Also as far as i know, its not just passing MS exams, but providing customer references, and paying a fee based on the competency you are achieving to complete the process
I am fully aware of the fee but still not quire sure about the customer references

You mean for office 365 license? and how many internal license are you planning to get through getting the MS competency?
We have 2 ms partner account so that should gives us 50 licenses total.
I like to opt-in for MS partner because I want to play around with other products as well. SharePoint is one of them that I like to know more about.
@Ambarishrh said:
What kind of competency are you looking at? Pretty much all competency has silver and gold options. We base our competency goals based on what we need to achieve. We use some for getting internal licenses on few products, some for getting new projects from clients using that technology, example- SharePoint. What is your purpose of attaining the MS Competency?
Mainly Office 2016 license key and some others as needed.

Those are all the development certs. Are you getting certified as a development partner? We are a Silver Partner and don't have any of these. We do it with the IT certs.
Please enlighten me. I might be in the wrong Silver Partner page.
At my company we are planning on going for MS Partner Silver. The requirement is we need 2 individuals to complete at least one course of the listed MS certs. My question is which one should I take that will benefit the longest? Which means which certs are just introduce and are still reverent in IT industry.

Or, you know, put in the right sized SD cards. That it came with 8GB isn't a factor.

Do you recommend getting SSD for OS partition?
No, the opposite. Every penny invested in the "OS" storage is wasted. You don't care about capacity or speed there. Best practice is to install to SD card or USB stick when possible (Hyper-V only installs) or to the main array itself, never split off.
If you were to split it off, which you never would, it would go on the cheapest, smallest, slowest SATA drives that you can get (WD Red SATA.)
Is there any gain or loss if I install Hyper-V server on the main array?
SD Card is not an option for us since it only has 8GB. So we will be getting low profile USB instead.

If I have 4TB of storage capacity using all available HDD slots.. is there a way to increase the capacity down the road?
If you have filled the box, no there isn't a super easy way to make it bigger. You can always add capacity through bigger drives, external arrays, bigger server - in what way are you thinking?
Right now we are about 1.5TB in. So in 5 years we may hit the 4TB mark. Just want to make sure that I have a good understanding on this.

The server came equiped dual 8GB SD Card. Is it enough for both vSan and Hyper-V core?

Thanks SAM. I'll take minutes over hours any day.
Generally not minutes, spin ups are extremely fast. Often just a couple seconds so generally people don't even notice.
Do you recommend getting SSD for OS partition? I'm thinking xByte Edge 240GB in RAID1. I am also submitting proposal to increase HDD to 6 to reduce bottleneck. .

Also, the video creator mentioned that the live migration is not actual real time as the VM needs to spin up and may takes from seconds to minutes. Is it true?
Yes, there is a hiccup as the workload is brought back online on the second machine.
Thanks SAM. I'll take minutes over hours any day.

There is no such OS.
There is
- Server 2012 R2 + Hyper-V role
-- Server 2012 R2 may be installed "core only"- Hyper-V Server 2012 R2
-- There is no GUI for this.
My apologize for the naming. I meant the second one - Hyper-V Server 2012 R2.
So the question is in the title.. Can I use Starwind with Hyper-v 2012 R2 core? The core edition is command line base and doesn't has any GUI so I don't know how to manage Starwind nor install it. What's your thought on this?
Also, does starwind required 2 NIC or 1 NIC and 1 onboard will do?
