History[edit]

Windows Server 2012, codenamed «Windows Server 8»,^[6] is the fifth release of Windows Server family of operating systems developed concurrently with Windows 8.^[7]^[8]

Microsoft introduced Windows Server 2012 and its developer preview in the BUILD 2011 conference on September 9, 2011.^[9] However, unlike Windows 8, the developer preview of Windows Server 2012 was only made available to MSDN subscribers.^[10] It included a graphical user interface (GUI) based on Metro design language and a new Server Manager, a graphical application used for server management.^[11] On February 16, 2012, Microsoft released an update for developer preview build that extended its expiry date from April 8, 2012 to January 15, 2013.^[12]

Before Windows Server 2012 was finalized, two test builds were made public. A public beta version of Windows Server 2012 was released along with the Windows 8 Consumer Preview on February 29, 2012.^[7] On April 17, 2012, Microsoft revealed «Windows Server 2012» as the final name for the operating system.^[6] The release candidate of Windows Server 2012 was released on May 31, 2012, along with the Windows 8 Release Preview.^[8]

The product was released to manufacturing on August 1, 2012 (along with Windows and became generally available on September 4, that year.^[4] However, not all editions of Windows Server 2012 were released at the same time. Windows Server 2012 Essentials was released to manufacturing on October 9, 2012^[13] and was made generally available on November 1, 2012.^[14] As of September 23, 2012, all students subscribed to DreamSpark program can download Windows Server 2012 Standard or Datacenter free of charge.^[15]

Windows Server 2012 is based on Windows 8 and requires 64-bit CPUs.^[16] Coupled with fundamental changes in the structure of the client backups and the shared folders, there is no clear method for migrating from the previous version to Windows Server 2012.

Features[edit]

Installation options[edit]

Unlike its predecessor, Windows Server 2012 users can switch between «Server Core» and «Server with a GUI» installation options without a full re-installation. Server Core – an option with a command-line interface only – is now the recommended configuration. There is also a third installation option that allows some GUI elements such as MMC and Server Manager to run, but without the normal desktop, shell or default programs like File Explorer.^[11]

User interface[edit]

Server Manager has been redesigned with an emphasis on easing management of multiple servers.^[17] The operating system, like Windows 8, uses the Metro-based user interface unless installed in Server Core mode.^[18] The Windows Store is available by installing the desktop experience feature from the server manager, but is not installed by default.^[19] Windows PowerShell in this version has over 2300 commandlets, compared to around 200 in Windows Server 2008 R2.^[20]

Task Manager[edit]

Windows Server 2012 includes a new version of Windows Task Manager together with the old version.^[21] In the new version the tabs are hidden by default, showing applications only. In the new Processes tab, the processes are displayed in varying shades of yellow, with darker shades representing heavier resource use.^[22] Information found in the older versions are now moved to the new Details tab. The Performance tab shows «CPU», «Memory», «Disk», «Wi-Fi» and «Ethernet» graphs. Unlike the Windows 8 version of Task Manager (which looks similar), the «Disk» activity graph is not enabled by default. The CPU tab no longer displays individual graphs for every logical processor on the system by default, although that remains an option. Additionally, it can display data for each non-uniform memory access (NUMA) node. When displaying data for each logical processor for machines with more than 64 logical processors, the CPU tab now displays simple utilization percentages on heat-mapping tiles.^[23] The color used for these heat maps is blue, with darker shades again indicating heavier utilization. Hovering the cursor over any logical processor’s data now shows the NUMA node of that processor and its ID, if applicable. Additionally, a new Startup tab has been added that lists startup applications,^[24] however this tab does not exist in Windows Server 2012.^[25] The new task manager recognizes when a Windows Store app has the «Suspended» status.

