  @dashrender

  This is actually a great article! It simplifies the procedure of installing a Hyper-V role from a GUI free Windows 2016 Core setup.

  That's nice, but again - WHY. This is not the way you should NORMALLY install Hyper-V because now you have a license tied to the hardware. I get that there are reasons, but I'm asking what they are.

  @aidan_walsh afaik there is no reason to install it as a role. All it does is create unnecessary licensing dependencies.

  The main reason some people do it is for auto activation of guest windows machines. That is no reason to ever do it IMO.

  If every physical server is a Datacenter license then it is pretty transparent also.

  But I still do not feel that Installing in this way makes sense.

  Yep, KMS server to the rescue.

  Correct. If you are big enough to have Datacenter licensing, spin up another VM and setup KMS.

  That's a very good post that covers information people don't often think about after deploying vCenter. Additionally, it's something helpful when studying for the VCP-DCV. Thanks for sharing!

  @Tim_G said in Installing VPN access on Windows Server 2016:

  I don't remember experiencing or hearing about an MS RRAS server that was compromised or hacked do to the fault of the MS Software directly. It's always been because of dirt poor implementation and security oversights... connecting a Windows server directly to the internet, .....

  If you consider exposing the server as a mistake leading to compromise, that's really the point that we were making :)

  @Tim_G said in Accelerate your backups with StarWind Virtual Tape Library and Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager:

  Everything on the StarWind VTL side is great. It was quick and easy to install. I installed it on Hyper-V Server 2016, and it went flawlessly. I was able to remotely connect to and manage the VTL without issue across two sites.

  The more time consuming parts was setting up SCDPM. But it's Microsoft, so you'll have that.

  We'll simplify virtual images delivery (seed & back-seed) with the next update :)
