Equipment for building test lab

Hello all,
I'm looking for a little input on the two options I'm weighing for building my virtual test lab. If at all possible, I would rather not have my daily PC running my virtual lab, but I leave that option open. I'm thinking of purchasing a Dell PowerEdge 2950 II
(from ebay), installing Windows Server 2008 R2, installing VM VirtualBox so that I can set up an Active Directory environment to prepare me for the MCITP exams. This option would allow me to conserve the resources of my daily PC. If I were to use my daily
PC (I7 quad, 3GB RAM, 80GB SSD, and 1TB storage with only 200GB of free space) I would more than likely have increase RAM and buy another HDD to store the VMs. How much more trouble would it be to go the PowerEdge 2950 II route?
Thanks.

Hi,
We recommend that you review the Windows Catalog to identify servers that are qualified for use with Hyper-V. You can identify systems that support the x64 architecture and
Hyper-V by searching the Windows Server catalog. Personal advice is you’d better to buy the 2950III
it’s the newer product.

  • Licensing for a testing lab

    Hi,
    I spent a bit of time wondering where to post this but I hope this is the right place.
    I am putting together a plan to build a full lab test. We will be testing application configuration that run on several OS, including Windows servers.
    We will virtualise the all environment and this will probably consist of something around 30 different servers.
    I do not know what to do with licensing. I found
    similar post  where I imagine my next step would be to contact the licensing folks, but does anyone knows the best way to get in contact with them?
    Thank you

    Hi
    no. these will never be production machine. Their only for testing and troubleshooting purposes.
    They will be only confined to the closed lab environment.
    When looking at "Per Processor" licensing model one reads Note: Windows Server licensed under the Per Processor model requires CALs.
    Now, I dont know if this is the case for physical servers only or if the hardware is not relevant.
    What about MSDN?

  • Where To Download Base Configuration ISO(s) For Test Labs?

    Hi.
    Is there somewhere that I can download an ISO for the base configuration for the Test Labs outlined here:
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/1262.test-lab-guides.aspx#Base_Configuration_TLG
    Or is it presumed that the reader of the Test Lab Guides will configure each machine themselves?  If so, why is this not communicated clearly in the Test Lab guides?

    Hi,
    Test Lab Guides is to let you use less to learn a new technology, product or an entire multi-tier solution, TLG provides you with step-by-step instructions to create the Base Configuration test lab. You could build test labs based on other
    TLGs from Microsoft and published in the TechNet Wiki, perform TLG extensions, or create a test lab of your own design that can include Microsoft or non-Microsoft products.

  • Suggestions requested for Unit Testing process and build processes.

    Hi All,
    We are using WebLogic WorkShop 8.1 SP2 to build our WebApp. One thing I am trying
    to get together is a "Best Practises" list for aspects of WorkShop developement,
    particularly Unit Testing, Continous Build methodology, source control management
    etc.I have been through the "Best Practises Guide" that comes in WorkShop help,
    but it doesnt address these issues.This could help us all for future projects.
    1)Could anyone give pointers on how to perform Unit Testing using either JUnit/JUnitEE
    in the WorkShop realm, given that Controls cannot be accessed directly from PO
    Test classes.
    2)For a project of size say 5 developers ,does it make sense to have a nightly
    build using tools like CruiseControl?We use CVS for our source control and its
    working out pretty well, but given that we currently have no Unit Tests that can
    be run after the build and that can provide some reports on what broke/what didnt?
    I am sure we all would appreciate any suggestions and more questions on this topic.
    Thanks,
    Vik.

