Areca controller for the x2100 fire server

Hi
We just purchased the sun x2100 server, for the purpose of hosting some applications on the linux platform. Unfortunaly the nvraid controller is not well supported on the centos (red hat enterprise clone), and therefore we cannot get raid1 with failover to work on this server.
I have searched the market and found that the areca ARC-1210 controller to be a well supported controller on centos and other linux distros, and allso the best hardware raid controller for the pci-E port.
We have previously used 3ware controllers for this purpose, but amcc has not produced any controllers for the pci-e port.
Have anyone here any experiences with the areca controller on the x2100 server ? Its very important for us ta have a solid well working raid1 solution with failover and quick init restore while server is operative.

the areca controllers seem to have massive problems on the x2100 M2 (tested with areca 1210). Without disks attached to the controller the x2100 might boot (in some cases) but with disks attached to the controller it always fails. it couldbe / seems there is an interrupt problem (usb using irq15, controller using irq15).
this is even worse since areca is a very well supported controller on alot plattforms and the onboard nvidia fraid doesnt seem to work at all (rebuilding/state detection).
late reply, but better late then never :)

The box indicating that this domain controller is the last controller for the domain is unchecked. However, no other Active Directory domain controllers for that domain can be contacted

I have 2 domain controllers running 2003 server, server1 and server2. I ran dcpromo on server1 and removed AD and removed him from the domain and disconnected from network. I then added a 2012 server
with the same name and IP address server1 with no problem. Replication from sites and services work fine on both controllers.
The new 2012 server1 is GC. I transferred all FSMO roles to server1. Again no problem and replicating using sites and services. AD on server1 is populated correctly.
Now what I had intended on doing was a dcpromo to remove server2 from the domain so I can then add another 2012 server. That is when I get the: "The box indicating that this domain controller is the last controller for the domain
is unchecked. However, no other Active Directory domain controllers for that domain can be contacted.
I have DNS installed on both servers and both look good with replicating there. Strange thing is when on the 2012 server within DNS if I right click and connect to another DNS server I can add server2 just fine but from server2 adding server1 it tells me it
is not available.
Help please!

Hi,
As there is server 2012 DC (SERVER1) DC is operational in a domain then "This domain controller is the last controller for the domain" should be remain unchecked when you demote SERVER2 DC.
If you are getting error "Active Directory domain controllers for that domain can be contacted" while demoting SERVER2 DC then check the DNS pointing on both as per below article, disable windows firewall on all DC, less possiblities but worth to check if both
are different site then check the ports are open on firewall.

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/584.active-directory-replication-over-firewalls.aspx
run “ipconfig /flushdns & ipconfig /registerdns“, restart DNS server and NETLOGON service on each DC and try to demote server2 DC.
If issue reoccurs, post dcdiag /q result.
NOTE: If initial replication was completed between both DC (new 2012 and old DC) then you may remove the server2 DC from Active Directory forcefully (DCPROMO /FORCEREMOVAL) and perform metadata cleanup.

Hi,
Did you get this error when clicking on the Populate Containers button?
If yes, please make sure that you have provide the domain credentials in the account name and password
boxes below when entering the domain information. The account must be granted the replicating directory changes permission on the domain.

Create a defaut view for the MS Project Server 2010 client

Dear Forum,
how can I create a defaut view for the MS Project Server 2010 client?
I saved a template and set a default view under File -> Options ->Project View. I also did the same in the checked-out enterprise global. If I then close the client and re-open it my default view changes back again to the previous one (not the view
I set as a default view).
What explains this behaviour and what can I do? Any hints?
Thank you very much for your help!

Scheduler007 --
The view you selected by clicking File > Options > Project View is the default view for every new project you create from a blank project template. This is a global option, so setting it from the checked out Enterprise Global file serves no purpose.
When you select a view as your default view, you will see that view applied to the blank project that is opened when you launch Microsoft Project 2010, and you will see it applied if you create new blank projects. If you create enterprise templates for
people to use in your organization, you should simply apply the view to the template that you want as the default so that users will see this view immediately when they create a new project from the template. In addition, if you apply a view to an open
project, close and check in the project, and then reopen the project, you will see the last view applied in that project (as Guillaume correctly points out).
Beyond this, there is no method possible for the Project Server administrator to specify a default view for the Microsoft Project application used by the project managers in your organization. This is an option each PM must set. Hope this helps.

