Config and environment setup questions.

This environment is all on a Solaris 9 server. Any input would be greatly
appreciated.
Apache error with WebLogic proxy plug-in, used Red Hat rpm.
[Tue Jul  1 10:31:15 2003] [warn] Loaded DSO modules/mod_wl.so uses plain
Apache 1.3 API, this module might crash under EAPI! (please recompile it
with -DEAPI)
What exactly does this mean? Should I move up to version 2.0 or would I
still have the same problem? Is there no way around compiling Apache again?
Also, Do I need to have WebLogic installed on the Apache proxy server? Could
I just take the mod_wl.so and copy it over onto the proxy server and follow
the regular procedures? If not can this be shared via NFS? How is it usually
done? I also entered replication group names, but cannot get any failover
capabilities. Is there anywhere else where I need to define these groups
other than the console. I'm trying to use the same .war used for the lab
during training.
-Dweblogic.management.discover=true (in startWebLogic.sh under my domain)
is giving me the following results for servers that are supposed to be
running.
UNKNOWN for a managed instance
FAILED_MIGRATABLE for 3 cluster nodes
This process also seems to take a very long time.
Able to start all these instance from the console but not if I let the
discovery process take it's course. The managed instance encounters no
errors. The cluster nodes get the following:

Is there any documentation regarding the use of a CVS repository for

reading the admin might find helpful when planning the development
deployment procedures. Thanks.

Jim,
If you already have a working application and just need to read/write a few tags I would look into DataSockets
http://www.ni.com/white-paper/3224/en/
Take a look at the example "Monitor OPC Items with DataSocket.vi" Under Industry Applications > Process Control.

  • Scratch disk and other setup questions

    Hello, I am a long time Premiere user but have never been involved with the setup. I have decided to start doing personal video editing on my gaming computer and have run into some questions.
    The biggest one I have is with the scratch disk setup. I've read the help doc about 10 times and googled every combination of terms I can think of but am still unsure how I should set these for my setup.
    I have Premiere Pro CS5 installed on my C:, which is a 128 GB SSD
    For storage I have 4 1TB drives in Raid 5, so 2.72 TB total storage.
    How do I want to set up my scratch disks for best possible performance?
    Question 2: This might be related to scratch disk setup, I'm not sure, but something I have always wondered. Which disk should I save my projects to in this configuration? Does it matter? Then, do I want to render my final video to that same folder or to another disk?
    Question 3: I currently have a GTX 460 graphics card and am enjoying the benefits of CUDA acceleration. I have been looking at adding a second in SLI for gaming purposes, but have read that the Mercury Playback Engine is not compatible with SLI. Does this mean that it will still just work with one card and I will see no benefit in premiere, or that all CUDA acceration will cease?
    Thanks guys, I really appreciate the help.

    Alright, so I have the hdd's in the case and am setting up where to place everything, but each of my drives is different, so I am hoping someone can suggest best practice on which drives should hold what. I can rearrange any drive to suit any purpose you guys would suggest, but here is what I currently have set up:
    C: - 128 GB SATA III SSD
    D: - 150 GB 10k VelociRaptor
    E: - 250 GB Caviar Black
    F: - 4x 1 TB Spinpoint F4 7200 RPM in RAID 5
    Here is how I am currently planning on using these drives:
    C: - OS, Programs
    D: - Media, Projects
    E: - Previews, Exports
    F: - Pagefile, Media Cache
    When I am finished with a project I move the exported file onto my media server, so that is why I set the export onto the smaller drive and media cache onto the RAID.
    Does this look good or would you guys suggest a different orientation for better performance?
    And one other question, this time regarding RAM. I currently have 6 GB of DDR3, 3 x 2 GB. I have been reading all about how moving up to 24 GB would be very beneficial, and since it really isn't all that expensive, I am planning on doing so. My question is that, I have watched the task manager while rendering and exporting my videos and I've only ever seen RAM usage hit 1.8 GB. I wondered why it didn't get close to using all 6, but didn't worry about it too much. But now that I am hearing 24 would be helpful, I am wondering if I have something set up wrong that is stopping Premiere from using all my RAM?
    Thank you guys so much for the help.

