Activity Monitor % User and % System do not add up
Looking at my iMac i7 Activity Monitor/ All Processes/ CPU I find that the % User and % System do not add up to showing the correct % Idle.
For example, a recent screenshot shows % user = 0.81, the % System = 0.41 and % idle shows 61.25. The CPU usage graph show nothing going on and the Process Name list shows nothing unusual.
This constantly changes - sometimes the figures add up to 100% but usually the % Idle can be anywhere from 40% to a correct 98 - 99% based on nothing of any consequence running.
I look at the Activity Monitor on my MacBook and % Idle shows correct addition and a constant 98 - 99%.
What is going on?
Thank you.
This afternoon, it will be an entire week without a crash on my Squeezebox system!
Totally removing Intego VirusBarrier X6 from my main computer (iMac i7) finally lets me enjoy my music again.
The main problem is that X6 does not provide feedback as to what it is doing so the user cannot adjust the settings. In other words, no specific message as to what X6 just prevented.
As a crash can occur anywhere from 10 minutes to 8 hours of play time, hit or miss setting adjustments waste an amazing amount of time. This has been going on for a year with the frequency of crashes escalating.
I had already entered all my music devices on the Trusted List and had set up rules for all the ports that Squeezebox uses. Still crashed.
There is no reason why Logitech and/or Intego engineers cannot provide security setup instructions. Unfortunately, Logitech only shows security help for PCs.
Well the nightmare is over. Amazing what free time I now have.
The next three paragraphs are for Squeezebox owners and may be of some help if you are having problems:
A crash (for me) is defined in many ways. The worst crash is when the Squeezebox device shuts off and only pulling the electric plug will revive it. Another crash shows itself when the next song only plays for about 1 second and goes to the next song endlessly until the device shuts off. The Logitech manual says move the device closer to the wireless point when this happens but if they are connected by ethernet cables, this advice is useless. Another crash is when three units are synced and one of them suddenly is no longer in sync and playing a different song.
Crashes can occur when units are in sync or not in sync. Connected wirelessly or by ethernet. And when a crash occurs, the loud 'crunching' noise that occurs is not kind to the speakers.
BTW, if some devices are in sync, make sure these devices are connected the same way - either all wirelessly or all by ethernet. If you don't, you will experience sound lags of about 1/2 second. A very annoying echo effect.

Not able to open active directory user and computer in windows server 2008r2
Hi All techies,
i would like to know one issue which i am facing mostly, i have created 5 virtual machine all with window server2008r2 and one windows 7 on vm-ware now when ever i start my virtual machines everything going rite but when i try to open active directory user/
computer or domain and trust i get a following error "data from active directory user and computers is not available from dc(null) bcoz unspecified error" even when i chk in events log its give me no help, and after 15-30 min everything works good
Please let me know the cause of it and really appreciate it .
Thanks
AtulYou need to ensure that
1. group policy that says "wait for network before logon" is applied to all computers including servers and workstations is applied
2. DNS record exists for all DCs in DNS
3. If there are multiple Domain Controllers in Forests, then they point them as secondary DNS server. This way they will be able to resolve IPs if local DNS server service takes time to start.
As Chris mentioned, you need to start all DCs first, give a time of 5 minutes and then start member servers and workstations for successful logon.

How to create "folders" in Active Directory Users and Computers?
Hello Community
In Windows Server 2008R2 when you go to Active Directory Users and Computer
you will see icons of folders such as:
- Builtin has a folder icon
- Computers has a folder icon
- ForeignSecurityPrinicpals has a folder icon
- Domain Controller as a folder icon
- Managed Service Accounts has a folder icon
- Users has a folder icon
All of the above folders are visually identical.
If you right click and select “File” – “New”
on any of the selections the icon
will not look like the folder icon they have their own icons which look different
from the "Folder" icon.
I would like to create a “Folder” that looks just visually exactly like the ones
mentioned above, how can I create those types of Folders in Active Directory User
and Computers?
Note: I would like to put users in the folders.
Thank you
ShabeautHi,
you should use OUs (an OU is they type of object (folder) that is available for you to easily create.
The object type you are asking about is a "container", and there are various reasons why an OU is more flexible (applying GPO, etc).
Refer: Delegating Administration by Using OU Objects

