DMS 5.4 Lab (Demo) Non-Standard Install

OBJECTIVE:
Install 5.4 on lab equipment available.
CURRENT STATUS:
I have the software for v.5.4 (iso images, with demo licenses, below are exact versions),
DMM-5.3.0.244.iso
DMS-UPG-LATEST-5.4.0.736.iso
IDEAL & UNLIKELY SOLUTION:
Install ESXi and then create a VM, then install to the VM, or use something like this.
POTENTIAL COMPROMISE:
I have been advised to try and "Trick" the installer program, and install directly to the bare metal.
QUESTIONS:
Can anyone here advise me on what to try first, best options, and last ditch effort?
Could I potentially get this to install on bare-metal, non-standard extra hardware (I've got 2 boxes sitting around, both are PRIME-NCS-APL-K9)
Any additional advise or reference URL/Docs you might offer?

Thank you Marco.
I'm a bit curious though if anyone has gotten the OVA converted/imported to Hyper-V or Xen?  (wouldn't that be lucky?).  As it is, I've got the OVA DMM VM, and a demo license of ESXi and working on getting this up and running now in lab now, to see if it still works with InformaCast alerts.

  • Non-standard install problem

    I'm trying to upgrade to the newest Flash player for Opera on Windows XP but I can't get it to install properly. I think the problem is that Opera (9.4) is installed to a non-standard folder on my machine (.../Opera7) rather than the usual .../Opera folder and I'd rather not have to change it. Any ideas on how I can install to the correct location? Any help would be appreciated.

    If that didnt work try this below:
    1) Open up the Command Prompt as an Administrator (Go to All Programs > Accessories and Right Click on Command Prompt and then choose Run as administrator)
    2) Type cd C:\Windows\SysWOW64
    3) Type regsvr32 vbscript.dll (This registers VB Script with your computer.)
    4) Now install iTunes as you normally would by double clicking on the install program and wait for iTunes to finish installing.
    5) Type regsvr32 \u vbscript.dll (This unregisters VB Script with your computer.)
    THIS ONE COMES WITH A WARNING
    TRY BOTH OF THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK
    AND some thing below to consider about this second step, not the first post
    To enabled, VB Script a scripting language that has been responsible for more trojan and worms floating around the internet than any other on the face of this earth. All in order to install one of the earths most popular programs to get our daily audio fix. So we have to disable security measures built in to protect the operating system from malicious code and leave our selves wide open.This would be the equivalent to Microsoft telling Mac People to disable buffer overflow protection in order to install Microsoft Office for the Mac.

