Best DSfW Design for new small Tree

I looking to build a replacement tree and server infrastructure for a small network, 80-90 users at a single location, with the possibility of adding 1 or 2 additional locations in the future. I want/need to make it as Active Directory friendly as possible for use by Microsoft SQL Server and VMware View. The current tree structure is O=parent company down to OU=company down to OU=city and then OUs for each server (file, print, and email) and OU=users for users, groups, profiles, and templates.
Ex: someuser.users.moosejaw.rocketpacks.acme for a user. fileserver.moosejaw.rocketpacks.acme for a server OU.
My question is do I do a name-mapped install or a non-name-mapped install for maximum AD compatibility, I can design the tree however best suits the task so whichever approach makes the most sense works for me.
Oh, FYI, fully virtualized infrastructure VMware vSphere 5.1, single purposed virtual servers for each task, DsfW, File, Print, SQL, etc...
Thanks,
Tracy

tcarlton sounds like they 'said':

So my response to tcarlton's comment is...
Hmmmm, well if your current tree makes sense to all involved, might be
just as easy to do a name-mapped install at your parent company level.
With OES11, your DSFW domain can span multiple partitions, and this way
all your users, etc would be in your domain.

Need best Architecture design for the following scenario

Hi Experts,
I need best architecture design for the following scenario:
Sender: Mail
Receiver: if sender body contain u201DApproveu201D, then call SOAP adapter, If SOAP adapter execute successfully, then send Mail(SOAP adapter executed successfully) and SMS . So receiver is SOAP, Mail and SMS.
My current approach issue:
Three message mapping:
Mapping1: mail to SOAP
Mapping2: mail to Mail
Mapping3: mail to SMS
In interface determinant>u201DSelect all three operation mappingu201D> u201Cselect order at runtimeu201D.
Issue in current approach: For me first SOAP adapter should complete successfully, after that only my Mail and SMS operation mapping should execute:
But problem is before success of SOAP adapter engine, Mail and SMS mapping completed or integration engine executed.
Note: There is possible to fail the SOAP request in adapter engine.
Kindly help me --> u201CAm I going correct way or want to change the architectureu201D?
Thanks for advance!!
Regards, Kumar

What do you mean by successful execution of soap call? Are you talking about Successful response (happy flow) from the soap call instead of application error ? Then based on the response you want to decide sending mail and sms. How big call is your soap ? If your soap interface is very simple I can give the other possible way.
Sender sends the message, use mapping to read the content and then do soap call in the mapping itself and after seeing the soap response decide about two receivers (mail and SMS). If your soap call is very simple one, you can go for it. Otherwise I would not recommend this. The reason is you loose some visibility regards to monitoring during soap call in the mapping.
Other option is go for CCBPM. Here you receive the message, use send step to soap interface which is sync step. Then after seeing the response create another block with fork steps each for two senders mail and sms. If response bad then dont proceed or execute the next block. Simply use exeception or control step to jump out from the block,

Design for a small but secure installation

Good afternoon, all!
My company is starting a migration from dovecot on Linux using OpenLDAP to Microsoft Exchange using Active Directory. We have fewer than 10 employees, want to self-host and want a secure design that won't break the bank. I originally thought
to have the mailbox server running on one of the two domain controllers and the client access running on a separate server in the DMZ. I've started to re-think this in favor of two independent servers.
Is there a design document out there on options for where to place which server in different scenarios? I see lots of information about large enterprise installations but nothing much for the small but secure installation. Management is set on having
Exchange in-house, so hosted Exchange, no matter how much "more better" that would be, is not an option.
May thanks for looking into this!
Gregg

Hi Gregg,
According to your description, I know that you want to migrate to Exchange server on AD from IMAP server.
If it is the case, I suggest check following articles:
1. CSV files for mailbox migration
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn170437(v=exchg.150).aspx
Please notice "IMAP migration" session.
2. CSV files for IMAP migration batches
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj200730(v=exchg.150).aspx
Please notice "Dovecot" session of "Format for the administrator credentials for different IMAP severs" session.
These links applied to both Exchange Online and Exchange On-Premises.
Exchange Online is held on Cloud by Microsoft. If you want to hold Exchange server by yourself, On-Premises server will be the best choice.
Hope it is helpful
Thanks

Best EQ setting for new Earpods?

What is the best EQ settings for the new Earpods?

I have my EQ set to jazz, and the results are remarkably better than anything previously made by Apple!! I think they've done a great job with these new EarPods. I also find them to be much more comfortable.

