Discovery Linux - The target address is unreachable

SCOM 2012 R2.
Linux - Oracle Linux Server release 6.3
I am using root.
Error:
WinRM cannot complete the operation. Verify that the specified computer name is valid, that the computer is accessible over the network, and that a firewall exception for the WinRM service is enabled and allows access from this computer. By default, the WinRM
firewall exception for public profiles limits access to remote computers within the same local subnet.
It is possible that:
1. The destination computer is unreachable (because it is down, or due to a firewall issue).
2. The destination certificate is signed by another certificate authority not trusted by the management server.
3. The destination has an invalid certificate, e.g., its common name (CN) does not match the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) used for the connection.
4. The servers in the resource pool have not been configured to trust certificates signed by other servers in the pool.
DNS is correct, port 22 opened, ping is OK, telnet server 22 is OK.
I was using manuals and nothing.
What should I do?

To resolve this issue
Verify that Management Server can ping the agent host by Fully-Qualified Domain Name
Verify that no network firewalls or host firewall is blocking TCP port 1270

Treats every graphic link/button like a view image rather than directing me to the target address.

Not sure how to explain this -
if I'm visiting a website and click on a graphic link, it directs me to a new tab displaying the graphic image I just clicked, rather than the target site. It treats every graphic link (or button) like I'm asking to "view image".
I've tried right clicking to "open link in new tab" - same result.
Sorry I can't explain it any clearer.

Dynamically define target address for logical ports (NW'04)

Hello,
when developing a web-service client using standalone proxy, you have to define the target address of a Web Service in the property-page for the Logical Port.
We have the following problem. If, for any reason, the URL of the Web Service changes (i.e. the hostname or the port), we have to rebuild the whole project and then redeploy the project.
Is there a way to change this URL dynamically by java-code?
Thanks in advance,
Jarle

Hi,
You can get Server name Dynamically. You follow the below steps.
1. Create a HTTP Destination in visual administrator which stores the server name and port.
2. Access this variable in your controller init method and build your web service url with server name and port and use _setEndPoint() method
String prefixURL = "http://";
// your Service Address...remove the first part from service url.
String serviceURL = "/TestService/Config1?style=document";
DestinationService dstService = (DestinationService) obj;
Destination destination = dstService.getDestination("HTTP","ApplicationServer");
Properties destprop = destination.getDestinationProperties();
HTTPDestination httpDestination = (HTTPDestination) destination;
String serverName = httpDestination.getUrl();
prefixURL = prefixURL + serverName;
String testURL = prefixURL + serviceURL;
Request<Obj> testReq = new Request<Obj>();
testReq._setEndPoint(testURL);
You need to import below files into your project.
import com.sap.security.core.server.destinations.api.Destination;
import com.sap.security.core.server.destinations.api.DestinationService;
import com.sap.security.core.server.destinations.api.HTTPDestination;
import java.net.HttpURLConnection;
import java.util.Properties
hope it solved your problem.

Need Mailbox Sizes and Target addresses from 2003 mailboxes

Hi Bobby,
Sorry for my lack knowledge about script and code. According to your description, I understand that you are using a script to get all mailboxes size and target address information from Exchange 2003. For more professional suggestions, I recommend you can
also ask a question in Script Center for more help:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/scriptcenter/en-US/home?forum=ITCG
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us.
Sorry for any inconvenience and thanks for your understanding.

Issue while executing the discovery command from target nodes

Hi Experts.
I had to create cluster two node using openfile, after creation of successful lun and associated partition from all the nodes i have changed the ip address of openfiler.
After changing the IP on open filer.
A) openfile version:-
[root@san ~]# uname -r
2.6.26.8-1.0.11.smp.pae.gcc3.4.x86.i686
B) Linux Oel5:-
[root@rac1 ~]# uname -r
2.6.18-194.el5xen
[root@rac1 ~]#
1:- I am able to ping and ssh etc from any node to openfiler.
However, while executing the below command i am facing the below exception..
service iscsi restart
Stopping iSCSI daemon:
iscsid dead but pid file exists [ OK ]
Starting iSCSI daemon: [ OK ]
[ OK ]
Setting up iSCSI targets: iscsiadm: No records found!
[ OK ]
[root@rac1 ~]#
Moreover, tried to discover the targets, unfortunately no message is getting displayed after execution of this below command.
[root@rac1 ~]# iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p 192.168.37.200
[root@rac1 ~]#
The quick response will be appreciated as my whole test case is down as of now due storage issues.
Thanks,
Arch.

