Failover to remote DC after disaster

I suspect this question has already been answered and apologize in advance for repetition.  Here is my current setup:
Site A:  Windows Server 2008 R2 running AD/DNS/DHCP.  Main domain controller resides here.
Site B:  Windows Server 2008 R2 running AD/DNS/DHCP.  Second domain controller at remote office.
The two sites are interconnected by a private, leased line running at around 10Mbps.  I have configured my sites, subnets, etc. and the two DCs are properly replicating.
What I am searching for is a document that will describe the actual procedures that I need to implement at Site B in the event Site A burns to the ground.  I am hunting for the actual procedure for failing-over to the DC at Site B in the event of complete
disaster.
Thanks

Maybe my blog will help a little with understanding how replication works across WANs, configuring site links, BASL (meshed sites vs non-meshed), the DC location process, GC placement (might want to make all DCs a GC), and much more.

You'll also need to understand how the client side resolver works, because that's a major component in the big picture because the DNS settings on the client and how the resolver service algorithm works. The client doesn't bounce back and forth between the
DNS entries in the NIC. It follows a certain algorithm no matter if it's a DC, server, workstation, Apple, Unix, Linux, Android, etc. The way they work is based on the industry standard RFCs that explain how they work.

  • 34410A DMM stays in Remote mode after session, using USB

    My Agilent 34410A DMM stays in remote mode after my code exits, or if I use MAX to communicate with it, but only if I'm communicating over USB.  If I use GPIB, the DMM returns to local mode when my code closes.  Apparently there is no LOCAL command for this instrument.  Is there any way, other than pressing the Local button, to put the instrument back in local mode using a USB interface?  I call hp34401a_close() to close the instrument.
    Thanks for any suggestions. 

    Hi JoeN,
    I think what is happening is that when using the GPIB interface you are sending a code to set the instrument back to Local. I took a look at the user's manual for the hp34401a and it seems to have a command to set this back: SYSTem:LOCal. 
    You can try this at the end of your USB interface program, and see if this is able to help you out. Otherwise I would run NI-SPY on the GPIB end and see exactly what command is being sent to disable remote control of the device.
    Let me know if this helps

  • Failover fails (turns off) after License Upgrade for 5520s.

    Hi-
    I recently did a license upgrade on an active/standy pair of 5520's (8.04) for a 2 to 50 SSL VPN upgrade. According to Cisco Document #70390 it should have been a no brainer...but it wasn't. According to the doc upgrading the activation key of the primary then doing a wr mem along with a physical shutdown causes the secondary to become active. But in my experience as soon as the new activation key was entered failover broke. This caused the secondary to remain inactive and I had to reboot both to get the network back up (of course only one could be active and so I took the secondary offline so I could upgrade it via serial). So I brought the secondary up (after activation key upgrade) and failover did not kickin. I did a sh failover on both machines and both said failover was off. I would do the failover command on the primary and secondary...nothing. It wasn't until I did a no failover active on the secondary that failover finally started to work properly.
    Anyone else have this experience? I have a ticket open with Cisco for the Doc # 70390 for clarification via my experiences. Any input would be appreciated on this. I was working on the assumption that I would have 2 to 3 minute outage as the primary rebooted but turned out to be a longer outage than anticipated and higher ups were pissed...
    Thxs. --Rob.

    Hi Rob,
    Firstly - thanks for posting all your findings with this issue, otherwise I would have followed the Cisco doc too!
    I just have a couple of queries though... after failover is disabled and the ASA's remain in their current state, rather than use the console port to perform the license upgrade, would the "standby" ASA still be assigned the 'standby' IP address, even though failover is disabled? For example, the active had the inside ip address 1.1.1.1 and the standby was assigned 1.1.1.2 on its inside interface. Would this configuration state be the same when failvoer was disabled?
    The reason for asking, is whether the upgrade could be performed remotely (whether this is a sensible idea is another thing!). So could I connect to the "standby" unit by IP to upgrade the license?
    The second query is regarding the reboot of both units (as opposed to shutting down). Following the license upgrade on both units, could you just reboot both units ("standby" then "active"), and when they both come back up, enable failover? I would assume the previous "active" unit would again become active and failover restored??
    Thanks,
    Tony

