Upgrading in place
On a computer that is running Virtual Server 2005,
you can upgrade to R2 using the following procedure.
|
|
To
upgrade R2 on a computer that is currently
running Virtual Server 2005 |
| |
|
|
|
1. |
Make
sure that all virtual machines are
turned off, including any virtual
machines in a saved state. Saved
states are not compatible between
Virtual Server 2005 and R2. |
|
2. |
Back
up all of your Virtual Server files.
In the unlikely event that your
installation becomes corrupted, you
can restore the files from these
backups. The files to back up
include:
|
• |
Virtual
Server configuration file (options.xml) |
|
• |
Virtual
machine configuration (.vmc)
files |
|
• |
Virtual
network configuration (.vnc)
files |
|
• |
Virtual
hard disk (.vhd) files |
|
• |
Undo
disk (.vud) files |
For more information about the
default locations of these files,
see "Virtual Server folders and
files" in the Virtual Server 2005
Administrator's Guide. For more
information about backing up your
files, see "Backing up and restoring
Virtual Server" in the Virtual
Server 2005 Administrator's Guide.
|
|
3. |
From
the Services snap-in, stop the
Virtual Server and Virtual Machine
Helper services. For instructions,
see "Start and stop the Virtual
Server service" in the Virtual
Server 2005 Administrator's Guide. |
|
4. |
If
you want, on the host operating
system, install Windows Server 2003
SP1 or Windows XP Professional SP2
as appropriate. |
|
5. |
Depending on your installation,
follow the instructions in "Install
R2 on a single computer" or "Install
the Virtual Server service and the
Administration Website for R2 on
separate computers" later in this
document. |
|
6. |
After completing the installation,
reinstall Virtual Machine Additions
in each guest operating system, as
described in the Virtual
Server 2005 Administrator's Guide. |
|
Performing a new installation
You can install R2 on a computer that is not
currently running Virtual Server 2005 using the
following procedure.
|
|
To
install R2 on a computer that is not
currently running Virtual Server 2005 |
| |
|
1. |
Ensure that the computer on which
you want to install R2 meets or
exceeds the requirements listed in
"System Requirements" in the
Virtual Server 2005 Administrator’s
Guide. In addition to these
requirements, it also can be running
one of the operating systems listed
earlier in "Support for additional
host operating systems." |
|
2. |
Install the World Wide Web Service
component of Internet Information
Services (IIS) on the computer on
which you want to install the
Administration Website. |
|
3. |
Review conceptual information about
configuring the Administration
Website to run as either the
authenticated user or the Local
System account. Once you select
either of these options, you can
only change the option by
reinstalling Virtual Server. For
more information, see "Installing
the Administration Website" in the
Virtual Server 2005
Administrator's Guide. |
|
4. |
Depending on the type of
installation you want, follow the
instructions in "Install Virtual
Server 2005 R2 on a single computer"
or "Install the Virtual Server
service and the Administration
Website on separate computers" later
in this document. For background
information about these options, see
"Installing Virtual Server" in the
Virtual Server 2005
Administrator's Guide.
|
|
5. |
If
the purpose of this installation is
to upgrade an existing instance of
Virtual Server 2005 running on a
32-bit host operating system to R2
running on a 64-bit host operating
system, then you probably want to
move your Virtual Server resources
from the old 32-bit computer to the
new 64-bit computer. In this case,
be sure to review the information in
"Migrate your resources to the new
installation" later in this
document. |
