-----------------------------------------------------------------
A. PLATFORMS AND WINDOWS[R] VERSIONS SUPPORTED
===============================================
Diskeeper runs on the Intel[R] x86 platform (including compatible
CPUs from other manufacturers) running Windows Vista[TM], Windows
Home Server, Windows Server[TM] 2003, Windows XP, or Windows 2000.
Note that Windows 2000 systems must be running Service Pack 3 or
higher.
The Windows versions supported vary by Diskeeper edition.
See the Table of Supported Operating Systems later in this
document for a chart of the different Diskeeper editions and
the Windows versions each supports.
Note that x64 versions of Diskeeper will only install on x64
editions of Windows.
B. OVERVIEW OF DISKEEPER 2008
==============================
For over a decade, Diskeeper has led the way in Windows system
defragmentation technology, and Diskeeper 2008 continues with
the tradition of true Set It and Forget It[R] performance
enhancement that is a hallmark of the Diskeeper name.
Whether you抳e used Diskeeper before or not, you may already be
familiar with some of its features, but Diskeeper 2008 adds
refinements to these features, and a number of other core
enhancements. New users will find Diskeeper to be easy to use,
yet comprehensive in its capabilities. Experienced Diskeeper
users will recognize familiar features, but see improvements
in Diskeeper (and their system) performance.
This list summarizes the most important features in the various
editions. More information about each of these features is
available in the Diskeeper Help system:
Fully Automatic Operation
-------------------------
Diskeeper is designed to operate without your intervention.
Simply install Diskeeper, then sit back and let it take care of
the details. Of course, you can also run Diskeeper manually.
(But you probably have better things to do with your time.
That抯 what Automatic Defragmentation with InvisiTasking is
for!)
Diskeeper Family of Products
----------------------------
The Diskeeper family of products offers specialized automatic
defragmentation of Windows operating systems ranging from
Windows 2000 through Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Home
Server, and Windows Server 2003 Datacenter.
Descriptive Console Interface
-----------------------------
The Diskeeper console provides an intuitive and informative
defragmentation experience. Common commands are grouped together
in the Quick Launch pane, and a group of tabbed panes show you
a wide variety of information. Diskeeper shows you the condition
of your disks, and provides suggestions for improving or
maintaining your disks.
Performance and Volume Health Analysis
--------------------------------------
Diskeeper collects and displays data regarding the performance
and overall health of your volumes in the Dashboard tab. This
information allows you to be more proactive in the management
and maintenance of your computers.
I-FAAST[R] (Intelligent File Access Acceleration Technology)
------------------------------------------------------------
Intelligent File Access Acceleration Sequencing Technology
(I-FAAST) improves file access/creation by up to 80% (average
10%-20%) above and beyond the improvement provided by
defragmentation alone. This is the first industry implementation
of "Disk Performance Calibration", the modern evolution of the
outdated and inconclusive disk optimization strategies of the
past.
Frag Shield[TM]
---------------
One situation that can impair the performance and reliability of
your computer is fragmentation of the Master File Table (MFT) on
NTFS volumes and your paging files. Since the operating system
relies heavily on the MFT and paging file, the effect of
fragmentation is often much greater than when a normal file is
fragmented. The Frag Shield feature keeps your MFTs defragmented
automatically, and monitors paging file usage and makes
suggestions to keep it performing at its best, too.
Terabyte Volume Engine[TM]
--------------------------
A Diskeeper exclusive, the Terabyte Volume Engine (TVE) is
designed to efficiently defragment extremely large (larger than
60 GB) volumes. This feature is available in selected Diskeeper
editions.
Boot-Time Defragmentation
-------------------------
Defragment files at boot-time that cannot be moved safely when
Windows is running.
Exclusion Lists
---------------
Diskeeper exclusion lists allow you to specify files and
directories that will not be allowed to be processed by
Diskeeper.
Event Logging
-------------
Diskeeper records information about its activity in two ways.
First, general information about previously-run defragmentation
job is shown in the Log tab within the Diskeeper console.
