I believe you're going to need a Win8.x or 2012 box to run the required tools.
You're essentially trying to manage it from a Win7 equivalent. You can manage
older servers with the newer tools but the other way is hit or miss, mostly
miss.

I was trying to connect from a 2008r2 full gui server ,
using both computer management and server manager, are you saying to install
RSAT on the 08 server?

How are you trying to connect remotely?
You are correct that there are 'services and features' missing from Core.
That's why they call it Core. Pretty much all the GUI stuff is unavailable.
Generally, I add the RSAT to a desktop in the domain and can access the servers
from that computer.

Subject: [NTSysADM] remote mgmnt of core
Hi all,
As I stated in previous this is my first full go at core 2012r2, one of the
main issues I am getting is when I try to remote manage one,
It will throw an error that it is not available, however, I can see things
like USERS and GROUPS, Shares, Services, but other things such as Disk
management, Event viewer, tell me that its unavailable please make sure the
computer in online (which obviously it is as I can see other things)
I speculate that certain "services or features are missing from core?" that I
need to add perhaps?
Any feedback is appreciated.
TIA
