Correct Methods for International OSD?
Quick background rundown: I maintain the SCCM environment in our corporate office located in the US. The biggest pain in our environment is the differences in OS deployments to our 25-ish international locations. I now have distribution points at the main hubs
with OSD capabilities.
I have 2 .wim images currently - standard image and engineering image with everything fully baked (~7GB and ~9GB respectively). This is to save on imaging time (and also due to software installs during the task sequence has never worked properly for me) so
those are reasons for fully baked.
Our Germany location is now complaining that they have to spend a lot of time to "German-ize" my image after imaging, and will continue their old "OEM Out-of-Box" deployments because of this. Because of this, I've been instructed to re-evaulate
my methods to accommodate our Italian, Brazilian, German, etc etc locations.
My question then is how do you folks with larger companies handle multi-language environments? Do you have separate .wim images for each location or do you load language packs and foreign installs of software as part of task sequences?
Examples of changes needed:
German Windows Language Pack and Keyboard
German Office Language Pack
Standard software (Reader for example) installed as German
Regional settings for Windows (time zone, etc)
For the regional and language settings we use an answer file in the Step "Apply Operating System" in our company:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<unattend xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:unattend">
<settings pass="specialize">
<component name="Microsoft-Windows-International-Core" processorArchitecture="amd64" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" language="neutral" versionScope="nonSxS" xmlns:wcm="http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<InputLocale>de-CH</InputLocale>
<SystemLocale>de-CH</SystemLocale>
<UILanguage>de-CH</UILanguage>
<UILanguageFallback>de-CH</UILanguageFallback>
<UserLocale>de-CH</UserLocale>
</component>
</settings>
</unattend>
Let's say all your Notebooks called *NB5xx" are located in Germany. Than you could add an if Statement to the "Apply Operating System" Step which is querying the Computer Name via WMI.
You could make the same Approach for installing a language pack, you just Need to have a common denominator which you can use for identification.
As you mentioned, you could also build a seperate Reference Image which has the above Settings integrated.

RRSWell, I compared my classpath between my windows batch file and the
makefile (that comes with the samples installation) on Solaris and realized
that I am using different sets of jars.
So, I removed the extra jars from the makefile to narrow down the
problem. If I remove the /opt/SUNWam/lib/servlet.jar from the makefile,
I can reproduce this problem on the Solaris box as well.
When I include this servlet.jar on my windows machine the program works!
Only jars I have in my classpath are amclientsdk.jar and servlet.jar which
I have copied from my installation (/opt/SUNWam/lib) on the Solaris box.
Just the same way, by copying the am_services.jar, saaj-api.jar, and jaxm-api.jar,
from the Solarix box to the windows machine,
I am also able to pull the assertions from the Access Manager.
I installed Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q1 on a Solaris 10 machine.
During the installation, I configured to install the Access Manager
in Sun Application Server.
Why do I need to have different set of jars on the windows machine
for the Access Manager client SDK ?
Could you please point me to a download link where I could download
the correct Windows Access Manager Client SDK for
Sun Java System Access Manager 6.0 (Sun JES 2005Q1)?

"Correct" Method for User Daemons
There are a few daemons that prefer to run under a specific user (for example, PulseAudio or MPD). However, I am having some trouble figuring out the correct way to have these run (using startx after console login to initiate WM's)
So far, I've tried:
Creating normal systemd services with a "User" field. This worked for an emacs daemon I found through Google, but quietly failed when I tried the same with PulseAudio (PulseAudio showed up in pstree normally, but in alsamixer and everywhere else, it was undetected).
Using systemd --user. Ran into similar issues, although at some point I was able to get MPD working with it.
My current method: Launching "pulseaudio --start" automatically on console login (using .bash_profile), and making sure to launch everything else only once on login. The "pulseaudio --start" is quiet enough that I can start it automatically like this, but everything else spits out errors about services already running if I logout/relogin. Just an idea I had: I think getting all of the daemons forked from the user session like systemd --user does might work, but I don't know how to make these daemons not fork the background.
What is the standard or correct way to have user daemons launch? I have read the ArchWiki page for systemd/user, and followed everything as closely as possible, but I could not figure out how to correctly set up things like PulseAudio and MPD as user daemons.Hi,
You can do this with a regexp, using a capturing parenthesis and the exec() method, so;
function fxbsearch(number)
var r = new RegExp("(104B-\\d\\d-\\d\\d\\d)");
var result = r.exec(number);
if (result !== null)
return result[1];
return "";
There are a couple of other problems with your form, you need to use rawValue to refer to the content of a text field (not value), you need to prefix functions in a script object with the script object name, so
BNUMBER.value = fxbsearch.fxbsearch(this.rawValue);
not
BNUMBER.value = fxbsearch(this.rawValue);
And functions don't have a semi-colon after the name. Have you got "Show console on errors and messages" selected in Acorbat under Edit ... Preferences ... JavaScript.
Here is my version of your form, https://workspaces.acrobat.com/?d=h7Xtbbf8lgx*5QOXob4OqQ