Active Directory Users and Computer not displaying column data?
I am running Windows 8.1 Enterprise with RSAT installed. My Domain controllers are Server 2008 R2.
I am having and issue with Active Directory Users and Computers. Typically I will turn on Advanced Features and then add Columns for Email address and Display Name. This for example allows me to easily export lists of users and there email
addresses among other things.
The issue is that on my Windows 8.1 client, the columns for Email and Display Name are empty. It simply will not display this information. It only displays Name, TYpe and Description.
If I use a Windows 7 client, the information displays correctly.
Has anyone run into this issue or heard of this problem when using ADUC on Windows 8.1?ADUC is an AD tool that is no longer being improved, with Microsoft now focusing on ADAC (Administrative Center). In 8.1, it has improved quite a bit since 7. You can also just try using the
ActiveDirectory PowerShell Module, which is easy to use and fairly powerful. It can be simple to export lists, and the module for AD is included with RSAT tools.
Example:
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
Get-ADUser -Filter {Manager -eq "John.Smith"} -Properties DisplayName,Mail | Export-Csv dump.csv -NoTypeInformation
So, recommendation: either use ADAC, or PowerShell -- ADUC is part of the wave of deprecation. -
Can not open Active Directory Users and Computers
Problem Reported:
Out of the blue this has started happening:
When I go to "Active Directory Users and Computers" I get this message.
"MMC cannot open the file C:\WINDOWS\system32\dsa.msc.
This may be because the file does not exist, is not an MMC console, or was created by a later version of MMC. This may also be because you do not have sufficient access rights to the file.
Additional information:
This is a server that has been in use for 2+ years with active directory users that can and do login everyday.
As far as I know the system has no backup.
dsa.msc IS located in the system32 folder
I am using the administrator account.
OS:
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2
Standard x64 Edition
Service Pack 2
Please help with detail. Thank you.Have you tried to uninstall ADUC administrative tool and re-install it again? If no, please give a try.