    We are currently in the process of migrating out vmware infrastructure from HP to UCS.  We are utilizing the Virtual Connect Adapters for the project.  With the migration we also plan on implementing the cisco nexus v1000 in our environment.  I have demo equipment setup and have had a chance to install a test environment, but still have a few design questions.
    When implementing the new setup, what is a good base setup for the virtual connect adapters with the v1000?  How many Nics should I dedicate?  Right now I run 6 nics per server (2 console, 2 Virtual Machines, and 2 Vmotion).  Is this a setup I should continue with going forward?  The only other thing I am looking to implement is another set of nics for nfs access.  In a previous setup at a different job, we had 10 nics per server (2 console, 4 virtual machines, 2 vmotion and 2 iSCSI).  Is there any kind of standard for this setup?
    The reason I am asking is I want to get the most out of my vmware environment as we will be looking to migrate Tier 1 app servers once we get everything up and running.
    Thanks for the help!

    Tim,
    Migrating from HP Virtual Connect (VC) -> UCS might change your network design slightly, for the better of course .  Not sure if you're using 1G or 10G VC modules but I'll respond as if you've using 10G modules because this is what UCS will provide. VC modules provide a 10G interface that you can logically chop up into a max of 4 host vNIC interfaces totaling 10G. Though it's handy to divide a single 10G interfaces into virtual NICs for Service Console, VMotion, iSCSI etc, this creates the opportunity for wasted bandwidth.  The logical NICs VC creates provides a max limit of bandwidth to the adapter.  For example if create a 2GB interface for your host to use for vMotion, then 2G of your 10G pipe is wastes when there's no vMotions taking place!
    UCS & 1000v offer a different solution in terms of bandwidth utilization by means of QoS.  We feel it's more appropriate to specifiy a "minimum" bandwidth guarantee rather than a hard upper limit - leading to wasted pipe.  Depending on which UCS blade and mezz card option you have, the # of adapters you can present to the Host varies.  B200 blades can support one mezz card (with 2 x 10G interfaces) while the B250 and B440 are full width blades and support 2 Mezz cards.  In terms of Mezz cards now, there's the Intel/Emulex/Qlogic/Broamcom/Cisco VIC options.  In my opinion the M81KR (VIC) is best suited for virtualized environments as you can present up to 56 virtual interfaces to the host, each having various levels of QoS applied.  When you roll the 1000v into the mix you have a lethal combination of adding some of the new QoS features that automatically match traffic types such as Service Console, iSCSI, VMotion etc.  See this thread for a list/explanation of new features coming in the next verison of 1000v due out in a couple weeks https://www.myciscocommunity.com/message/61580#61580
    Before you think about design too much, tell us what blades & adapters you're using and we can offer some suggestions for setting them up in the best configuration for your virtual infrastructure.
    Regards,
    Robert
    BTW - Here's a couple Best Practice Guides with UCS & 1000v that you might find useful.

  • OC4J and Servlet setup QUESTION?????

    Hello,
    I have OC4J up and running and everything looks good. BUT, I would like to config OC4J so that I can run servlets out of my UNIX home dir "/home/pjl39/servlets/classes"
    and not just the default dir "...j2ee/home/default-web-app/WEB-INF/classes"
    I did look at the doc. and the doc. is rather confusing and I do nto see anything that directly relates to running servlet classes out of other dirs.
    Any help what config. XML file to modify and what to plug into it would be MUCH apprciated!!!
    Also, is there any other doc. about OC4J that is laid out better???

    What you need is more information on how an application is deployed - i.e. what the directory structures are and how they relate to say the web.xml and the ejb-jar.xml, as a for instance. A good book that has lots of examples is: Professional Java Server Programming J2EE Edition...one of the authors of which is Karl Avedal, one of the principal developers of Orion which has become OCJ4...

  • Bran New to Mac - Printer and Printer Setup Question

    I am very new to Macs, and I'm getting a Macbook Pro when Leopard comes out.
    Would I need a certain printer for the laptop and a certain connector that I would need to buy seperatly for it?
    -Shaun

    Hi Shaun
    Congratulations on the Macbook Pro!
    Almost every modern printer will work just fine with the laptop. Most commonly, you would get one with a USB connection, which will attach directly to the laptop. Such a printer could also connect to an Airport Extreme/Express, and then you could print wirelessly. Make sure that the printer comes with a USB cable, or buy one - it'll likely have a "square" USB connection for the printer, and a "flat" connection for the Macbook's USB port.
    Some printers also have network connections, so they can attach to a network device (like a router) and the Macbook would be able to discover and print to it, but this is more common with larger printers such as office laserjets.

  • New Mac Pro setup questions..

    Hi,
    Just pulled the trigger on a Mac Pro 3gh, 4gb, ATI 1900. I am going to that from a dual 1.42 quicksilver and had some questions.
    It seems migration assistant may not be the best way to go. Is this true, should I reinstall everything? Is it possible to drag and drop apps to the new machine?
    Is it possible to get mail info from another machine to the new one? I have an iMac at home that I have been using Mail with and would like all the email addresses on the new machine at work. My old setup, I was still using Enterouge (sp) and would like to use Mail like at home.
    I have the stock 250gb drive and I need to figure out different drive scenarios. I recently bought two external 500gb drives before even thinking about a new system. I am a commercial photographer and one drive is a backup that lives offsite from my studio for protection. Should I mirror with an external?
    Thanks for any help!

