Apply System Configuration Settings Broken in SIU
I'm making a NetRestore image for a small lab with 14 MacBooks.
I want to apply Computer Name and Host Name and ByHost preferences to the clients.
I'm building a NetBoot image in System Image Utility using the Apply System Configuration Settings to Apply Computer Name and Hostname settings from a file, using a tab delimited file of MAC_Addresses(en0), Computer_Names and Hostnames. Here's a few example lines:
70:cd:60:28:13:14 Abana Abana.local
70:cd:60:37:9f:ee Abigail Abigail.local
70:cd:60:38:8c:ea Afra Afra.local
Finally I'm using Change ByHost preferences to match Client after install to change a few settings like the visibility of Bluetooth in the menu bar and activating iChat's Bonjour Messaging.
The trouble is that the name and hostname never get applied and the ByHost settings don't end up matching the retored Client. It seems as if the step is simply ignored, even though it show that it completed successfully.
Has anyone successfully used Apply System Configuration Settings in Lion Server's System Image Utility?
My Workflow is fairly simple:
-Define Image Source (A preconfigured Lion client install on another partition)
-Enable Automated Installation (With Automatic Erase of "Macintosh HD")
-Apply System Configuration (As explained above)
-Create Image (NetRestore)
The workflow completes everytime without error after 2.5 hours for an 11GB image and the clients NetRestore just fine but the System Configuration Settings remain unchanged. Help? Ideas? Experience? Documentation?
Hi Ed Palma,
I have the same problem.
The NetBootClientHelper, who sets your System Configuration Settings, is not correct installed in your NetRestoreImage after creating an Image.
I try manually install the NetBootClientHelper in my Master-Installation and create a Image again.
Here are the steps necessary to get the necessary files to manually install the NetBootClientHelper in you Master-Installation.
1. Create an NetRestore-Image, or use your exsisting Image with System Configuration Settings
2. Open (mount) in .NBI-Folder your NetInstall.dmg
3. Goto Packagesa > Extras an Copy these Files to your Desktop/tmp
Here you can find the files do contain the System Configuration Settings, as sharingNames(.plist) an bindingNames(.plist) and the NetBootClientHelper-files an Startup-files.
4. Goto var > tmp > niu > postinstall an open the installClientHelper.sh with Texedit.
Here you can see which files you must be installed in you Master-Installation so that the NetBootClientHelper automatically starts at the fist boot.
This is a work-a-round, I hope that apple solve this problem with the next update.
Sorry for my bad english and good luck.

SIU "Apply system configuration settings" and Connect computers to directory servers
Good morning/Afternoon/Evening everyone.
I've currently been studying/researching imaging with OSX 10.9 server, using the SIU. As I'm going through it, one option that is appealing to me, is the "COnnect computers to directory servers:" option under the Apply System configuration settings workflow action.
The issue is that when click on the + to add a server, it only comes up with Localhost (127.0.0.1) and won't give me the option to point to my OD server for binding. Is there a way to change this, or some other option I am missing?
Also, I'm at a loss to find any setting in Profile manager that will enable/turn on "Remote management" for ARD and SSH.Thank you for that link, it is insightful. So let me throw this into the mix:
When it comes to ARD, we have to have a local user on the local machine, in order to login, correct? It won't allow us to have OD authenticated admins/users login to the client machine. Is that correct?
If that is the scenario, then how are we to lock down a situation where we are imaging multiple macs and have the potential to have admins changing or leaving, and a need to reset local machine admin credentials. Obviously we aren't going to do this individually per machine. This would also need to be done via scripting (or ARD CLI to our enterprise), but then each image needs to be updated or all new machines need to be touched after image/install.
Am I thinking of this the correct way?
Also, is it possible to create an image that has no local user at all, or is that just nonsense? -

Does anyone know what Firefox looks at locally on the PC when the "Use System Proxy Settings" setting is selected? It appears to be the default setting, recently changed from "No Proxy" of versions past...
Our company uses a pac file specified in IE under "Use automatic configuration script" - with this new default, does it adhere to the same setting in:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings]I may be wrong but I think that the "Use System Proxy Settings" makes sense only on Linux and generally speaking "other OSes". As far as I know there is no generic proxy settings in Windows operating system.
The one I know is in the registry part of Internet Explorer.
So in my understanding in Windows, Use System Proxy Settings = No Proxy -
Problems With System Configuration
System Configuration is altered and not repairable. Selective startup is persistent. Normal startup is selected, but the Apply button is greyed out, inaccessible, and system always remains in Selective startup. As a result, Current User profile is probably
corrupted. Windows Store will not install (services are corrupt, SFC and DISM did not work). Outlook profile was deleted, needed to be reinstalled, and can not receive mail. Excel math engine totals values higher than actual amounts. IE automatically signs
into all Microsoft accounts (reset to default settings worked for a log on, but automatic sign in resumed afterwards).
Are there any solutions?

