A newbie trying to do a VDI using Hyper-V

Hi team,
We are a small company with 150 PCs and we would like to try the VDI using Hyper-V in Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter.
We would like to go with a pilot of 20 people for now. We bought a brand new server HP ProLiant DL380p Gen8 Server and a new Disk array HP StorageWorks Disk Enclosure D2600. We have already AD (2008 R2) installed on another Server.
The users will be using thier PCs and the VM storage location should be in the new HP Disk D2600 recently bought.
Could you please let me know what do you think? What are the best practices? What is the best approch to start this project? What would you do? What are the steps? Is there any way for the 20 people to keep thier OS and data and move to Virtual without any
impact? I heard about something called Physical to Virtual?
I'm new into this and don't know how/where to start. Thank you very much for any information that you could provide
Thanks, Annie

Hi Annie,
Sounds like you have a good plan and your work cut out for you to get this implemented. Starting with a pilot of 20 users is a good way to start.
Here is a walk through of how to setup VDI, you will need to have Hyper-V already installed on the computer. http://blogs.technet.com/b/canitpro/archive/2013/04/25/step-by-step-deploying-virtual-desktops-with-windows-server-2012.aspx
This should give you a good starting point. I don't have any experience in using the HP Disk D2600, you may want to look at HP forums, or call them direct to ask for how to set that up.
Good luck on your implementation.

Newbie trying to connect to Oracle using ojdbc14

Hey Programming Pals;
I am trying to connect to a remote oracle data base.
I have installed oracle client (allowing me to be able to connect with PL/SQL developer).
Now I need to connect with JDBC.
I down loaded ojdbc14 and put it in my tomcat bin directory.
I than made an entry in path and in classpath to this jar file.
Here is the code I am using to try and connect with:
try
{ DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
catch (ClassNotFoundException c)
System.out.println("Could not load the ODBC driver:" + c);
Here is the error I am getting:
An error occurred at line: 38 in the jsp file: /jsp/form.jsp
Generated servlet error:
[javac] Compiling 1 source file
D:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\work\Standalone\localhost\jhtp5\jsp\form_jsp.java:85: package ojdbc14.oracle.jdbc.driver does not exist
DriverManager.registerDriver(new ojdbc14.oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
I browsed through the jar and verified this path exists. Why can't the jvm find it?
Here are my system variables:
CLASSPATH:
.;D:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\bin\ojdbc14.jar
PATH:
D:\Program Files\Apache Group\Tomcat 4.1\bin\ojdbc14.jar;D:\ora92\bin;C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.3.1\bin;C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.1.8\bin;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem
Any help would be appreciated.
Luke

Tomcat doesn't use the System classpath.
Put the ojdbc14.jar file in the web-inf/lib directory of your web application, restart Tomcat, and try again.
Cheers,
evnafets

Newbie trying to convert this to use numbers from excel

I am fairly new at this and have not worked with numbers at all but the problem I have is that I do not have Excel on all my Mac's and this needs to work with Numbers.
it is a basic copy and paste based on a particular tab in Safari and another in numbers
ie.. i want to copy content from a specific safaritab() to a specific tab in numbers by name.. this works perfectly with using excel (took forever for me to piece together) but I am struggling to convert to use in numbers instead. any help would be most appreciated.
this is the working code for using excel that i wish to convert to use numbers instead.
#Code begin
tell application "Safari" to launch
tell application "Safari" to activate
useSafariTab(3)
copyDataB()
tell application "Microsoft Excel"
activate
activate object workbook "SpreadSheetA"
activate object sheet "DesiredTabName"
clear range range "A:Z"
select cell "a2"
end tell
pasteDataA()
on useSafariTab(a)
tell application "Safari"
set thisTab to tab a of window 1
set current tab of window 1 to thisTab
delay 1
end tell
end useSafariTab
on copyDataB()
tell application "System Events"
delay 1
keystroke "a" using {command down}
delay 3
keystroke "c" using {command down}
delay 5
end tell
end copyDataB
on pasteDataA()
tell application "Microsoft Excel"
activate
activate object workbook "SpreadSheetA"
delay 2
end tell
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "v" using {command down}
delay 5
end tell
end pasteDataA
#Code end

In Numbers the hierarchy is document, sheet, table, range whereas in Excel the table isn't required. So for pasteDataA() try this:
on pasteDataA()
tell application "Numbers"
tell document "SpreadSheetA.numbers"
tell sheet "DesiredTabName"
tell table 1 -- or table name if you have one
set selection range to cell 2 of column 1
delay 2
end tell
end tell
end tell
end tell
tell application "Numbers"
activate
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "v" using {command down}
delay 2
end tell
end tell
end pasteDataA
I didn't clear the range first but assume you will be able to work that out. Remember you need to specify the table when you do that.
SG
P.S. Note use of the .numbers suffix when specifying the document, if named. Otherwise you can use document 1 or front document.

