Another Allen Bradely Hardware Question

I would like to know what settings should be used for the switches/dials on the Data Highway Plus PC Interface card 1784-KTX with an ISA slot and communication rate of 230K bit/s. I would also like to know what other settings were used when this card was installed, such as the interrupt setting.
This card is an Allen Bradley product.

Hello,
Hopefully, someone out here is familiar with the instrument and can help you out, but I would suggest contacting Allen Bradley, or searching online for the device manual as that would probably be more helpful. Goodluck!

Another Unlimited Data Upgrade Question

(Yes, it's another one of those questions. I'm sorry, but searching - on here, or on Google - only left me with conflicting information.)
Here's my question:
A friend of mine is interested in selling me his Galaxy Nexus phone. Would I be able to keep my single-line, grandfathered, unlimited data plan if I buy his phone and switch to it, or is that only possible if I were to buy the phone new, directly from Verizon?
Here's my story:
I have an HTC Thunderbolt that I purchased when it launched. A few months after buying it, it turned into the HTC Bad Dream, and now it's the HTC Nightmare. Random heat issues, battery draining, random reboots... It's the same song and dance we've heard before. These are design issues with the phone; not something a replacement or a repair would fix.
The real annoyance, though, is the mobile hotspot. I pay $30/month to use the hotspot legitimately, unlike the users who root their phones to use it without paying for the option, but ever since Verizon started blocking the third-party wireless tethering apps, I've had to choose between using the stock mobile hotspot app and unleashing the above-mentioned Phonemageddon, or simply going without. I could drop the option from my plan, but seeing as the unlimited data plan no longer exists, I wouldn't be able to get it back without switching to a tiered or shared plan.
Switching to a more stable phone would alleviate my issues, hopefully, but the difference between Verizon's retail prices and other retailers is hundreds of dollars. Giving up my unlimited plan, however, wouldn't make the venture worth it. A definite answer to the question of buying used - either from a Verizon representative, or a customer who's been in the same scenario before - would be very helpful.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
If you provide your own equipment (your friend's Nexus or from ebay etc) then YES you can keep unlimited data. Another wayto keep unlimited would be to pay full retail for a new phone. But I'm sure your friend will give you a better deal than that
Hope that helps!

Another "get album artwork" question

another "get album artwork" question
I notice that when I click "get album artwork" it seems to go through the whole library and look for cover jpegs. (in my case, that's going to take a long time!)
here's my question: it's looking for artwork, yes, but it's NOT going to do anyything to the many, many albums for which I have already (manually) added artwork, is it? If it does - I am in trouble! Please, somebody, reassure me that the artwork I have painstakingly added manually to zillions of albums is safe!

Updade...
So, as another test, I uninstalled iTunes, then checked the hard drive again.
All the icons have now turned into Quicktime icons, which leads me to believe that when you look at your music in finder, it shows the icons related to your default music player.
So, my next step is to find a new default player, and maybe my album covers will show up again.

Another hard drive swap question - re: 8GB partition for OSX in iMac 266

I have a Tangerine iMac 266 that I am setting up for a neighbor's son. The original 6GB hard drive was toast, so I swapped in an old 10GB drive that had previously been removed from an iMacDV 400. The 10GB "new" drive had OSX 10.3.1 and OS 9.1 on a single partition. I am aware that these early iMacs need OSX in a first partition of less than 8GB, so I expected that I would need to partition the "new" drive. However, while I was loading an install CD after powering up, the iMac booted fine into OSX, despite it NOT being located in a first partition of less than 8GB (and has continued operating well - booting multiple times in OS X and 9, surfing the net, etc...the only weirdness is a refusal of Word X to run).
I thought this was impossible, and in researching this I found that the Apple support site says that, for this computer, "Mac OS X must be installed on a volume that is contained entirely within the first 8 GB of its ATA hard disk." see http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106235
My Questions:
Is the 8GB limit only related to iINSTALLING OSX on these machines (and not RUNNING OSX)?
Will the machine run into problems later if a portion of the OS (i.e., during an update) gets installed outside of the first 8GB of the disk?
One of the log files says that the driver is out of date for the RageproC, and Classic applications that require more than 4MB of VRAM say that I don't have enough VRAM to run, yet the iMac has 6MB of VRAM (2 on MB and 4 in slot as listing by the system profiler) - do I need to (or should I) reinstall the system software (I already tried loading the latest ATI drivers, but it did't help)?
P.S. - to add more data points on the subject of RAM upgrades in these iMacs, my iMac 266 would not accept a 256MB PC-100 SO-DIMM that worked fine in an iBook and in the upper slot of a Rev. A iMac 233. Well, it accepted it, but only recognized the first 128MB.