Zenphoto setup - what is the correct method for proper permissions?
http://www.zenphoto.org/
Permissions are "drwxr-xr-x 3 root root" for all directories mentioned
apache DocumentRoot is default of "/srv/http"
Zenphoto is extracted under http in a folder named "photos". When I initialize the Zenphoto setup in my web browser, I receive numerous errors that the setup php does not have write permissions within the "photos" directory.
The setup recommends setting 777 to all folders within and including the "photos" directory (zenphoto base).
I really don't want to set 777 permissions... Zenphoto setup doesn't complain if I set permissions to 775. But I am wondering if there would be less issues if I just set the "photos" directory recursively to the owner of "http"
Which would be best/proper?
Thanks!I notice that if I do a repair permissions 2 or 3 times in a row that some of the same permissions are repaired again and again.
I assume you are referring to the log entries which contain "We are using special permissions..."
If so, you can safely ignore those messages. They are purely informational. This is not indicative of a permissions problem.
There is also no need to repair permissions while booted from the system DVD. Running it the way you are is fine, and you should only need to do it when you have a problem with your machine resulting from improperly set permissions. -
Correct method for deleting iTunes library?
I have a new Mac and have successfully transferred my iTunes library from my old Mac to my new Mac.
I have made a copy of the library on a portable hard drive, just in case there is a problem with the library in the future.
How do I now delete the library from the old Mac so that I can save the space on the hard drive?
Vast majority of my library is downloaded CDs (which I want to delete) and there are just a few purchased downloads via iTunes (which ideally I would keep but not essential). I'm presuming the latter can still be accessed via my iTunes log-on, once the library has been cleared.Chris CA wrote:

You did copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder, correct?
I copied everything that was within the Music folder in Finder. The copied folder size was exactly the same as the original folder in Finder so I'm assuming it's copied fine.
How do I now delete the library from the old Mac so that I can save the space on the hard drive?
Delet the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder.
Do you mean delete everything within iTunes?
The folders within iTunes other than "iTunes Music" (by far the largest) are Album Artwork (quite big); Automatically Add to iTunes; iPod Games and a few others. I'm presuming they can all be deleted but will iTunes still be in tact (but empty)? -
I have recently purchase a new PC which has Windows 8.1, and Outlook 2013, connected to an exchange 2010 SP3 RU4 server.
In the People pane, the for External clients, then this box populates correctly, but for internal domain users, it shows "There are no items to show in this view"
On my OLD PC using XP, and Outlook 2010, connected to the SAME account, then people pane shows correctly for all users.
Any help appreciated
regards
ChrisHi Chris,
I have checked in my Windows 8 and Outlook 2013 with Exchange 2010 SP3 RU4 environment. There are three folders listed under My Contact in my People pane:
Contacts: The contacts which we added and saved
manually before.
Lync Contacts: The contacts we added in Lync.
Suggested contacts folder: Automatically
keeps track of everyone you send a message to, but isn’t in your Outlook contacts. Please note that it is different from Auto-Complete List.
Therefore, I suppose that the meaning of “but for internal domain users, it shows ‘There are no items to show in this view’ ” is that there is no contacts in the
Contacts folder. Is it right? If I misunderstand, please point it out. And we need to add and save users manually in this folder.
Thanks,

