Change only SID

We have a need to change the sid only on images in a VM environment. Sysprep seems to force more than just a sid change. Is there a way to build a xml file that will ONLY change the SID and not reset anything else?

Hi,
Yes, regarding SIDs, Microsoft does not support images that are prepared using NewSID, we only support images that are prepared using Sysprep. Sysprep does a lot more than just change the SID. Microsoft has not tested NewSID for all deployment cloning options.

  • How can i change only one

    hello,
    i need a technique that changes only one side of box. For example a box should only growth in height (not in depth). The thing i'm trying to realize is an animated bar chart via java3d. In this bar chart boxes should represent the bars. With scaling i always manipulate two sides (e.g. positive y AND negative y).
    Your help is greatly appreciated.
    TNX in advance
    JIVI

    you could always just do the two-sided scale and then translate it to the correct position.
    e.g. If height is 512 pix and you scale by 0.5, then it would shrink by 256 pix, or 128 on either side. Simply move it down 128 pix after scaling.

  • Why can't Apple make 'publish changes only' for non .mac users?

    The recent iWeb update to 1.1 and the now increasingly obvious differential between .mac and non .mac features has prompted me to post here today.
    I can understand comments, passwords and search facilities being a .mac only experience because it requires server side technology. I can also understand that .mac users get enhanced features like slideshows as well.
    But why is the fundamentally *basic* option to 'publish the changes only' not available to non .mac users?
    I know uploading to .mac uses a different protocol to uploading via FTP, but I don't think it is about that. Obviously the software engine in iWeb 1.1 can now track the pages that have changed, and flag those for uploading. So if the facility to do this is not available with non .mac uploading, is this some form of crippleware? Can any software engineers comment on this or am I talking off the top of my head? [And please mods, don't delete this post - I use the word 'crippleware' in its harshest form, clearly I can still use iWeb to make fantastic websites - I am asking a technical question here.]

    OK, from reading this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=486335&tstart=0
    There is a pattern: An error occurred while publishing file “/blah/blah", while file "/blah/blah" seems to be random from one person to the next, but they all share one thing and that is communication protocol.
    For iWeb to be able to publish changes to .Mac, it has to:
    1. identify if the file exists
    2. do the following:
    2a. if not exists, copy it to .Mac
    2b. if exist, do some sort comparison - CRC checksum -
    2b1. if checksums match, don't copy
    2b2. if checksums don't match copy it to .Mac
    At least I think that's what going on, I don't have .Mac so that is best I can think of. Perhaps, some Apple SW engineers can jump in here.
    Now, the bad part is iWeb has to (and I'm assuming iWeb uses WebDAV):
    1. go thru each file locally
    2. crawl its way into .Mac (WebDAV is a slow protocol) to find the the counter part.
    3. when it finds a file that matches a client side file, it has to (some how) do checksum on-the-fly across the net work (which is slow and congested)
    #3 is I think where it failed, there are many factors here: 1) networks congestion 2) latency 3) protocol overhead 4) checksum calculation time etc...
    iWeb eventually times out because any/all of the above.
    It's nice that WebDAV can author to the host yada, yada, but it's so SLOOOOOW.
    What I would do is for every publishing, I would build a files and their checksums keep it on the host (or local, must be hidden).
    For subsequence publishing, I would (use a fast protocol like FTP) download this pre-built files/checksums list. Locally, do a full publishing, making checksum comparison, the result is delta changes; upload only those. Build a new files/checksums list upload that too.
    What I mean to say is offload everything that is possible to local machine, bandwidth is PREMIUM!

  • How to change the SID during system copy

    This blog /people/johannes.heinrich/blog/2006/07/07/new-features-in-db2-udb-v9--part-3 (i.e.  the "new feature of V9" in this group) only
    talk about the system copy without changing the SID.
    In reality, we often want to change the SID during the system copy. Can we modify the script mentioned in above blog
    to make SID change possible?
    Thanks!

    Hi Christy,
    if you´re using export/import which is prefered you can change the sid during the parameter setting for export and import. You´ll be asked by the old sid and the new sid. For the tablespace names it is not so important because db2 is using tablespace id not the name for the internal administration.
    Regards

    The ONLY supported way to change the SAP SID is to make a system copy (either homogeneous or heterogeneous), so you will have to follow the guidelines given in the respective installations guide and sapnotes!