I believe Duane is correct. Even with Mac OS 9, you can run fine as long as all OS components used during startup are within the first 8GB of space. However, (even with Mac OS 9) as soon as something used during startup ends up beyond that limit, you will get open firmware or a gray screen at startup. The Mac OS X does not allow the installation target to exceed the limit as a preventative measure, not because it won't work at all.
The best "non-technical" explanation I have heard as to why, is this... The IDE hardware (and its driver) can only "see" the first 8GB of space during the initial start up process before the OS is loaded. Once start up completes, control is handed to the OS, which can see the entire drive. Therefore, apps have no problem running from beyond the limit. Only components needed before the hand-off is constrained to the 8GB limit.
FYI - On my iMac and 120GB drive, 7.78 GB (as shown in a Finder window) is the precise point where the Mac OS X Installer allows the volume to be the install target. "Precise" to with a few hundred MB's.

CS6 System Requirements + Hardware Questions

I am in hope that someone who is knowledgeable regarding hardware can confirm that my computer would meet the system requirements for CS6. I tried to get some answers via Adobe Chat, but the person was not that helpful.
I have an old Mac Pro 1,1 Dual-Core Intel Xeon 3 GHz – vintage around 2007. The graphics card is the original NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT. I see that the system requirements for CS6 state, “Some GPU-accelerated features require graphics support for Shader Model 3.0 and OpenGL 2.0.” My knowledge of hardware is perhaps not as good as some, but I don’t seem to be able to find anything about the above on my computer. In Photoshop preferences (I have Design Premium CS5) under “GPU Settings” I do have “Enable OpenGL Drawing” selected and upon clicking the “Advanced Settings …” button it shows that I can only do “Mode: Basic” OpenGL—the other menu options (Normal and Advanced) are grayed-out. I see nothing about “OpenGL 2.0” and I don’t find anything about “Shader Model 3.0.” I also don’t know anything about the required “Java Runtime Environment 1.5 or 1.6.” I have been seriously considering purchasing the upgrade to CS5.5 that would allow for the automatic upgrade to CS6.
I realize that my computer is old and would like something newer and faster, but money is an object for me. Ideally, I would like another Mac Pro, but with all the rumors about that model being discontinued, I am not clear as to what I should do. I personally cannot make up my mind as to whether or not it would be wise to put any more money into my present computer. I only have 5GB of RAM and wonder if it would be that helpful to purchase more on a somewhat older Mac. I have also seen that OWC has an AIT Radeon HD 5770 graphics card for $269.99. I don’t know if that would make much of a difference or could present problems. At times I wonder if my hard drive might be slowing down, but I am not sure of that. Most things still work well, but I was frustrated when doing some 3D in Illustrator. If I so much as wanted to move an object, the entire image would disappear for one or two seconds in order to re-draw. Again, I don’t know enough as to whether or not the addition of more RAM and a new graphics card would make that much of a difference.
Perhaps I should wait to see what comes about with the Mac Pros or if and when there is a replacement. I have to admit that at times I consider going back to PCs in that Macs seem to be so over-priced. One time I was considering getting a laptop and looked at one of the lower-priced Macbook Pros. I then checked out the HP site and the laptop that I could get for the same amount was amazing. The HP had a bigger, higher resolution screen, more RAM, 3D (with glasses) and more. The difference was stark.
Anyway, I am sorry for this very long post and apologize to anyone who might have waded through it. Hopefully, it wasn’t too boring; some people find hardware interesting. Also, for me, typing is easy and the words just sort of “fly.” I would appreciate any kind help/advice that might be available.
Thank you in advance.

Without knowing what you’re doing it’s impossible for anyone to help.
Dreamweaver system requirements are a whole lot different than Premiere Pro.
Visit the product forum for the applications you’re interested in and ask there.

How to clone a new machine from another with different hardware

How do I clone a new Sun Blade 2500 from a Sun Blade 1000 (with Solaris8)?
Is ufsdump/ufsrestore a solution? Are all needed drivers included in the kernel from the Sun Blade 1000? Or, do I first need to install patches/updates on the Sun Blade 1000?
Or, what's a better solution? Please no solutions like jumpstart, only simple cloning.
Thanks.

