First off, this is not related to any Stablebit product in any way so I would understand if Chris closed/deleted this topic. However, fora on WSE are far and few between and I know there are people here who actually know things.
So I am going to upgrade to WSE2016 (from WHS2011) and it will probably be the last Server I'll ever build. I want to have the option the create a VM with a huge amount of RAM at some stage. WSE2016 has a mem limit of 64GB. I am wondering whether any VM running inder WSE2016 with the Hyper-V role installed is subject to the same 64GB limit or whether that VM will be subject to the mem-limit of the OS running under the VM?
The main reason I am asking is that I have installed Hyper-V Server Core on bare metal with the intention of running WSE2016 and another OS in two VMs. However, I fail to connect to that Server using Hyper-V Manager. It is not straightforward to me at all how this should work and various how-to's have not helped. But I would not mind if WSE2016 itself ran on bare-metal instead of virtualized, so that is why I am asking.
