Note: This is a Virtual server with Active Directory and SQL 2012 installed.

When starting Server Manager Roles:" Error appears"  Same when I click on Features " Error Features"
When I click on "Error details" at the bottom of the window I get the " Unexpected error refreshing Server Manager:
Exception HRESULT: 0x800F0900.

I  Downloaded the Update Readiness tool and ran it and I get this error" Update is not applicable to your computer"
I also ran IE11-Windows6.1-KB3170106-x64.msu and get "already installed"
I'm not sure how to proceed

BTW: I run  sfc /scannow - returns no errors

Thanks for any tips that you may have.

I've been transferring some large (1gb+) files over HTTP (TCP) between two Windows servers, and noticed that the download speed never exceeds 10Mb/s. Even though the available bandwidth is 1000Mb/s.
The servers are located in Roubaix, France and New York, USA. The RTT/ping between the servers is 72ms.

What I've noticed is that over the same network, with a Linux guest in Hyper-V, the download speed exceeded 400Mb/s!

When downloading from the Linux machine the performance was similar to the Windows > Windows transfer.
After doing some tests it became clear that the TCP receive window doesn't grow large enough on the Windows machines, when the network latency is "high" (above 50ms).

I've tried fiddling around with the TCP auto tuning levels and even disabling TCP auto tuning, but this didn't cause a increase in download speeds. (disabling auto tuning even reduced the download speed)

My question is: What settings should I change in Windows to increase the download speed, to get similar results to Linux?

I think this can be achieved by making TCP auto tuning in Windows Server 2016 more aggressive on high latency connections.

I have a strange issue with the Windows 2008 task scheduler.  Under circumstances unknown, it appears to be triggering two instances of a scheduled task for no apparent reason.  The 2^nd triggered instance fails with an error code 2147750687, which is a “duplicate task already running” message.  So, there is no apparent user impact, since we have these tasks configured to NOT allow multiple instances.

I can see nothing in task scheduler, or in the specific task that would account for the task being triggered twice.  Here is an example of the task in question:

As you can see, the task completed successfully the day before on 4/12.  Then it triggered twice and creates two instances of the task on the 13<sup>th</sup>. One fails, and one completes.  The next day, only one instance gets kicked off.
 
The server is running Windows 2008 standard SP2.  Very vanilla HP server hardware.  4 gig of RAM, and 2 CPUs.  The task scheduler does this approximately 2-5 times per day on (seemingly) random tasks.  I would estimate that the task scheduler on this system kicks off approximately 2000 tasks per day. I do not think it is load related.  The example task above runs at a very slow time of the day for tasks.
 
Any insight would be appreciated.

Hi, Guys.

Do you know about the Microsoft Release for CVE-2019-0708 | Remote Desktop Services Remote Code Execution Vulnerability this May 14, 2019?

Are the security updates for this considered emergency and out-of-band? Please advise.

Thank you.

I'm trying to use this robocopy script in that I've used many times before for file server migrations or just moving folders from one server to another but can't figure out why it's complaining about "No destination directory specified".

I'm running it from the server (as admin) that has the source hosted on it, and the destination folder is open in windows explorer and I have access to that as well. I've tried putting the source and destination in quotes even though there are no spaces and I've tried ending both path's with "\" but that doesn't work either. Any ideas? Using IP instead of hostname for the destination didn't work as well.

robocopy D:\HRShare\HR\Scanned_Data \\Diskstation\Scanned_Data /E /ZB /MIR /DCOPY:T /COPYALL /R:1 /W:1 /V /TEE /LOG+:C:\Robocopy.log

Below is the output but it looks as if it's including the destination in the source and also it's adding c:\windows for some reason

I have a windows server 2008 R2 system which is unable to install KB4499164 (a Windows Security update). I've tried several times, both thru Windows Update and individually. In the Application log, I'm getting the message below

I've tried renaming softwaredistribution and resetting WIndows Update. I'm currently downloading the Windows Update Readiness Tool (it is taking forever).

Any further suggestions?

Hi All,

We have been rolling out this months security patches across the estate however on about 15 servers it is failing to install at all. It fails constantly without any thing meaningful in the logs. 

I've tried to do an online dism aswell as an offline and the update still fails to install.

Any ideas?

large organization...

we received the note that in a new Data Center (on VMWare) ready for production, the template for servers installation is Server 2019 Data Center edition.

