You can schedule automatic report delivery for result of sure replica, you can to receive
report by email, Note that you can schedule report after sure replica job done.

15. NAT SWITCH
• Test update patch
• Troubleshoot issues
• Train IT Staff
• Provision dev application

16. SQL

17. SQL Server architecture basics
• Database Server – Windows machine with one or more SQL
Instances installed
• There may be multiple SQL Instances on a single Windows
server
• Every SQL Server Instance is represented by a Windows Service
• Every SQL Server instance can have multiple Databases

18. Databases
Database is just a set of files until it’s attached to a SQL instance.
SQL Server provides SQL/T-SQL to interact with databases.
Main tools that DBAs and database users work with:
-SQL Server Management Studio
- SQL Log files
-sqlcmd
SELECT first_name, last_name FROM people WHERE hair_color = "red"

19. Data and Log files
Every database always has at least one data file (.MDF) and one log file
(.LDF)
It’s a good idea to put data and log files on separate disks for
maximizing I/O performance.
.MDF _log.LDF

20. Microsoft VSS and SQL

online backups

22. Veeam Explorer for SQL Server
Support for Point in time restore and
restore to a specific transaction
Easy way to restore or export SQL
databases
• To original location
• To any other SQL server (also physical)
• As a set of database files to any location of
your choosing

23. Veeam backup job settings
- Default option is to truncate the logs.
- Make sure it’s what you need.
- Logs are backed up to a ‘nul’ location to force truncation

24. Veeam SQL Log Backups
- Only for databases in full and bulk-logged recovery models
- Set up interval to meet you RPO/RTOs
- Per VM

25. Veeam SQL Log Backups
• Frequent log backups require some resources, so make
sure to test your settings.

26. Disaster Recovery
