EM and elastic IP onAmazon AMI

Hi All
iEverytime I stop and start the instance I have to reconfigure EM as the IP address and the hostname changes
Can this be resolved if I use elastic IP and have an IP address assoicated with my instance??
-Thanks

Elastic IP should solve your problem with the external address. It will not however fix the internal name resolution issues when stopping and starting the the instance (The instance will receive a new hostname and internal IP address after a stop and start). I have been changing the hostname of the instance and adding it to the /etc/hosts file under the localhost entry. You'll also need to update your tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files.

  • Performance counters from nginx, Varnish Cache and Elastic Search on Linux

    Hi, we would like to monitor our few Linux devices with SCOM 2012 R2. The OS counters are working well, but we are running on Linux the applications nginx, Varnish Cache and Elastic Search from which we need the performance counters as well. Are there any
    Management Packs available to read the data from these applications?
    Thank you very much for any hint.

    I'm not aware of any pre-built management packs for the applications you have listed.
    While you could build your own management packs using OpsMgr's management pack authoring capabilities, if your monitoring needs are fairly straightforward, you could create some shell scripts to retrieve the information you want (for both health and/or performance),
    and then use the Linux/UNIX script monitoring wizard in the OpsMgr console to create the monitors you want.  Creating the monitors/rules is super-easy once you have the shell scripts.

  • Liquid and Elastic Layout

    My first attempt at a liquid layout seems to work well in the
    sense it fits various browser sizes. I then discovered elastic
    layout and thought I should incorporate it for users to resize the
    text. Now I am having problems with text spilling all over the
    place. I am using % and ems. Should I just stick with the liquid
    layout or has anyone got any tips.
    Thanks in advance.

    this sort of thing gave me head aches for ages. i found the
    best way is to use a fix px size for your main wrapper/container.
    if you are using ap divs in the main wrapper div, set the positon
    as relative in your css code, i.e
    #wrapper
    position:relative;
    doing it this way, everything always takes up the same amount
    of pixels within your page, no matter what resolution you are
    viewing in.
    i, personally, would recomment a main wrapper size of about
    770px.
    i also have discovered that if you create your pages catering
    to every whim, of every user, you will surely go mad. i did.
    so create it to look good, as it is. if you think people may
    have to make text larger, than do it yourself in the design.

  • JHeadstart and JSTL - From the AMIS JHeadstart Cookbook

    Using JSTL in JHeadstart Applications - The Java Standard Tag Library (JSTL) provides a set of libraries of standard “custom tags” for inclusion in JSP-pages. They are standardized and an integral part of JSP 2.0 and the J2EE 1.3 specification, but can already be used with JSP 1.1 in J2EE 1.2 application servers such as Tomcat 4 and OC4J 9.0.3. Before too long, application servers will all provide support for the JSTL tags, without even having to include the associated libraries with the application. Besides, JSTL tags are more flexible and versatile as well as richer than the comparable Struts tags. It seems like a fine idea to embrace JSTL as soon as possible.
    You can find a description on how to include JSTL in your JHeadstart applications at: http://www.amis.nl/technology/Cookbook/Recipe%20for%20JSTL.htm.
    The Dutch Oracle partner AMIS has a 10-person JHeadstart team, currently involved in 4 JHeadstart-projects in The Netherlands. Their experiences and ideas are compiled in the AMIS JHeadstart Cookbook that is published on the internetsite (http://www.amis.nl) for other JHeadstart developers to share.
    I hope the recipes are of use to you.
    best regards,
    Lucas Jellems

    As a result of reorganizing (and re-providing) our website, some of the URLs stopped working. I apologize for any inconvencience.
    The JHeadstart Cookbook can now be found at: http://www.amis.nl/files/technology/Cookbook/AMISJHeadstartCookbook.htm and the Recipe on using JSTL is located http://www.amis.nl/files/technology/Cookbook/RecipeforJSTL.htm.
    Note that support for JSTL has been included in the JHeadstart 9.0.5.1 Release (so you do not need this recipe if you are using that release); basically, the JHeadstart team applied the recipe to the core JHeadstart set!
    Also note that the AMIS Demo Application (AMIS Library System) created along with our Cookbook is now shipped as part of JHeadstart 9.0.5.1 to demonstrate the use of Oracle Toplink. This will make it easier for you all to apply our recipes - since you have the ALS application already available when using JHeadstart 9.0.5.1.

