Asking the mod to lock this thread.

I don't know where to turn to. I don't think it belongs to fissue at microsoft dot com, and I can't use the Abuse button as no one is in violation of COC.
So, I am posting my " lock this
thread " request here.
The thread in question has gone through 136 replies 235 Votes, and counting.
I don't think there is a computer matter that is so important that a 136 replies, and a highly questionable 235 Helpful Votes have not completely covered. Even a Homeland Security issue would have been settled with that many responses ( sarcastic
The only thing it will do now is occupying a spot which could have been used for a Real computer problem.
This is just my opinion.
Thank you.
Adding............
It would be real nice if the admins/owner set up a separate Discussion forum where people who love to talk without end can spend their time there, and people who come to TechNet solely for helping others will not have to be bothered by such
nonsense.

Well there are clearly a lot of people with opinions on where Microsoft should take the Windows user interface. I don't think that is surprising, and the discussion would seem to be on topic for that forum.
Is there any benefit in locking a thread just because it is very long? I would probably not post on a thread that is already that long as I would not expect many people to ever make it all the way down to read my post, but if I did would anyone be harmed?
I do agree that the points earned by the posts with many helpful votes are questionable. These opinion threads tend to generate large numbers of competing votes. Is the distortion of the (far from perfect) points system reason enough to lock threads like
this? I don't know (for that matter, I don't know if locking a thread prevents additional helpful votes).
[Edit in response to the suggestion of a separate forum for these posts] 
Does the existence of one discussion thread with a very high post count make it very much harder to find
questions that need to be answered?

  • Why doesn’t the MOD/PLSQL do this?

    When using database authentication the users of my htmlDB applications all have an actual Oracle Database account. The passwords are set to “Expire” every X number of days and all that stuff.
    When one of my users lets their password expire instead of asking them to change it like SQLPlus does it just given them a page not available error.
    Any idea how to get around this, while continuing to use database authentication?

    Hi Marco,
    Are you trying to mean that in OracleXe database authentication is available with HTMLDB means u can create any user have sysdba priveleges as HTMLDB admin and any database user to work with HTMLDB without having any workspace provision for the user ?

    It does appear to be a technical violation of the noncommercial TOS, but it seems to me it shouldn't be (that is, the TOS is too restrictive, this ought to be a reasonable thing to post). But that's how the TOS is, a potential hammer, hopefully to be pounded with sparingly.

  • I was referred to this site when I looked for answers to why I got Fatal Error message with error code c0000005 when trying to upload photos to my computer. I see that someone else asked the same question, 90 people viewed but no answer given?

    I was referred to this site when I got Fatal Error message Error code c0000005 while trying to upload photos to computer. Someone else asked the same question in this forum, 90 people viewed the question but it was never answered?

    It looks to me like it is a problem on your Windows computer not being able to start an application. See the following link to Microsoft Community support (although the specifics of the problem in that case may not be applicable) and also note all of the "Related Content" at the upper right side of that link (and there may be others if you search that forum). http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-system/the-applicatio n-is-unable-to-start-correctly/bbb9c037-77b3-4fae-93b9-ded70f7f9a17
    It may help if you know or can determine which program Windows is trying to open when you upload photos -- there can be many different ones and it can be set by the user. If you are using Windows 7, you may need to check your Autoplay settings. There are some instructions in the following link that may help and that discuss how you can use Windows Explorer to manually transfer the photos: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

    show cfs lock gives no output.
    Just to further clarify, we have 4 5548UP switches in the same management vlan. 2 switches are in one location lets say location A and they are CFS peers and are working fine.
    These two switches which are having problem are in location B. All the switches are in the same vlan. Essentially the all CFS multicast messages will be seen by all 5548 switches as they are in the same vlan. I am assuming that this might not create any problems as we specify the peers in the respective configurations. Or do we have to change the CFSoIPv4 multicast addresses in location B or may be configure a different region.
    Regards.

