Database connector pre-install question

Context, pg 23 of e10425 Oracle Identity Manager Connector Guide for DB User Mgt.pdf
Any ideas how I can find out the service name used to create users in my Oracle DB, either that or specify one that I can use to have OIM connect to the DB for user creation/maintenance through the DB connector?
I have my DB up and running in a VM, and v9.1.0 of OIM running on my server. I want to use OIM to provision the DB with users.
I'm new to OIM and Oracle DBs, so any advice on this would be much appreciated.
Many thanks in advance,
2Hugh

The service name is the SID of the database.
Assuming you can connect to the db here are some suggestions of how to find the SID How to get SID (instance name) without SYS DBA?
Hope this helps

Upgrading to Mountain Lion Pre Install Questions

HI:
I will be installing Mountain Lion Next week.
I have read through many of the turotrials and quired most of the following I still have a few questions.
I have some concerns in particular regarding the contents of my mail boxes and mail.
I have backed up unto an external harddrive using time machine. When I click on the mail app I can't access it and see if the contents are there. I just get a window showing the specs.
From what I have read all my documents applications and system info are backed up.
1} Will the contents of Mail Inbox and personal Mail Boxes be either on the external drive or in Mail itself after I upgrade?
2} Will I need to up grade iWork and other Mac programs after the upgrade?
3} Does time machines automatic backup, back up everything or do I need to do a manual back up for some thing?
4} Will I need to load new drivers for external devices such as my printer and mouse?
5} Will I need to reload third party soft ware such as Adobe Elements 9?
6} Will my bookmarks and homepage be saved in Safari?
Lot's of Questions, I have limited broad band width and will need to do most of this from a friends and internet cafes so I need to be prepared time wise and finanancialy as some things will have to be done at home and are going to push me into the next teir of my flex plan, possibly past the final teir.
Any and all advice will be appreciated.

1. You have a backup of your mailboxes in Time Machine that you can restore, but Mail won't modify your mailboxes during the upgrade. The first time you open Mail after the upgrade, it will upgrade your mailboxes to be able to work with that new version.
2. If you upgrade from Snow Leopard, you should know that there's a newer iWork '09 version for Lion and Mountain Lion that make it compatible with iCloud, so you will have to install updates for iWork at least. Respecting to other apps, you have to consult it with the developer.
3. Time Machine makes a backup of everything in your OS X partition, and it makes automatic, hourly backups. If you want, you can also make a clone with Carbon Copy Cloner or Disk Utility's Restore feature in another external disk. The advantage is that you can start the Mac from it.
4. Theoretically, Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion use the same printer drivers. Respecting to the mouse, if you are using a third-party mouse, you have to consult with the developer if your mouse is compatible with OS X Mountain Lion.
5. Third-party apps won't be deleted unless they aren't compatible. See > http://www.roaringapps.com
After downloading OS X Mountain Lion, I recommend you to make a bootable copy with Lion Diskmaker, so you won't have to download OS X Mountain Lion each time you have to reinstall OS X Mountain Lion

PPC pre-install question

Dear Archlinux-community!
I'm very excited by the prospect of Archlinux continuing support for the PPC architecture, offcourse it can only work if we as users install and test thoroughly, and report our findings back.
I plan to put Archlinux on a PowerMac G4(Sawtooth), and have been reading about the procedure. One thing puzzles me though.
On the page http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ins … _Linux_PPC
The direct link given to the isos works, and doesnt ask for a password.
However, a little further down, it says:
"When you get to the step where it asks you for the mirror address, enter:"
"ftp://www.archlinuxppc.org/"
This link, asks for a password, possibly because its the ftp used to upload data for the webserver(www. in front).
Should i indeed enter this or should i enter "ftp://archlinuxppc.org"? Will the installer also ask me for a directory, and if so, what should i enter?
As soon as i feel confident i have all the correct information, i will proceed to begin the install, but not before! Learned this lesson a long time ago
Thanks!
Krille

It will be installed depending on what engineer you get and what company he works for.
The data extension connects via IDC terminals at the NTE end, not via a RJ45 or 11 connector.
Depending on who the engineer is depends on what kind of socket/connector he puts on the end of it.
The NTE with an SSFP adds just under an extra inch to its entire width. If it's a flush mounted one it looks ok, wall mounted it stands out like a sore thumb.

Pre-install questions

Hi,
Will bootcamp work on any Intel Mac, or does it have to be Core 2 Duo? (Is Core Duo OK, rather than Core 2 Duo)? Does anyone know if it will work on a white Intel iMac? I read something about a firmware update. Does anyone know if a white iMac needs a firmware update, or is it just certain computers?
Can Windows be installed on an external HD using Bootcamp? Does it need to be Firewire or USB?
Can you install Windows and use the entire HD?
If you install Windows using the entire HD, can you install/use OS X on an external HD? Does it need to be Firewire or is USB ok?
How do you install Windows drivers exactly? Are they on the Leopard disc? Do you use device manager in Windows? Are there alot of know problems with the drivers?

