Installing Managed System Software On

Microsoft Windows Server and Microsoft Hyper-

V Server

The Server Core installation option of the Microsoft Windows Server and Hyper-V Server operating system provides a minimal environment

for running specic server roles that reduce the maintenance and management requirements and the attack surface for those server roles.

A Windows Server or Hyper-V Server installation installs only a subset of the binaries that are required by the supported server roles. For

example, the Explorer shell is not installed as part of a Windows Server or Hyper-V Server installation. Instead, the default user interface for

a Windows Server or Hyper-V Server installation is the command prompt.

NOTE: On Windows client operating systems, to install the systems management software successfully, log in using an account

which belongs to the Administrators group and must run the setup.exe using the option Run as administrator from the right-click

menu.

NOTE: Log in as a built-in Administrator, Domain Administrator, or user who is a part of Domain Admins and Domain Users group,

to install the systems management software on supported Microsoft Windows operating system. For more information about

user privileges, see the corresponding Microsoft Windows operating system Help.

Running Prerequisite Checker In CLI Mode

You must run the prerequisite checker in the CLI mode as Windows Server and Hyper-V Server does not support the GUI mode.
