      I've successfully added Windows Server Management to my Windows 10 system and am now able to connect to my Hyper-V 2016 server. However, I am having trouble viewing server info such as hard disk space. I get this error when trying to go to disk management:

      did you run this command as noted above

      Enable-NetFirewallRule -DisplayGroup “Remote Volume Management”

      Yes, I ran that on the server but not my pc. I just ran it on my Windows 10 pc too and now it works.

      THANKS

        Yeah has to be done on both sides. A gotcha for sure, that as you found out is not easily Google-able.

            Do I need to change something in my instructions to make that specifically stand out more?

                Maybe, "Run these commands on both server and management workstation" 😉

                  He does say that. I just think it needs to be highlighted or something because in that block it's easy to miss.

                  "Remote access needs to be enabled on the machine you're remoting from as well as the one you're remoting too"

                      Just wanted to throw in here that the updates window can lose focus, so if it's been a while ... you might need to hit a key in it.

                      @JaredBusch said this has been around forever, but this is the only time I have seen it personally, and it just got me again today!

                        Wow thats more difficult than setting up Linux KVM..
                        To the point that why would you want to do this.

                          If you are an All Windows Shop, why would you want to have another technology tossed in?

                          I'm not saying you're wrong, there are just places that prefer to stick to one vendor/tech tree.

                            Yeah it's pretty simple if you're already using a MS AD domain and have GP set up to pretty much make it all plug-n-play, then you don't have to worry about any of this stuff.

                              It looks a lot harder than it really is.

                                Agreed - this is a pretty shitty setup. ESXi is super damned easy compared to this convoluted BS!

                                  With my little XS adventure earlier this week, it reminded me how truly simple XS/XC/XO is.

                                  Hyper-V really does need such a thing. Such a free thing. 🙂

                                    I'm thinking once SSH is fully built into Windows, it will be much easier.

                                    As of now, I'm able to use PowerShell Core to do Enter-PSSession from Linux TO Windows. Which helps when I'm writing PowerShell scripts in VSCode on Linux, and need to do real tests on a Windows machine... being able to do that is huge time saver.

                                    I don't think it's far off until it's part of all Windows and Hyper-V as well.

                                      Do doubt!

                                      ESXi and XS both have a web interface to manage them that is super simple and GUI enabled and crazy easy to understand (at least the basics - disk, RAM, etc) Hyper-V is anything but. You have to manage it with at least two different panes of glass (Hyper-V manager and Computer Manager) if not more.

                                      Of course Scott will say you can manage it 100% with PS, which is likely true, but in a 1-3 host environment, that's rarely worth learning, other than learning for learning sake.

                                        Eh? Have you seen WAC yet? That's insanely functional for managing Hyper-V infrastructure...

                                          Setting up a hyper v server outside of a domain is just as much fun, completely redicolous really. ESXI and XS are a lot quicker to get up and going with.

                                            Yes, a lot more steps need to take place on Hyper-V (all relating to remotely accessing and managing it)... due to using Kerberos and all that for authentication and access... versus everything else that just simply uses SSH. But looks like MS is moving in that direction.