  • Not able to access javaFx charts from a remote system after using ext. jars

    We are facing following issue. Any recommendations to resolve these issues are highly appreciated.
    1. Not able to access javaFx charts from a remote system (More details at the end of mail).This is high priority requirement as we have a web based reporting application and users access it over our static IP address.
    We are using Java Fx charts in our web application where we built jnlp and jar files in a separate fx project and kept jar and jnlp’s inside our web project.
    It is working fine when we did not used any external jar files and remotely it is accessible. But when we used external jars our project is running on local
    system but remotely it is not working due to some path settings. We modified jnlp files where entry of jar files exists and modified the jar path as per our
    project. But still it did not work.
    Before using external jars inside our java fx project my jnlp looks like:

  • Apple TV3 Dissappears in Apple's Remote App after a While

    I have an ATV3 with latest f/w connected via Ethernet to my LAN. I also have (2) iPads (3. Gen. and mini-retina), both on latest f/w as well. They connect to my LAN through 2.4 or 5GHz band (I run various SSIDs). The network connections themselves are very robust.
    I have installed the Apple Remote App (latest) on both iPads.
    Here is the issue.: after a while (1 or a few days) the ATV no longer shows up in the Remote app on either iPad. A restart of the ATV resolves this issue till the connection disappears again.
    I also run iTunes on a PC on the same network.
    This library never disappears from the Remote apps.
    Any idea what is wrong and importantly how to fix it?
    TIA! 

    Most likely the ATV is going to sleep or shutting down the Wi-Fi to reduce power consumption.
    My ATV is connected via Ethernet and is always visible via the Remote app.

  • Mobile Sync not update the client or remote store  after first sync

    Subject: OracleLite 9i does not update the client or remote store during synchronization with a Windows CE device
    After the first synchronization, neither the client or remote stores are updated on future synchronization when the publication is created with the fast refresh option. If the publication is created with the complete refresh option, the server will update the client, but the client cannot update the server after the first synchronization. That is once the database (.odb) file is downloaded from the server on the first connect, no updates to either the client, or server are performed for a publication created with the fast refresh option, and only the client store is updated when the publication is created with the complete refresh option. These result are obtained whether I use MSync via Microsoft Active Sync, or I use the Embedded VC++ program I wrote to initiate the synchronization from the Windows CE device.
    I am 99% sure the JAVA code that I am programmatically creating the publications with, and the Embedded VC++ code for initiating the synchronization from the Windows CE device are correct. Both programs adhere exactly to the example code provided either in the documentation, or in the sample code shipped with OracleLite 9i Release 5.0.1. My conclusion is that there is a problem with Oracles replication programs either on the Windows CE, or Server side, or both. This conclusion on my part is strongly supported by the fact that MSync operating with Microsoft Active Sync behaves exactly the same as my code that initiates the replication from the Windows CE device. Also, by looking through the discussion forum, I gather that others are experiencing similar, if not identical, replication problems.
    To support my contention that it is a Oracle problem, I have prepared a simplified version of the Embedded VC++ code to initiate the synchronization for the CE device, and the JAVA code for creating the publication. This code duplicates the problem and is easy to follow. You may download the zip file containing code via the link https://Yggdrasill.cfr.msstate.edu:4443/SyncProblem.htm or the link http://Yggdrasill.cfr.msstate.edu:7778/SyncProblem.htm. This zip contains the Embedded VC++ project files, that will compile and run correctly on a PocketPC with an Arm processor, or the PocketPC x86 emulator when you have the required include files, and libraries in the path. It also includes the JAVA code I used to create the publication. If you extend the VC++ code to run on additional platforms be sure to add the compile flag (directive) /D SQL_NOUNICODEMAP , and the library files olod2040.lib, and ocapi.lib in the library box from Project settings. On my system the paths to the Arm, and x86 libraries are C:\ORALITE501\MOBILE\SDK\WINCE\POCKET_PC\Arm\LIB, and C:\ORALITE501\MOBILE\SDK\WINCE\POCKET_PC\X86EM\LIB, respectively
    I am using a NT 4.0 SP6a server with Database 9i Release 2 Enterprise edition, and OracleLite 9i Mobile Server Release 5.0.1. The Windows CE test device is an iPac running Pocket PC, connected to a system running Windows 2000 Professional SP2, and Microsoft Active Sync 3.1.
    Please review this problem documentation, and tell me what I am doing wrong, or point me to a location where I can get a patch to fix the problem.