  • Custom login module and SSO using 10.1.3.3

    We are using ADF 10.1.3.3 to build applications and recently a requirement from a customer was to use LDAP for authentication but use internal application tables for authorisation. So essentially the username and password will be in LDAP but all the roles definition are in the application. This is because the LDAP directory has tight controls on contents and is used enterprise wide.
    I created a proof of concept to address this requirement using the examples at
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/10g/jaassec/index.htm
    and also
    http://technology.amis.nl/blog/1462/create-a-webapplication-secured-with-custom-jaas-database-loginmodule-deploy-on-jdeveloper-1013-embedded-oc4j-stand-alone-oc4j-and-opmn-managed-oc4j-10g-as
    specifically using DBProcLoginModule to call a database package.
    The PL/SQL package I created used DBMS_LDAP to call an LDAP directory with the username and password to check authentication and then used internal application tables to get the authorisation details required.
    All this worked very well. I tested on both the embedded OC4J and also standalone OC4J.
    Then one of my peers said will this work with SSO? Specifically we use Oracle OID as we have SSO for Forms and Reports.
    My experience with SSO has been with Oracle OID and having all the user and role details stored within OID.
    So my issue now is can I integrate the custom login module approach I have used with SSO? My knowledge of SSO and OID is limited so I'm not sure how (or if) it would interact with a custom login module. Are the two mutually exclusive?
    Any guidance is appreciated.
    Regards,
    Adrian

    Hi,
    this question should be posted to the Oracle Application Server forum or the security forum. However, based on my findings and experience in this area, I don't think that SSO is integrated with custom LoginModules since the integration would need to be coded in the LoginModule.

  • Modify Elastic parameters

    I'm useing "Elastic" as a easer for a Move animation.  The elastic bounces a bit too much for my taste.  Is there a failry easy way to modify the amount of "bouncing" it does?  (I'm going to post this as another question as well, regarding the public variables)
    mxml CODE to define animation/effect:
     <fx:Declarations>
     <s:Move id="moveRight" target="
    {blackBox}"duration="
    1200"xTo="
    {changeX}"yTo="
    {changeY}"easer="
    {stretchIt}" />
     <s:Elastic id="stretchIt" />
      </fx:Declarations>
    AS CODE:
    // incrementor variable to keep track of where the infoBox is currently[Bindable] public var currMS:uint = 1;[
    Bindable] public var changeX:Number = 0;[
    Bindable] public var changeY:Number = 0; 
    // Keeps track of the current MileStone // main function including case statementspublic  
    function chooseMS(event:MouseEvent):void{
    switch(currMS){
    case 1: // to Milestone 2 
    //blackBox.move(50,130);currMS++;
    changeX = 50;
    changeY = 130;

    ow2.visible =
    true;wh2.visible =
    true; 
    moveRight.end();moveRight.play();
    break;
    ...  the rest of the switched cases are here...

    I extended Elastic and override the ease() function.
    To achieve the effect you see in the sample code, I changed the amplitude to 1 and the period to .6.

  • Amazon EC2 AMI -- can it be modified?

    Wondering if I'm allowed to modify and save the flash ami "adobe-flashmediaserver-useast/fms-4.0.1.8011-centos"?
    It'd be nice to not have to reinstall and configure everything every time I run an instance.

    I think your answer is referring to other images that people provide by AMI's, but it doesn't cover anyone who wants an image of FMS on an AMI, right?  the AMI provided by Adobe doesn't seem to allow it to be converted into a personal AMI.  (BTW, I might be completely off in my information... I'm a newbie and most of the links on EC2 information at Adobe are broken.)
    If I cannot save changes/modifications for my application, what use is it for the public?
    I would expect that I should be able to do the following.
    - Take the public image provided by Adobe for FMS
    - Modify by adding a database (or anything else) that might application needs
    - tweak other configuration data and store (mount S3 or EBS)
    - save / create as an AMI so I don't have to reconfigure every time I want to stop/restart an instance.
    Does anyone know if this can be done?  I'm suspecting that Adobe has only released this for developers to play in a sandbox and not for a serious application that people will use in production.  i actually hope that I'm wrong, but with Adobe not publishing information makes it look like people are only just playing with it.
    thanks,

