Creating a server 2008r2 DC from scratch

Hello,
I am creating a lab environment with server 2008r2, I do a fresh install of OS, install AD domain services, then run dcpromo. All very standard,
However, every time, on reboot the microsoft loading takes a very long time, when done I get a black screen with an active mouse, but nothing else. If I leave it for an hour or two it will reboot occasionally, but always with the same result.
If I boot in safe mode it sticks at PNPCLASS for a long time, then the black screen and mouse again.
I've it 3 times, there must be something I am doing wrong.
Tee machine is a Poweredge server, 64bit, 2gb ram, 1TB hd. I am on a home network/workgroup, not on a domain.
Any suggestions out there?
JJ

What kind of RAID controller are you using? What RAID are you using? I'm curious if it's failing after the ADDS install because maybe you're setting ADDS to install/use a disk other than the system drive.
I'll take a long shot guess here, are you running RAID 1 (Or just independent disks in general), with the OS on a single disk, then when you start to use another physical disk, it starts to fail?
Other than disk issues, are you standing up a new instance? New Domain, new forest, allowing the wizard to setup your DNS for you?

Creating a Java content tree from scratch and then marshal it to XML data

Hi,
After binding a schema using JAXB binding, I wrote a class to create a Java content tree from scratch and then marshal it to create an XML document. To see if the resulting xml document is correct, I opened it in XMLSpy and tried to validate it against the original schema.... I got the following error:
"Unable to locate a reference to a supported schema kind (DTD, DCD, W3C Schema, XML-Data, Biz Talk) within this document instance"
Then I realized that the generated xml document didnot contain the following for the root element:
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" and xsi:schemaLocation="....."
i.e, the XML Schema Instance namespace and the schema location.
How do I get these attributes incorporated into the XML document generated during the marshal process.
Thanks.

How do I get these attributes incorporated into the XML document generated during the marshal process.
Add xmlns:xsi and xsi:schemaLocation attributes to the root element in the schema.
<xsd:attribute name="xmlns:xsi" fixed="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"/>

Unable to do Bare Metal Restore on Windows Server 2008R2 Backup from USB Seagate Backup Plus Harddrive

I have done a windows full server backup on to an external Seagate HDD on a Dell PowerEdge T110 II Server running Windows Server 2008 R2
I want to clone this and do a Bare Metal Restore on an identical server at home which has Windows Server 2008 R2 on it.
I boot from the Windows DVD provided, select repair however windows Server 2008 R2 will not find the image of the Seagate drive. The Seagate drive can be seen on the server otherwise. I guess there are options to load the driver, but I don't see them.
Please help. Kind of stuck here
Thanks

I am using a windows server 2008R2 disk to boot up. Both the servers have windows server 2008R2 on them. I have two licenses for each of the servers. I want to use the server at home as a backup server in case the server in office goes down. I used
windows server backup to backup the server at work to a portable USB hard drive. I bought the hard drive home and want to clone the server at work. I heard bare metal restore is the best way to do this. So I booted the server at home with the windows server
2008 r2 disk that I have and clicked repair. I had attached my seagate portable drive to the usb port so that the server could find the image of the server at work, however the server cant find the hard drive or the server image. Is it a problem with my usb
hard drive? Do I need a specific type of usb hard drive to do server image backups?
If I let my server at home boot regularly and it comes up, it can see the image on the hard drive so I dont know how to do the bare metal restore. I know it can be done becuase my IT guy did it when he set up both the servers. I just want to periodically
clone them so make sure the server at home is updated with the settings of the server at work.
Thanks for any help here

Creating a JSF Web application from scratch.

hi,
i have created a JSF web application, but not from scratch i had to use a jsf example included in the final specification of the JSF download, as a template to create my own application, by deleting and editing the example files with my own.
i tried to do it from scratch including all the settings, parameters and files that should be in place, but i sill get an error when starting the app in tomcat.
Unfortunately i dont have the error listing anymore since i have got around the problem through alternate path. however i do remember that it came with cannot find FacesServlet, or something to do with the FacesServlet.
if anyone could shed some light on this it would be really great because it so frustrating.
many thanks.
dharam

cannot find FacesServlet, or something to do with the FacesServlet.It might appear not because you have a wrong project structure, but because you point to the entry jsp file directly without using the servlet mapping in your URL. Check this first.