Are you running a firewall that needs to be adjusted to support your changed Openfiler IP network?

Exchange 2010 to 2013 cross forest migration doesn't have an SMTP address that matches the target delivery domain

I’m having a problem moving a mailbox from exchange 2010 sp3 to Exchange 2013 which are in two separate forests.
Two way trust in place
Certificates imported
ADMT is set up.
SMTP namespace oldcompany.org and newcompany.org for the old email domain and new one is configured to be shared between forests.
I’m doing the following:
Step 1
Prepare-MoveRequest.ps1 -Identity [email protected] -RemoteForestDomainController DC1. oldcompany.Local -RemoteForestCredential $RemoteCredentials -LocalForestDomainController DC1. newcompany.local -LocalForestCredential $LocalCredentials -TargetMailUserOU
"OU=Office Users , DC=newcompany,DC=local" –verbose
Everything goes ok, and a disabled user is created. A disabled user account is created in the correct OU.
Email address is set to [email protected]
Proxy smtp addresses are set:
smtp:[email protected]
SMTP:[email protected]
smtp:[email protected]
Step 2
I then use ADMT and migrate sid history ect.
Step 3
New-MoveRequest –Identity [email protected] –Remote –Remotehostname exchange.oldcompany.local -RemoteCredential $RemoteCredentials –TargetDeliverydomain exchange.newcompany.local
This then fails with the error:
The target mail user newcompany.local/Office Users /mark test' doesn't have an SMTP address that matches
the target delivery domain 'exchange.newcompany.local'.
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidArgument: ([email protected]:MailboxOrMailUserIdParameter) [New-MoveReques
   t], RecipientTaskException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : [Server=EXCHANGE,RequestId=ec704dc8-bfb9-47c1-a1ec-cc6d8ef00484,TimeStamp=23/12/2014 1
   0:51:33] [FailureCategory=Cmdlet-RecipientTaskException] 5ABE3B29,Microsoft.Exchange.Management.RecipientTasks.New
MoveRequest
    + PSComputerName        : exchange.newcompany.local
Any ideas what I am missing.

Hi Walkersway,
As you have mentioned both the domains are "shared between forests", I would assume its added to the accepted domains as Internal Relay. Also you have 'Send Connector' Setup to relay out the email to the new forest.
"You configure the SMTP domain as an internal relay domain to make sure that email that's addressed to that domain is accepted by the Exchange organization. The connector configuration of your organization determines how messages are routed."
In your case "newcompany.local" should be present.
Try this:
New-MoveRequest –Identity [email protected] –Remote –Remotehostname exchange.oldcompany.local -RemoteCredential $RemoteCredentials –TargetDeliverydomain newcompany.local
The TargetDeliveryDomain parameter specifies the FQDN of the external email address
created in the source forest for the mail-enabled user when the move request is complete. This parameter is allowed only when performing remote moves with the
Remote or RemoteLegacy parameter.

IP address is not on the target's allowable access list.

when trying to deploy a lvlib or downloading code from a PC to a FP controller I get this error message "Access denied: This host computer's IP address is not on the target's allowable access list.". I have added the PC's IP address from within Max on the access list of the FP target (althoug default is full access to everyone). This did not help, I still get the same error message. Both systems are on the same IP segment.
sincerely

Hello,
Short of time right now, but I had the same problem: Here is a dump of my own notes on how I solved the pbolem (not necessary to reinstall software):
I attempted to update these data with Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) using the "FieldPoint Access Control" panel in MAX: I set "*" and Read/Write and pressed "Apply": MAX Claims it has updated the Access Rightsm, but we are still unable to Deploy the CFP from the Project Explorer.
SOLUTION:
Use WS_FTP-PRO (or any FTP Client) and access the IP Address of the FieldPoint using anonymous login.
Transfer the file ni-rt.ini from the root of c:\ on the Fieldpoint to the local PC and edit the settings as shown below.
FTP the file back to the Fieldpoint.
Set the following settings in "server.tcp.access" and "RTTarget.IPAccess":
server.tcp.access=""+*""
NOTE: Double Quotes here
RTTarget.IPAccess="+*"
NOTE: Single Quotes here
+* means every IP address can access.
It turned out that MAX had left the following (probably illegal) values in the fields:
"""" and ""

What target address does IPM select if the target IPSLA device is a multi-VRF CE?

