Windows Sever 2016

1.Introduction to File and Storage Services in Windows Server 2016Introduction to files and storage solutions1.Command line:everything that you can do in a graphical user interface can also be done in a command line but the command line offers us even more options using switches.these switches allows us to do things that the graphical user interface was never designed to do2.file Resource manager: is one of those great utilities that does a lot of different things.One of those things is it allows us to set quotas on users3.Dynamic access control:change the file classification types,4.Distributed file system:For instance, if we have two different servers in an office that we want to make that data highly available and redundant, we can synchronize that data between the two servers. 5.iSCSI and networking storage:you can use iSCSI on another server and connect that server back to the original server using an ethernet cable and the iSCSI protocol. This is using networking storage and the iSCSI protocol together. The server with the extra storage is called the iSCSI target. And the server trying to get that extra storage is called the iSCSI initiator. We set these two different features up on the servers and then tie them together so the one server can use the storage of the other. Computer management demonstration1. shared folders ：  create a new share：click on shared folders and then shares=>click new=》 click on the path to the folder that we want=》 click okay=>click next=> we can change the shared name, put in a description if we want, and we can also change the offline setting for people who would like to synchronize with the local computer.  (choose the customized permissions )=>click finish# we can going to Windows Explorer, putting in the UNC path to our server and we can see the test folder has been created. 2. disk management :e we can right click and we can create all different kinds of disk types, if we had multiple disks and we will do that in upcoming videos. We can also convert to dynamic disk we can go to properties and various other options. 3. Sessions(in the shared folders) :allows us to see how many different people are connected to our server, where as open files allows us to see what files they have open.4. file opened :we click back on our computer management and we can see that we have the file opened.5. backupServer Manager storage role services explained 1.we can do more things in the interfaces at the right ‘task’,which we can choose ‘New…’ and so on2.BranchCache:It allows us to cache commonly used files by users in remotely connected offices, that way they can have faster access to these files without needing to go across a VPN or MPLS tunnel to get the files off of the server in the home office anytime they want to use them. 3.Data Deduplication :allows the server to remove duplicate files by creating a single file location that points to where the other duplicate files would have been. This can save a lot of hard drive space and it can also make your back ups run much faster. 2.File Server Resource Manager: help us classify files and sets quotas for users for more data manageability. 3.VSS Agent Services:The VSS Agent Services allows us to back up running applications the same way Volume Shadow Copy Services allows us to back up open files.4.The iSCSI Target Server :allows us to use the storage from one server as the storage that’s available to another server.5.Server for NFS:allows the sharing of data with Linux and UNIX computers, and uses the NFS protocol for any devices that may require it.6.Work Folders :is an exciting way to share data with people outside of your domain and forest through a secure website. It’s very similar to the DropBox网路随身碟（软件名）  idea where you drop a file into a location that goes to a server in the cloud and then can synchronize that data with other users, who may or may not be part of your active directory organization. Command-line disk formatting 1. DiskPart:it allows us to do things like list the disks that we see on our server. It also allows us to list the volumes. 2. Input diskpart in cmd(run as a administrator)C:\Users\Administrator>diskpart DISKPART> list disk   Disk ###  Status         Size     Free     Dyn  Gpt  --------  -------------  -------  -------  —  —  Disk 0    Online           60 GB      0 B        ** Disk 1    Online           60 GB    56 GB        * DISKPART> list the volumnMicrosoft DiskPart version 10.0.14393.0DISK        - Display a list of disks. For example, LIST DISK.PARTITION   - Display a list of partitions on the selected disk.              For example, LIST PARTITION.VOLUME      - Display a list of volumes. For example, LIST VOLUME.VDISK       - Displays a list of virtual disks. Disk 1 is now the selected disk. DISKPART> cleanDiskPart succeeded in cleaning the disk.#in this step we can initialize(初始化) the disk DISKPART> convert gptDiskPart successfully converted the selected disk to GPT format. DISKPART> create partition primary size 3000DiskPart succeeded in creating the specified partition.      (in this way we can find every command lines)  (We can simply exchange cmd with powershell)  (We can type these codes to do the same ting in cmd) (For more information,we can search in the internet)Command-line file utilities 1.mkdir and rmdir:make directory and remove directory2.Net use:allows us to map a drive to a share that we’ve created and we’ll be creating a folder and a share and then mapping it to a drive letter.3. Net share:Net share command shares the folders that we’re going to create and there’s lots of different switches and options for this, such as we can create the share, we can delete the share, we can set who can use the share as well.4.Net group is a command-line that allows us to create a security group without having to go through active directory users and computers. (make the directory)(change to C drive)(look for the directories)(clean the screen)(net share set)(net use set)(net share delete)(remove the directories)(net group set) Volumes and disks 1.two different types of disks : they are called basic and dynamic.2.basic:1)format the partitions2)mark partitions as active3)create and delete primary and extended partitions4)create and delete logical drives5)convert the basic disk to dynamic3.dynamic；1）create and extend volumes2）remove or break a mirrored volume3）extend simple or spanned volumes4）convert back from dynamic to basic,2.Configure advanced files servciesConfigure Network File System (NFS) data store   Intall it Make a new share Set some properties Add permissions (in linux) Configure BranchCache （in pictures） Configure File Server Resource Manager Configure file access auditing 6.Distributed File System(DFS)Installation of DFS role 1. The Distributed File System role is a set of two role services that covers both a DFS namespace and replication.2. The DFS namespace allows the administrator to have the same name point to more than one server. If a server goes down, then DNS will automatically redirect the user to the other available server.3. DFS replication is an optional role that also replicates data between two server shares. You can use the namespace role with or without it.4. Installing: add roles and features option=>file and storage services=>DFS namespace and add the features, and DFS replication.=>install.5. manage:Tools=>DFS management.DFS namespace 1. set up a namespace：click on Namespaces=>choose New Namespace=>choose the server(if can not browse,just input PC name)=>set name(you can also choose ‘edit setting’ to set more details,for example,location and folds permissions.NOTICE:we’re going to choose the Use custom permissions because by default, none of these other options give our users enough access. So click Use custom permissions, and give everyone full access. Now this does not mean we’re giving everyone full access to be able to do whatever they want in the folders. )=>NEXT(NOTICE:Since we’re using active directory and we’re adding additional servers, we’re going to go ahead and choose Domain-based namespace. But if you’re not using active directory, then you would choose the stand alone option. You could also use stand alone if you’re using a sandbox or development server where you don’t want it to be broadcasted onto the entire active directory domain. )=>create2. add a new folderChoose New Folder.=>add the name and click Browse=>add folder targets(we can add it many times ,even in another sever[if we want to do it ,just chose another sever])=>OK=>it’s asking if I want to create a replication group(both is OK)3. Namespace Server is different than a shared folder. A Namespace Server does the management of the namespace itself. So it gives us some redundancy in case there’s any kind of problem. (so that both servers can be used for the namespace management. )4. We can also click on Delegation and change who can make changes to this namespace. 5.  if we have a lot of namespaces, we can click on Search and it will search all the folders and folder targets for us in case we don’t want to scroll through and try to manually hunt them down.6.
