Module - 02 - Configuration Du Stockage Local

The document discusses configuring local storage in Windows Server. It covers managing disks by selecting a partition table format like MBR or GPT, disk type as basic or dynamic, and file system like FAT, NTFS, or ReFS. It also discusses using virtual hard disk file formats like VHD and VHDX. The document then covers managing volumes by discussing volume types, options for managing volumes, and demonstrations. It concludes by covering extending and shrinking volumes, and explaining RAID levels like 0, 1, 5, 6, and 1+0.

Module Overview

• Managing disks in Windows Server


• Managing volumes in Windows Server
Lesson 1: Managing disks in Windows Server

• Selecting a partition table format


• Selecting a disk type
• Selecting a file system
• Using .vhd and .vhdx file types
• Selecting a disk type
Selecting a partition table format

MBR
• Standard partition table format since early 1980s
• Supports a maximum of four primary partitions per
drive
• Can partition a disk up to 2 TB

GPT
• GPT is the successor of the MBR partition table format
• Supports a maximum of 128 partitions per drive
• Can partition a disk up to 18 exabytes

✓ Use MBR for disks smaller than 2 TB


✓ Use GPT for disks larger than 2 TB
Selecting a disk type

Basic disks are:


• Disks initialized for basic storage
• The default storage for the Windows operating system

Dynamic disks can:


• Be modified without restarting the Windows system
• Provide several options for configuring volumes

Disk volume requirements include:


• A system volume for hardware-specific files that are
required to start the server
• A boot volume for the Windows operating system files
Selecting a file system

When selecting a file system, consider the differences between


FAT, NTFS, and ReFS
FAT provides:
• Basic file system
• Partition size limitations
• FAT32 to enable larger disks
• exFAT developed for flash drives
NTFS provides:
• Metadata
• Auditing and journaling
• Security (ACLs and encryption)
ReFS provides:
• Backward compatibility support for NTFS
• Enhanced data verification and error correction
• Support for larger files, directories, and volumes
Using .vhd and .vhdx file types

• Virtual hard disks are files that you can use the same
as physical hard disks

• You can:
• Create and manage virtual hard disks by using Disk
Management and Diskpart.exe
• Configure .vhd or .vhdx files
• Configure computers to start from the virtual hard disk
• Transfer virtual hard disks from Hyper-V servers, and
start computers from the virtual hard disk
• Use virtual hard disks as a deployment technology

Lesson 2: Managing volumes in Windows Server

• What are disk volumes?


• Options for managing volumes
• Demonstration: Managing volumes
• Extending and shrinking a volume
• What is RAID?
• RAID levels
What are disk volumes?
Windows Server 2016 supports the following volume
types:
• Simple: Assez identique à une partition principale sur
un disque de base, il utilise un espace de stockage libre
sur un seul disque. L’agrandissement du volume peut
se faire sur le même disque.
• Spanned: Un volume fractionné consiste à configurer
un volume simple utilisant plusieurs disques.
Néanmoins, comme pour le volume simple, cette
solution ne possède pas de tolérance de panne. En cas
de casse d’un disque, les données sont perdues. Les
partitions qui seront utilisées peuvent avoir des tailles
différentes

What are disk volumes?

Windows Server 2016 supports the following


volume types:
• Striped: Un volume agrégé par bande n’apporte
pas de tolérance de panne, il offre néanmoins la
possibilité d’obtenir de meilleurs temps de
réponse. En effet, le volume s’étend sur deux ou
plusieurs disques. Ainsi, les données sont
allouées de manière alternative et uniforme à
l’ensemble des disques physiques. Les partitions
qui seront utilisées doivent être de même tailles
(Raid 0)

traitements
What are disk volumes?
Windows Server 2016 supports the following volume
types:
• Mirrored: Volume mirroir à tolérance de pannes qui
duplique les données sur deux disques physiques. Un
volume en miroir assure la redondance des données à
l'aide de deux volumes identiques, qui sont appelés
miroirs, pour dupliquer les informations contenues
dans le volume. Le miroir se trouve toujours sur un
disque différent. En cas de défaillance d'un des
disques physiques, les données qu'il contient ne sont
plus disponibles, mais le système continue de
fonctionner sur le miroir du disque restant.

Demonstration: Managing volumes

In this demonstration, you will see how to:


• Create a new volume with Diskpart
• Create a mirrored volume

Extending and shrinking a volume

• You can resize volumes with Windows Server


2016
• When you want to resize a disk, consider the
following:
• You can extend or shrink NTFS volumes
• You can only extend ReFS volumes
• You cannot resize FAT/FAT32/exFAT volumes
• You cannot shrink a volume with bad clusters
What is RAID?

RAID (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks,


parfois Redundant Array of Independent Disks):
• Combines multiple disks into a single logical unit to
provide fault tolerance and performance
• Provides fault tolerance by using:
• Disk mirroring
• Parity information
• Can provide performance benefits by spreading disk
I/O across multiple disks
• Can be configured using several different levels
• Should not replace server backups
RAID levels

RAID 0
Striped set without parity or mirroring
