Bridge Upgrade with Spare Hardware - DRS Restore Question

Dear All,
I am planning an upgrade to UCS from 7.1.3 running on MCS 7835-H2 hardware.
I have managed to find a spare MCS 7845-H2 and I wanted to know whether:
1. Is it possible to do a DRS restore from 7835 to 7845? A quick look at the spec sheet suggests Dual Core, 146GB disks and 4GB RAM are the main differences between the two chassis.
2. Can the restore process accommodate a change of IP address? It would be an advantage to use a different IP address on the spare bridge hardware in order to access the SFTP server.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
Regards
James.

Hi James,
Just thought I would add one note to the great tips from my friends
Aaron & Aman (+5 each!)
If moving to 9.x from 7.1.3 on VM Check the migration available
as part of the Drive to 9 "Jump" upgrade from 7.1.3/7.1.5 to 9.1.2
This is a new simplified upgrade process that is detailed by Amit here.

And more specifically in the attachment below from Vijay.
Cheers!

UCCE 7.5 to 8.5 Common Ground upgrade with uncommon hardware.

All,
So, I have a client that is running UCCE 7.5, and they are looking to do an in place upgrade to 8.5. Most of their hardware is pretty standard, except for the PGs. There is a mix of virtual and physical servers, with drive configurations that are nowhere near a standard. The physical servers have drive configurations that are 40 gig for the OS drive, and 97 gig for the application drive. The virtual servers are a 20 gig OS drive, 50 gig application drive,
Looking through the 8.5 BOM, the requirements seem to be either 4x72 or 4x146 for the drives. I'm sure that some voodoo can be used to bring the VMs into compliance, but what about the physical servers? Is there any issue running 8.5 with these drive configurations?
The client getting ready to go to 9.1 fairly quickly after the 8.5 upgrade, and is planning a tech refresh for that project, hence the desire to use the in place hardware until the new environment is up and going.

Ok, so 8.5 won't care about your drive configuration, but TAC might. However, since you already have 7.5 running like that I can't imagine you having any additional problems. Caveat emptor, the customer is not running a standard install and make sure they understand this and it's documented.

My iPad was disconnected during upgrade. I've tried restoring and resetting. I just did an iPad erase in "find my iphone" and it still shows the itunes logo and the fire-wire cable on the screen with an arrow. It's currently plugged into my computer.

Hi bahaluly,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you are not able to update the iPhone. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

Can you still boot to the Recovery partition using Command and R whilst booting? Or did you wipe the Recovery partition as well?
If your Recovery partition is still intact, you can simply boot to it and reinstall the OS via the Internet. If you wiped the Recovery partition, you can hold down Command, option and R keys whilst booting and boot into true Internet Recovery mode. You'll be able to reformat the hard drive, erasing all partitions (format it as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)" with a dingle GUID partition) and then reinstall the OS that shipped with your machine.
Note that you should use a physical Ethernet connection when restoring over the Internet - it's three times slower if you use wifi.
Try your Recovery partition first and if that doesn't work, use Internet Recovery.

Backup/restore questions LMS 4.2

Hello,
I have several questions regarding data migration from LMS 3.2.1 to LMS 4.2.We will perform backup and restore procedure on new LMS4.2 server machine .
1. I am wondering what will happen with admin password aftrer restore, and all the other passwords in LMS. What will be effective? What will happen with database passwords?
2. Other thing is : LMS 3.2.1 is installed on D:\ProgramFiles\CSCOpx and the new LMS 4.2.1 is installed in D:\CSCOpx
Will there be problems during restore, because the paths on old and new LMS server are not the same?
3. When to perform the licensing? Should I apply license before restore? I think I would have to apply it before beacause customer has 300 devices and eval license iz for 100 only.
4. Does PI_CM license - Compliance Management License comes with the product? How do we get this license? I am aware that this CAAM is new feature in 4.2 version so I am not sure does the customer have rights on it. They have bought upgrade from 3.2 to 4.1 and they have valid support contract so we will go to 4.2 version.
Thanks!
Marija

Following are the answers :
1. LMS's user info and passwords are stored in cwpass file under NMSROOT\lib\classpath\com\cisco\nm\cmf\servlet, which is also
backed up with DB backup. Hence restore would bring all previous user names and passwords.
2. Ciscoworks has a mechanism which doesn't bothers the install directory. It sets environment variable as NMSROOT which is replaced by
the install directory and hence there should not be any issue. Please note that Inter-OS resotre are not supported.
3. You can apply the license anytime, but it is good to install it before backup restore, else the excess of devices, more than 100
will go to unmanaged state and will have to be brought back to managed state once lic is applied.
4. CAAM lic has to be purchased separately. You can contact lic. team or your accounts team for this.Till that time you can use it with its 60 days eval lic.
-Thanks