What target address does IPM select if the target IPSLA device is a multi-VRF CE?
With IPM 4.2.1 it is not possible to select the correct target IP address when configuring a collector between two multi-VRF devices. It looks as if the primary management address for the target device is used in the collector configuration which, of course, belongs in a different VRF entirely.

One example, and there may be others, is the (free) DynDNS dynamic DNS service which publishes a domain name for the WAN port of your router which can then be resolved, like all other domain names, to the actual IP address of the WAn port of your router. This service provides a solution to the problem of having a proper domain name in cases where your public IP address changes over time. Unless you pay for a static IP address, virtually all ISPs change your public IP address over time.
So, you can register for a free DynDNS account at www.dyndns.com and that is how you come up with the User: and Password: information; use whatever User and Password you register at dyndns.com with.
The first part of the hostname you can define as you wish, subject only to someone else having used it previously, and the remaining parts of the domain name might be "dyndns.org" or one of the other domain names provided by the DynDNS service. So, you could publish, via DynDNS, the name of your public IP address as, for example, joehlam.dyndns.org however you might want something less descriptive or more vague.

The agent of the target is unreachable

Hi,
Iam new to grid control. In my grid control manager for one of the database instance it says the agent of the target is unreachable. What are the things, i have to look into? Do I have to start stop the agent or what?
Please answer my question.
Thanks,

How can I get the MAC address of my Apple TV?

How can I get the MAC address of my Apple TV? I currently do not have an HDMI device to connect it to, and the MAC is not listed on the box or the Apple TV itself.
(to answer the obvious, I am trying to pair it with an iPad, and I need to register the Apple TV for the network so the two can see each other)

As long as I know java doesn't have support to work on link-layer, only internet and transport layers. You may write simple native code. On windows, IP Helper functions, like SendARP allow you to pass an IP address and get the hardware address. You store the hardware address on your database/file and later, when that machine is off, you send a frame to the address you stored previous.

I haven't seen it on Linux, but if you need help let me know I'll check the Linux API's too.

Changing the IP Address manually for Laserjet 2100TN

Hi there--
We recently updated all the IP addresses for our LAN to facilitate the set-up of a VPN. Due to problems arising from DHCP address assignment in the past, we maintain addresses manually on the network. Unfortunately this has led to a problem where our old 2100TN is now unreachable on the ethernet network and we are unable to change its IP address; ordinarily this would not be an issue as the Macintosh computers on the network can still find it via AppleTalk, but the PCs are unable to locate it. I tried running HP's network set-up wizard from a PC connected to the network the printer's on and was unable to locate it even when I searched for the printer's hardware address; this was also the case when I connected directly to the printer with an ethernet cable.
Is there any other way to reconfigure the printer's network settings without potentially disrupting our entire network again? Help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried changing the printer's IP address manually from one of the Macs that can see it?
I include a copy of a reply on a related subject, from the person on this forum whose user name is IronBadger. Some of it may be helpful. Thank him if it helps.
I am a Mac consultant in Chicago, familiar with the 2100TN.

IronBadger's helpful and informed post begins here:
Since Apple removed AppleTalk from 10.6 it may be slightly more complicated to connect your 5100. But it is possible.
A lot depends on what your internet connection is. Do you use wired or wireless ethernet to connect to the internet? If you are using a wired connection your 5100 will need an IP address that matches your Macintosh. This will involve using the printers control panel to manually assign a TCP/IP address that is in the same range as your Macintosh. Wireless instructions below.
If the Mac has an IP address of 169.254.12.54 and subnet mask as 255.255.0.0, change the IP of the printer to 169.254.12.55, change the subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 and change the Gateway to match what is shown on t he Mac. If your Macintosh gets an IP address directly from your ISP (via DHCP) you may be required to obtain an additional address for the printer.
If you are using wireless (airport) to connect to the internet and just have the printer connected to the Macintosh with wired ethernet the information below should help you get connected.
I have copied a document below that discusses putting the printer on the same network as the Macintosh.
These are the instructions for manually configuring the IP Address on a Macintosh to match an AutoIP generated IP address on a printer.
When some HP LaserJet printers are connected to a network but there is not a DHCP or BOOTP server available it will generate an IP address in the AutoIP range of 169.254.x.x where the last two numbers are derived from the printer's MAC address.
To verify the printer's IP address print a configuration page.
If the printer configuration shows the IP in the Range of 169.254.X.X then the printer has typically self configured an IP address.
If the Macintosh is either not connected to the internet or is not using Built-in Ethernet for internet connectivity the IP address on the Macintosh can be configured to connect to the printer on a local network.
This can also be used to temporarily connect to a printer with no control panel and change its IP address.
Check the IP address on one of the computers on the local network:
1. Click on the Apple menu.
2. Select System Preferences.
3. Select the Network System Preference.
4. Click the TCP/IP tab, click the Configure IPv4 dropdown. and select “Manually.”
5. Change the IP address as mentioned in the following example.
• If the printer has an IP address of 169.254.12.54 and subnet mask as 255.255.0.0, change the IP of the computer to 169.254.12.55, change the subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 and change the Gateway to 0.0.0.0.
Connectivity to the printer can be confirmed by:
Opening the embedded web server using a browser by typing http://<ip address of printer>.
Setting up a print queue for the printer using Print & Fax System Preference.
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

