Adding second 5508 Wireless Controller, how to best configure for load balancing and redundancy?
We recently purchased a second 5508 wireless controller (both licensed for 100+ AP's). What is the easiest way to configure and add the second controller so I can split the load between the 2 controllers and provide failover capability? I do not want to run in an active/standby mode since that will effectively cut our AP capacity by half even with both controllers running.
Should I just manually configure the new controller (long and drawn out process to configure all the parameters), backup the current controller configuration and import to the second controller (then change the ip address) or is their an easier way to cause the two controllers to synchronize the configurations?
We are currently running 7.0.240.0 on our active controller and I would rather not upgrade it until we get the new controller online so I can have less downtime and fail AP's between controllers.
What can you recommend?
Jim
I'm assuming then, when I update the software on the controllers I won't be able to choose which controller is primary for an AP anymore and will lose access to the 100 AP licenses (and the capability to have 100 AP's registered, 100 licenses on each Controller).
Read the Deployment Guide. It should mention that you can choose which controller is the "primary" and which one is the "secondary".
If I'm not concerned about quick failover can I still assign a primary and secondary controller for each AP and utilize all 200 AP licenses that are split between the 2 controllers?
You sure can. But this "old school" method is a very expensive method. Why? Because this means that you have two controllers with similar AP licenses. The newer AP SSO means one controller has a full license and the other has only an HA SSO license, which is a lot cheaper.

Best practice for load balancing on SA540
Are there some 'best practice' guide to configure out load balancing on SA540 .?
I've got 2 ADSL lines and would like device to auto manage outgoing traffic .. Any idea ?
RegardsHi,
SA500 today implements flow based round robin load balancing scheme.
In the case of two WAN link (over ADSL), by default, the traffic should be "roughly" equally distributed.
So in general, users should have no need to configure anything further for load balancing.
The SA500 also supports protocol binding (~PBR) over WAN links. This mechanism offers more control on how traffic can flow.
For example, if you have 1 ADSL with higher throughput than the other ADSL link offers, you can consider to bind bandwidth-hungry app on the WAN link connecting to the higher ADSL link and the less bandwidth-hungary app on the other one. The other traffic can continue to do round robin. This way you won't saturate the low bandwidth link and give users better application experiences.
Regards,

Best Configuration for Dual Monitors and Cintiq
I'm a photographer and my G5 has dual monitors with Aperture. I now have a Wacom Cintiq monitor that I want to incorporate into this configuration, but I am having trouble figuring out the best way to do this. Right now, I have to disconnect one monitor and use that DVI port for the Cintiq. It works, but it is a hassle.
Does anyone out there have this sort of setup and how have you solved this? Thanks.I still don't have an answer yet. I have two identical NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT cards in the number 1 and 2 slots. They are both set to x8/x16 which is a setup for equal medium performance from each card.
My problem persists as described at the beginning of this forum (all the monitors flick OFF for about two seconds, at a 30 minute interval (exactly), except that recently a new problem has cropped up. When I return to my computer each morning the monitors running from the number 2 slot don't light up right away, and I need to turn the power switch on the monitors on and off a couple of times before they will recognize the computer's signal and start glowing.
Also another new issue that seems related to the monitors. When the monitors go off every 30 minutes, the signal to a pair of amplified speakers is interrupted.
Any theories out there? If you guys can help me with this, maybe I tell you about the problem I have with my Mini Cooper! Wrong forum? -
Best Configuration for T4-4 and live migration
I have several T4-4 servers with Solaris 11.1
What kind of settings I need for production environments with OVM live migration?
Should I use OVM manager for rugged environments?
Should I set two io-domain on each server?
Considering that I do live migration, for guess ldom system disk should I configure (publish) one big LUN to all servers or just a separate LUN for each ldom guest.For the first questions: it's best to have separate LUNs or other backend disks for each guest - otherwise how would you plan to share them across different guests and systems? Separate LUNs also is good for performance by encouraging parallel I/O. Choice of using an additional I/O domain is up to you, but it's very typical for production users because of the resiliency it adds.
For advice on live migration, seehttps://blogs.oracle.com/jsavit/entry/best_practices_live_migration
Other blog posts after that discuss availability and performance.
Hope that helps, Jeff -
Hi!
I try to configure a Cisco 5508 Wireless controller and 25 Air-lap1041 to use as VoIP and data. I read documents, manuals, etc, but the AP doesn't charge the configuration, or not conect with the Wireless Controller, why? No Radius server present, only WPA security.howto, please...
I try to put a static ip in the LAP, with lwapp or capwap command, (LWAPP/CAPWAP ap ip address direccion mascara) and the AP returns "You should configure Domain and Name Server from controller CLI/GUI." and i can't change the name of the AP (Command is disabled).

