Sample text

With Server 2008 R2, Microsoft extended Server Manager’s power by adding the ability to use Server Manager to control remote servers, or at least to control some things on remote servers, most notably adding and removing roles and features. exe tool and a group of PowerShell cmdlets. | New Management Tools 11 Where to read more on these tools? Well, Server Manager’s use is so powerful and wideranging that it would have been ludicrous to put it all in one chapter, so you’ll find it in at least part of a good number of chapters.

But it ain’t a perfect world, and sometimes we need to locate a DC in a branch office where there is no place to physically secure that DC—a fact that’s kept many a Windows security professional up late at night since AD’s inception in 2000. Windows Server 2008 offers a solution in the form of a new kind of DC called a read-only domain controller (RODC). RODCs can act as DCs in that they can help users get authenticated to the file, print, and web servers that those users need to access. They are, however, different from traditional “readwrite” DCs in that you can control exactly how much information they contain.

You don’t really do databases? Well, for example, AD is a database, Exchange Server is a database, and SharePoint is a database. In fact, “64-bitness” has been a major factor in deciding to go to Exchange Server 2007; my clients with large message stores tell me that Exchange Server just flies on a system with a ton of RAM. Getting the Most from 64 Bits 64 bits is pretty neat, but merely having a 64-bit OS may not be enough to offer the sort of better performance that I’ve promised here. For example, a Server 2008 R2 system running a 32-bit version of SQL Server 2008 (Microsoft’s database server product) on a server containing 16GB of RAM could use most of that 16GB to store its AD but only 2GB to hold SQL Server databases because the SQL Server database engine only sees 32-bit-sized memory.
