Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7

Remote Server Administration Tools for Windows 7 is a handy companion for IT administrators to remote managed their servers.

I am going to show you how I use it to remote managed my Hyper-V server host.

Here is the download link: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7d2f6ad7-656b-4313-a005-4e344e43997d&displaylang=en

Installation is simple – Accept the agreement.

You might want to browse the help contents to learn more.

You need to go to “Turn Windows features on or off” to enable the remote administration tools you want. I am going to select Server Manager and Hyper-V Tools.

Here I have Hyper-V tools on my Windows 7 machine and from here I can connect to my Hyper-V servers and manage them remotely.

Have fun!