This isn't a simple process. The cleanest way is to take a flash archive of the Sun Blade 1000 then install it on the 2500. There is good documention for this on the Sun Blue Prints web page www.sun.com/blueprints.
Below is the down and dirt way of doing it.
Follow the instructions exactly and it will work.
1. Make sure OS supports both hardware architectures
2. Make sure you disconnect any storage except boot devices
3. Make sure boot device is unencapsulated
With a disk with the OS from the Sun Blade 1000 on it in the Sun Blade 2500. I put a disk in the master server (the Sun Blade 1000) and copy the OS using ufsdump to the disk and then take the disk and put it in the clone (the Sun Blade 2500).
4. From OK prompt, boot single user from a cdrom of the same OS which your boot disk is using
5. Use the installboot command to install the boot block on the new drive.
6. Use the uname -i command to make sure you use the right architecture.
7. Make boot block
# installboot /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk/dev/rdsk/c?t0d0s0
8. Mount boot slice to be modified
# mount /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0 /mnt
9. Remove old systems device tree. Delete the following files and directories.
# rm -r /mnt/devices/*
# rm /mnt/dev/dsk/*
# rm /mnt/dev/rdsk/*
# rm /mnt/etc/path_to_inst
# touch /mnt/etc/path_to_inst
# rm -r /mnt/dev/cfg/* (solaris 8 and 9)
# rm /mnt/dev/.dev*
10. Build new device tree and path_to_inst
# drvconfig -r /mnt/devices -p /mnt/etc/path_to_inst
# devlinks -r /mnt
# disks -r /mnt
# tapes -r /mnt
# ports-r /mnt
# audlinks -r /mnt
11. Make sure you update /etc/vfstab to reflect the new device target and slices.
12. Reboot machine, you may have run a couple boot -r to clean other devices up.
13. Perform another boot -r to bring in storage.
Good luck

CS5: CUDA, CPU and other hardware questions

CS5 can gain much speed with CUDA technology by Nvidia; I assume everybody who researched a bit knows this.
However, I like very exact information to get the best decision for a new investment.
I need to get two identical new CS5 systems, that are much faster and not as buggy as my last CS4 system.
I have about 30.000 euro for 2 machines.
Our studio demands SDI connections, so I got a Matrox Axio.
Currently my system has lots of problems with Premiere and After Effects:
- Field swaps
- Inconsistent effect parameters
- Very slow rendering
- Very slow app startups
- Multi task slowdowns
- Crashes of apps
- Very slow interface operations
1. Does CS5 only use the CUDA of supported CUDA Cards?
2. Does SLI or multi graphic card tech, help CS5 speed at all?
3. Is it useful to get a Tesla next to a Quadro 5800 or is it not seen by CS5?
4. What Intel processor is best suited for After Effects rendering: iX or Xeon architecture?
5. Does Adobe really use only 3 Gb per core, meaning you should not buy more than 3Gb per CPU core? Or is it per THREAD and should I get more RAM?
6. Speed or number: Is it better to focus on very high total core speed, or to optimal RAM distribution by getting as many cores as possible?
7. Can a Matrox MXO2 Rack unit, cooperate with the Nvidia CUDA power or could both accelerations/technologies hinder eachother?
8. Is it best to get Nvidia SDI connectivity or is there a save alternative?
9. Can iX CPU's be dual or is that a Xeon option only?
10. What is the fastest 6 core Xeon that can be dual?
11. Does CS5 need a good scratch disk: is it wise to get a SSD just for scratch or is it overkill?
12. Some say the Nvidia 5800 is not the fastest card around; it has 240 cuda cores and some gtx cards have far more than that. What is the story?
I probably forgot about 324 other questions, but for now these will do.
If any of you can give objective and confirmed information, please do!

"I have about 30.000 euro for 2 machines." That's about $38,772.00 USD!! Oh what I could build with that money! I.M.O, I would seriously look for a way around using Matrox video products. We began using the Matrox RT.X100 back in 2003 with Premiere 6.5. On a good day, we could edit all day with only one crash. The RT.X100 introduced serious problems to our workflow like corrupted project files and timelines that would export finished "show master" videos that contained errors like areas that freeze frame for 10 seconds.
Here is a link in the Adobe Hardware Forum to the two systems I recently built for the company I work for. Both systems cost roughly the equivalent of 2,725 EUR. That's not each, but for both systems:
Our Two Rock-Solid Editing Systems
The X-58 motherboards will accept the new 6 core intel i7 980x processors, you could go with 4GB sticks of RAM for a total per system of 24 and pop in a couple of Nvidia 285 GTX's for MPE acceleration. You should go with Harm's recommendation for Raid setup. For input and output connections, I'm thinking that someone makes a non-invasive solution. Take a look at products like the DeckLink HD Extreme 3D. I really don't know if this product is compatible with CS5 and the Mercury Playback Engine. I would do a little research on that.

