Server Manager is the primary GUI-based tool for managing roles, features, and configurations in Windows Server.
PowerShell allows administrators to perform advanced configurations and role management through command-line scripts.
Task Manager and Event Viewer are monitoring tools and do not directly manage roles or features.
NTFS (New Technology File System) is the recommended file system for Windows Servers due to its support for advanced features like encryption (BitLocker), permissions, quotas, and large file support.
ReFS (Resilient File System) is optimized for fault tolerance but is not yet as widely used as NTFS.
FAT32 and exFAT lack advanced security and file management features, making them unsuitable for server data volumes.
System Restore creates system restore points, which are snapshots of the system state (settings and installed programs) at a specific time. You can use it to revert to a previous state in case of issues.
Windows Update manages system updates.
Task Scheduler automates tasks, and System File Checker (SFC) repairs corrupted system files.
WDS is a Windows Server role that enables administrators to deploy Windows images to multiple computers over the network efficiently.
Manual installations and updates are inefficient for enterprise environments.
RDP is for remote access, not deployment.
The chkdsk command checks for disk errors and repairs them if possible.
ipconfig displays network configuration details.
netstat shows network connections and statistics.
diskpart is used for disk partition management, not error checking.