Newbie: trying to open a database using SQLPLUS, ORA errors

Hi!
Installed 10g (and latest patch) on Suse10.2. When I try to startup the database using SQLPLUS I get this:
Redo Buffers 2932736 bytes
ORA-00205: error in identifying control file, check alert log for more info

Any ideas on whats causing this problem? I heve used google ALOT but have not found any good answers....

Hi!
Well, Oracle was not the user, but I have changed that now. But now I get this instead:
SQL> startup
ORACLE instance started.
Total System Global Area 100663296 bytes
Fixed Size 1260288 bytes

ORA-00202: control file: '/opt/oradata/oracle/control01.ctl'
So, I found some info about creating a controlfile, but that seems quite advanced...any suggestions?

My iphone 4S wont allow me to restore a bckup of icloud it has just rebooted the os and for over 24 hours i have been trying to fix it i use this phone for my job so i need help

My iphone 4S wont allow me to restore a bckup of icloud it has just rebooted the os and for over 24 hours i have been trying to fix it i use this phone for my job so i need help. when i try to restore it says "Your iphone could not be activated becuase the activation server is unavailable, If the problom presests goto apple.com/support" It has done this for 27 hours now PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!

- Connect the iPod to the computer and see if iTunes sees it. If it sees it try to get the photos off the iPod.
- Next let the battery fully drain. It will likely take days. After charging for at least an hour try again
- Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Sharing an Apple ID is never recommended for these reasons.
They can create their own: http://appleid.apple.com and you can add them at the addresses they use for their ID.
Sharing an Apple ID is not recommended because all of your data gets merged and when it gets deleted from one device, it deletes from them all, such as Contacts.

I'm trying to reinstall Mavericks on used Macbook Pro. When I log in to my Apple ID, it says it was not the same ID used to purchase Mountain Lion. I need to change user/admin as a lot of the folders and apps are in Chinese!

The first thing you should do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. How you do that depends on the model. Look it up on this page to see what version was originally installed.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc, which you can get from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. I suggest you install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. If you don't have the media, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
Once booted from the disc or in Internet Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive, which is what you should do.
After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
You should then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. If you want to upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, buy it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Apple customer service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able toauthorize it under your ID. In that case, contact iTunes Support.

I'm trying to do a book using iphoto 11 (9.4.2), but i don't get a low resolution warning. Why? and how can i get the warning., i'm trying to do a book using iphoto 11 (9.4.2), but i don't get a low resolution warning. Why? and how can i get the warning.

I'm trying to do a book using Iphoto, but it no longer gives a low resolution warning like it used to in the older versions.
I don't know why it doesn't anymore, (or maybe I have to add it on somehow??) but it makes it difficult to know how much I can
zoom in on a picture and still have it be good printable resolution.
Does anyone know how to resolve this or add the warning to the latest version of iphoto?
Thanks

With iPhoto 9 the low resolution for photos warning has been dropped. The only warning one will get now is for text that has overflowed the text box:
As Larry suggested send a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphoto.html to get it back. That's a big omission in my opinion.
You can determine what your minimum resolution is for your images (if all taken from the same camera) by dividing the pixel dimensions by the size of the larges frame in the book which would be 8.5 x 11. If it's at or above 150 dpi you'll be above Apple's previous resolution warning limit.

There are 6 pages of images and text, and it

Does anyone have any knowledge about this? The link to my site:

Unfortunately iWeb cannot read or import previously published files, only generate them. You'll have to recreate your site from scratch.
However, Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the recreation of the site.

Hi I am using an iphone 4 and its was working fine. Presently its giving browsing error. Whenever I am trying to browse internet by using safari or any other browser it retruns with an error message "server not responding" Even the same thing is happening with youtube also. The worst part is am able to check my mails, able to chat and so on... only thing not able to browse through the browser. I have tried restore option also. This is happening with both Wlan and Data con. too
Please help...

I do not really know much about this kind of problem, but i may be your internet connection.
If you are on your own #G network then:
Go to Settings > then enable "Airplane Mode". Count to 10 and then disable it.
Then wait patiently until you get a good connection and then try again.
If you are on a nearby Wi-Fi connection then:
Go to Settings > Wi-Fi > then disable then enable after counting to 10. Make sure that you are connected and then try again.
If all else fails, then you need to contact your provider for assistance.

I tried to burn a DVD using iDVD after upgrading to Maverick, first time I tried after upgrading to Maverick a few weeks ago. It seems to get stuck at encoding menu stage and not doing anything. Does anyone else have the same problem?

I did not have a DVD handy to burn but I have just created a small 2 minute video and created a Disk Image and also a VIDEO_TS folder, the encoding worked correctly, so it works with some items.
You may get a better responce in the iDVD forum.
