DPSearch18.1: Anyone know how to install this in a hyper-v?
So we don't have vmware, and dpsearch seems to be a vmware install only. I converted the tar to a vhdx file, but I can not seem to find anything on installing the os and application appliance. I can get the created vhdx file to boot up, but the vmware aspect I think runs all the install and setup in the templates. Did anyone try doing this before? I need to get the actual os and dpsearch to install on the correct partitions. I currently have 4 total. the 4GB tar, 40GB os, 209GB (data?) and a swap/temp part of 125GB. per the install guide recommendations. If it is impossible then I will skip dp search altogether.
No Events found!

So I have been poking around the vhdx some and I see the start.sh file initiates things using VMware if I reading this right. the only thing I have not figured out is how it deploys the OS into the new 40GB vhd drive.

Actually, after running some disk commands I think vmdk converted to vhdx is a 40GB dynamic disk, and I just need to replace my fixed empty 40GB disk with this one and then deploy the software, I think the scripts are using Ruby to deploy dpsearch after VMware sets up the vm. I suspect I just need to convert the resulting VHDX file to a fixed size and sort out some OS configuration options the dpsearch appliance setup/configuration.