IP address management (IPAM)[edit]

Windows Server 2012 has an IP address management role for discovering, monitoring, auditing, and managing the IP address space used on a corporate network. The IPAM is used for the management and monitoring of Domain Name System (DNS) and Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) servers. Both IPv4 and IPv6 are fully supported.^[26]

Active Directory[edit]

Windows Server 2012 has a number of changes to Active Directory from the version shipped with Windows Server 2008 R2. The Active Directory Domain Services installation wizard has been replaced by a new section in Server Manager, and a GUI has been added to the Active Directory Recycle Bin.^[27] Multiple password policies can be set in the same domain.^[28] Active Directory in Windows Server 2012 is now aware of any changes resulting from virtualization, and virtualized domain controllers can be safely cloned. Upgrades of the domain functional level to Windows Server 2012 are simplified; it can be performed entirely in Server Manager. Active Directory Federation Services is no longer required to be downloaded when installed as a role, and claims which can be used by the Active Directory Federation Services have been introduced into the Kerberos token. Windows Powershell commands used by Active Directory Administrative Center can be viewed in a «Powershell History Viewer».^[29]^[30]

Hyper-V[edit]

Windows Server 2012, along with Windows 8, includes a new version of Hyper-V,^[31] as presented at the Microsoft BUILD event.^[32] Many new features have been added to Hyper-V, including network virtualization, multi-tenancy, storage resource pools, cross-premises connectivity, and cloud backup. Additionally, many of the former restrictions on resource consumption have been greatly lifted. Each virtual machine in this version of Hyper-V can access up to 64 virtual processors, up to 1 terabyte of memory, and up to 64 terabytes of virtual disk space per virtual hard disk (using a new .vhdx format).^[33]^[34] Up to 1024 virtual machines can be active per host, and up to 8000 can be active per failover cluster.^[35] SLAT is a required processor feature for Hyper-V on Windows 8, while for Windows Server 2012 it is only required for the supplementary RemoteFX role.^[36]

ReFS[edit]

Main article: ReFS

Resilient File System (ReFS),^[37] codenamed «Protogon»,^[38] is a new file system in Windows Server 2012 initially intended for file servers that improves on NTFS in some respects. Major new features of ReFS include:^[39]^[40]

Improved reliability for on-disk structures: ReFS uses B+ trees^[39] for all on-disk structures including metadata and file data. Metadata and file data are organized into tables similar to a relational database. The file size, number of files in a folder, total volume size and number of folders in a volume are limited by 64-bit numbers; as a result ReFS supports a maximum file size of 16 exabytes, a maximum of 18.4 × 10¹⁸ folders and a maximum volume size of 1 yottabyte (with 64 KB clusters) which allows large scalability with no practical limits on file and folder size (hardware restrictions still apply). Free space is counted by a hierarchical allocator which includes three separate tables for large, medium, and small chunks. File names and file paths are each limited to a 32 KB Unicode text string.
Built-in resilience: ReFS employs an allocation-on-write update strategy for metadata,^[39] which allocates new chunks for every update transaction and uses large IO batches. All ReFS metadata has built-in 64-bit checksums which are stored independently. The file data can have an optional checksum in a separate «integrity stream», in which case the file update strategy also implements allocation-on-write; this is controlled by a new «integrity» attribute applicable to both files and directories. If nevertheless file data or metadata becomes corrupt, the file can be deleted without taking the whole volume offline. As a result of built-in resiliency, administrators do not need to periodically run error-checking tools such as CHKDSK when using ReFS.
Compatibility with existing APIs and technologies: ReFS does not require new system APIs and most file system filters continue to work with ReFS volumes.^[39] ReFS supports many existing Windows and NTFS features such as BitLocker encryption, Access Control Lists, USN Journal, change notifications,^[41] symbolic links, junction points, mount points, reparse points, volume snapshots, file IDs, and oplock. ReFS seamlessly^[39] integrates with Storage Spaces, a storage virtualization layer that allows data mirroring and striping, as well as sharing storage pools between machines.^[42] ReFS resiliency features enhance the mirroring feature provided by Storage Spaces and can detect whether any mirrored copies of files become corrupt using background data scrubbing process, which periodically reads all mirror copies and verifies their checksums then replaces bad copies with good ones.

