How to create a backout plan before upgrate the Window Server?

Hi,

Thx

Hi,
Backup before upgrading should include all the data and configuration information that is necessary for the computer to function. It is important to perform a backup of configuration information for servers, especially those that provide a network infrastructure,
such as DHCP servers. When you perform the backup, be sure to include the boot and system partitions and the system state data. Another way to back up configuration information is to create a backup set for Automated System Recovery.
Detailed backup steps depends on the role and function of your server. Certain server roles that are already installed might require additional preparation or actions.
Here are documents and just for your reference:

  • How to create a mp3 playlist compatable with the media server (storage link)

    Hi,
    I have setup the wrt160nl wireless router with the latest Firmware Version: 1.00.01 B17.
    Everything is working great. I can browse the artists, albums, song titles etc from my usb hard disk.
    What isn't working is the play lists.
    What format does the play list need to be in?
    I assume a text file with the tracks listed like: \music\acdc\back in black.mp3
    What file extention or name will the playlist need to be in?
    My pnp player only sees two playlists:
    1) playlistlastplayed
    2) playlistmostplayed
    If I knew where those play lists were stored on the usb hard drive (or linksys internal ram?) then I might have a clue.....
    Thanks for any help on this.

    Playlistlastplayed has every track on the hard disk - and I haven't played them all, only like 3
    Playlistmostplayed has ONLY 1 track that I haven't played from the linksys upnp server at all
    I can play music off the album, artist and song lists fine.
    I'd just like to be able to use a play list, and can't seem to find out how to make one.
    I realize and understand that the linksys storage link system doesn't create them.
    I assume I can make my own text file with track listings and copy the play list to the usb hard drive attached.
    I just need to know the format of the text file, and what extention will it need.
    I have tried .m3u .m3u8 .wpl
    I don't have iTunes but if you told me I have to download that, import my music into that, then create the playlist there, well, I guess I could try that. I rather not load iTunes if possible.
    Thanks

  • How to create an explain plan with rowsource statistics for a complex query that include multiple table joins ?

    1. How to create an explain plan with rowsource statistics for a complex query that include multiple table joins ?
    When multiple tables are involved , and the actual number of rows returned is more than what the explain plan tells. How can I find out what change is needed  in the stat plan  ?
    2. Does rowsource statistics gives some kind of  understanding of Extended stats ?

    You can get Row Source Statistics only *after* the SQL has been executed.  An Explain Plan midway cannot give you row source statistics.
    To get row source statistics either set STATISTICS_LEVEL='ALL'  in the session that executes theSQL OR use the Hint "gather_plan_statistics"  in the SQL being executed.
    Then use dbms_xplan.display_cursor

  • How to create  a test plan with specific transactions (or program)

    Hello,
    I'm a new user in Sol Man !
    How to create  a test plan with specific transactions (or program).
    In my Business Blueprint (SOLAR01) I've created in 'transaction tab' the name of my specific transactions and linked it.
    In my test plan (STWB_2) those specific doesn't appear to be selected !
    Thanks in advance.
    Georges HUYNEN

    Hi 
    In solar01 you have defined but you have to assign the test case in solar02 for this test case in the test cases tab.
    When you do so expand the business sceanario node in test plan generation of STWB_2 transaction and now that will appear.

  • How to Create one more SOA-INFRA under the same domain in weblogic server

    Hi All,
    Can anybody can guide how to create one more soa-infra under the same domain. In order to maintain my composites to be deployed into
    different domains, I need to create one more soa-infra and deployed all the composites under that one.
    Please let me know if any demo is available for this activity to be gets completed.
    Regards,
    CH

    Hi Vijay,
    There are several composites which needs to be deployed and maintained in the server. So, we I'm trying to maintian
    by deploying composites into 3 different SOA-INFRA's so if one is not accessible, we can look into it and others can access the
    composites from another SOA-INFRA instead of creating domains.
    Let me know what will be feasible way to perform this activity.

  • How to create a hyperlink on a pop up window?

    Hi,
            How to create a hyperlink on a pop up window?
    The pop up window appears on right click in a transaction.
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Varun

    Hi Varun,
    While in transaction CRMD_BUS2000111 -> Opportunity -> select any -> partner tab, when I right click I get a standard pop up.
    I want to introduce my hyperlink in that standard pop up.
    you should have mentioned that earlier, that's the most complex part!
    This is called a contextual menu (for more information, read [SAP Library: Context Menus|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/94/c4a6377cc0c92ce10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm ]).
    Adding a menu item (that is not called an hyperlink, or is there something I didn't understand?) there is probably a modification of the standard. Either modifying the ABAP, or adding it to a GUI status of type "contextual menu".
    There are number of demo programs, like DEMO_DYNPRO_CONTEXT_MENU, CTMENU_BUILD, CTMENU_DYNPRO...

    Is there any way to know how long the report executes and how many records will be returned before hitting the "run" option?
    Regards

    To know if the report is going to return more than 10,000 records, you first have to run the query with a 'select count(1) from ... where ...' (with the same from and where clauses as you normal query). Since this takes about the same time as runnng your report, I wonder if you really gain anything (although formatting may take some time too).
    You may simplify the select count(1) query by omitting all the lookup tables that are only needed for formatting. That way your query may run a lot faster. You can put this in your after parameter form trigger.

    Most of the people on these forums, including myself, are fellow users - you're not talking to iTunes Support here.
    Did you follow the instructions on that page exactly when creating the account (the instructions won't work with existing accounts) ? e.g. if doing it on your phone and you are currently logged into an account then log out of it, find a free app in the app store app, tap on its free price button, tap 'install app', and then tap on 'create new apple id' on the popup that you get. I tried those instructions on my phone a few days ago in response to another thread and I got the 'none' option on the payments screen.

I tried burning the .iso file to a cd but bootcamp says it can not recognize the cd for installation. How can a make a bootable copy of the windows xp .iso file so that I can install it on my iMac.

    You used Disk Utility I take it?

  • How to add byte[] array based Image to the SQL Server without using parameter

    how to add byte[] array based Image to the SQL Server without using parameter.I have a column in table with the type image in sql and i want to add image array to the sql image column like below:
    I want to add image (RESIM) to the procedur like shown above but sql accepts byte[] RESIMI like System.Drowing. I whant that  sql accepts byte [] array like sql  image type
    not using cmd.ParametersAdd() method
    here is Isle() method content

    SQL Server binary constants use a hexadecimal format:
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms179899.aspx
    You'll have to build that string from a byte array yourself:
    byte[] bytes = ...
    StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder("0x", 2 + bytes.Length * 2);
    foreach (var b in bytes)
    builder.Append(b.ToString("X2"));
    string binhex = builder.ToString();
    That said, what you're trying to do - not using parameters - is the wrong thing to do. Not only it is insecure due to the risk of SQL injection but in the case of binary data is also inefficient since these hex strings are larger than the original byte[]
    data.
