How to assign SMB storage to CSV in HV failover cluster?

I have a Hyper-V Cluster that looks like this:
Clustered-Hyper-V-Diagram
2012 R2 Failover Cluster
2 Hyper-V nodes
iSCSI Disk Witness on isolated "Cluster Only" Network
"Cluster and Client" Network with nic-team connectivity to 2012 R2 File Server
Share configured using: server manager > file and storage services > shares > tasks > new share > SMB Share - Applications > my RAID 1 volume.
My question is this: how do I configure a Clustered Shared Volume? How do I present the Shared Folder to the cluster?
I can create/add VMs from Cluster Manager > Roles > Virtual Machines using \\SMB\Share for the location of the vhd... but how do I use a CSV with this config? Am I missing something?

right click one of the disks that you assigned to cluster as available storage
I don't yet have any disks assigned to the cluster as available storage.
Just for grins, I added an 8Gb iSCSI lun and added it to a CSV:
PS C:\> get-clusterresource
Name State OwnerGroup ResourceType
Cluster IP Address Online Cluster Group IP Address
Cluster Name Online Cluster Group Network Name
witness Online Cluster Group Physical Disk
PS C:\> Get-ClusterSharedVolume
Name State Node
test8Gb Online CLUSTERNODE01
All well and good, but from what I've read elsewhere...
SMB 3.0 via a 2012 File server can only be added to a Hyper-V CSV cluster using the VMM component of System Center 2012. That is the only way to import an SMB 3 share for CSV storage usage.

Error 2927 when creating VM from template to remote SMB storage or CSV volume.

Hi everybody! When you try to create a VM from a template cause an error (2927), this occurs only if I create a VM on remote SMB storage or CSV volume, if I create a VM from a template on a local repository server (local disk C:\ for example) Hyper-V,
while no such problem and everything goes well. Already during the week I can not solve this problem, and and tried many methods but they do not help. Please help me to solve this problem. OS 2012R2 with last update, VMM2012R2 with last update.
Thx!

Yes I have installed UR2 for VMM and also applied the T-SQL script, I created new test environment, added Hyper-V hosts in my environment.

Selecting VHDx as storage for File Server Role (Failover Cluster 2012 R2)

Is it possible to select an already existing (offline) VHD or VHDX as storage when creating the "File Server" role? Reason I want to do that is because I already have a file server setup as a virtual machine and causing issues so my company
decided to make the change towards a File Server role.
Thank you
David

Hi David,
Do you mean you configured it to file server failover cluster via "High Availability Wizard" ?
I think you need to choose a shared volume between two nodes to achieve high availability .
Please refer to following link :
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc731844(v=WS.10).aspx
If you do not select a shared volume , I think there is no difference than sharing a mounted VHDX file on a standalone file server .
I would suggest to copy these files to CSV and share them .
Hope it helps

SMB File Share Storage Failover Cluster "path is not valid folder path"

I am having an issue that I am scratching my head over. So I have setup a 3 node Hyper-V host cluster that I am attempting to use SMB File Share storage for the shared storage medium. I have been trying to migrate a virtual machine from one of the nodes
local storage into the file share using System Center VMM 2012 R2 with UR5 however I keep getting the message "The specified path is not a valid folder path on node2.domain.com" for the storage that VMM automatically selects for placement of files
from the migration. However what is odd is to the same file share for storage I can do a new deployment of a virtual machine to the same cluster with the same shares; I can also delete a virtual machine from the share fine; the file share for the virtual machine
I library I am deploying machines from is the same server as the file shares for the cluster that I am deploying to so maybe that is why that succeeds; if I try to move the recently deployed VM from one file share to another for storage same error comes up.
The three nodes all reference the same file server, which is just one file server for the storage, and the shares were created in VMM and as such the file share permissions were setup by VMM so they should be sufficient. I have also attempted this with both
delegation of CIFS and without through AD (trust to specified computers with CIFS, Hyper-V Replica and Microsoft Virtual Console Service via Kerberos only).
I am stumped as to what to check next or how to get this working and would appreciate any guidance anyone can give towards a resolution for this problem.

Jeff,
Thanks for reporting this.
There's an known issue with UR5 that VMM gives wrong error when deploying a HAVM onto a SMB share. In that situation, VMM complains "Invalid folder path".
To confirm you are hitting the same issue, would you kindly let me know:
1. Are you trying to migrate a HighlyAvailable VM onto the SMB share?
2. On UI of "Migrate Storage Wizard", if you click "Browse", do you see the target file share showing up in "Select Destination Folder" dialog?
3. By "the three nodes all reference the same file server", I assume you added the target file share onto the list of File Share Storage thru the cluster's properties UI. If so, please go to the UI and check whether the access status shows
green there.
4. By "local storage", do you mean "local disk"? Or a shared LUN from any array? I assume it's not "available storage" or "CSV" of the cluster. Please double confirm.
Note: If we are sure hitting the known issue, I will later re-direct you to a hotfix. But let's make sure it is the issue first.
Look forward to your reply.

