You've probably decided to begin deploying Server 2008 Standard. The best way to
maximize your use of the app is to use the Computer Management tool to be able
to track every connection. You will also be able to track the shared resources
on a Server 2008 R2 system. Therefore, every time somebody makes use of a
shared resource, it will be reflected on the Sessions node of the app.
TO view each of these connections you should input
“net session” on the command prompt. Additionally, you can follow these steps:
a. Link
up with the device or PC that you made the shared resource. This is done in the
Computer Management section.
b. You
will find that using the console tree, you are given the option to be able to
expand the System Tools, the Shared Folders and to choose Sessions. After this,
you should be able to view connections to the different shares for the
different users and their devices.
There are columns in the Sessions node and these
are crucial information about every user and each of their device’s connections.
Just remember, Computer indicates what device i.e. computer is used as of the
moment. Type indicates the kind of network connection that is deployed. Open
Files specifies the quantity or number of files that a user is currently
engaging in.
By extension, do not forget that Connected Time
indicates the time that has transpired ever since the connection was made. On
the other hand, Idle Time indicates the amount of time since a certain
connection was last deployed. A Guest is what will be reflected on if the user
is logged in as a guest and of course the User indicates the users of the
devices who are using the shared resources.
These, though are just the technical aspects of
getting connections to work as a cohesive whole, always remember to focus on
the bottom line of the business. You should also ensure that everyone is
looking out for one another. A good IT
department knows that they are an indispensable aspect of any organization, so Server 2008 Standard or not, you should
make the most out of this.
Finally, it is important to hold regular meetings
and to communicate regularly with every key player of the team. This makes sure
that no one gets left out and every feels like an integral part of the whole.
