Lesson 2: Configuring Shadow Copies

What Are Shadow Copies?

Shadow Copy Scheduling

Demonstration: Configuring Shadow Copies

Managing Shadow Copies from a Client Perspective

Restoring Shadow Copies Demonstration: Restoring Shadow Copies


15/33

What Are Shadow Copies?

Shadow copies provide iterative versions of network folders

Use shadow copies to:

Recover files

Review previous versions Shadow copies are:

Enabled per volume

Not a replacement for regular backups

Allocated storage limits versions


16/33

Shadow Copy Scheduling

Default schedule is7:00 A.M. and noon

Create a shadow copyschedule based on:

Volume of changes

Importance of changes

Storage limitations

Test a schedule with asmall group


17/33

Demonstration: Configuring Shadow Copies

In this demonstration, you will see how to configureshadow copies


18/33

Managing Shadow Copies from a Client Perspective

Shadow copies from the client perspective:

Windows XP and Windows 2000 Client computersmust have the Previous Versions client installed

Clients must use the share path to an object

to show the Previous Versions tab Shadows Copies do not replace regular backups

What Is a Failover Cluster?

A failover clusteris a group of independent computers that worktogether to increase the availability of applications and servicesA failover clusteris a group of independent computers that worktogether to increase the availability of applications and services

Failover clusters include:

A new validation feature to ensure that the system, storage, andnetwork configuration is suitable for a cluster

Improved cluster setup

Simplified configuration interface

Improved stability and security, which increases availability

Improved cluster communication with storage, which improvesthe performance of a SAN or DAS

Configuration options that eliminate the need for the quorumas a single point of failure

Improvements to the software infrastructure, networking andsecurity, which increase reliability and availability
