Cross-platform connection

IS it possible to have a Workshop instance that is installed on Windows talking
to a remote WLS on UNIX? If so, how should the server properties be set?
Thanks
Niz

All internet settings are based on TCP/IP which is a pretty universal standard.
By default the router should be happy to share the cable modem connection with any number of devices on your local network.
As such there shouldn't be any issue hooking up your Mac, your PC, your PlayStation 3, XBox, Blu-Ray player as well as any other device you have that uses IP networking.
Also are there any suggestions for router make/model that would simplify this setup?
For pure simplicity and ease of use you can't beat the Apple Base Stations (and, yes, they'll work with your PC, etc.)

  • External Hard Drive won't appear on PC (want cross platform)

    I have an external USB Hard Drive. I formatted it using the Disk Utility, OS Format and Journaling. Did a small partition in case I needed a system boot drive. Now my sis needed to backup her laptop (Dell laptop), but the drive won't appear in My Computer, it recognizes there is a USB device on the lower task bar, but no drive anywhere.
    Do I have to reformat? what steps do I need to make this USB drive cross-platform friendly?
    Paul

    Hi, Paul.
    You may not want to reformat the drive as FAT-32 since there is a limit on the size of the partition, the maximum file size, and other issues, especially if her Dell's drive is formatted as NTFS (FAT-32 does not support NTFS extended attributes). FAT-32 is unsuitable for backing-up Mac OS X volumes as it cannot preserve the extended attributes (permissions, etc.) employed by Mac OS X.
    It's really best if you each have your own external hard drive for backup, as part of implementing a comprehensive Backup and Recovery solution, such as I use and detail in my "Backup and Recovery" FAQ. You also don't want one person inadvertently writing over another person's backups, which could happen if one is not careful. Furthermore, it is often easiest for recovery.
    How one handles backup in cross-platform environments is tricky and depends on the native formats employed by the different computers involved, and whether backup will be performed over a network or by directly connecting backup drives to the computers one is backing up.
    To enable her Dell to use the Mac-formatted drive, install Mediafour's MacDrive for Windows on the PC. MacDrive for Windows is probably the state-of-the-art application for enabling you to use Mac-formatted disks and hard drives on Windows-based PCs.
    Good luck!

  • Cross platform migration from hp unix to sun

    Hi
    recently we have done cross platform migration from hp unix to sun (10g R2 RAC +ASM). It was a challenging experience to complete the migration in 8 hours downtime for a database of about 2 TB.
    I would like to share the experience , so that it would be hepfull to others and i would learn more new techniques for improvement .
    source environment:
    HP-UX -ITANIUM - 2 node RAC - 10g R2 - Oracle clusterware - ASM - Heavily loaded all the time .
    Destination Env:
    Sun solaris 10 - 2 node RAC - 10g R2 - Oracle Clusterware - ASM
    Total Downtime available : 6 hours.
    Steps followed
    1. snapshot backup of source database on a intermediate HP-Unix box. (stage area)
    2. recover the database and start the rman image backup on to disk in stage area.
    3. mount this filesystem locally (Veritas ) on to one of the node in the destination env.
    4. Mount this filesystem as NFS on second node using a cross cable between both of them (we can use interconnect VLAN also here)
    5. Keep applying the archive logs from source env till the downtime .
    5. startup nomount the database , change the datafile names from ASM to RMAN image copy files and mount.
    6. start rman convert statements and pump into the already exisitng ASM nodes with parallel sessions as much as possible (with 35 sets (513 datafiles) we were able to pump 2 TB data in 4.5 Hrs) - only system and undo datafiles need a convert statements (platform migration ) others would need a file system to ASM conversion only.
    7. alter database open resetlogs in the destination environment.
    8. create services manually and start the application.
    we were given very less time to decide upon this stategy , By gods grace we were able to complete it .
    I got a doubt while we are chalking out this plan .
    can we connect to ASM instance remotely and pump data from one ASM to another ASM. It seems it is not possible , just a wild thought.
    Let me know if you see any more improvements in this.
    Thanks

