Microsoft today released a new Insider Preview of Windows Server. This time it is Windows Server Build 17713. Officially known as Windows Server 2019, this release is now available for the Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC). The release contains both the Desktop Experience and Server Core in all 18 server languages, as well as a new build of the next Windows Server Semi-Annual Channel release in English. In addition, the preview version of Microsoft Hyper-V Server is included with this build.
The Insider Preview program for Windows Server allows customers to try out all the new features of the upcoming OS and provide feedback on them to Microsoft.
This new build of Windows Server 2019 Insider Preview Build 17713 doesn't include new features. However, it allows you to try Windows Admin Center Preview 1807.
The new release of Windows Admin Center Preview brings a new streamlined experience to connect your gateway to Azure, as well as a top customer request:
The Virtual machine inventory page now supports multi-select so that you can perform actions on multiple VMs at once!
File Sharing
You can now add, edit, and remove shares from the Files tool. Fine-tune access with the ability to add and remove users and groups, as well as control their permission level. This highly anticipated feature is now in preview.
Azure Update
We’ve added another way to easily leverage the power of Azure from your own environment with Azure Update Management integration in the Updates tool. Azure Update Management is a free service in Azure Automation that enables you to easily keep all the servers in your environment up to date, letting you manage and push updates from a single place, rather than on a per-server basis. Learn more about Azure Update Management.
With Windows Admin Center, you can easily set up and use Azure Update Management to keep your managed servers up to date. If you don’t already have an Azure Monitoring workspace in your Azure subscription, Windows Admin Center will automatically configure your server and create the necessary Azure resources in the subscription and location you specify. If you have an existing Azure Monitoring workspace, Windows Admin Center can automatically configure your server to consume updates from Azure Update Management.
To get started, go to the Updates tool in a server connection and select “Keep your server up-to-date with Azure Update Management”, and provide your preferences for the related Azure resources.
And much more changes. Refer to the official Windows Admin Center announcement HERE.
