Windows Server 2008 : Disaster Scenario Troubleshooting |
When an organization is faced with a network outage, the impact can affect a small set of users, an entire office, or the entire company. When a network outage occurs, the network administrators should perform the following tasks: |

Windows Server 2008 : Ongoing Backup and Recovery Preparedness |
Creating and documenting processes that detail how to properly back up and recover from a disaster is an essential step in a disaster recovery project. Equally important as creating these processes is periodically reviewing, validating, and updating the processes. |

Windows Server 2003 : Restoring Active Directory |
In the same way that System State components can be backed up only as a single logical group, individual components of the System State cannot be restored individually. As such, an administrator cannot choose to restore Active Directory without also restoring the registry, COM+ Class Registration database, system boot files, and so forth. |

Windows Server 2003 : Managing Schema Modifications |
In Active Directory environments, the schema is the storage location for the definitions of all objects that can be created in the directory. All objects stored in Active Directory are associated with object classes and attributes. |

|
Windows Server 2008 : Create Active Directory Objects |
The creation of objects (computer, contact, group, OU, printer user, and so on) can all be handled with the tool Active Directory Users and Computers. To open this tool, you select Start, Administrative Tools, Active Directory Users and Computers. You then see a hierarchy of items under your domain.

|
Windows Server 2008 : Promote Servers as Domain Controllers |
An Active Directory domain begins with the installation of a single DC. To ensure that the first controller will work, however, you might need to make decisions about your DNS infrastructure. If you have one already, you need to ensure that it is ready for Active Directory. If you do not have one, you may choose to install DNS when you install your first DC.

Windows Server 2008 : Configure Group Policy Application Settings |
It’s true that creating and applying a policy can be relatively easy to do. However, over time there have developed ways of manipulating policies to alter the way they apply, to change the order in which they apply, and even to remove all or part of their application.

|
Windows Server 2008 : Create and Apply Group Policies |
First of all, you need to be more than a creator of Group Policy. You also need to be a designer, or an architect. To accomplish this, you have to spend some time clicking through the different policy settings so you know what exists.
|
|
Windows Server 2008 : Use Starter GPOs |
Windows Server 2008 has a new feature called Starter GPOs. These provide a starting point for administrators to create policies on aspects of the system configuration that are typically necessary.
|
|
Windows Server 2008 : Grasp the Structure of Group Policy |
Trying to focus on the thousands of settings will certainly hurt your mind a bit. Over time, you will remember settings or keep a log of which ones you feel are required, but to begin with, you should start with small, easy-to-grasp settings so you can see immediately if and how your policies are being applied. Before you begin, however, it is a good idea to gain a full understanding of what Group Policy settings do and how they work.

Troubleshoot Windows Server 2008 |
Once you have monitored your server and located a problem area, you need to troubleshoot that problem. Windows Server 2008 provides some built-in tools to help you troubleshoot events that take place in your environment. We will look at two specific methods that can be used to assist in troubleshooting Windows Server 2008: the Event Viewer, which many administrators are familiar with already, and several command-line tools that can perform specific troubleshooting tasks.
