Create Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1 Base Images

 

Last couple of days, Microsoft has official release Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1 RTM to public. It is time to create a base image of these operating system and use by VMM to deploy VM.

I’ve use Convert-WindowsImage.ps

Windows Server 2012 R2

Windows 8.1

Based on my testing, it can create a dynamic or fixed VHD/ VHDX Generation 1 VM without any problem.

You can download the script from here

Note:- At this moment, this script is NOT supported or tested to create Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows 8.1 . Use it at your own risk. However, it work fine on my environment. So give it a try and see if it work on your side.
