System Image Utility 10.6.3 - fails when creating NetBoot image from DVD

System Image Utility 10.6.3, trying to create a NetBoot image from a bundled installer disc that came with a 27" Late 2009 iMac (iMac11,1). Image creation fails consistently, since the image that System Image Utility creates is only 901M.
Anyone see this before?

Hi Don, here's my guess...
The 901 number is additional space added in the scripts. This indicates that the source image size was 0.
Since you are making a NetBoot from Install media, under the covers the installer process is being run to create a NetBoot volume. The media shipped with the 27" iMac is most likely CPU specific and thus the installation fails because you are trying to create the image (i.e. install the system) on an unsupported CPU.
In order to produce a NetBoot from the install media, you'll have to create it on the 27" iMac.
Hi Brian,
Thanks for the response. This makes perfect sense. I'll give this a try and shout back!
Thanks,

  • Can the 1841 router boot from system image from usbdisk?

    I have a cisco1841 router with 32M CF card installed.
    Now , i want boot a system image larger 32M from usbdisk.
    First  i insert the 128M usb flash disk to the 1841 router and format it, then i can see the device from dir command.
    Second copy the larger ios image from tftp to the usb disk and successed,i can see the image with " dir usbflash0:" command.
    Third  i use this command "boot system " ,but there is no selection of  "usbflash0: "
    Does someone tell me that can the cisco 1841 router  boot the system image from usb disk when reboot the router.
    by the way the  System Bootstrap, Version 12.4(13r)T

    I have test that ， the 1841 router can boot from usb disk。
    but there is a problem that when the router reload.
    before the second " program load complete.........................."
    there is about 3 minutes to wait.
    So , the router boot from usb disk take long time than from CF card.
    when use usb disk ,the hole progress of reloading the router will take about 300S.
    It's too long .
    Does something wrong?

    If you then click on that little triangle gadget you get this:
    A temporary solution is to CTRL- or RIGHT-click on the document file, navigate to the Open With item, and select from the sub-menu.

  • When creating a PDF from a PPT or Keynote application on a Mac using Acrobat X Pro, how do I ensure it can be opened on a PC? Do I need to save as a particular version of Acrobat?

    When creating a PDF from a PPT or Keynote application on a Mac using Acrobat X Pro, how do I ensure it can be opened on a PC? Do I need to save as a particular version of Acrobat?

    The system was not my own, it was on a PC belonging to the school where I teach. The error message referred to Acrobat 9.0, so I assume that the problem is to do with the version on which the file was created being more recent than that on which I attempeted to open it.

  • Can I import images from DVD to my HDD through bridge (I have Win 7

    Hi,
    I'm using Win 7 (and also have Bridge on Mac OS X). I'd like to import images from DVD to my HDD through Adobe Bridge. But I can't find the option to import from DVD in Bridge (either in Win 7 or Mac). My DVD drive on my Win machine is external while I have the regular internal DVD drive on my Macbook Pro. I'm trying to import images from DVD to HDD through Bridge. Go through the first round of select/reject through Bridge and then take them to LR for further edits.
    I currently copy them from DVD drive to a USB pen drive. And then using the Bridge import dialog (when I plug in the USB again) copy them to my HDD. I do this becuase I also need to batch rename my files, add metadata and keywords during import. The simple copy/move function won't allow these additions and so I have to resort to this workaround of DVD to USB to HDD (thru Bridge). If I can import directly from DVD through bridge, it'll save me quite some time.
    Look forward to assistance pls.
    Thx,
    Chinmoy

    I feel a bit silly now. For 2 days I struggled and then posted my Q.
    After posting the Q, I figured it out in about 15 minutes.
    Insert DVD.
    Open Br
    Navigate to DVD
    Select all images
    Right Click - Batch Rename
    Choose Destination Path and New file name.
    And go!
    If you've had the same problem I did, hope this helps.

  • When creating a PDF from the scanner, it only scans one side despite the settings.