    This FAQ may be helpful:
    A Basic Guide for Migrating to Intel-Macs
    If you are migrating a PowerPC system (G3, G4, or G5) to an Intel-Mac be careful what you migrate. Keep in mind that some items that may get transferred will not work on Intel machines and may end up causing your computer's operating system to malfunction.
    Rosetta supports "software that runs on the PowerPC G3 or G4 processor that are built for Mac OS X". This excludes the items that are not universal binaries or simply will not work in Rosetta:
    Classic Environment, and subsequently any Mac OS 9 or earlier applications
    Screensavers written for the PowerPC
    System Preference add-ons
    All Unsanity Haxies
    Browser and other plug-ins
    Contextual Menu Items
    Applications which specifically require the PowerPC G5
    Kernel extensions
    Java applications with JNI (PowerPC) libraries
    See also What Can Be Translated by Rosetta.
    In addition to the above you could also have problems with migrated cache files and/or cache files containing code that is incompatible.
    If you migrate a user folder that contains any of these items, you may find that your Intel-Mac is malfunctioning. It would be wise to take care when migrating your systems from a PowerPC platform to an Intel-Mac platform to assure that you do not migrate these incompatible items.
    If you have problems with applications not working, then completely uninstall said application and reinstall it from scratch. Take great care with Java applications and Java-based Peer-to-Peer applications. Many Java apps will not work on Intel-Macs as they are currently compiled. As of this time Limewire, Cabos, and Acquisition are available as universal binaries. Do not install browser plug-ins such as Flash or Shockwave from downloaded installers unless they are universal binaries. The version of OS X installed on your Intel-Mac comes with special compatible versions of Flash and Shockwave plug-ins for use with your browser.
    The same problem will exist for any hardware drivers such as mouse software unless the drivers have been compiled as universal binaries. For third-party mice the current choices are USB Overdrive or SteerMouse. Contact the developer or manufacturer of your third-party mouse software to find out when a universal binary version will be available.
    Also be careful with some backup utilities and third-party disk repair utilities. Disk Warrior (does not work), TechTool Pro (pre-4.5.1 versions do not work), SuperDuper (newest release works), and Drive Genius (untested) may not work properly on Intel-Macs. The same caution may apply to the many "maintenance" utilities that have not yet been converted to universal binaries.
    Before migrating or installing software on your Intel-Mac check MacFixit's Rosetta Compatibility Index.
    Additional links that will be helpful to new Intel-Mac users:
    Intel In Macs
    Apple Guide to Universal Applications
    MacInTouch List of Compatible Universal Binaries

  • Lenovo Yoga 2 13, Kali Linux 1.0.7, Ubuntu 14.04, Windows 8.1 install, config, and wifi fix.

