How can I determine what the host server is for a Hyper V guest server operating system?
I have connected using remote desktop to the Hyper V guest operating system, which is Server 2008 R2.
I need to get the server name of the server that hosts this Hyper V guest operating system.
Is there a way that I can look this information up from within the Hyper V guest operating system or by looking in Active Directory Users and Computers?