- boot camp should work just fine with your mac.
- Boot camp can be installed on your External Hd disk usb or any kind. But it requires a few alterations. Go to "applications then go to utilities" Then double click on disk utility. Insert your external hard drive usb or any other. Then the icon to your external hard drive shoud apear. Click on it and click on erase. But be sure to not have any important information on you external HD or else everything will be deleted. Once you click on the erase tab and below that you should see volume. Click on it and select "Mac osx extended (journelled)" Once you have done so give it a name and click on erase. Then follow the instruction on how to set up bootcamp.
-To install drivers just insert your Mac OS X Leopard Installation disc. If the installer doesn't pop up then go to windows explorer browse the disc and double click the setup.exe file in the boot Camp directory.
And there you go.

Leopard Single User Pre-Install Question

I have an iBook that is capable of installing Leopard, however I'm about to ditch that laptop in the recycling bin. I'm also about to get an even newer iBook running Tiger. If I put Leopard on my current iBook for now, will I not be able to put it on my new one? Is there any activation service or anything that will stop me from installing it when I get my new one? Thanks!

A single user license means you can only use it on one Mac.
Before disposing of your present one (there are also some folks who might like it) you should clean it. Then, you are free to install OS 10.5 on your new one.
The proper way to "clean" a computer before selling it is to zero the hard drive. This will make all your data irretrievable.
Steps for zeroing the drive Disk Utility:
1. Insert your Mac OS X CD-ROM disc or Restore DVD disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key until you see the spinning gear.
2. Once started up from CD or DVD, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu.
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from disc to access Disk Utility.
3. Choose the entire disk (top icon).
4. Choose erase tab.
5. Click on Options
6. Choose "write zeros".
7. Erase
This will take a bit of time because the computer is physically writing zeros to each block.
You should then re-install the original OS from the system disks and deliver the Mac to the new owner with the system disks that shipped with it. (If you actually dispose of it, this is of course unnecessary)

Delete a record in MDT Database from WinPE during Pre install

Hello Experts,
This is my requirement
1) MDT Deployment database will be updated with MAC address of new laptops.
2) All new laptops will be pre-configured with PXE booting as primary boot option. (When the MAC address is not available on Deployment DB, System boots via hard disc).
3) Deployment Tool Kit (MDT) will deploy the image to all the MAC addresses available on deployment DB (Step 1)
4) After deployment, database entry for corresponding laptop should be deleted automatically such that system boots via hard disc
Is there any way to delete a record from MDT database in Pre-Install step of the task sequence, such that Laptop boots from the hard disc after restart from PE install? Idea is to delete the record of corresponding laptop after PE install such that PXE boor
doesn't pick up anything from the share.
Regards, karthik.

Basically, this would be the same effect if you have a PXE advertisement for a certain number of machines. And your PXE advertisement is always mandatory, except you only want to install machines which occur in the database. Why no try to solve it in another
way? Because this is very devious.
If this post is helpful please click "Mark for answer", thanks! Kind regards

Regarding Database Connector Error

Hi Experts,
I am using BO Edge Series XI 3.0, Crystal report 2008, Live Office XI 3.0 and Xcelsius 2008. I have connected ERP (R/3) system with crystal report and created report. This report are stored in BOE. Using Live Office XI 3.0, created live office document from this crystal report. In Xcelsius, i have imported live office document and created dashboard and generated PDF.swf file.

soapenv:Server.generalException: Database Connector Error: ''

The same error occur when i refresh the crystal report in InfoView also.
The same error occur when i refresh the live office document also. Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Kumar.

Kumar,
Make sure you cross check:
1. The database connector used by the report is installed on all machines from which the report can be run.
2. The necessary database client software required by the database connector is installed and in the PATH environment system variable on all machines from which the report can be run.

Your welcome, gald to be of help
Welcome to Apple Support Communites and to the Mac, after a little time you will be flying!
Make sure if you have not done so yet to run software update to make sure you MBP is up to date, you can do this by clicking on the Apple logo at the top left on your menu bar, and clicking on Software update.
One other thing that will help you when posting here is to make syre your profile is up to date/correct. You have in your profile as of now your MBP model and year which is freat, but you have for your operating system, iOS(mobile devces) 7.02, which would be for and iPhone, iPad, iPod. Your MacBook Pro operates on OSX (which in your case should be 10.8.5, you can find this info under the Apple logo, About this Mac) having this info available to anyone reading a question post is very helpful for them offer advice/sugesstions that may apply to your particular OSX, as well as eliminating confusion.
Thank you for the green check, by marking your respones it helps other users to find solutions if they are having a similar issue, if you are looking for something, after typing yor question, check the right hand side bar under "More Like This" and sometimes you may find an answer there.
Synergy is a great thing.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities and enjoy your new Mac.
One more suggestion is to purchase AppleCare it will extend your warranty to 3 years and you will also have free phone
in-store/online for the entire period. I have done this with my families machines and found it to well woth the relativly small investment.