How to create a report in EM from scratch level ?

Hi,
Can anybody help me on this ?
The report I want to create in EM is about where the user selects a target from a drop down and it shows the CPU utilization or memory Utilization for that respective target. Is it possible to create such kind of ? If Yes, How to create the report ?
Thanks in advance.

Are you sure you want to create a report for this info?
As CPU and MEM utilization changes every second, what would be the use of a report?
I assume you are aware of the fact that CPU and MEM utilization is included for instance in the Host Homepage and can also be included in Group Pages and Dashboards.

How to create XML document in Java from scratch ?

I've downloaded the package generated for my schema.
Now I'm trying to create a XML Document using the interfaces generated and the
xmlbeans package. In documentation, all samples start with a call to XmlLoader.load(xmlinput).
In my case I've no xmlinput, I've only java parameters and i need to produce an
XML document.
Could you provide a sample code please ?
Thanks in advance.

It looks like you only need to use the xmlText() method from the root of any node
you want to print out to a file. I used a PrintStream() class and then used the
ps.print(vpDetails.xmlText()); to save to a file.
Hope this helps.

Connect to sql server 2008R2 64bit from oracle 10g (10.2.0.4)

Hi
My requirement is to connect SQL server 2008 R2 64bit to oracle 10.2.0.4.0. and get the data from the SQL database. The SQL server database is located in a remote server. Please let me know the most suitable method to connect.
Oracle database is running in Red hat Linux 4 enterprise edition 32bit version.
Regards
Pramuditha

Pramuditha,
I assume that your Oracle database should be the driving site that pushes and pulls the data from/to the SQL Server.
Here Oracle offers 2 different products, a Database Gateway for ODBC and a Database Gateway for MS SQl Server which both give you the opportunity to define a database link to a MS SQL Server and to integrate it into the Oracle database.
More details can be found on the My Oracle Support portal (support.oracle.com), then check out the Gateway Master Note:
Master Note for Oracle Gateway Products (Doc ID 1083703.1)
The note contains links to other content which gives you an overview about the options you have to connect to a foreign database:
Document 233876.1 Options for Connecting to Foreign Data Stores and Non-Oracle Databases - For example - DB2, SQL*Server, Sybase, Informix, Teradata, MySQL
and it also explains the functional and licensing differences of the Database Gateway for ODBC and the other gateways:
Document 252364.1 Functional Differences Between Generic Connectivity and Database Gateways
Document 232482.1 Gateway and Generic Connectivity Licensing Considerations
Once you decided which gateway you want to use you can also find the configuration notes linked to the Gateway Master Note.
- Klaus
Edited by: kgronau on Dec 11, 2012 9:53 AM
Maybe just some words about the versions:
Your Oracle database release 10.2.0.4 is certified with the currently latest Oracle database Gateway release 11.2.0.3 (DG4ODBC and also DG4MSQL). When you decide to use DG4MSQL, then the 11.2.0.3 release is also certified for SQL Server 2008, when you plan to use DG4ODBC you need to find a suitable 3rd party ODBC driver that is certified with MS SQl Server 2008.

Creating an EDL/Project file from scratch

I have a VHS tape from years ago of a short documentary with timecode burn in. I also have the original beta tapes that are the source for this project. What I DO NOT have is an original project file.
How can I go about re-creating an EDL from the VHS tape in order to re-create the project (either in FCP or Avid)? If I can manually enter the beginning and end timecode for each shot into an EDL template, can I import this EDL to create a sequence, and re-digitize? What template should I use to create this EDL? Is there a simpler way?
Audio is not an issue and will be re-created. We just want to get the video project back on-line. Any input would be hugely appreciated.

