Pre-configured MI Client

Hi MI guys,
is it possible to create a pre-configured MI client for deployment?
Question 1:
I want to set the right servers and some other configuration for the standard MI client so that the users don't have to enter something during installation?
Question 2:
What about using a deployment software like enteo Netinstall for installing a basic MI client? My thoughts are, I install and configure a MI client without synchronizing and this will be deployed via Netinstall on the client device (without installation routine of MI client).
Thank you and regards,
Florian

Hi Florian,
The short answer to both of those questions is "yes".
In our environment we used "Wise for Windows" utility to install SAP MI client with required parameters (IP address, SAP system ID, etc.), and then compile new .MSI package with pre-setup parameters.
And yes, we are able now to install it automatically now for our clients via Script Logic. It uses MSIEXEC on the background with "/quiet" option enabled and because of pre-configured settings, no input from end user is required during install process.
I think it should work properly with the other deployment tools, as they uses the similar logic.
Hope this answers your question.
Best regards,
Laziz

Pre configured client

Hi Team
There is a business requirement to install pre configured client of SAP (ECC) for US region
So requesting you to guide me where can I get the transport request for pre configured client

Gopal,
If you are asking this question, then you probably shouldn't be installing this package on your own.
There are basic installation instructions for all SAP software, and there are specific implementation guides for each package. Normally, this task is performed by a Basis expert.
If you wish to try anyway (I don't recommend this), then all the information you need is either on the BP web site, or links exist on this site to direct you to the info you will need. If you are downloading a baseline package, start here http://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000728648& select the one you want. There is an info button, and a download button. Click on the Info button, which will take you to BP docs for the package you have selected. Read ALL, especially the stuff contained in the 'Explore and Evaluate' section.
Better, though, to hand the links and files to your Basis person and allow them to install.

Pre-Configured Cisco VPN Client install

Im looking at creating a pre-configured install for the 4.8 client. This normally involves editing cab file contents?? I've been unable to locate a 'how 2' guide for this, does anyone have any ideas, has anyone tried this before, can it be done???

Have located this:

How do you copy/install a pre-configure client for Mexico

Is there a pre-configured client for Mexico.
If yes, how do you install pre-configured clients.
Where do you get information on pre-configured clients
Thanks
Joe

Hello Joe,
actually, there is another possibility that might be interesting for you:
http://service.sap.com/bestpractices
At "Release Planning" -> Availability Matrix
I can see that the country-specific baseline for Mexico is available for ECC 6.0, also, an updated version and a version for the Retail-industry is planned for Q3/Q1, respectively.
The documentation DVD of the best practices explains in detail the business processes, master data etc. that will be activated in the system if you install the SAP Best Practices Baseline Mexico in your system.

CS4 Suite (all Windows versions) - documentation of XML and pre-configuration of components?

With a view to packaging and deploying CS4 in Microsoft enterprise environments (ie GPO restricted desktops, mandatory user profiles, non-administrative user base, at or near minimum spec hardware) I was wondering if anyone was aware of any documentation, official or otherwise, for pre-configuration or omission of individual components within the CS4 suite in order to more specifically tailor their operation to user requirements. Eg, such as the way Adobe provide a transform generator/editor for Acrobat in its standalone form.
The instructions for performing silent installs with or without the more major components (such as Dreamweaver, Photoshop etc) work fine, and the Adobe CS4 Deployment Toolkit (aka AdobeUberInstaller) deals with a number of omissions in the base installer such ELUA and updates suppression. However there are various options within the applications themselves I would like to change the defaults for at install time (eg suppress Adobe Bridge from prompting to run at startup, address Acrobat's refusal to run until another element of the suite has been run first etc), patches I would like to slipstream rather than apply retrospectively (currently Air, Indesign, Photoshop), and some elements (such as foreign language components and 64bit support) I would ideally like to omit from the source package altogether to keep the size down - 6GB+ to 500 clients is quite an ordeal!
Web resources such as application deployment forums have allowed me to address some of the above, but I would be very interested in the feedback/experiences of this community. I appreciate what I'm asking is somewhat vague but any crumbs of wisdom all add up...
Many thanks in advance for any suggestions.