  • Ask the Expert: Single-Site and Multisite FlexPod Infrastructure

    With Haseeb Niazi and Chris O'Brien 
    Welcome to the Cisco Support Community Ask the Expert conversation. This is an opportunity to learn and ask questions about Single-Site and Multisite FlexPod Infrastructure with experts Haseeb Niazi and Chris O'Brien.
    This is a continuation of the live webcast.
    FlexPod is a predesigned and prevalidated base data center configuration built on Cisco Unified Computing System, Cisco Nexus data center switches, NetApp FAS storage components, and a number of software infrastructure options supporting a range of IT initiatives. FlexPod is the result of deep technology collaboration between Cisco and NetApp, leading to the creation of an integrated, tested, and validated data center platform that has been thoroughly documented in a best practices design guide. In many cases, the availability of Cisco Validated Design guides has reduced the time to deployment of mission-critical applications by 30 percent.
    The FlexPod portfolio includes a number of validated design options that can be deployed in a single site to support both physical and virtual workloads or across metro sites for supporting high availability and disaster avoidance. This session covers various design options available to customers and partners, including the latest MetroCluster FlexPod design to support a VMware Metro Storage Cluster (vMSC) configuration.
    Haseeb Niazi is a technical marketing engineer in the Data Center Group specializing in security and data center technologies. His areas of expertise also include VPN and security, the Cisco Nexus product line, and FlexPod. Prior to joining the Data Center Group, he worked as a technical leader in the Solution Development Unit and as a solutions architect in Advanced Services. Haseeb holds a master of science degree in computer engineering from the University of Southern California. He’s CCIE certified (number 7848) and has 14 years of industry experience.   
    Chris O'Brien is a technical marketing manager with Cisco’s Computing Systems Product Group.  He is currently focused on developing infrastructure best practices and solutions that are designed, tested, and documented to facilitate and improve customer deployments. Previously, O'Brien was an application developer and has worked in the IT industry for more than 20 years.
    Remember to use the rating system to let Haseeb and Chris know if you have received an adequate response. 
    Because of the volume expected during this event, Haseeb and Chris might not be able to answer every question. Remember that you can continue the conversation in the Data Center community, subcommunity Unified Computing shortly after the event. This event lasts through September 27, 2013.

    I would suggest you read this white paper which details the pros and cons of direct connect storage. 
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/partner/prod/collateral/ps10265/ps10276/whitepaper_c11-702584.html   This paper captures all the major design points for Ethernet and FC  protocols.
    I would only add that in FlexPod we are trying to create a highly  available solution and "flexible" solution; Nexus switching helps us  deliver on both with vPC and unified ports.
    NPV equats  to end-host mode which allows the system to present all of the servers  as N ports to the external fabric.  In this mode, the vHBAs are pinned  to the egress interfaces of the fabric interconnects.  This pinning  removes the potential of loops in the SAN fabric.  Host based multipathing of the  vHBAs account for potential uplink failures.  The NPV mode (end-host  mode) simplifies the attachment of UCS into the SAN fabric and that is  why it is in NPV mode by default.
    So for your last question, I will have to put my  Product Manager hat on so bear with me.   First off there is no drawback  to enabling the NPIV feature (none that I am aware of) the Nexus 5000  platform simply offers you a choice to design and support multiple FC  initiators (N-Ports) per F-Port via NPIV.  This allows for the  integration of the FI end-host mode described above.  I  imagine being a  unfied access layer switch, the Nexus team enabled standard Fibre  Channel switching capability and features first.  The implementatin of  NPIV is a customer choice based on their specific access layer  requirements.

    Hi Marcelo,
       Yes, there are some requirements for certificates in Expressway.
    Expressway Core (Exp-C)
    - Can be signed by either External or Internal CA
    - Better to use a cluster name even if you start with 1 peer in Exp-C cluster. In the future, if more peers are added, changes would be minimal.
    - Better to use FQDN of cluster as CN of certificate, this way the traversal zone configuration on Expressway-E won't require any change even if new peers are added to Exp-C cluster.
    - If CUCM is mixed mode, include security profile names (in FQDN format) as Subject Alternate Names
    - The Chat Node Aliases that are configured on the IM and Presence servers. They will be required only for Unified Communications XMPP federation deployments that intend to use both TLS and group chat. (Note that Unified Communications XMPP federation will be supported in a future Expressway release). The Expressway-C automatically includes the chat node aliases in the CSR, providing it has discovered a set of IM&P servers.
    - For TLS b/w CUCM, IM-P & Exp-C
      + If using self-signed certificates on CUCM, IM/P. Load Cisco Tomcat, cup, cup-xmpp certificates from IM-P on Exp-C. Load callmanager, Cisco Tomcat certificates from CUCM on Exp-C.
      + If using Internal CA signed certificates on CUCM, IM/P. Load Root CA certificates on Exp-C.
      + Load CA certificate under tomcat-trust, cup-trust, cup-xmpp-trust on IM-P.
      + Load CA certificate under tomcat-trust, callmanager-trust on CUCM.
    Expressway Edge (Exp-E)
    - Signed by External CA
    - Configured Unified Communications domain as Subject Alternate Name
    - If using a cluster, select FQDN of this peer as CN and FQDN of Cluster + this peer as Subject Alternate Name.
    - If XMPP federation is being deployed, enter the same Chat Node Aliases as entered in Exp-C.
    For more details, please refer to the Certificate Creation Guide for Cisco Expressway x8.1.1

