Automatic tiered storage technology is popular.

Automatic tiered storage is gaining popularity, with mainstream storage vendors such as Dell, EMC, HP, HDS, and IBM adding automated tiering software to the array. As a technology, automated tiered storage can reduce overall costs by reducing the use of expensive storage devices while increasing storage efficiency. This is also the most attractive for users.

As printers become popular in the company, printer server backups are also on the agenda, and this month's printer backup techniques are widely watched by storage managers. When a Microsoft Hyper-V user backs up a virtual server, it takes into account whether to back up the entire host or to backup a virtual machine. Best practices for backup in Hyper-V environments give readers relevant answers. Storage performance metrics in a server virtualization environment is also a problem for many storage managers, often used to test storage performance metrics through the client operating system, to test storage performance metrics through hypervisor, and to test storage performance metrics by storing messages. Also need to read the article carefully.

Microsoft has made major changes in some of the underlying data structures for Exchange Server 2010, and these significant changes will have a greater impact on subsequent storage requirements and deployments for Exchange Server 2010. There are a lot of things to consider when planning your Exchange Server storage architecture. Let's look at some of the articles that have been shortlisted for the October most popular technique Top5.

Top1. Automatic tiered storage technology is popular.

Automatic tiered storage has since been considered one of the most insurmountable obstacles to implementation, whether in terms of technology itself or cost, when solid-state drives first appeared in the storage array three years ago. Although it now seems that solid-state drives are not available in all storage arrays, at least no one complains that when choosing a storage array, there is no automatic layering option.

Automated tiering Software is common in most storage arrays today. For example, Dell has the full automatic tiered storage (FAST) of data progression,emc in their compellent products, HP's re-use optimization in their 3PAR arrays, HDS Company's dynamic tiering and IBM's easy tier, and so on. These applications differ in the number of tiers they support and the degree to which customers can control them, but are essentially tiered technologies based on sub LUNs.

Top2. Printer Backup Recovery Tips

By learning this article, you will learn about the importance of backup to the printer server, and we will learn about the backup and recovery techniques for the printer together.

There are many factors to consider when upgrading the printer server from the original Windows 2003 to Windows 2008. A frequently overlooked issue is whether the old and new versions of the server support the application, which is why we need to temporarily remove the existing printers during the upgrade process.

Thankfully, we don't need to redeploy the printer server after the server upgrade. Before the server upgrade, we have a way to backup the printer server, the system will be upgraded to restore the data back to the new system.

Top3. Hyper-V Backup: Select hypervisor Backup or virtual machine backup

When backing up a virtual server in a Hyper-V environment, the most frequently asked question is whether you will back up the entire host or backup a virtual machine. This article describes best practices for backup in Hyper-V environments and the differences between hypervisor backup and virtual machine backup.

Top4. Storage performance metrics scenario in server virtualization environment: which is better?

By storing performance metrics, you can assess the specifics of the monitoring storage system's support for the server virtualization environment, and there are many factors to consider.

The storage configuration for server virtualization can be a storage device for hypervisor or network-based files or blocks of data. When storage is configured to Hypervisor,hypervisor control access permissions, the problem is that the relationship between the two is that any impact on the Hypervisor will affect the application running on the Hypervisor; performance metrics, and understand their The overall impact of hypervisor is very important.

Top5. Say Exchange 2010 and storage System

Microsoft has made major changes in some of the underlying data structures for Exchange Server 2010, and these significant changes will have a greater impact on subsequent storage requirements and deployments for Exchange Server 2010.

The biggest change Microsoft has made is to remove the single instance store (Single-instance storage,sis). In previous versions, if a message was forwarded to multiple recipients, only one copy of the message would be stored in the mailbox database. The user will receive a pointer to this single copy rather than a full copy of the copy.
