Correct binding order in a Cluster with logical switches, NIC teams, and vNICs on the host.

I have seen many recommendations to set the network binding order on you Hyper-V hosts to something similar to:
Management NIC
Cluster NICs
iSCSI NICS
However, all of these recommendations are for scenarios where the NICs are all physical NICs in the host.
Using Server 2012 R2, I am building converged networks with logical switches, NIC Teams, and vNICs on the host. So when I go set the network binding order, I now have all these components to deal with as well. For example, on a 4 adapter blade,
I might typically have the following items in the binding order drop-down.
4 - physical NICs (2- teamed for the 1 virtual switch, the other 2 used for iSCSI)
1 - Team interface (Datacenter_Switch)
5 - vNICs (Management, Cluster, LiveMigration, iSCSI-1, iSCSI-2)
So, should you only worry about order of the vNICS (placed at the top) and let the other components just fall to the bottom of the list? This seems to be likely to me, since the binding order applies to service access to the resources, and the other
components are not being directly accessed by network services?
Or, should the order start out with the physical resources needed to access the vNICs, followed by any intermediate resources (switches or team interfaces, then the vNICS themselves, to ensure that the resources are available to the subcompnents accessing
them?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

If by 'network binding order' you mean the order set in the Advanced Settings of the Network Connections of the Control Panel, then the most important one is to make sure the domain network is at the top of the list. Whichever network is at the top
of the list is used first for auth functions. So auth functions perform best when the proper network is placed first in the binding order. After that, I don't know that it makes much difference at all. (If it does, I'm sure my statement will
start a lively discussion. <grin>)

If your info is correct you need to first buy Snow Leopard from the Apple on-line store ($20) install and update to 10.6.8 and then buy Lion from the App Store for $20.

VMM 2012 sp1: unable to create a logical switch on team with different nics (bug?)

Hyper-V Host is HP Proliant G7 with 4 onboard nics and additional (different) 4-port adapter, all 1Gbit. Server 2012 with latest updates.
VMM 2012 is sp1 with latest updates, server 2012 running in a vm.
When I create a logical switch with teamed uplink port profile in VMM, the job builds the team but fails to create the vswitch when ports from both onboard nics and adapter is used.
I am able to create a vswitch manually on the team if I do it directly on the host.
If the team is created on either purely onboard nics or purely adapter nics, the logical switch creation succeeds.
In short terms: I am able to create a vswitch based on a server 2012 team with different nics, but not a logical switch. Why?

I have tried assigning both nics in one step, and one by one. When I create the logical switch team with only one nic it succeeds, but then fails when I add the second (unless it is similar to the first).
Error in VMM is
Error (2912)
An internal error has occurred trying to contact the dkfuzhv01.mia.local server: : .
WinRM: URL: [http://dkfuzhv01.mia.local:5985], Verb: [GET], Resource: [http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wmi/root/scvmm/ErrorInfo?ID=1010]
Unknown error (0x80041001)
Recommended Action
Check that WS-Management service is installed and running on server dkfuzhv01.mia.local. For more information use the command "winrm helpmsg hresult". If dkfuzhv01.mia.local is a host/library/update server or a PXE server role then ensure that
VMM agent is installed and running.
If I add the second non-similar team member from the host itself, I get this error from nic teaming wizard
Validation failed and changes to the system are rolled back
It is not a question of losing connection (been there), management interface is on a different team. And it also fails when second team member is added directly on the host...
So far I will stick to the conclusion that my problem is with logical switch and different nics :)
Oh, by the way nics are HP NC382i (Broadcom) and NC365T (Intel)

Smart folder with logical "or" rather than "and"?

Is it possible to create a smart folder that uses the logical "OR" rather than "AND" to determine the contents? For example, is it possible to create a smart folder that contains all files ending in ".tiff", ".pict", or ".png"?

figured it out. Hold the "option" key while hitting the "+" for a new criteria.

