Databases needed for Backup and Recovery
Backing up TFS
• Manually backing up TFS– HARD– http://examcr.am/15hOm4P
• Using the Database Backup Tools (TFS 2012 Power Tools)– EASY – Follow the wizard– (But not on exam since it’s part of the power tools)
• Using the Scheduled Backup feature (Update 2)– EASY – Follow the wizard– (But not on exam since it’s part of Update 2)– http://examcr.am/11n8LED
Recover an application tier
• Simply install a new application tier– Be sure to create the right security accounts on the new
hardware• All TFS Administrators must be added to the AT’s local
Administrators group
• Run the Application-Tier Only wizard from the TFS 2012 install media
• Run the TFS Administration Console– Choose Application Tier -> Change URLs– Enter the URL to the new Application Tier
Pro Tip: You can also use the Change URLs window to allow TFS to use a fully qualified name such as tfs.nwcadence.com
Recover a data tier
• Restore the databases to a new SQL Server
• Run the TFSConfig RemapDBs command
Pro Tip: With Update 2, this is now much easier since you can use the Scheduled Backup feature
TFSConfig RemapDBs /DatabaseName:ServerName;DatabaseName /SQLInstances:ServerName1,ServerName2 [/AnalysisInstance:ServerName] [/AnalysisDatabaseName:DatabaseName] [/preview] [/continue] [/usesqlalwayson]
Refreshing Data Caches on Client Computers• If Work Item caches are causing errors, invoke the
StampWorkitemCache web method– On the New Server, and only once for entire organization– http:// {tfsName}:8080/WorkItemTracking/v3.0/
ClientService.asmx– Invoke StampWorkitemCache method
• If Version Control cache is causing errors, invoke the tf.exe workspaces command– On every client computer in the organization– tf workspaces
/collection:http://{tfsName}:8080/tfs/CollectionName

Microsoft Virtual AcademyMonitor server health and
performance
What the Study Guide says…
• Monitor server health and performance.–monitoring the server for performance issues (monitoring
activity logging database and Team Foundation Server manager)
–monitoring the job infrastructure for failed jobs (monitoring warehouse adapters and warehouse jobs)
– cleanup of stale workspaces and shelvesets– setting up Team Foundation Build to use a version control
proxy server

Monitoring warehouse adapters and jobs• WarehouseControlWebService– http://
localhost:8080/tfs/TeamFoundation/Administration/v3.0/WarehouseControlService.asmx
Performance of individual commands
• Dbo.tbl_Command– Found in Tfs_Configuration database–Measures performance of individual commands
• http://localhost:8080/tfs/_oi– Activity log– Job monitoring
Cleaning up stale workspaces and shelvesets• Tf workspaces– List all the workspaces for
a person– Update user name or
computer name
• Tf workspace– Create or delete
workspace– Change workspace
properties
• Tf shelvesets– Lists information about
shelvesets
• Tf shelve– Create or delete a
shelveset
• Tf status– Displays information
about pending changes
Configure Team Build to use a Proxy Server1. On the server that is running Team Foundation Build Service, click
Start, click Run, type regedit, and then click OK.
2. In the browser pane, expand HKEY_CURRENT USER to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\10.0\TeamFoundation\SourceControl\Proxy.
3. In the details pane, set Enabled to True, and then set URL to http://ProxyServer:Port.
4. ProxyServer is the name of the proxy server that you want Team Foundation Build Service to use, and Port is the number of the port on which the proxy server is listening for requests. (By default, this number is 8081.)
5. On the File menu, click Exit to close Registry Editor.

Monitor server health and performance
• Focus on what’s possible rather than the deep technical details– Learn the basics for Splitting a TPC rather than the set of steps or
commands
• Understand the command line tools that are related to TFS administration– TfsConfig.exe– Tf.exe – selected commands (workspaces, workspace, status, shelve,
shelvesets, undo, etc)
• Realize that the tools you really use to manage performance and health of TFS aren’t on the exam– You have to study other approaches that are infrequently, if ever,
used in real life
