Hi All,
Last year i moved from ESXi to HyperV on a NUC.
Just copyed the required VM and i still have a Windows Server 2016.
And yes, i am aware of the Windows Server 2016 Lifecycle
I had a requirement to use TPM on a Server. So let’s check with this PowerShell Command
Get-Tpm
Let’s check the Hyper-V Settings - No TPM Settings available
The VM is still a Generation 1
Hi All,
The last few days i was busy to replace my old HP ML 350e G8 Server from 2013. That Server has been working flawless over the last 10 Years. I only had to replace most of the Harddisks over Time as they where running 24x7.
Configuration:
The Server was running several Versions of VMWare ESXi over the years and worked perfectly for my Home Lab purposes.
Hi All,
I’ve decided to upgrade my VMware ESXi 6.7 to 7.x. Searched for HPE Custom Images and was able to download the ISO File from VMware.
I’ve created a bootable USB Stick with Rufus
Then rebooted the Server and booted from the USB Stick
Enter to run the VMware ESXi 7.0.3 Installation
F10 to Accept the EULA
Selected the Volume where ESXi is installed
Hi All,
Seems to be i’ve missed an important update for VMware Remote Console, that was already released two months ago.
I’ve just used the “Download and install” Button
Installation was successful
After the Upgrade i’ve started the VMware Remote Console and checked the Version

Hi All,
Seems to be i’ve missed an important update for VMware Remote Console, that was already released two months ago.
Currently i’ve installed 12.0.2
After extracting the *.zip File i’ve started the Installation.
That ended up in a Bluescreen and restarting the Client. I had to uninstall and reinstall VMware Remote console to upgrade to the newest version.