I can not make a "Byte Code Adapter Installation"
When I open meets both paragraphs in step Managed System Configuration is somewhat obscure situations that do not allow the automatic configuration Introscope agent and Introscope Manager
Please help to resolve a number of questions that might help me complete the setup :
1. Why has the status of Enterprise Manager : <No Enterprise Manager configured> ( see picture)
I set up Enterprise Manager in accordance with the installation instructions and complied with all the setting items . Since without any configuration can be associated with the appearance of this status ?
2 . Why Server Node is empty detail settings ?
JDK Location:
Enterprise Manager Host:
Enterprise Manager Port:
Introscope Agent Name:
Introscope Agent Profile:
Autoprobe Directives:
Wily Version:
Introscope Agent Version:
Introscope Agent Log Location:
3 . What a mistake ($ MC: DIAG_WILY_MSG: 032 : L), which appears when I click configuration "Configure Introscope Agent Setup ...", and what it can be linked ? ( see picture )
And the last question , which is also linked to the process of automatic configuration and refers to a phrase from the instruction (Introscope Version 9
Installation Guide For SAP July 2012) points out "Automated Installation of the Introscope Agent via SMD"
there is such an item:
2 . Deploy ISAGENTJ5 *. SCA which is the Introscope Java Agent 9 with SDM to Solution Manager. You may need to deploy also ISAGENT *. SCA which is Introscope Java Agent 8.
However, nowhere does it say where exactly ( on what the absolute path ) I must perform unloading and then what to do with this dischargeThe problem was resolved a small manipulation - on stage Basic Configuration,
point 3 "Configure CA Introscope"
I forgot to add to the list of CA Introscope Enterprise Managers link to my manager.
Thus it is necessary to take into account that the path should be correct (usually for linux - /usr/sap/ccms/apmintroscope) and the directory should be applied appropriate privileges.
Then in paragraph "Byte Code Adapter Installation" - there are all the necessary data, and it starts to work correctly -
Windows - Use system proxy settings not working as expected
Hi everyone,
I have a bit of an issue that I could use some help with. We currently have remote users that utilize an SSTP VPN connection to access our internal network. Once connected, those users are required to use an internal proxy server to connect to the Internet. The proxy server is Microsoft's TMG and utilized domain authentication.
On our remote Windows clients we have their Internet Options configured to utilize a proxy as follows:
Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN Settings -> No proxy configured at all
Internet Options -> Connections -> Highlight SSTP Connection -> Settings
Use a proxy server for this connection -> IP/Port of Proxy Server
Firefox and Chrome are both configured to use system proxy settings.
Here is my process to demonstrate the issues:
Remote client workstation is rebooted.
With the above configuration just after a reboot, a remote user that is not connected to the VPN can browse the Internet with Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox. None of the browsers prompt for credentials.
A remote VPN connection is then established.
FF is opened and HTTP connections utilize the proxy server. However, HTTPS connections do not use the proxy server, but instead attempt to use the default gateway. FF does not prompt for credentials. FF is closed.
Chrome is opened and can access both HTTP and HTTPS sites without issue. No credential prompt. Chrome is closed.
IE is opened and can access both HTTP and HTTPS sites without issue. No credential prompt. IE is closed.
Here's where it gets weirder...
FF is then reopened. The VPN connection is still up. FF will prompt for credentials. Domain credentials are supplied and FF can now utilize the proxy for both HTTP and HTTPS connections. FF is closed.
VPN is disconnected.
FF is opened and cannot access the Internet as it is still trying to use the proxy server. FF is closed.
IE is opened and can access the Internet. IE is closed.
Chrome is opened and can access the Internet. Chrome is closed.
FF is reopened and can now access the Internet. FF is closed.
In summary, in the above scenario FF acts in an unexpected manner with regards to proxy usage when "use system proxy settings" is applied. However, Firefox begins acting as expected after IE is opened and closed. For example, connect to VPN, open IE, close IE, open FF, and everything works accordingly. Disconnect the VPN, open IE, close IE, open FF and everything works as expected.
Any insight you can provide would be appreciated as it is affecting our FF users and the sooner we can achieve resolution the better. As a note, we've also worked through this issue with WPAD and proxy auto-detect. I've intentionally removed these from the equation to simplify troubleshooting.
ThanksQuick update. Added to a previously filed bug. Looks like it's assigned now so maybe we'll see a fix for this soon.