AFTER THAT OPEN THE TFTP WHICH WILL BE ON DESKTOP , DOUBLE CLICK IT AND COME TO current directory and brows the IOS IMAGE FILE where you save that and select that it will then comes to the current directory , now below current directory you will see server interface , in front of that you will have to click show dir and see that the IOS file can be seen .
    STEP 5. COME TO THE SWITCH AGAIN , GO in enable mode.
    Type this.
                       Copy tftp flash. Push enter
                     It will ask you the name and address of remote host ?
    Give the IP ADDRESS of the system , 1.1.1.2 and push enter .
    Now it will ask you about the source file name ?
    Copy the file name from pc where the IOS IMAGE which is saved on the PC and past on the switch and type.bin in the end and push enter.
    Now the SWITCH will ask you about the destination file name , you can create your own name or use the same default name that is saved on the PC which you copy past on switch , after entering the name push enter. NOW WAIT FOR 10 MINUTES IF IT WILL ASK YOU SOMETHING PUSH ENTER AND WAIT FOR THE IMAGE TO UPLOAD.
    AFTER THAT COME TO THE enable mode and type wr  and the type reload and wait for the reboot process, in case you are using same destination file name as kept on the pc otherwise. Look below
    If you have create your own choice name then,
    Come to configuration mode , by typing config terminal push enter.
    Type this command
       Boot system switch all flash:/new name that you have created and type.bin in the end push enter.
    Now type exit come to the enable mode .
    Type WR push enter.
    Now run these commands for verification.
    Show boot. ( after running this command check if the file name of the IOS is there then its ok )
    Dir flash. ( after running this command check if the file name of the IOS is there then its ok )
    Now TYPE THE LAST COMMAND
    Reload and allow the switch to reboot and wait .

    FAQ

    Is there a Cisco lab available for ASR 9000
    we have "XR4U" stations coming available soon when XR 511 comes alive. The plan is for a downloadable play image like that. In the interim we have 2 demo systems available, and they can be booked via your account manager representative.
    How will MOD160 perform with multiple 9000NVS?
    very well. the mod 160 has 4 NPU's, 2 per bay. So if you have a 4x10 MPA to serve a satellite, you effectively have a single NPU per 20 1Gigs from the satellite. The pps performance will be stellar. However it might be price technically more ideal to connect satellite with a 36x10. Since the MOD-x has native MPA's with 1G also.
         2. Is there a shortcut for a Bundle-EthernetX interface, such as port-channel interface (poX), in Cisco IOS® ?.
    usability enhancement is there, we are trying to push this into a new reasonable release. follow CSCuh04526
         3. What  is the revolutions per minute (RPM) on these hard disk drives (HDDs)  compared to the solid state drives (SDDs)? Will the spinning drives be  slow?
    depends on the type we had avaialble at time of production, you will see different sizes and disks on the RSP2. the rpm of the HD is not so much an issue as much as the buffered writing we used to do in XR. This is fixed up with XR43 where the disk writing performance is much better. the HD/SDD is used for logging storage only (and maybe your pictures) but other then that we're not that concerned with write perf of the HD.

    Hi Expert,
                     Before all, thank you for your great advice and helps. I've decided to implement a few of them. However, during preliminary test , i run into some issues. Hopefully, you will be able to help one last time.
    During my test, I implemented a few SSID wich worked fine in my lab with WEP encryption. And i decided to change the encryption, some of the SSID did work with wpa2. However, two remains my attention, the guess SSID which uses wpa with tkip and one of the test SSID. The guess SSID worked fine untill I decided to reload the AP. When the AP came back it could not grabs an ip, but sho commands shows that it is associate with the AP. See below. I am 100% certain that the config is correct as it was working fine before the reload.
    a) Show commands

    Can the radio interface get mess by the reload? How can I verify theradio? Debug did not show Client asking for IP...
    3. My last question, my ACLs to limit guess access. Should i implement them in my firewall or in my distribution router? The distribution router has a sub_interface for each SSID. Would it be better  to block traffic right from the distribution router rather let unecessary traffic flow to the network?
    Thanks a lot for great advice and guidance,

  • Ask the Expert: C-Series Integration with Cisco Unified Computing System Manager

