15 Windows Recovery Environment A new recovery environment built into Windows Server 2008 and based on Windows PE 2.0 A complete diagnostic and recovery solution A platform for building your own recovery solutions Network Infrastructure Configuration 15

16 Windows Recovery Environment (continued) Activity 2-3: Launching Windows PE as a Recovery Tool Time Required: 5 minutes Objective: Start Windows PE and allow it to access your server s file system Network Infrastructure Configuration 16

17 Sysprep Prepares an installation of Windows for imaging and deployment by Modifying a system to create a new SID and other unique information the next time it starts Removes user and computer-specific information that should not be transferred to new images Generalization Removing unique characteristics of an installation before creating an image Network Infrastructure Configuration 17

18 Sysprep (continued) Out-of-Box Experience Removes all the SIDs, unique characteristics, and applications from an operating system Audit Mode Allows you to apply additional application and driver modifications to a specific image Network Infrastructure Configuration 18

19 Preparing to Install Windows Server Installation types 2008 Clean (migrate) installation Upgrade installation Attended installations Require your input during installation Unattended installation Uses answer files and scripts for automation and does not require you to be present Network Infrastructure Configuration 19

20 Network Infrastructure Configuration 20

21 Preparing to Install Windows Server 2008 (continued) Clean/Migrate Installations Requires a complete installation of the operating system onto a new or reformatted disk drive Upgrade installations Allow you to install Windows Server 2008 over an existing installation of Windows Server 2003 Network Infrastructure Configuration 21

22 Network Infrastructure Configuration 22

23 Installing Windows Server 2008 with Server Core CD/DVD/USB Boot Installation Adequate choice if you are installing a small number of systems in a single location Network Distribution Share Installation Installed from a drive location (a network share) Image-based installations Require you to create a customized image that is applied to each computer you are deploying Network Infrastructure Configuration 23

24 Network Infrastructure Configuration 24

25 Imaging Options with ImageX With ImageX, you can perform the following imaging tasks Capture an image Append an image Modify an image Apply an image Network Infrastructure Configuration 25

33 Product Activation and Licensing in Product activation Windows Server 2008 Validates licensed software products Multiple Activation Keys (MAKs) Provides a key to activate individual computers or a group of computers within your environment Key Management Services (KMS) Internal service for activating all computers in an enterprise network without requiring the computers to contact Microsoft Network Infrastructure Configuration 33

34 Product Activation and Licensing in Windows Server 2008 (continued) Product key group Collection of products used to identify the type of MAK or KMS key required to install specific operating system editions License Provides the right to install an instance of an operating system Server Licensing Gives you the right to install an instance of Windows Server 2008 you purchased on a single physical computer Network Infrastructure Configuration 34

35 Network Infrastructure Configuration 35

36 Product Activation and Licensing in Windows Server 2008 (continued) Client access license (CAL) License that grants to a user or computer device the right to access the server Device-based CALs License of choice in situations where many users access resources from a few client computers User-based CALs Allow one user to access server resources from unknown or multiple devices Network Infrastructure Configuration 36

37 Introduction to Windows Server 2008 Basics of Server Core Server Core Available in Standard, Enterprise, and Datacenter editions Can be installed at initial setup or as an upgrade from a Full version of Windows Server 2003 or 2008 Appropriate for deploying roles that require little or no regular administration Provides an inherently more secure installation of Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure Configuration 37
