Autodiscover best practice over multiple domains

Hi guys,
Domain A is a SME with Exchange 2007, recently installed 2010 and working in a mixed mode. All working well.
A company took over my company which looks after Domain A. A domain migration was done into Domain B, however the mail environment was left "as is" for now in the original domain.
So all objects are in a single domain (parent company), but we have the old domain A with the users mailboxes still.
Domain B is now about to deploy a 2010 infrastructure. Currently I use an SRV record on the split-brain internal DNS to sort out Autodiscover. I assume that when Domain B publishes their SCP into the domain that all the users sit on, my users (that have
their mail on Domain A still) will pickup the SCP and get errors....
So having everyone in domainb.com at the moment, but with a set of users having their mailboxes on domaina.org. Their SMTP is still domaina.org too. When domainb.com roles our their Ex2010 CAS and publishes an SCP how can I prevent my users from getting
tripped up.
How would / do you implement Autodiscover so different mail users in a single domain get put to their local CAS if using local domain email but gets pushed to a trusted domain if using a different email domain....?
Ideas welcome! :)
Thanks - Steve

Hi Steve,
Domain A migrated into domain B, and the legacy domain A still existing, right ?
“We have forwarders in domainb to resolve requests to domaina, and we have a stub in domaina to point back to domainb.”
How to do this ?  
By the way, what’s your goal ? And do you want the users log on via new CAS server ?

  • Best Practice for Multiple iTunes and One Account?

    My wife and I share our account for our iPhone Applications and Songs in iTunes.
    Can someone point me to a topic that covers a best practice for multiple iTunes syncing?
    I travel a lot and keep my iPhone synced to my Macbook Pro while she uses the workstation at home to sync to. We keep the addresses and contacts and calendars synced through MobileMe, however, I'm trying to find the best way of pushing applications and songs I've bought over to the other PC so they're still around while I'm traveling for her to sync with.
    Thoughts?

    Hi Steve,
    Might be trying for solution for a long time, If i understood your question clear let me clarify you few points.
    You are trying to access the bex query which is designed with the exit's in the background based on the logic and trying to call the entire dimensions and key-figures in a single connection. Then you are trying to map those data in the charts.
    Steve, try to make more connections based upon the logic and split them. use the same query but split them by sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week by making three different connections and try. You can merge the prompts from all connections.
    Hope this Helps!!!
    Sorry if i misunderstood your question.

  • Best practice - over issue of move orders in WIP

    Hi Business analyst guru's,
    I am working for a electronics manufacturing industry. I am trying to use work orders functionality across our organizations. I am stuck with a logic. Please advise me what you do in this scenario.
    BoM : I have a a board assembly which requires 10 components say one of each component on BoM.
    Setups:
    all component's WIP supply type is push, Supply subinventory blank for all BoM components
    Release backflush components is not enabled in WIP parameters.
    one fine day I want to build 100 board assemblies and created the work order for 100, and released the move order through compoentn pick release form with transaction type as WIP component issue.
    Now the warehouse picker went into warehouse to pick 100 of each component with a move order with 10 lines on it. 2 components are in reels which he can not split the reel and split reel can not be used in production floor (reel size is 1000). He can issue 1000 against on the move order
    Now all the material went into production and build the assembly by 100 units. But two reels are left over with 900 of each. here I can do a WIP component return against the job.
    But expectation is if I want to build another work order (say qty by 100 again) this 900 of two components should be available for the next work order. If I do component pick release, the move order should request only 8 components.
    Is this possible? If not what is the best practice to avoid WIP return transaction and avoid splitting the reel size?
    Thanks
    Veerakumar