Proper Method for closing a VI?
Hi there,
I am a very inexperienced labview user, so this question may be a walk in the park for you pros. What is the proper method for closing a VI? I want a particular VI to close upon a certain occurence. When I use a property node to close the front panel, then an invoke node to abort the VI with a static reference. I sometimes get a message dialog in the upper left corner of the screen that says "Resetting VI: [Vi's name].vi" at which point labview freezes, and must be closed externally from the Windows task manager. I know that using the "abort" can leave certain references open, so I close these references upon completion of every cycle... What is the proper method of closing a VI?
Thanks a bunch,
RyanHi Ryan,
The correct method for closing your VI is dependent on how you have chosen to
open it. Like Jhoskins, I think the LabVIEW community will better be able
to assist you if you post what you've already tried.
If you have tried to dynamically load your VI using a Call by Reference Node,
you will need to use an Open VI Reference and a Close Reference. Please
take a look at the Dynamic Load Example from the NI Example Finder. You
can find this by searching for VI Server in the Example Finder.
I have attached a figure that shows this Open, Run, Close paradigm in the
Dynamic Load Example.

How to have specific shipping method for only international customers?
In the old BC we had it set up with individual shipping methods Based on a shipping mentod flat for AU/NZ and another All other countries not AU?NZ.
In tests it worked because of the desination shipping address specified a country. (at least that appeared to be the case )
This seemes to have changed ( when ? ) and now checkout only displays the Australian shipping options to the "other countries customers" who should only see the shipping option of International (all countries not au and NZ).
Yes - There are issues with the dashboard shipping method selector, but we do have the shipping methods configured correctly.
We don't have separate currency prices for other countries or language pages etc, just simply 1 site selling in $AU priced products, but needs to have an international shipping option appear at checkout to those customer countries listing in the international shipping method list, and not see the AU shipping method.
Currently all AU ? NZ customers see correct AU shipping choices at checkout
Other countries customers don't see the international shipping choice at checkout, but do see the AU / NZ shipping displayed
Any one else had this issue? Advise appreciated, not sure how to get this functional for international customers checkout, thanks(not an answer but we need this too. Especially one where we can remove the tax from the overseas orders.).. Just subscribing to this topic

Wrong planned cost calculation while actual is calculating correct for internal activities
Dear all,
I am facing an issue in which when i am doing network costing with work center, activity type, cost center and giving per hour rate in KP26. System is calculating correct actual cost but every time its calculating wrong planned cost. For example: If i have given per hour rate 60 usd when planning for 100 hrs in cj20n its showing 2500 while confirmation is working correct and for 10 hrs its showing actual cost of 600.
I have checked work kp26 also report KBST to make sure about rate. Also i have checked configuration related costing variant planned and actual and its standard PS02 and PS03.
I will really appreciate suggestions or some one face similar issue and got it resoved.
Thanks.Dear All, this issue is resloved. I didnt give quantity in KP26. However i am more curious that most of the time i dont give any quantity in kp26 and always system works fine and calculate correct cost than why this time its calculating wrong planned cost.
Thanks all. -

|Short Text |
| No roll storage space of length 1753104 available for internal storage. |
|What happened? |
| Each transaction requires some main memory space to process |
| application data. If the operating system cannot provide any more |
| space, the transaction is terminated. |
|What can you do? |
| |
| Try to find out (e.g. by targetted data selection) whether the |
| transaction will run with less main memory. |
| |
| If there is a temporary bottleneck, execute the transaction again. |
| - |
| |
| If the error persists, ask your system administrator to check the |
| following profile parameters: |
| |
| o ztta/roll_area (1.000.000 - 15.000.000) |
| Classic roll area per user and internal mode |
| usual amount of roll area per user and internal mode |
| o ztta/roll_extension (10.000.000 - 500.000.000) |
| Amount of memory per user in extended memory (EM) |
| o abap/heap_area_total (100.000.000 - 1.500.000.000) |
| Amount of memory (malloc) for all users of an application |
| server. If several background processes are running on |
| one server, temporary bottlenecks may occur. |
| Of course, the amount of memory (in bytes) must also be |
| available on the machine (main memory or file system swap). |
| Caution: |
| The operating system must be set up so that there is also |
| enough memory for each process. Usually, the maximum address |
| space is too small. |
| Ask your hardware manufacturer or your competence center |
| about this. |
| In this case, consult your hardware vendor |
| abap/heap_area_dia: (10.000.000 - 1.000.000.000) |
| Restriction of memory allocated to the heap with malloc |
| for each dialog process. |
| Parameters for background processes: |
| abap/heap_area_nondia: (10.000.000 - 1.000.000.000) |
| Restriction of memory allocated to the heap with malloc |
| for each background process. |
| Other memory-relevant parameters are: |
| em/initial_size_MB: (35-1200) |
| Extended memory area from which all users of an |
| application server can satisfy their memory requirement. |
| Note which actions and input led to the error. |
| |
| For further help in handling the problem, contact your SAP administrator |
| . |
| |
| You can use the ABAP dump analysis transaction ST22 to view and manage |
| termination messages, in particular for long term reference. |