The best is to get the versions in which you have developed/tested. These can be found in MAX under Software, if it is possible provide a link to the NI ftp download URL.
Then export the settings in MAX (for tasks/scales) if you use them and provide a simple app that loads these items into MAX.
For RIO I'm not totally sure but I would create 'Getting started' that outlines what settings (IP/DNS etc.) to get the user started.

How can I install a Designer 6.0 pre-configured repository ?

Hi:
I am trying to install Oracle Designer 6.0 to my client machine (Windows 2000) and server machine (Windows NT 4.0), what I did was:
[1]install Designer 6.0 client side on my client machine.
[2]install Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition (version 8.1.7) on the server machine.
[3]configured SQL*Net Client and NET8 on both client and server, and it works fine.
[4]install pre-configured repository using Oracle Designer 6.0 CD #2 (pre-configured repository),but it always gives me such info:
" You have not installed a local copy of Oracle8 Enterprise Edition, therefore, Oracle Designer and ODD D7O4 Preconfigured Repository can not be installed. Please re-install this product after the local
database has been installed."
It seems strange, I did install 8i Enterprise Edition (I even installed Oracle8 Enterprise Edition) before repository, I should have
a local database.
How should I do next ?

Hi Zhu:
Now that you are trying to install Designer, your problem is easy to solve.
I think you should download Oracle Designer 6i Release 4 for Windows from http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/designer/software_index.htm and then do your install again.
The install and the server side setup maybe time consuming, but I am sure you can do it.
You may install Designer 6i Release 4 in the following steps:
(Before do these, uninstall your Designer 6.0 both from your client machine and Windows 2000 server using Oracle Installer)
Step 0: download Oracle Designer 6i Release 4 from OTN to your local directory, say c:\temp and unzip it to c:\temp\Designer6iR4. I will refer this directory as installation media. Make sure that you have equipped your server machine with at least 256MB memory. In my experience, 386MB is better and 512MB is recommended.
Step 1: make sure that one database was created in your installed Oracle 8i. If not, create a database at this step. The parameters of this database should be adjusted according the needs of Designer 6i. You will be told how to do this later.
Step 2: install Designer 6i R4 from the installation media to server machine. Pay attention at this step that you should "select to install both Designer and Repository." It is recommended that Designer should be installed to another new ORACLE_HOME. Don't install it to your Oracle database home. Say, to the ORACLE_HOME "DESDEV".
Some more words need to be said here, I think, about the ORACLE_HOME for Designer. Later if you install Oracle Developer into the same machine as Designer is installed to, both the Oracle Developer and Oracle Designer should be installed into the same ORACLE_HOME. So the name DESDEV stands for "DESigner and DEVeloper are both installed into the same Oracle home named DESDEV". This will be prompted to you just after the installation of Designer was finished.
Step 3: print out "Oracle Repository/Designer Installation Guideh from "Stat->Programs->Oracle Repository 6i Doc - DESDEV". I will refer this material as gManualh from here till the end of our talk.
Step 4: shutdown your database if it is running and then set the parameters to the correct values (required values) according to gCheck the settings in the Oracle initialization parameter fileh in the Manual, Chapter 2 Server-side installation, migration and upgrade.
Step 5: startup the database and then check the parameters. To do this, you need to login to database as user sys and then issue the command gshow parametersh. If all the parameters are correct you may go step 6. You may leave the database running.
Step 6: make sure that the database is running. If not, startup database here. Before proceed to install Designer 6i Server-side, the database should in running status.
Step 7: do the server-sidefs install of Designer 6i (that is, Repository) according to gChapter 2 Server-side installation, migration and upgradeh in Manual. In that part of manual, 17 steps of installation and setup Designer 6i server-side were mentioned. I am sure you can manage that with ease.
Step 8: install Designer 6i client-side into your client machine according to hChapter 1 Client-side installationh in Manual from the installation media.
By the way, I should tell you how much time it takes to accomplish all of these steps IF things were went smoothly: it took about 6 hours for me to have all these steps done. And my machinefs specifications is:
CPU 633MHz
RAM 512MB
Wish you good luck