Replace a 2003 (not R2) File Server with a 2012R2 files server and preferably keep the same machine name and IP when finished

I am wanting to replace a 2003 (not R2) File Server with a 2012R2 file server and preferably keep the same machine name and IP when finished. For the moment I just need some "high level" guidance, little details can be worked out once I know
which direction I will go. I was considering that DFS might be a way to help get through the process although when finished the 2012R2 Files server will be by itself with no other file server planned at this time. DFS can stay installed for maybe
future purposes but clearly I wouldn't need the DFS Replication with only one machine.
Here's a few details of the environment....
1. DC's are 2012R2 but it is still 2003 DFL because the old 2003 DCs are still present. But likely they will be gone and the DFL elevated before I start on the File Server project
2. Nearly all machines in the facility have a shortcut on the "All Users" Desktop that points to the existing old File Server. Editing or replacing that shortcut would be a major pain,...hence why I want to keep the same machine name at least,
and maybe the same IP if not too much trouble. This way the existing shortcut would continue to work with the new 2012R2 File Server. The UNC path represented in that shortcut is also configured into one or more of our major business applications,
futher emphasizing the need to keep the UNC path the same throughout the process.
3. The facility runs 24/7/365 but is "light" on weekends. The political environment is such that there is little to no tolerance for any down time at all.
4. Would DFS (based from the 2012R2 machine) be a good tool to get where I need to go?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Hi Sharon,
I've done some more reading and have a few new ideas to run past you....
Yes regular DFS wouldn't help and the Namespace would still be different than how it was with just the old server. However I was thinking DFS Replication could replace the purpose of RoboCopy and it would keep the two locations "in sync" until I was ready
to flip over to the new server. DFS Rep can exist independently of a DFS Namespace, so a Namespace is not even needed. It needs a minimum of 2003R2 for the "later & better" DFS Rep but I believe 2003 can do an "in place" upgrade to 2003R2, so I would upgrade
the old server to 2003R2 first. As long as the DFS Rep on 2012R2 and 2003R2 will properly interact I think that will work.
Thanks for the reg info on the Shares. I'm debating if editing that would reg file would really be much better than manually creating the Shares on the new server while the DFS Replication was doing its job. I'll probably export that Key as a
safety move whether I use it or not.
Once the DFS Rep is fully in sync and the Shares are in place on the new server, I figure I would then:
1. Remove the DFS Replication Object (optionally remove DFS Services completely)
2. Rename the old File Server to something else and set it to DHCP
3. Rename the new File Server to the name I want to use and give it the IP the old server had.
How does that sound?

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

Truly dumb question. How do I get PS to actually complete a command, eg straighten an horizon, and finalise the change. Even doing a "save as" with a new file name and reloading brings the image back, straightened, but with the skewed back ground frame still there. Is there a "apply change" or similiar command that I simply cannot see.

brings the image back, straightened, but with the skewed back ground frame
PSE did what you told it to do. Choose the Straighten and crop edges or fill edges options when you use the straighten tool if you want it to do more than just straighten the contents of the image. Many people prefer the plain straighten because they'd rather crop themselves than let PSE do it.

My wireless mouse for imac keeps loosing connection. Started after I was having truoble with computor not waking up and I put the setting to "never sleep". Any suggestions?

If it's an Apple mouse, make it "Favorite" in Bluetooth preferences.
If it's not, the same thing might help, too, but if the problem continues it could be a driver issue (possible incompatibility with your OS X version).

Compatible problems with Logic 9.1.6 and 96 i/O Digidesign

Hi There,
I am on Mac OSX 10.6.8.
When loading Logic, the 96 i/O displays various signals on the input channels and for some reason, I can not use the dsp card of the interface with Logic on the DAE page and the signal are still continuous with selecting HD in and out in the Core audio page of logic...
Thanx for your help.

By perseverence if not gnius I cracked the solution
Heres what I did

Took about 10 mins (I have about 300GB of samples)
Any ideas WHY this worked

Mavricks issues with Logic 9.1.8 and multiple dislays

I have graphical glitches every time i move my mouse from one monitor to the other. It seems to be an issue with the new way Mavricks works for adding wireless monitors and I can't turn its smart displays option off to rectify and revert to the way things were in previois versions od the O.S
A good example of this would be when i select my mixer on the right monitor then move to the left to adjust an EQ or filter.
Once i have adjusted the EQ/ filter it takes up to 5 seconds to respond graphically and audibly. somtimes it even locks play and pressing space bar has no effect at all. I never had this issue with Mountain lion and my machine is more than cpable of runningthe software as the CPU is not even over 1/5 cpacity. I also have 8GB ram so thats not the issue either.
Can anyone help am i doing somthing extrelemy stupid or just have bad luck? I'm really trying to avoid the "just get Logic X" option as many of my plugins wont work in 64 bit!

