          @StorageNinja I can totally agree with you that powershell ain't pretty compared to say Xen Orchestra. But you have to agree that in terms of functionality everything is "there" with Hyper-V.

          Nothing is restricted behind a pay-per-feature license etc. as like with ESXi or even Citrix XenServer.

            Quite a few things require Windows Server Datacenter licensing... not necessarily all Hyper-V functionality like VM Shielding , but also things that pair with it such as S2D, storage replica, etc.

              @StorageNinja and I were discussing the functionality differences between Hyper-V and other hypervisors. His big complaint at the time is the lack of an HTML5 command center for Hyper-V where ESXi, Xen Server (through XOA) and KVM all have this.

                Project Honolulu from Microsoft allows you to manage Hyper-V and other roles too from a web browser.

                  That was going to be my response too.

                    @StorageNinja adding in the case of "The No true Scotsman" argument just adds more weight to the conversation.

                    You are adding features and saying "well it doesn't do this or this or this". When in most cases those features simply aren't required. They are snowflake requirements, that a few (maybe even thousands needed) and were thus developed. But are only accessed behind a license.

                    This isn't the case as we're discussing it. The op needs to choose a hypervisor, is clearly misunderstanding what Hyper-V is and has to offer, and how to manage it.

                    You're derailing the thread by adding that it "doesn't do all of this". Yet none of these requirements were mentioned.

                      So this message just came in:

                      Dustin, we heard you work/volunteer for StarWind. This means you can never mention them again.

                      Um go fuck yourself, if I did do that I would expect to be paid.

                              Wait, you aren't allowed to mention StarWind anymore at 🌶 ? Because you work there? Which - like you said - isn't true?

                                Apparently now I work for StarWind which @KOOLER I want all of that back pay you owe me! (obviously I'm kidding) I wish I worked for StarWind probably a great place to work for. . .

                                Which of course is complete bullshit as I have never worked for or volunteered for StarWind

                                  Not part of Hyper-V, though. That's like saying that Veeam or VSAN aren't licensed with ESXi. They aren't, but that's not what people complain about.

                                        Even with the shortcoming it does have Project Honolulu which is an HTML5 management platform. Which I can only assume would not meet the requirements of a complete hypervisor environment based on what StorageNinja has went on a tyrant about on 🌶

                                          Just bought a Moto E4 for $50 to replace my Lumia 635. So long Windows Phone.

                                          Bout time. No wonder you never got my late night booty-call texts. . . .