  • Kvirc from SVN {NON-Standard-Install-Method} and Overcoming 2 Problems

    Hello, everyone.  Firefishe here.
    There are certain programs I like to compile from source code, outside of the normal arch hierarchy of PKGBUILD's.  One such program is the Internet Relay Chat client, "KVIRC".
    I've been using kvirc for years, and I like to keep it as up-to-date as possible, just like Arch!
    This is why I like to use the svn version, so I can update it quickly and uniformly.  I like--as a user--to contribute back to the project.  (I had one of my bug reports translated into an instant commit by the main project author, himself, once.  That made me feel quite good, so it really does help to do a few things like this now and again.
    Okay, on to the main topic.
    I'm writing this to alleviate a nagging problem that had been plaguing me for months in 2013.  Qt5 just wasn't compiling kvirc very well back then.  The fact is, the echoing strains of "qt5 is broken in kvirc" from the #kvirc channel on Freenode, resounded soundly throughout that entire year.  Qt5 was still a bit buggy, and not all the libraries (32bit or 64bit) were quite finished.
    Move forward to (now) July, 2014!  I have now compiled kvirc successfully on my 64bit (with 32bit multilib installation) laptop, and kvirc is purring away with a current svn build of kvirc.
    However, I ran into some issues, which I would like to share with you, below:
    I usually go about compiling kvirc from svn like this: (I usually start from my /home/userNameHere directory.)
    {arch@homedir}$ svn co https://svn.kvirc.de/svn/trunk/kvirc
    {arch@homedir}$ cd kvirc
    {arch@homedir}$ mkdir release
    {arch@homedir}$ cd release
    {arch@homedir}$ ccmake ..
    [At this point, the 'ccmake ..' command invokes cmake-gui, an ncurses-like graphical user interface, with a list of menu items pertaining to various libraries and flags that can be set.  cmake-gui makes selecting these flags and libraries quite easy, and also gives a clear indication of what directories may not have been found (which will be discussed a bit later.) ]
    Press the 'C' Letter Key -- (This runs the Configure Routine.  I sometimes do this twice, just to be sure it configured properly. I've had it miss a few times for unknown reasons.)
    Press the 'G' Letter Key -- This 'Generates' Cmake files.
    After the 'G' command, the system takes you back to the command prompt.
    {arch@homedir}$ make ***WAIT A WHILE, COULD TAKE A BIT LONGER ON SLOWER SYSTEMS!***
    {arch@homedir}$ sudo make install  (Or 'su -' to root, then do 'make install'; your preference.  I prefer using sudo.)
    {arch@homedir}$ sudo ldconfig  (Or 'ldconfig' if still at root prompt #)
    {arch@homedir}$ kvirc (or 'kvirc &' if you don't want the terminal window to hold onto the process.)
    Kvirc should run at this point, but I ran into a couple of problems.  Once during the ccmake configuration (which prevented ccmake from configuring), and at the end, which prevented kvirc from running.)
    The first had to do with two (2) packages that were not installed.  The were, as follows:
    qt5-webkit
    qt5-multimedia
    I installed those files, then did the  'ccmake ..' portion.   That ran fine, as well as the 'make' and 'sudo make install' and 'sudo ldconfig' parts.
    What didn't work was when I tried to run kvirc.  I got the following error:
    {arch@homedirc}$ kvirc
    kvirc: error while loading shared libraries: libkvilib.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    I remember, back when kvirc was wanting Qt4, and not Qt5, that if I didn't do the first 'sudo ldconfig' command before trying to run kvirc, it would give something similar.  However, since this compile run was wanting Qt5, and not qt4, I was puzzled.
    Well, it turned out to be something quite simple.  This is a non-standard process of software installation on a new(er) arch system.  The 'uname -r' command on my system yields the following:  3.15.4-1-ARCH .  It is no surprise, then, that at this late date, Qt5 is complete (or at least more complete) than back in 2013 when I had the original problems, and had to select the 'WANTS-QT4' section during the 'ccmake ..' command.
    **** Building kvirc this way places the kvirc binary in /usr/local/bin, and a certain 'libkvilib.so.4' library in /usr/local/lib ****.
    This is to be expected from a standard source compile on most gnu/linux systems; and this *is* a standard compile, even though we're using the 'ccmake ..' command to do the preliminary configuration and cmakefile generation.)
    The problem is, is that Arch is looking for libkvilib.so.4 in /usr/lib, and not /usr/local/lib.  So the following was, for me, the solution that got everything squared away:
    I made a symlink in /usr/lib to /usr/local/lib/libkvilib.so.4, like this:
    {arch@homedir}$ cd /usr/lib
    {arch@homedir}$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libkvilib.so.4 libkvilib.so.4
    After doing this, I did:
    {arch@homedir}$ kvirc (or kvirc &)
    And It Ran Beautifully! :-)
    I hope you've enjoyed this HOWTO.  I know most people may just want to use the 4.2.x version of kvirc, currently residing safely in the standard repositories.  However, if you're like me, and want a bit of bleeding edge, Qt5 goodness with kvirc, I might suggest doing the above!
    I can be reached at firefishe At gmail DOT com if anyone has any questions.

    Hi Dareen,
    Looking at the information shared and also the error message ( Update Failed,Updates could not be applied.Please contact your Administrator if you wish to apply updates on your machine. Updates have been suppressed by the Administrator.If the problems persist, contact customer support for further assistance" ),
    It suggests that the updates were to be managed by the Admin only. Lets try the following step and suggest if this was able to resolve the concern that you have or not.
    1) Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\AAMUpdaterInventory\1.0 and you will find a .dat file ( AdobeUpdaterAdminPrefs.dat).
    2) Please open the file in question and you will find a line item : <Suppressed>1</Suppressed> .
    3) Please change the Value from 1 to 0 and save the file back in the same location.
    post the above step, try the installation once again and share the end result please.
    Cheers,

  • Can't find CC when install to non-standard location

    When I installed Sun Studio Express February 2007 to a non-standard location via the installer program, upon start of the IDE, it says it can't find the CC program. I have set my path properly.
    I fixed this problem by just mounting: mount -F lofs /export/sunstudio/SUNWspro /opt/SUNWspro and restarting the IDE (after updating my paths to /opt/SUNWspro/bin of course)

    This is weird, I have Sun Studio EA installed in /opt/12 and it has no problem locating compilers... The only difference is that I didn't use installer, I downloaded a .tar file.

