Remote Hyper-V Manager Woes

I assume you don't want the Hyper-V server connected to the domain for some reason.
There is a guide here by Timothy Gruber which appears to do what you want.

It's just a test box, and honestly, I like to get servers built as far as I can before we deliver them. So joining the domain is something I would prefer to do at a later time; once the server has been delivered on site.

This is the guide that got me past all of the misinformation, and had all the important info left out by MS. This is by far the best write-up out there for a domain connected PC to manage a workgroup Hyper-V Server

I'm curious - why are you deploying/testing 2016 instead of Hyper-V 2019?

Good question.

Well - it doesn't solve your issue, but it would be worth starting over with the most recent version.

Yeah, given that you are not in production yet. More stable, faster, more modern.

In Volume License Center? We have it in production, so it is definitely available.

MS has been breaking links lately. VLSC has been up and down.

Ugh. VLSC is such a mess in general.

This link works:
https://software-download.microsoft.com/download/pr/17763.1.180914-1434.rs5_release_SERVERHYPERCORE_OEM_X64FRE_EN-US.ISOThanks - Downloaded and installing now.
I have a spare box at the moment - I'm going to so see if I can shuffle some VMs off a 2016 Hyper-V box onto this new soon to be 2019 box.

It can be done but requires anonymous access to be enabled on the Hyper-V server (HVRemote is the step-by-step).
We don't do that for obvious reasons.
PowerShell is the best way to manage the server.
Enter-PSSession -ComputerName R510-HyperV -Credential R510-HyperV\Administrator -

We don't join standalone Hyper-V hosts to any guest domain. That's just asking for trouble on so many fronts.

Always an option to make a dedicated domain for Hyper-V, too. Not sure if I'd ever want that. But it works.

We've been deploying two for a while now in high exposure settings or high risk settings.
For a standalone Hyper-V server though that's a 12lb sledge for a 3" spike. Just a tad.
If running in a standard user session then right click Hyper-V manager and Run As Admin and use the Hyper-V's local administrator for credentials. That may work though I can't remember if it does since we manage everything via local console (RDP) or PowerShell Remote.

Much like RDS.
