Copy/cloning ZFS zones between servers

Hello,
We have two identical servers (two blades actually) and I created a zone with ZFS in one that i'd like to clone/copy to the other server.
Is this possible? if so? is there an easy way? I've searched in google and all I could find was copy/clone in the same server, but no info accross servers.
Thanks!

I think you will be able to use the ZFS replication features to sync your zone directory and data volumes to a remote host.

Copying /Library/Server/Mail between servers?

Howdy All,
I have upgraded a Snow Leopard Server to Mavericks Server including the Mail service. Let's call this MSU. I have a freshly installed and configured Maverics Server with Mail service not running (it was started once). Let's call th is MSN (n for new).
Can I copy the /Library/Server/Mail directory and contents from MSU to MSN (after removing the Mail directory that's there)? I am trying to do this on the command line now "sudo cp -rfp ...".
But the copy is saying that a number of sockets ini ./Mail/Data/spool cannot be copied. I understand what sockets are (I think) and undersand why they can't be copied.
However, my question is will this cause a problem? Will these sockets be automatically regenerated when the Mail service is restarted?
Again I've removed the Mail directory on MSN (really just zipped it and moved it to another location) and the Mail service is off. I am copying over the Mail directory from MSU, which is not currently running (i.e. the machine is booted from MSN not MSU).
The users and groups on both machines are different but the primary ones, the ones I care about going forward, are the same (hopefully).
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Ashley.

Many thanks for your reply UpTimeJeff.

I am using the command line. Both drives are attached to the same machine so I just used "sudo cp -rfp ..."
the mailstore copies easily from 10.6 to 10.9
Ok, thanks for that.
As I mentioned, I upgraded the old Snow Leopard Server, which I thought may have made some changes to the Mail service, so I could just copy the Mail service to the fresh install of Mavericks Server.
Strange thing is my cp seems to have got stuck. No cpu activity for cp process but the shell indicates the command is still running. It's been over 12 hours and we didn't have that much mail.
Cheers,

Copy file between servers, passing on firewall

I'm try copy a file between servers with Windows NT. I mapping the target server to drive X and test copying a file in windows explorer and command window and the files copy is OK. But if I try with a java class don't.
I'm try with FileInputStream (read) and FileOutputStream (write) but don't. I have use the Runtime.exec() for execute a DOS command but don't("cmd.exe /c copy c:\myfile.txt x:\"). this second showme a message "username incorrect or bad password", but the same sentence I run in a command window and the copy is OK!
What can I do?

Hi,
try to use HTTP for the transfer between
the two servers. Normally You can pass the
firewall using HTTP (like browsers do).
Therefor use classes in the java.net packages.

Lucreate "failure" - error copy files from zone root

The files are pure plain text ?Yes, although I have also tried with various other files which were around - MS Word, PDF.
Do all files fail or just specific files...As far as I can see, all files of the right size.
I am aware of one other outstanding Windows specific
bug, 3703236, which leads to file size truncation.
I've only seen this with Binary documents such as
PDF, ZIP, JPEG, and it is typically only seen with
files over 1MB in size, and typically results in
files that are between 100K and 300K remaining.
Are you running this test on with the database
running on Windows ?, is so what is the server
platform ?.Server 2000, and XP Pro.
What is the size of the file(s) you are
uploading, and what size are they after the upload ?Everything from 1k to 1m, going up in powers of 2. The latest test, with 9.2.0.7 and an updated Windows MSDAIPP.DLL files start to fail at 64K. The failed transferred files are usually around 40K, but the size varies.
>
Do you have proxy servers etc configured in your
Internet Explorer ? Can you disable them and try
again...
Yes. No difference.
Can you open a tar with Oracle Support, upload the
document(s) that are failing, and post the tar number
here.
Tar is 5004416.993

Communication between servers on different FIs

Just want to verify communication between UCS servers on same chassis but having active vNICs on different FIs (Diagram attached). I suppose all commuication between server-A & server-B will happen through Layer 2 switch as server-A will generate an ARP request for Server-B, that will be passed over to FI-A and then to L2 switch down to FI-B, where server-B will respond back with it's MAC that will then be passed to Server-A via FI-B to L2 switch to FI-A.I don't expect any traffic between servers A & B be routed via firewall? Is there anything I need to be careful about in this design? Going forward we will have multiple subinterfaces on the firewall for different VLANs and all servers will use Firewall as default gateway.

you may want to look at the throughput of your firewall for server-server traffic in different VLANs. If your L2 switch is 10G but your firewall is only 1G then you could have a potential bottle neck.

How to copy and paste formulas between documents in numbers 3.0?

I am unable to copy and paste formulas between 2 documents in numbers 3.0?

Hi Hans,
I can get a reference error here if the destination table does not have that range available while the source table does.
Are you sure your desination table has exactly the same structure and dimensions as your source table?
If it does, copy/paste via the Formula Editor should work. It works reliably here.
Also the formula in your latest post looks as if it might be corrupted-- lots of extra spaces (it seems). Did your orginal formula have those?
To sort this out, suggest turning off 'Use header names as labels' in Preferences.
If you end up with a formula in a cell as just Text (as Ian describes that's what happens when you copy from Numbers 2) you can convert that text to a formula by double-clicking the cell, clicking just before the text so that the insertion point appears in front of it and typing =. That activates the Formula Editor with the formula in it, which you can accept by clicking the green checkmark or hitting return.