Error when installing 9.0.1.4.0 patch set for the Oracle Database Server.

Hi to all.
Currently, i am trying to install patches for portal server.
The server OS is Sun Solaris 8.
We are using Oracle9iAS.
Now, we are installing 9.0.1.4.0 patch set for the Oracle Database Server.
We managed to install the patch, but have problem with the Post Install Action.
We managed to run
-ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
-@rdbms/admin/catpatch.sql
-ALTER SYSTEM DISABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
-CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
-update obj$ set status=5 where type#=29 and owner#!=0;
-commit;
But, when we come to the next command, which is to shutdown, it gives us like
this..
SQL> update obj$ set status=5 where type#=29 and owner#!=0;
1402 rows updated.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> shutdown immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01219: database not open: queries allowed on fixed tables/views only
We tried to startup the database..it gives us this error..
SQL> startup
ORA-01081: cannot start already-running ORACLE - shut it down first
So, we tried to shutdown again..
SQL> shutdown immediate
ORA-01089: immediate shutdown in progress - no operations are permitted
I been informed that this is maybe a Database problem related. Any ideas?
Best Wishes,

Patchsets could be obtained (only) from http://metalink.oracle.com
You need to have valid CSI for access.

What are the network requirements for the Remote Panel Server?

What are the network requirements for the Remote Panel Server?
I've been trying for a while now to setup a Remote Panel. I can connect to my computers remote panel from other computers on my LAN but nowhere else.
When ever I use the web publishing tool it gives me a URL in this format: http://Computer-Name.Corporate-Name.local:8086/VI-Name.html Apparently this means I have a local DNS server and this URL has no meaning from the public.
When I try connecting with the Operate>>Connect to Remote Panel..., I get this error message:
"Connecting to remote panel server...
Remote panel connection refused by specified server: Make sure LabVIEW Web Server is enabled on specified server"
I got the same error when I tried to host a remote panel from my laptop at home, on my Wi-Fi. Is there some network or firewall setting I'm not seting? Could it be my server or router or private network?
My goal is to be able to host Remote Panels from my laptop while I am travailing internationally, by using 4G mobile internet. Is that even passable?
Solved!

Have you enabled the Remote Panel Server in the Web Server options on the server?

Hibernate mapping XML files for the two SQL Server tables below.

Hello all..,
Question 1:
I am working on a project that needs to support a database with an inherited legacy schema that you cannot change. The schema is provided below.Hibernate mapping XML files for the two SQL Server tables below. Please provide those two XML files. Assume some hypothetical package and class names. Assume that no "fancy" stuff such as lazy initialization, optimistic locking etc is needed at this time.
CREATE TABLE [SURVEY_ANSWERS] (
[ANSWER_ID] [int] IDENTITY (1,1) NOT NULL,
[QUESTION_ID] [int] NOT NULL,
[POSITION] [int] NULL,
[TEXT] [varchar](350) NULL
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] (
      [QUESTION_ID] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL ,
      [TEXT] [varchar] (350) NULL
GO
ALTER TABLE SURVEY_ANSWERS
ADD CONSTRAINT pk_SURVEY_ANSWERS PRIMARY KEY(ANSWER_ID,QUESTION_ID);
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] ADD
       PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
            [QUESTION_ID]
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[SURVEY_ANSWERS] ADD
       FOREIGN KEY
            [QUESTION_ID]
      ) REFERENCES [dbo].[SURVEY_QUESTIONS] (
            [QUESTION_ID]
      )Question 2:
Assume that you are working on a project developing, say, a banking application. You are the Architect and thinking that Hibernate ORM should be used for the entire access to the relational database. As usual, you have created (or auto-generated) a set of HBM XML files as well as POJOs for which you define the mappings. Assume now that a new requirement has just popped up. The system needs to be able to import new bank accounts and user information in bulk from a very large XML file at once and store it in the database. Assume the XML file contains all necessary information to populate fields in database tables. As performance is very important for this operation. Given this description, how would you approach the problem?
Please describe briefly.
-Thanks and regards

How to study for the MCSA: SQL Server Exams?

