Managing Data Deduplication

Deduplication benefits High Optimization Savings State of the art chunking and compression Typical savings by workload: Transparent to Primary Server Workload Minimal IO impact through scheduled and selective optimization Minimal Server impact through low resource use Reliability and Data Integrity Built-in insurance against natural risk of data reduction Data Integrity validation on all data and metadata Redundancy for metadata and popular chunks Storage AND Network Optimization Integration with BranchCache for faster file download times and reduced bandwidth consumption over WAN

Target Workloads Windows Server Build lab: 82% savings VHD Library Software Deployment File shares Home Folder (MyDocs) Windows Server Build lab: 82% savings MSIT Install Servers 67% savings MSIT File shares: 64% savings MSIT Intellimirror: 20-35% savings

System overview Management Management Operations Branch Office Server Manager PowerShell WMI Windows Server Windows volumes …… Transparent access to files Local/SMB/NFS Config Status Management Operations D:\ E:\ Optimized file download SMB/HTTP F:\ Branch Office Deduplication scope is a Volume Cluster-aware: BranchCache enabled

In Review: Session Objectives and Takeaways Summarize how to manage a Windows Server“8” File Server. Demonstrate the benefits of remote multi machine management. Use PowerShell to automate common File Server management tasks Key Takeaways: The Windows Server “8” File Server has an ‘appliance like’ & Unified multi-machine management experience Integrated Storage management is available for all Windows Servers File Server PowerShell support enables robust automation

Easy to find what needs to be managed Use filters to search & find Sort & group lists

Scenario: User calls in “I can’t save my file to the ‘sales’ drive” Today – Component based management Fine the server to Manage Manage server resource: Is this a disk space issue? Manage server resource: Has quota been exceeded? Manage server resource: Security permissions Identify server Name ? Find volume hosting the share Find Quota for folder hosting the share Share & Storage manager Check Share/Folder/File Act’s Share & Storage manager Share and Storage Manager Find share Find share (Srv Mgr) Find share (Srv Mgr) Is Server a Cluster? Quota Manager View share properties View share properties (Folder) View share properties (Sec) Clyster Manager Server Manager ACL & Explorer NO YES View volume free space Browse to file/folder (Explorer) View status in quota manager Connect to server with SrvMgr Connect to cluster with Cluster Mgr. HW- Thin Provisioned? Check file permissions External tool YES View physical space – 3rd party Mgt tool Result - finding & switching between multiple UI’s & Servers
