1 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS March 2 nd, 2000 Frédéric Hemmer - IT Division

2 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 20002 Outline Windows 2000 features Changes and impact Roadmap

3 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 20003 Current status July’s Proposal –Develop Desktop independently of Server –Prototype Server features But … –Initial tests with Windows 2000 Professional showed more problems than solutions when used in a NT 4 infrastructure –MS release date delayed … –Windows 2000 prototype well under way  Decided to concentrate on Windows 2000 Workstation + Server together

4 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 20004 Windows 2000 Key Features Active Directory Kerberos V5 Server Management Offline folders DFS Windows Installer SMS

5 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 20005 Dual Pentium III 500 MHz 512 MB Memory ECC RAID 5 with RaidPort 0 Hot swappable data disk drives Intel Server Management Adaptec Array Management < 100 CHF/GB (03/2000) Allows for “private” servers Server Platform

6 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 20006 Offline folders Files are cached locally My Documents folder (home directory) automatically redirected Portables use cache while offline Local cache hides network or server problems Connection to open programs/documents is preserved Files can be synchronized when network becomes available again

7 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 20007 NTFS V5 Log based Dynamic volumes –Software mirroring, RAID 5, striping, etc. Quotas –Per volume basis Compression –But hardly needed these days Encryption (EFS) –Possibility for an administrator to access encrypted files Many more features –Streams, sparse files, reparse points, hard links, etc. Performance –5 streams RAID 0 : 114 MB/s Read; 55 MB/s Write

8 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 20008 NTFS on PDP’s IDE Disk Server

9 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 20009 Dfs key features Uniform hierarchical logical namespace –No server names anymore Drive letters not needed anymore Allows for new alphabetic structure together with departmental grouping \\win\dfs\Users\h\hemmer Resilience achievable when integrated with AD and using fault tolerant volumes (replicas) On top of NTFS Clients for 95/NT exist (migration)

10 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 200010 Access to Home Directories

11 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 200011 Application & Desktop Management Use of standard tools –Systems management Server Inventory Software deployment Remote diagnostics & support –Windows Installer The new standard for installing local applications Required for the Windows logo Large apps. availability being checked Conversion tools appearing –Server Management DMI based tools (Intel, Adaptec) Windows Terminal Services Active Directory WSH + VBS

12 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 200012 Summary of Benefits Single Windows platform for CERN –Easier management using standard tools Local applications –Faster to launch, resilient to network/server failures, standard install Offline folders –Looks local but is remote, resilient to network/server failures Plug & Play –Auto detects new hardware Large Disks Uniform file system name space Delegation easier (AD, Dfs, Server Management)

13 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 200013 Changes for the user New Windows desktop (active desktop) My Documents Folder Home directories \\win\dfs\Users\h\hemmer No Server names \\win\dfs\Projects\… No Drive letters needed anymore (J:,G:,Z:) Shortcuts & embedded references will need to be fixed

14 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 200014 Impact on Hardware Minimal recommended configuration –Pentium 133, 64 MB RAM, 2 GB Disk with 650 MB free Power user may need more –Standard CERN new PC today : Pentium III 600 MHz, 128 MB, 8.7 GB Disk (2100 CHF) ISA Ethernet card not supported Some machines will need replacement

15 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 200015 Under configured hardware

16 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 200016 Schedule Prototype Windows 2000 Pilot JanFebMarAprMayJunJulAugSep Proof of concepts Address scalability & Performance Applications availability with MSI Migration scenarios NICE 2000 Coexistence & Migration plan Checkpoint

17 CERN - European Organization for Nuclear Research FOCUS - March 2, 200017 Summary & plan Windows 2000 Pilot starts now Introduce Windows 2000 by the summer Some hardware may need change Applications availability being checked Decide NICE95/NT Freeze date by the end of the year