Copy and paste styles between objects and entire slides

Hi,
In Keynote 5 I was able to copy and paste styles between objects and even between entire slides.
cmd+alt+c on one object (like a circle) and all its details like shadows, colors and animations could be transferred to another object.
One could even do it with entire slides and transfer one animation style to all the other slides.
THAT DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE.
Does anybody else miss these features?
Or is it just me?

object animations tools are:
copy animation:   Format > Copy Animation
paste animation   Format > Paste Animation
     there are no keyboard short commands for these.
There are no tools to copy or paste transitions between slides, you could duplicate the slide then add the content.

Oracle 11.2.0.3 upgrade running on Solaris 10 using zfs/zones

Hello,
We currently run solaris 10 using zfs/zones.
We have a global zone and several sparse root zones.
The oracle upgrade (from 10.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.3) prerequiste check is reporting the following warnings:
OS kernel parameter "tcp_smallest_anon_port" plus 3 other warnings for tcp_largest_anon_port and for the udp ports as well
This requires that we use ndd to change the values for these ports in the global zone.
These changes will affect all of the sparse root zones and not just the one we are upgrading Oracle in.
Will this pose any problems or is safe to make these port changes in the global zone.
Thanks
Kevin

How to copy automation curves in between parameters

Is it possible, to copy Specific automation curves between different parameters in Lofic pro X?
I know you can copy and paste automation curves from one track to another, but I can't remember if doing it from one parameter to other is possible.
If I want the exact automation curve that I did for my volume, to be used on the same ( or another ) track, but on a tremolo, How do you do that?
Whenever I try to paste it, it pastes to the same parameter ( Volume Curve to Volume parameter, etc. )
Edit:
I found the answer on another discussion, Use Comand,
Message was edited by: Huanvixo

In project one, open the Automation Event List for the region in question, select all, goto project two, do the same but use paste instead.
Slightly awkward perhaps, but it works. It would have been easier if the automation would just follow the regions when you drag them between projects.
Edit: the Automation Event List is only available as a KC, Ctrl + Cmd + E as default.

Massive copy of BW transformation between different source system

Hi all,
in my BW I have different source systems. I have mapped several objects to one source system.
Now I need to copy all the transformation to other source systems. These source system are different instance of ECCs, there are the same extractor in all the systems.
I can't use the BDLS becouse these move the transformations between the system not copy it.
I try to create a Transport and using the Conversion of Logical System Names but this change only the objects with source sytems dependencies, it don't change the technical name of transformation, and do not create a tranformation to the new system but overwrite the existing one.
Do you know if there are some program or some procedure to copy transformation between sourcesystem in BW?
Thanks in advance
Mario

Hi,
you can do a Retrofit (System copy), Generally, retrofit happens between two different BW systems.
check with your basis team if the retrofit is possible with in the same BW system but for different clients.
Note : System copy will overwrite all the objects.

How do I format a DVD copy for multi-zone or Zone 1?

How do I format a DVD copy for multi-zone or Zone 1?
Final Cut Pro X version 10.1.3
I have to send a DVD copy to a festival. They need it formatted for multi-zone or for Zone 1 (North America). How can I make sure it's formatted like that?

I don't claim direct experience with that, but I *believe* (as in "I could be wrong, but") that if you burn a DVD from inside FCP X, the program will take a clue from the frame rate of your project: a 25fps project will produce a PAL DVD, a 29.97 will do NTSC.

Distributed File System Replication between servers with different performance

If Distributed File System Replication is set between servers with different performance. What will happen with the performance of the fastest server? Will the performance decrease to match the performance of the
slowest server in the chain? I mean, will the source slow down (processor speed) if the recipients can't keep up?

Hi,
If you mix different performance server for DFS replication, most of improvements on the fastest server are disabled for backwards compatibility and the performance decrease to match the performance of the slowest server.
For more detailed information, please refer to the article below:

Moving Zones between Sun and Fujitsu

Hi,
I have two new M4000 running some zones. Is it possible to use my old hardware, which is Fujitsu Siemens PrimePower 650, as a backup.
I want to move the zones with zoneadm detach/attach from M4000 (sun4u) to PP650 (sun4us). With the -u Option, it should be possible to move zones between different architectures (e.g. from sun4u to sun4v).
Does this also work with Fujitsu`s architecture sun4us?
I am using sparse zones, so only /etc and /opt are moved between the systems.
Regards,
Hans-Jürgen

Message between servers

Hi,
I am new to this JMS, after reading online and a sample application I got an idea how to configure JMS with resin and Jboss.
My question now is, how to send and receive messages between servers ? I have created some sample applications and just sent and received messages within the same server.
How can we achieve sending messages across servers ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Elad,
We did XI-XI communictions a bit different, we approached it as a B2B scenario. We defined a Party for the sending XI system and we created an abstract interface with the Idoc messagetype (because you need on both sides the same interface name/namespace and we use naming conventions).
In the receiver agreement of the sending XI system you have to replace the party and service name with the ones you have did setup on the receiving XI.
I hope this helps you in the right directions
Cheers,
Frank
