server to office assistance remotely, but not shared folders which seems strange to me. I've already posted the same question on the TechNet site too since it's a server issue but I find that you can easily post there and receive no help, so that never but I find that almost every subject I posted here, someone has at least made an effort to help with your problem.

    In fact, I created a user account on the server and the XP client gave them both the same user name and password and now I have full access to server shares. I have often continue to try while you wait for answers and find my own solution.

    Thank you

    Mega-Support,

    Thanks for posting.

    Under Windows, you can connect a printer to a computer via USB and be able to print. However, since there is no software for it on the HP site it's all what you can. Unfortunately, you will only be able to print using the USB method.

  • Windows Server 2012 Essentials license key questions

    We recently had to reinstall a server running Windows Server 2012 Essentials.

    We have reinstalled the wrench out of the key Windows Server 2012 Essentials on Tower Server. This key worked for a few days. Then the server started to complain that the key cannot be used. When I enter the key in the key of Activation Windows field, a label in this text field indicates the key is valid, but when I click on the button Activate, after half a minute to process the application, it gives a 0xC004F01F error.

    We appreciate any help you can give on this.

    But I still have 16 seconds to load the snap against 1 second on my workstation (which has much less computer resources!)

    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi LucD,

    I've found a workaround:

    When I run the import-PSSnapin I noticed (with wireshark) a lot of traffic failed to WAN addresses, so I set myself, in Internet Options a false proxy (127.0.0.1), excluding the proxy DNS of my domain active directory name (so I can connect to the virtual center without going through the wrong proxy)

    Now is the time of execution:

    Windows PowerShell

  • Windows Server 2012R2 Task Manager

    We have a question about the Task Manager in Windows Server 2012R2.

    We have a client running on a Terminal Server, they want to use the Task Manager to kill a task that is not responding.

    By default, only the user can see all taks running, also other users.

    Is there a way to partially block it? Perhaps in a GPO?

  • It is essential that I get as a basis for cloud computing if I buy Windows Server 2012 Essentials?

    In our small business we have Dell pc that we used as an exchange of mail for several years, and now we're looking to put new readers and also to get Windows Server 2012.  However, I said that I'd better get used to cloud computing as the main version "Will FORCE" do that to me...

    Is this correct?  What I want to do is have my 2 people connect and share files-, but not on a cloud?

  • Windows Server 2012R2 KMS Activation Key - do not increase

    Hi all

    I managed to set our key KMS data center on a dedicated server of KMS in our Organization. The KMS server is published in DNS (nslookup-type = _vlmcs._tcp = all OK). I started to install different Windows ("autonomous" and facilities of VDI) 2012R2 servers, however the number of KMS does not increase even if I have activated at least 30 machines. Note that our facility is for key KMS data center of Windows Server edition 2012R2, no office or Win7/8/10 KMS key.

    The current number is set to "10" (all the time).

    I also tried to broaden the pool of the VDI, but the number remains the same.

    I did not CMID duplicate, I don't have a rogue KMS server (and clients are not directed to another KMS server - we have only a KMS server in our Organization).

    I also followed this post, but without success:
