Hi Warwick,<br />
It my just be semantics but when it asks to revert back to a Checkpoint, the checkpoint is actually the newer snapshot right??<br />
So it shouldn't be going back, it should be going forward?<br />
Thanks.

I have a Windows 2012 R2 Server running Hyper-v<br />
I have to move one of my virtuals to a new host so I exported it to the new physical host and created a new virtual with it.<br />
When I booted it, it had an old configuration.<br />
<br />
I realized that the server has a checkpoint so I am assuming when I booted it on the new server it booted from the base instead of the checkpoint?<br />
If this is true:<br />
i) How can I boot from the checkpoint?<br />
ii) How can I stop the checkpoints on the original server and make it a non-checkpoint virutal<br />
<br />
Thanks

Windows OS

Windows Server 2012 is the server version of Windows 8 and the successor to Windows Server 2008 R2. Windows Server 2012 is the first version of Windows Server to have no support for Itanium-based computers since Windows NT 4.0. Windows Server 2012, now in its second release (Windows Server 2012 Release 2) includes Foundation, Essentials, Standard and Datacenter, and does not support IA-32 or IA-64 processors.

Hyper-V is a native hypervisor; it can create virtual machines on x86-64 systems and supersedes Windows Virtual PC as the hardware virtualization component of the client editions of Windows NT. A server computer running Hyper-V can be configured to expose individual virtual machines to one or more networks. Hyper-V Server supports remote access via Remote Desktop Connection. Administration and configuration of the host OS and the guest virtual machines is generally done over the network.