Additional information can also be stored in a log file. A wide
variety of information can be saved for future reference.
Simultaneous Analysis or Defragmentation Operations
---------------------------------------------------
You can analyze and/or defragment more than one disk volume at
a time. Different Diskeeper editions support different numbers
of simultaneous operations.
Command Line Operation
----------------------
You can use commands from the Windows Command Prompt or a
batch file to control Diskeeper.
Group Policy Support
--------------------
Diskeeper can be configured network-wide with the Group Policy
Editor provided with Windows 2000 Server, Windows Server 2003,
Windows XP, and Windows Vista.
C. CHANGES IN DISKEEPER 2008
=============================
Here is a summary of what抯 new in this version:
o Complete file and free space defragmentation in the most
extreme of conditions
Diskeeper 2008 introduces the most powerful defragmentation
engine ever developed. Even if your systems only have a
percent or two of free space left available or a file in
millions of fragments, Diskeeper can restore lost performance
and save the applications reliant on those files from major
reliability concerns.
o Core "Defragmentation Intelligence" Enhancements
The brains behind defragmentation is the Diskeeper
"controller丒 which has been re-designed to deliver
performance benefit faster and more efficiently. The
controller抯 job is to detect various volume and system
conditions and choose the most effective algorithm from
the vast arsenal of Diskeeper defragmentation engines.
o Frag Shield 2.0
Frag Shield is the first and only technology to prevent
system file fragmentation gets better. No more need to run a
manual and resource-intensive process. Frag Shield抯 MFT
fragmentation prevention technology is now fully automatic
and re-written to operate invisibly using InvisiTasking
technology.
o Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) Compatibility Mode
Defragmenting VSS-enabled volumes has been complicated,
until now. Diskeeper 2008 eliminates the need to choose
between the benefits of VSS and defragmentation. The new
VSS-compatible mode in Diskeeper 2008 affords you the
ability to leverage the data protection of VSS and the
performance and reliability of Diskeeper defragmentation.
o Disk Performance Analyzer for Networks (DPAN)
The award winning network analysis product from Diskeeper
Corporation with over 30,000 downloads is now integrated into
Diskeeper Administrator. In Diskeeper 2008 the clientless
performance analysis technology gets a full update and tight
integration with Diskeeper Administrator抯 industry-pioneering
performance management functionality. Now you can get
real-time performance metrics with high-level visual graphs
and detailed fragmentation data on-demand or e-mailed
automatically.
o A special Diskeeper Edition for Windows Home Server (WHS)
Diskeeper 2008 HomeServer is the only defragmentation solution
specifically designed for Windows Home Server operating system.
Diskeeper HomeServer provides a snap-in to the new WHS console,
supporting full remote management and configuration capability
from any PC in a SOHO network.
o ...and of course the InvisiTasking technology continues as the
underlying technology in Diskeeper. InvisiTasking is not
merely an enhancement to existing features; it allows the Set
It and Forget It tradition of Diskeeper to evolve to a new
level of autonomous operation that provides real-time
defragmentation of files without any administrative effort.
D. CHANGES IN THIS RELEASE
===========================
1. This is the initial public release of Diskeeper 2008.
E. KNOWN ISSUES IN THIS RELEASE
================================
1. Although Diskeeper itself is fully compliant with
Section 508 (accessibility) standards, 508 compliance is
not yet fully implemented into the Diskeeper installation
procedure.
2. Some of the Diskeeper installation dialogs do not display
correctly on computers using the High Contrast Black display
setting under the Windows Accessibility Options. Note,
however, the Diskeeper console does display correctly on
these computers.
3. When running Diskeeper from the Windows command prompt, the
/d parameter is not an optional parameter; it is required.
4. Note that these files are not removed when Diskeeper is
uninstalled:
Productname.msi (for example, Diskeeper 2008 Server.msi)
DKDesktopShortcut_A4ED7F98B2A54A06855C7E8804E8460E.exe
These files are open during the uninstallation process, but
they can safely be deleted afterwards.