    When creating a PDF from the scanner, it only scans one side. I am using a fi-7160 that supports scanning both sides at once. The Scanner software is configured to scan both sides, and so are the presets in Adobe Acrobat Pro. I've only gotten the setting to work with the Custom Scan setting. Has anyone else had this problem, and what is the solution?
    Additionally, the software bundled with the scanner with automatically omit the back sides of a page if it is blank. I am scanning large files with occasional double sided pages. Is there a way to avoid having to manually delete blank pages when creating a new PDF from the scanner? It takes twice as long because I'm using the OCR stabilization.

    Hi anne,
    Could you please let me know what Acrobat and OS version are you using.
    Does this happen in case of any particular PDF or all PDF files?
    Try repairing Acrobat and then again check.
    Hope to get your response.

  • Creating a new connection when creating a report from scratch

    I've searched all around but I haven't managed to find any samples or forum posts that show how to create a connection when creating a report from scratch via RCAPI.  All of the code that I've found has been aimed at replacing the ConnectionInfo for an existing connection.  I figured that it would work something like this:
    m_crystalReport.setReportAppServer(ReportClientDocument.inprocConnectionString);
    m_crystalReport.newDocument();
    IConnectionInfo ci = new ConnectionInfo();
    PropertyBag propertyBag = new PropertyBag();
    propertyBag.put("Use JDBC", true);
    propertyBag.put("Connection URL", "jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=" + DB_NAME);
    propertyBag.put("Database Class Name", "net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver");
    propertyBag.put("Database DLL", "crdb_jdbc.dll");
    ci.setAttributes(propertyBag);
    m_connection = new Connection();
    m_connection.setConnectionInfo(ci);
    m_connection.open();
    but this produces a NullPointerException within Connection.open().  If I leave the connection closed but add it to the report via DatabaseController.addConnection() then I just get the exception later on when I try to add tables using the connection.
    Can anyone give me any pointers please?
    Thanks,
    Rich.

    Just in case anyone else runs into this, I managed to fix it by leaving the connection closed and then using the connection info instead of the connection when creating tables, eg:
         ITable t = new Table();
         t.setAlias(v.getAlias());
         t.setName(v.getView().getName());
         t.setConnectionInfo(m_connectionInfo);
         getDatabaseController().addTable(t, null);

  • Userexit or BADI to change service price when create PO reference from PR

    Hi,
    I need userexit or Badi to change the gross price ( ESLL-TBTWR ) when create PO reference from PR.  Currently , when I do this it will recalculate the gross price based on the service master and ignoring whatever the price put in PR.  Could anyone tell me userexit or Badi that would allow me to change the price when i create PO from PR via ME21N.
    Thanks,
    Gilbert

    Hi Gilbert,
    You can try using Function Exit EXIT_SAPLMLSP_030 of Enhancment SRVESLL.
    This Function Exit has ESLL data as changing parameter.
    But this Function Exit is called from a number of transaction. So do put in correct checks (like sy-tcode or sy-ucomm) before substituting any values. If proper checks are not put in then values may be substituted when this function exit is called from other transactions (like tcode "ML81N").
    Hope this will help.

  • War file created in Eclipse works, but fails when created by Ant

    Hi,
    I am having trouble getting my flex war file to work when I create it using Ant, even though the same war works fine when I create it from my Eclipse Export War function. This is a critical problem and any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    I have a working installation of LCDS running under JBoss 4.0.5 (in a CENTOS (Red Hat) environment). I have implemented a datatier in Java to interact with my PostgreSQL 8.x database. The Java code, plus the necessary flex jars and xml files and some mxml test programs, are all in an Eclipse J2EE project that I created from the flex samples.war file. It all works fine when I use Eclipse to create a WAR from the project and deploy it in JBoss. My problem is this: When I create a WAR piece by piece using Ant, then deploy it to JBoss, that WAR does not work. The error I get is this:
    javax.servlet.ServletException: Invalid Configuration: see previous failures. flex.webtier.util.ServiceUtil.setupFlexService(ServiceUtil.java:55) flex.webtier.server.j2ee.MxmlServlet.init(MxmlServlet.java:57), etc.
    When I look at the log I see this problem:
    "You have more than one version of 'org.apache.commons.logging.Log' visible, which is not allowed.",
    but that error is in the server log even when I use the good WAR file.
    I have compared the two wars but cannot find any substantial difference between them.
    Thanks in advance!

