Exercise 3.1 Initializing Disks


Overview In this exercise, you use two different tools to bring three new disks online
and initialize them in preparation for creating storage volumes.

Mindset Adding disk drives is a common server hardware upgrade, requiring an


administrator to prepare them for use.
Completion time 15 minutes

The three offline disks all use the SCSI bus type, whereas the online disk uses the
ATA bus. Why can’t the three offline disks use the ATA bus as well?

Server Manager and the Disk Management snap-in.

Mindset Server Manager and Disk Management both provide wizards for creating simple
volumes, with similar capabilities.

Completion time 15 minutes

What Windows PowerShell commands should you use to create a simple


volume of the same size on disk 3 using the drive letter G:?

Exercise 3.3 Creating a Storage Pool


Overview In this exercise, you use the Server Manager console to create a storage
pool, which consists of space from multiple physical disks.

Mindset Storage pools are a new feature in Windows Server 2012 R2, which enable
you to create a flexible storage subsystem with various types of fault
tolerance.
Completion time 15 minutes

Why can’t the wizard create a virtual disk using the Parity layout when there are
only two physical disks in the storage pool?

Question

19. Press Alt+Prt Scr to take a screen shot of the Storage Pools page, showing the storage pool and the
virtual disk you created, and then press Ctrl+V to paste the resulting image into the Lab 3
worksheet file in the page provided.

At this point in the lab, what would happen to any data stored on the E:, F:, G:,
and J: drives if Disk 2 on the server was to fail?

Challenge Removing Storage Components
Overview In addition to the graphical tools provided with Windows Server 2012
R2, you can also manipulate the storage subsystem using Windows
PowerShell commands.
Completion time 15 minutes

To complete this challenge, list the Windows PowerShell commands needed to delete all of the storage
components you created during this lab on the SCSI disks of SERVERC. Then, restart SERVERC and
take a screen shot of the Storage Pools page, showing the removal of the storage pool and the virtual disk
you created. Press Ctrl+V to paste the resulting image into the Lab 3 worksheet file in the page provided.
