Watch out for the cores/sockets properties too. Desktop Windows can limit the available resources if every core is a different socket. See http://clouddocs.web.cern.ch/clouddocs/details/image_properties.html

Cloudbase offers the tool to build there Images on Github.

https://github.com/cloudbase/windows-openstack-imaging-tools

—snip—
The following versions of Windows images (both x86 / x64, if existent) to be generated are supported:

• Windows Server 2008 / 2008 R2
• Windows Server 2012 / 2012 R2
• Windows Server 2016
• Windows 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10
—snap—

So you can build an image for Windows 2016.

HTH, Christian.
