    Is there any easy way to view Hyper-V's free disk space? I have a Windows 2012 R2 Server that is hosting the Hyper-V manager and I need to know the amount of free disk space. Is there a way to view it with the manager? Is there a way to view disk space on the server itself without running a script?

    You can use Windows Performance Monitor to remotely connect to and view data.

    Click Start , click in the Start Search box, type perfmon , and press ENTER

    Click on Performance Monitor on the Left

    Delete the current process

    Click Add, and browse to another computer. You will need to be on the same domain as the computer you want to connect to.

    Under LogicalDisk select Free Megabytes. Select . Click Add.

    Click OK.

    Select Report under Graph Type. This will show the free disk space per volume.

    I'm trying to configure a server with virtual machines on Windows Server 2012, after finishing the installation of windows in the VM, I try to configure the IP as static, but a second address is assigned to the VM, which gets two addresses being the configured manually the second.

    The configuration looks like this:

    • Connection-specific DNS Suffix:
    • Description: Microsoft Hyper-V Network Adapter
    • Physical Address: 00-15-5D-FE-0C-01
    • DHCP Enabled: No
    • Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address: 169.254.243.109
    • IPv4 Subnet Mask: 255.255.0.0
    • Autoconfiguration IPv4 Address: 192.168.254.30

    • Link-local IPv6 Address: fe80::3dbd:694d:2c37:f36d%12
    • IPv6 Default Gateway:

    • Physical Address: 00-15-5D-FE-0C-01
