If Managed Servers use Hyper-V, only Windows is supported as the operating system of the Admin Server.
SCVMM can manage VMware ESX via VMware vCenter Server. However, with this product, VMware ESX cannot be managed via SCVMM. To manage VMware ESX with this kind of configuration, register VMware vCenter Server with this product.
If a Windows image is specified when an L-Server is created, server-specific information will be reset using Sysprep (which is available from Microsoft) when the image is deployed. User information and operating system settings are also initialized when Sysprep is executed.
For information on Sysprep, refer to the information provided by Microsoft.
If the Manager is stopped and restarted while processing is being executed, the processing will be re-executed after the Manager starts.
Wait until the processing that is being executed completes before performing any new operations on the same resources.
If the operating system for the image uses MAK license authentication for the activation method (as is the case with Windows Server 2008, for example), the total number of times that Sysprep can be executed will be limited to only three times. Sysprep is executed when an L-Server is created by specifying an image, or when a cloning master is taken, which means that these operations (taking cloning masters and creating L-Servers by specifying images) cannot be performed more than three times. For this reason, it is recommended that cloning masters be taken from a dedicated master server, rather than from L-Servers to which cloning masters have been distributed. Note that Sysprep is also executed when a guest operating system is customized using the template function with VMware, or when templates are created using SCVMM, and that these Sysprep executions are counted in the total number of executions.
If an L-Server has been created by specifying a Windows image, use Sysprep to reset the server-specific information when the L-Server is started for the first time after being created. When the L-Server Console is opened from the management window for the server virtualization software product after the L-Server has been started and the server-specific information has been reset, the Administrator will be automatically logged into the L-Server Console, so it is recommended that you log off from the L-Server Console.
Note the following points when taking a cloning master from an L-Server that has been created using a cloning master.
When L-Servers have never been started since they were created, and when server-specific information has not been set up, an L-Server creation may fail if a cloning master taken from such an L-Server is used to create another L-Server. To take a cloning master from such an L-Server, be sure to start the target L-Server at least once so that the server-specific information will be set up for the L-Server.