Some NTFS features are not supported in ReFS, including object IDs, short names, file compression, file level encryption (EFS), user data transactions, hard links, extended attributes, and disk quotas.^[38]^[39] Sparse files are supported.^[43]^[44] Support for named streams is not implemented in Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012, though it was later added in Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2.^[45] ReFS does not itself offer data deduplication.^[39] Dynamic disks with mirrored or striped volumes are replaced with mirrored or striped storage pools provided by Storage Spaces. In Windows Server 2012, automated error-correction with integrity streams is only supported on mirrored spaces; automatic recovery on parity spaces was added in Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2.^[45] Booting from ReFS is not supported either.

IIS 8.0[edit]

Windows Server 2012 includes version 8.0 of Internet Information Services (IIS). The new version contains new features such as SNI, CPU usage caps for particular websites,^[46] centralized management of SSL certificates, WebSocket support and improved support for NUMA, but few other substantial changes were made.^[47]

Remote Desktop Protocol 8.0[edit]

Remote Desktop Protocol has new functions such as Adaptive Graphics (progressive rendering and related techniques), automatic selection of TCP or UDP as transport protocol, multi touch support, DirectX 11 support for vGPU, USB redirection supported independently of vGPU support, etc.^[48] A «connection quality» button is displayed in the RDP client connection bar for RDP 8.0 connections; clicking on it provides further information about connection, including whether UDP is in use or not.^[49]

Scalability[edit]

Windows Server 2012 supports the following maximum hardware specifications.^[34]^[50] Windows Server 2012 improves over its predecessor Windows Server 2008 R2:

Specification	Windows Server 2012	Windows Server 2008 R2
Physical processors^[a]	64	64
Logical processors when Hyper-V is disabled	640	256
Logical processors when Hyper-V is enabled	320^[b]	64
Memory	4 TB	2 TB
Failover cluster nodes (in any single cluster)	64	16

System requirements[edit]

Minimum system requirements for Windows Server 2012^[52]

Processor	1.4 GHz, x64
Memory	512 MB
Free disk space	32 GB (more if there is at least 16 GB of RAM)

Windows Server 2012 runs only on x86-64 processors. Unlike older versions, Windows Server 2012 does not support Itanium.^[5]

Upgrades from Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are supported, although upgrades from prior releases are not.^[52]

Editions[edit]

Windows Server 2012 has four editions: Foundation, Essentials, Standard and Datacenter.^[53]^[54]^[55]^[56]^[50]

Reception[edit]

Reviews of Windows Server 2012 have been generally positive.^[59]^[60]^[61] Simon Bisson of ZDNet described it as «ready for the datacenter, today,»^[59] while Tim Anderson of The Register said that «The move towards greater modularity, stronger automation and improved virtualisation makes perfect sense in a world of public and private clouds» but remarked that «That said, the capability of Windows to deliver obscure and time-consuming errors is unchanged» and concluded that «Nevertheless, this is a strong upgrade overall.»^[60]

InfoWorld noted that Server 2012’s use of Windows 8’s panned «Metro» user interface was countered by Microsoft’s increasing emphasis on the Server Core mode, which had been «fleshed out with new depth and ease-of-use features» and increased use of the «practically mandatory» PowerShell.^[62] However, Michael Otey of Windows IT Pro expressed dislike with the new Metro interface and the lack of ability to use the older desktop interface alone, saying that most users of Windows Server manage their servers using the graphical user interface rather than PowerShell.^[63]

Paul Ferrill wrote that «Windows Server 2012 Essentials provides all the pieces necessary to provide centralized file storage, client backups, and remote access,»^[64] but Tim Anderson contended that «Many businesses that are using SBS2011 and earlier will want to stick with what they have», citing the absence of Exchange, the lack of ability to synchronize with Active Directory Federation Services and the 25-user limit,^[65] while Paul Thurott wrote «you should choose Foundation only if you have at least some in-company IT staff and/or are comfortable outsourcing management to a Microsoft partner or solution provider» and «Essentials is, in my mind, ideal for any modern startup of just a few people.»^[66]

Windows Server 2012 R2[edit]

A second release, Windows Server 2012 R2, which is derived from the Windows 8.1 codebase, was released to manufacturing on August 27, 2013^[67] and became generally available on October 18, 2013, by Microsoft.^[68] A service pack, formally designated Windows Server 2012 R2 Update, was released in April 2014.^[69]^[70]

