Our host server runs Windows Server 2012 Datacenter, which allows for unlimited licensing on Hyper-V virtual machines. We don't have any budget currently to upgrade this to Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter.
Most of the Hyper-V virtual servers run Windows Server 2008 Standard, 2008 R2 Standard , 2012 Standard etc.
Can we create a virtual machine and install Windows 2012 R2 Standard server on this host server?
Thanks.
