Dear all,

I installed Hyper-V 2008 R2 and virtualized SBS2008 and Win7 on top. I
did all of these thru a physical Vista machine. Now I will have to
remove Vista.

How can I start Win7 VM from within Hyper-V 2008 R2? I believe there
must be some command line commands to do this. Does any one know where
I should go to find all the commands that are used to manage VM from
within Hyper-V server? I just couldn't find it anywhere online.

Thanks for the help!

Hyper-V Server does not have any official interface for administrating VMs.
Part of it being "free" it is bare-bones and is expected to be run in an
environment where it can be administered remotely.

With that said, if you go to the CodePlex website and search on Hyper-V,
there are some great developers there that have created their own tools that
can be run locally. They are 3rd-party and not MS supported, but the
contributors are good at keeping them up to date and they'll get you by
until you can get a good win7 machine set up.
