...For the 5 workstations at the main office I would like to run Windows 7 Enterprise. Enterprise would not be as cost effective as some of the other options but being that this is the main office and the server is onsite it would be a more secure. Commercial servers, workstations, and other high-end PCs may have more than one physical processor. Windows 7 Enterprise allows for two physical processors, providing the best performance on these computers. Windows 7 Starter, Home Basic, and Home Premium will recognize only one physical processor. This should also speed up the sluggish issue between the computers at the warehouse when trying to access the server files. Also windows 7 ultimate works well with Microsoft office products and other business related programs. For the 3 workstations at the warehouse I would use Windows 7 Professional. . Windows 7 Professional has some good features that work well with business. Windows 7 Professional allows for backup and restore on networks in addition to having file system encryption through EFS. Not to mention the easy connect feature that Windows 7 Professional has, your help-desk, with your permission, can remotely connect to your windows 7 pc to fix Home Group problems. Windows 7 Professional is also has location aware printing that can automatically switch your laptop from your home printer to the office for those employees that travel between the Main office and the Warehouse.

...Week 1 Analysis 1 08/09/2014 Selecting a Windows 7 Edition NT1230 Client-Server Networking Michael N Nguyen Dr.Baker For this small business we have a total of 8 computers and a single server. With 3 workstations at the warehouse and 5 at the main office with the server. All the workstations having a 1 gigabyte memory, 1.8 gigahertz processor, that support Direct 9 and Window Display Driver Model (WDDM). I would recommend that the 3 workstations at the warehouse to be installed Window 7 Home Premium. With the 32 bit is only required, because of the limited memory and processor. The reason is that with these workstations being sluggishly. It should only access and transfer files. Only for basic usage and just a simple way to be connected to the server. For the 5 workstations at the main office. I would have install Window 7 Professional. As they are faster and closer to the main server. With more options to play with other programs and applications. These workstations would be the power house and where the higher ups can control. With more admin control and its should be well secure at the main office. With new computers and technology is growing, updating is always the recommended. So preforming clean installation and upgrading Window 7 would help the performances and productivity. With higher memory and processor each of the workstations can be fully updated to Window 7 Enterprise. With this it would have all access to programs and better network...

...Selecting a Windows 7 Edition As a computer consultant working with a new client I would 1st want to look at the hardware and the specs of the workstations and server in particular. In this scenario we have 8 workstations, 3 in a Warehouse across town and 5 in the office with the Server running Windows Server 2003. Choosing the proper version of windows upgrading them properly will solve some of the client’s slow connectivity problems without losing any data in the process. Each workstation has a 1GB of Memory and 1.8GHz Processor, which means that we must choose a 32-bit version of Windows based on the system requirements alone. These workstations do not have enough system memory in order to run the 64- bit version. While there are 6 different versions of Window 7, Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Enterprise would be the best choice for my clients in this case. The 5 Workstations that are housed at the main office mainly run office programs and don’t take on a lot of the heavy lifting but having a few extra features like AD DS Domain support, offline files, encryption and network based backups can make things easier to organize and keep secure. The utilization of Offline Files will really take a lot of load off the server by allowing the users to save their work directly on the workstations allowing access to those files when the server is down or to just reduce traffic when it’s being used most. The Encryption features and AD DS Domain support allow users to...

First the UAC will be enabled, which will require the administrators’ password in order for changes to be made on the network, improving security. Each server will have their date and time input properly, as well as their names changed according to the services they will provide, this will make each server easily recognizable on the network, the first server will be providing email service and will be named EmailData, the second server will be providing access to files and printing and will be named FileData, the third server will be providing payroll and scheduling service and will be named SchedulingData. All three servers will have to access the Control Panel to have network connection settings accessed in order to automatically obtain an IP address, also in the Control panel window each server will join Domain “Acme”. Utilizing Driver update, all three servers will perform a driver update to ensure all recent versions are installed, as well as checking to ensure that no generic names are seen.

Brockman NT1230 Client Server Networking Friday, February 10, 2012 The hardware side should be set up with raided hard disks preferable in as a raid 6. There should be at least two NICs for each server to ensure that connectivity is not lost. IT recommends that we have at least three hours of a backup power available. In order to cut costs IT would like to if more then one server is required to set up virtual servers. The server roles that we network administration recommends would include, active directory services for security to ensure that they only authorized persons are accessing the system and to help to make sure that if necessary encrypt the information so that if the system is breached the information stays secure. An active directory domain services so that IT can manage the system better. This would include user profiles and is a required to add other services that will be needed as well. An active directory domain rights service is recommend to help ensure that only the users that need certain information have access to it. This also enables us to limit what some users can do with the information such as look or modify the information in a file. An application server, so that all employees will have access to needed programs to get their jobs done. A dynamic host control protocol and a domain name server are recommended...

Submit your answers in a Word Document and cite any resources in A.P.A format | 1.What does R.A.I.D stand for? R.A.I.D stands for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks 2.When would we use RAID? We would use RAID in file server and data storage where access speed with a minimal lost of data and reliability is crucial for example a web store 3.Define the following types of RAID: a. RAID0 Disk Striping offering no redundancy and is written across multiple drives increasing drive performance b. RAID1 duplicates entire contents of drive1 on a second drive so if the primary drive fails there’s a backup of the primary on a secondary disk minimizing downtime of drive c. RAID5 Spreads data across multiple drives evenly giving server or website higher drive data reliability and higher drive storage capacity d.RAID6 RAID 6, also known as double-parity RAID, uses two parity stripes on each disk. It allows for two disk failures within the RAID set before any data is lost. 4.Why is RAID0 of any use if it doesn’t offer any redundancy ? RAID0 is usedwhere drive performance is more important that security of data for example a gaming computer. 5 Why do u think RAID1 can be the most expensive? Why would people utilize it if so costly?

...NT1230 Client Server Networking 1 1 Originally RAID stood for Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks and is now commonly referred to as (Redundant Array of Independent Disks), is a data storage virtualization technology that combines multiple disks for the purpose of data redundancy. 2 We use raid when data accessibility and performance is critical. 3 the Levels of Raid A RAID 0: Consists of striping without mirroring or parity -- A RAID 0 setup splits data evenly across two or more disks, it is important to note that RAID 0 has no added redundancy for handling disk failures the same as with a spanned volume. B RAID 1: Consists of data mirroring but without parity or striping. -- With a Raid 1 setup, it creates an exact copy (or mirror) of data on two or more disks. If one of the drives goes down your array will still be functional until the effected drive can be fixed or replaced. C RSoftware RAID is configured and managed by the operating system of the host computer. All processing via software RAID is handled by the host computer’s CPU. Traditionally hardware RAID offered better I/O performance but with technological advancements offered on CPU and operating system technologies, there is very little difference in performance between hardware and software RAID. Hetzner has removed hardware RAID from its product offering as software RAID offers a better price/performance ratio over hardware RAID. For customers who still wish to have hardware RAID configured on their...