|Error analysis |
| The internal table "\CLASS=ZCL_IM__GTA_TAX_CODE\METHOD=IF_EX_FI_ITEMS_CH_DATA~C |
| HANGE_ITEMS\DATA=GT_BSIK" could not be enlarged further. |

| this were no longer available in the specified memory area. |
| |
| The amount of memory requested is no longer available. |
|How to correct the error |
| |
| Try to decide by analysis whether this request is |
| reasonable or whether there is a program error. You should pay |
| particular attention to the internal table entries listed below. |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| |
| If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to |
| find an interim solution in an SAP Note. |

What is correct method to deploy cluster aware technology using HA VMs?
Dear all,
I recently had experience creating Hyper-V Server 2012 cluster. This allows for deploying a highly available virtual machine. That's fine. The business machine (virtual machine) becomes highly available. This includes an existing VM enabled to be highly
available or a new VM installed into cluster from scratch.
On the other hand; we have cluster aware applications (SQL Server, SCVMM etc.) which are installed in clustered OS (Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise edition which has failover clustering service) .
Just for clearing concept; what is correct way of deploying a cluster aware technology (SQL Server, SCVMM) in the scenario where the underlying OS; running in VM(s) can be made highly available.
Method 1:
Create simple non clustered VM, install cluster aware application (SQL Server e.g.). Make this VM highly available using Hyper-V cluster. (This seems to be clustering the VM running cluster aware application, not the cluster ware application; which
requires clustering.)
Method 2:
Create HA-enabled VM onto Hyper-V Servers cluster; install cluster aware application within this HA-enabled VM. (This again; the underlying OS/VM is clustered first, the cluster aware application (SQL server or others) how would it leverage
the cluster?)
Please shed light on what is correct method. In both cases it seems the VM running the cluster aware application; is made highly available; meaning leveraging clustering. What about clustering the application
itself? The objective is to be able to not only make the VM highly available; but also deploy clustered SQL Server or other cluster aware technology using such HA VM.

With SQL Server both M1 and M2 are by far the best solutions. See guest VM cluster is non-optimal as SQL Server works better with own clustering features (AlwaysOn, see link below). And HA would make VM re-boot on another physical host so there would be
both downtime and potential data loss. Run SQL Server in a pair of VMs on a different physical hosts, configue AlwaysOn (use failover SMB share as a witness) and you'll be fine. See:

Badi:BADI_SD_SALES(SAP says it is for internal use): But i was implemented
Hi Experts,
Badi:BADI_SD_SALES(SAP says it is for internal use): But i was implemented this badi. It is legal or not.
I was implemented badi: BADI_SD_SALES . But it is for SAP internal use.
For implementing this i was changed the field u2018internalu2019 in Standard table: SXS_ATTR.
I removed the X in that field.
All these things done for Creating Return order with reference to invoice. The client requirement is to was external number range instead of internal number rangees.
For this thing I was implement the method t u2018TRANSACTION_INITu2019. I passed the
Our external number in that vbak-vbeln..
It works correctly in development. I am not yet tested in quality and production.
This way is correct one or not. When I removed the u2018Xu2019(Internal use) in field:
SXS_ATTR. In future it gives any other problems or it is legally correct or not.
Helpful answers definitely rewarded.
Regards
Pratap.MHello Pratap
Labelling this BAdI as "Internal Use only" SAP can do whatever they want with this BAdI - they may even remove it !!!
Thus, your development relies on something very unreliable.
Perhaps SAP releases this BAdI for general use in the future - or not.
Therefore, I would recommend to use the enhancement framework instead if already available in your SAP system.
Final remark: If you set your implementation of this internal BAdI productive and the customer runs into trouble later on when SAP changes or deletes this BAdI with support packages YOU are liable - and not SAP.