Another simple classpath problem question

tmlHi
thanks for your reply.
Yes, I agree. I use conventions with my programs. But my real problem was with a real application and then I did quickly this simple code to help others to understand the problem and give a fast reply...
Let me know if that works. (It was fine on my
machine.) - MODYes it works fine, thanks.... and Damn...Murphys law again, the only option I didn't tried is the solution to my problem... :)
Thanks again...

Another After Effects 2D Question

So, I have read different forum posts here as well a other communities. I always read that I need specifics, so I will try to be as specific as possible.
I want to know if After Effects is the right program for the type of 2D animation i'm trying to achieve.
I also should make it clear that I am new to motion graphics and may get some terminology wrong. I would say I have a pretty firm grip on Photoshop and Illustrator; I'm a designer for a screen printing shop by trade. I also have a limited but functional knowledge of Premiere and am in the midst of editing 2 music videos. I have always been interested in animation and video but did not have the resources ($23,000 for 2.5 years) to study it at the Art Institute of Houston. I am mainly self taught by way of lynda.com. I have NO PROBLEM doing the training and taking a long time to develop my skill to the level I believe they need to be, but I don't really want to learn 2 different animation software programs unless absolutely necessary.
I would like to produce an animated music video for a band that will have about a 4 minute run time. The style of animation is NOT Disney, but more or less South Park (cut-out?). More specifically, the intro sequence to the 2014 season. I have read that SP uses Maya, which with my limited knowledge seems a little bit overkill. The intro sequence looks at times 3D, but I am confident I can fake the look with proper texture, shading, placement, shadows and zooming. In reality, what I want to accomplish is somewhere between the look of the intro and the actual show. The end result is a video for view on YouTube, Vimeo, etc for view on desktop computers and smartphones/tablets. TV is not the goal (although I guess it would be nice).
I think I would create the characters as vectors in AI, and perhaps bring them into Photoshop for texture.
Is AE the right software to accomplish this, or would i be better off learning something like ToonBoom Harmony, Blender or Animation Studio 10?
(or another I am unfamiliar with)
Perhaps an Adobe forum is not the most neutral place to ask this question, but I'm not giving up Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere or Speedgrade, so any and all honest opinion are welcome.
- Can I import "real" vectors into AE and use them for characters, or would everything need to be rasterized?
- Does AE have a "bones" rigging system or anything comparable?
- Does AE have a "bullet-physics"-style option? (I'm getting that terminology from Poser, which I purchased while it was on sale but have not even installed yet.)
- Can I import 3D objects from Poser?
- Does AE offer any true 3D features, or do I need Maya or a similar program?
Thanks in advance for any insights anyone can offer.
(edit: I know I asked about 2D then asked a few 3D questions at the end, but I am just curious. My MAIN concern is 2D)

Thank you for that. I started reading the comments, and it looks like this video was uploaded by someone other than the creator, and the creator calls him out on it! So here is the link to the original from the creator.
http://cgi.tutsplus.com/tutorials/create-your-own-south-park-style-animation--cms-19982
EDIT: So I went on a tirade here about how sh**ty millennials are, even though I am one myself. While I still believe every word I said, this in not the time or place for that discussion. The only thin I will keep is: HEY FELLOW MILLENNIALS: have some respect for other peoples creations and stop thinking you are entitled or owed ANYTHING, and finally stop taking selfies and posting pictures of your food; no one cares.

Fms hardware question

Hello,
i have a question regarding the hardware of a fms server. We have it installed and working properly on:
CentOS 5.3 64bit
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E4400 @ 2.00GHz
3GB RAM
2xSATA HDD in RAID1
We are going to stream live video, at a rate of 500 K bits/second, to an
audience of up to 5.000 people, at peak times.
The video will be pushed to the FMIS server as flash files, ready to be
streamed in the right format and bit rate, which therefore do not need any
conversion.
In addition we will be offering, video for streaming download on demand, at
a bit rate of 500 K bits/second, with up to 1000 users at the same time at
peak times.
My question is if thats possible with te current hardware?
Thanks!