What is best iPad case for new iPad?

I have a cover that works the on/off but have tried a cygnet cover that doesn't activate the on/off. I need more protection for travel and wanted a case instead.

A case is a very personal choice, and there are many to choose from.
I have the Executive Leather case from Yoobao. You can get them here:
http://kevikev.com/Yoobao-Executive-Leather-Smart-Cover-Case-for-New-Apple-iPad- 3-YBNEWIPADEX.htm
It's made of leather and comes in 6 colors. The cover works the sleep/wake function, and the case provides substantial protection to all sides of the iPad. The cover portion can also function as a stand. It's also thin, so it does not add any additional bulk to the iPad itself. Highly recommended.

Designing a new small network

Hi,
We are in process of starting our new branch office. This office has one 1841 router, two 3750 switch and 3 Cat500 switch. Could anyone give the best possible way to connect it together . Requirements are Core switch redundancy,VLANs must be enabled,DSL connection to established. Diagram of the network has been attached.
Thanks in advance

One recommendation for connecting your devices would be to "stack" the pair of 3750 and connect one uplink from each Cat500 to each 3750. The pair of uplinks from each Cat500 to the 3750 stack would be configured as a Etherchannel. If you plan on having multiple VLANs extended to the CAT500s, then the Etherchannel would be also configured as a trunk.
You didn't note the particular model of Cat500 or 3750. Hopefully you'll be able to run the Cat500 uplinks at gig speed. Copper if distance permits, otherwise fiber.
If you will have multiple VLANs within the 3750 stack, enable routing. (If you only have one internal subnet, you could do all your routing on the 1841, but would still be good to enable routing on the 3750 stack, better positions you for routing between LAN VLANs.)
Between the 3750 stack and the 1841, again you should run a link from each of the 1841's Ethernet ports to each member of your dual 3750 stack. You can Etherchannel between some 2800/3800 Ethernet ports and 3750s, don't know whether this could be done with your 1841. If it could, beside making an Etherchannel between the 1841 and 3750 stack, you could also trunk all VLANs to the 1841 (I assume it supports trunks). The 3750 would be the default gateway for your VLANs with a default route to the 1841.
If it's not possible to Etherchannel between the 3750 stack and the 1841, you'll need to route across both links. If the number of subnets is small, you might just use static routes, or perhaps RIP.

Best application design for LOV's with historical values

Hi,
I'm trying to find a way to solve a standard LOV problem the best way in Apex.
All over my application I am using LOV's which I like to define on a UI defaults level so I can inherit these definitions on all pages I create on these tables.
If I disable entries in these LOV's because for example a product is no longer available the normal Apex behaviour is that you see the code of this LOV entry and not the description, since that one can no longer be found using the LOV query ( if you set the LOV to show extra values ).
I know there is a solution using the item value and include this in the LOV query, so you query all LOV entries which are enabled and also the one with the ID of the page item; but if you need the item value you have to reference to the page item which is not a generic name but something like :P22_LOV_ID. So the lov definition should then be on a page level and is no longer possible on a UI defaults level. This costs me lots of time and maintenance if I want to change a LOV definition and also when creating a new page.
Anybody knows of a nice generic solution to solve this (standard) problem ?
Regards
Bas
B.t.w. I disable LOV enties by setting a field called VALID to false so I know this value is no longer valid, so the entry is still in the LOV table but no longer valid.

Bas,
You might consider using a dynamic LOV, as follows:
SELECT NAME d,
ID r
FROM TABLE(CAST(emp_utils.Return_Emp_Names_LOV(:APP_SHOW_ALL) AS lov_table_type))
ORDER BY 1
The function emp_utils.Return_Emp_Names_LOV returns either all employees (:APP_SHOW_ALL=1) or just the active employees (:APP_SHOW_ALL=0). If a new record is being added, then APP_SHOW_ALL is set to 1. For existing records, APP_SHOW_ALL is set to 0.
The PLSQL types are:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE "TABLE_ID_OBJ" AS OBJECT
table_id NUMBER(9) NULL
and
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE "TABLE_ID_TBL"
AS TABLE OF table_id_obj;
The Function is:
FUNCTION Return_Emp_Names_LOV(p_all IN PLS_INTEGER := 1)
RETURN lov_table_type IS
vt_data lov_table_type := lov_table_type();
BEGIN
CASE
WHEN p_all = 1 THEN
SELECT lov_obj(k.employee, k.empk_mkc_emp_id) BULK COLLECT
INTO vt_data
FROM employees k;
WHEN p_all = 0 THEN
SELECT lov_obj(k.employee, k.empk_mkc_emp_id) BULK COLLECT
INTO vt_data
FROM employees k
WHERE k.empk_emp_status =! 'Terminated';
END CASE;
RETURN(vt_data);
END Return_Emp_Names_LOV;
Cheers,
Jaime

What is the best wireless printer for new iMac w/Lion?

