Automating the Patch Process for a group of servers.

Hey Team,
We have SCCM & SCOM 2012 is place.
We are looking for automating the server patching only for a group of serves  and also to ensure patch kickoff times between scheduled maintenance period for ex. between 04:00 AM to 06:00
AM on Mondays.
Process required:
1. The server should enter into Maintenance Mode by 04:00 AM
2. Stop a particular service (production impact service).
3. Patch all the required updates and reboot the servers once all patches are updated.
4. The server should come out of maintenance mode at 06:00 AM
please let me know how best we can fulfilll this requirement.

I did a presentation on that back in 2012 -
http://vimeo.com/nicconf/review/35066199/f133f8e788 It's using ConfigMgr and SCORCH to make it Work.

  • Automating the Creation Process for 1 video for 1000s?

    Here's what I want to do, but I don't know if it's possible:
    For my company, I have designed a fairly simple motion graphics type video for various products that we sell online. It involves the image of the project, some descriptions of it and a title, with some simple movement and transitions with music underneath. The problem though is that we have 1000s of products. Is there a way to create, buy, or have written a script that will be able to take the template project that i've created and use it to do a similar thing with the 1000s of other products (over a long time, presumably)? Just replace the image and text with text and image in a predetermined location.
    Does this make sense? Is it possible? If so, how?
    If not, what other approaches would you guys suggest to approaching this problem?
    Thanks a lot.
    William

    hi william!
    in short: yes.
    what you're asking for is very much possible, and actually not too complicated to do.
    i would recommend using AE's javaScript interface and not the C++ API.
    it's one hell of a lot easier to develop and also to adjust, and it has all the facilities you need.
    in essence:
    1. you supply a file with a list of the data you want to input to each product. (i.e. file names, text, ect...)
    2. the script parses that file and iterates though the entries, each time importing the base project and replacing the footage and text.
    3. either render each project and move to the next, or create a big project containing any number of the entries and render it all together.
    4. tada!

  • Getting the first row for each group

    Hi Everyone,
    I have a query which returns a number of rows, all of which are valid. What I need to do is to get the first row for each group and work with those records.
    For example ...
    client flight startairport destairport stops
    A fl123 LGW BKK 2
    A fl124 LHR BKK 5
    B fl432 LGW XYZ 7
    B fl432 MAN ABC 8
    .... etc.
    I would need to return one row for Client A and one row for Client B (etc.) but find that I can't use the MIN function because it would return the MIN value for each column (i.e. mix up the rows). I also can use the rownum=1 because this would only return one row rather than one row per group (i.e. per client).
    I have been investigating and most postings seem to say that it needs a second query to look up the first row for each grouping. This is a solution which would not really be practical because my query is already quite complex and incorporating duplicate subqueries would just make the whole thing much to cumbersome.
    So what I really new is a "MIN by group" or a "TOP by group" or a "ROWNUM=1 by group" function.
    Can anyone help me with this? I'm sure that there must be a command to handle this.
    Regards and any thanks,
    Alan Searle
    Cologne, Germany

    Something like this:
    select *
    from (
       select table1.*
       row_number() over (partition by col1, col2 order by col3, col4) rn
       from table1
    where rn = 1In the "partition by" clause you place what you normally would "group by".
    In the "order by" clause you define which will have row_number = 1.
    Edit:
    PS. The [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17118/functions004.htm#i81407]docs have more examples on using analytical functions ;-)

  • Guidelines required to analyze the extraction process for 2LIS_02_SCL.

    Hi All,
    I have a problem here regarding the extraction process for the DataSource 2LIS_02_SCL. The values posted by date fields like
    Posting Date (0PSTNG_DATE)
    Schedule Line Delivery Date (0SCL_DELDAT)
    Statistics Date  (0STAT_DATE)
    In BW are suspected to be wrong values.
    So I am supposed to check the extraction process for PO Schedule Line (2LIS_02_SCL).
    So how can I proceed with this analysis in BW side as well as in SAP R/3.
    Can anyone please help with the process.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    In Bw thre is always confusion about following Dates.
    Posting Date (0PSTNG_DATE)
    Schedule Line Delivery Date (0SCL_DELDAT)
    Statistics Date (0STAT_DATE)
    So ask Functional Consultants and Business USers and Identify the corretc Date in ECC and then Change the Mapping In UPdate Rules in BW. i.e. What date USer is wanting and accordingly we nee dtgo change the mapping in UPdate Rules in Time Char Tab in UpdateRules.
    Thanks

  • The parallel process for mrp.

    hi exports
    we plan to do the scope of planning for the total planning as a background job.
    while doing that system ask for the parallal processing for mrp
    what is customize step and procedure to do the parallel process for mrp.