Hola:
Tengo que configurar un cisco 5508 wireless controller con 25 air-lap1041n, para usarlo como acceso de datos y voz. ¿Cómo lo hago? He leído manuales, y seguido las instrucciones, pero el punto de acceso parace que no es capaz de cargar el perfil. No hay servidor radius, solo la configuración de una clave wpa. Alguién me puede indicar pasos, GraciasHi!
I buy a gigabit switch. I connect the service-port to gigabit switch, and laptop to gigabit switch. I used 192.168.1.x ip address (192.168.1.157 to service-port and 192.168.1.233 to wired port on laptop, well, the laptop has two ip adress, 192.168.1.233 and 209.165.200.2, and the laptop works ok. Ping to 209.165.200.230 -ip address of management interface- and ping to 209.165.200.203 -ip address for AP, is assigned by DHCP of WLC. And i connect the ap to gigabit switch, and the wlc assigns well an ip direction.
I post the run-config and sysinfo log. The gigabit switch is tp-link model tl-sg1005d, no configuration.
Before the logs, I see this message from AP:
*Apr 19 23:10:20.211: %CAPWAP-3-ERRORLOG: This AP is not supported in controller
version 6.0.199.4 ---->What's mean that? Is it compatible the ap with the WLC? ¿Es compatible el AP con el WLC?
Hola:
He comprado un switch gigabit. Conecto el service-port al switch gigabit y el portátil también (por cable). Uso como direcciones ip el rango 192.168.1.x (192.168.1.157 asignado al service-port y 192, 168.1.233 al portátil, bueno, el portátil tiene dos direcciones, la dicha anteriormente y la 209.165.200.2) El portátil funciona bien, hace ping al 209.165.200.230 - la ip de la management interface, y a 209.165.200.203 - ip asignada al AP por el DHCP del WLC. He conectado el AP al swtich gigabit, y el dhcp del wlc asigna correctamente una dirección ip.
Añado a continuación los resultados de los comandos "show run-config" y "show sysinfo". El switch es un TP-LINK modelo TL-S1005D, sin necesidad de configuración.
Antes de mostrar los resultados de los comandos, he visto el siguiente mensaje en el log del AP:
*Apr 19 23:10:20.211: %CAPWAP-3-ERRORLOG: This AP is not supported in controller

Best configuration for maximum WiFi speed?
Hello, I am trying to configure my network for the best WiFi speed. I have a Comcast/Xfiinity Modem/ Wireless Router (SMCD3GNV) with speed of 50 Mbps down and 10 Mbps up (acutally 87 down and 11.5 up last time tested) and 3 Airport Extremes, and a 16 port GB switch. I am really confused about what should be plugged in to what and how to set up the Airport extemes for best WiFi speed for laptops, iphones and iPads etc. . I have a large house and want the WiFi to be available everywhere. Shoud I plug the Modem/Router and the first Airport extreme into the switch and then set up the other 2 Airport extremes as extended networks, or should I plug all the Airports into the switch, or should I plug just the first Airport into the switch and then connected the other 2 Airports into the 1st? Like I said I am really confused. Any help you can offer would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
VicFor the best configuration for maximum WiFi speed, connect all your Extremes to the switch.
The effective range of your wireless network will be a function of the distances the Extremes are from one another. Each will be limited by Ethernet specification to a maximum distance 100m from the switch or adjacent Extreme.

