Hi,Experience Windows Server 2012 first hand in these virtual labs. You can test drive new and improved features and functionality through deep end-to-end scenarios or specific features, including server management and Windows PowerShell, networking, Hyper-V, and new storage solutions.
Getting started
It's simple. No complex setup or installation is required to try Windows Server 2012 running in a full-featured virtual lab. You get a downloadable manual and a 90-minute block of time for each module. Before you start, read the minimum system requirements. Next, select a virtual lab from the list below. Then, you will see an application called "holSystems LaunchPad Online" which will launch the lab.Scenario virtual labs
- Building a Resilient Network InfrastructureWindows Server 2012 introduces three new networking technologies: DHCP failover, which automatically replicates and load-balances DHCP servers; DNSSEC for secure signing of critical DNS records and to centralize management of all of this; and IP Address Management (IPAM), a centralized suite of tools that provides a single view into the health of your core IP infrastructure. In this lab, you will implement all three technologies to create a more resilient network infrastructure.
- Building a Remote Storage Infrastructure to Support Your Critical WorkloadsWindows Server 2012 introduces the ability to leverage server message block (SMB)–based storage for server applications such as SQL Server and Hyper-V. In this lab, you will explore and implement a remote storage solution using SMB 3.0, consisting of a file server cluster that is configured for continuous availability with transparent failover. You will then configure your enterprise class storage solution using Storage Spaces and deduplication. Finally, you will implement and test a highly available remote storage cluster with SMB Multichannel.
- Configuring a Web Farm for Multitenant ApplicationsThis lab walks you through the configuration settings of IIS 8, which support the creation of multitenant web farms. IIS 8 has been enhanced to provide greater scalability and isolation by incorporating features such as CPU throttling, network QoS, and aggressive memory management. Additionally, complex web farms can deploy SSL certificates on file servers instead of broadly across all servers, leveraging server name indication for SSL connections.
- Deploying and Configuring Servers with Server ManagerWindows Server 2012 includes a newly designed Server Manager experience that places emphasis on multiserver management and role-based management. Windows PowerShell has also been greatly improved, adding thousands of additional cmdlets, improved remote support, and a new capability called Windows PowerShell Web Access. In this lab, you will leverage all of these features and capabilities to deploy multiple new servers running Windows Server 2012 in your network.
- Enabling Secure Remote Users with RemoteApp, DirectAccess, and Dynamic Access ControlWindows Server 2012 provides new, exciting features to easily implement secure remote user features. In this lab, you will begin by leveraging both RemoteApp and VDI to allow users to work securely on remote applications from home computers. Next, you will grant those users access to corporate resources by enabling them to leverage DirectAccess. Finally, you will grant those users access to secure files via Dynamic Access Control by modifying properties of the user accounts.