    Have you tried enabling debug level logging and removing the category filters in services-config.xml? It should show all the destinations being created, and if any are failing. To get the maximum level of log detail, something like this should work:
    ><logging>
    >
    > <target class="flex.messaging.log.ConsoleTarget" level="Debug">
    >
    > <properties>
    >
    > <prefix>[Flex] </prefix>
    >
    > <includeDate>false</includeDate>
    >
    > <includeTime>false</includeTime>
    >
    > <includeLevel>false</includeLevel>
    >
    > <includeCategory>false</includeCategory>
    >
    > </properties>
    >
    > </target>
    >
    > </logging>
    Have a check that your remoting destinations are shown starting correctly for both WAR files, and see if there are any messages in the log that might be relevant.

  • Disk Utility will sometimes refuse to make image from dvd disk

    Our company puts disk images of media collections on a central server so that they are available to all the staff. But, recently I keep finding disks that refuse to be copied as a disk image. The Disk Utility runs for just a few seconds rather that the usual 20-30 minutes and the final disk image is only a couple of KB of data. I've tried the disks on multiple computers with the same results. All our macs have the same OS so I've been unable to test if this is an issue with the current OSX.
    I thought there might have been some sort of data protection put on the discs, but was surprised when disks from the same collection of media would have different results.
    These are not Video dvds, but rather standard UDF data discs, being copied to a network drive.
    I'm able to manually create an empty image and copy in the data but this takes much longer.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I was having similar problems, although I don't think my issues was related to a double-layer DVD. What worked for me was selecting File > New > Disk Image from Folder. Select the DVD in the file open/save dialog with the same options you used before (e.g., DVD/CD master, etc).

  • List data validation failed when creating a new list item but does not fail when editing an existing item

    Dear SharePoint Experts,
    Please help.
    Why does my simple formula work in Excel but not-work in SharePoint?
    Why does this formula...
    =IF([Request Type]="Review",(IF(ISBLANK([Request Date]),FALSE,TRUE)),TRUE)
    ...work in Excel but fail when I try to use it in SharePoint?
    The intent of this formula is the following...
    If the field "Request Type" has the value "Review" and the field "Request Data" is blank then show FALSE, otherwise show TRUE.
    SharePoint saves the formula, but when a list item is saved where the formula is implemented, (under List Settings, List Validation), SharePoint does not, say anything other than that the formula failed.
    Note that the "list data validation failed" error only happens when I am creating a new item-- the formula above works just fine when one is trying to Save on the edit form. 
    Can you help?
    Thanks.
    -- Mark Kamoski

    Dear Jason,
    I appreciate your efforts.
    However, it seems to me that this statement of yours is not correct...
    "If it meet the validation formula, then you can new or edit the item, otherwise, it will throw the 'list data validation failed' error, it is by design".
    I believe this is NOT the answer for the following reasons.
    When I create a new item and click Save, the validation error is "list data validation failed".
    When I edit an existing item and click Save, the validation error is "my custom error message" and this is, I believe, the way it needs to work each time.
    I think, at the core, the error my formula does not handle some condition of null or blank or other default value.
    I tried a forumla that casts the date back to a string, and then checked the string for a default value, but that did not work.
    I tried looking up the Correlation ID in the ULS when "list data validation failed" occurs, but that gave no useful information because, even though logging was set to Verbose, the stack trace in the error log was truncated and did not given any
    good details.
    However, it seems to me that SharePoint 2013 is not well-suited for complex validation rules, because...
    SharePoint 2013 list-level validation (NOT column-level validation) allows only 1 input for all the multi-field validation formulas in a given list-- so, if I had more than 1 multi-field validation rule to implement on a given list, it would need to be packed
    into that single-line-of-code forumla style, like Excel does. That is not practice to write, debug, or maintain.
    SharePoint 2013 list-level validation only allows 1 block of text for all such multi-field validation rules. So that will not work because I would have something like "Validation failed for one or more of the following reasons-- withdrawal cannot exceed
    available balance, date-of-birth cannot be after date-of-death,... etc". That will not work for me.
    The real and awesome solution would simply be enhancing SP 2013 so that column-level validation forumlas are able to reference other columns.
    But, for now, my workaround solution is to use JavaScript and jQuery, hook the onclick handler on the Save button, and that works good. The only problem, is that the jQuery validation rules run before any of the column-level rules created  with OOTB
    SP 2013. So, in some cases, there is an extra click for the enduser.
    Thanks,