Hi guys,
Forgive me if this question has already been answered but I'm simply trying to find out the best way to tackle the three exams required for the MCSA in SQL Server. I read a blog post on the Pluralsight website which, in discussing the MCSA in Windows
Server, it was advised that the best approach is to study for all three exams rather than one at a time as there's a certain amount of overlap.
My question is does this apply to SQL Server 2012 too? Or would it be bets to study for, and take, the three exams separately and one at a time? I'm just completing the Trainsignal (now Pluralsight) SQL Server 2012 Administration Essentials 28-video course
and was just about to begin going through the equivalent book when I read the blog post.
My background is mainly in desktop/server support (10years following an IT degree) and before now, have had no real exposure to SQL Server. I was asked about a year ago by my current manager to "keep an eye" on the SQL instances we have and began
by replicating the our fail-over cluster in a virtual environment for testing purposes and to gain an understanding of the set-up. I've since developed a keen interest in SQL Server and plan to get certified...
Many thanks in advance.
Marcus.
Exams are:
1
Querying Microsoft SQL Server 2012
2

3

Hello,
My humble recommendation is to study for each exam one at a time. I found 70-461 most difficult exam of SQL Server I have
taken to this date for its XML content and the extent of the exam. Go for 70-461 first.
You will find tips and recommendations on the following Channel 9 resources:

The language setting is related to the database user.
BOL: "DEFAULT_LANGUAGE = { NONE | <lcid> | <language name> | <language alias> }
Specifies the default language for the new user. If a default language is specified for the user and the default language of the database is later changed, the users default language remains as specified.
If no default language is specified, the default language for the user will be the default language of the database. If the default language for the user is not specified and the default language of the database is later changed, the default
language of the user will change to the new default language for the database."

Correct MYSQL settings for the local akonadi server

Hello!
I am on KDE 4.11 and it runs quite good after some polish.
But I am still hitting some problems with akonadi ...
My configuration is set to use my running mysql server on localhost.
So the akonadiserver is set to NOT use akonadi internal mysql but instead use the localhost mysql with a akonadi database within it. Works nice and seems to be much quicker than the internal solution but I might be wrong on that.
But after a while leaving my box running I run into problems (I guess it's stuff like the "wait_timeout" for the mysql server is set to only 8 hours and the optimizations in the "/usr/share/config/akonadi/mysql-global.conf" seem not to be apllied.)
My questions are:
1. I don't want to edit my global "/etc/mysql/my.conf" file so how can I be sure that the user file
"/home/.config/akonadi/mysql-local.conf" (a copy of mysql-global.conf) is applied to the connection of akonadi with the database.
2. Is there any good (and not outdated) information that I missed on the configuration of akonadi with external (though local) mysql? ... or is this simply not advisable to use noninternal mysql at this stage with KDE?
thx for any help (and for reading),
piedro

Miguel,
A quick way to see if everything is working without pulling your hair out is to click the machine name in the login dialog window (below "Mac OS X" and above the "Name:" box). This will cause the display to cycle between a number of parameters, one of which will have a green indicator if Network Accounts (client logins via OD) are available. In order to get the green indicator, everything has to be working (the computer has to be bound to the OD, the server has to be found, etc.).
Hope this helps,

[Tabular] Only an admin for the database (not server) -- can I push changes?

I recently created a PowerPivot workbook that got pushed out to my enterprise's tabular server. And while our current IT policies keep me from being able to be an SSAS Administrator, I
did get included in the Admin role for the database itself (not the server.) And that's where I'm a little lost.
The database permissions for the Admin role are set for Full control, Process database, and Read. And yes, I can read and process the database. But is it possible for me to make any changes to the model itself? The only way I could think of to make changes
was to suck the model back down into Visual Studio, edit, and redeploy. But it looks like deploying requires being an Admin of the
server to push the metadata.
I'd love to know if I'm understanding things correctly.
Thanks so much,
Henson
**EDIT** Looking at this page, it seems that all you can really do on a database level is delete it or change the properties, not the model itself: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175596.aspx

Hi Techhenson,
According to your description, you want to know if you can change the SQL Server Analysis Services tabular model as a database administrator, right?
I have tested it on my local environemnt, as a database administrator, we can change the tabular model properties in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). If we need to change the structure of the tabular model, we need to create a Import Project to import
the model on SQL Server Data Tolls (SSDT), and then modify the model and redeploy it to the server.
