Compatibility Windows Server 2016

Anonymous — Tue, 06 Oct 2020 21:44:42 GMT

I Would like to migrate the Windows Server to Windows Server 2016 on which the autodesk components are installed.

I would like to know if autodesk softwares support Windows Server 2016 and virtual server on windows server hyper-V 2016.

Thanks you

Hi @Anonymous,

A couple of things:

Virtualization depends on you having the correct license type to remain within the EULA: https://customersuccess.autodesk.com/articles/setting-the-record-straight-can-i-virtualize-my-autodesk-software

It also depends on what products you plan to run on the server since many products aren't compatible/certified with Windows server - what are you planning to run and which versions?
