Hello Windows Server Insiders! Today we are pleased to release a new build of the next Windows Server Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC) Preview that contains both the Desktop Experience and Server Core installation options for Datacenter and Standard editions and Azure Edition (for VM evaluation only). Branding remains Windows Server 2025 in this preview - when reporting issues please refer to Windows Server vNext preview. Build 29531 established a new Server preview baseline build. Please perform a clean install of Build 29531 (or later) using the installation media linked below. Please note: Upgrades from earlier Windows Server vNext preview builds older than 29531 are not supported. We encourage all Windows Server vNext preview users to perform a clean install using 29531 or later to successfully upgrade to future Windows Server vNext preview builds. While upgrades from earlier Windows Server previews (Build 26525 and older) are not technically blocked by setup.exe, a number of known issues have been identified related to upgrades necessitating the establishment of a new baseline build for our Server vNext Preview Program. The new baseline build (29531) will not be Flighted due to upgrade issues. Flighting support resumed with preview build 29550 or later. What's New NVMe-over-Fabrics (NVMe-oF) extends the NVMe protocol—originally designed for local PCIe-attached SSDs—across a network fabric. Instead of using legacy SCSI-based protocols such as iSCSI or Fibre Channel, NVMe-oF allows a host to communicate directly with remote NVMe controllers using the same NVMe command set used for local devices. In this Insider build, Windows Server supports: NVMe-oF over TCP (NVMe/TCP), allowing NVMe-oF to run over standard Ethernet networks without specialized hardware. NVMe-oF over RDMA (NVMe/RDMA), enabling low-latency, high-throughput NVMe access over RDMA-capable networks (for example, RoCE or iWARP) using supported RDMA NICs. For more information, please visit: Introducing the Windows NVMe-oF Initiator Preview in Windows Server Insiders Builds | Microsoft Community Hub ReFS Boot is enabled for Windows Server vNext preview builds. Known Limitations ReFS Boot systems create a minimum 2GB WinRE partition. When WinRE cannot be updated due to space constraints, the system may disable WinRE. Disabling WinRE does not remove the partition. If the WinRE partition is deleted and the boot volume is extended over it, this operation is unrecoverable without a clean install. For more information, please visit: Resilient File System (ReFS) overview | Microsoft Learn Feedback Hub app is available for Server Desktop users! The app should automatically update with the latest version, but if it does not, simply Check for updates in the app’s settings tab. Known Issues [NEW] Thin Provisioning fails on clean installs in this build (29558). Users selecting Thin Provisioning when attempting clean installs of this build may experience failures. This issue is understood and will be fixed in a future release. Upgrading from earlier builds of Windows Server vNext previews (26525 or older) are not supported. Please perform a clean install of build 29531 or later. Users may experience failures when attempting to upgrade from earlier previews (build 26525 and older). VMs may fail to upgrade or start after upgrade from older preview builds impacting live migration and failover cluster scenarios.

Unified Catalog Self-Serve Analytics - Data products and other elements do not sync
Dears, I intend to create a custom interface through a PowerBI report in Fabric to distribute Purview Unified Catalog browser. I use the feature "Unified Catalog Self-Serve Analytics" to deliver the Unified Data Catalog content in a Fabric Lakehouse. However, from the 44 data products created, only 22 are delivered to the lakehouse, in the data product table I have tried in different lakehouse, same result. I would love some advice to help me configure this properly. Do you face the same issue ? Best, Antoine99Views0likes2Comments
How to cancel a Norton subscription Allow Uniqueness of Glossary Terms across Governance Domains
When glossary terms are created and published, there is no check for the same term name in another governance domain. Some organizations do want to enforce term uniqueness across all domains.