  • Recommended way to unit test mobile cross platform C++ in Visual Studio 2015

    Hello,
    I'm playing with the new Visual Studio 2015 to check its capabilities for cross platform development using C++ as coding language. I've seen several videos in Channel9 about this feature but I don't remember hearing in any of these a word about how
    to unit test such projects from Visual Studio 2015. Is there some recommended way to create unit tests for such projects?
    I'm not sure I can use Visual Studio test projects for C++ to test the android library or the Windows Phone 8.1. If I add a new platform ARM to a test project of those, I cannot select in the platform toolset combo the values that I have for my libraries
    (Clang 3.4 and Windows 8.1 respectively). So it seems that such test projects are not addressed for cross platform c++ in VS2015.
    I also have tried to make a second cross platform library project to contain the tests, adding there the Catch.h file from catch framework or adding the files from Google Test framework. My idea was to link each cross platform test library with their corresponding
    "production code" libraries. In both cases (catch and gtest) I have problems when trying to compile the test framework files (not sure if it is not possible or just my fault being new at C++ for mobile platforms).
    Has anyone succeeded unit testing the cross platform c++ code in VS2015? How?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jorge.

    Hi Jorge,
    Thanks you for posting in MSDN forum.
    Based on your issue, since VS2015 Preview is previews for the next major release of Visual Studio, currently we forums don’t provide support for VS2015 Preview. So the product team would accept the suggestions or feedbacks for the VS2015 now.
    So you can submit the feedback/suggestions to Microsoft Connect feedback portal:
    http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/CreateFeedback.aspx, Microsoft engineers will evaluate them seriously. Thanks for your understanding.

  • RMAN Full Database restore cross platforms

    All
    I have a database 10.2.0.3 running on Solaris 10 OS.
    I have performed a full back up (level 0) of this database using rman utility with auto back up on. I am trying to worl on a scenario where I could restore this backup on another linux machine. so I copied over all the backup pieces into the target linux server. from a local RDBMS installation (10.2.0.3) on the linux machine I am trying to restore the database... but not successful yet..
    when I issue restore spfile or restore control file from +<backup file name>+; the prompt continues to search in some location is responding back saying no back up piece found.. below is the sequece of step I am trying ..
    1 set up env on the linux server
    2 rman target /
    (instance not started but rman allows connection)
    3 set DBID=+<DB ID of the source database running on Solaris>+
    it executes set dbid=
    4 startup nomount
    as the pfile/spfile is not available under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs on linux machine it picks up default pfile however but the instance stars no mount..
    5 restore spfile from '/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/rman_bkp/c-300009955'
    here it is not able to restore any thing.same is the case with control file.
    Any ideas please advice

    Thanks for the referance. I now understand that I may not be able to use transportable database command to transport the entire db. However there is a line in the +"Restrictions on Cross-Platform Transportable Database"+ which says +"The principal restriction on cross-platform transportable database is that the source and destination platform must share the same endian format. For example, while you can transport a database from Microsoft Windows to Linux for x86 (both little-endian), or from HP-UX to AIX (both big-endian), you cannot transport a whole database from HP_UX to Linux for x86 using this feature. You can, however, create a new database on a destination platform manually, and transport needed tablespaces from the source database using cross-platform transportable tablespace as described in "Cross-Platform Tranportable Tablespace: CONVERT DATAFILE or TABLESPACE"."+
    I understand if we are ready to transport every tablespace from Source to Target individually, may then be able to replicate a transportable database. Does the transportable tablespace do not have any restrictions like the transport database has got in respect to Platforms and Endian? Please clarify.
    Also is there a support matrix for thr transportable database and tablespaces which we could refer to ?
    Regards!
    SaratSarat,
    The same restriction that is there for the transport of the whole database lies completely true for the transportable tablespace as well if you are going for the cross platform. Endian must match across the platforms than only you can do this otherwise, as like the database feature, you need to convert the source file to the target endian.
    If you look at the reference doc for the Trasnport Tablespace command,
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/backup.102/b14194/rcmsynta063.htm#RCMRF1919
    This restriction is documented there besides other restrictions
    >
    Restrictions and Usage Notes
    The limitations on creating transportable tablespace sets described in Oracle Database Administrator's Guide apply to transporting tablespaces from backup, with the exception of the requirement to make the tablespaces read-only.
    TRANSPORT TABLESPACE does not perform endian format conversion. If the target platform has a different endian format, then you must use the RMAN CONVERT command to perform the separate step of converting the endian format of the datafiles in the transportable set.

