Trig0r 211 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 Now I have the TPLink Deco kit sorting out the wifi/internet, I can drop the server without getting shouted at.. So, do I go with VMWare 6.7 or Server 1803 as a replacement for my Server 2016 install? Link to post Share on other sites
mattb75 16 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 VMWare 6.7 for sureYou can load the Server 2016 as the first VM and then play about with other VM’s to your hearts content!!! Link to post Share on other sites
ShadowPeo 81 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Depends on how your licensed, I am licensed for two installs, so therefore if I use ESXi, I get 2 "working" Windows installs. As against just the one if I utilise one as a HyperVisor, then I lose the install so to speak, this is made even worse with the discontinuation of Nano server, or more correctly the changing of the software to a container-centric system, thus meaning I would have no choice but to use my standard licence. Given these facts, I would be going with ESXi (in fact I will be going with ESXi when I do my next install) Link to post Share on other sites
Trig0r 211 Posted July 8, 2018 Author Share Posted July 8, 2018 Tried 6.7, don't think it liked my MV8 card though, VM's would lock up as soon as I attached the card... So, trying Server 2019 instead. Just messing with putting Drivepool on the 2019 host, and sharing it just to the 2016 "Essentials" Server so its all controlled from there..
