dnGREP has a very nice feature Perhaps it is the kind you were referring to re/ the option to pin I mention it here because I am enthralled by it and may quite probably utilize it in a future project and perhaps may be useful to yourself dnGREP displays the source file of found matches in a docked right pane That pane has an NE pointing arrow in its' top right corner Whilst clicking upon said arrow the pane becomes floating It too has an arrow in the same top right corner this time pointing SE which of course re-docks it back to its' original location - Cheerio

It took most of the day between repeated merge conflicts and C++ linker weirdness coupled with toolchain weirdness but I got GFX and the GFX Demo project updated at github.
That's a huge weight off my mind. Whenever I have something that I know is being used that I also know has problems it eats at me.
Now that I've identified and fixed (I hope) all the potential issues, and reposted the massive updates I feel so much better about today.
This was the mountain of code I mentioned the other day. As far as maintaining it, that tiger has successfully been grabbed by the tail.
I even updated the esp32 subreddit with my changes.
I don't know if any of you get that gnawing concern over broken source, even if it's only broken for certain scenarios, but once I've published an article about something, if I know something has been wrong with it this whole time it puts me on edge.

I bought this Windows Server STD 2019 16-core system, but not sure how to install it.
I plan to install this onto my Dell T5810 workstation with 6 cores.
Is there any difference than installing retail version of Windows Server STD 2019?
any experience or suggestion to share?

this is for my personal hobby and I am a developer guy, not good at hardware and OS installation. I got this copy from eBay.

Just wanted to say that I do enjoy your comments pretty well most of the time.
You are greater than your sig and I love your contribution.

Um.
You are buying Operating Systems on Fleabay?
The only reason I can think of for that is "extreme cheapness" and that's a red flag to me. Is it genuine? Not locked to a specific hardware setup? Does the seller still exist? How many times has he sold the same software (or software code)?
You get what you pay for in this life: And the OS is kinda important - if it isn't genuine and sold under the MS T'n'C's - MS will turn it off if / when they spot it.
I've seen that before with friends who happily ran pirate Win 7, until the day it told them "this is not a genuine copy" and disabled pretty much everything until they sent MS a lot of money ...
I could be wrong, but there are a lot of crooks on FleaBay, and "cheap software" is one way they make money.

it is a genuine copy since it was sent to me a hard copy, as showed in the image. the literals are the exactly same as I demo here( I erased one word and put "STD" there to be precise).
it carries a product license key too.

The only reason (technically, not legally) to install from an OEM version is to get all the proprietary drivers for the custom hardware slipstreamed into it. Unless this disc (I'm assuming that's what it is) is tailored specifically for the Dell hardware you bought, then I don't see the point of using that over a retail version.
How much does Dell want anyway for a Server 2019 disc with their own drivers that they will vouch for?

Dell drivers are free to download. I will give a try to see how things go.

Yeah...was just pointing out that the benefit of having "the" CD for the exact model of OEM hardware is that you don't have to guess exactly what you have and which driver(s) apply. If you have the wrong CD with the wrong preloaded drivers, I could see how you could end up in a worse place than if you had started with a retail CD with no proprietary driver whatsoever.

you hit bull's eye: that's why I posted my question here to see if I could get any useful info before I dive into installation....

Which license version you have (OEM, retail, whatever) doesn't much change the install/configure job. You can use it like almost any other version of Windows OS. But, are you going to:
1. Use it as a PDC (Primary Domain Controller)?
2. DHCP server (it will want to do that)?
3. DNS server?
4. Create your own domain for it?
5. Exchange server with dig cert? Real domain account?
6. File server? FTP?
etc, etc
Actually, you can get a 6 month full blown trial key for nothing.
In fact, I would get one and run it in a Virtual Machine before using your retail version. I do that to test doing upgrades.
Oh, yeah, find a good on-line reference for configuring it. Mark Minasi used to do good books back in the 2003 versions, not sure if he is still around.
Happy learning. I have 3 different servers running as VM's in a T5810. I don't connect many users to it, use it for testing.
You will be limited to # of users by the license(s) you bought.

your questions are very insightful. thanks.
actually I only run it as a standalone workstation.
what attracts me is that 16core power since this Dell T5810 has 6 core.
I will run a datamining application written in .NET and it may be running all day long.
I already ordered one book from Mark Minasi on Windows server 2012. I personally configured Windows server 2009 long time ago.

Well, correct me if I am wrong, I think the 16 core is a licensing thing, not a performance thing.

you remind me of using Windows 10 pro instead. I don't need to have server version of OS indeed.
I only dedicate this machine to run one application all day long. this is my goal.

You got scammed. That image was of a Windows Server DataCenter edition. DataCenter is almost always only sold with hardware. You can see the word Datacenter poorly scratched out and STD written over it.