    1) If you have these items as Push, you will get a move order line for 100. Therefore, even if you move a whole reel the floor, only 100 will get transacted out of warehouse. Someone will have to manually transact additional 900 to the floor otherwise your inventory accuracy will go for a toss.
    Have you considered making those items pull?
    1) As and when the worker needs reel, he raises a signal. (different ways of doing this - could be Oracle kanban, could be a visual signal, could be a holler - whatever works for you)
    2) You transfer 1000 to the fllor
    3) As and when jobs complete, the 100 units get issued to work order
    4) Whatever is left over (say 800 after the 2 work orders) and not needed is transferred back to warehouse and you do a subinv xfer transaction.
    2) If you can't make them pull, then you will be forced to move the 900 back to warehouse when the first job is done.
    3) If you can't make them pull, you do a component pick release (CPR) for multiple jobs at a time? You can group your pick tickets by destination operation. This way, upon component release, you will have 1 move order line with qty =200. The picker transacts the move order line for 200 and a subinv xfer to WIP for 800.
    4) Here is the best case scenario. Don't know if your floor layout or factory processes will support this.
    You make the items pull on BOM. You have a temporary holding area on the floor (aka supermarket) . When operator needs the item, a visual signal is raised. The supervisor (aka spider) checks the supermarket and brings a reel to the operator. Upon completing the job(s), whatever is left of the reel goes to the supermarket. Once the reel is no more needed for the day (or week or month), you do a subinv xfer from supermarket to warehouse of whatever is left. The components get issued to work order upon completion (of operation/assembly).
    Do the best you can out of this scenario. :)

  • Best Practice for VPC Domain failover with One M2 per N7K switch and 2 sups

    I Have been testing some failover scenarios with 4 nexus 7000 switches with an M2 and an F2 card in each. Each Nexus has two supervisor modules.
    I have 3 VDC's Admin, F2 and M2
    all ports in the M2 are in the M2 VDC and all ports on the F2 are in the F2 VDC.
    All vPC's are connected on the M2 cards, configured in the M2 VDC
    We have 2 Nexus representing each "site"
    In one site we have a vPC domain "100"
    The vPC Peer link is connected on ports E1/3 and E1/4 in Port channel 100
    The peer-keepalive is configured to use the management ports. This is patched in both Sups into our 3750s. (this is will eventually be on a management out of band switch)
    Please see the diagram.
    There are 2 vPC's 1&2 connected at each site which represent the virtual port channels that connect back to a pair of 3750X's (the layer 2 switch icons in the diagram.)
    There is also the third vPC that connects the 4 Nexus's together. (po172)
    We are stretching vlan 900 across the "sites" and would like to keep spanning tree out of this as much as we can, and minimise outages based on link failures, module failures, switch failures, sup failures etc..
    ONLY the management vlan (100,101) is allowed on the port-channel between the 3750's, so vlan 900 spanning tree shouldnt have to make this decision.
    We are only concerned about layer two for this part of the testing.
    As we are connecting the vPC peer link to only one module in each switch (a sinlge) M2 we have configured object tracking as follows:
    n7k-1(config)#track 1 interface ethernet 1/1 line-protocol
    n7k-1(config)#track 2 interface ethernet 1/2 line-protocol
    n7k-1(config)#track 5 interface ethernet 1/5 line-protocol
    track 101 list boolean OR
    n7k-1(config-track)# object 1
    n7k-1(config-track)# object 2
    n7k-1(config-track)# object 5
    n7k-1(config-track)# end
    n7k-1(config)# vpc domain 101
    n7k-1(config-vpc-domain)# track 101
    The other site is the same, just 100 instead of 101.
    We are not tracking port channel 101, not the member interfaces of this port channel as this is the peer link and apparently tracking upstream interfaces and the peer link is only necessary when you have ONE link and one module per switch.
    As the interfaces we are tracking are member ports of a vPC, is this a chicken and egg scenario when seeing if these 3 interfaces are up? or is line-protocol purely layer 1 - so that the vPC isnt downing these member ports at layer 2 when it sees a local vPC domain failure, so that the track fails?
    I see most people are monitoring upstream layer3 ports that connect back to a core? what about what we are doing monitoring upstream(the 3750's) & downstream layer2 (the other site) - that are part of the very vPC we are trying to protect?
    We wanted all 3 of these to be down, for example if the local M2 card failed, the keepalive would send the message to the remote peer to take over.
    What are the best practices here? Which objects should we be tracking? Should we also track the perr-link Port channel101?
    We saw minimal outages using this design. when reloading the M2 modules, usually 1 -3 pings lost between the laptops in the diff sites across the stretched vlan. Obviously no outages when breaking any link in a vPC
    Any wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
    Nick