  • Cross platform migrate repository and oms, gets "EM Key Verification Error"

    Hello,
    I am trying to cross platform migrate repository and oms from Sun Solaris Sparc 64 bit to Linux x86-64bit.
    Environment:
    Original repository Oracle 10.2.0.3, OMS 10.2.0.5, Sun Solaris Sparc 64 bit
    New repositoy Oracle 10.2.0.3, OMS 10.2.0.5, Linux x86-64bit
    Following metalink note:
    Subject: How To Move Grid Control Oms & Repository To Another Server
    Doc ID: 853293.1
    to step 4:
    4. Point the new OMS to the new repository
    can't get over emkey corrupt issue, gets error:
    2009-10-13 14:07:24,570 [AJPRequestHandler-ApplicationServerThread-11] ERROR conn.ConnectionService verifyRepositoryEx.918 - EM Key Verification Error = Em key does not match with repos verifier
    2009-10-13 14:07:27,910 [Shutdown] ERROR em.notification unregisterOMS.2573 - Error unregistering: EM Key is Missing java.sql.SQLException: EM Key is Missing
    The newly installed additional OMS can only point to the original repository and can't point to the newly migrated repository.
    Steps I did:
    Install an addition OMS to point to original repository (make sure emkey is in repository)
    create a new empty database on new host with a new name (is new name caused problem?)
    migrate old repository to new (use export/import)
    point new OMS to new repository by modifing emoms.properties
    startup oms and gets emkey corrupt error
    This metalink note does not help either:
    Subject: The Em Key is not configured properly. Run "emctl status emkey" for more details.
    Doc ID: 817035.1
    I also have a SR open but still have no help from Oracle support. I did make sure the emkey is in the repository before migrate. There may be tricks that I don't know.
    Can anyone shed some light on this?
    Thank you for your help in advance.

    Hi, I'm having the same issue.
    Our original installation was on Windows 32bit with the repository and OMS on the same host. I want to move the repository to a linux 64bit host to make more resource available for everything. The new database is 11.1.0.7 though. As the Grid control release is 10.2.0.5 Oracle Support have confirmed that the 11g database is OK to use.
    In the log I see a lot of this:
    [AJPRequestHandler-ApplicationServerThread-5] ERROR conn.ConnectionService verifyRepositoryEx.911 - Invalid Connection Pool. ERROR = ORA-01031: insufficient privileges

    Unfortunately that package is wrapped so I can't see what privs are required.
    The instructions say (simplified here) either datapump or exp/imp to the new database, run some admin scripts, then update the emoms.properties with the new connection information. Thats it - start OMS again and it should work.
    Thankfully I can turn the old repository back on while I sift through these logs.

  • Cross platform CS on PC to CS3 on Mac does not work like video says

    Your video on cross platform workflow states that you can import older Premier CS files on a PC into CS3 on a Mac. I tried this and get the message, "this project was saved in a aversion prior to Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and cannot be opened on a Mac. Please refer to the User Guide for import options." I guess I have to assume then that the video, www.adobe.com/go/vid0236, is wrong about this? Can someone please explain how I can salvage the work I did 3 years ago on Premiere Pro 1 on a PC when I am now exclusively working on the Mac in CS3?
    Thank you.

    Ty,
    This has come up a few times and the solution is to find a PC CS3 user, who will Open the Project and then Save it in CS3-CS4 for you. I does mean that you'll have to befriend a PC-person, but who knows, maybe you can reciprocate later on. In each previous instance, this workflow, PC to PC to Mac worked perfectly. Note: the same holds for Encore Projects, and there is some PC to PC incompatibilities between very early versions and later versions. I had to Open and Save an Enocre 1.0 Project in CS2, so a CS4 (only) user could then Open in CS4. This stuff happens, and the skip in Mac porting can play a role in it. If I had CS3 on my PC's, I'd do it for you, but CS2 will not hlep you.
    I believe that P 6.5 was the last previous version ported for the Mac, until CS3.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • Which product to purchase (cross platform necessary from Mac to PC) Adobe Photoshop 6.0.x to ???