  • Password self-service errors -  Password can be changed only once in a day

    Hi experts,
    We've been using password resets without issues for several months. Recently we upgraded from version 5.3 SP12 to SP14.
    I've read the CUP release note that explains that how password resets now validates against the ABAP system parameter for login/password_change_waittime.
    The errors we are experiencing happen even when the users' password is reset for the first time in a day.
    Error message:
    X Unable to reset password in the following system(s): ECDCLNT100. Password can be changed only once in a day
    Please advise if you have experienced this error, if there is a resolution, and/or if there is a way to disable the parameter check.
    FYI - We are only using password resets in our non-production systems and are not concerned with multiple daily password resets.
    Thanks.

  • Table cntrol field to be display/Change only For each record

    Hi all,
    How to set a particular Field in table control either as display only or
    change only for <b>each row</b> based on certain condition.I need to set this property for each record in table control not for the entire coloumn?.I know the procedure for setting up an entire coloumn in table control either as diplay or change only using <b>Loop at screen</b> statement.

  • How to change the SID name in the server

    hi all,
    i installed oracle 10g R1 on windows 2003 server. i gave an sid and created a database. the database is new and there is no data in the db. now i want to change the SID name of the database. pls help me in doing this.
    regards,
    nagarjuna

    Hi,
    Just a notice: SID and DBNAME are two different things. But the usual practice is to have SID = DBNAME, so let me assume you want to change both SID and DBNAME.
    Either you can do it manually by recreating the controlfile as orawiss suggests. You may discover some challenges around the way (for instance, for the command CREATE CONTROLFILE SET "new_dbname" to work, you have do delete or rename the old controlfiles first).
    Or, you can change it easier by using nid utility. The detailed howto and all implications can be found on:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10825/dbnewid.htm
    Basically:
    SQL> create pfile from spfile;
    SQL> shutdown immediate;
    nid TARGET=sys/password@oldname DBNAME=newname
    copy the initoldname.ora to initnewname.ora and edit the DB_NAME parameter to reflect the new name
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL> create spfile from pfile;
    SQL>startup mount;
    SQL> alter database open resetlogs;
    Then don't forget to generate new password file for the new dbname (using orapw) and make changes in tnsnames.ora and listener.ora if needed.
    Just make sure, the database has been properly shut down before changing the db_name either manualy by recreating controlfile or by the newid utility, as the renamed database has to be opened with resetlogs - making any crash recover of improperly shut down database impossible.
    Kind regards,
    Martin

  • How to change only one attribute at the host

    Hi experts,
    we use host configuration with special host types. If we want to change only one attribute of the host with the cli we must change all attributes associates with the host. If we define only one new attribute all other values are set (back) to the default of the host type..
    (in the gui all works fine...)
    Is there a chance to change a only one attribute and keep all other attribute values of the host ?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    No, it is not possible to do that.
    All attributes (passed via -attr) are treated as a single argument to the host modification (similar to a name or description). Essentially, when you provide a -attr argument to hdb.h.mod, the command will reset the existing overridden attributes and consider only the new attributes coming thorugh the -attr arg for overriding.
    You see it working from the UI properly because, the UI requests for overriding all atributes once again, even though you manually changed only one attribute.

  • CLFMAS: Change only 1 caracteristic in a non-local material class

    I try to modify a material's classification with CLFMAS.
    I would like to change only one characteristic. The others ones must keep their old values.
    CLFMAS erases everything, and I just have the new value of the caracteric I would change.
    I use a non-local class.
      Thanks in advance for your help.

    We have the same issue just come up last night.   A test on one class last week yielded the 2 record change history model (old value deleted, new value created).  Applying the same change to a different material class, we get only the single record model - no help or oss notes seem to mention that there are two different change history models in SAP.
    CHECK THIS -- check your single record change log in table CDPOS ... you may have values in both value_old and value_new fields there.  The 2 record model stores value_old on the "deleted" record and value_new field value on the "created" record.
    That still does not answer why there are two models and how one controls which model is implemented for change history on a class/characteristic ... but it sheds just a little more light on it.

    Is there any way to change the side i can drag a window to my second monitor? I am running dual monitors, but i have to drag my window to the right to make it move to the monitor on the left hand side of my iMac. There is no way for me to move the second monitor to the other side of the desk. Is there an option to switch the sides of the dragging?