    Nick,
    I was not talking about the mgmt0 interface. The vlan that you are testing will have a link blocked between the two 3750 port-channel if the root is on the nexus vPC pair.
    Logically your topology is like this:
        |                             |
        |   Nexus Pair          |
    3750-1-----------------------3750-2
    Since you have this triangle setup one of the links will be in blocking state for any vlan configured on these devices.
    When you are talking about vPC and L3 are you talking about L3 routing protocols or just intervaln routing.
    Intervlan routing is fine. Running L3 routing protocols over the peer-link and forming an adjaceny with an router upstream using L2 links is not recommended. Teh following link should give you an idea about what I am talking here:
    http://bradhedlund.com/2010/12/16/routing-over-nexus-7000-vpc-peer-link-yes-and-no/
    HSRP is fine.
    As mentioned tracking feature purpose is to avoid block hole of traffic. It completely depends on your network setup. Don't think you would be needing to track all the interfaces.

  • Best practice for multiple instances of the same BEX query

    Hi there,
    I'm wondering what's the best way to use multiple instances of the same BEX query. Let me explain what I mean:
    I have a dashboard with different queries feeding different period of time such as: week to date, month to date and so on. One query for each since it is based on a user exit.
    For each query I want to show different data in different sections of my dashboard. Per example: sales per directors or sales per customer group, sales per day, sales per week and the like.I tried to connect a simple bar chart via a direct connection but with no success due to the multiple lines generated by the addition of the sales director, customer group, week number and so on.
    My question is about the way to connect the different queries efficiently in order to show the different data while avoiding multiple useless lines.
    The image above shows the query browser where, per example, for a Month to date query there will be mutiple line for each week as well as one line for each director. If, for two different components, I want to show data per week and data per director or other representation what is the best practice:
    Add another instance of the same query and only put the week information and another one will only the director info?
    Should I bind those to the excel file and use formulas to make final calculations?
    Will there be a performance issues for adding different instances of the same query
    I have 6 different queries (read 6 user exit that filters time via user exit).
    Depending on the best practices there might be 4 instances for each for a total of 24 instances in the query browser.
    I hope my question is clear enough, if not please do not hesitate I'll clarify as much as possible.

  • DNS best practice in local domain network of Windows 2012?

    Hello.
    We have a small local domain network in our office. Which one is the best practice for the DNS: to setup a DNS in our network forwarding to public DNSs or directly using public DNS in all computers including
    server?
    Thanks.
    Selim

    Hi Selim,
    Definately the first option  "setup a DNS in our network forwarding to public DNSs " and all computers including server has local DNS configured
    Even better best practice would be, this local DNS points to a standalone DNS server in DMZone which queries the public DNS.
    Using a centralized DNS utilizes the DNS cache to answer similar queries, resulting in faster response time, less internet usage for repeated queries.
    Also an additional DNS layer helps protect your internal DNS data from attackers out in the internet.
    Using internal DNS on all the computer will also help you host intranet websites and accessibility to them directly. Moreover when you are on a AD domain, you need to have the computers DNS configured properly for AD authentication to happen.

  • Best practice for multiple email accounts

    Hello
    I have set up a Mac mini server with virtual hosts. So, how is the best practice to set up email accounts for each host? I want to have emails like
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    and
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    and so on.
    Should I create groups for each domain, and then user "info" and "contact" in each group. Or just add a user something like "infomysite1" and have a second short name "[email protected]"
    Advices are welcome
    Best regards, Magnus

    If user1@domain1 and user1@domain2 are the same person then you just add the other domain to Hosting-> Local Host Aliases. Same user will get all mail for both domains.
    However, I'm presuming that the user1@domain1 and user1@domain2 are two separate people (i.e., same name but different mail account). If so...
    See Chapter: A Mail Service Virtual Host in Apple's Mail Services Administration PDF download at http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/documentation.html
    Also, see MakingVirtual_Mail_Users_in_OS_XServer.pdf from http://osx.topicdesk.com (downloads sections)
    The topicdesk pdf was written for 10.5 server but I think it is still applicable to 10.6 (but follow the Apple doc just in case). However, it is good for explaining why you might want postfix-style aliases rather than the simpler Apple server-style aliases.

