3 server farm, had the WFE go down, restored with old snapshot, use APP server settings to restore IIS?

All right.
So I have a 3 server DEV farm: WFE, APP, SQL
The WFE went down, and had to restore with a month-old snapshot after numerous configuration changes.
Files: Can I copy the C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories to my WFE and get it running?
IIS: recreate sites based on APP server, pointing to copied over VirtualDirectories locations?
What else?
Thanks,
Scott

SharePoint does not support VM snapshots. It is a really, really bad idea and usually easier to just build a new farm member.
You can use PowerShell to restore IIS, e.g.:
$wa = Get-SPWebApplication http://webAppUrl
$wa.ProvisionGlobally()
But to be honest, it depends on what exactly you've lost, etc. Also like a really good idea to flush the Config Cache on the restored farm member.
Again, not supported!

  • In ppro 6.5 had the ability to set motion with free form using the handles can't see where in ppro cc it can be done

    In Adobe 6.5 I was able to use freeform motion path with distortion of the graphic to fly in the graphic can't see how to do that in Adobe cc premiere Pro CC I called up support and they said it's been transferred to after effects is that true?

    PPro. 6.5 or the good old Premiere 6.5 The Premiere 6.5  simple motion has been updated in the programs monitor and has more options  and styles now. You can also use the Effects control and use keyframes. One can also use various effects like perspective and more. It is all about your creativity. So the 6.5 motion is in the programs monitor.
    Double click on the video in the program window and you will see the handles. I prefer playing with figures in the motion control window with the x, y, z axis. One can even do 3d motion in that window

  • ...Not alone with problems on "Mail" app server connection, iMap!!!!  I believe Apple is strengthening their server farm.  Has been out for over a week; they were wise to have the iCloud also in the cloud.

    Not alone with problems on "Mail" app server connection, iMap!!!!  I believe Apple is strengthening their server farm.  Has been out for over a week; they were wise to have the iCloud also in the cloud.  Be patient!

    Have you considered the possibility that the third party fan software might itself be implicated in the issue, theosib (or perhaps something else introduced at about that time?).
    My inclination in a situation like this would be to back up your drive to an external, wipe the drive, and do a clean installation. At the very least I'd try an archive and install.
    Do you have plenty of free space on the drive? Once you get things down below the last 10 to 20% things can get hairy at times, and may not be fixed as a result of simply freeing up some room, as free space fragmentation is likely to have set in.
    As far as RAM goes, either "Rember" - http://www.kelleycomputing.net:16080/rember/ or, better still, but less user friendly, "memtest" - http://www.memtestosx.org/ does a much better job of checking your RAM than the AHT. Still takes a while to run for a thorough test, but much quicker than the approach you are planning on using.
    You might also want to use "Activity Monitor" to check for any applications with progressive "memory leaks" or that are acting as CPU hogs, given your symptoms

  • Is there a  requirement to restart the JMS/Weblogc Server everytime when the DB goes down?

    Question:
    When the Database is shutdown gracefully everything was fine.
    But when the Database is brought down with shutdown abort the MDB consumer will never consume messages from the topic again. And we need to restart the WebLogic Server in order to get the messages consumed again.
    So is there a requirement to restart the JMS/Weblogc Server everytime when the DB goes down? If not, what type of failures will require the JMS/WLS restart?

    On a DB failure, a WL JDBC store service will make a brief attempt to reconnect before shutting itself down along with any services that depend on the store. 
    It isn't necessary to restart the entire WebLogic Server JVM to bring the affected service(s) back if you can use the Automatic Service Migration feature.  ASM can automatically restart a failed service on a different WL Server in the same cluster, and/or can try a restart-in-place for the service if the service's original host WL Server JVM is still running.   The Automatic Service Migration (pdf) white-paper has a thorough discussion of this area.
    In addition to ASM, there's also a "whole server migration" option that can automatically restart or migrate an entire WL server.

  • I have never had the issues I am having with the latest update to Yosemite. Is there a fix/update for this?

    I have never had the issues I am having with the latest update to Yosemite. Is there a fix/update for this?

    For what? It works fine for me on three different computers. If you want a fix for something then be more specific.
    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.
    5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver

    Hi all,
    How to get connection pooling with out application server and tomcat also?
    What is the difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver supported connection pooling?
    Regards,
    Murali

    maybe the performance of App server pool is better than the JDBC pool,
    for you don't know wether the implementation of the JDBC interface is good or bad.

    As long as the apps and ibooks are still available in the store, and you use the same iTunes account as you originally used to buy them, then you should be able to re-download them for free : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2519

    If you are the original owner of the phone and know the Apple ID and password that were used to activate it originally, and if you have an existing backup to restore from, you can force it into recovery mode (which will completely erase it) and restore it as explained here: If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support.  When you do you will encounter activation lock, and will have to provide the ID and password used to activate it originally in order to activate it again.  If you can't, you won't be able to activate and use it.

    The restore from backup will restore the pictures you took with the iPod up to the time the backup was made.  Any pictures taken after the the backup was made will be lost.

  • Why use app server and EJB?

    we have a project about Component-based Library for Business Information Systems.
    We have chosen Point-Of-Sales System as the type of our system.
    why do we need to use app server and EJB?
    Hope can have replies soon. Thanks so much!
    regards
    beginning of EJB

    Well, you don't need to. You might want to because transaction management is important for point-of-sales and app server/EJB gives you that for 'almost nothing'.

  • Is it possible to share an aperture library with different users using osx server.

    is it possible to share an aperture library with different users using osx server.

    Not really.  You should not be sharing an Aperture library over a network.  It's not designed for that and you'll likely corrupt your library at some point.