Group Policy Infrastructure Failed : The target name is incorrect

Hi,
I am currently facing issues regarding Group Policy, users are unable to change the password.
When i run gpupdate /force on servers, the user policy and computer policy are successful but when i run the same on any client i receive error as per below,
" C:\Windows\system32>gpupdate /force

User policy could not be updated successfully. The following errors were encountered:
The processing of Group Policy failed. Windows attempted to read the file \\mydomain.com\SysVol\mydomain.com\Poli

p Policy settings may not be applied until this event is resolved. This issue may be transient and could
be caused by one or more of the following:
a) Name Resolution/Network Connectivity to the current domain controller.
b) File Replication Service Latency (a file created on another domain controller has not replicated to th

The first problem windows 7-8.1 got IP adress and connect he public HotSpot but cannot load login page or any other page. It does not work with it.
The second problem Wifi canrd/configure/Advandes (No network adress change function).Tested with the default windows driver and the ralink rt 3070 driver the same problem.On windows XP the same function the same driver works perfectly.
multiple users to have expressed interest in the problem But Microsoft not corrected the problem window7-8.1 10?

On windows XP or linux have a MAC adress Change function allow 00 mac adress and another normal mac adress range.On windows 8.1 all Mac changer program dont work.This 2,6,A,E on second adress are not vaild Mac adress. You simply can not use normal MAC
addresses on windows 8.1.When i connect the usb the Pc windows 8.1 recognizes the adapter but the default driver and the downloaded ralink driver the same problem.On windows xp the current driver works perfectly have (Local Mac Network Adress) funktion
and works with the 802.11b hot spot.I got the internet my PC and laptop too public HotSpots and another wifi HotSpots if wont work correctly i can not use neither the windows 7,8,8.1 or 10. Many users have expressed interest in the problem more forums.
The 3. problem im tested in virtualbox the windows 7 and 8.1 on 8.1 (on the blue wifi platform) not show correctly the signal strengh. On windows 7 show this correctly.The windows 7-8.1 Configure/advanced the advanced options on Ralink 3070 the default (windows
driver) somehow downgraded function is less than for Xp. Configure/advanced the advanced options (needs to be upgraded in the future) because it does not advance but rather regressed.
Today it is very common these wi-fi technology increasingly used (hotels,Public Hots Spots,Internet coffe,) growing free bublic wifi projects. The wifi funktions on windows need debugging and modernize.The quality of Wi-Fi is now the operating system
is now a thing order which is not good then the operating system is unusable.

Hi,
For changing the MAC address for Windows 7 is designed with some limitation, we cannot get over it. Thanks for your understanding.
Under Windows 7, the possible range of spoofed addresses for wireless adapters that can be set is limited. To be used by Windows 7, a spoofed MAC address should have 0 as a least significant bit (unicast) and 1 as a second least significant
bit (locally administered) in the second nibble. Thus possible values for the second nibble are limited to 2, 6, A and E.
In other words
MAC address: “XY-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX” “X” can be anything hexadecimal. The hexadecimal “Y”, written in binary format, is Y: “kmnp”, where “p” is the least significant bit;
p=0 --> unicast;
p=1 --> multicast;
n=0 --> globally assigned MAC;
n=1 --> locally administered;
So, actually MAC can be changed to any combination in which p=0 and n=1;
“Y” can be 2, 6, A or E.
So the possible MAC addresses in Windows 7 for wireless adapters:
X2-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
X6-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
XA-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
XE-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX
For the wifi hotspot issue, please check this blog to see if it can be helpful.