I just bought an iMac (Lion) and now, I need to buy a new printer since my old one is not wireless capable (HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-One). My old G4 is still up and running (using it only for Adobe CS2 until can afford that upgrade) and the printer works fine. However, the iMac will not be in the same place as the G4, so I need a wireless printer.
I would also like the new printer to play nice with a PC laptop (husband's for work) as well as be able to eventually print from an iTouch and iPad.
I may be asking a lot, I know.
I would buy AirPort if I knew it worked with my current printer, which would be great... but from what I've been able to research, that isn't possible with this model. I will eventually end up buying AirPort at some point in the future, but right now a printer is my focus and I would prefer not to buy both right now.
So my question is...what printer would be best for both a Mac and PC without having to buy AirPort also?
Thanks in advance!

Whatever you do - do not by the HP8500. I am about to take a baseball bat to mine and bett the living daylights out of it. I used to have a 6500, reasonably god but slow and woudl not scan when linked to the mac...so I 'upgraded'.
Initially it worked well, quality is good and did everything well ....it still will not scan with the mac but will with every other lap top/PC in my house..but hat did not bother me too much. It is fast and quality is good...UNTIL
- It drinks ink faster than than you can imagine
- you cannot buy non hp replacement cartridges easily and not from Staples of PC World etc
- It sense that ink is running down so keeps sending annoying messages
- if you use a non std cartridge it registers it as empty and send more annoying messages
- the cartridges cost about £50 to replace al four - you can buy a new kodak all in one printer for £55
- it will print perfectly well with non HP or HP remanu cartridges, but still sends the dumb messages
- when using HP catridges it keeps telling you to replace them even though they are not empty and theres plenety of ink (marketing scam)
- This morning, the printer decided that the new (non HP magenta cartridge) that put in yesterday and was quite happy with ...is now empty...it refuse to print even black until i replace that cartridge.
I have no problem buying HP catridges if the price is fine - but the combination of a software blip plus high prices make me seethe. I will destroy this piece of junk and buy myself a Kodak or Brother - but never ever again an HP product - having spent over £3000 on PC/Laptops and printers from these bozos over the last two years they can count me out from next years forecasts

Best project storage for new pros?

I have a new MacBook pro with retina display on its way (2 more weeks!), and was wondering what people would say for the best setup for fcpx. It's the 2.6ghz and I upgraded it to 16gigs of ram out of fear and the hard drive is a ssid at 562 gigs (or close to it).
I'm concerned about filling up the drive fast so I'm thinking I'll:
1): either go back to using a scratch disk via USB 3 or FireWire 800.
2): rrun current project on the machine and archive all the associated folders for the project to my drobo when I'm done with the project.
Thanks for any advice,

The equipment you require depends on the type of editing you need to do.
If you are making family and holiday type films or otherwise comparatively simple ones with no more than 2 or 3 tracks of video, an hour or so of footage and no urgent deadlines, you will probably find that the computer on its own will cope quite well.
So the best advice is to wait and see.
If you find the computer alone does everything you require in your chosen time-frame, that's all you need.
If you stock up on everything you might want and then find you don't need it, you will have wasted a load of cash.
Over the years, on these forums I have seen people advise others to get the top of the range MacPros, max them out and buy every other conceivable performance accessory when all the enquirer wanted was something to edit his family videos on.
So find out what you actually need by using the basic equipment for a bit.

Best (affordable) Router for new Mac G5

What would be the best Router for my new Mac G5?
I currently have a DLINK router, which just won't cooperate so I am running straight out of the cable modem.
DLINK help says they don't support the latest OS version, so I decided to try another router so I can make use of my laptop (wireless) and Mac (not wireless) again.
Any thoughts? Plug and Play would be nice.

