-
First of all, I recommend you to watch a free teaching YouTube serials which is shown below:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjh7nyM0nQE&index=6&list=PL3wE5r2MTAlQ8s_EAIv4X7D5zZWcs1zRL

To purchase Server 2016, you need to also purchase CAL (Client Access Licence).
User CAL:
Device CAL:
Remote Desktop Session CAL:

There are 3 edition: Before purchasing server, check capability of your machine and edition of your server (support or limit).
  • Essentials: Basic One.
  • Standard
  • DataCenter
Interface:
  • Desktop Experience: provides a full graphical interface
  • Server Core: can be administered from the command prompt and Windows Powershell. Less graphic more memory. Less update, less software, less footprint,
  • Nano server: administrated from remote, can't login  onto locally.
    *Please note that you can't changed the interfaces later on Server 2016. (On Server 2012; you can switch it.) You can't go from server core to desktop experience OR from Desktop Experience to server core.
Also there are Hyper-V server 2016 (can be downloaded from microsoft with no charge) and storage server 2016 (everything comes in server. can be purchased from microsoft or approved company it has two types; workgroup (basic one) and standard.)

INSTALLING Server 2016 (Desktop Experience):

It is simple as installing Windows 7. Boot from usb or dvd.

If you have previous server such as server 2012 R2,  you should choose 1st option. Read the picture.

Do following items:

  • Put a strong administrator password. 
  • Check the date and time.
  • Rename the computer
  • put a static IP
  • Install all windows updates.
  • Enable the remote desktop connection.

NOTE 1: Installing all roles in the same server is old fashion. The best way install virtual server on the same physical server and install roles on this server.


Installing Server Roles/Feature via Server Manager: The server must be Desktop Experience. (had a graphical user interface (GUI)).
If you have virtual machine and want to install it on it; you should choose

Installing Server Roles/Feature via Powershell: Right click on the powershell and click on the "Run As Administrator".
First see all roles and feature.  type get-windowsfeature It will give you all features Name , powershell code name, and install status. PLEASE NOTE THAT uppercase or lower case is not problem. Space is important. There should not be a space.

TO SEE ALL POWERSHELL CODES:
 Get-Command It shows all powershell codes.

Get-Command -Name *Auth* It shows all commands which contain "auth" .
It is not lowercase/uppercase sensitive.

Server 2016 (Server Core): 

After installing server core interface. The server will ask you to change administrator password. 
Then, you should make basic setup such as renaming computer, changing IP address. To do that you need to run sconfig command. (Server Configuration =>sconfig)

Type the number. and follow the instructions. If you have something like " (R)estart " means type R make will choose this option.

General Printer Errors

Q: When I send a print to the copier it takes several minutes to print ! A:   The reason can be the size of the file and the resolution. (What are the size of the file and how many pages?) or driver issue (needs to update latest version) or printer firmware issue (needs to update latest version) or speed negotiation issue (set speed/duplex manually on both ends (switch and copier)). Q: The address label doesn't fit on the paper! A:   Make sure that it fits the page. You will see it when you goes the print > more settings (The scale may not 100%. ) Q: The wifi drops down! A:   I recommend you to do the followings: Check the printer firmware. (Refer the manufacturer website.) Check your machine wifi capability and you network band. (2.4GHz or 5 GHz) Check your network minimum bitrate (Mbps) Be careful! increasing or decreasing it may affect your network, if you have close AP in the building. Try usb cable no longer than 2 meters. (Some devices do...

Don't repeat any code! If you do that, there is something wrong. Don't dry (don't repeat yourself) It is a Case-Sensitive language. Keep your variable lower case letters. No space, If you need, use _ .  Ex: my_language print ('Hello World') print(f"{kind} kilos ")     # kind is a variable which defined before. name= input (' What is your name? ') str: All input are str (default). You need to convert them int or float to make calculation float int ' ' '  You can write whatever you want here ' ' ' word= "Python and Mr.G" print (word[0:4])  ==> Pyth      0 is P.  4 is o. But the last one is excluded. Examples: print (word[2])     ==> t print (word[-1])     ==> G print (word[2:5])     ==> tho print(word[1:-1])  ==> ython and Mr. Function = Methods message.upper()                   # to convert to uppercase message...