What is the best configuration with logic 7.1.1 and osx 10.4.4?

I have a dual 2.3 ghz and 1.5 gig ram, i have powercore element, uad -1, waves , pluggo, all NI. motu 828 mk2 with logic 7.1.1. Right now my buffer size is at 256 .
I am working on a track where cpu is at near 80%, which my dual g4 1ghz handle the same with the same track by the way , i got audio dropped, randomly, i though the buffer size was too low, then i put it at 512, it is 10 x times worst. anyone has an idea??
thankx in advance!!

That's not normally a solution when you're running out of CPU power, but it's certainly worth trying.

Cluster with only 2 NICs, is it possible?

I am trying to setup a non-production 2 node cluster, problem is I only have 2 NIC ports avail since I can't spend any money on it. Is it possible to work around that and get the second node to join the cluster with one public and one private interface? Not having any luck and am curious if anyone has done the same and knows of some sort of hack to get around it? When node 2 first boots and tries to join the cluster, it is unable to communicate over the cluster interconnect. I understand this isn't the desired setup and voids the whole HA scenario, but this is just a proof of concept before moving a new production app over to SC3.2, which will not have this limitation.
Thanks in advance for any input.

A little more research in the interconnect not working I've found two common causes that people have discovered, ipfilter and kernel patch 138888-01. I am not using ipfilter, the service is disabled, and as I understand it, kernel patch 138888-01 and above only cause this issue if connected via a switch. My cluster nodes are connected directly by a crossover cable. Is this still possibly my issue, or should I keep digging? One node is a T2000 with e1000g interfaces, so that also lines up.
Thanks again..

Cluster with one 2 Node RAC and a Single Instance using ASM

Hi there,
i am not sure with one planned installation and want to ask, weather i am on the right track.
Some Facts:
Clusterware 11g
ASM 11g
Database 10gR2
AIX 5.3
3 Machines
2 Storages DS4700
My Plan
On Node 1 and Node 2 we install a RAC Database for an ERP Software
On Node 3 we install a single Instance Database for a Logistic Software
So i will install on all three Nodes Clusterware and an 3 Instances ASM - Cluster
I create 2 Diskgroups, one for the FRA and one for the Data, both on Luns on the DS4700
The RAC-Database and the Logistic-Database are using the same Diskgroups.
Is this the way to go for this circumstances?
The alternative is, as far as i see
Clusterware on an 3 Servers
One 2 Node ASM for the ERP Software
one Single Node ASM for the Logistcs
4 Diskgroups, because of the 2 ASM-Database 2 for the RAC and 2 for the Single Instance.
Please give me some hints, which way i should prefer.
My tendence is going to the first alternative. I like the idea to share the Diskgroups over more than on Database because of easy administration.
The load of the 2 Databases are completly different, the logistc software will nearly do nothing compared to the ERP Software, so this should'nt be a problem.
But maybe i oversee something, so please do not hesitate to tell me, i am completly wrong ;)
Thanks a lot
Jörg

Chris Slattery wrote:
why clusterware on 3rd machine ?
I'd have separate DGs but that's just me.If you wish to install ASM you need OCS installed on the machine, even if it is just one node at all.
It is a kind of a dependency, no OCS, no ASM

Unity cluster with one node using name and the other using iP

Hey Guys,
I have two unity connection boxes setup in a cluster, one is know by name and the other by IP address. I'd like to change so that both are using the IP address. The node in the cluster that is using the node name is the publisher. Can I simply go into the cluster settings and change that to an IP address or will that cause big issues.
Thanks,
BR

Hi Brent,
Is there any specific reason why you would want to do this kind of configuration? (Just Curious to know)
I tried doing the same on my Unity Connection cluster (version 8.5(1) SU2 ) in lab.
After making the change in the cluster settings page for the Pub , I did the following :
1)Switch the Primary Role back and forth between the Pub and the Sub : SUCCESS
2)Checked the service status on the pub and sub using "utils service list" : ALL GOOD
3)Rebooted the Pub followed by the Sub and performed test 1 and 2 again : SUCCESS
4)Checked the output of "show cuc cluster status" on the Pub and Sub again: SUCCESS
However, I could not find any document that says this change is really required under any circumstances.
I hope that helps!!!
