- Hey! thank you very much!
- I have installed the Windows 2008 without Hyper-V edition. The hyper-v manager tools are not available on this version. How can i install the hyper-v manager mmc? The update for Windows 2008 fails.
Thanks

You cannot install the Hyper-V Management tools through the Server Manager and you cannot install an update to make the Hyper-V Manager available in a supported manner.
- Update 950500 does not add the ability to install the Hyper-V Manager
- Update 952627 does not apply to Windows Server 2008
If you want to manage Hyper-V from Windows Server 2008 install Windows Server 2008 with Hyper-V. Alternatively install a Windows Vista SP1 Management Workstation or use Powershell and/or WMI to manage Hyper-V remotely.
- Hmmm... I would have thought that even 'Windows Server 2008 Editions without Hyper-V' would have had the ability add the Hyper-V MGMT MMC. Mental note now made to remember this, thanks Sander.
Cheers, Stephen Edgar - This is really bizarre behavior IMHO. I installed x86 Server 2008 ( being x86 it has no concept of without Hyper-V ) and yet I was able to install the MMC with a little help from a thread showing me how.
Now I can understand there being a x64 w/o Hyper-V because you don't want to include the beta bits that RTM'd with Server 2008 but I can't understand why it would be impossible to manage a hyper-v server.
Does anyone have an explanation or expected resolution of this?