Support Lifecycle[edit]

Microsoft originally planned to end mainstream support for Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2 on January 9, 2018, with extended support ending on January 10, 2023. In order to provide customers the standard transition lifecycle timeline, Microsoft extended Windows Server 2012 and 2012 R2 support in March 2017 by 9 months. Windows Server 2012 reached the end of mainstream support on October 9, 2018 and Extended Support will end on October 10, 2023.^[71]^[72]^[73]

Microsoft announced in July 2021 that they will distribute Extended Security Updates for Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2 for up to 3 years after the end of Extended Support.^[74] For Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2, these updates will last until October 13, 2026. This will mark the final end of the Windows NT 6.2 product line after 14 years, 2 months and 12 days and will also mark the final end of the Windows NT 6.3 product line after 13 years, 1 month and 16 days.

Notes[edit]

^ Applies to Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2012 Datacenter and Windows Server 2012 Standard only. Other editions support less.
^ Each virtualized partition, including the host itself, can use up to 64 processors.^[51]
^ ^a ^b Each license of Windows Server 2012 Standard or Datacenter allows up to two processor chips. Each license of Windows Server 2012 Standard allows up to two virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Standard on that physical server. If more virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Standard are needed, each additional license of Windows Server 2012 allows up to two more virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Standard, even though the physical server itself may have sufficient licenses for its processor chip count. Because Windows Server 2012 Datacenter has no limit on the number of virtual instances per licensed server, only enough licenses for the physical server are needed for any number of virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Datacenter. If the number of processor chips or virtual instances is an odd number, the number of licenses required is the same as the next even number. For example, a single-processor-chip server would still require 1 license, the same as if the server were two-processor-chip and a five-processor-chip server would require 3 licenses, the same as if the server were six-processor-chip, and if 15 virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Standard are needed on one server, 8 licenses of Windows Server 2012, which can cover up to 16 virtual instances, are needed (assuming, in this example, that the processor chip count does not exceed 16).
^ For the Standard and Datacenter editions, each user or device accessing the software must have a client access license (CAL) assigned (either per-user or per-device), so there may be no more simultaneous users than the number of client-access licenses, except up to 2 simultaneous users purely to administer the server software, or for running virtualization or web workloads. Remote Desktop Services requires an additional CAL separate from the aforementioned CAL.
^ If the number of physical processors in a particular server is under 64, the limit is determined by the quantity of licenses assigned to that server. In that case, the number of physical processors cannot exceed twice the number of licenses assigned to the server.

History[edit]

Windows Server 2012, codenamed «Windows Server 8»,^[6] is the fifth release of Windows Server family of operating systems developed concurrently with Windows 8.^[7]^[8]

Features[edit]

Installation options[edit]

User interface[edit]

Task Manager[edit]

IP address management (IPAM)[edit]

Active Directory[edit]

Hyper-V[edit]

ReFS[edit]

Main article: ReFS

Improved reliability for on-disk structures: ReFS uses B+ trees^[39] for all on-disk structures including metadata and file data. Metadata and file data are organized into tables similar to a relational database. The file size, number of files in a folder, total volume size and number of folders in a volume are limited by 64-bit numbers; as a result ReFS supports a maximum file size of 16 exabytes, a maximum of 18.4 × 10¹⁸ folders and a maximum volume size of 1 yottabyte (with 64 KB clusters) which allows large scalability with no practical limits on file and folder size (hardware restrictions still apply). Free space is counted by a hierarchical allocator which includes three separate tables for large, medium, and small chunks. File names and file paths are each limited to a 32 KB Unicode text string.
Built-in resilience: ReFS employs an allocation-on-write update strategy for metadata,^[39] which allocates new chunks for every update transaction and uses large IO batches. All ReFS metadata has built-in 64-bit checksums which are stored independently. The file data can have an optional checksum in a separate «integrity stream», in which case the file update strategy also implements allocation-on-write; this is controlled by a new «integrity» attribute applicable to both files and directories. If nevertheless file data or metadata becomes corrupt, the file can be deleted without taking the whole volume offline. As a result of built-in resiliency, administrators do not need to periodically run error-checking tools such as CHKDSK when using ReFS.
Compatibility with existing APIs and technologies: ReFS does not require new system APIs and most file system filters continue to work with ReFS volumes.^[39] ReFS supports many existing Windows and NTFS features such as BitLocker encryption, Access Control Lists, USN Journal, change notifications,^[41] symbolic links, junction points, mount points, reparse points, volume snapshots, file IDs, and oplock. ReFS seamlessly^[39] integrates with Storage Spaces, a storage virtualization layer that allows data mirroring and striping, as well as sharing storage pools between machines.^[42] ReFS resiliency features enhance the mirroring feature provided by Storage Spaces and can detect whether any mirrored copies of files become corrupt using background data scrubbing process, which periodically reads all mirror copies and verifies their checksums then replaces bad copies with good ones.

