Managing Hyper-V Server from Windows 7

 

Now you can manage your Virtual Machines hosted on Windows Server 2008 Hyper V from Windows 7 client OS,

Windows 7 comes with an inbuilt Hyper V management Snap In which you need to enable from Turn features on/off.

1. Go to Control Panel.

2. Click on Programs and Features and click on Turn Windows Features on/off

After you turn this feature ON, you can find the Hyper-V Management Console in Administrative Tools via Control Panel.

Let me know how it goes..