  • Accessing websites running on non-standard ports or with self-signed ssl certs?

    I've got some sites running using self-signed ssl's that also run on non-standard ports. Firefox home doesn't seem to open these pages it just sits there with the spinner loading and a blank screen...
    Anyone else noticed this?

    If the ASA is using a certificate issued by a CA that is in the client's trusted root CA store, then the ASA identity certificate does not need to be imported by the client.
    That's why it's generally recommend to go the route of using a well-know public CA as they are alreay included in most modern browsers and thus the client doesn't need to know how to import certificates etc.
    If you are using a local CA that is not in the client's trusted root CA store to issue your ASA identity certificate or self-signing certificates on the ASA then you need to take additional steps at the client.
    In the first case, you would import the root CA certificate in the trusted root CA store of the client. After that, any certificates it has issued (i.e the ASA's identity certificate) would automatically be trusted by the client.
    In the second case, the ASA's identity certificate itself would have be installed on the client since it (the ASA) is essentially acting as it's own root CA. I usually install them in my client's Trusted Root CA store but I guess that's technically not required, as long as the client knows to trust that certificate.

  • Version 8 blocks http on non standard ports i.e. 8080

    Version 7 handled http on both port 8080,8081 and 8082 but only text is passed after version 8 update. Is there a way to re-enable http on non standard ports? If you save the text file to the desktop and load it from there the html is processed correctly? Is there a directive besides "html" that could be place on the web pages to force html rendering on the odd ports. Version 8 works with port 4135 from Jefferson labs speed test.

  • How to create Object Links For non standard SAP Objects?

    Hi all,
             I need to create an object link in cvo1n for a non standard SAP object (inspection characteristics) . we have two ways to do this
    1. Create a screen for the rquirement by taking the standard screens as reference.
    2. Implement badi document_obj.
    I need a step by step process to perform both the steps. Sample codes will be helpful.
    One more thing is that i need a link in the standard screens of inspection characteristics also. How to get a two way link both in cv01n and in the standard inspection char screen.

    hi
    Customizing for the Do cument Management , you must maintain the key fields for the SAP objects that you want to link to document info records, by choosing Control Data ® Maintain key fields.
    Process
    Program two screens for the following module pools for the SAP object that is to be linked additionally:
    u2013 SAPLCV00
    u2013 SAPLCVIN
    The process logic must be according to that of screen 0204 in program SAPLCV00 and must not be changed.
    Create the function module OBJECT_CHECK_XXXX (XXXX = name of the SAP object).
    If this object can be classified, this function module already exists in the standard system. Otherwise, copy the existing function module OBJECT_CHECK_EQUI (linking of equipment) and change it to suit the new object.
    also you can attach the document to PRT also. but it will not show you in dms. This type of attachment is only from otherside.

  • Non-standard Oracle Installation

    Hi in our env there are few Oracle Installations are non-standards, without Ora-Inventory, that was created by just tar-untar of existing oracle home and that's it.......what would be effect in the future for that kind of env, like for applying CPUs or any other maintenance

    I use this method only.It's not a problem to copy oracle home.Make sure you don't loose your local inventory i.e inventory directory (most probably in your oracle home directory) .And do one more thing copy OraInventory directory from the server from where you have copy your home and place it anywhere in this server.And make an entry oraInst.loc pointing to that OraInventory directory.Then there won't be any problem.
    Basically how opatch works:-
    1. Search Central inv. to see if Oracle home is registered or not.
    2. If yes go to that path taken from central inv. look for all stuff there itself and install.

  • I thought FCP X 10.1.1 could handle non-standard frame sizes?

    Yesterday I was demonstrating FCP X 10.1.1 to a friend.
    As time was limited I imported the nearest piece of video I could find, which happened to be part of an H.264  video tutorial with a frame size of  960 x 600 and a frame rate of 30fps.
    I hit the E key to send it to the timeline only to receive the old "not recognised" error message as shown below.
    I thought I may have created the project incorrectly but when I repeated with a new project I double-checked that I had selected "Set based on first video clip".
    I thought that FCP X 10.1.1 would automatically recognise a non-standard frame size and simply create an appropriate project.
    I was too busy doing the demo to investigate at the time but later I discovered that there was no problem creating a 960 x 600 custom project manually.
    It's a pity FCPX is not clever enough to do it automatically  ............  or can it?