Entering Correct info for VPN connection
please suggest the correct configuration for entering information in order for my laptop to connect via VPN to my newly installed Leopard Server software. On my laptop, I have entered the following info on the System Preferences> network tab...
Configuration: Default
Server Address: 76.173.xx.xxx (my public IP address - do I need anything else?)
Account name: XXXXXX (same as the account name in Server)
under Authentication Settings, my password is fine and my shared secret is the same as on the Server.
Am I entering in everything correctly? i am most concerned as to how the server address is supposed to be written. thanks!!Hi
If Appletalk is enabled server side and you simply enter the IP address afp is assumed as the protocol to be used. If you prefer the extra effort involved in typing afp:// followed by the IP address you can use that as well. If you want to use the smb service rather than afp simply type smb://followed by the IP address. The same thing applies to ftp services. The Finder supports reads only for ftp services.
If you are using VPN services you simply type in the private IP (LAN-side) address of the server rather than the public IP (WAN-side) address. Once a VPN connection has been established, the remote client behaves as if it is on the same LAN.
You can make a connection using the Public WAN address if you enable port forwarding to a single LAN IP address for services you are interested in. For example if you wanted to access your server remotely using afp you configure your router to forward requests for port 548 to the internal IP address of your server. You can use this method for as many services you like as well as how many your router supports. Most commercially available routers support 10-20. Depending on the router you may have to configure an appropriate firewall rule as well. When faced with that it makes more sense to use a single VPN connection.
I may be in danger of teaching granny to suck eggs but for what its worth for VPN connections to work successfully the remote client’s private IP address has to be different from the host site. For example if the remote site is on 192.168.1.x/24 as is the server then you won’t establish a connection. As far as the remote site is concerned its already connected to that network, why look elsewhere? 192.168.1.x/24 to 192.168.2.x/24 or 10.10.10.x/24 to 192.168.0.x/24 should result in successful VPN connections.
For a list or IP addresses reserved for private use:

Settlement Rule for Internal Order
Hi All
I have Maintained Settlement rule for Internal order as under
CAT - FXA
Settlement Receiver - Asset
% - 100
Settlement type - Full
Now after settlement of above Order in KO88 . I want again use above internal order. Hence i have trying to put Settlement rule 50% for some anther asset but system gave me following error. Please guide on this issue.
Total = 50.00%, ( Set.Type PER / Version / Actual settlement ), period 010/2011
Message no. KD042
Diagnosis
You have entered distribution rules which settle 50.00% in total. This applies for settlement view ( Set.Type PER / Version / Actual settlement ) in period 010/2011.
When checking the percentage total, the system found one of the following errors:
The total percentage for the distribution rules is more than 100%
The total percentage for the distribution rules is less than 100% and this is a rule for full settlement.
The total percentage for the distribution rules is less than 100% and the 100% check is switched on in the settlement profile.Hi:
Please refer to the contents of OSS Note 45612 - IM: pre-settlement does not work, or KD042... which states
"Symptom
1. If a preliminary settlement rule (for example, to cost center) is entered for individual items of capital investment measures with line item management, this rule is not considered during periodic settlement. There is no settlement to cost centers.
2. If you enter a final settlement rule for individual line items of investment measures with line item management for a partial capitalization (that is, the percentage rate is less than 100%), then you receive the unjustified error message KD042 "Total percent = xx%".
Additional key words
KOB5, CJ70, CJ88, CJ8G, KO88, KO8G, preliminary settlement, partial settlement, partial capitalization
Cause and prerequisites
1. You did not enter the settlement type ACT in the preliminary settlement rule.
You can check this in the Line Item Apportionment transaction by choosing the menu option "Goto" -> "Overview dist. rules" to display the distribution rule groups entered so far.
The system displays rules which have no entry in the "SetTyp" field (settlement type, field name PERBZ).
2. The check of the percentages is incorrect.
Solution
1. Install the following correction. Afterwards reverse the incorrect settlement, re-enter the preliminary settlement rule and settle again.
2. Install the following correction. Afterwards, you can maintain the settlement rule for the partial settlement.
Note: If you want to use a default settlement rule (maintaining the settlement rule from the master data maintenance transaction), then you are required to distribute the line items at 100%. In order to carry out a partial capitalization (settlement of less than 100%), you have to use menu path "Actual postings -> Period-end closing -> Settlement -> Line item "