IIS 8.0[edit]

Remote Desktop Protocol 8.0[edit]

Scalability[edit]

Windows Server 2012 supports the following maximum hardware specifications.^[34]^[50] Windows Server 2012 improves over its predecessor Windows Server 2008 R2:

Specification	Windows Server 2012	Windows Server 2008 R2
Physical processors^[a]	64	64
Logical processors when Hyper-V is disabled	640	256
Logical processors when Hyper-V is enabled	320^[b]	64
Memory	4 TB	2 TB
Failover cluster nodes (in any single cluster)	64	16

System requirements[edit]

Minimum system requirements for Windows Server 2012^[52]

Processor	1.4 GHz, x64
Memory	512 MB
Free disk space	32 GB (more if there is at least 16 GB of RAM)

Windows Server 2012 runs only on x86-64 processors. Unlike older versions, Windows Server 2012 does not support Itanium.^[5]

Upgrades from Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are supported, although upgrades from prior releases are not.^[52]

Editions[edit]

Windows Server 2012 has four editions: Foundation, Essentials, Standard and Datacenter.^[53]^[54]^[55]^[56]^[50]

Reception[edit]

Windows Server 2012 R2[edit]

Support Lifecycle[edit]

Notes[edit]

^ Applies to Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2012 Datacenter and Windows Server 2012 Standard only. Other editions support less.
^ Each virtualized partition, including the host itself, can use up to 64 processors.^[51]
^ ^a ^b Each license of Windows Server 2012 Standard or Datacenter allows up to two processor chips. Each license of Windows Server 2012 Standard allows up to two virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Standard on that physical server. If more virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Standard are needed, each additional license of Windows Server 2012 allows up to two more virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Standard, even though the physical server itself may have sufficient licenses for its processor chip count. Because Windows Server 2012 Datacenter has no limit on the number of virtual instances per licensed server, only enough licenses for the physical server are needed for any number of virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Datacenter. If the number of processor chips or virtual instances is an odd number, the number of licenses required is the same as the next even number. For example, a single-processor-chip server would still require 1 license, the same as if the server were two-processor-chip and a five-processor-chip server would require 3 licenses, the same as if the server were six-processor-chip, and if 15 virtual instances of Windows Server 2012 Standard are needed on one server, 8 licenses of Windows Server 2012, which can cover up to 16 virtual instances, are needed (assuming, in this example, that the processor chip count does not exceed 16).
^ For the Standard and Datacenter editions, each user or device accessing the software must have a client access license (CAL) assigned (either per-user or per-device), so there may be no more simultaneous users than the number of client-access licenses, except up to 2 simultaneous users purely to administer the server software, or for running virtualization or web workloads. Remote Desktop Services requires an additional CAL separate from the aforementioned CAL.
^ If the number of physical processors in a particular server is under 64, the limit is determined by the quantity of licenses assigned to that server. In that case, the number of physical processors cannot exceed twice the number of licenses assigned to the server.

В данном материале мы познакомимся с операционной системой Windows Server 2012 R2, подробно разберем процесс установки ознакомительной версии Windows Server 2012 R2 в редакции Datacenter. Рассмотрим особенности данной ОС, также поговорим об ограничениях ознакомительной версии.