First, I was wondering why... why not Server 2019 Standard for all general servers?

Then I thought that there are not "stupid" people on top and probably have a serious reason.

I decided not to ask them (not because they are so smart :)... ) but to ask here.

Say truth, I made a little home work and compared 2019 DataCenter vs Standard. Very few, may be 3-5 features are different. And after quick look I guess that most of them are really important/needed/applicable in the case of installation on physical hardware (Hyper-V Data Center).

Really not persuaded that it is good/necessary move. I know that it is easy to "convert" DataCenter to Standard from PowerShell (and vise versa).

Would be interesting to here the opinion why general servers on VMs with DataCenter version and not Standard could be right decision.

I just see in WSUS for example first group of new servers and all of them appear - Windows Server 2019 Datacenter. Unusual stuff.

Thanks for the point...

Hi Team,

patches has been failed with below error:

kindly help on 

moved my kms server to a new ip address, assumed all clients were using the FQDN, was mistaken. running

slmgr /dlv

showed that the old ip address was the "registered kms machine name" and the "kms machine ip address."

on a test client, I changed the "KeyManagementServiceName" registry key to the FQDN of the kms server, and rebooted. now smgr /dlv shows the FQDN as the "registered kms machine name", but still shows the old ip address as "kms machine IP address." and i'm still getting security-spp 8198 "license activaction failed" events in the application log.

Hello, now I have a couple servers with error "WindowsUpdate_80070002" (code 80070002)

4. Here I saw issue like mine, so i did try it too

cd C:\temp
expand windows6.1-kb4025341-x64_e2518cc83b86902d20302f114a7ebe4249efbe9c.msu -f:* C:\temp
DISM.exe /Online /Add-Package /PackagePath:C:\temp\windows6.1-kb4025341-x64.cab

5. With same technic I did try to install all HRESULT = 0x80070490 - ERROR_NOT_FOUND KB's from c:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

And everything with no luck.

First I think main problem was in that linesL

we have couple of Windows 2019 Server and we are also planning to deploy RDSH farm of Windows 2019. as we are testing user experience we are facing issue of not able to change themes in Whndows server 2019. when we tried to do that it crash systemsettings.exe also tested on couple of different Windows 2019 server so might be it's bug in the system or something else.

Greetings,

I'm trying to use Task Scheduler to backup a file in a another location when it is saved.

What do I check for Log?

When I click on, Begin the Task; On Event, which do I choose?  Basic or Custom?

Where do I find information about the rest of this setup?

Hi,

Does anyone know where Microsoft publishes Checksum hash's for media?  I have downloaded this file: SW_DVD5_Windows_Svr_Std_and_DataCtr_2012_R2_64Bit_English_Core_MLF_X19-05182.ISO

But before I can use this, I want to verify that the hash matches the manufacturers hash..  I want to verify that nothing has changed in the media during the download process.  This is a security measure that our Information Security department requires before we actually use any downloaded media.

I obtained the media from the Licensing Microsoft website.  https://www.microsoft.com/Licensing/servicecenter/Home.aspx

But I can't see that Microsoft has actually published any hashes for the downloads here... 

Any help would be appreciated... 

Thanks...

My server is a windows server 2008 R2, it is my application server that runs MS SQL 2008 on it.

I noticed that at night by exactly 12:33:00am the server restart on its own and when this happen it disrupt operations.

I did not set any task schedule in my windows.

I went to event viewer to know what was the cause of the problem, this was what I got:

The process C:\Windows\system32\shutdown.exe (DATABASE)has initiated the restart of computer DATABASE on behalf of user NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM for the following reason: No title for this reason could be found

Shutdown type: restart

While i am running following command in powershell in windows server 2016 : FROM microsoft/windowsservercore RUN dism /online /enable-feature /all /featurename:iis-webserver /NoRestart. I am getting “The ‘from’ Keyword is not supported in this version of language” error. I have attached the screen in the last.

Please help me in getting this issue solved.

Actually i was following forums and even i have seen use of FROM keyword in microsoft websites as well in documentation of docker.

I already pulled docker window server image by docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:ltsc2016 .

But then using FROM microsoft/windowsservercore RUN dism /online /enable-feature /all /featurename:iis-webserver /NoRestart ,i am getting above error.
