Tandberg Viking Series Storage Server Administration Manual

3.12.2. Single Instance Storage

Single Instance Storage (SIS) provides a copy-on-write link between multiple
files. Disk space is recovered by reducing the amount of redundant data
stored on a server. If a user has two files sharing disk storage by using SIS,
and someone modifies one of the files, users of the other files do not see the
changes. The underlying shared disk storage that backs SIS links is
maintained by the system and is only deleted if all the SIS links pointing to it
are deleted. SIS automatically determines that two or more files have the
same content and links them together.

Notes

Single Instance Storage is only available on Standard and Enterprise editions of
Windows Storage Server 2003 R2.

3.12.3. File Server Resource Manage

File Server Resource Manager is a suite of tools that allows administrators to
understand, control, and manage the quantity and type of data stored on
their servers. By using Storage Resource Manager, administrators can place
quotas on volumes, actively screen files and folders, and generate
comprehensive storage reports.

By using Storage Resource Manager, you can perform the following tasks:

• Create quotas to limit the space allowed for a volume or folder and

to generate notifications when the quota limits are approached and
exceeded.

• Create file screens to screen the files that users can save on

volumes and in folders and to send notifications when users attempt
to save blocked files

• Schedule periodic storage reports that allow users to identify trends

in disk usage and to monitor attempts to save unauthorized files, or
generate the reports on demand.

3.12.4. Windows SharePoint Services

Windows SharePoint Services is an integrated set of collaboration and
communication services designed to connect people, information,
processes, and systems, both within and beyond the organization firewall.

NOTE:
Windows SharePoint Services is only available on Standard and Enterprise editions
of Windows Storage Server 2003 R2.
