         optical links. Configured RAID arrays.
        Installed and configured terminal servers on Windows Server 2008 R2 and Citrix XenApp 5.0 (load-balancing farm
         for 200+ users). Implemented Thinprint .print printing system.
        Configured home folders redirection for terminal server users via group policy. Provided FTP access to home
         directories of remote users based on their Active Directory profile.
        Installed and configured MS SQL 2005 x64 edition. Tuned and optimized performance of critical tasks,
         troubleshooted blocking queries issues. Created scripts for transferring database from main to standby SQL
         server, implemented user logins replication with preserving user's SID and password, so that switching from
         working to standby environment was made easy.

collaborative solution for the entire enterprise, while maintaining integration with Windows and Active Directory
environment.

Activities:
     Planned and designed Windows and Linux integrated network environment with Active Directory users
         authentication (Kerberos).

     Maintained servers up and running with workload of about 500 users.

Project Name: Consolidation and virtualization of servers.
Project Description: Due to power limits in server room it was adviseable to reduce power consumption, minimize heat
emission, optimize air conditioning. To achieve it, servers were transferred into virtual environment hosted on Microsoft
Hyper-V R2 hypervisor.

Activities:
     Moved physical servers into virtual machines, trying to keep minimum down time.
     Monitored workload and performance of the virtual servers.
     Planned backup of virtualized servers with least disruption of the working process.