  • Selecting an object fails when creating a new dashboard using the 'New Dashboard and Widget Wizard'

    Hi,
    I am using SCOM 2012 SP1
    I have recently been experiencing an issue when trying to create a new dashboard using the wizard. I get to the step where you select a group or object to add to the  Scope and Counters section. When I try to search for a particular object such as a
    port or interface it times out and returns an error. The error is shown below:
    Please provide the following information to the support engineer if you have to contact Microsoft Help and Support :

    It appears to be complaining about internal resources, but we have not experienced this issue before and both the management and SQL servers have plenty of resource. The databases are held on a seperate dedicated sql server and I have noticed that when I
    try to search for the object, the sqlservr.exe process immediately consumes 50% CPU while the query is running. As soon as it ends (errors) the sqlservr process drops back to a reasonable number.
    No changes have been made to either the management server or sql server. We were able to create dashboards one day, but then recieved this error the next.
    Has anyone else seen this issue? or can anyone explain what is happening?
    Many thanks

    Hi,
    Asposted earlier,hadt he same problem
    when creating a Dashboard widget type
    State.
    Ones olution I found for this was as follows:
    When creating the State widget,the option
    to specify the criterion I left blank
    and finished the creation of the dashboard.
    With that managed to solve the problem.Of course this
    is not the solution, or the root cause
    of the problem.

    the ultimate solution and why such behavior,I post

  • Disk Images from DVD-R

    Today my attempt to make an image from a home-made (& finalized) DVD-R failed with an "input/output error", which was presented when Disk Utility had finished reading the DVD-R into memory. (The DVD does also play fine on this G5.)
    I was surprised, as I've done this just once before with success.
    Is it possible that this is in fact due to the recording mode originally used to make the DVD-R? I'm not sure whether I used SP (2-hour) or LP (4-hr) for the one that worked, but I do know that I had used LP for the DVD that I've tried to make an image from tomight. I don't really want to have to sit through all the tapes to make the 4 hours again onto two new 2-hr DVDs
    Hopefully someone will know if this is the problem, in which case I shall resign myself to the task, but if there's any chance something else is at fault - well, I look forward to your advice!
    Many thanks,
    Blackie

    Yes, I did finalize it in the Panasonic, thanks, Ron. However, I note that I did have some difficulty - it failed the first time, but was successful the second time.
    When attempting to "create image", initially I left the format selection on whatever it defaulted to. I then tried again with read/write.
    I've just tried "replicating" your
    issue (using a disc recorded from television on our
    own Panasonic "standalone" in "LP" mode).
    Brilliant, thanks - at least that clears that part of my question up
    Any possibility that the disc you were trying to
    copy from is slightly dirty or damaged? You might
    want to simply repeat the attempt after giving the
    disc a gentle clean.
    Ah, now this sounds worth following up, especially given my comment at the start... So, I shan't try using DVD master, but I shall try cleaning and having another go with the default setting.
    As I understand it, my Toast Lite won't do DVD-Video, and I've not yet had a need for DVDxDV though I have heard many good things about it, for when I find I do have the need So in the short term, if I can get the process to work via Disk Utility for this one DVD, I'll stick with that
    So, I have something to try before I mark my question as solved, but I think we are probably getting there!
    A thousand thanks,
    Blackie
