Hardware Management
Hardware Management is a new technology that enables system administrators to manage remote computers using SOAP-based protocols and standard Web services. In addition, Hardware Management provides a command-line interface for common management tasks, providing a quick and easy alternative to writing WMI scripts. From the command prompt, an administrator can connect to a remote computer (using the HTTPS secure protocol) and do everything from retrieve a list of services installed on that computer to modify the size of any page files found on that computer.
MMC 2.1
MMC 2.1 supports richer functionality in snap-ins that are written to take advantage of the MMC 2.1 infrastructure. In addition, there are several improvements that apply to any MMC 2.1 console:
Action pane
The Action pane appears at the right-hand side of the snap-in console. It lists the actions that are currently available to you, based on the currently selected items in the tree or the results pane.
To show or hide the action pane, click the Show/Hide Action Pane button in the toolbar, which is similar to the Show/Hide Tree button.
New Add/Remove Snap-in dialog box
The new Add/Remove Snap-in dialog box makes it easy to add, organize, and remove snap-ins. You can control which extensions are available, and whether to automatically enable snap-ins that may be installed later. You can nest snap-ins and rearrange the snap-ins in the tree.
To use this dialog box in this Beta version, you must manually set a registry key.
Improved error handling
MMC 2.1 notifies you of errors in snap-ins that could cause MMC to fail, and provides several options for responding to those errors.
Features for Active Directory:
Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM)
Active Directory Application Mode (ADAM) is an independent mode of Active Directory, without infrastructure features, that provides directory services for applications. It provides a data store and services for accessing the data store. It uses standard application programming interfaces (APIs) for accessing the application data. ADAM operates either as a standalone data store, or it operates with replication. Its independence enables local control and autonomy of directory services for specific applications. It also facilitates independent, flexible schemas and naming contexts.
Active Directory Federation Services
The fundamental purpose of Active Directory Federation Services is to leverage single user sign-on to authenticate the user to multiple related web applications over the life of a single online session. ADFS does this by securely sharing digital identity and entitlement rights across security and enterprise boundaries.
Identity Management for UNIX
Windows Services for UNIX delivers Windows and UNIX integration with the following updated identity management solutions. These solutions help provide uninterrupted user access and efficient management of network resources across operating systems:
Server for NIS. Helps integrate Windows and UNIX-based Network Information Service (NIS) servers by enabling an Active Directory domain controller to act as a master NIS server for one or more NIS domains.
Password Synchronization. Helps integrate Windows and UNIX servers by simplifying the process of maintaining secure passwords. With Password Synchronization, users do not need to maintain separate passwords for their Windows and UNIX accounts or remember to change the password in multiple locations.
Disk and file management features:
Branch Office
Windows Server 2003 R2 provides technologies that assist in simplifying branch office management for the following scenarios:
Publishing files from centralized hubs to branch offices.
Replicating files from branch to hub locations for backup, fault tolerance, or cross-branch publishing.
Loose collaboration of documents between branches or between hubs and branches.
Efficient management of printers in branch offices, including drivers and queue management.
These scenarios are supported by the Distributed File System solution, which includes new tools for DFS Namespaces and a new replication engine known as DFS Replication, and enhanced print management tools.
Distributed File System (DFS)
The Distributed File System (DFS) solution in Windows Server 2003 R2 provides simplified, fault-tolerant access to files and WAN-friendly replication. Distributed File System consists of two technologies:
DFS Namespaces. Formerly known as Distributed File System, DFS Namespaces allows administrators to group shared folders located on different servers and present them to users as a virtual tree of folders known as a namespace. A namespace provides numerous benefits, including increased availability of data, load sharing, and simplified data migration.
DFS Replication. The successor to File Replication service (FRS), DFS Replication is a new state-based, multimaster replication engine that supports scheduling and bandwidth throttling. DFS Replication uses a new compression algorithm known as Remote Differential Compression (RDC). RDC is a "diff over the wire" protocol that can be used to efficiently update files over a limited-bandwidth network. RDC detects insertions, removals, re-arrangements of data in files, enabling DFS Replication to replicate only the deltas (changes) when files are updated.
Print Management
Print Management is an MMC snap-in console that enables you to view and manage all the printers on every print server in your organization from any computer on the network running Windows Server 2003 R2. The snap-in console provides up-to-the-minute details such as the queue status, printer name, number of jobs, driver name, and server name. By using the Print Management filtering capability, you can set custom views. For example, you could show only those printers in a particular error state or only printers in a specific location that have more than one job in the queue.