Managed system Configuration : The JMX metrics of this Host / Byte Code Adapter are missing
Hi Friends
While Configuring EP system with SOLMAN 7.1 SP12 it is giving below message in self Diagnosis Phase.
1. Solman system is already having ISAGENT version 8 and 9 installed (but Managed system is having 8)
2. I have followed the automatic Process as below
==========================================
Automated Installation of the Introscope Agent via SMD
The Solution Manager provides an application that performs the setup of the Introscope
byte code agent for Java automatically. This section explains the steps to run the setup.
Before you can run the Introscope agent setup, the setup wizard for the managed system
must have been executed.
1.
2.
3.
4. Launch the Introscope Setup application: SAP Solution Manager Configuration
Managed Systems Configuration Step 7 Configure Automatically Automatic
Activity “Byte Code Adapter Installation” “Open Java URL” (only available in edit
mode). Your screen will look similar to the image below:
5. Check the Enterprise Manager Settings at the top of the screen. These are the
connection parameters that will be used by the agent to connect to the Enterprise
Manager.
6. In the pane Introscope Agent Setttings, select the system that you want to instrument
with the agent. Check “select all” and click “Retrieve Current Settings”. This will display
the current status of the agent setup.
7. To initially setup or update the agents, click Setup Introscope Agent …. This will open
the setup dialog as shown below. Select the desired agent version (by default only one
available) and choose the profile. Next, check the desired instrumentation areas, and,
in the case of AIX, review the AIX settings to match your environment (J9 or classic
mode).
8. Finally, hit Apply to perform the necessary changes in the agent configuration. Agent
config files will be adapted and the Java VM parameters will be set as required for the
managed system.
================================================================
3. Restarted SAP but error still present.
Please help to resolve the issue.
ThanksFound the solution :

2. Deploy the file to the Solution Manager JAVA stack using the Software Deployment Manager (SDM)
3. Disable the Maintenance Mode in the Agent Administration
4. Execute again the activity 'Byte Code Adapter Installation' of the step 'Configure Automatically' in the 'Managed System Configuration' for the
affected systems. This activity will deploy the new version of the
Introscope JAVA agent in the managed system servers and reconfigure the JVM parameters to use the new version of Introscope JAVA
Agent;
5. Check from Introscope Agent Admin if "IS Agent State" contains value "Running but needs restart"
6. Restart the affected managed system(s)
Finally Solution is update your SOLMAN system patch ISAGENT 8.2.4.0 from patch 0 to 1 via SDM.

Configuring settings for proxy scenario.
Hi experts,
I have SAP R/3 and XI system, need to execute a proxy scenario.
What all configuration settings have to be done for the proxy part in both XI and SAP system.
Please help with links to some good blogs.
Thanks,
YounusHi,
There are two Types of proxies which can be done by ABAP or JAVA
client proxy is used by an application to send messages outside of the system it resides in (normally to the IS in this context).
server proxy is used by an application to receive messages from sources outside itself (again, normally the IS in this context).

Configuration settings for applications ... best practices?
Hi!
We're currently developing applications for WebLogic (ADF Faces RC, EAR deployment).
Now we arrived at a point where we need some simple configuration settings/properties on the server or the domain. The applications should be able to read these settings, the mechanism should be as simple as possible.
An administrator at the server should be able to update the settings and the applications should pick up the changed values the next time the settings are accessed, without server or application restart.
I wonder what the best way would be to handle this?
- put them into the database, but then all apps would need DB access to those settings?
- System env. variable on the server, but how to pick up changes without restart?
- Property file? Where do I put that so that an admin can easily find and edit it?
What are you guys using? I was kind of hoping that WebLogic would provide some UI in the console app, that enables an admin to set some properties, but I couldn't find one. Is there one?
Any advice?
Thanks.
SaschaHi Sascha,
If you place the properties files in %WEBLOGIC_HOME%/user_projects/domains/[your_domain] then the properties file should be picked up, without having to be placed in a jar file, and in a location that will be easy to find for the WebLogic administrator.
Hope it helps.

Hi All,
We are trying to access the Create Deployment method stated below

We have uploaded the Package in the blob and browsing the configuration file. We have checked trying to upload manually the package and config file in Azure portal and its working
fine.
Below is the code we have written for creating deployment where "AzureEcoystemCloudService" is our cloud service name where we want to deploy our package. I have also highlighted the XML creation
part.