Doesn't look like you've given us enough to go on here. Do you know the source material well enough to figure out the source reel for every clip that you see on the VHS?
I mean, if you captured the entire VHS program, could you go clip by clip and know the reel name?
Somebody slap me if this is unworkable:
Capture the entire VHS.
Make sub-clips of all the clips represented on that Master Clip. For each, note the correct reel name somehow
Make the sub-clips Independent Clips
Open Log & Capture, and one by one, drag & drop all the subclips into the L&C window, and for each one, change the reel and clip name. Log all of these new clips.
Now Batch Capture with the correct Capture Setting for the Beta masters and add handles to all the clips.
EDIT: Forgot you only wanted an EDL. OK, rather than capturing, edit all of the new clips into a new sequence, then go to File > Export > EDL. Choose CMX3600.
EDIT 2: It probably isn't necessary to make the sub-clips Independent, since your goal is an EDL.

What is the impact of destroying and re-creating from scratch the Open Directory Master?

In order to try and solve some nasty issues hat I have since upgrading to OS X Server 3,0 I am considering completely destroying my OD Master and re-creating the users and groups from scratch. Before doing so (of course I will have multiple backups) I would like to understand:
1.   When re-creating the users and groups is it sufficient to use the same ‘Unix’ groupid and userid numbers or do I also need to use the original GeneratedUIDs (is that even possible)? Are there any other aspects of the users/groups that I need to be sure to preserve?
2.   Will there be any impact to services and their data from doing this? Specifically, I have users with data in Mail, Calendar, Contacts and the WiKi. Will they still be able to access their data after the OD destroy/re-create or is that data somehow tied to more than just the username (e.g. does it use the user/group UUID or indeed any other UUID from OD)?
3.   Will there be any impact to OS X clients bound to the OD? Should I unbind them before destroying and re-bind them afterwards? Will there be any negative impact on the network users who log in via these systems (they all have ‘mobile’ accounts which do *not* sync to the server - all their data is local to the client)?
Thanks in advance for any advice especially from anyone who has gone through this process.
Chris

Hi Rob,
I have solevd my issue and I did not need to destroy / re-create the Open Directory. See my post here https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5785838 for all the gory details. The long and the short of it was that my problems all came from a point in the past when I changed the hostname of my server after I had created the Open Directory master. Seems like that is a very bad idea! Based on what I found it seems liek any small flaw in DNS forward and reverse name resolution can also cause similar issues. I don't knwo if either of thsoe may apply to your situation?
As part of troubleshooting my issue I actually created a 'replica' of my server setup on another machine includingthe OD and associated users and groups. What I found was that many services (certainly mail, calendar and contacts) depend completely on the OD users and groups UUIDS. So if you wish to preserve user's data across an OD destroy and re-create it is vital that you carefully note for each group its Unix GID and its OD UUID and for each user their Unix uid, primary group id and UUID. When you are re-creating your OD master, as you create each group, use Directory editor to change its UUID to the original value. Similarly for Users. If you don't then users will no longer have access to any existign Mail, Contacts or Calendar data afterwards!
HTH,
Chris

How to create a bootable OEL5.8 .iso from scratch?

Are there any instructions available about how to create a bootable .iso file, for installing OEL5.8, from scratch?
We need to build a system which is a customised version of OEL5.8; we want to add some extra RPMs and remove others. We have an older build system which does this based on OEL5.5, but the way it has been built makes this hard to upgrade. We'd like to try starting from OEL5.8 again.
One possibility would be to download the initial OEL5.8 .iso; mount this as a loop-back filesystem; adjust some RPMs and config; then re-create an .iso from this file. However, this doesn't allow us to update the kernel very easily. We'd prefer an approach which starts from a set of RPMs (perhaps including modified kernel RPMs) and builds the .iso from scratch.
Many thanks for any pointers.
Edited by: user11244224 on Mar 5, 2013 7:16 AM

You cannot simply edit an .iso image file because the iso9660 filesystem is read-only. And even if you create your own iso image from scratch, with a bootable code, any package you add will not be part of the initial installation, unless you recreate the appropriate software repository database and anaconda installer. Sounds like overkill to me for what you are describing.
Why would you want to go through the endeavor to adjust the Oracle Linux distribution DVD for the purpose of creating a customized system? Why not using Kickstart instead, or a simply create a post-installation script to modify the installation to your needs?