  • ATG vs Elastic Path

    My company has asked me to compare ATG 10 vs Elastic Path on 2 criteria User Experience and Extendability/Integratibility, they really amount to the same thing for me. I'm looking for technie feedback there's other folks worrying about the markety, license etc.
    In typical big business fashion they've had months to ignore the decision and I have until the end of the week to give my technical evaluation.
    We want to integrate an online channel ecommerce tool into our current website that we sell via subscription. The tool has to fell like a part of our website down to the point of being a on-sale widget on our existing website, which means I need ultimate flexibility in the user experience.
    Here's my biggie and why I posted here, I need the tool to integrate with my existing "SOA" RESTful architecture for recommendations, catalog kind of entries, pricing and more importantly sign-in and authorization.
    Let me know your thoughts and questions.
    Thanks all!!
    If this is the wrong forum for this kind of discussion please refer me to the correct one and I'll cross post.

    Comparing ATG and Elastic Path isn't exactly comparing apples to apples. ATG was designed and built for retail e-commerce. Elastic Path was designed and built for digital e-commerce, therefore if you're interested in selling things like digital media and subscriptions, Elastic Path is the better choice. They already have an integrated subscription component and a roster of clients like Symantec who are leveraging their platform extensively for just this purpose. Not so with ATG. ATG is built upon proprietary J2EE code. Elastic Path is built on more open source technology and will give you the base so you can develop on it yourself.
    Next is implementation time. ATG has very few -if any- clients whose implementation took less than the average EP implementation. So if you need to get up and running quickly, the choice is clear. ATG, like it's new parent company, Oracle, is somewhat difficult to engage due to the amount of people involved with your implementation. Elastic Path is more customer-centric, young and eager to create a raving fan base. ATG delivers a top-down platform that comes with many bells and whistles you may not need as well as the need for training around the use of the platform. Elastic Path delivers a bottom-up platform that works to integrate your current infrastructure so that your business processes, workflows and other business functions stay intact.
    On your 2 points, User Experience and Extensibility: I mentioned that Elastic Path goes in smoothly into your infrastructure. That goes for usability and integration through leveraging published and open source technologies and standards.
    Hope this helps!

  • Making Effective Use of the Hybrid Cloud: Real-World Examples

    May 2015
    Explore
    The Buzz from Microsoft Ignite 2015
    NetApp was in full force at the recent Microsoft Ignite show in Chicago, and it was clear that NetApp's approach to hybrid cloud and Data Fabric resonated with the crowd. NetApp solutions such as NetApp Private Storage for Cloud are solving real customer problems.
    Hot topics at the NetApp booth included:
    OnCommand® Shift. A revolutionary technology that allows you to move virtual machines back and forth between VMware and Hyper-V environments in minutes.
    Azure Site Recovery to NetApp Private Storage. Replicate on-premises SAN-based applications to NPS for disaster recovery in the Azure cloud.