Filtering by error state also allows you to manage multiple queues at once. For example, you can select more than one printer and then cancel, pause, or resume all the print jobs simultaneously. You can also delete multiple printers at the same time.
The automatic detect feature finds and install printers from the local subnet to the local print server. Administrators can log on to a branch location's local server by using Remote Desktop and use this feature to easily install printers remotely.
In cases where a printer has an internal Web page, Print Management may display rich troubleshooting details such as exactly where a paper jam is happening or its toner level. Some internal Web pages give the Administrator options for remote control functions that can help resolve problems at branch locations. By using Print Management, the printer Administrator may have a clearer picture of the problem before assistance is needed.
Common Log File System (CLFS)
Common Log File System (CLFS) is a loadable driver that provides kernel- or user-mode applications with a robust logging subsystem. CLFS is a unique Windows technology that can be used to develop applications and middleware which depend on durably writing and reading sequential data. Examples include replication agents, auditing agents, databases, and other transactional resource managers.
Features include the ability to create log files with a single stream of data or with multiple streams of data for shared use by one or more clients; both circular and linear logging; guaranteed ability to flush buffered data by pre-reserving space in the log; policy based log size and space management; sharing of a single log by both kernel and user clients; a notification mechanism to allow different users within the same log to coordinate their log use; flexible buffering of log data; archiving APIs do not interfere with normal operations; atomic multi-sector writes; and torn-write detection.
CLFS is optimized for performance. All writes to the log file are buffered until an explicit flush, an opportunity to share a write with another client, or the buffer is filled. Log data is written directly to the hard disk from the log buffers without copying. Multiple streams of data can be written during the same I/O operation, resulting in only one disk seek for what normally takes multiple seeks and writes. Reads are cached to save disk accesses during normal operation or bursts of read activity.
File Server Management Snap-in
File servers are used to provide and manage access to files. The File Server Management Snap-in provides a single interface to add, remove and manage the file server features including new components such as Directory Quotas, File Screening, Storage Reports, Storage Management for SANS, Distributed File System (DFS), File Replication service (FRS) and Windows Services for NFS.
Microsoft Services for Network File System (MSNFS)
Microsoft Services for Network File System (MSNFS) provides Windows-based implementations of both the client and server aspects of Network File System (NFS), as well as related services and utilities. The primary purpose of MSNFS is to provide an interoperability solution for enterprise businesses that have both Windows-based and UNIX-based clients. MSNFS supports the Network File System (NFS) protocol and provides file sharing interoperability between Windows and Unix machines. Also, it provides a strategy for migrating from mixed or UNIX-based client environments to Windows. Moreover, MSNFS is now an integrated part of Windows Server.
MSNFS can provide:
64-bit support
Better interoperation between SMB and NFS
Improved Reliability
Support for NFS Devices (MKNOD)
Storage Management for SANs
Storage Management for SANs is a software tool that you can use to create and manage the LUNs (logical units) that are used to allocate space on storage arrays. Storage Management for SANs can be used on storage area networks (SANs) that support Virtual Disk Server (VDS). It can be used in both Fibre Channel and iSCSI environments.
Use the Create LUN Wizard to create a LUN (logical unit), which is used to allocate space on a storage array. You can assign a server to the LUN as you create it or wait until you are ready to deploy the LUN.
Storage Resource Manager
With the increasing demand on storage resources, and as organizations rely more heavily on data than ever before, IT administrators face the challenge of overseeing a larger and more complex storage infrastructure, while, at the same time, tracking the many types of information available in it.
Storage Resource Manager is a suite of tools that allows administrators to understand, control, and manage the quantity and type of data stored on their servers. By using Storage Resource Manager, administrators can place quotas on volumes, actively screen files and folders, and generate comprehensive storage reports.
Storage Resource Manager quotas vs. NTFS disk quotas
The Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003 operating systems support disk quotas, which are used to track and control disk usage per user on NTFS volumes. The following table outlines the advantages of using the quota management tools in Storage Resource Manager.
Quota features Storage Resource Manager NTFS disk quotas
Quota tracking By folder or by volume Per user on a volume
Disk usage calculation Actual disk space Logical file size
Notification mechanisms E-mail, custom reports, command execution, event logs Event logs only