How to empty XE database and re-create tables/fields from scratch?

Hi,
I've installed XE database to port my VB6/Access application to it, and I know that XE is limited to one single database, so far so good. But I want to erase everything from inside this default database to create my own tables/fields from scratch. How can I do that?
I just want to have one single database file with some tables/fields inside it, and nothing else. The rest will be done through VB straight.
And what is the name of the default XE database file? Where is it stored? If I make a backup of this file, can I restore it after a crash in the future by overwriting the corrupted file? Is that this simple as Access is?
Sorry about those many questions and thanks for reading!
Roger.

If you want to erase everything, one solution is to uninstall Oracle XE and just to reinstall it.
Under Windows to avoid any issue, see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25329_01/doc/install.102/b25143/toc.htm#CIHDDHJD.
If your application is owned by a single Oracle user account, you can also run (where <schema> is the Oracle user account name):
drop user <schema> cascade;To reinstall your application you would need to recreate the user account <schema> with the right privileges (CREATE USER ... and GRANT ...).

Create blu-ray menu for concert from scratch

Hi all,
I downloaded the Premiere Elements 11 trial yesterday and am evaluating it for purchase.
My first project is a blu-ray of a concert. I am on Windows 7 64bit.
Project settings are:
AVCHD 720p square pixel
1280x720
29.97fps
30fps drop-frame timecode
I want to create a simple menu for blu-ray (ie an HD menu) that has a still background and simple text buttons. The top menu would just have "play concert" and "track selection" text only buttons. The "track selection" button would lead to a page with all the track names as buttons that link to the scene markers for each track. That's it.
I only see pre-installed templates and none of them have the "HD" designation in the top right hand corner. How do I go about achieving the menu that I want?
Thanks, Ben

Along with Steve's suggestions, one can customize the existing PrE Menu Sets, just relying on the "background" Menu Set structure, and adding Still Images, plus doing limited customization to the Text, etc.
To create PrE Menu Sets (like those on Muvipix), one needs two things:
Photoshop (Photoshop Elements has one limitation - it cannot create Layer Sets, unless that has been added to PSE, as of version 11), and then knowledge of what goes into a PrE Menu Set. Because much of the authoring functions in PrE are semi-automatic, the Menu Sets are very involved. Though I create Menus for Adobe Encore, from scratch in Photoshop, I still need one of the Library PrE Menu Sets handy, to get all of those semi-automatic conventions in front of me - lot of stuff required there.
If you cannot customize an existing PrE Menu Set, or find similar at Muvipix, then we can offer some links, that will be helpful, but I strongly recommend that one spend a day, doing a study of the Library Menu Sets, and still having one handy, for the specifics, required. It also helps, if one understands the naming and structural conventions of DVD Menus, and then especially PrE Menu Sets.
Good luck, and let us know if you can find what you need, or something close, that you can customize.

Build a menu from scratch in Premiere Elements?

Is there a way to build a menu from scratch in Premiere Elements, i.e. not use the templates? I want a very simple menu on ONE screen, no sub-menus, etc., and all the templates I try end up creating multiple pages of menus just for the FOUR menu markers in my timeline!
Alternatively, how do I delete multiple pages of a menu, when I have only FOUR menu items and want them all on ONE menu page?
Thank you very much for your help.

robertme
What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system is it running?
You cannot create your own movie menu from scratch using Premiere Elements. The movie menu theme traces back to a main menu psd file and a scene menu psd file and assets. It is the .psd files that need to be created in Photoshop CS or higher because of the essential Layer Sets within the Layers Palette of the .psd file. (There may be other .psd editors that can do this if the can handle Layer Sets and SubLayer Sets, but Photoshop CS or higher will do the job.)
It is often easier to customize the Adobe existing themes at the .psd level than to create them from scratch. Success in this task depends of strict adherence to naming and structural details for creating these menus.
I have done and written a lot about this topic. If interested, please see