    Enterprises are increasingly turning to cloud to drive agility and closely align IT resources to business needs. New or short-term projects and unexpected spikes in demand can be satisfied quickly and elastically with cloud resources, spurring more creativity and productivity while reducing the waste associated with over- or under-provisioning.
    Figure 1) Cloud lets you closely align resources to demand.
    Source: NetApp, 2015
    While the benefits are attractive for many workloads, customer input suggests that even more can be achieved by moving beyond cloud silos and better managing data across cloud and on-premises infrastructure, with the ability to move data between clouds as needs and prices change. Hybrid cloud models are emerging where data can flow fluidly to the right location at the right time to optimize business outcomes while providing enhanced control and stewardship.
    These models fall into two general categories based on data location. In the first, data moves as needed between on-premises data centers and the cloud. In the second, data is located strategically near, but not in, the cloud.
    Let's look at what some customers are doing with hybrid cloud in the real world, their goals, and the outcomes.
    Data in the Cloud
    At NetApp, we see a variety of hybrid cloud deployments sharing data between on-premises data centers and the cloud, providing greater control and flexibility. These deployments utilize both cloud service providers (CSPs) and hyperscale public clouds such as Amazon Web Services (AWS).
    Use Case 1: Partners with Verizon for Software as a Service Colocation and integrated Disaster Recovery in the Cloud
    For financial services company BlackLine, availability, security, and compliance with financial standards is paramount. But with the company growing at 50% per year, and periodic throughput and capacity bursts of up to 20 times baseline, the company knew it couldn't sustain its business model with on-premises IT alone.
    Stringent requirements often lead to innovation. BlackLine deployed its private cloud infrastructure at a Verizon colocation facility. The Verizon location gives them a data center that is purpose-built for security and compliance. It enables the company to retain full control over sensitive data while delivering the network speed and reliability it needs. The colocation facility gives Blackline access to Verizon cloud services with maximum bandwidth and minimum latency. The company currently uses Verizon Cloud for disaster recovery and backup. Verizon cloud services are built on NetApp® technology, so they work seamlessly with BlackLine's existing NetApp storage.
    To learn more about BlackLine's hybrid cloud deployment, read the executive summary and technical case study, or watch this customer video.
    Use Case 2: Private, Nonprofit University Eliminates Tape with Cloud Integrated Storage
    A private university was just beginning its cloud initiative and wanted to eliminate tape—and offsite tape storage. The university had been using Data Domain as a backup target in its environment, but capacity and expense had become a significant issue, and it didn't provide a backup-to-cloud option.
    The director of Backup turned to a NetApp SteelStore cloud-integrated storage appliance to address the university's needs. A proof of concept showed that SteelStore™ was perfect. The on-site appliance has built-in disk capacity to store the most recent backups so that the majority of restores still happen locally. Data is also replicated to AWS, providing cheap and deep storage for long-term retention. SteelStore features deduplication, compression, and encryption, so it efficiently uses both storage capacity (both in the appliance and in the cloud) and network bandwidth. Encryption keys are managed on-premises, ensuring that data in the cloud is secure.
    The university is already adding a second SteelStore appliance to support another location, and—recognizing which way the wind is blowing—the director of Backup has become the director of Backup and Cloud.
    Use Case 3: Consumer Finance Company Chooses Cloud ONTAP to Move Data Back On-Premises
    A leading provider of online payment services needed a way to move data generated by customer applications running in AWS to its on-premises data warehouse. NetApp Cloud ONTAP® running in AWS proved to be the least expensive way to accomplish this.
    Cloud ONTAP provides the full suite of NetApp enterprise data management tools for use with Amazon Elastic Block Storage, including storage efficiency, replication, and integrated data protection. Cloud ONTAP makes it simple to efficiently replicate the data from AWS to NetApp FAS storage in the company's own data centers. The company can now use existing extract, transform and load (ETL) tools for its data warehouse and run analytics on data generated in AWS.
    Regular replication not only facilitates analytics, it also ensures that a copy of important data is stored on-premises, protecting data from possible cloud outages. Read the success story to learn more.
    Data Near the Cloud
    For many organizations, deploying data near the hyperscale public cloud is a great choice because they can retain physical control of their data while taking advantage of elastic cloud compute resources on an as-needed basis. This hybrid cloud architecture can deliver better IOPS performance than native public cloud storage services, enterprise-class data management, and flexible access to multiple public cloud providers without moving data. Read the recent white paper from the Enterprise Strategy Group, “NetApp Multi-cloud Private Storage: Take Charge of Your Cloud Data,” to learn more about this approach.
    Use Case 1: Municipality Opts for Hybrid Cloud with NetApp Private Storage for AWS
    The IT budgets of many local governments are stretched tight, making it difficult to keep up with the growing expectations of citizens. One small municipality found itself in this exact situation, with aging infrastructure and a data center that not only was nearing capacity, but was also located in a flood plain.
    Rather than continue to invest in its own data center infrastructure, the municipality chose a hybrid cloud using NetApp Private Storage (NPS) for AWS. Because NPS stores personal, identifiable information and data that's subject to strict privacy laws, the municipality needed to retain control of its data. NPS does just that, while opening the door to better citizen services, improving availability and data protection, and saving $250,000 in taxpayer dollars. Read the success story to find out more.
    Use Case 2: IT Consulting Firm Expands Business Model with NetApp Private Storage for Azure
    A Japanese IT consulting firm specializing in SAP recognized the hybrid cloud as a way to expand its service offerings and grow revenue. By choosing NetApp Private Storage for Microsoft Azure, the firm can now offer a cloud service with greater flexibility and control over data versus services that store data in the cloud.
    The new service is being rolled out first to support the development work of the firm's internal systems integration engineering teams, and will later provide SAP development and testing, and disaster recovery services for mid-market customers in financial services, retail, and pharmaceutical industries.
    Use Case 3: Financial Services Leader Partners with NetApp for Major Cloud Initiative
    In the heavily regulated financial services industry, the journey to cloud must be orchestrated to address security, data privacy, and compliance. A leading Australian company recognized that cloud would enable new business opportunities and convert capital expenditures to monthly operating costs. However, with nine million customers, the company must know exactly where its data is stored. Using native cloud storage is not an option for certain data, and regulations require that the company maintain a tertiary copy of data and retain the ability to restore data under any circumstances. The company also needed to vacate one of its disaster-recovery data centers by the end of 2014.
    To address these requirements, the company opted for NetApp Private Storage for Cloud. The firm placed NetApp storage systems in two separate locations: an Equinix cloud access facility and a Global Switch colocation facility both located in Sydney. This satisfies the requirement for three copies of critical data and allows them to take advantage of AWS EC2 compute instances as needed, with the option to use Microsoft Azure or IBM SoftLayer as an alternative to AWS without migrating data. For performance, the company extended its corporate network to the two facilities.
    The firm vacated the data center on schedule, a multimillion-dollar cost avoidance. Cloud services are being rolled out in three phases. In the first phase, NPS will provide disaster recovery for the company's 12,000 virtual desktops. In phase two, NPS will provide disaster recover for enterprise-wide applications. In the final phase, the company will move all enterprise applications to NPS and AWS. NPS gives the company a proven methodology for moving production workloads to the cloud, enabling it to offer new services faster. Because the on-premises storage is the same as the cloud storage, making application architecture changes will also be faster and easier than it would be with other options.