    Hi, Chris,
    can you perhaps explain your solution in greater detail. I am really curious to
    find a way to test controls.
    "Chris Pyrke" <[email protected]> wrote:
    >
    I have written (well it's a bit of a dirty hack really) something that
    lends itself
    to the name ControlTest (it unit tests controls). Its a blend of Junit
    and Cactus
    with some of the source of each brutalised a bit to get things to work
    (not much
    - it was a couple of hours work, when I was supposed to be doing something
    else).
    To write a control test you code something like...
    package com.liffe;
    import com.liffe.controlunit.ControlTestCase;
    import controls.Example;
    public class TestExample extends ControlTestCase
    private Example example = null;
    public void setUp() {
    example = (Example)getControl("example");
    public void testExample() {
    this.assertNotNull(example);
    String result = example.getData();
    assertEquals(result, "Happy as Larry");
    Other tasks required to set up a test are creating a web project with
    a jpf which
    needs some cut and paste code (14 lines) in its begin method and a jsp
    which is
    also cut and paste (5 lines). (ie create a standard web project and paste
    in 2
    pieces of code)
    In the web project you need to create a control (A) with an instance
    name of controlContainer.
    (if it's called something else the pasted in code will need changing
    to reflect)
    In this control you need to put an instance of TestContainerImpl and
    any controls
    that need testing.
    You then need to add a method to the control (A) that looks like…
    * @common:operation
    public String controlTestRun(String theSuiteClassName, boolean xsl)
    container.setControl("example", example);
    return container.controlTestRun(theSuiteClassName, xsl);
    You need to call container.setControl for each control being tested and
    the object
    'container' is the instance name of the TestContainerImpl that was put
    in.
    There are 4 jars (junit, cactus etc) that go in the library. You will
    also need
    the ControlUnitBase project (or maybe just it's jar).
    To use you call a URL like:
    http://localhost:7001/TestWeb/Controller.jpf?test=com.liffe.TestExample
    TestWeb is the name I gave to my web project - this will be different
    for each
    test project
    com.liffe.Example is the class above and will therefore be different
    for each
    test case.
    You can also call
    http://localhost:7001/TestWeb/Controller.jpf?test=com.liffe.TestExample&xsl=true
    (Note the extra &xsl=true) and the browser will (if it can) render it
    more prettily.
    This seems to do the job quite nicely, but there are several caveats
    I would hope
    someone from bea would be able to address before I start using it widely.
    1) To access the control you need to create it (eg as a subcontrol in
    the control
    (A) above.
    To get it into the test case you need to pass it round as an Object (can't
    return
    Control from a control operation). As it's being passed around among
    Java (POJO)
    classes I'm assuming that control remains in the control container context
    so
    this is OK. It seems to work and the Object is some form of proxy as
    any control
    seems to be reproxied before the control is invoked from the test case.
    2) If I'm testing controls called from a JPD then they either need to
    be in a
    control project (and my test cases called from a Web Project) which makes
    for
    a large increase in project numbers (we already have this and are trying
    to resist
    it) To avoid this - as a process project is a brain damaged web project
    I simply
    perform some brain surgery and augment the process project with some
    standard
    files found in any old web project. this means I can call the test JPF
    from a
    browser. This seems nasty, is there a better way?
    3) I would like to be able to deliver without the test code. At the worst
    the
    code can be in place but must be inacessible in a production environment.
    I don't
    know how best to do this - any suggestions (without creating lots of
    projects,
    or lots of manual effort)
    If anyone has read this far I would ask the question does this seem like
    the kind
    of thing that would be useful?
    Hopefully a future version of workshop will have something to enable
    unit testing
    and this hacking will be unnecessary.
    Could someone from BEA tell me if this is a dangerous way to do things?

    it was must create .zip and .cmd files on the drop location but it doesn't created this!!! what am i do?

    Hi Yuzarsiv,
    For your task, you can check whether you have CDPipelinePackaging.pubxml file in the
    Properties/PublishProfiles folder. You can also check your settings for your build definition to see if it fits for the task's requirement.
    If the problem still exist, please elaborate more details about your scenario and the reproduce steps for further investigation.

  • Do i have the right equipment for CCNA-Wireless?

    Hello community i am Adan Ramirez, an aspiring Cisco Tech, and I'm trying to get the right equipment for the ccna wireless.
    Here is my shopping list:
    1. 2 Cisco LWAP 1252
    3. NME-WLC6-K9 module card
    Here is what i already have at home:
    1. 1841(2x) - iOS 12.4(24)
    2. 2811(2x) - iOS 15.something something...
    3. 3560 - iOS 15.something something
    4. 2960 - iOS 15.something something 
    Problem:  I don't know if the NME needs the latest iOS, the one i saw on eBay says it's version 4.2 something something.  I don't have three thousand dollars to buy a brand new module with iOS 7.0 or $ 12,000 to buy a 5500 WLC.  I'm a broke college student T_T, help!
    and thanks!

    Hi,
    This is sufficient for your CCNA wireless studies. Probably I would add a VM which can run WCS.
    If you really need a WLC, you can buy 4400 series controller (can run upto 7.0.x) for ~200-300 USD. This is the version tested in CCIEv2.0 lab exam as well.
    This is the Cisco forum you should follow for this CCNA-Wireless studies

  • TEST LAB Guide: Demonstrating Certificate Key-based Renewal from Kurt Hudson updated 24 june 2013

    Hi all,
    We have been working since a full week building and rebuilding on different platforms this test lab and we have encountered a lot of different errors. (3 platforms are running)
    One of our test lab went nearly up to the last point but we have been unable to get rid of the error : access denied by the remote end point when we test the certificate web enrolment. This error seems well known but not the solution and the reason why.
    On two other similar Test labs we had errors with certificate invalid while asking the certificate Internet Server while it was the same as the one which was working above! This was strange as we used the clone of the certificate working on the previous
    lab.
    the other third error was below.....
    We are sure that some of you have been able to get rid of these kind of errors so as to have a final lab running properly to be able to build POC on client's premises.
    Kind regards

  • Best practice for the test environment  &  DBA plan Activities    Documents

    Dears,,
    In our company, we made sizing for hardware.
    we have Three environments ( Test/Development , Training , Production ).
    But, the test environment servers less than Production environment servers.
    My question is:
    How to make the best practice for the test environment?
    ( Is there any recommendations from Oracle related to this , any PDF files help me ............ )
    Also please , Can I have a detail document regarding the DBA plan activities?
    I appreciate your help and advise
    Thanks
    Edited by: user4520487 on Mar 3, 2009 11:08 PM

    Follow your build document for the same steps you used to build production.
    You should know where all your code is. You can use the deployment manager to export your configurations. Export customized files from MDS. Just follow the process again, and you will have a clean instance not containing production data.
    It only takes a lot of time if your client is lacking documentation or if you re not familiar with all the parts of the environment. What's 2-3 hours compared to all the issues you will run into if you copy databases or import/export schemas?