Fix for "your computer's system firewall settings will prevent you...?"
I finally did the dreaded feat and performed an update - had all kinds of problems afterwards (repeating Network settings message error, unknown error -3256 error, etc.) that I have (I think) successfully fixed thanks to these fabulous forums. After getting the -3256 error I updated the firmware and software for my AE and applied the Apple support fix for -3256. Then I started getting a new issue - being the following message after opening my new i-tunes version 8.0.2 "your computer's system firewall settings will prevent you from using Airtunes". After going into the firewall settings and trying to modify the port number (which I found suggested here) that i-tunes would use to stream to my airport express in the edit pane for 'i-tunes music sharing'. I ended up creating a new port specification, which I called i-tunes 1 with ports 5000 - 6000 specified. Tried opening i-tunes again - but no luck, same error. Thinking that I'd done nothing to improve the situation, I deleted my new port specification in the allow pane under firewall - I noticed that the original spec was gone (because I had edited it?). Anyway, as soon as I deleted the spec that I had edited, airtunes started working beautifully! To check things - I closed i-tunes and re-started, then, got the same message ""your computer's system firewall settings will prevent you from using Airtunes" with the option to check my firewall settings - which I did. This time, I noticed that 'i-tunes music streaming' was again listed as an option under allow in my firewall. I selected and deleted it - then again, my Airtunes works perfectly.
I really have no idea what exactly occurs 'behind the scenes' so to speak when you delete this from the list - but - it seems to have fixed my problem. I'm guessing that I'll have to do that each time I open i-tunes. At least I got my airtunes back. I guess I'm a little worried that deleting this item presents some sort of risk or could lead to another problem and so if anyone can comment on this I would really appreciate it. Alternatively, if anyone has a solution that won't require me deleting this item each time I open i-tunes, I'd be glad to hear it.
Thanks!
Leigh-AnnLeigh-Ann, you didn't say that Airtunes didn't work, only that you got that error. I, too, am getting the "Your computer's system firewall settings will prevent you from using Airtunes" message, but when I click "Ignore" I find that Airtunes works just fine.

Desktop Software crashes when clicking on "Configure Settings"
Hi,
I am a Blackberry newbie having bought my first one yesterday: a Bold 9780.
I installed the Desktop Software that came with the CD on my notebook running Windows 7 Professional. When Desktop Software started up after installation, I immediately got an error message that said "Rim.Desktop.Autoupdate has stopped working" and it then tries to search for a solution which didn't work.
However, Desktop Software managed to open up nicely despite that problem. In the main window, I went through the setup procedure as prompted. But when I got to "Organizer" and click on "Configure Settings...", it will attempt to do so but will crash with a message saying "Black Berry Desktop Software has stopped working". I have tried it several times and had the same response.
I have spent close to 8 hours through the night reading through all the message and forums here and on other websites and have tried countless ideas: clean uninstall and reinstall, register DLL files, etc. but nothing works. I have even tried installing the previous version 5.0.1 which also has some issues with being unable to open device database or something like that.
Getting this desktop software working is very important as I need to import all my work contacts from Outlook 2007 to my new 9780.
I am really at my wits end and would appreciate any help.
Thanks so much.Hi, thanks for the reply. I tried the steps mentioned at the sites you linked but none of them helped at all. Upon further searching, I found a KB article mentioning that the crashing issue has been escalated with no solution as yet. It recommended that DM 5.0.1 be used instead.
So I did a clean uninstall of Desktop Software 6, downloaded DM 5.0.1 and went through the setup as documented. Did a sync and encountered a new problem. I check through and found some articles that recommended I try to narrow down the problem. I managed to sync my "task" and "notes" list on Outlook 7 with the BB Bold 9780 with no issues. But when I tried to sync the "Calendar" and "Address Book", it failed. Opening the log file, I discovered this error:

Again I googled it and came up with nothing that worked. Stuff I tried:
1) Cleared the database using the "Advanced" function in "Backup and Restore" but that didn't help either.
2) Deleted the "IntelliSync" folder and re-configured the sync and tried it again. Nada.
3) Created a new empty profile on Outlook 2007 with no calendar or address book entries just in case there are some corrupted entries there, reconfigured DM 5.0.1 to sync from that and overwrite all data on my Bold 9780 and that didn't work either.
4) To be sure, I even tried to sync from Yahoo. And those DM did successfully log in, the same error as above pop up.
I would hazard a guess that DM 5.0.1 is not able to open the Bold 9870's database. Not sure why.
I think I should mention at this point that I am using Windows 7 Pro Edition and Outlook 2007. I am not using any enterprise nor any wireless sync. All I am trying to do is to get my address book and calendar entries onto that DARN Bold 9780 with the supplied cable.
I am thinking that maybe DM 5.0.1 may not be able to access the database on my Bold because it's running OS6.
Any ideas?