    Welcome to the Cisco Support Community Ask the Expert conversation. This conversation is an opportunity to learn and ask questions about Cisco C-Series Integration with Cisco Unified Computing System® Manager (Cisco UCS® Manager) with Cisco experts Vishal Mehta and Manuel Velasco.
    Cisco UCS C-Series Rack-Mount Servers are managed by the built-in standalone software, Cisco Integrated Management Controller (Cisco IMC). When a C-Series rack-mount server is integrated with Cisco UCS Manager, the IMC no longer manages the server. Instead you will manage the server using the Cisco UCS Manager GUI or Cisco UCS Manager command-line interface (CLI).
    Cisco UCS Manager 2.2 provides three connectivity modes for Cisco UCS C-Series Rack-Mount Server management. The following are the connectivity modes:
    Dual-wire management (shared LAN On Motherboard [LOM]): Shared LOM ports on the rack server are used exclusively for carrying management traffic.A separate cable connected to one of the ports on the Payment Card Industry Express (PCIe) card carries the data traffic.
    SingleConnect (Sideband): Using Network Controller Sideband Interface (NC-SI), the Cisco UCS Virtual Interface Card 1225 (VIC1225) connects one cable that can carry both data and management traffic.
    Direct Connect Mode: Cisco UCS Manager Version 2.2 introduces an additional rack server management mode using direct connection to the Fabric Interconnect.
    Vishal Mehta is a customer support engineer for Cisco’s Data Center Server Virtualization Technical Assistance Center (TAC) team based in San Jose, California. He has been working in the TAC for the past 3 years with a primary focus on data center technologies such as Cisco Nexus® 5000, Cisco UCS, Cisco Nexus 1000V, and virtualization. He presented at Cisco Live in Orlando 2013 and will present at Cisco Live Milan 2014 (BRKCOM-3003, BRKDCT-3444, and LABDCT-2333). He holds a master’s degree from Rutgers University in electrical and computer engineering and has CCIE® certification (number 37139) in routing and switching and service provider.
    Manuel Velasco is a customer support engineer for Cisco’s Data Center Server Virtualization TAC team based in San Jose, California.  He has been working in the TAC for the past 3 years with a primary focus on data center technologies such as Cisco UCS, Cisco Nexus 1000V, and virtualization.  Manuel holds a master’s degree in electrical engineering from California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly) and CCNA® and VMware VCP certifications.

    Hello Sebastian,
    The different modes of connecting C-Series with UCSM come into play depending on the type of infrastructure you already have along with C-Series and NIC model.
    Cisco UCS C-Series Rack-Mount Servers are managed by the built-in standalone software, Cisco Integrated Management Controller (CIMC) .
    Powerful features provided by Cisco UCS Manager can be leveraged to manage C-Series server by integrating  C-Series Rack-Mount Server with UCSM.
    This not only gives you rich-feature set but also one management plane to operate UCS-B Series Chassis and UCS-C Series Rack Server.
    You will manage the server using the Cisco UCS Manager GUI or Cisco UCS Manager CLI.
    Cisco UCS Manager 2.2 provides three connectivity modes for Cisco UCS C-Series Rack-Mount Server management.
    The following are the connectivity modes:
    •  Dual-wire Management (Shared LOM):
    Shared LAN on Motherboard (LOM) ports on the rack server are used exclusively for carrying management traffic. A separate cable connected to one of the ports on the PCIe card carries the data traffic. Using two separate cables for managing data traffic and management traffic is also referred to as dual-wire management.

    This mode is recommended when you have C-Server which does not  have or cannot support VIC 1225 card (such C-200 server)
    •  SingleConnect (Sideband):
    Using Network Controller Sideband Interface (NC-SI), Cisco UCS VIC1225 Virtual Interface Card (VIC) connects one cable that can carry both data traffic and management traffic.
    This feature is referred to as SingleConnect.
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/c-series_integration/ucsm2-2/b_C-Series-Integration_UCSM2-2/b_C-Series-Integration_UCSM2-2_chapter_011.html
    This most recommended Integration model when using FEX and VIC 1225 card
    •  Direct Connect Mode:
    Cisco UCS Manager release version 2.2 introduces an additional rack server management mode using direct connection to the Fabric Interconnect.
    This mode will eliminate the need for FEX module as Servers are directly plugged into the base ports of Fabric Interconnect
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/unified_computing/ucs/c-series_integration/ucsm2-2/b_C-Series-Integration_UCSM2-2/b_C-Series-Integration_UCSM2-2_chapter_0110.html