    I was looking for some real world "Best Practices" of deploying J2EEapplications
    into a Production Weblogic Environment.
    We are new at deploying applications to J2EE application servers and arecurrently
    debating 2 methods.
    1) Store all configuration (application as well as Domain configuration)in properties
    files and Use Ant to rebuild the domain everytime the application isdeployed.
    I am just a WLS engineer, not a customer, so my opinions have in some
    regards little relative weight. However I think you'll get more mileage out
    of the fact that once you have created your config.xml, checking it into src
    control, versioning it. I would imagine that application changes are more
    frequent than server/domain configuration so it seems a little heavy weight
    to regenerate the entire configuration everytime an application is
    deployed/redeployed. Either way you should check out the wlconfig ant task.
    Cheers

    2) Have a production domain built one time, configured as required andalways
    up and available, then use Ant to deploy only the J2EE application intothe existing,
    running production domain.
    I would be interested in hearing how people are doing this in theirproduction
    environments and any pros and cons of one way over the other.
    Thanks.

  • Cannot add a second Hard Drive to H8 1380t Pavilion HPE

    This is post number 2 with a different issue. The first issue has been resolved. Thanks!
    H8 1380t intel chip set and processor (i7 3820), AMI Bios (latest version).. Just purchased on 8-11-12.
    I am unable to add a second, same size, hard drive. I have tried changing from Raid to ACHI and used all available SATA ports with the same result. The system will not boot at all. A "no operating system" message is displayed. The primary drive is on sata 0, I placed the second drive on: sata 1,3,4, and 5 with the same results. I even swapped the primary drive to sata 1 and placed new drive on sata 0 and this did not work.
    Then I used the recovery disk set and restored the factory image to the new drive. When trying to boot, using all of the above strategies, the system kept booting to the clean install??
    I have also changed the boot order in Bios and disabled the new drive for booting but for some reason I cannot get the system to boot to the first drive that has windows installed. It keeps booting to the new HD with no operating system, hence- the non-system disk error message or it boots to the clean factory install.
    I have done this many times before on other systems including an HP Elite I purchased last year. Read the how to's on HP's site and followed instructions. The Bios on this system is very different from previous bios I have worked with. It has UEFI and Legacy categories with various options and boot orders as subcategories.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Few weeks back, one user decided to go to a hardware store to buy brackets himself and problem solved. You may want to follow his method.
    Regards.