На данный момент Windows Server 2012 R2 это последняя версия серверной операционной системы, которую выпустила компания Microsoft. И, конечно же, чтобы IT-специалисты и пользователи могли опробовать данный продукт, протестировать его у себя в организациях, разработчики выпускают ознакомительные версии, которыми в течение некоторого периода (у данной ОС это 180 дней) можно пользоваться абсолютно бесплатно. Естественно, что это сделано, для того чтобы потенциальные клиенты окончательно сделали свой выбор в пользу этой операционной системы и приобрели лицензию на данное программное обеспечение.

Примечание! В случае приобретения лицензии, знайте, что ознакомительную версию Windows Server 2012 R2 активировать нельзя, необходима чистая установка полноценной версии с установкой соответствующего ключа. Поэтому не советую устанавливать эту версию операционной системы в качестве основной для серверов в своей организации, ее можно использовать только в качестве тестирования основных возможностей. Чтобы при отключении сервера, который работает на ознакомительной версии, не возникли проблемы в работе всей организации.

Ознакомительная версия Windows Server 2012 R2 отличается от полноценной версии, лишь тем, что она может нормально существовать только 180 дней, все остальное, т.е. весь функционал который доступен в той или иной редакции, будет действовать на протяжении этого периода. Когда закончится ознакомительный период операционная система всячески будет напоминать Вам о том, что срок действия лицензии истек, а именно:

В правом нижнем углу будет висеть сообщение о том, что период истек, как выглядит данное сообщение, мы увидим чуть ниже;
При входе в систему она будет просить активировать ее или повторить запрос позже;
Операционная система будет завершать свою работу каждый час;
Возникнут ограничения связанные с обновлением ОС;
Появление записей в журнале приложений о том, что ознакомительный период истек.

Также хотелось бы отметить, что для ознакомления поставляются только 64-разрядные версии Windows Server 2012 R2. Также всего в двух редакциях это в Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard и Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter, они уже идут с предустановленным ключом активации.

Для того чтобы начать пользователя ознакомительной версией Windows Server 2012 R2 необходимо соответственно ее скачать, это можно сделать с центра пробного ПО Microsoft, вот ссылка — http://technet.microsoft.com/ru-RU/evalcenter/dn205286

Хочу заметить, что для скачивания необходимо пройти простенькую регистрацию, если конечно Вы еще не зарегистрированы на Microsoft. При скачивании можно выбрать версию файла, например ISO образ, файл VHD для виртуальной машины, или можно также использовать Microsoft Azure. Я выбрал ISO образ и на сегодняшний день у меня загрузился вот такой файл — 9600.17050.WINBLUE_REFRESH.140317-1640_X64FRE_SERVER_EVAL_RU-RU-IR3_SSS_X64FREE_RU-RU_DV9.ISO

Требования для установки Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter

К основным требованиям можно отнести то, что системе необходимо как минимум 512 мегабайт оперативной памяти (лучше конечно больше!) и 32 гигабайта свободного места на жестком диске! Да размер не маленький, но это обязательное условие, так как если устанавливать на раздел, размер которого меньше хотя бы на 1-2 гигабайт, то система полностью не установится или установится, но не загрузится.

Установка Windows Server 2012 R2

Как видно из названия заголовка устанавливать мы будем Windows Server 2012 R2 в редакции Datacenter, ну, в общем, хватит теории, давайте установим эту операционную систему.

Шаг 1

На первом шаге мы выбираем язык, и формат времени, в нашем случае все выбрано по умолчанию мы просто жмем «Далее»

Шаг 2

Жмем «Установить»

Шаг 3

Необходимо выбрать версию установки, мы выбираем «Ознакомительная версия Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter с графическим интерфейсом пользователя» и жмем «Далее»

Шаг 4

Соглашаемся с условиями лицензионного соглашения

Шаг 5

Выбираем тип установки, я выбираю «Выборочная: только установка Windows» другими словами «чистая установка»

Шаг 6

На данном шаге выбираем раздел, на который мы будем устанавливать ОС

Шаг 7

Затем начнется установка ОС, она длится не долго, минут 15-20, что меня, кстати, радует во всех последних версиях операционных систем от Microsoft.