5. When clicking links within Diskeeper that open web browsers,
Diskeeper typically launches whichever browser has been set
as the system default. However, on Windows Vista and Windows
Server 2003, Internet Explorer is opened, regardless of the
system default setting.
6. Under rare circumstances, an error message stating "Unhandled
Exception Error 0x0000005 Press "ESC" to reboot system" may
be displayed when a Boot-Time defragmentation operation is in
progress. This message is displayed when the Boot-Time
defragmentation engine does not receive the expected data
from the operating system. If this occurs, the Boot-Time
engines safely stop any further processing, to ensure the
integrity of your system.
7. When installing Diskeeper 2008 over an existing Diskeeper
2007 system, in some cases the Diskeeper 2007 does not
stop correctly. This can result in long completion times
for the installation operation, or a crash of the Diskeeper
Service. The installation will complete successfully after
the Diskeeper 2007 Service is stopped.
F. KNOWN INCOMPATIBILITIES
===========================
1. Diskeeper will not run on disk volumes that are locked by
utilities such as CHKDSK or Scandisk.
2. The Hercules Terminator AGP 128/3D "GLH" 8MB also does not
appear to display the full Boot-Time dialog, and thus appears
to hang when the "Pause to view screen after defragmentation"
option in the Diskeeper Boot-Time Properties as been enabled.
3. The keyboard functions during a Boot-Time Defragmentation job
do not work on all combinations of hardware, HAL (hardware
abstraction layer), and operating systems. We are working to
provide keyboard access from the greatest combination of
these elements, but if your system does not respond to the
keyboard functions during a boot-time, please report the
hardware configuration and full operating system version to
Diskeeper Corporation Technical Support at this address:
([email protected]).
Providing this information may help us determine why certain
combinations of hardware and software cannot access the
keyboard functions during Boot-Time Defragmentation.
4. Diskeeper is compatible with Roxio GoBack. Note, however,
that you should add the "gobackio.bin" file to the Diskeeper
exclusion list. After doing so, should be no problems
running GoBack along with Diskeeper.
5. The free space figures displayed in the Diskeeper MMC snap-in
may not match those shown in the Diskeeper report view if
you are running Norton Protect.
6. Problems have been noted when Diskeeper is running on systems
that are also running Norton Internet Security Package with
the Anti-Virus component enabled. Enabling port 135 on the
affected computer corrects the problem.
7. If you are running Diskeeper on a CITRIX server, exclude the
"TAB.DLL" and "DkTabProvider.DLL from the CITRIX Memory
Optimizer feature. If these files are not excluded, the
CITRIX Memory Optimizer will flag them as being "tampered",
when in fact they are not.
G. INSTALLING DISKEEPER
========================
Note: Make sure you are logged onto an account that is a member
of the Administrators group.
Diskeeper is available either as a downloaded self-extracting
compressed file, or on CD-ROM. The following instructions
apply to both formats.
Follow these steps to install Diskeeper:
The Diskeeper installation is typically fast and simple.
Here are the basic steps:
1. Insert the Diskeeper CD-ROM into the appropriate drive on
your computer. (If you are installing from a downloaded
file, double-click the file you downloaded.)
2. Follow the screens displayed, answering the questions
asked as prompted.
For more details about installing Diskeeper, see the "Diskeeper
Installation" chapter in the Diskeeper User's Manual.
H. UNINSTALLING DISKEEPER
==========================
To uninstall Diskeeper, you must be logged into an account that
is a member of the Administrators group.
Follow these steps to completely remove and uninstall Diskeeper
from your computer. Note that the controls may have slightly
different names, depending on your version of Windows:
1. From Control Panel, double click "Add/Remove Programs".
2. Highlight the Diskeeper entry.
3. Click Remove. This removes the Diskeeper program files
from your computer. In most cases, the Diskeeper
installation directory will not be removed.
4. During the uninstall process, the Windows Disk Defragmenter
is restored to the state it was in before Diskeeper was
installed.
5. Manually delete the Diskeeper installation directory if it
exists.
Note: If the MMC has been installed on your computer, it will
not be removed when Diskeeper is uninstalled.
