MSDN media works, IF you have access. Keep in mind that most people do not. Eval media works just fine. Dell will only send you the media if you ordered your system with with it (with an OS and the media - it is possible to order an OS but not the media). There is no Dell download for Server OS software.
We just got a couple of R730xd's with Windows Server 2016 factory installed with OEM license. I need to create new virtual machines now and I do not think that we received any install media. This is what it says in the offer from Dell, which we accepted: Software So it was probably a mistake not to get media. Can I: Just use another media, which I have lying around (like from MSDN)? Download an iso from Dell somewhere? Get Dell to ship a DVD? In any case I will use AVMA product keys, so it is only the media that I am missing. Thanks.
