Introduction
Windows Server 2003 is the follow-up to Windows 2000 Server, incorporating
compatibility and other features from Windows XP. Unlike Windows 2000 Server,
Windows Server 2003's default installation has none of the server components
enabled, to reduce the attack surface of new machines. Windows Server 2003
includes compatibility modes to allow older applications to run with greater
stability. It was made more compatible with Windows NT 4.0 domain-based
networking. Incorporating and upgrading a Windows NT 4.0 domain to Windows
2000 was considered difficult and time-consuming, and generally was considered
an all-or-nothing upgrade, particularly when dealing with Active Directory.
Windows Server 2003 brought in enhanced Active Directory compatibility, and
better deployment support, to ease the transition from Windows NT 4.0 to
Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP Professional.
Windows Small Business Server includes Windows Server and additional
technologies aimed at providing a small business with a complete technology
solution. The technologies are integrated to enable small business with targeted
solutions such as the Remote Web Workplace, and offer management benefits
such as integrated setup, enhanced monitoring, a unified management console,
and remote access.
Windows Server 2003, Web Edition is mainly for building and hosting Web
applications, Web pages, and XML Web services. It is designed to be used
primarily as an IIS 6.0 Web server and provides a platform for rapidly developing
and deploying XML Web services and applications that use ASP.NET technology, a
key part of the .NET Framework. This edition does not require Client Access
Licenses and Terminal Server mode is not included on Web Edition. However,
Remote Desktop for Administration is available on Windows Server 2003, Web
Edition. Only 10 concurrent file-sharing connections are allowed at any moment.
It is not possible to install Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Exchange software
in this edition. However MSDE and SQL Server 2005 Express are fully supported
after service pack 1 is installed. Despite supporting XML Web services and
ASP.NET, UDDI cannot be deployed on Windows Server 2003, Web Edition. The
.NET Framework version 2.0 is not included with Windows Server 2003, Web
Edition, but can be installed as a separate update from Windows Update.
Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition is aimed towards small to medium
sized businesses. Standard Edition supports file and printer sharing, offers secure
Internet connectivity, and allows centralized desktop application deployment.
This edition of Windows will run on up to 4 processors with up to 4 GB RAM. 64-bit
versions are also available for the x86-64 architecture (AMD64 and EM64T, called
collectively x64 by Microsoft). The 64-bit version of Windows Server 2003,
Standard Edition is capable of addressing up to 32 GB of RAM and it also supports
Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA), something the 32-bit version does not do.
The 32-bit version is available for students to download free of charge as part of
Microsoft's DreamSpark program.
Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition is aimed towards medium to large
businesses. It is a full-function server operating system that supports up to eight
processors and provides enterprise-class features such as eight-node clustering
using Microsoft Cluster Server (MSCS) software and support for up to 32 GB of
memory through PAE (added with the /PAE boot string). Enterprise Edition also
comes in 64-bit versions for the Itanium and x64 architectures. The 64-bit
versions of Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition are able of addressing up to
1 TB of memory. Both 32-bit and 64-bit versions support Non-Uniform Memory
 Page 1 of 9
Access (NUMA). It also provides the ability to hot-add supported hardware.
Enterprise Edition is also required to issue custom certificate templates.
Datacenter Edition include Windows Server 2003, is designed for
infrastructures demanding high security and reliability. Windows Server 2003 is
available for x86 32-bit, Itanium, and x64 processors. It supports a maximum of
up to 32 processors on 32-bit or 64 processors on 64-bit hardware. 32-bit
architecture also limits memory addressability to 128 GB, while the 64-bit
versions support up to 2 TB. Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition, also
allows limiting processor and memory usage on a per-application basis.
Windows Compute Cluster Server 2003 (CCS), released in June 2006, is
designed for high-end applications that require high performance computing
clusters. It is designed to be deployed on numerous computers to be clustered
together to achieve supercomputing speeds. Each Compute Cluster Server
network comprises at least one controlling head node and subordinate processing
nodes that carry out most of the work.
Windows Storage Server 2003, a part of the Windows Server 2003 series is a
specialized server Operating System for Network Attached Storage (NAS). It is
optimized for use in file and print sharing and also in Storage Area Network (SAN)
scenarios. It is only available through Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs).
Unlike other Windows Server 2003 editions that provide file and printer sharing
functionality, Windows Storage Server 2003 does not require any Client access
licenses.

Steps Keypoints

1. Serving a new
The most important things should take into
Operating system consideration when planning for the Windows Server
Windows Server 2003 installation:
2003 1) Check System Requirements
2) Check Hardware and Software Compatibility
3) Determine Disk Partitioning Options
4) Choose the Appropriate File System: FAT, FAT32,
NTFS
5) Decide on a Workgroup or Domain Installation
6) Complete a Pre-Installation Checklist

2. Boot Windows in several methods – One of the method is ;
Server 2003 from i. By Bios, Set up booting from CD
installation CD ii. Insert the Window Server 2003 CD and start
the boot system
a) Executing the setup iii. Setup will load all the needed files and drive

vii. Select a file system for the installation

partition. After you create the partition on
which will install Windows Server 2003, I can
use Setup to select the file system with which
to format the partition. Windows Server 2003
supports the NTFS file system in addition to
the file allocation table (FAT) and FAT32 file
systems. Windows Server 2003, Windows XP
Professional, Windows 2000, and Windows NT
are the only Microsoft operating systems that
it can use to gain access to data on a local
hard disk that is formatted with NTFS. If
planned to gain access to files that are on a
local Windows Server 2003 partition with the
Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows 98
operating systems, it should format the
partition with a FAT or FAT32 file system. I
would use NTFS by using Quick Format.
