SUPPORT FOR LINE OF
BUSINESS APPLICATIONS
SQL Server 2008 R2
Installing SQL Server 2008 R2
• Typically installed on a separate server using the
copy of Windows Server 2008 R2 included in the
Premium Add-On
• Can be installed on the Windows SBS 2011
machine
Security Considerations
Before installing SQL Server
•
•
•
•
•
Enhance physical security
Use firewalls
Isolate services
Configure a secure file system
Disable NetBIOS
• UDP/137, 138
• TCP/139
• Disable Server Message Block (SMB)
• TCP/139
• TCP/445
Physical and logical isolation make up the foundation of
SQL Server security
Post-Install Security Considerations
Best Practices for accounts and
authentication modes
• Assign fewest possible permissions to Service
accounts
• Require Windows Authentication mode
• Use strong passwords
Backup and Restore Strategies
Backup options
• Simple Recovery Model
• Full Recovery Model
• Transaction Log Backups
Separate data and backups
• Place the database and backups on separate devices to
enable recovery if the database device fails
• I/O performance is enhanced when backups are written to a
separate device
Lesson 3
SUPPORT FOR VIRTUALIZATION
Virtualization Licensing in SBS 2011
For SBS 2011 Standard, you may run one instance of the server
software on a physical or virtual machine, but not both.
You can choose to run the Premium Add-On server software on a second physical server.
• You can run an instance of Windows Server 20008 R2 Standard technologies on a physical or virtual
machine (VM); and if you run on VM, you are allowed to run an additional instance on a physical machine
in order to run hardware virtualization software, provide hardware virtualization services, or run software
to manage and service operating system environments on the licensed server.
• You can run any number of instances of SQL Server 20008 R2 Standard Edition for Small Business in one
physical or virtual machine, and it must be joined to the SBS domain.
Premium Add-On is similar to a stand-alone Windows Server Standard license.
• You may run one instance of the operating system on a physical or virtual machine.
• If you run on a virtual machine, you may run an additional instance of the operating system on a physical
machine in order to run hardware virtualization software; provide hardware virtualization services; or run
software to manage and service operating system environments on the licensed server.
When using the SBS Premium Add-On server, you can choose to deploy
Server Core as the parent and Server with GUI as a child
• The parent can only be used for supporting virtualization.
SBS Scenarios: Fully Virtualized
Technical Impact
• Hardware requirements stay the same as physical
• Disk, CPU, RAM
• Backup/Restore Plans
• Snapshots/Quick Migration not supported in Windows Server 2008
• Live Migration Supported
• Fax Service not supported
• Detailed setup step-by-step will be on TechNet
• Some features change - details next slide
Business Impact
•
•
•
•
Check potential HW savings – ensure you maintain the HW requirements
Some flexibility over time when moving between servers
Good scenario for small low -load SBS deployments (<10 users)
Remember SBS has 40-60% density already before virtualizing!
Licensing Required
SBS Premium Add-On with the 2nd Server configured as Parent
partition, or Hyper-V Server
SBS Scenario: Fully Virtualized, cont.
Technical Impact
• Backup relies on direct attached storage
• Create a fixed sized VHD that resides on a separate disk drive
• Drive should be external to protect from HW failure
• Add the VHD to the child partition as an additional drive
• Alternatively USB hard disk drives can be taken offline in the
physical device manager and then mounted into the VM as an
internal drive
• Must copy the answer file to either a virtual floppy disk or a virtual
hard disk that is then connected to the VM
• COM ports are not virtualized; devices such as UPS, Fax/Modems are
impacted
• The Windows Server 20008 R2 Fax server role is not supported in a
virtual machine
SBS Scenario: Presentation Virtualization
Technical Impact
• Premium Add-On is the ideal server for
Remote Desktop Services
• SBS Standard Server has RD Gateway installed
• Premium Add-On Server has RDS Session Host role capability
Business Impact
• Simplify management and reduce servicing costs
• Provide common user experience increasing usability
• Provide outside system access with RWA
Licensing Required
SBS Premium Add-On with the 2nd Server configured with
RDS application mode, RDS users require a RDS CAL.