  • Best Practice - Hardware requirements for exchange test environment

    Hi Experts,
    I'm new to exchange and I want to have a test environment for learning, testing ,batches and updates.
    In our environment we have co-existence 2010 and 2013 and I need to have a close scenario on my test environment.
    I was thinking of having an isolated (not domain joined) high end workstation laptop with (quad core i7, 32GB RAM, 1T SSD) to implement the environment on it, but the management refused and replied "do it on one of the free servers within the live production
    environment at the Data Center"... !
    I'm afraid of doing so not to corrupt the production environment with any mistake by my configuration "I'm not that exchange expert who could revert back if something wrong happened".
    Is there a documented Microsoft recommendation on how to do it and where to do so to be able to send it to them ??
    OR/ Could someone help with the best practice on where to have my test environment and how to set it up??
    Many Thanks
    Mohamed Ibrahim

    I think this may be useful:
    It's their official test lab set up guide.
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/15392.test-lab-guide-install-exchange-server-2013.aspx
    Also, your spec should be fine as long as you run the VMs within their means.

  • Better UI for Unit Tests

    I've been doing a lot of unit tests lately.  Right now I'm working on a code converter Air app and I'm constantly creating unit tests for bugs I'm finding and running them, and debugging them when they don't work.  When I debug, it's easiest to isolate the runner to run only one test.  I know I can do that by editing the source file and typing in the test name in the core.run call.  However, I can't help by think a better UI is needed for doing this form for TestDriven Development. 
    Basically, what I think would be perfect, is to have the UI, not run the tests initially.  It should provide you with a list of tests with checkboxes.  Then give you the opportunity to select which ones you want to run, and then run them.  It should also have the ability to re-run a test.  I realize that for any code changes to take affect you would need to re-run the entire app, but a lot of times, I find myself running the same test over and over and stepping through the code with the debugger in order to figure out what's going on.  Then I eventually change the code.
    Also, the new UI should persist the last set of selected tests, and maybe have a way to store previous selections.  That would make it perfect for how I use it. 
    Does anyone agree or disagree with this?  Has someone done this already?
    BTW, the reason I'm using the stand alone runner and not the one in Flash Builder 4 is because I've run into some bugs with the FlexUnit shipped with Flash Builder 4 and there doesn't seem to be a way to get the latest FlexUnit 4.1 to work properly with Flash Builder 4.  There seems to be a way to do it with Flash Builder 4.5, but I don't have that version.
    Thanks,
    Mark

    Status Update - don't know if this is a bug, design flaw, install problem or my misunderstanding.
    I got it to work by first changing my Flex library to 4.5.0 - still didn't work with current
    app and update mxml files using "2.6" for their namespace versions. But I did at least
    get the popup error number 16815 - indicating an error in the update version namespace.
    By leaving my application namespace version at "2.6" and changing the update version to "2.5" ... bingo!
    I got my new update installed autiomatically.
    Is this how it's supposed to work - or are my runtimes mixed up?
    Will this work the same using the Flex 4.5.1 SDK? I'll find out shortly
    Hope this helps others.

  • Please recommend a tool for stress-testing ?

    Could anyone please recommend a (free) tool to do multi-threaded stress-test, on plain java classes ?
    In more detail: I'd like to do unit-test for some plain java methods (only mathematical calculations. No web interface, no swing).
    The emphasis is stress test: i need to launch multiple threads, all of them repeately invoking my method. Under these conditions, I need to report correctness (has the method yielded the expected return value), and statistics on response time.
    Any recommendations would be appreciated . Thanks !

    Besides j2se or jdom, any fast tool for it?What do you mean with "j2se", that's not a XML handling tool (it contains several, 'though).
    SAX sounds good for building object trees from XML, but there are several XML mapping libraries out there (try google).

  • Manual for building Pocket PC executable

    Hi,
    Where can I find the manual for building Pocket PC executables?    I am using LV 8.0 and is Build for PDA only for 7.0?
    Also, does any one have any suggestions on dumping on my executables onto an Arcom product?
    Thanks.
    hellolv

    You will need the LabVIEW PDA module for LabVIEW 8.0 in order to build PDA executables.  You will also need to license the runtime engine.  All of that information can be found here.  
    Hope that this helps,