How to change the storage location in Lightroom 3.6.?

How to change the storage location in Lightroom 3.6.?
I use my internal hard drive NTFS of my MacBook Pro as my storage location of Lightroom 3.6. being installed in Snow Leopard now but the data of my photos get too big now. I have two fast and big external hard drives eSATA now which I want to use for my data/photos. I know how to copy the data from one hard drive to another but I don't know how to change the settings in connection with Lightroom easily. I still want to watch all fotos on my MacBook Pro but don't want to save any fotos on my internal harddrive any more. Isn't it possible to have the programm Lightroom on my internal harddrive but the data on two times on two different extermal hard drives? If I look at Lightroom - settings of catalogue - I see that the internal harddrive location is my storage location now but I my two external harddrives don't appear as folders. Why? How to change that so that the external hard drives appear in Lightroom and I can watch all my fotos immediately (sometimes using external hard drive 1 and sometimes using external hard drive 2)?
My external hard drives are in HFS+ but I use the software of Paragon so that there shouldn't be any problem to read and write the data (I use also Final Cut Express so my external hard drives are HFS+ and not NTFS).
I want to impert many data from CDs - should I copy the fotos first to my external hard drive and then import it into Lightroom or is it easier to import the data directly from the CD in Lightroom so that I don't have to name the folders two times?
I see that I have to sort the fotos from the CDs in new different folders and an used to do that in Finder of my MacBookPro. In Lightroom I don't want have to click each of hundreds of fotos to be able to put it into the right folders ... But how to import only a part of a CDs quickly into the right (newly created) folders?
Kind regards, Karin

Would you really leave the names of photos like DSC05271.ARW and DSC05271.jpeg etc.?
What if I name them f.i. like ...
2013-09-11_Austria_1_mountain.jpeg
2013-09-11_Austria_2_mountain.jpeg
2013-09-11_Austria_3_valley.jpeg
I would NOT do this. I would not change the file name.
I would add keywords and other metadata to the photos to identify the content of the photos, and from that point on, I would use keywords and other metdata to search for these photos.
However, let's look at the big picture. I think there are three different methods of organizing
Organize via keywords and other metadata, and not via operating system constructs such as file name and folder name
Organize via operating system constructs such as file name and folder name, and not via keywords and other metadata
Some combination of 1 and 2
You can choose any one of the three methods above, the choice is yours. I am a very strong believer that for most people (and it sounds like you are one of those people), method 1 is the best method. However, not everyone agrees.
There are drawbacks to using file names to identify your photos. One big drawback is that you must type the information into each photo's name, and this is more tedious than if you wanted to assign the keyword "mountain" to the photos, you can assign the keyword to multiple photos at once. Also, if you mis-spell the information in the file name on any photo, you have just made the photo much harder to find; whereas in Lightroom, the keyword can be assigned via a mouse click (so you can't mis-spell it), or by typing the first few letters and Lightroom (auto-fill) will find the correct keyword name. So using keywords is a much simpler way to go.
.. is this much too complicated to do that in Lightroom or even dangerous to got lost of photos?
It is very simple to add keywords, as I explained for this case. Create keywords "Austria", "Mountain", "Valley"; then select the desired photos, and then click on the check box next to the keyword name. It is much more complicated in my opinion to rename the photos in this manner.
There is less danger in doing this via keywords than the danger doing this via file names, because of potential mis-spellings.
If I spend a lot of time in editing photos (in Lightroom or Photoshop) I don't want that I loose those photos f.i. later if Lightroom won't be the software I use regarding the photos (in 10, 20 years?!)
Lightroom will OPTIONALLY write your keywords and other metadata to the files (or sidecar files in the case of RAW). Every photographic application I know of (and I'm sure those in the future) can read the keywords and other metadata. So if you ever want to switch to some other software, your keywords and other metadata are available. you can turn this option on via Edit->Catalog Settings->Metadata, check Automatically Write Changes to XMP.
So I have to create two folders - one with the originals and one with the edited exported photos?
No, you do not have to create two folders. You don't have to export everything, but if you do, you can put the exports wherever you want, including putting them in the same folder as the originals, with different name.
Why not edit them in Photoshop and save them in the second folder which I import later in Lightroom? Because it takes longer?
Wow, you really need to think about: Why are you using Lightroom?
Could you explain this to me? Why are you using Lightroom?
If your goal is to edit the photos in Photoshop, and then put them in folders with whatever custom name you want to give them, then what is the benefit of using Lightroom? You can do all of this WITHOUT Lightroom. You keep explaining that your intended goal is to use Photoshop and folders/file names, and this is a goal which AVOIDs all benefits of Lightroom. I can't understand what you think the benefits of using Lightroom are for you.
It is starting to sound to me like Lightroom is not the right software for you.