    Lenovo Yoga 2 13, Kali Linux 1.0.7, Ubuntu 14.04, Windows 8.1 install, config, and wifi fix.
    I wanted to share an experience with everyone I hope will help others avoid what I have gone through the past 3 days. I bought a Yoga 11s that I loved but had some issues with the wireless, Lenovo being awesome replaced it with a Yoga 2 13. I love this laptop but ran into some issues with Linux install/wireless, which I wanted to show how to resolve in one place. Hopefully this will help someone else get through this quicker
    I am going to try and write this for someone with little Linux experience, if I miss the mark please let me know and I will clarify the best I can.
    For work I need Windows 8.1 and Kali Linux, while for home I prefer Ubuntu.
    My Yoga 2 13:
    I5 1.6 ghz
    8 GB ram
    256 GB SSD
    ORANGE!
    My requirements: 
    I need Windows
    I need Kali Linux (livecd, even with persistent mode was not an option as it would not save the wireless fix or system updates) – I would also like this on a USB drive and not the internal SSD
    I would like Ubuntu
    Needed to do this:
    1. 2 USB thumb drives (at least 8gb in size each) I used 2 Leef Supra 32GB drives. They are my favorite right now and are only about $27 at amazon.
    2. Phone that can USB Tether or a USB Ethernet card (External USB wireless will show as "Hardware Locked"). Again you can pick one up for sub $10 if you need the USB Ethernet route. I used my Galaxy S5, you will need to download 200-300 mb of items through this so make sure you have the data if you go that route.
    3. You may be able to get a USB wifi card to work if you do the following after boot. This only worked once for me.
                    a.Type ‘sudo rmmod iwlmvm’
    b.Type ‘sudo rmmod iwlwifi’
    4. ISOs of Ubuntu and Kali Linux (I used Ubuntu 14.04 and Kali Linux 1.0.7)
    5. Software to unzip the ISOs. I recommend 7-ZIP and will be referencing this in this guide.
    6. I will include the EFI boot files and the WiFi fix files if I can attach. Otherwise I will provide a link to them.
       Link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/puxnnoft3gn2b6l/WiFiFix.zip
    Recommended (these are just in case you corrupt something making your system not see any OS
    1.  I would call Lenovo beforehand and get a set of recover disks (this will take 2-3 days)
    2. In the meantime a USB Windows 8.1 or 8 ISO (the repair feature may save you)
    *Note: At many points in this guide I detail steps and commands. Please double check that you understand the step before proceeding. There are multiple points where a mistyped command or clicking the wrong option will cause your entire system to fail and you will need to reformat the entire drive and start over. This also will make One Touch recovery not work. Proceed with caution.*
    I did not need to disable ‘secure boot’ to do this, but keep in mind that you may need to.
    Steps:
    First let’s go through the installs, and then we will go through grub config and wireless fix
    1. In Windows scroll to computer and right click, select manage.
    2. Go to “Disk Management”
    3. Select the main HDD (notice Lenovo puts a stupid number of partitions on here)
    a. I deleted the D: drive on here, if you do this make sure to copy the drives over to your main C: drive. You will want to run each of the installers and repair the drivers after.
    4. I used the space from the D: drive and pulled a little more creating a 50 GB partition for Ubuntu and my swap file
    a. You can also add more space by right clicking your C drive and selecting shrink
    b. Do not format the partitioned data as this will make identifying it later much easier.
    5. Open a command line
                    a. Swipe from the right of the screen and select search
                    b. Type ‘cmd’
                    c. right click and select ‘run as admin’
    6. For Ubuntu: Type ‘diskpart’ into the command line
                    a. type ‘list disk’
    i. You should see 2-3 disks depending on if you have one or both usb drives in the laptop at the time. I would suggest only doing 1 at a time so you don’t lose track.
                    b. type ‘select disk $’ (Replace the $ with the number of the drive)
    c. ***** Before proceeding make sure you have the correct drive selected or you can ruin your Windows install and Lenovo one touch recovery will not fix it since we have changed the partitions *****
    d. type ‘clean’
    e. type ‘create partition primary’
    f. type ‘active’
    g. type ‘format  fs=fat32 quick’
    h. type ‘assign’
    i. type ‘exit’
    6. For Kali Linux: Type ‘diskpart’ into the command line
                    a. type ‘list disk’
    i. You should see 2-3 disks depending on if you have one or both usb drives in the laptop at the time. I would suggest only doing 1 at a time so you don’t lose track.
                    b. type ‘select disk $’ (Replace the $ with the number of the drive)
    c. ***** Before proceeding make sure you have the correct drive selected or you can ruin your Windows install and Lenovo one touch recovery will not fix it since we have changed the partitions *****
    d. type ‘clean’
    e. type ‘create partition primary size= 3272
    f. type ‘active’
    g. type ‘format  fs=fat32 quick’
    h. type ‘assign’
    i. type ‘exit’
    j. By doing this we can maintain a portion of this drive as the install CD and still have linux install/ liveCD if we need to run it on another machine.
    7. At this point the drive is ready to have the contents of the ISO copied over.
    8. Right click the ISO and select 7-zip then ‘zip to /’ This should unzip the ISO to the location of the ISO into a folder named exactly the same as the ISO.
    9. Once this is done for Ubuntu ISO it is done
    10. Kali requires a little bit more to be ready
                    a. Kali will need some files added for EFI boot. --$--
                                   i. Thanks to: https://forums.kali.org/showthread.php?271-How-to-EFI-install-Kali-Linux
                                   ii. EFI files are located within the wifi fix folder https://www.dropbox.com/s/puxnnoft3gn2b6l/WiFiFix.zip
    11. Now let’s start with Ubuntu
    Ubuntu install
    1.     Place USB drive into the laptop and press the “Lenovo boot” button next to the power button
    2.     Select ‘Boot Menu’
    3.     Select ‘EFI USB Device (Name of drive)’ Mine stated Leef Supra
    4.     Select ‘install Ubuntu’
    5.     Go through the Ubuntu install until you get to select the install drive
    6.     Once you get to the install portion it will ask you to select from one of 4 options. Select ‘Manually select partition’
    7.     Select the “Free Space” where we opened up some of the drive
    8.     You will need to create 2 partitions, I usually create the swap partition at the end of the drive
    a.     First I create the swap
                                              i.    Set at the end of the drive
                                             ii.    Set size to 1024 mb
                                            iii.    Set type to ‘swap’
    b.     Second create the ext 4 partition
                                              i.    Set to beginning of drive
                                             ii.    Set to remainder of the space
                                            iii.    Set type to ext4
                                            iv.    Set mount point to /
    9.     Finish the install and boot into Ubuntu
    10.   You will notice that your wireless is ‘disabled by hardware’ This is fine for the time being and we will worry about this after the kali install. If we fix it now for some reason after installing kali we get the error again and would just need to fix it again.
    Kali Linux install
    1.     Place USB drive into the laptop and press the “Lenovo boot” button next to the power button
    2.     Select ‘Boot Menu’
    3.     Select ‘EFI USB Device (Name of drive)’ Mine stated Leef Supra
    4.     From the grub menu select ‘install kali linux’ both graphical and text work. I much prefer text install
    5.     You will get a few errors through the install but that is fine
    6.     The first we see is about network hardware and ‘load missing firmware from removable media?’ – Select ‘no’
    7.     Then select no ethernet card
    8.     It will have you name your machine then it will ask you for the root password
    a.     If you want to just use root *not recommended* place the password here
    b.     If you wish to use a non-root account then leave these blank and it will ask you for a name, username, and password of the new machine *Very Recommended* - this will also add this user to the sudoers file
    9.     It will then ask you to ‘partition disks’
    10.   Select manual
    11.   Now here is where it can get a little confusing so read twice click once
    12.   Select the USB drive from this list
    13.   Mine shows up under (sdb) – Leef Supra
    a.     It could be sdc, sdd, sde, etc… depending on how many drives you have plugged in.
    14.   You should see one primary drive that is 3gb or so that is formatted as FAT32. – DO NOT TOUCH THIS PARTITION!
    15.   You should see the remainder of this drive as ‘FREE SPACE’ select that
    16.   Create a partition at the end at size 1024mb and swap
    17.   Then create another one for the remainder of the drive and set it to ext4 with mountpoint of /
    18.   Continue through the install after you should see an error warning you that ‘you may not be able to boot’ that is fine, select continue
    19.   Then select from the menu of all the options ‘continue without bootloader’
    20.   It should finish up then reboot on its own.