I just purchased, and upgraded, a laptop that has:
GTX 470 (3 GB dedicated video)
24 GB DDR3 RAM
120 GB primary internal SSD (C Drive) (up to 550MB/s read, up to 500MB/s Write)
480 GB second internal SSD (D Drive) (up to 540MB/s read, up to 460MB/s write)
i7 processor
I shoot with 3 Sony HDR CX550V's. They of course compress to H.264...
So, what is the best way to setup this laptop? Basically, I installed the OS and software on the primary drive. Then I opened up premiere and created a blank project and setup "Media" and "media cache" under project settings to store in a folder on the D drive. I assume I don't want anything on the primary drive, no cache, no renders, just keep it clean.
But the C drive is faster and I would like your professional, experience opinion as to how to best configure this. Should I render out to the C since it has faster write? Should I store cache on C in a folder that I clean out every now and then? Data files on D? etc...
This laptop has a thunderbolt port too, and 4 USB3.0, it's an Asus laptop. I have an external drive, but it's RDD, 7200 RPM's. I could get an external SSD but for the most part I don't want to use an external drive in my workflow. However, for bigger projects if there's a major advantage I may need or at least want to do that. So, suggestions for this scenario would be appreciated too, but mostly curious about the best way to deal with my internal drives. I am curious if there would be a big difference expected with an external drive(s) in the mix...Also, please be specific, like where to put what:
Project (premiere project files)
Scratch (video/audio previews)
Source files, my H.264 files that is)
Exports (Renders)
"Media Cache Files" and "Media Cache Database" under preferences/media
And anything else specific that would be helpful to know.
Thanks! -
Best practices for loading apo planning book data to cube for reporting
Hi,
I would like to know whether there are any Best practices for loading apo planning book data to cube for reporting.
I have seen 2 types of Design:
1) The Planning Book Extractor data is Loaded first to the APO BW system within a Cube, and then get transferred to the Actual BW system. Reports are run from the Actual BW system cube.
2) The Planning Book Extractor data is loaded directly to a cube within the Actual BW system.
We do these data loads during evening hours once in a day.
Rgds
GkHi GK,
What I have normally seen is:
1) Data would be extracted from APO Planning Area to APO Cube (FOR BACKUP purpose). Weekly or monthly, depending on how much data change you expect, or how critical it is for business. Backups are mostly monthly for DP.
2) Data extracted from APO planning area directly to DSO of staging layer in BW, and then to BW cubes, for reporting.
For DP monthly, SNP daily
You can also use the option 1 that you mentioned below. In this case, the APO cube is the backup cube, while the BW cube is the one that you could use for reporting, and this BW cube gets data from APO cube.
Benefit in this case is that we have to extract data from Planning Area only once. So, planning area is available for jobs/users for more time. However, backup and reporting extraction are getting mixed in this case, so issues in the flow could impact both the backup and the reporting. We have used this scenario recently, and yet to see the full impact.
Thanks - Pawan -

But even though you can still buy iLife 11 that includes iDVD 7 from Amazon, Apple now make it difficult to install:
Poster jhb21939 posted this in another thread:
“when I attempted to load iDVD into a new iMac. A notice came up on the screen stating that the 'Authorisation Licence' had expired on 25 March this year (2012).
I contacted the Apple support team and eventually, I was told that the Licence had been withdrawn and could no longer be used.”
In other words Apple are now so adamant that we don’t use iDVD that they have tried to make it impossible to install.
In response, Old Toad posted this solution:
“You can still use it one all of your Macs. If you get an invalid certificate message just set your Mac's clock to sometime before early 2011 and run the installer. After you're done reset the time back to the correct time.” He added this comment:
“It began after iDVD and iWeb were discontued and they were dropped from the Apple Store. All I can think of is the certificate was set to expire after a certain time period after the intitial iLife disc was released.
I've been able to use the installer even without setting back the date. I just clicked on the Continue button and it would work as expected. For some it would not continue unless the date was set back.”
The latest anorexic iMacs just announced do not even include a CD drive! Proof positive that Apple virtually prohibit the use of DVDs - although the newly announced Mac Minis do include a Superdrive.
Yet, they still include iMovie! Heaven alone knows or understands what you are supposed to do with your newly edited masterpiece - except make a low quality version for YouTube? -
I've only had my iphone 5s for a week. I keep getting an error message of "Server has stopped responding." I need the server to work. Does anyone know if there is a "fix" for the problem? Other wise, I probably best return for a refund and get a Samsung. Thanks