  • Best Practices for multiple authors using single project?

    We are having many issues, particularly with moving, renaming, and multiple check out warnings.  We have a single project with many authors and it seems like RH is not designed to work that way. There is an article in the RH devnet-archive in an article entitled "Sharing RoboHelp Project Among Multiple Authors" that says"
    "At first there may be the temptation to let every author work on every file in a project.  This is certainly not a best practice. Regardless of source contraol, it is always best to designate certain authors as owning certain content-related sections, folders, or topics within a project -particulary at the folder level."
    This statement, and our experience seems to indicate that RH is not a true CMS as we had envisioned.  What are the best practices for this scenario to avoid stepping on each others toes and having problems with source control.

    I have moved this to the source control forum for the gurus there to answer.
    Meantime I must admit I read that statement the same way as you first time. However, on rereading I think what the author is saying is not that what you want cannot be done, rather it is best practice to guide authors to work in discrete areas.
    I will leave it to the author or another guru to give you a more complete answer.

  • Best practice for multiple VIs talking to same PXI

    I am looking for a reccomended practice for my use case, which I feel has to be what a lot of people do/need.
    I have a NI-SCOPE PXI device, but this applies to most instruments on some level.  I have multiple VIs that do simple things, such as one VI that changes the horizontal settings, one VI that changes trigger settings, one VI that reads the current trace from the scope.  How can I have multiple VIs talk to the same instrument, some of them might even be called at the same time.
    Some more specifics about my use case is that I am calling these VIs from a web service, and the trace VI is called very frequently and streamed to the user (via the web service).  
    I was thinking of implementing a VI that would give me the VISA connection for the instrument and a semephore.  I would then have the VI doing the work aquire the semephore, make the instrument calls and then release the semephore.  Are there better or different ways?  Maybe something I am over looking with the semephore implementation?

    Typically for this sort of thing I would have a device handler VI which contains your VIs for talking to the instrument. This VI acts like a 'server' and does your device communications and then you can send commands to the device handler VI (e.g. via a queue/event) and it will return the result.
    I would implement this as a state machine (normally using queues) - states for initialising the device, a state for each action you want to perform and a close/shutdown state when your application finishes.

  • Best practices for multiple developers?

    I am currently working on a fairly large application. At this
    time, I have been the only developer on it, so it hasn't been a
    problem in keeping all of my files up to date or anything. However,
    I know in the future some new blood will be brought in to assist
    me. To this end, I'm looking for suggestions on the best ways to
    set up the project for multiple developers, especially in terms of
    using VSS.
    So far, I have the main HTML, JS, and FLA/SWF files located
    on a web server - easy enough to create a project in Flash and
    synch up with VSS. But what about the supporting .as files? The
    help files seem pretty straight-forward on this kind of thing, but
    I am curious about other people's experiences.
    Any suggestions for me? Thanks!

    HI,
    You can install it on one common desktop, for example you can use citrix program neighborhood. you can install a common desktop in citrix program neighborhood and every time you need to apply some patches you can apply over there. so that you dont need to install it on each and every users desktop. so who ever needs business objects client tools they will be accessing through citrix program neighborhood.
    I hope its clear.

  • MVC �Best Practice� (handling multiple views per action/event)

    Looking for the best approach for handling multiple views for one action/event class? Background: I have a small application using a basic MVC model, one controller servlet, multiple event classes, and multiple JSP views. For performance reasons, the controller Servlet is loaded once, and each event class is an instance within it. Each event has an �eventProcess()� and an �eventForward()� method called by the controller, standard stuff.
    However, because event classes should not use instance variables, how should I communicate which view to forward to should based upon eventProcess() logic (e.g. if error, error.jsp, if success, success.sjp)? Currently, there is only one view mapped per event, and I'm having to put error handling logic in the JSP, which goes against the JSP being for just view only.
    My though was 1) A session object/variable that the eventProcess() sets, and the eventForward() reads, or 2) Have eventProcess() return a mapping key and have the conroller lookup a view page based upon that key, as opposed to 1-1 event/view mapping.
    Would like your thoughts!
    Thanks
    bRi

    Your solution seems ok to me, but maybe the Struts framework from Apache
    that implements MVC for JSP is a better solution for you:
    http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/index.html
    You should take a look at it. It has in addition some useful taglibs that makes life much easier.
    We have successfully used it in a project with about 50 pages.

