With Hyper-V 2012 R2 server core installed I cannot use media, like USB or optical drive. So how to install the 5nine manager?

Nevermind, finally got a USB flash drive to read and installed it on the Hyper-V server. Now I can actually check it out.

With Hyper-V 2012 R2 server core installed I cannot use media, like USB or optical drive. So how to install the 5nine manager?

This is how I did it:
1. Create a VHDx file put the files inside that (note you have to mount and unmount)
2 Add the vhdx to the machine with server
3. From MSDOS console, Diskpart > list disk > select disk > online disk > assign letter=e
4. exit

cd e:\<5nine folder>install

note the purpose of step 3 is to create access to the disk

You should be able to use the USB drives in hyper-v core.
Go into powershell and type:
diskpart
list disk

above command will show all the drives available on the host. If it does not show your USB drive, then you have a hardware issue.

Let us know.