Hi Ryan, welcome to Discussions, all routers follow an industry standard and should would with your Imac. I would look on D-link's website for a firmware update (caution USA and Canada for sure have different firmware and loading wrong firmware could kill your router and it is not covered by warrentee) Make sure you have all the latest updates for Imac, there was one not to long ago that did infact make Imac "play nicer" with competitive routers. I know my D-link DI-624 didn't always "play nice" with my Imac but seems to be working wonderfully lately (knock on wood) Give that a try and if that doesn't work then Netgear and Linksys make good products too. Good luck, Bob :~))
I currently have a DLINK router, which just won't cooperate
also what exactly is or isn't happening, do you have encryption or MAC filtering or anything configuired?

Whats the best web designer for mac?

My site, jayapps.co.uk, is built on iWeb. But whats the best designer to use? (Mustn't be flash)

I concur, this is what most professionals use. Dreamweaver is a horrible tool for this purpose, but it's favored because of it being packaged with other Adobe tools and there being a certain level of integration between them.
If you are on a Mac and not already tithing to Adobe, you might like Freeway Pro, or even something basic like Nvu might satisfy your needs.
Unfortunately, I've never really found what I would personally consider a reasonable platform for web-design: a powerful editor with integrated JavaScript debugger and real-time preview that can read actual HTML, CSS, and JavaScript as the native format; one that handles refactoring and changing the filesystem layout properly, integrates image editing, etc.

Best set up for new imac?

In brief:
Getting new imac (27", 3.4 i7, 8-16GB ram, 1TB HD). Will be using it mainly to run Logic Studio (loads of plugins) and Final Cut Express. I also have 2 external Hard drives one 500G one 1TB.
The last imac I bought was my first and just went ahead and threw everything at it not really knowing where things should go. This time I want to set things up correctly.
Basically, with what I've got, what is the best way to set things up. I.e where do I put logic files, samples, BFD2, Amplitube etc. Where do I put videos for use in FCE. Storing projects and backups for use with Time Machine.
Also noticed the new imac will only have 1 firewire port. I will need to plug in the Hard drives (daisy chained), camera and RME Fireface 800. Was thinking of getting a Thunderbolt Hard drive but they are expensive and hard to find.
Would really appreciate any help before I get the new machine and start messing things up again.
Thanks.

Keep it simple . . . . project files (tiny) stored in default position on iMac and media files etc. on one or both of your external HDs.
You should have no problem daisy-chaining.
I use a cheap Belkin Firewire Hub (which some folks don't recommend) together with daisy-chaining for my 2 FW HDs, A-D Converter and cameras.

EtherChannel and LAN Design for new buildiing(s)

What is the recommended best practice for EtherChannel size for a 3750G-12S stack? Will I benefit from stacking these with the StackWise cable on the backplane, or would it be better to run these independently back to the 4006 with individual EtheChannels?
The 3750G-12S stack will likely be 1 or 2 devices at distribution layer for upwards of 18 - 20 2960G-48 access layer switches and approximately 20 1242LAP AP's in addition to max capacity of end users attached to the switches.
I am considering implementing a 4 gig EtherChannel between the 3750's to the 4006 for this load. My limit is the number of available ports on the 4006 and obviously the max load of links on the EtherChannel.

Unsure there's a single "best practice" for stacking or not. Some advantages/disadvantages to both. Part of the decision might rest on whether the 3750s will be L2 or L3.
Stackwise could be a performance bottleneck if you believe there would be much traffic between switch ports, but if most will transit your 4006, your links to it would be the bottleneck.
What you might consider, a single 3750G-12S (four?) that can handle 2 links from each access switch, that are Etherchanneled and not connected to the same 3750 stack member. This with the 4 gig Etherchannel to the 4006, which again should be spread across stack members.

Best MIDI Interface for New Mac Pro's...

Hello Logic Pro Forum Members,
Are there any MIDI Interfaces available that work well with the new Intel Mac Pro Towers? Want to make sure everything works well. Going from an older OS9 setup with an Opcode Studio 5 [is awesome] to a modern G5 with OS-X 10.4x and Intel chips. Need something that's going to work reliably with Logic Audio Pro and the Mac Pro. Have a large hardware based MIDI studio and need at least an 8x8. Would be nice if the interface allows daisy chaining two or more units for extra ports. Anyone know if something good's available? Thank you all! Donnie Dixon.

Hi Donnie
Welcome to the forum. I to came from an Opcode background too and all my family still calls me Donnie
I'll go ahead and recommend the motu midi express to cover your 8x8 needs, it is actually 8x9 and it also allows daisy chaining, and it is intel compatible. Check it out here