Unable to edit the MobileXI3BB.jad file for pre-configuration settings

According the Note:1542478 - How to pre-configure connection settings for BusinessObjects XI 3.1 Mobile clients?
We are trying to edit the MobileXI3BB.jad file to avoid the Config seeting from client side.But wonder we are not able to see the below details in our MobileXI3BB.jad:
BOBJ_MOBILE_AUTH_SERVER: <mobile server>
BOBJ_MOBILE_AUTH_PORT: <Port of VAS Service, for example, 11011>
BOBJ_MOBILE_CMS: <cms address>

Can any one help us how to solve this?
Edited by: Srikencha on Jun 3, 2011 8:58 AM

Hi,
you won't see this code,you need to add this code to the MobileXI3BB.jad file
BOBJ_MOBILE_AUTH_SERVER:<mobile server>
BOBJ_MOBILE_AUTH_PORT:<Port of VAS Service, for example, 11011>
BOBJ_MOBILE_CMS:<cms address, for example CMSCOLPAL:6400>
BOBJ_MOBILE_AUTH_METHOD:<authentication type> where <authentication type> could be any one of these values based on your requirements: secEnterprise, secWinAD, secLDAP, secSAPR3.

[Desktop] Pre-configured installs

Any suggestions on how to create pre-configured installers of the same base app? Here's an example of what I mean:
App: This base app connects to a configurable server domain. You could install and use this app just fine.
App for ClientX - This app should connect to serverX, and I want to pre-configure it to do so. It may also have custom configured branding for ClientX.
App for ClientY - This app should connect to serverY, etc.
So I want to be able to give ClientX an installer (or install link) that installs the App pre-configured to connect to their serverX, and I want to give ClientY an installer that connects to their serverY, but I want both to be the same application, built from the same codebase, with the same appID and certificate, and receive the same updates, etc.
I've considered using compile constants to create different AIR app versions with populated strings, which I think would work though a bit clunky, but would result in different versions of the app, when what I really want is to have the SAME version configured differently.
What I am currently doing is making a config file that can be shared, so the main app is installed then the client opens the config file with the app (file association makes this relatively easy, but still very manual feeling.) I would essentially like to automate this, so the end user only needs to run the installer.
The next step would be automating this process, so that when ClientZ purchases the app it uses ClientZ's information to provide an installer configured for ClientZ without manual human intervention. You know, for when my app inevitably gets famous and makes me rich.
Any suggestions?
Thanks all!

Well I'm not quite sure this fits your scenario but maybe (assuming your clients install your app from a website)...
You can use the swf (badge) method of installing AIR apps through the browser: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AIR/1.5/devappsflex/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118666ade46-7e15. html
This would give you the ability to pass in arguments into the install process. http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AIR/1.5/devappsflex/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118676a5d46-8000. html#WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d118666ade46-7e19
Basically you set your air app to "<allowBrowserInvocation>true</allowBrowserInvocation>" and add a listener for the BrowserInvokeEvent(not InvokeEvent)
Do what you want with the parameters (maybe save to a flash shared object) to remember who it was.
Then for distribution, provide a client only page, that passes flash vars into the badge swf, which passes them to the app for install.
I recently used this method in this way. I'm building a video conference app that can send invitations via a URL (videoapp.com?id=abcdefghijklnop).. On that page I have the badge (swf) that recieves that invitation through flash vars. The badge does the install of the AIR app and passes the invitation once it runs.
Note: I had to modify the default badge.swf to include my additional flash vars.
Other than this, I dont know of any way to add arguments to just a regular passed around .air file.

OS pre-instaled CM12 Client, but it can not automatically find site after joining Domain

Background:
we update sccm 2007 to sccm 2012 r2
For New PC, the OS pre-installed with our image by PC Vendor. The image has sccm 2012 client. So when users get the new pc, we only need to join the domain.
After joining the domain, 2012 client will never automatic locate the site code base on AD.
I do some testing.
Install client in the domain pc with parameter SMSSITECODE=AUTO, the site code can be located
Install client in the workgroup pc firstly, the join the domain. Client will never automatic locate the site code base on AD
But If I click Find Site in the Advanced tab of the Configuration Manager Properties in
the Control Panel. The site code can be located.

I'm going to guess you're running 2007 and 2012 side by side, in which case you need to look at your boundary groups. In 2007 you simply had boundaries, in 2012 if you don't make boundary groups and assign boundaries and site site assignment to said
group nothing will happen.
If you have upgraded your infrastructure completely to 2012 but haven't upgraded all of your clients yet ... what you should be seeing is the opposite: 2007 clients wont check into 2012 unless you enable automatic client upgrade. Then there's
if you have overlapping site codes between the two systems.
Better detail See:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg682060.aspx
Assignment scenario
Assignment outcome
You have used automatic site assignment and your System Center 2012 Configuration Manager boundaries overlap with Configuration Manager 2007 boundaries.
The client automatically tries to find a System Center 2012 Configuration Manager site.
The client first checks Active Directory Domain Services and if it finds a System Center 2012 Configuration Manager site published, site assignment succeeds. If this is not successful
(for example, the System Center 2012 Configuration Manager sites is not published or the computer is a workgroup client), the client then checks for site information from its assigned management point.
Note
You can assign a management point to the client during client installation by using the Client.msi property SMSMP=<server_name>.
If both these methods fail, site assignment fails and you must manually assign the client.
You have assigned the System Center 2012 Configuration Manager client by using a specific site code rather than automatic site assignment, and mistakenly specified a site code for a Configuration
Manager 2007 site.
Site assignment fails and you must manually reassign the client to a System Center 2012 Configuration Manage

Changing the configurations of pre-configured BOM on a Sales Order

Hello experts,
Our client's business is similar to OEC Computers. However, I am not able to map the following business scenario:
They sell servers to customers however, it is unusual that the client buys the pre-configured model as provided by the principal. therefore, as per the specific requirements of customer they change the configuration of the server.
For e.g. the pre-configured model has 2GB of RAM however, the customer wants to replace the the 2GB RAM with a 4GB RAM.
The replacement is important to track as Inventory will have an affect on it.
Please advise the possible solutions.
Regards

Hi Adeel,
At the time of Production order you chane the 4GB RAM Instead of 2GB.
Traking of the Replacement item you use some Additional query report to be use.
*Close the thread if issue solved.

Failsafe method to create NetInstall image of pre-configured MacOSX

Hi All
I am trying to create NetInstall image of a pre-configured MacOSX install(mid-2011 mac mini) in this case. Here is my workflow:
1. Setup base OSX Mountain lion
2. Do all updates and configure System Preferences and Finder Preferences as desired
3. Install all desired software to be packaged with the system
4. Boot into target mode and then use a second mac mini running Casper Composer to create a .dmg of the OS.
5. Copy the finished .dmg to ML Server
6. Try to use System Image utility to create a NetInstall image that other mac minis can then use as base install
I havent had any success so far creating a valid .nbi folder I can use(and that works) for re-deployment unless I use Casper Admin and Casper Imaging to manage this. The reason I am trying to get away from using them is that the differnece between buying a $70 Casper Composer(or using the free Disk Utility) and buying the full Casper Suite is considerable. Also, my understanding of System Image Utility is that:
1. It should be possible to build a customised image of OSX from base with packages and coonfiguration added but it doesnt seem to work
2. NetInstall is the only viable option for what we want to do as NetBoot presumes you will boot off the image each time you start up(which is not what we want - we want the ability to clone systems and from bare metal if necessary) and NetRestore flatly doesnt seem to work from .dmgs.
Here is what I have found:
a) I can create NetInstall images from a mounted downloaded Apple-provided OSX Installer that work but as soon as I put customisations in them, the customisations fail.
b) By default NetInstall is greyed out when you mount the dmg and use it as a source in System image utility. Suggestions online are to change the Source to use a New variable and then point it back at the same location. NetInstall is then available. If you try to create a .nbi from this, you get an error saying that there isnt enough space on the target drive - the uncompressed dmg is about 7GB max and there is a spare 60-70Gb free on the drive I am trying to create the image on.
c) I have tried manually creating the .nbi folder but the instructions I found at http://support.apple.com/kb/TA21133 for doing this are outdated as they apply to ppc firmware and although I suspect the technique will still work, I cant work out which elements of the i386 folder I need to retain/move. Copying the i386 folder from another working Netinstall folder doesnt help.
d) I found some links suggesting that NetInstall only worked when the OSX versions were identical so I tried to run the System Image Utility on the Mac where the dmg was created. Here I get two errors:
     i) If I just run the NetInstall using the default source, it errors saying an unknown error has occurred and get the following in the log:
Workflow Started (2013-08-21 11:39:45 +0100)

     ii) If I change the source to the .dmg file and unmount it quickly to avoid any file locks, the installer goes further and seems to almost finish but then gives the following error(just appending the final bits):

Failed to create image from restore source.

Stopping image creation.
Image creation failed.
Anyone have any idea how I can get around these issues?

First, let's define the various image types...
NetInstall:
A network based image which, when booted into, presents the user with a Mac OS installer. Functionality is effectively the same as running the Install Mac OS X application locally on a machine.
NetRestore:
A network based image which, when booted into, uses Apple Software Restore to replace the contents of a volume with a previously imaged volume.
NetBoot:
A network based image which, when booted into, acts just like a locally booted hard drive, except no changes are written to the disk. Each time the client boots into the NetBoot volume, the system is "reset" to the original state.
As defined by your workflow, you are trying to create NetRestore images.
As piperspace has noted, you need to start with the latest OS Install application. Starting with an older OS which has been updated to the latest will not work.
Creating NetRestore images from other disk images doesn't work because you need to have the Recovery Partition available. As both chicster and piperspace have noted, the way to do this is to image the volume directly.
Many preferences are "ByHost", which means that they are keyed to the UUID of the machine they are set on. To make those settings transfer to the new machines, you may need to use the "Apply System Configuration Settings" action and check the "Change ByHost preferences to match..." option.

"Poor Signal", "Coverage hole pre alarm for client" after changing from Autonomous to Lightweight infrastruture

Dears,
I use to have wireless infrastructure based on autonomous APs 1142n, auth w/ 802.1x and everything was fine.
My Company decided to implement WLC 5508, and I changed only 2nd floor (2 APs) as lightweight and implement WLC over there as pilot testing...
Now All persons here (around 35 clients) are complaining about disconnections, poor signal...
Both APs are distant each other maximim of 15 meters... Our office has a medium open spaced room, with (20 X 15 meters) only 2 "Pilaster" in the middle of the room.

Actually I am using both APs as lightweight in 2nd floor.
How about this power level? where I can find those parameters ?
At 3rd floor all APs are autonomous, I accessed one of them and find this parameter

Proxies pre configuration

hi all,
i am doing pre configuration of abap client proxies by refering this blog
/people/vijaya.kumari2/blog/2006/01/26/how-do-you-activate-abap-proxies
here i am unable to create HTTP connection in the business system.
i got ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED error