Yes, normally holding alt key or option key will show your boot choices, but some Linux distros need a boot manager installed.

Question about 'Generic Database Connector'

Hi SAP IdM Gurus,
I found 'Generic Database Connector' in the list of SAP NW IdM connectors overview.
I'd like to check the capability of this connector in detail.
I'm wondering whether it could provide not only a connectivity of RDBMS, but also custom-developed application using the RDBSM for their ID/Password repository. If it provides only a connectivity of RDBMS, Is there a connector for the custom-developed application using the RDBSM for their ID/Password repository?
My question is that which connector is used for the connectivity of custom-developed application using the RDBSM for their ID/Password repository.
I would really appreciate it if you could answer the question.
Thanks
Kenneth

Kenneth,
The Generic Database connector uses a JDBC connection and allows for the and writing to databases.
That being said, you can also use this connection to set up access to the system or drop access using SQL commands and set them up per the framework.
What specific Database are you working with?

Question about activation key for pre-installed software after hard drive failure.

I had a hard drive failure on my MacBook Pro last week and had it replaced by Apple. When I restored my computer with a Time Machine backup, Office 2011 wants an activation key to start up again. Problem is, I had Office pre-installed when I bought my MacBook by Apple. Where do I get the activation key to get it working again?
Thanks
Q

Do you still have the signons.sqlite and key3.db files from the IT setup?
You can find the sync account password and the sync (recovery) key in the password manager on computers where a sync account with a specific e-mail address has been set up.
Look for:
* chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Password)
* chrome://weave (Mozilla Services Encryption Passphrase)

Modprobe question (pre-install drm modules via modprobe on start-up)

I'm trying to follow the dri building guide but archlinux doesn't have /etc/modules.conf so what do I do?
2.6.x kernels:
pre-install <drm module> /sbin/modprobe "-k" "agpgart"
pre-install agpgart /sbin/modprobe "-k" "<agp chipset driver>"
Thats what I'm trying to do. For more info go here:
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Buildin … 16c0c945a7
I don't know if I should make a /etc/modules.conf or add what to what. Specific instructions would be great. Btw i have a via chipset (vt8237) and an ati radeon (9800 pro) graphics card. Thanks in advance.
btw correct me if I'm wrong:
/etc/rc.conf:
LOCALE="en_US.utf8"
HARDWARECLOCK="UTC"
USEDIRECTISA="no"
TIMEZONE="America/Chicago"
KEYMAP="us"
CONSOLEFONT=
CONSOLEMAP=
USECOLOR="yes"
#not sure if a line in MODULES=(...) should be made or not
MOD_AUTOLOAD="yes"
MODULES=(pre-install radeon /sbin/modprobe "-k" "agpgart"
pre-install agpgart /sbin/modprobe "-k" "via_agp")
USELVM="no"
HOSTNAME="archie"
eth0="eth0 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
INTERFACES=(eth0)
gateway="default gw 192.168.0.1"
ROUTES=(gateway)
DAEMONS=(!syslog-ng !netfs !crond network hal fam alsa gdm)
Now what do I put in /etc/modprobe.conf (if anything) because I'm really confused

By default, the only modprobe.conf file that exists in a new install will be blank. The file is mostly used to either pass specific arguments to a kernel on boot-up so these args will be then inserted into userspace and used by whatever app needs them. EG: There are examples of this regarding Alsa and blacklisting or adding special arguments in modprobe.conf for the hda-intel on-board soundcards.
As to what to put into that file, I can't tell you (didn't read the link yet). I can tell you that you likely should just create it first then re-read what you're trying to do. These lines won't go into rc.conf, that much I know:
pre-install <drm module> /sbin/modprobe "-k" "agpgart"
pre-install agpgart /sbin/modprobe "-k" "<agp chipset driver>"
In all likelihood you must either insert these into the modprobe.conf file itself OR run them as root commands. As I said, haven't read the link so I don't know for sure. Sorry, and I don't have time to read up much more.

Database Connector Error (ODBC, SYBASE) in CR

Hi,
I'm running Crystal Reports 2008 and Business Objects Edge 3.0.
In CR there is connection to SYBASE database trought SYBASE ODBC driver. This ODBC connection is established on my local computer and on BOE server too.
When I try to refresh CR reports from Infoview or CMC, an erorr occured - Error in File ~tmp150c5bec67474b0.rpt: Database Connector Error.
When I open this file in Crystal Reports installed on the BOE server, everything works fine.
When I open this file in Crystal Reports installed on my local computer, everything works fine.
Any idea how to solve this?
Btw, some reports are working fine. I've created some small simple reports (one table or one command) and saved them to the CMS. Refreshing works fine.
And maybe relevant question to this - I entered all required informations in Database configuration of my CR report (report properties). But BOE even thouht asks for username and password.
I've tried both "use original database logon informations" and "use custom database logon informations". Same results.
Thanks in advance
Peter

I've uninstalled SAP BO Edge 3.0 and I've installed the version 3.1
