  7. Some of the New Administration features of Windows Server 2012

  8. Active Directory Administrative Center, is a task-oriented tool based on Windows PowerShell

  9. Password Settings Objects • You can use fine-grained password policies to specify multiple password policies within a single domain • Fine-grained password policies: • Apply only to user objects (or inetOrgPerson objects) and global security groups • Cannot be applied to an OU directly • Do not interfere with custom password filters that you might use in the same domain

  10. Configuring Password Settings Objects Windows Server 2012 provides two tools for configuring PSOs • Windows PowerShell cmdlets • New-ADFineGrainedPasswordPolicy • Add-FineGrainedPasswordPolicySubject • Active Directory Administrative Center • Is a graphical user interface • Uses Windows PowerShellcmdlets to create and manage PSOs

  11. Managed Service Account • Use to automate password and SPN management for service accounts used by services and applications • Requiresa Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows Server 2012 server installed with: • .NET Framework 3.5.x • Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell • Recommended to run with AD DS configured at theWindows Server 2008 R2 functional level or higher • Can be used in a Windows Server 2003 or 2008 AD DS environment: • With Windows Server 2008 R2 schema updates • With Active Directory Management Gateway Service

  12. Group Managed Service Accounts Group managed service accounts extend the capability of standard managed service accounts by: • Enabling an MSA to be used on more than one computer in the domain • Storing MSA authentication information on domain controllers Group MSA requirements: • Must have at least one Windows Server 2012 domain controller • Must have a KDS root key created for the domain

  13. The Central Store The Central Store: • Is a central repository for ADMX and ADML files • Is stored in SYSVOL • Must be created manually • Is detected automatically by Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 ADMX files Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008workstation Domain controller with SYSVOL Domain controller with SYSVOL

  14. Group Policy Preferences Group Policy preferences expand the range of configurable settings within a GPO Group Policy preferences: • Enable IT professionals to configure, deploy, and manage settings that were not manageable by using Group Policy • Are natively supported on Windows Server 2008 and Vista SP2 or newer • Can be created, deleted, replaced, or updated

  15. Comparing Group Policy Preferences and GPO Settings

  16. Group policy Management Editor • Allows editing of the ADMX file • Extends the functionality of GPMC

  17. Features of Group Policy Preferences Targeting Features Common Tab Is used to configure additional options that control the behavior of a Group Policy preference item Determines to which users and computers a preference item applies

  18. Deploying a Cloned Virtualized Domain Controller You can safely clone an existing virtual domain controller by: • Creating a DcCloneConfig.xml file and storing it in theAD DS database location • Taking the VDC offline and exporting it • Creating a new virtual machine by importing the exported VDC DcCloneConfig.xml to AD DS database location Import the VDC Export the VDC

  19. Overview of the Active Directory Module for Windows PowerShell The Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell provides full administrative functionality in these areas: • User management • Computer management • Group management • OU management • Password policy management • Searching and modifying objects • Forest and domain management • Domain controller and operations masters management • Managed service account management • Site replication management • Central access and claims management

  20. Windows PowerShell Web Access • Allows remote management of computers by running Windows PowerShell sessions in a web browser. • Powershell replaces tab completion with Visual Studio style drop down options • Many former scripts are now compiled into cmdlets

  22. What Is NTDSUtil? With NTDSUtil you can: • Manage and control single master operations • Perform AD DS database maintenance • Perform offline defragmentation • Create and mount snapshots • Move database files • Maintain domain controller metadata • Reset Directory Services Restore Mode password

  23. Creating AD DS Snapshots • Create a snapshot of Active Directory • NTDSUtil • Mount the snapshot to a unique port • NTDSUtil • Expose the snapshot • Right-click the root node of Active Directory Users and Computers, and choose Connect to Domain Controller • Enter serverFQDN:port • View (read-only) snapshot • Cannot directly restore data from the snapshot • Recover data • Connect to the mounted snapshot, and export/reimport objects with LDIFDE • Restore a backup from the same date as the snapshot • Manually reenter data www.netcomlearning.com

  34. Implementing IPAM • What Is IPAM? IPAM Architecture Requirements for IPAM Implementation Managing IP Addressing Using IPAM IPAM Management and Monitoring Considerations for Implementing IPAM

  35. What Is IPAM? • IPAM facilitates IP management in organizations with complex networks by enabling administration and monitoring of DHCP and DNS

  36. Managing IP Addressing Using IPAM • You can view and manage the IP address space using the following views: • IP address blocks • IP address ranges • IP addresses • IP inventory • IP address range groups • You can monitor the IP address space using the following views: • DNS and DHCP servers • DHCP scopes • DNS zone monitoring • Server groups

  37. IPAM Management and Monitoring With IPAM, you can: • Monitor IP address space utilization • Monitor DNS and DHCP health • Configure many DHCP properties and values from the IPAM console • Use the event catalog to view a centralized repository for all configuration changes

  38. What Is iSCSI? • iSCSI transmits SCSI commands over IP networks iSCSI client that runs the iSCSI Initiator TCP/IP protocol Storage Array iSCSI Target Server

  39. iSCSI Target Server and iSCSI Initiator

  40. Considerations for Implementing iSCSI Storage • Consider the following when designing your iSCSI storage solution: • Deploy the solution on fast networks • Design a highly available network infrastructure for your iSCSI storage solution. • Design an appropriate security strategy for the iSCSI storage solution • Follow the vendor-specific best practices for different types of deployments • The iSCSI storage solution team must contain IT administrators from different areas of specialization • Design application-specific iSCSI storage solutions together with application specific administrators, such as Exchange Server and SQL Server administrators