Check out pages 17-19 of this doc:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashmediaserver/pdfs/fms3_5_wp_ue.pdf
It will give you some ideas of how your hardware will measure up. The tests were based on servers that each have a bonded pair of 1Gbps nic's, but actual throughput was limited to 1Gbps (NIC saturation affects performance, so if you'll make more bandwidth available at each box, factor that when factoring processor demands).

Hardware Questions for a "Dream System"

It looks like I may soon be able to build my version of a "dream system" for video work and, knowing my limitations, I wish to pose some questions to people who know the Adobe line and hardware in the hope of getting the most bang for my buck.
I would like to give a little information about me that may make my questions and frame of reference make more sense.
I formerly practiced as a structural engineer and, within my admittedly limited specialty, was at the top of my field. I was on the cutting edge of CAD and solid modeling. At one time, I spent a fortune building my "dream system" for that work and was happy with the result the result. My system even featured in a CAD magazine at the "ultimate". I also learned an important lesson. By the time the magazine went to press, I no longer had the best possible system: it was merely a very good one which could then be built for considerably less. That lesson stayed with me as did the machine which I continued to use until I left practice.
From this experience, I no longer look for the "latest and greatest". I look for the very good but reasonably priced. and place a premium on dependability,
I left engineering to enter seminary. I am now a United Methodist pastor. This means I no longer get $500+/hour. The church seems to labor under the old Soviet system where I pretend to work and they pretend to pay me.
While still making the transition to pastoral life, I had the experience of living through a brain tumor. So far, I have far surpassed the medical expectations for me but there is some permanent damage. These are primarily in my math and foreign language skills but, in general, I do not read and assimilate technical material nearly as easily as I used to. I am also so far behind the times in terms of following these matters than I find a whole new vocabulary has grown up around them.
My first question is about CPUs. I am leaning towards an Intel 6 core. If I were to build a machine with 2 CPUs, would the Adobe software be about to make good use of the additional CPU? This is separate from GPUs which I will consider more fully after establishing a base system. I fully intend on a nice GPU or multiple GPUs but am now asking about the CPU.
It is my hope to systematically research this build here, decide upon components and then make further inquiries to further refine the system.
I thank you for your consideration.
John A. Lee

I thank you very much for your input and I can say that your suggestions are taken seriously. In fact, I had already "chosen" some of your list (or very similar) as being the direction I want to head in.
I'd like to get back to my original question, though.
Does Premiere/AE take advantage of extra processors if they are present?
I infer from your reply that they probably do take advantage of them but that such advantage might not be cost effective.
My line of reasoning and/or consideration is thus:
1. Flagship products are often much more expensive than the next tier down.
2. The next tier is often "almost as good"
3. Using a pair of i7 6 cores would be just slightly more expensive than an i7 8 core (speaking only in terms of CPU cost, not anything else)
4. Would 12 cores give a significantly better performance than 8 cores if divided among 2 CPUs?
5. A motherboard that handles 2 CPUs might have more total expansion slots available (pure surmise but will be an issue later on)
6. Even if the core is better, I would like to understand why.
Please also remember that the 6k figure was just a first guess. I am not wedded to it. I have not had a vacation in 7 years and am planning on treating myself even if it means I have to wait just a little bit longer to pull the trigger on the project. That said, I am not willing to blow 30% of the entire project price just to shave 0.05 seconds off of a render time. If, however, that same 30% means that I wait 30 seconds instead of 5 hours, I would consider it well spent.
From what I understand, GPUs have much more effect on render times than CPUs but I do want to understand what the tradeoffs I am making are in the terms of realistic performance. It may be that there is some critical aspect for which the CPU is vitally important that I have failed to consider. The problem is, I don't know enough about hardware issues. They were never my forte!
Thanks again for spending time on this!

Premiere Pro optimisation (hardware) questions

Hello everyone.
I have some questions regarding the optimisation of Adobe Premiere Pro with hardware.
1. what is more important for better PP performance - CPU or GPU?
2. what is better for PP performance - Intel i7 CPU with 2 cores and hyper-treading enabled or AMD A10 CPU with 4 cores?
Thanks in advance.

1. CPU
2. i7 with 2 cores + HT
That CPU will at least install the software and allow for some very limited SD editing, nothing more. To see what you really need, look at Tweakers Page - What kind of PC to use?