В процессе установки компьютер перезагрузится

После перезагрузки программа установки будет подготавливать систему к запуску, займет еще 2-3 минуты

Шаг 8

Затем компьютер еще раз перезагрузится и появится окно, в котором необходимо будет указать пароль администратора сервера, помните, что сложность пароль обязательна, он должен быть не менее 8 символов, с большими и маленькими буквами, а также символами и числами.

Шаг 9

Далее система будет загружаться и попросит ввести только что созданный пароль, для этого жмем, сочетание клавиш CTRL+ALT+DEL в прочем это видно на самом окне, и вводим пароль администратора

Шаг 10

Все, система проведет первоначальную настройку, и загрузится, при первом запуске Вы увидите вопрос, связанный с сетью, подробности можете прочитать в самом вопросе, я отвечаю «Да» и любуемся новым «Диспетчером серверов»

Потом можете открыть рабочий стол и увидеть что в правом нижнем углу, будет высвечиваться сообщение с указанием того, что наша версия операционной системы Windows Server 2012 R2 является ознакомительной, также будет отображено количество дней до окончания ознакомительного срока, число соответственно с каждым днем будет уменьшаться.

В данной системе, как и в Windows 8 и в Windows Server 2012 есть новое меню «Пуск»

Вот в принципе и все о чем я сегодня хотел рассказать, в следующих материалах будем и дальше осваивать эту операционную систему, в частности установку и настройку ролей сервера Windows Server 2012 R2. Удачи!

Пароль windows server 2012
Небольшое замечание, там об этом не написано. При установке Windows Server 2012 запросит указать и повторить ваш админский пароль. Так вот обязательно пароль должен содержать латинские буквы и маленькие и большие и еще цифры и ко всему нужно чтоб содержались символы типа ( !, $, #, %). В общем четырехуровневый пароль. Это всё для вашей же безопасности. В ISO образах допускается установщик браузера на рабочий стол и некоторые пользовательские изменения по умолчнию для браузера Chrome, каждый может без проблем изменить настройки браузера на свои предпочтительные.

As with any Windows Server, Server 2012 R2 has certain requirements your hardware must meet to run it. It requires a 64-bit processor because Microsoft discontinued the 32-bit software with the release of this server.

Your processor frequency must be at least 1.4 GHz. We recommend you run it on 2.0 GHz or more for best performance.

The minimum requirement for memory is 512 MB RAM. But, we recommend you’ve 2 GB RAM or higher for it to run smooth.

When it comes to available disk space, the least amount you need to run it is 32 GB. However, we recommend that you’ve 40 GB or more of disk space available for the system to run better.

To install the Windows Server 2012 R2, you’ll need to have a DVD-Rom on your computer. You won’t need it if you’re able to connect to a network where you can access what’s included in the Server 2012 R2 DVD-ROM.

Also, to run it you’ll need to meet the display requirements. It requires at least a Super VGA 800 by 600 monitor. The server will run best with an XGA 1024 by 768 monitor.

To run the system you’ll need the usual suspects: the I/O peripherals, keyboard, mouse and a wireless or wired network interface card (NIC).

Other Server 2012 R2 System Requirements

If you’re installing the server on an Itanium-based computer, you’ll have to meet other requirements. It must have more hard disk space and an Intel Itanium 2 processor.

When the system is being run on a computer with more than 16 GB of RAM, it’ll need more disk space as well. The system needs it for dump files, paging, and hibernation.

Also, the server you run it on needs to have plenty of available disk space. Because it’ll be the domain controller in a large domain.

Before installing this system, we suggest you do a complete backup of all your configuration information for your servers. Also, you should run the Windows Memory Diagnostic Tool to make sure your RAM capabilities meet the Server 2012 R2 requirements.

Wrapping It Up

If you’re considering getting a 2012 server, remember to look into the Windows Server 2012 R2 requirements we discussed. Don’t forget about the basics. Your system should have a 64-bit 1.4 GHz processor with 512 MB RAM and 32 GB available disk space.

You can run this server on your system. Yet, remember that it will run better if you’re able to get the hardware for optimum performance.
