Mastering Windows Server 2022 with Azure Cloud Services: IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS (Series Monographs in Applied Toxicology)

Product Information

In fact, there is some cool news about just how far you can go with assigning resources in this new version. You would leave the production server running, spin up a new one in parallel, configure all of the roles and specs needed on that server, then plan an after-hours migration of data and apps to the new server so that the next morning, hopefully, everything was up and working on the new server. No need to install a management tool or application onto your workstation—simply sit down and tap into it with a URL. And, as long as you have proper network topology and routing in place, you can work on a server halfway around the world just as quickly as one sitting in the cubicle next to you.

In the future, this may well change with trends and development in technology, but please note that our PDFs are not Adobe eBook Reader format, which has greater restrictions on security.The minimum storage space requirement is 32 GB, but Desktop Experience consumes about 4 GB more space than Server Core, so take that into consideration. If you wanted to clone your master server, you could simply use a hard disk imaging tool, or if you were dealing with virtual machines, you could simply copy and paste the .

Install the operating system and make sure device drivers are all squared away and you’re ready for the next step. I will make use of /generalize so that I make my new servers unique, and I also like to use /oobe so that the mini-setup wizard launches during the first boot of Windows on any of my new systems. Logging in to WAC is great but not very useful until you add a bunch of machines that you want to manage. Things such as UEFI and a TPM chip are quickly becoming mainstream and used by more and more services with every operating system update. So, anyway, we will not focus on an automated approach to server rollouts, but rather we will do a few minutes of extra work on our very first server, which then results in saving numerous minutes of setup work on every server that we build afterward.In Mastering Windows Server 2022 with Azure Cloud Services: IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS, 5-time Microsoft MVP Winner William Panek delivers a comprehensive and practical blueprint for planning, implementing, and managing environments that include Azure IaaS-hosted Windows Server-based workloads.

Now that you have seen the graphical wizards for installing roles and features, you could certainly always use them to put these components into place on your servers. In particular, if you are interested in security and protection via BitLocker or working with strong certificates, you will want to make sure that your systems include TPM 2. ISO is still packaged up and not bootable in any way, so the disc would be worthless to your new piece of server hardware.

Selecting either link will bring you into our wizard for installation of the roles, as shown in Figure 2. This process would soon start to get tedious, and it would seem like you were wasting a lot of time having to do the exact same thing over and over again.

Then, quite a number of years ago, this became cumbersome and technology advanced to the point where we had the Remote Desktop Protocol ( RDP) available to us. For so many years, it was normal that in-place Windows Server upgrades were almost guaranteed to tank your server, causing it to be useless in the end. Thankfully, the Sysinternals team at Microsoft grabbed it, fixed it up, and resurrected it for continued use. Anyone interested in being a Windows Server administrator needs to be comfortable with installing and managing their servers, and covering those topics establishes an important baseline for moving forward. Without a doubt, the most common place that roles and features get installed is right inside the graphical wizards available as soon as your operating system has been installed.

What you will learn Build a Windows Server from the ground up and implement your own PKI Manage your servers with Server Manager, PowerShell, and Windows Admin Center Secure your network and data with modern technologies in Windows Server 2022 Understand containers and where Nano Server fits into the equation Discover new ways to integrate your datacenter with Microsoft Azure Virtualize your datacenter with Hyper-V Round out your understanding of Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, and Group Policy Deploy Remote Desktop Services in your environment Who this book is for Anyone interested in Windows Server administration will benefit from this book. Therefore, when installing newer, larger operating systems, it is becoming commonplace to prep a USB stick to use for the installation of the operating system rather than relying on a DVD.