Ultimate Hardware Question

looking over many of the posts about problems with CS4, it seems that one should install it
(1)first of all on a newly formatted system (whether XP, Vista, 32 or 64 bit).
(2) secondly it sounds like the video card makes a big difference and I can only assume that those listed by Adobe as fully tested are the only ones which should be used.
(3) third would be system hardware and I'm again assuming that there should be at least a single dual core 2.5Ghz or faster and at least 4 gigs of RAM.
I would love to hear from anyone who would like to contradict the above or add to it. If you have a fully functioning and never crashing PP CS4 and you have successfully edited something longer than 10 minutes, output to tape, sent to AME and to Encore (and they don't crash) please list your system specs and which G-d you pray to (latter is optional). if you do HD as well as SD that would be good to know. I'm about to get a new computer (for editing DVCAM and HDV) and would really like to take advantage of some of the new things in CS4 -- if not I'll stick with earlier versions.
thanks, Joey
P.S. Adobe should be more forthcoming about system specs which work, or should not release. For example Avid has very specific recommendations for components (even the 1394 card) and specific HP, Dell and Apple models and will not give tech support to systems which do no comply. Maybe because Photoshop and some other Adobe apps are so rock solid they got lazy --- video editing is another bag and we need to know what's what.

JoeyK,
1. I'm running CS4 on a newly-built (therefore newly-formatted) Vista Ultimate 64-bit system. Got the system built a couple weeks ago, didn't want to install CS3 alongside, BUT had a big project due yesterday. I took a chance and installed CS4 (even after reading all the horror stories here), and thankfully haven't had any major issues (some output probs, I'll mention below).
2. I've got a Radeon HD4850. I don't think GPU has much bearing in Premiere, but definitely helps in After Effects and Photoshop.
3. I'm running an Intel i7 920 quad-core, 3GB of DDR3 RAM (soon upgrading to 12GB), plenty of SATA drives in RAID0.
This project is an 80 minute wedding edit, editing natively in HDV. I don't ever export to tape, but I've exported to Blu-ray compatible HD MPEG2 and DVD MPEG2 using AME. I've not encountered any crashes between Premiere/After Effects/Encore.
I DO have a problem with outputting to DVD. I exported the BD-compatible MPEG2 first and imported into an Encore Blu-ray project. After creating my Blu-ray, I also wanted to export a SD DVD version; the downscaled DVD-compliant transcode Encore made looked like garbage, pixelated.
I then tried exporting a SD DVD MPEG2 directly from Premiere using AME. It has the same pixelated look to it.
Looking on the forums, I discovered an option called "Maximum Render Quality" in AME. I exported again from Premiere with this option enabled...and it's been rendering for 11hrs, only about halfway thru the footage! It is only using about 60% of my CPU, whereas rendering in Premier/Encore/AME without MRQ enabled used all four cores at 100%.
So I (and my clients!) hope that when it's done rendering I'll have a watchable SD version. No idea why it's not using 100% CPU power.
So that's been my experience! If Adobe doesn't fix this, I may have to look back into Cineform's products.

Dumb newbie hardware question! :)

Hi folks,
I'm new to the world of the blackberry and am just about to take the plunge with an unlocked sim-free BB Bold to use in the UK on Vodafone. I have read about the software differences between BIS and BES and would be going for a BIS set-up. My dumb newbie question is does the hardware come in BES and BIS versions or not?
Many thanks in advance and feel free to mock my foolishness

hello, about BIS and BES it's explained on the website but it's clear that if someone sums it up for you it will be easier...
so BES is a type of contract between a company and Blackberry. The company IT buy computers, put Blackberry servers, and buy a fleet of Blackberry Devices for the people in the company to use them and get email through the Blackberry servers.
BIS is a type of contract between a common person and a carrier. The consumer goes to the carrier, and buys a Blackberry device, and a BIS plan that will enable him/her to :
phone/sms/mms
receive emails that have been configured on the BIS site
do data things if you subscribe to (like browse the web)
You can buy a Blackberry from a carrier that has a deal with RIM (the company that sells Blackberries). Or you can buy a blackberry alone, and then go and contact a carrier that has a deal with RIM.
phone/sms/mms
receive emails that have been configured on the BIS site
do data things if you subscribe to (like browse the web)

I have a serious problem, is this hope can help me or direccionarme
We had a server with RAID May 4 full disks, raid hardware, in this arrangement the operating system, weblogic, oas, base data base software and data files, and others are included.
The server was Red Hat 4 update 3 we know the distribution and mounting points.
now the server is physically damage are only 4 disks, mount the arregloo quicimos another server but the hardware is different. We are at the point where we import the raid 5, and got on the new server but does not rise. we tested with a bootable linux from CD discs and can see but can not access the raid.
Any idea that we can provide.
Thank you.

Hi,

It is like Dude said, and of course must have the same driver version.
