Remotely Manage Workgroup Hyper-V Server 2019 Tutorial

Remotely Manage Workgroup Hyper-V Server 2019 Tutorial.
In my previous video we got Windows Server 2019 Hyper-V core installed on my new PC build. As it turns out, if your Hyper-V server is in a workgroup, not joined to an Active Directory domain, there is additional work needed on both the server and client machine in order to manage Hyper-V remotely using the Hyper-V management console. I also need to preface this with the fact that you need Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise edition to be able to perform the steps in this video.

This worked perfect! Thanks! Also, I appreciate the fact that you didnt cut that part out of what didn't work and the resolution

[@ShotokuTech]

Thank you. That's right. Show your work. That is the story I try to tell. Thanks! Best wishes.

[@nuxkarr]

Thank you very much. Been playing with hypervisors all day and was ready to write Hyper-V 2019 off until I came across your video.

[@ShotokuTech]

Excellent! Thanks.

[@nkmelhart]

You are a gentleman and a scholar, sir. I would have been searching for hours for everything that needed to be done if I didn't come across this video. Worked like a charm. Cheers!

[@ShotokuTech]

Yes. I bang my head on a desk for a week so you don't have to. LOL! Thanks for your comment.

[@kenzy997]

Thank you for the video! I'm starting out in IT and have started building my own home lab. This video was very easy to follow, thank you for walking through the errors!

[@ShotokuTech]

Excellent! Good luck. Best wishes.

[@dan-mihaidumitru44]

Thanks :) I should have searched for you in the morning, not at 4 PM after trying everything :D

[@ShotokuTech]

I actually rewatched this a couple of weeks ago, because I needed to configure this on my new laptop. It is still useful! Glad you found it. Thanks.

[@gaborszucs2050]

Oh, you saved my mind! I don't know, why the MS official site does not communicate this information. I was trying to figure out this by myself for 2 days, but no success! You are genius! Big THANKS!

[@ShotokuTech]

Excellent. I wish I could get it to work for Win11. Still missing something for that. Best wishes.

[@gaborszucs2050]

@@ShotokuTech One more thing. I used Win Srv 2022 Std Core, with Hyper-v role enabled, not 2019 hyperV core. The steps almost the same for both.

[@hnmcclain]

MUCH appreciated. I've been trying to evaluate (basically have a shootout) between some hypervisors for some rather serious applications and I could NOT get this stupid thing to work for me. Not intuitive as others have been. Thanks so much for an easy-to-follow video with exactly what I needed. If you have one on Hyper-V's networking, please point me to it. Thanks, again.

[@ShotokuTech]

Thanks. I do not have anything about the networking side yet.

[@makeitcloudy]

I must admin, that I went through the challenge before you recorded this tutorial the hard way, with your help it's just a breeze, and everyone who is equipped with proper software can benefit out of the hyper-v core within his home lab, which is great product for going hybrid, and staying within microsoft stack, without the need to expose yourself towards xcp-ng, proxmox, etc which may hit you from the tools perspective and you won't get the full performance on your vm's. thank you for your fantastic tutorial !

[@ShotokuTech]

Thanks. Yes, it is nice having a safe, reliable platform where I can test out scenarios for work that belongs to me alone. I have been able to test out many different activities to feel confident when I get my hands dirty in real production. Best wishes!

[@maxw27]

This was exactly what I needed! You walked me step by step, thank you so much for this guide. I was able to successfully setup my 2019 Hyper-V core on an old Dell R410 to start learning VMs in my homelab. Thank you so much again for the tutorial!

[@ShotokuTech]

Excellent. Having that home lab really helps. Good luck.

[@jamesos2744]

It's awesome coming back to this video and seeing all the love you're getting for it, you should get a Microsoft MVP

Finally a video which includes all the steps. Thank you so much.

[@ShotokuTech]

Glad it was helpful! I tried it on Widows 11 and I'm still stuck. Need to visit this again. But it is great on Windows 10!

[@ImmanuelKoch]

Thank you! I have tried for hours and thanks to you it finally worked.

[@ShotokuTech]

Excellent thank you! I had to rewatch this just a few weeks ago because I reinstalled Windows on my laptop. Cheers!

[@hutchabilly107]

It figures that Microsoft would make things difficult. Thank you for lesson it will help me greatly since I am trying to learn how to use this product.

[@ShotokuTech]

Have fun! Of course if both the Hyper-V server and your workstation are in an Active Directory domain this is not needed. But I don't want that dependency in this home lab environment. Good luck.

[@ShotokuTech]

Thanks! Will do. Best wishes.

[@umut373]

Thanks for the video. I followed the steps in the video and managed to add the remote server in the domain environment to hyper-v. However, when I need to connect to the VMs, I cannot connect and get the error "Cannot connect to the virtual machine".

[@ShotokuTech]

That sounds like a new problem that is not in the scope of this video. If Hyper-V server is in an AD domain, the client most likely needs to be in the domain. Best wishes.

[@connor_plays1904]

Ok sorry to bother but one more question. I can’t find a network adapter when I try to configure a network, under where you add a network adapter to your vm, nothing shows up. I’m new to servers so I need a lot of help. Thanks for the help.

[@ShotokuTech]

First you need one or more virtual switches. I always create a virtual switch called "LAN", make it external AND if your Hyper-V server only has one physical NIC, make sure you have ticked the "Allow management operating system to share this network adapter. In a real datacenter, your server would have multiple NICs, one dedicated to managment and the rest dedicated to the virtual switches the VMs are connected to.

[@TorEirikTrandal]

Can you make an update for Windows 11? I'm not sure if it is a bug, but I still get warnings after last step. Works great on windows 10, but following the same steps in windows 11 leads me to a persistent message telling me that I need to check the group policy.

[@ShotokuTech]

I have not yet run Windows 11 here at home in my PCs. I guess I really need to now. Thanks.

[@ThinkleTink]

@@ShotokuTech Same issue, I follow the guide, but can't connect using Win11 via local workgroup

[@ShotokuTech]

[@connor_plays1904]

thanks. but now when I create a vm I cant find the .iso file when I plug a usb into server. is there a way I can load a .iso file from my windows 10 host machine. any help would be greatly appreciated.

[@ShotokuTech]

If you know the IP address of the server along with the administrator password, you should be able to right-click on start, then click on run on your Win10 machine. Type \\ipaddress\driveletter$ in the run box. (Example \\192.168.1.100\d$). Substitute the correct IP Address and drive letter for your case. Click OK. You should get prompted for a user name and password after a bit. For the username include .\ in the front. (Example .\administrator). Enter the password. You may also tick the 'save password' checkbox. Click OK. Now you can simply copy files to your server from your Win10 machine.

[@ShotokuTech]

You can also permanently map a drive letter on your Win10 machine to that \\ipaddress\driveletter$ on the server: support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/map-a-network-drive-in-windows-29ce55d1-34e3-a7e2-4801-131475f9557d

[@gabrielluizbh]

Did you change the dns suffix of the hyper-v server?

[@ShotokuTech]

I just checked and no on the Hyper-V server there is no suffix. It is used on the workstation in the HOSTS file for the FQDN. The Netbios name is also in the HOSTS file. Both FQDN and Netbios names are in the local policies as well.

[@cyberbud]

You should write all the commands so that we can easily copy paste.

I needed an FQDN and a Netbios name for the Hyper-V host in the various configurations. You could append any DNS suffix you want.

​@@ShotokuTechCould you explain to me how to do it