Time Machine Problem with Apple Programs after Restore from A&I

Ok here is my situation. I originally did an Archive and Install before Installing Leopard. I was having performance issues with Photobooth and Time Machine. So, I decided to back everything up and do an Full Restore from Time Machine. I resotred from the Utility menu within the Leopard boot disc. However, after the restore ALL of my Apple programs were missing from Finder and the Dock. Including mail,itunes,photobooth,keynote etc..All iwork,ilife and everything else that came pre bundled. Now, I did an install of Leopard after the Restore (upgrade) and I got the basic apps back. My question now is where my other apps are hiding?? Are they somewhere within the previous system folder from the original Archive and Install?? (I havent been able to check because i'm now at work when the possibility dawned on me)
Does anyone know where these programs would be and how I can restore them?
Also, my prebundled software (Final Cut Express HD) that came pre bundled with My imac G5 originally is asking for a product serial number before it can launch. However, i never had a serial key for it.
Can someone please help and shed some light on this situation.

Additional Info:
Imac G5
1Gb Ram
Original Install was Archive and Install
Did Full Backup With Time Machine
Restore Under Utility in Leopard Boot Disc
All Apple programs were missing
Did an Upgrade>Install of Leopard after Restore and got back the basic Apps like mail, Garage Band, iTunes etc... However, all iLife was gone as well as Soundtrack and iwork 08...not to mention my Final Cut Express HD now wants a serial # that I do not have because it was pre installed originally with the iMac G5
Where did these programs go?
How do I get them to restore?
fyi-- My dock where the programs were located (in addition to Applications folder) just had a bunch of ? marks on it where the icons would usually be.
Is it a result of the Archive and Install and the Applications are in the previous system folder?
I cant figure it out because when I search for the programs in FInder all I find is files for the programs and cache files etc... But not the actual Application icon

Dazzle Hollywood DV Bridge compatible with Tiger?

Quick question for Dazzle users ... does the DV Bridge work with Tiger? I'm upgrading to a new iMac and I've read a couple of posts whereby some people have been unsuccessful in using the DV Bridge with Tiger.
If any Dazzle users are currently ABLE to use the DV Bridge with iMovie 5 and/or Tiger, would you please respond to this post.
Thanks for your time.
Take care & happy holidays.
Brent

Adam:
About a year ago, when I was still on OS 10.3.x and QT 6.x, I started having a minor glitch with my Dazzle, in that it refused to recognize any device feeding through the Dazzle unless I also had a digital camcorder hooked up through a FW and turned on.
This still happens intermittently (for no discernible reason), so I've learned to always have the camcorder connected so I can quickly turn it on if need be.

EHP6 upgrade with sum tool

Dear all
we are moving to ECC6 ehp4 to EHP6 we don't have suffcient hardware for shadow system so we go directly it takes lot of time in all phases
we made test system sucessfully npw we need to do samething in PRD server we have db and app in that we are not able keep PRD down for many days
we have 32 gb ram on PRD
can we export database of PRD and import in some other system and make that system as PRD for stanby server for some days we can work on dbci and we can keep app server down once update done with EHP6 then again restore this database to original server
Thus will effect the business
kindly suggest some points so we can go further
Regards

Hi Rajendra
Kindly follow the steps & could you share your OS / DB size details
1. System copy from live Production to test system copy, in test system you are going to start the upgrade.
2. Do the upgrade ECC EHP 4 to 6 in test system, during this process you have to calculate over all timings of upgrade process of SUM and all other issues.
3 After upgraded to ECC6 EHP6 in the test system, do the full function level test with help of ABAPer /Function consultant.
4. Based on the test environment result, you have to perform the same upgrade process in live production system with minimum down time, during this process users must be locked and all other background jobs are suspended.

Upgrading dv7 system hardware

I have an old HP Pavilion dv7-1279WM (Intel) notebook computer that has been very reliable... however, it needs some upgrading to keep up with what I use it for now. I've been reading the dv7 manual and trying to figure out what will work in it, but I have some questions:
RAM - currently only 4 GB, at 800 MHz. I'd like to upgrade to 8 or 16 GB, preferably 1600 MHz or at least 1333 MHz. Can it handle that? Some places say it can only go up to 8 GB, but not sure about the MHz.
Hard drive - currently 500 GB, 5400 rpm, and I'd like to upgrade to 7200 rpm; would there be any problem with that? I've found one that is the right size and thickness...
Processor - the dv7 manual online shows this processor is compatible: Intel Core i7, 2820QM, 2.3 GHz. But is that true for an older dv7 like mine?
And probably an upgrade to Windows 7, too.
Bottom line - am I kidding myself that this old machine can handle that level of upgrading?