    I have ancient Mac photoshop and pagemaker files. i need best cross platform product for windows that can access these files. adobe photoshop is my primary concern. I understand the indesign cs2 will import old school mac photoshop 6.0.x but is not compatible with windows 7 ... thank you.
    In particular we use windows 7 x64
    So in summary, need to determine which Windows 7 x64 version of Indesign CSxx will still open archaic Mac Adobe files (layouts, EPS, etc).  Or is there a similar product that must be obtained.  I prefer to stick to Adobe products, however, if I must go elsewhere and you can help -- please advise. 
    Also, if you know what I should obtain, does this product have a trial download option that I can test functionality before purchase?  Warranty when I do buy information -- and return policy in general?
    Many thanks.

    PM support has long been pulled from InDesign. You are going to need some old version like CS or CS2 and save an intermediate step to ID files. PS is not a probelm at all. All programs have 30day trials and Adobe has a general 14day return policy. Refer to the product pages on teh website.

  • PDF with special characters (é, ñ) needs to be legible cross-platform(mac & pc)

    I am using Illustrator to design a PDF. Because it's in Spanish, accent marks and other special characters are needed (á, ñ).
    When I export the PDF from the ai file and view it on my mac it looks fine. However, when I open it on a pc some of the special characters are completely missing.
    I tried Creating Outlines with the text, although it will make it harder to update in the future and so less preferable to leaving the text editable. Creating Outlines works fine on the mac, however on the pc the L's appear thicker than they actually are.
    Does anyone know how to make special characters legible cross-platform when creating a PDF using Illustrator?
    Thanks!!

    Does anyone know how to make special characters legible cross-platform when creating a PDF using Illustrator?
    Yes. You use a correct OpenType font that has the glyphs in the place where they belong and can be embedded without limitations. Older TrueType or PostScript fonts are simply unsuitable as are fonts that cannot be emebdded and require to be installed locally. It all comes down to system language settings vs. the unified environment inside acrobat. This also requires any PDF to be created on systems with the language settings correct in the first place, i.e. creating Spanish text with a Japanese version of AI would be pretty desastrous due to how foreign language fonts are accessed... check these things and then try again. If possible, enforce embedding of the full font in the PDF settings, not just a subset and choose a suitable font.

  • Email images and signatures not displaying cross platform??

    I have noticed something odd when emailing people who are using windows. For some reason, attachments and signatures that are images (.jpg files that WILL open in a browser on the PC) or PDF's do not show up in the body of the email I send to them. Yet they are using HTML email, and emails they send to ME do have images showing up correctly in both the body of the email and the signatures on my Mac. Is there something on my end that I need to do in the formating to make this cross platform? Has anyone else run into this?
    I'm confused, I thought HTML was HTML....

    Same here... in Outlook 2007 many times the Mac email signature ends up as an HTM attachment... Any news on this odd behavior!

    Unfortunately there is no choices for you when comes to MAC.
    Windows has over
    30 really good screensaver tools, some of which very capable
    and totally free.
    Myself do not use Mac but friends who do, use the
    "screentime" as preferred tool.
    Check the features, see what you need and which tools deliver
    what you looking
    for than pick the winner :)

  • Cross platform "work around?"

    I've done some searching, so I know the answer to cross platform product transfers is a resounding no.  I have a mac and I originally bought CS5 for Windows a few years ago when I had a PC.  The PC has since died.  It appears there's a few ways mac users can switch between running OSX and Windows on their Macs though.  My question is, if you ran the Windows operating system on a Mac, would you be able  to install /use a Windows CS5 disc on your mac at that point?  Theoretically it would seem possible.  Anyone have any experience with this?

    Just remember that Virtual machines and machine emulation does not perform as well as running a programs in it native environment.  Also some things may not work exactly like the should.  If you hace a PC CS5 licence you can upgrade that to Mac Photoshop CS6 standard for  $200 or Extended for $400