    Dear Raj,
    With the help of parallel processing procedures, you can significantly improve the runtime of the total planning run.
    To process in parallel, you can either select various sessions on the application server or various servers.
    Parallel processing runs according to packages using the low-level code logic:
    The work package, with a fixed number of materials that are internally defined in the program, is distributed over the individual servers/sessions. Once a server/session has finished processing a package, it starts processing the next package.
    If a low-level code is being planned, the servers/sessions that have finished must wait until the last server/session has finished its package to avoid inconsistencies. Then the next low-level code is processed per packages.
    The parallel processing procedure is switched on in the initial screen of total planning.
    Activities
    Define the application server with the number of sessions that can be used:
    If you want to define various servers for parallel processing, enter the server with the number of sessions.
    If you only want to use one server, but several sessions, enter the application server and the appropriate number of sessions.
    Further notes
    Parallel processing shortens the time required for calculation, however, it cannot shorten the database time as the system still only operates using one database.
    The Customizing Transaction is   OMIQ

  • Enabling the wiki service for a group not working

    Hey all,
    I am getting my server up and running and I have the following services: AFP, DNS, and Web. I am currently trying to enable the use of a Wiki but am running into some problems. I have enabled Wiki and blog in the Web Services in Server Admin and I have added the groups I wish to be able to use the Wiki. When I go to Workgroup Manager, I get stuck. In the Accounts tab and the group I am trying to give access to, I attempt to use the pulldown tab to "Enable the following serves for this group on:" I would like to get the pulldown to be set on "Default web site of server17.pretendco.com, but I cannot even use the pulldown. It is grayed over, and I cannot change the settings.
    I am using the Administrator account, so I should be able to change that. Any ideas?
    Thanks
    Pat

    Hi
    The reason the option is grayed out for your users is because your server is not an OD Master. Wiki, Blog and iCal won't be available unless this happens first.
    Page 61 Web Technologies Admin Manual
    Wiki will not work without a local Open Directory master. Your server can be connected
    to another directory server simultaneously, but for wiki to work, your server must be an
    Open Directory master. For more information, see Open Directory Administration.
    You can download the relevant manuals from here:
    http://images.apple.com/server/macosx/docs/WebTechnologies_Adminv10.5.pdf
    http://images.apple.com/server/macosx/docs/OpenDirectory_Admin_v10.5_2ndEd.pdf
    Other manuals may also be of use:
    http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/
    Open Directory requires a tested and configured Internal DNS Service resolving on the forward and reverse lookups. DNS does not need to be running on the server itself just as long as it is running on a server on the same network. Don't confuse internal DNS Services with the external ones you are used to.
    Tony

  • Wiki has no groups: 'Enable the following services for this group' is None

    Our Leopard Server is an OD Master and have followed the Wiki setup procedure detailed in the Web Services Overview PDF. Believe I have got that part configured correctly and am able to access the web/wiki frontend on our Intranet.
    Issue is that I am unable to get any groups to be available on the Wiki and therefore cannot actually do anything.
    I believe it is an issue with the 'Enable the following services for this group' setting as it always displays None.
    I have read various posts/discussions but am no wiser as to the issue.
    Sorry if this is a noob question, any help gratefully received.
    Matt

    Your not alone, I have this exact same problem.
    I'm running a fully working BIND 9 and OD Master, so that's not your issue. My groups are without a doubt in the /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 domain.
    When I connect with Directory.app, all services are grayed out and cannot be enabled. If I attempt to enable them in WGM they appear to apply when I hit save, but if I focus another group and come back it says (None).
    My logs are below:
