DC support for OCS

Hi all,
I have tried OCS 2007 deployment in windows server 2008 R2.
But it throws an error while Preparing Forest.
It seems like one of the pre-requisite is not satisfied.
pre-requiisite is .
-Ensure that microsoft active directory service in microsoft
windows 2003 OS Native mode.

  • Maximum no of users supported by OCS 10.1.2 in a single box installation ?

    Hi OCS experts,
    What is the maximum number of users supported by OCS 10.1.2 in a single box installation for a 6 way Intel box or a 12way AIX box.???
    I mean if the server hardware (processor, memory, and storage are huge enough)...
    Are there any limits by the software side of OCS ???
    I am planning to deploy OCS for about 15,000 users on Redhat Linux AS 4. We also have the option to deploy it on AIX if required.
    Many thanks,
    maas.

    Many thanks. But as OCS 10.1.2 documentation indicates upto 1,000 users for single server installation. So I wanted to know if there is any practical limit by the OCS software itself on the number of users in single server deployment on Linux.
    Like for instance IBM indicates that domino 7 can now go upto 12,000 users in a single box.
    Is there any similar recommendation from Oracle to ease in capacity planning decisions for Architects and Implementers.???
    I understand that it would be a very difficult prediction keeping in mind the huge functionality of OCS. So let me narrow the scope of our deployment, In the beginning we would using OCS mostly for Email (15,000 users) and about 2000 of these users would also be using calendering. 4,000 Email users use POP clients to check emails frequently. Remaining users use Webmail to check emails upto 2 or 3 times a day.
    Now, if you experts advice that a six way IBM eServer X445 server with 16GB RAM and sufficient SAN storage would be able to take this load then I can go ahead with it. Do I have to take any specific measure in design and deployement to leave room for adding nodes.
    Many thanks,
    maas

  • Is United Linux supported by OCS?

    I decided to start a new thread on this.
    My main concern is that I want to test OCS on a supported OS. We would use the same OS we tested on of course for the production computer. From my understanding, Oracle will provide support down to the OS level if you use a supported linux operating system, RedHat AS is supported according to the install docs. If we HAVE TO use RedHat AS or ES then we have to use it. I'm interested in using SuSE Linux which is part of United Linux, we use it a lot at my company. I've spoken with a technical contact at Oracle regarding OCS and they said that United Linux is NOT supported yet.
    However, according to SuSE they have Oracle certification for OCS:
    http://www.suse.com/en/business/certifications/certified_software/oracle/certified.html
    There is some informatio about this on the following Oracle sites:
    http://otn.oracle.com/tech/linux/htdocs/oracleonlinux_faq.html
    http://otn.oracle.com/tech/linux/htdocs/linux_techsupp_faq.html
    According to the above sites there is support down to the Operating System level for OCS on United Linux. Has anyone heard differently? Perhaps the technical consultant was misinformed?

    I can't get to Metalink since I am not a paying customer yet. I'm trying to find a way to best test this. Is there any way I can get the tips for installing OCS under United Linux? Anyone else have experience installing under UL and know whether or not it's fully supported? Thanks.

  • [b]Possibility to run 9iAS for OCS in clustered mode[/b]

    Possibility to run 9iAS for OCS in clustered mode
    Hi,
    we're using two nodes of 9iAS in two data centers. We've been told that it isn't possible to add the 9iAS to a 9iAS cluster. Does anybody has experience to use two nodes of 9iAS of OCS2 as cluster with load balancing and automatic configuration deployment functionality?
    Any help would be welcomed...
    Kind regards,
    Tobias Hitzfeld

    You can use RAC for the databases but the infrastructure is only supported with HA CFC (Cold failover Cluster). You can look at the document for this in this location.

  • Codecs for OCS

    Hi,
    we have CUCM 7.0.1 & CUPS 7.0.2 integrated with OCS, with the MOC client setup as a remote destination for each IP Phone. Everything is located at HQ site with two branch sites hanging off the main site.
    From my understanding is that OCS only does G711, so my question is how does the remote branch speak to a MOC client at the HQ site.....in other words if a remote branch IP Phone dials a HQ IP Phone it is G729 but the call is answered on the HQ MOC client and so the call fails.
    how does one get around this?
    thnx
    charl

    I don't know anything (although I would be shocked if new DNG variants are "proprietary", probably documentation and other support for it is just lagging - this a guess), except it could be that the DNG enhancements are part of the 1.4 spec and that the codecs only support up through 1.3.
    Note: ACR version (e.g. 6.6, 7.1) is not the same as DNG version (e.g. 1.3, 1.4).
    There's a reason they call it the bleeding edge...
    If it's any consolation, exiftool does not support v1.4 yet either.

  • Staffing Requirements for OCS

    Hello,
    We are currently running an Oracle 5.4 stand-alone calendar server with approximately 900 accounts and are considering deploying OCS 10g campus-wide to a student body of approximately 25,000 students and 5,000 staff members. We would initially support the calendaring and mail components and eventually introduce support for the other components.
    I have been asked to provide an estimate of the staffing costs on an annual basis to deploy and support OCS. Has anyone worked out what the staffing requirements are on an annual basis to support Collaboration Suite?
    Thanks very much for your time.
    Brenda

    Hi Brenda!
    This is difficult indeed.
    It surely depends on the level of self service you implement and again the number of components.
    Some universities I know handle this with their normal helpdesk - so it's difficult to calculate the numer in full time jobs.
    You should try to automate the process of creating account with the HR and student administration office, so that an account is created when a new user arrives. Cleaning up and general housekeeping should be part of the system management.
    So you are left with general helpdesk issues like password resets, some first line troubleshooting and so on. Start with two people and look how they can cope with the workload.
    If you use wireless in order to sync calendar entries and email some more activities in the system management and helpdesk are to be anticipated. This could easily result in one more full time job.
    Hope this helps.

  • Lack of support for Canon G7 and G9. Alternatives?

    I am really disappointed about the lack of support for the Canon G9, and looking at the list of compatible cameras (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=306835) I notice that Canon G7 - even if it does not have a RAW format, is not supported either.
    I am thinking that the purchase of the G9 may have been premature and that I may need to sell it and get another cam that is supported by Apple/Aperture.
    What would you guys do? Is there a cam out there similar to the G9 at the moment that has a Apple-supported RAW format?
    Best regards,
    Kjell Are Refsvik

    I think the camera closest to the G9 that has RAW support from Apple are the Panasonic DMC-LX2/Leica D-Lux 3 twins. Don't know where you are, but in the US, the Panasonic costs about $400. 10MP, 28-112mm (35mm equivalent) Leica lens, very compact body, and RAW output. The Leica costs $599, and has that classic look.
    I don't know much about that cameras, but you may want to investigate.

  • Why no SyncML-support for Harmattan??

    I've used SyncML on my N95 with memotoo.com for years. Worked very well. I took it for granted that SyncML would be supported on the N9. But alas, it isn't. I find that really incomprehensible. Worse yet, CalDAV syncing with memotoo doesn't work - I don't know who's to blame for this, but on the desktop it works flawelessly so I do have a suspicion. Even worse: there is no way to sync contacts using CardDAV.
    MeeGo (the true MeeGo) has SyncML-support out-of-the-box. And the N9/N950 does have SyncML-support for bluetooth.
    Yes, contacts syncing is supported for Ovi. And Google. And Facebook. But I do NOT want to use those services, because of grave privacy risks and because they use yet again some proprietary protocols.
    I wonder, what where they thinking at Nokia for NOT supporting some well-known open standards??
    (While I'm ranting: why is there ^%@$ Facebook and GTalk-support over XMPP, but no self-defined XMPP account?? Yes, you can add such accounts from the terminal, using mc-tool, but really that's just a kick in the teeth. And where's UPnP/DLNA-support?)

    Hey Guys, Did you figure out any way to do PIM sync via SyncML on N9?
    I am struggling to get things moving as I come from N8.
    N9 just doesnt have any way to sync calendar, tasks with Ovi. Same with Notes.

  • ISE 1.2.1 support for Yosemite?

    Hello all, just curious. I see in the release notes for ISE 1.2.X that support for Mac OS 10.10 (Yosemite) was available via patch 12 on the ISE1.2.0 train of code. That said, I see nothing in the release notes stating any support for Yosemite for any of the patches for ISE1.2.1, the latest being patch 3 released 1 week after ISE 1.2.0 patch 12. Can anyone please advise if Yosemite is in fact supported on 1.2.1 with patch 3??
    Thank you very much in advance for your help
    Jeff

    Jeff,
    OS X 10.10 is supported in ISE 1.2 p11, 1.2.1 p2 and 1.3.
    Patch 12 for 1.2 and Patch 3 for 1.2.1 fix other issues for OS X 10.10, and I recommend updating to the latest patches for these fixes.
    Here is the entry in the Release Notes detailing the fix for 10.10 in 1.2 p 12:
    MacOsXAgent versrion 4.9.5.3 should be used and MacOsXSPWizard 1.0.0.30
    Note that the description for these files denote ISE 1.2 Patch 11/12, ISE 1.3 release and above.  ISE 1.2.1 is not mentioned, but follows the bug fix/release schedule for 1.2, with an adjustment.
    1.2 patch 10 = 1.2.1 patch 1

  • Apple Support for FCE HD - $200 per call???

    i had what was probably a minor issue with editing in final cut express hd today. So naturally, i called applecare. They told me that it had been past the 90 days given to us for support from the point of purchase. Fine. However, the apple support representative went on to tell me that Applecare does NOT support pro applications and that i have to pay $199 per incident? I paid $299 for the product itself! Last i checked, i-pods were selling pretty well and i don't think steve jobs needs that money! Is apple serious? Where do they get off charging $200 for a ONE TIME PHONE CALL? Just because FCE HD is a "pro" application, apple can't assume that everyone who purchases this product is a "pro" from the start!
    Where else am i supposed to get phone technical support for FCE HD??

    These forums are here to give you technical advice. Admittedly it is not over the phone but it is FREE and lasts for ever.
    Also you will have the collective knowledge of numerous people not just the one "expert" you happen to be speaking to.

  • How do I get support for Windows 7 on, and a W7 backup disk for, my new ThinkPad?

    I know these have got to be stupid questions, since I am sure that they have to have been asked before (unless they are clearly explained somewhere that everyone else has found, and I am somehow completely missed it), but I did search the forums and was surprised NOT to find any info on getting Windows 7 technical support after it was factory installed in a month-old Thinkpad. I wonder if the apparent defects in my W7, or maybe a different problem in my browser, could be affecting my ability to search to forums?
    I believe that my Windows 7 is defective, but calling Lenovo, they just talked about reinstalling Win7 from the partition, which makes no sense, if my W7 copy is defective, wouldn't the copy in the partition be defective too? My mom said she ordered a $20 W7 backup disk with the PC, but I never received it, and now Lenovo tech tells me those aren't actually available, and she must have confused it with the W7 upgrade disk, which didn't sound right, since I thought the upgrade disk was over $100, and I never received that one either anyway. If the W7 that was factory-installed is defective, I am assuming it's a copy of the same one in the partition, so that partition recovery is not feasible, is there any way to reorder a W7 re-install disk that will still register as Genuine Windows 7 on a Thinkpad? Now when I search the Lenovo site, I cannot find ANY W7 disks of any kind, neither a backup for factory-installed W7, nor for upgrade from a prior Windows version. Does anyone know how I could go about re-ordering the W7 backup disk when it appears to be missing from the online catalog? Unless this too is a defect in my browser search: can someone give me the link to page where I could select and re-purchase a W7 backup disk?
    It has been a few years since I had a new PC, but I have never even heard of one before that did not come with instruction manuals and OS and support disks, and did not provide any tech support for its own factory-installed software or Windows, at least during the first few months of ownership. Where do new Thinkpad owners turn for individual W7 software support, since Microsoft swears it is Lenovo's responsibility to support W7 under its OEM license, yet Lenovo swears they only support hardware? It almost seems that new users are expected to know everything already, or be initiated enough with the product to know exactly what your problem is and what's causing it, in order to find an online fix. Who do you call if W7 or Lenovo software (but not an ISP issue) appear to be doing something to prevent online access, but there are no discernible hardware issues? Where do you call for individualized W7, as well as Lenovo software, support, especially after no one online has ever heard of your specific issues and has no workable ideas for fixing them, or when your problem prevents you from getting online at all?
    Thanks so much
