Module 4: Protecting your data

1. Windows Server 2012 R2 Storage JumpStart: New Choices Module 4: Protecting your data Prabu Rambadran Sr. Product Manager, Server Infrastructure Rick Claus Sr. Technical Evangelist

2. PROTECTING YOUR DATA Protecting your data Makes applications resilient to underlying hardware failures. Provides low-cost, high availability solutions on cost-effective hardware. • Windows Azure backup. Data protection manager. Supports continuous availability across storage, networking, and Hyper-V. Protects data across the stacks File system enhancements. Hyper-V replica and Hyper-V recovery manager. StorSimple.

4. PROTECTING YOUR DATA Protecting files and directories: File system enhancements NTFS improvements • Rapid recovery from file system corruption without affecting availability • Data corruption virtually eliminated through allocate-on-write • Period checksum validation of file system meta-data • Seamless data integrity protection Resilient File System (ReFS) CHKDSK • Seconds to fix corrupted data. • No offline time when used with CSV. • Disk scanning process separated from repair process. • Online scanning with volume and offline repair. • Rapid recovery from file system corruption without affecting availability. • Resilient against power outage corruption. • Periodic checksum validation of file system metadata. • Improved data integrity protection. • ReFS remains online during subdirectory reconstruction and knows where orphaned subdirectories exist andautomatically reconstructs them. • Ideal for file server volumes.

5. PROTECTING YOUR DATA Disk resiliency with storage spaces Simple • Data is striped across disks. Mirror • Data mirrored to a duplicate disk. • Two and three-way mirroring. • Mirrored configuration with clustering for workloads. Parity • Data striped to all-but one of the disks. The remaining disk contains a checksum bit enabling data to be generated for a failed disk. • Parity with clustering for archives.

6. PROTECTING YOUR DATA Continuous backup and protection for Microsoft workloads System Center Operations manager Active DirectoryHyper-VFile services Disk-based recovery Windows Azure backup Up to every 15 minutes System Center Data protection manager Data protection manager disaster recovery (with offsite replication and tape) Windows client Tape-based backup

7. PROTECTING YOUR DATA Protecting your workloads System Center Data Protection Manager 2012 R2 Optimized Centralized Enterprise-ready • Optimized for Microsoft applications. • Quick item-level recovery for SharePoint and Hyper-V. • Supports Windows applications that use VSS writer. • Customizable XML files for other applications. • Unified disk, tape, and cloud data recovery. • Protection of clustered workloads. • Integration with WS 2012 technologies. • SLA-based alerting. • UNIX/Linux support. • Certificate-based protection. • PowerShell support. • Centralized monitoring and troubleshooting with OM. • Remote administration. • Role-based access. • Consolidated and categorized alerts. • Integration with other SC components

8. PROTECTING YOUR DATA Hyper‑V Replica Replicate Hyper‑V VMs from a Primary to a Replica site • Affordable in-box business continuity and disaster recovery • Configurable replication frequencies of 30 seconds, 5 minutes and 15 minutes • Secure replication across network • Agnostic of hardware on either site • No need for other virtual machine replication technologies • Automatic handling of live migration • Simpler configuration and management Upon site failure, VMs can be started on secondary site Once Hyper-V Replica is enabled, VMs begin replication Once replicated, changes replicated on chosen frequency Primary Site Secondary Site Initial Replica Replicated Changes CSV onBlockStorage SMB ShareFile BasedStorage

9. PROTECTING YOUR DATA Hyper-V Replica | Extended Replication Replicate to 3rd Location for Extra Level of Resiliency Replication can be enabled on the 1st replica to a 3rd site Replication configured from primary to secondary • Once a VM has been successfully replicated to the replica site, replicacan be replicated to a 3rd location • Chained Replication • Extended Replica contents match the original replication contents • Extended Replica replication frequencies can differ from original replica • Useful for scenarios such as SMB -> Service Provider -> Service Provider DR Site DR Site Replication DASStorage

10. PROTECTING YOUR DATA Hyper-V Recovery Manager Orchestrate protection and recovery of private clouds • Protect important services bycoordinating replication and recovery of VMM-managed private clouds • Automates replication of VMs within clouds between sites • Hyper-V Replica provides replication, orchestrated by Hyper-V Recovery Manager • Can be used for planned, unplanned and testing failover between sites • Integrate with scripts for customization of recovery plans Windows AzureHyper-V Recovery Manager Communication channel Communication channel LOB cloud/Dev-test LOB cloud/Dev-test Failover System Center 2012 R2 System Center 2012 R2 Hyper-V Hosts Hyper-V Hosts Replication Channel Datacenter 1 Datacenter 2