    First setup/boot/fix grub
    1.     You should  be able to boot up into GRUB2 menu now.
    2.     You may not see kali linux in this menu (make sure you have your towel and don’t panic!)
    3.     Boot into Ubuntu
    4.     Once you log in you should see that you still cannot use wireless due to being locked by hardware
    5.     This is expected
    6.     Let’s fix grub then we will come back to fixing wireless
    7.     Plug in your device to connect to the internet (USB Tethering or USB Ethernet)
    8.     Once you verify that you now have an internet connection run the following from terminal
    a.     ‘sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer’
    b.     ‘sudo apt-get update’
    c.     ‘sudo apt-get install grub-customizer’
    9.     You can also edit the grub.cfg manually if you know what you are doing… I did not
    10.   Open grub  customizer
    11.   It should auto populate and you should see ‘debian (kali linux)’ somewhere in the list
    12.   It should be mounted to /dev/sdb2 or /dev/sdc2 depending on how many devices you have
    13.   At this point go ahead and save
    14.   Reboot and test that you can get into each OS
    15.   This is where my inexperience got me. I spent 2 of my days so I am including this error: If when you boot into Kali you get an error somewhere that says ‘/bin/sh: can’t access tty: job control turned off’ look above it for an error that looks similar to ‘ALERT! /dev/sdc2 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!!’
    a.     That error is due to the mount point being incorrect in grub, reboot and from within grub highlight the kali boot. Press ‘e’ then towards the bottom you should see ‘root=/dev/sdc2’ change this to ‘root=/dev/sdb2’ again the number doesn’t matter just make sure it stays the same.
    b.     Press F10
    c.     If this boots fine then you will need to go back and fix the grub.cfg or load into Ubuntu and open grub customizer again, it should fix this
    16.   Now you have 3 working OS on the machine with one being on a USB! Congrats!
    17.   You can remove the USB with no worry of screwing up your install, but you will not be able to boot into Kali Linux until you replace it. I would suggest only removing it and replacing it while the machine is powered off, but that’s just me.
    Fix Wireless
    Now is the time to do what probably ¾ of you came here for. FIX THE DANG WIRELESS. This is a huge problem from Lenovo’s side that I hope they realize how important Linux is and will fix. I won’t hold my breath though.
    Log into Ubuntu : This is well documented in the following forum post on page 3 by user Haohe:

    His has you download quite a large file, mine should be much smaller.
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/puxnnoft3gn2b6l/WiFiFix.zip
    1.     Download the attached package with the fix.
    2.     Connect your USB internet device (tether or ethernet)
    3.     Place the packages somewhere easy to access, in this example I will place them under ~/Desktop/WiFiFix
    4.     Type ‘cd ~/Desktop/WiFiFix/’
    5.     Now we need to prep the tools we need.
    6.     Type ‘sudo apt-get update’ – we did this before, but you know, just in case
    7.     Type ‘sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname –r`’   Note around uname-r they are the ` symbol not the ‘ this is located just above the tab on the same key as ~.
    8.     Type ‘make’
    9.     Type ‘sudo cp /lib/modules/3.13.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/ideapad-laptop.ko ~/ideapad-laptop.ko.backup’
    10.   Type ‘sudo cp ~/Desktop/WiFiFix/ideapad-laptop.ko /lib/modules/3.13.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/’
    11.   Type ‘sudo modprobe -r ideapad-laptop’
    12.   Type ‘sudo modprobe ideapad-laptop’
    13.   Type ‘sudo rfkill unblock all’
    14.   Type ‘sudo modprobe -r ideapad-laptop’
    15.   Type ‘sudo mv ~/ideapad-laptop.ko.backup /lib/modules/3.13.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/ideapad-laptop.ko’
    16.   Next we need to blacklist the ideapad module
    17.   Type ‘sudo echo 'blacklist ideapad-laptop' > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf’
    a.     The first time I tried this it wouldn’t work. So I did the following
    b.     ‘sudo touch /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf’
    c.     ‘sudo vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf’
    d.     Enter     blacklist ideapad-laptop
    e.     Exit and save
    18.   Reboot your Yoga 2 13
    19.   Boot into kali and see if you have wireless, if you do then you are done. If not we will need to repeat this process with one small little change.
    Kali Wifi Fix
    1.     Copy the sources.list from the package provided
    2.     Replace /etc/apt/sources.list with the included

  • Need help regarding Apache httpd.conf and PHP setup.

    Hi,
    I am facing problem setting up my PHP and apache setup. I have installed Apache2.2 Root path = C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2
    I have also installed PHP in my C:\PHP drive earlier. I moved this PHP folder to C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Apache2.2 just to keep all things at one place.
    I have copied php5ts.dll at 4 locations - C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2 \bin , %SYSTEMROOT%\System32, %SYSTEMROOT%\system and %SYSTEMROOT%. I have also added these paths in Environment variable 'PATH'.
    In httpd.conf file entries are as follows:
    ServerRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Apache2.2"
    I have added these 3 lines as
    LoadModule php5_module php/php5apache2.dll
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
    AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
    When restarting apache http server I get message as:

  • Adding a RAID card to help speed up export (and other drive question) in Premiere Pro CC