  • PC Convert - Configuring Mail & Best Practices for Multiple Users

    I finally came to the light side last night. I bought an iMac and now I'm trying to figure out how to best set it up for use by me and my wife. Our PC is set up with a single login account and I've created multiple Outlook (not Express) profiles, one for her and one for me.
    Can I do the same thing on the iMac? Am I better off creating multiple login accounts and just keeping everything separate? Being new, I would rather set things up the right way the first time and not have to undo things due to my lack of experience with iMac.
    Thanks!

    Hello,
    Welcome to the Discussions, and welcome to Macs!
    If you each wish not to see the email messages of the other, then your only real choice is to set up separate User Accounts (what you are calling login accounts). Of course using a single User Account, you can set both email accounts up in Mail, and if you keep the Inbox and Sent mailboxes expanded to show the separate Inbox (and Sent) for each account, then that works pretty well. It will not distinguish New Mail without looking in the the Inbox -- the red dot in the Dock will not separate for whom new mail has arrived. But the Address Book will be the same and shared.
    The advantage of multiple User Accounts is that the entire Dock can be customized for the applications each of you like to use, if they are different.
    The disadvantage will be in not sharing will include not sharing the Address Book, music and photo libraries, etc.

  • Best Practices for Multiple Forms-Reports Instances (WebLogic) on Win2008R2

    Hello all,
    I’ve succeeded in creating two instances of Forms/Report (FR) in WebLogic and am looking at about 5 or 6 FR instances on a one Windows Server 2008R2 box. I understand each instances will have its own folder (FR_Inst1) structure under the Middleware folder. Currently I have two instances configured each with its own Home (FR_Home1 & FR_Home2) and Domain (FR_Domain1 & FR_Domain2). Both the of the separate FP applications function correctly.
    Can multiple similar type instances share a single Home (FR_Home)? Can multiple similar type instances share a single Domain outside of the WebLogic Domain, such as FR_Domain?
    Thanks,
    Ron

    Thanx for the reply! I read through the documents and they are very good at explaining how to install the different components individually. I still can't find much on installing them together. I hope it's not just going to be a trial and error thing.
    So far I've installed done the following successfully:
    Installed 10.3.5 weblogic
    Forms and Reports 11g on top of 10.3.5
    I've created an additional managed server for our ADF applications.
    My next step is upgrading the JSF to 2.x. I would have to stage patches 12917525 and 12979653. I'm afraid it will break the forms and reports though. Any ideas?

  • Best practices managing multiple iPhoto librarys

    I think that my challege in managing multiple iPhoto libraries is shared by a lot of amateur photographers.  My wife and I both have Apple MacBook Airs and we both take and upload photos.  About every three months I merge the two iPhoto libraries with the iPhoto Library Manager.  Then I take the output of the merge and replace both MacBook iPhoto libraries.
    Thinking out loud, would it be easier and less labor intensive to have both my wife and I share the same library?  I remember reading a caution statement regarding the possible iPhoto file corruption when sharing.
    Any suggestions?

    Thinking out loud, would it be easier and less labor intensive to have both my wife and I share the same library?  I remember reading a caution statement regarding the possible iPhoto file corruption when sharing.
    The alternative would be to keep separate photo libraries - one for your wife and one for you.
    I found it much easier to haveseparate photo libraries and just share the best photos with the other family members, after they have been tagged and edited. Export them and give them the other family members to import them to their libraries. Or transfer them using a shared photo stream.
    This avoids fighting about which photos to keep and how to adjust the photos.