Unlikely. Based on the complete lack of detail of the issue provided it is entirely possible the same issue would occur.
Unless and until the user provides some actual details of the problem, there is nothing the indicate that the issue is with the iPhone. -
How do I configure DW to open and load a file?
I have DreamWeaver CS5 running on a Mac. Whenever I double-click to open a DreamWeaver compatible file (such as an HTML file), if DW is not already open, DW launches but does not load the file. Once DW is launced, I can double-click the file and it will load. How do I configure DW to open and load a file together?
DW: v11 b 4993
OS X: 10.7.4 (11E53)HTML files are normally configured to open in a browser. The default on a Mac is to open the file in Safari.
You can right-click the filename in the Mac Finder, and select Open With > Dreamweaver CS5 from the context menu.
Alternatively, select an HTML file in Mac Finder, and press Cmd+I to open the Info panel. In the Open With section, select Dreamweaver CS5 as the default program, and click the Change All button. -
Hi
How to populate data for 2LIS_40_REVAL, 2LIS_43_POSCAS and 2LIS_44_POSREC datasources at RSA3?
I'm very new to retail BI.
I think there is no setup tables for Retail infosources.
Any IDoc or BAPI activation is required or other procedure?
We are in BI-700 SAPKW70015 support pack R/3 side
and SAP_BW 700 Support pack SAPKW70016 &
BI_CONT 703 Support pack SAPKIBIIP9 BI side
Can anyone guide me how to load data?
Points assured
Thanks in advance
Ramana PDear Ramana,
There is no setup table for POSCAS and POSREC.This has to be popuated with a BADI Implementation.
As of PlugIns 2002_1_470 and 2002_2_470, POS data is update into BW the 2LIS_44_POSREC and 2LIS_43_POSCAS extractors using a BADI. To be able to update data into BW, the relevant implementation for the BADI must be activated in each case. You can activate the implementation in transaction SE19. The implementations are as follows:
POS_EX_REC_PI2003_1 for extractor 2LIS_44_POSREC
POS_EX_CAS_PI2003_1 for extractor 2LIS_44_POSCAS
Once the activation of BADI , create the back ground jobs for the 44 application and the data is pushed into Delta queue and it can be loaded into BI .
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,

Whats the best software for photo editing and creating product catalogues that can be saved as PDF's
You are asking two different questiions:
1. What's a good photo editor? Answer to that here is probably obvious.
2. What's a good desktop publishing/page layout program for creating PDF files for production? Answer, not PSE. It's a photo editor, not a page layout program. -
I have two ASA 5540s that I would like to configure for VPN load balancing. I had been looking at the Active / Standby configurations, but am curious if doing this I can truly get VPN load balancing or if this means all VPNs on the active unit and then when a failure happens all VPNs go over to the standby unit. This isn't what I want.
I have found some documents that talk about setting up a cluster. But I think these documents are telling me not to configure the two ASAs as a active / standby failover pair. Does that make sense?
Anyway - what is the best way to accomplish VPN load balancing? In our setup these ASAs will only be handling VPNs (no firewalling will be done here).An active/standby failover pair configuration will provide for resiliency in the event of a hardware or software failure. One ASA is "Active" while the other is in a "Standby" mode. Config and state information is synchronized between the two devices. Only one ASA services client connections at any given time.
Load balancing, on the other hand, allows you to configure a "cluster" with multiple participants. Each participating ASA can service client connections thus sharing the load. The following doc gives a good overview of load balancing and provides sample configurations.