    Thanks Tom, you clarified it .......  or at least something clicked in my brain.
    I was trying to set "Custom" when I created the new project.
    I didn't know, or had forgotten, that in the "error" window I could select "Custom".
    All is now well and FCP X 10.1.1 is pretty clever after all!
    There is one weird thing I'd like to mention.
    When I clicked on "Custom" the 960 x 600  frame dimensions appeared but the  frame rate was listed as 23.98p as shown in the screenshot below.
    So what's wrong with that?
    Well the clip is 30p  and I naturally thought I was going to end up with a project with an incorrect frame rate.
    Now here's the funny thing  .........  when I selected the project and viewed it in the Inspector it was the correct 30p
    So why was I given that worrying piece of misinformation.

  • List NON-standard SAP objects

    How can I list all NON-Standard objects on a SAP Oracle database?
    Reason: I believe I have objects that were created with SAP naming conventions that were not part of the installed SAP modules.
    My understanding is that there are SAP documentation tables like DOKIL that I could use to join against current objects.

    I can confirm the table OIURV_DOC_DTL_BK is a standard table in ERP, it seems to be part of IS-OIL.
    Let me wrap up the information to check, whether an object is standard or not:
    - If it is in the ABAP dictionary (table TADIR), then use SE11 to find the creator and package information
    - If it is not in the ABAP dictionary then the object was most likely created directly on the database. You can then query dba_objects for creation date (created). You will have to talk to the folks with direct database access about it. Generally objects should never be manipulated directly on the database.
    Cheers Michael

  • In FireFox 9, loading secure web pages running on non-standard ports works just fine. In FireFox 10, those same pages do not load and a "The connection was reset" message is displayed.

    How can this be fixed so functionality returns as per FF9 and below?
    This occurs on any secured website running on a non-standard port, with FF10.

    < X-Post from https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/917315#answer-315144 >
    I don't think this is restricted to Firefox. I've noted this behaviour with IE9, Firefox 10.0.2, Opera Mobile (on my phone) and Chrome(latest version) with my Linksys E3000 router (I access it from https://<IP>) and my 3ware RAID card management suite, 3DM2 (I access it from https://localhost:888 ).
    Notably, the only thing amiss that I've been able to see in the certificates (I'm no expert) is that the one from Linksys has issue and expiry dates in 1969 and 1970 respectively. However, I don't think this is the cause since 3DM2 has proper looking issue dates and has the identical problem.
    Coincidentally, I noticed this happening after a fresh reinstall of Windows 7 x64 with virtually nothing installed on it (FF, Office 2007), so I don't think it's something wrong with the other software on the machine.

  • GC not discovering DB listener as it's in a non standard location

    Hi all,
    I have installed a management agent on one of my servers and have launched GC. I can see the host and a number of targets, but I cannot see the database on that server, or the databaser listener. This I think is because the listener.ora file for it is in a non standard place. it is in the specified TNS_ADMIN directory. How do I tell Grid Control to look in there for the listener rather than the usual Oracle home location?
    This is Grid Contorl 10.2.0.3, trying to discover a 10.2.0.3 database on a Solaris Sparc server.
    Many thanks,
    Paula

    Hi,
    I can't find a screen labelled Agents within Grid Control. I can see Hosts, Databases, Application Servers, Web Applications, Services, Systems, Groups, All Targets.
    The tabs above that read Home, Targets, Deployments, Alertsm Compliance, Jobs, and Reports.
    I have tried to discover the database listener I need but it comes back with none, and does not give me an option to add one manually on that screen.
    Can you please point me in the right direction?
    Thank you very much,
    Paula

  • How To: Use FCPX to create iPhone Portrait Movies (and other non-standard formats)

