HIT Kit for Microsoft - Windows Server 2016

Hi,

I was wondering if there is an HIT Kit for Windows Server 2016 Core?  I noticed that version 4.9.0 does not include Windows 2016.

Thanks!

Hello, 

 Spring in US, Spring 2017 started March 20th, and ends June 21st.  

 It's expected to be on the website in less than 30 days. 

 Regards, 

Don

Hello,

since Dell aquired EMC the Equallogic Domain is somehow dead. Dell never officially announced any release date for Hit KIT Windows 2016. Every rumor says spring 2016.

On the other hand LINUX HIT KIT was just renewed. Dell ignored complete Windows 2016 for 2 year old systems. If you do anything with Windows 2016 you work on your own risk!

Anyway we upgraded our Hyper-V Cluster to Windows 2016 server HIT KIT 4.9 in February. IO performance ist subjective reduced and AMS service will not start. Is reliable and stable.

Best Regards,

Hello, 

 As I mentioned in an earlier post, it's expected to be released in a matter of weeks. The HIT'/ME and LE products are vastly different pieces of software.   HIT/ME not only has MPIO, but the ASM GUI and features like MS SQL, Exchange and SharePoint integration.  It is a much more complicated piece of software. 

 Regards,

Don

Any updates on this?  There are about 30 days left in "spring".  I'm starting to feel like Dell has abandoned the EqualLogic line in favor of their more expensive EMC equipment.

Hello,

4.9 is latest version showing and the direct link to 5.0 shows me as 'unathorized'.

Any update on this?