    First of all, I have read Tweakers Page exporting section because that is where my primary concern is. First my questions, then background and my current and proposed configurations:
    Question 1: Will adding a hardware RAID controller, such as an LSI MegaRAID remove enough burden from the CPU managing parity on my software RAID 5 that the CPU will jump for joy and export faster?
    Question 2: If true to above, then compare thoughts on adding more smaller SSDs for either a one volume RAID 0 or smaller two volume RAID 0 to complement existing HDD RAID 5. That is, I'm thinking of buying four Samsung 850 Pro 128 GB SSDs to put in a four disk volume to handle everything (media/projects, media cache, previews, exports), or split it up into two volumes of two disks each and split the duties, or keep the four disk volume idea and put the previews & exports on my HDD RAID 5 array.
    The 850's are rated at SEQ read/write: 550/470 MB/s thus I could get around 2000/1500 MB/s read write in a four disk RAID 0 or 1/2 that if I split into two volumes to minimize volumes from reading/writing at the same time, if that really matters with these SSDs?
    The Tweaker's page made a few comments. One is splitting duties among different disks, rather than a large efficient RAID may actually slow things down. Since the SSDs are much faster than a single HDD, I'm thinking that is no longer accurate, thus I'm leaning toward the Four disk configuration putting OS & Programs on C drive, Media & Projects on D (HDD RAID 5), Pagefile & Media Cache on SSD (2-disk RAID 0) and Previews &Exports on 2nd SSD RAID 0 (or combine the two RAID 0's and their duties).
    Just trying to get a perspective here, since I haven't purchased anything yet. Any experience/stories, I would appreciate.
    My current drive configuration:
    My D drive is software RAID 5 consisting of four 1 TB Western Digital RE4 (RED) 7200 RPM HDDs with a CrystalDiskMark SEQ Read/Write of 339/252 MB/s.
    The C drive is SSD 500 GB (Samsung 840 (not Pro) and does 531/330 MB/s. My OS, Program Files and Page File are on C, and data/media files/project, etc all are on the RAID drive.
    Problem:
    Current setup allows for smooth editing, only the exporting seems slow, often taking between two and two and a half times the video length to export. Thus a 10 minute video takes 20-30 minutes to export. 15 minute video can take 30-40 minutes to export. The first 10% of the two-pass export takes under a minute (seems fast), but it gets slower where the final 10 or 20% can hang for many minutes like my system is running out of steam. So where is the waste?
    I have enabled hardware acceleration (did the GPU hack since my GPU isn't listed) and it may spike at 25% usage a few times and eat up 600 MB of VRAM (I have 2 GB of VRAM), otherwise it is idle the whole export. The CPU may spike at 50% but it doesn't seem overly busy either.
    Our timeline is simple with two video streams and two audio streams (a little music and mostly voice) with simple transitions (jump cuts or cross dissolves). We sometimes fast color correct, so that might use the GPU? Also, since we film in 1080 60P and export 1080 29.97 frames/sec, I think that is scaling and uses the GPU. I know without the GPU, it does take a lot longer. I have ruled out buying a faster GPU since it doesn't appear to be breaking a sweat. I just need to know if my system is bottlenecked at the hard drive level because I'm using software RAID and my disks are slow and will hardware RAID significantly reduce the CPU load so it can export faster.
    Our files are not huge in nature. Most our clips are several MBs each. Total project files are between 5 GBs and 10 GBs for each video with Windows Media File export being 500 MB to 1.2 GB on average. We shoot using Panasonic camcorders so the original files are AVCHD, I believe (.MTS files?).
    Considerations:
    1. I'm thinking of buying (and future proofing) an LSI Logic MegaRAID 9361-8i that is 12Gb/s SAS and SATA (because some current SSDs can exceed the 6Gb/s standard).
    2. I'm not replacing my current RAID 5 HDDs because not in my budget to upgrade to 6 or more large SSDs. These drives are more important to me for temporary storage because I remove the files once backed up. I don't mind a few inexpensive smaller SSDs if they can make a significant difference for editing and exporting.
    I can only guess my HDD RAID is slow but the CPU is burdened with parity. I would imagine running RAID 10 would not help much.
    My setup:
    my setup:
    CPU - i7-3930K CPU @4.5 GHz
    RAM - G.SKILL Ripjaws Z Series 32GB (4 x 8GB) DDR3 2133 @2000
    Motherboard - ASUS P9X79 WS LGA 2011
    GPU - Gigabyte GeForce GTX 660 OC 2GB (performed the compatibility list hack to enable hardware acceleration).
    C drive - 500 GB Samsung 840 SSD (Windows 7 Pro 64 bit and programs).
    D drive - four 1 TB WD RE4 Enterprise HDDs 7200 RPMs in software RAID 5
    Case - Cooler Master HAF X
    CPU Fan - Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO with 120 mm fan
    Power Supply - Corsair Pro Series AX 850 Watt 80 Plus Gold
    Optical Drive - Pioneer BDR - 208DBK
    thanks in advance,