Assigning additional storage to workspace

Hi,
there should be a really simple answer to this question, but as I can't find it, I would be happy for some help :)
How do I request additional storage to a workspace as a workspace admin/assign additional storage as an apex admin in v. 3.1?
The manual (Application Express User's Guide Release 3.1) seems to be referring to version 3 or earlier?
Thanks!

hi
You can approve workspace limits via:
http://localhost:8080/apex/apex_admin
You can request workspace limit changes via
Home>Administration>Manage Services
Then click on Request Storage.

How to change the storage location while create delivery?

Hi all:
I have to question to trouble you,when I create a delivery with reference to a sales order,however every time it set storage location 'FG10' to the delivery automatically.I can modify it, but how to modify this default value?the sales order haven't information about storage location.
thanks.
Best regards
lance

Hi Lance
Please try this:
In SPRO, go to Logistics Execution - Shipping - Picking- Determine Picking location - assign picking locations
here, for the reqmt plant and shipping point and storage conditions, define the applicable storage location. If you are not assigning any storage conditions in you material master, you may leave it blank. Storage conditions can be defined in the Material master in General Plant Data / Storage view.
After maintaining this, try creating a delivery and see if the delivery gets created in the required storage location.
Please reward points if this helps you

How to solve this.
Thanks
Anto

Hi,
It seems there is some problem with configuration, check in the given path below for configuration.

How to assign numbers in external number range?

Dear experts,
Since NUMBER_GET_NEXT can only be used to assign numbers in internal number range, how to assign numbers in external number range?
So far, I only know the NUMBER_CHECK function module to deal with external number ranges and it only check a number whether it lies in any external number range or not, but it doesn't update any number range status. What I need is a function module like NUMBER_GET_NEXT that supports external number range.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Haris
Edited by: harissahlan on Oct 19, 2011 5:44 AM

With external number range, there is no updating of the number range objectt. The only thing you need to know is whether the number you wish to assign is allowed according to the external number range. And also check if there isn't already an object/document with the same number in the database.

How to assign a task to Reuestor in OIM 11g

How to assign a task to a requestor (who has raised a request for other user).
I created a Task assignment adapter and mapped variable in Process definition as
Map To: Request Info
Qualifier: Requester User Login
Still it returns null and default task is assigning to System adminstrator. I am pasting the Task Assignment code here. User key value coming as Null.
Do you have any idea what is the exact mapping required in Process definition.?? Pls note: I am using OIM version 11.1.1.5.0
public class TaskAssignmentToUserAdapter {
     Logger logger = Logger.getLogger("COM.IDM.PROV.COMMON.ADAPTERS");
     public String getTargetType(String targetType){
          return targetType;
     public String assignTaskToUser(String userKey,tcDataProvider dataProvider ){
          System.out.println("The user key value:" +userKey);
          return userKey;
     }

Not sure what sample code I can give you, but you need to do a query in your adapter like:
select REQUEST_KEY from OIU where ORC_KEY='?'
Here ORC_KEY should be mapped to the process instance key.
Once you have the Request key, you can use RequestServcie APIs to get the requester information. http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E14571_01/apirefs.1111/e17334/oracle/iam/request/api/RequestService.html#getBasicRequestData_java_lang_String_
Or if you don't care then get the requester key from the request table. Thus you can have the final query as:
select USR_LOGIN from USR where USR_KEY=(select REQUESTER_KEY from REQUEST where REQUEST_KEY = (select REQUEST_KEY from OIU where ORC_KEY='?'))

Hi,
There is no such an assignment. When you post a document, you define your G/L accounts and cost objects. If you want to make a default internal order for certain cost element, you can go to KA02 or OKB9 and define the defaults there.

How can assign a Fixed value to the member Propert? Can I achieve it in Conversion file....?
( My atempts failed...).
Any suggestion recommendation would be gretaly appreciated.
Munna.

Hi,
For adding fixed values to the properties, you can use the transformation file. In the mapping section, you can specify a constant value. This value will be written to properties of all the members while importing master data. However, for parenth, its a bit different. First thing is that, you need to have a member called CUSTOMER, then only you can have CUSTOMER in the parenth column. Even if you add it and use the mapping section for this purpose, then it will write CUSTOMER to parenth for all the members (even to CUSTOMER member). And this will be wrong. So, you will need to write it manually.
Hope you got the idea.

Hi ,
You can loop the internal table like
loop at <table xxxx> where field1 = ' xxx' or field1 = 'yyy'
or you can write two read statements to read the internal table in wrk area.
read table <table xxxx> with key field1 = ' xxx'.
if sy-subrc <>0
read table <table xxxx> with key field1 = 'yyy'.
if sy-subrc = 0