Making hardware changes to a laptop is near impossible. Making any changes to a laptop that old, even if possible would not make economic sense.
You could possibly upgrade to Windows 7

IPad Folders VANISH and Apps scattered with every update or restore

With the introduction of folders for iOS there has been an issue since DAY ONE! New devices (upgrades), restoring from backups, and iOS updates ALL screw up your folders. I have spent HOURS sorting though my 400+ apps and putting them into folders (BTW the current iTunes UI does not work well when you have MANY apps...I have a feeling that all tests are done with a handful of apps and does not reflect the average user with hundreds of apps)
With every update or restore, the Folder information is all lost and apps are scattered onto 20+ pages of apps. Some folders remain but all but 2 apps remain in them. Some pages are created with only 2-3 apps on them. No mater what I do, there is no fix. Someone on the Apple Care Senior Tech Support said it happens to her all the time and that it is "expected".
I know this isn't NEW to anybody because the Apple support community is LOADED with similar complaints. I have included links below. It is obvious that it is a BUG with iOS and needs to be addressed please. I was told by the Apple Care support person that the only solution would be to bombard you with the complaint. It seems like support has been bombarded all ready yet there isn't any communication going on between the two units.
Please ADDRESS. I will not install any more updates until the problem is fixed.

Did you put the iPad into Recovery Mode? Follow the steps in this Apple support document:
If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
It could be an internal hardware failure though, as the Apple technician explained. While not common these things do happen. If that's the case you options are to replace the iPad with an identical model using the Out of Warranty replacement process and paying the $299 fee or purchase a new replacement iPad.

Not able to install Logic on mac with OSX. 10.8.2. Error message: Logic Studio.mpkg cannot be opened as the power pc programs are no longer supported. I have logic studio 8 software purchased in 2007 and upgraded with logic studio 9 (purchased in 2009)

After an earlier attempt to move Logic from my other mac (OSX 10.6.8) with the migration assistant to my new mac with OSX 10.8.2. I've re-started the whole start up process by erasing the hard drive from the new machine and build it up from scratch. After a new "out of the box" start, I decided to install LOGIC from my disks : starting with my 2007 package Logic Studio 8 and upgrading with my Logic 9 package from 2009. When trying to start to install 2008 I got the error message : Logic Studio.mpkg cannot be opened as the power pc programs are no longer supported.
What does this mean? HOw do I get this working under 10.8.2 as it works flawlessly under OSX 10.6.8. For sure I didn't buy a new machine to have OSX 10.8.2 but I suspect this is the roadblock to installing my logic package.
Help!

Mark,
Sorry...
I completely lost the thread (I actually got confused between you and another poster on a another forum that was asking the same basic question) and somehow ended up thinking you were trying to install on a PPC Mac
My apologies and please ingnore those parts of my last post relating to the PPC Macs...
You have an Intel Mac and therefore Logic Studio 2 Boxed Upgrade set should install/run on your Mac without issue. As I said earlier.. you do not need to try and install from the original Logic Studio 1 /Logic 8 Boxed set...(It won't work anyhow because you have an Intel Mac and that version had a PPC installer) but just install from the Logic Studio 2 / Logic Pro 9 Upgrade Boxed setof DVDs instead...
Have you tried the "Make Disk Image" solution I gave earlier? That normnally works under such circumstances as what you are describing can happen when your DVD drive cannot read the DVDs correctly... I have had this situation myself where one drive read them okay and another failed to do so for whatever reason. Making and then installing from Disk images of those exact same disks resolved the issue for me...
You can try to reinstall directly from the DVDs of course though under some circumstances it may not allow you to reinstall Logic Pro itself if that part of the original installation attempt was successful... in which case you can also try this... (It's probably the easiest method if Logic 9 was already installed and present in your Apps Folder)
If the Logic Pro App is in your applications folder..
Run Software Updates to update Logic Pro to a version that will run under 10.8.2 (The initially installed version of Logic will not)
Run Logic
Go to the menu bar in Logic and select Logic Pro/Install Additional Content and select all content in there..
This content is basically exactly the same as what is stored on the remaining DVDs of the boxed set so you might not need to use the rest of the DVDs to install from but download it all instead from Apple Servers...