    Goal: Use Final Cut Pro X 10.0.7 to produce a 640x1136 video (iPhone 5 Portrait). You can use these same steps to produce virtually any dimensions you want. My example is for the iPhone 5, in Portrait mode.
    This information is available in various places, but you have to realy work to find it, so I thought I'd post a step-by-step guide here.
    By the way, you might think you could just create a FCPX Project with your desired dimensions, but you can't (at least with 10.0.7). Projects only support certainly dimensions. But there are other ways, as the rest of this post describes:
    1) Create an initial movie with the desired dimensions, to serve as a template. We'll call it "Template.mov". The only thing that matters is the dimensions. It can be in any codec FCPX understands, and virtually any length.
    I'm using a 2 second video shot on my iPhone for the template. You could also create a blank image (.png, whatever) with the proper dimensions, copy and paste it into a new Quick Time Pro 7 window, and Export it using custom settings. There's lots of different ways to do this.
    2) Drop Template.mov into a FCPX event.
    3) Select Template.mov in the Event browser, and select File->Duplicate (or command-D). You probably could just edit "Template.mov", but it's a good idea to save it for reuse.
    3) Change the name of the copied video. I'm using "iPhone Video".
    4) Right-click "iPhone Video" and select "Open in Timeline".
    5) If you made the Template video from a still image, you may need to change the duration (ctrl+D). You don't have to make it very long, but it needs to be longer than 1 frame. A few seconds should be enough.
    6) Use this timeline like you'd use a project's timeline. Drop in new content, trim, transition, etc. There may be things you can't do in it, but I haven't found any yet. I'm guessing Chapters may not work, but I haven't tried them.
    7) Note that when you drop new content into the timeline, it may size funny. That's because the default setting for "Spacial Conform" is "Fit". Simply select the newly-dropped content, and in the Video settings inspector, scroll down to "Spacial Conform" and change it. You could use "Fill", which fills the frame vertically, or "None", which uses the source's original height. Then crop/transform/whatever to get what you want.
    8) When you're ready to render, select "iPhone Video" in the Event browser, then use the "Share" button. You want to use the "Export File" destination, which you may have to add. Pick your codec, and let 'er rip.
    9) When the rendering is done, you should have a video in your desired dimensions.
    That's all there is to it. Hope this helps someone.
    Dan
    PS: Don't ask why someone would want to create an iPod video using FCPX. The point is that you may need to create a video with non-standard  dimensions at some point in time, and this is how to do it.
    PPS: Most of this information came from http://library.creativecow.net/articles/payton_t/FCPX_Custom-Resolution-Timeline s/video-tutorial. I just wrote it down, while I tried to do what the video suggested.

    Instructions for using QuickTime Pro 7 to create a template video with unusual dimensions.
    I suspect that anyone savy enough to be using FCPX has probably already figured out how to do this, either using my technique or another, so there probably isn't a real need for me to post this. For that matter, I may be the only person who cares about this at all. However, while I was trying to learn how to do all of this, I would have really appreciated having all the information in one place, so here goes.
    If you want to create a video with unusual dimensions (like 640x1136) using my steps above, you'll need a "template" video first. Here's an easy way to create one, using any image editor, and QuickTime Pro 7.
    1) Open QuickTime Pro 7 (QTP for short).
    2) From the menu, select File->New Player. You'll get a window with just the bottom portion of the player, i.e. the playback controls.
    3) Using an image editor, create a still image in the desired dimensions. You can use any image editor. It doesn't matter what the image contains (although it will end up showing as a thumbnail in FCPX).
    4) Copy the image to the clipboard.
    5) Switch back to QTP, and paste the image into the new player. Don't worry that there isn't a video window showing - just paste it into the window that has only playback controls. As soon as you do, the video window appears.
    6) Advance to the end of the movie (the short, 1-frame movie), then hold down Command+V (paste) and keep holding it down to paste multiple images in. Watch the time advance. You could, if you want, just hold down Command+V until you get the length you want. But if you want a long video, there's an easier way:
    7) When you reach a few seconds (or whatever duration your patience allows), select all (Command+A) and copy (Command+C). Then hold down Command+V to keep pasting in the longer clips. Wait until you reach a longer duration, then repeat the process. So, for example, 1 second, then 10 seconds, then 1 minute, then 10 minutes, then 1 hour. Or whatever you want.
    8) Save the video however you want. I usually use File->Export with H.264, with Quality set to "Least". Just make sure you don't let it change the dimensions. If you resized the player window, depending on which "save" or "export" method you've chosen, it might default to the resized dimensions, so double check that to make sure.
    That's it. You now have a template video you can use with my previous post(s).