ABAP Proxy:
How to enable the ABAP Proxy between the ECC and SAP XI.
The Errors I have divided into 2 parts
1.     If my proxy is looking into the Exchange Profile on SLD.
2.     If the Proxy is looking into the SPROXSET table
If my proxy is looking into the Exchange Profile on SLD:
Description: Proxy are the outside in communication between the SAP R/3 and SAP XI, proxy cab be used when my SAP WebAS is 6.20, it is an adapter less communication, because the the Application system has the WebAS 6.20 has an internal engine which will convert the message into XML and then this XML message is sent to XI using the HTTP protocol.
This blog explains how to create the ABAP proxy:
/people/vijaya.kumari2/blog/2006/01/26/how-do-you-activate-abap-proxies
What I am trying to focus is how the connection is getting established and what all happens when you run the SPROXY transaction code on Application System.
We use SPROXY to read the Interfaces from Integration Repository in application system, then we are creating the proxy either client or server.
When we run SPROXY the application system will try to find the the IR to get the interfaces on which the PROXY can be generated.
It gets the information about the IR in Exchange Profile which is present in the SLD of XI.
When SPROXY is run on the application system, the following program will be running.
     Report: SPROX_CHECK_IFR_ADDRESS check if the connection to the exchange profile is working and the parameters are set.
     Report: SPROX_CHECK_HTTP_COMMUNICATION check if the HTTP communication of the system is running.
     Report: SPROX_CHECK_IFR_RESPONSE checks if the connection to the Integreation builder is running correclty
     Report: SPROX_CHECK_IFR_CONNECTION checks if the data coming from the Integreation Builder can be correclty interpreted.
If you get any error while running the reports here are the descriptions:
Firstly check the SLDCHECK is working:
Since the applications communicate with the SLD to get their own business system and integration server information the connection to the SLD need to be running from all business systems. Use the transaction SLDCHECK to check whether this is the case. If SLDCHECK is throwing the error then cross check the SLDAPICUST transaction code whether is pointing to the correct SLD.
Report: SPROX_CHECK_IFR_CONNECTION checks if the data coming from the Integreation Builder can be correclty interpreted. You will get the error "Integreation Builder data cannot be understood when you run the report SPROX_CHECK_IFR_CONNECTION.
Make sure the following steps are done to fix this:
Role of the Business system: Application System
Corresponding Integreation server: dest:
<SM59 Http connection created>
Also check the following RFC are working fine.
LCRSAPAPI
SAPSLDAPI
Also in RZ70 TC you should point to the SLD.
This 2 RFC are Registered Programs, if this RFC is working then your Application system can ping to the SLD where the exchange Profile is present.
The Report SPROX_CHECK_HTTP_COMMUNICATION will check whether the application system all the HTTP services activated or not. To activate all HTTP services go to SICF and activate it.
Else you will get error ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED.
To check the HTTP service is active or not check SMICM click GOTOService
Create the HTTP connection from SAP R/3 to XI.
SM59-- Create RFC destination of type H when all the HTTP services are active then the connection will work fine.
If the RFC destination of type H is giving error ICM_HTTP_CONNECTION_FAILED and all the HTTP services are active then
Goto the SICF and make sure all the Proxy are disabled.
So once these things are maintained then the ABAP Proxy will work fine.

SCCM 2012 R2 Configuration Manager Client Package - stuck "In Progress"

Hi Team; I’m having 2 issues with SCCM 2012 R2:
Issue 1: I'm having a strange issue with the default XXX00002 package - "Configuration Manager Client Package",
it will not deploy to the Secondary Site DP. The console is saying "In Progress" - below is the output from the
distmgr.log file.

Issue 2: I'm trying to deploy a couple of Packages/Applications using SCCM 2012 R2 running on Win2K8 R2 with no luck, knowing that I could install the packages
on a test VM “in the DataCenter site”, but when trying to deploy the packages to production PC “in the Office Site”,
the status is packages deployment compliance stuck at 0%
Infrastructure:
3 SCCM servers: CAS, PRI & SEC. Both CAS and PRI are in the DataCenter site, and SEC is in the Office site. The office site has several IP subnets.
Boundaries are configured through Forest Discovery “IP Ranges and AD Sites” since that the AD site should contain all the IP subnets that the AD site contains, Boundaries groups are also configured and a site reference
server is configured for each group respectively.
A OU based Collection has been configured that contains 13 PC "the collection contains the PCs that the packages should be installed.
Packages/Applications are configured correctly since that I could successfully deploy the packages to the test VM which is on the same subnet as the CAS and the PRI servers "the DataCenter subnet". The issue
is that I can't deploy the packages to production PCs in the Office subnet!
Firewall rules are configured and applied via GP, and I even turned Windows Firewall off, and still nothing! I tried to manually initiate Computer Policy download via the SCCM GUI and via a script, still no luck!
I tried configuring IP Subnet Boundaries, still no luck!!
Here are the last 2 lines in the LocationServices.log of a client PC at the Office Site:
<![LOG[MPLIST requests are throttled for 00:00:44]LOG]!><time="14:47:00.766+240" date="03-17-2014" component="LocationServices" context="" type="2" thread="5776"

It looks like clients in the Office Site can’t connect to the DP/MP of the Secondary Site server which is also a DP.
While on the PC that the application was installed on I see the folowing in the LocationService.log:

Is there something wrong with the Distribution point on the Secondary Site server?
Please help…
Thanks..

Update:
I fixed the issue with the default XXX00002 package - "Configuration Manager Client Package", it will not deploy to the Secondary Site DP. I did that through "Update Distribution Points" option, and after a while the status was 100%.
However; the second issue is still unsolved...
Please help..