Activity Monitor, Memory and Freezes
I've had a few Logic freezes recently so I open Activity Monitor to try and find some info. Firstly if the CPU use and threads next to Logic Pro keep changing is there a chance that Logic will unfreeze if it's been stuck for say over 5 minutes?
Also I'm trying to see how near I am to the memory ceiling. I've got 32 GB in my MacPro so it's not a shortage of RAM more hitting the single app limit. I don't understand the relationship between "Real Memory" and "Virtual Memory" as regards the single app limit. Logic has just crashed and the associated readings are Logic Real 2.13GB Virtual 3.88GB, VSL Daemon Real 7.02MB Virtual 867MB, VSL Server 2.35GB Real 3.31 GB Virtual. ousiad (is this East West Play plug-in?) 816kb Real 2.57 GB Virtual, Vienna Ensemble 882MB Real 2.5GB Virtual. Total free memory is 20.11GB.
If someone can help my understanding this would most be welcome!
Thanks
Julian"Virtual 3.88GB" - That's the one that kills your Logic app.
You can read a lot on the forums that Logic has this limit of around 3.5GB of memory that it can allocate. I want to point out two things from my experience.
1) This limit is about the "Virtual Memory" not the "Real Memory".
2) When you get close to that limit, Logic just crashes. You would figure that it might give you just an alert box with a memory warning, no - poof - Logic is gone.
A few more things.
* Keep your Activity Monitor open and be very careful when you go across the 3GB "Virtual Memory" line. Every additional Plugin could push you over the edge.
* Besides loading additional instruments, there are other factors that you should be aware of. i.e. Apple Loop Browser. If you have a big Apple Loop library and you make a search on all loops, you can see in the Activity Monitor that such a search could require a few hundred MB of additional Virtual Memory. That's enough to cross the line and crash Logic. Believe me, it took me a while (and a lot of frustration and restarts) until I figured that out.
So why the difference between the "Real Memory" and "Virtual Memory" number. I seems that this leads into hardcore programming voodoo,aka "I have no idea". One observation I made is the impact of the graphic cards. Usually the Virtual Memory number is about 300-500MB bigger thatn the Real Memory number. When I changed my 2 graphic cards to new ones with more VRAM the difference between the Real and Virtual Memory number grew to 1GB . Don't asked me how long it took me to figure out that relation. All I saw was that I couldn't load big Logic Projects that I worked on before with no problem.
Bottom line:
The more stuff you load into Logic, the closer you have to monitor Activity Monitor and save more frequently.
Think about how often you read forum posts that Logic is completely unstable and crashes all the time. I bet that a high percentage is related to user hitting that Virtual Memory limitation. -
Hide all except one object in Active Directory Users and Computers.
Hello,
I have a question.. I need to allow to one group of "administrators" creating users in one OU and adding computers to the domain, nothing else. I allowed them to log on DC using the GPO "Allow log on locally", because I don't want to give
them administrator rights, I allowed them to do these operations on one OU through delegation wizard and now I need to make all OUs, groups etc. invisible to them except this OU. What is the best way how to achieve this? Thank you...
d.I would disable the ability to allow them to login. I suggest to create a Computers OU that you can delegate to the "admins" to add computers, and don't use the default Computers container.
I assume the admins are using Windows 7 or newer. You can customize an RSAT installation to just provide the ADAC.

Posibilities of user and system status?
Hi CRM experts,
I've some doubts respect the user and system status configuration.
My client wants to stop the upload process (to R3 site) of a Sales Order document, regarding a specific user status. Then, they want to restore the uploading process regarding into a specific user status different from the firts one.
User Status - System Status
Status 1 - Stop uploading process
Status 2 - Restore the uploading process
I made the following customizing in my status profile (assigned to my Sales Order transaction)
User Status - Transaction Control - Forbidden - Set
Status 1 - To be distributed - X - X
Status 2 - empty - empty - empty
When I save a Sales Order in Status 1, the BDOC is correctly generated and the document is not present in R3 environment. The problem occurs when I modify the Status, from Status 1 to Status 2. The document is in R3 environment (???) but the generated BDOC remains in Yellow light.
Is correct to implement this uploading behaviour regarding a user status like my configuration? May I implement some checks on the upload BADI better?
I need some help in these questions please.
Thanks in advanceHi,
It might be easier if you could come to a scenario were one specific user status should trigger the distribution. Then you have a direct link between a user status & a system status, meaning that there is no need for additional coding.
If the bdoc remains in intermediate state, then that means there's an error in the queues or a short dump. check transactions smq1 & smq2 and ST22 in both systems.

Activity monitor freezes and shows no processes
I've been having a recurring problem lately. I have two large Numbers files with lots of cell references. When working with these files, my MacBook's brain seems to be melting: operations as simple as changing worksheets can take a few minutes, editing cell contents can take several minutes more. Copying and pasting is a "set it up, make some lunch, come back and check" kind of operation.
The performance was so remarkably bad that I thought I should open up the Activity monitor and see how much of the CPU Numbers was using. However, I found that whenever I try to open the Activity Monitor, no processes are listed and the monitor hangs indefinitely with the swirling "waiting" pointer. No processes ever show up, no matter how long I wait, and the monitor is frozen with the "waiting" pointer. If I try to force quit the process, it is listed as "Not Responding".
Any suggestions for what might be going on here and how to fix it? Could the Activity Monitor and Numbers issue be related? I'd like to troubleshoot the Activity Monitor first and then move over to the Numbers forum if necessary to figure out the problem there.
Thanks very much,