    ........software RAID 5 off the motherboard ??????......NOT a good idea, from what I have read here on this forum from experts like Harm Millard and others. They have mentioned a LARGE overhead on the CPU doing this....causing sub-par performance. RAID 0 off the motherboard will NOT do this, however.....RAID 0 would provide optimum speed, but, with the risk of total data loss if ANY drive fails. You may wish to reconfigure your RAID to be RAID 0...BUT...you would need to DILIGENTLY back up its entire volume onto perhaps a quality 4TB drive very frequently.
         A lot depends on the nature of your current and FUTURE codecs you plan to edit. You may not want to sink a lot of money into an older setup that may have trouble with more demanding future codecs. For now, in the 1080p realm, your rig should be OK....the read/write performance on your CURRENT RAID 5 setup is not great, and a definite drag on the performance. The rest of your components appear to be fine.....the Samsung SSD, though not ideal, is OK.....it's write speed is WAY lower than the Pro model,but, the drive is used mainly for reading operations. Since you have Windows 7 Pro, and NOT Windows 8.......you CAN put the entire windows page file onto the RAID 0 you might create.....this will take that frequent read/write load OFF the SSD. Read the "tweakers Page" to see how to best TUNE your machine. To use your current setup most efficiently, without investing much money, you would :a. create the RAID 0 off the motherboard, ( putting all media and project files on it )  b. install a quality 7200rpm 4TB HDD to serve as a BACKUP of the RAID array. Then, install a Crucial M550 256GB or larger SSD, ( close in performance to Samsung 850 Pro...much cheaper), to put all previews, cache , and media cache files on....AND to use as " global performance cache" for After Effects...if you use that program. Exporting can be done to ANOTHER Crucial M550 for best speed...or, just to the either the FIRST Crucial or, the 4TB drive. Your current GPU will accelerate exports on any video containing scaling and any GPU accelerated effects. Your CPU is STILL important in SERVING the data to and from the GPU AND for decoding and encoding non-GPU handled video....your high CPU clock speed helps performance there ! You may want to check out possibly overclocking your video card, using MSI Afterburner.or, similar free program. Increasing the "memory clock speed" can RAISE performance and cut export times on GPU effects loaded timelines,or, scaling operations. On my laptop, I export 25% faster doing this. With my NEW  i7 4700 HQ laptop, I export in the range of your CURRENT machine....about 2 to 3 times the length of the original video. PROPERLY SET UP...your desktop machine should BLOW THIS AWAY !!
        Visit the PPBM7 website and test your current setup to possibly identify current bottlenecks,or, performance issues. THEN, RE-TEST it again, after making improvements to your machine to see how it does. Be aware that new codecs are coming (H.265 and HEVC,etc.) which may demand more computer horsepower to edit, as they are even MORE compressed and engineered for "streaming" high quality at a lower bandwidth on the internet. The new Haswell E...with its quad-channel memory, 8 core option, large number of PCI gen. 3 lanes, goes farther in being prepared for 4K and more. Testing by Eric Bowen has shown the newer PPro versions provide MUCH better processing of 4K than older versions.

    It's all here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485%28v=office.15%29.aspx
    Putting that many servers together for a 500 seat company is madness. Go for the text book small farm deployment at most, in reality you'd probably be better off just having three servers total (1 WFE, 1 App, 1 SQL).
    I can't remember how much you should reserve for the hypervisor but if you allocate 1GB for that i think you're ok.
    For a three server deployment you'd probably be ok with 32GB, 8GB for the WFE and App server, 7GB for SQL and one for the hypervisor. 64GB would give you a lot more comfort.
    If you want more options like the enhanced workflows and OWA you'd need servers for each of those as  well.
    You can always overprovision CPUs on the hypervisor but more than 12 Cores would be wasted on a 3 server deployment for 500 users.

  • Video Resolution and monitor setup

    OK, I need a little help here because I can not get what I want.  I am running a gaming system with MSI Plat. K9A2, with 8G gskil ram @1066, timings 5-5-5-15, 2.1v, two saphire 4870 1g cards, crossfireX via dual HDMI. CCC 9.7 for 64 bit on 64 bit Vista Prem.  The monitors are ACER H233H with a max resolution of 1920x1080.  I am basically only using widows video config. and CCC. I am set to extend my desk top.  If i try to run 1920x1080 it crops around the image by abour 3/4 of an inch.  The same for both monitors.  I can run both at 1650x1080, full screen without a problem. color is 32bit. 59-60 hz is the refresh rate.  I have tried to force the config. for full screen 1920x1080, but still get the cropping or the 1920x1080 monitor pushes the windows tool bar off the screen along with any icons that are left side of the primary monitor.  All drivers are up to date at this time.  I have tried ccc with full enable gpu scaling, no change.  I have tried the setup with maintaining aspect ratio, scaling image to full (where it is set now) and using centered timings, no change.  I can not change the scaling options slide bar or check the box, the slider is all the way up to over  scan (which may be the problem), but i can not change it. The OSD H-position and V-position for each on monitor control is 83 and 3 respectively.  The screens are set at full, If i set them at aspect I get cropping of about 1 inch on the right and left side of each monitor. DDC is on, and ACM is off.  Under the regular settings for color management I can no change the V.position and H.position, they are set to 0.  Any thoughts?  I am well powered and well cooled, so that is not a problem.  Thanks in advanced.

    Thanks guys. There's no issue with playing the video when launching it direct in Windows Media Player. Its just when launched from the DirectShow API. We've now got a 3rd party looking at that API and have a temporary fix.
    So for future reference there are no specific problems with the rendering, codecs or resolutions, but there may be an issue with applications that launch high res media on to a 2nd monitor with the DirectShow API.
    thanks
