  • Avid Interplay Production Failover Cluster Host Network Driver Update Procedure
    Avid Interplay Production Failover Cluster Host Network Driver Update Procedure Overview: The act of applying network interface driver updates may introduce an error into the settings for the network adapters. To execute the driver updates it has been found that if the host node has the cluster service stopped before hand, the updates can be applied with no negative affects to the system. Microsoft has several server backup references and as always, having a proper backup will mitigate any pain should “a bad thing happen”. References: Backup and Recovery Overview for Windows Server 2008 R2 https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd979562(v=ws.10).aspx You can create a backup using the Backup Schedule Wizard to enable backups to be run on a regular schedule or using the Backup Once Wizard to run a one-time backup. You can access both of these wizards from the Windows Server Backup Microsoft Management Console (MMC) snap-in. You can also create regular or one-time backups using the Wbadmin command or Windows PowerShell cmdlets for Windows Server Backup. Here are the articles below about the basic steps, you could take a look. https://technet.microsoft.com/en-sg/library/cc753528.aspx Windows Server 2012R2 - Backup http://www.c-sharpcorner.com/UploadFile/cd7c2e/how-to-create-backup-in-windows-server-2012/ http://krypted.com/windows-server/use-windows-backup-to-back-up-windows-server-2012/ Page | 1 Network Driver Update Steps: The updates will require a fail at some point so please the times and actions to be when a fail over of the Avid Workgroup server service will have a minimal production impact.

  • RDX Native Backup Wbadmin Windows Server 2012 with Multiple Cartridges
    RDX Native Backup WBAdmin Windows Server 2012 with multiple cartridges CASE: Enable Windows Native Backup on WS2012 to use multiple rdx cartridges (backup disk volumes) from a single RDX device setup in “Fixed mode” Tech links: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc732939(d=printer).aspx http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/a453ced0-3772-4665- 9c5d-94fd410c4940/unable-to-add-usb-drives-for-backups-server-2012 Short description: To be able to add / preformat several RDX cartridges for use by Windows Native Backup, one must use the command-line tool “wbadmin” from an elevated command prompt. When doing this, the user will encounter a known bug in WS2012 that aborts the disk addon procedure with a message telling that the specified filepath is invalid/not found. A Bugfix can be found here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2833738 After running this bugfix, the procedure below works as expected. In the example below, we have first added a backup job using the Windows Server 2012 Std. Backup Wizard GUI. The target disk (backup volume) is a RDX cartridge inserted into a RDX dock set to “Fixed” mode. Then we added another cartridge to the list of available backup volumes using “wbadmin”. To prepare another cartridge to be used do the following 1. Eject the rdx cartridge that was initially added for the backup job. 2. Insert the next cartridge to be used for the set of backup disks 3. Use “ wbadmin get disks” to get the Disk Identifier for the new cartridge (disk) See example 1 below 4.

You must also be able to maintain the environment to provide minimum downtime and optimum performance of your enterprise. Various solutions and strategies come into play as part of maintenance. Some can be seen as larger “disaster recovery” components, whereas others may simply be “tweaking” the environment to improve user experience. In some situations, “maintenance” may fall somewhere in between—a user account is accidentally deleted, a file is accidentally deleted, or replication is under- performing or not performing at all! In this chapter, you will learn about the many maintenance and management tools offered as a part of Windows Server 2008, as well as some solutions to better improve your Windows Active Directory environment. These topics will be critical not only to your exam success, but also to your success as an IT professional. We will begin this section with a discussion of Windows Server Backup and how it has changed drastically from earlier versions of the Windows server product. Backup and Recovery Most people never think about backup and recovery until they need it. Microsoft has been shipping a simple backup solution with Windows since Windows NT 3.1 back in 1993.

  • Integrating RDX® Quikstor™ Into Windows® Backup with Full System Recovery for Windows Server OS
    INTEGRATION BRIEF Integrating RDX® QuikStor™ into Windows® Backup with Full System Recovery for Windows Server OS The built-in Windows Backup included with current Windows operating systems does not support removable media. In order to back up the system or user data with removable storage products and Windows Backup, a user must backup to a xed local disk or incorporate third-party backup software that recognizes the removable storage device. RDX® QuikStor™ has solved this problem by providing a fixed disk mode that allows RDX removable storage to be used with Windows Backup. This guide shows step-by-step instructions on a Windows Server 2012 R2 environment how to: • create a bootable RDX QuikStor media including a system recovery image • set up a backup job including media rotation for full disaster protection • set up deduplication on server volumes to safe disk and backup space • recover from a system crash using RDX QuikStor recovery media tandbergdata.com overlandstorage.com Confi gure RDX QuikStor in fi xed disk mode Use the RDX utility software (version 1.54 or later) to configure RDX QuikStor in fixed disk mode. The software is available on the RDX QuikStor download section of the Tandberg Data website. In addition, the latest firmware should be downloaded and installed.(2.27 or later). Start the RDX Utility and select (click) the drive to work with. Then click on Diagnostic to work with the drive. If there is RDX Media (Cartridge) in the Drive eject it. Select the Utility tab. To use RDX with Windows Backup Click on Change Device Mode and follow the dialog to Confi gure RDX in Fixed disk mode.

It is time for you to shine as the hero for your data and bring it back! One of the most important tasks you need to perform as an admin- istrator is backing up your server. Performing regular backups on your server is a necessity to help protect you from any number of potential problems. Backups can save you time and money, and, more important, they allow you to sleep well at night. If you have performed proper backups and are proficient in the proper procedures to restore your data, you can quickly identify the proper backup media to begin recov- ering the data.
