| | Re: how to manage hyper-v from XP Install SCVMM on a separate system, not your managed Hyper-V server(s). No Hyper-V Manager available for XP (AFAIK).

| | Re: how to manage hyper-v from XP This is something I'd also like to have. A management console to control Hyper-V from Windows XP workstation. |

XP might soon be EOL as far as premium support goes, but it wasn't when Hyper-V RTM was released. What about a situation where there is no SCVMM, and no possibility of a local GUI for management. Like Hyper-V Server 2008? It seems the only option is to just go for Vmware/Xen, as they offer management tools for XP too. I am just talking theoretically, I personally don't have this problem, but I can see why this might be a problem for many. |

| | Re: how to manage hyper-v from XP One solution would be an installable package of hyper-v manager on hyper-v server 2008 or server 2008 core. Does anyone know if there are any plans for a local admin tool? |

So sorry but you need to either access a Serve 2008 (full install system) in admin mode and have the tools installed there or get off your 9 year old OS . -- Mike Brannigan |

So there is no reason why some other tool couldn't tool. PS. XP is "only" 6 years old, not 9. And you have to realize many will skip Vista, that is a fact. I personally have Vista and Hyper-V Server 2008 at home and SCVMM at work, so I don't have this problem. But still I can see why many would like to be able to control it without Vista or full install of 2008, and it is an interesting topic to discuss (that's why I joined this discussion). |
