Hi there,
I was just wondering if there was an update for when Server 2012 R2 qualification is? Particularly for the ability to configure HyperV SRIOV --> enabling the "Cisco Vmfex Switch Extension".
Thanks

Hi,
We have Windows Server 2012 R2 (x64) configured as Hyper-V Servers running a Cisco UCS. We use Cisco UCS B200 M3 Blade Servers with a VIC 1240 (including a Port Expander). It works just fine. I have also succesfully tested VM-FEX and SR-IOV.
I must add that there are only 2012 drivers, although they work properly. In case you have a FlexPod and use iSCSI. NetApp does not have a DSM driver (MPIO) to support 2012 R2 yet, so you have to use the Microsoft DSM driver.
I am also waiting for Cisco and NetApp to release updated drivers that officially support Windows Server 2012 R2.
I hope this information is usefull to you. Please let me know if you have any questions.