    Hi,
    I'm also facing a similar problem. I'm using Mobile server as stand alone config with Oracle 8i as server database. After the first download, the data updated at the server is not getting downloaded to client(PDA).
    How did u overcome this problem? Is there any work around?
    I want to do synch using both serial and dial up.
    Thanks in advance,

  • Empty folders on remote server after synchronization

    I am trying to set up a working environment for a very large web site and to get to the point of my post...
    Whenever I try and synchronize my FTP with my local copy, I am selecting "Delete remote files not on local drive."
    While the files are deleted on the remote server as they should be, it leaves behind empty directories all over the place where these files used to be.
    The site is large enough that it takes over an hour to ftp it up to my testing server and I am doing a large amount of cleanup and deleting un-necessary files / directories all over the site. If I am going to have to manually track down every empty directory and remove them one by one, it is going to be faster to completely delete my FTP space and re-upload the site every single time I make some revisions which is a bit ridiclulous.
    Isn't deleting the remote directories if I have deleted them locally considered part of SYNCHRONIZATION?
    The site is so large that I can go grab a coffee while the synchronization is taking place but it is not quite as bad as re-uploading the entire local copy of the site every time I make significant changes to the site structure.
    I guess this is related to why Dreamweaver throws "_notes" folders all over my site CONSTANTLY even when I have design notes turned off for my sites?
    I have so many complaints about Dreamweaver and the fact that it pretty much has not improved much at all since Adobe took it over from Macromedia I don't know where to begin. I guess this would be a good place to start LOL!

    As much as I hate replying to myself...
    I was reading through this thread
    http://digg.com/apple/OSXLeopard_Another_Serious_BUG_Unable_to_Browse_SMB_WindowsShares
    I tried many of the suggestions one at a time. Unfortunately, I tried way too many suggestions to know if/which any single one was the "fix". The last three configuration changes I made were to disable IPV6, enable SMB sharing, then disable AFP sharing. After each of these, I did "sudo killall Finder" from a terminal.
    Now it works for me as desired.
    I hope this helps someone else.

  • Users cannot log into Remote Desktop after 3/11/2015 update!

    I have a simple network where users can log into a Windows SBS 2008 server with Remote Desktop to access various applications.  This worked quite smoothly until this morning, after the updates of last evening. (3/11/2015)
    When users tried to log into the Remote Desktop this morning their credentials were rejected, as if their username and/or password were incorrect.  Even I (as the administrator) could not log in remotely.  Finally I connected a monitor and keyboard
    directly to the server and was able to log in without an issue.  After logging in directly I was able to connect through remote desktop.
    This method worked for my other users as well - after I logged them in directly they were able to use remote desktop no problem.
    The trouble is that I have a couple dozen users, and this is an issue that should not be occurring.  What happened in the last update to cause remote desktop to reject users credentials?  Why does it only work after the user logs in directly? 
    And most importantly, how do I fix this?
    A few notes:
    Simply browsing for files on the server also asks for the user's name and password, and this works as well.  This is only a remote desktop issue.
    I have already checked to make sure the domain was correct.  It was.
    I have already checked to make sure the usernames and passwords were correct.  They were.
    I have already checked to make sure this was not a unique issue for a single (or limited number) of users.  This issue effected
    all users all the network.
    Thank you very much for your help,
    Dustin

    I'm curious here...  If the server is rebooted, does it put the RDS users back into a "credentials failed" situation?  If so, could you please have them log in with credentials:
    domain.local\username    (I suspect they may be currently using domain\username)
    and see if that fixes the RDS problem without having to first log into the server directly.
     The ".local" may be ".lan" or ".somethingelse" depending on how you initially configured your domain, but the default for SBS 2008 is ".local"
    Merv Porter
    =========================
    That's a good question - the server will auto-reboot this evening and I'll test again in the morning. 
    You are correct that we've been using domain\username.  I tried domain.local\username (which is the way we've set up), and that did not work either.
    I'll let you know how things turn out tomorrow morning.  I don't want to mess with my users anymore today. :P

  • Logic Remote issues after updating to iOS 8, problem solved!

    Has anyone else has been experiencing connectivity issues with Logic Remote after updating to iOS 8?
    After updating to iOS 8 I could no longer connect so I sent a feedback report to Apple and got a response that cleared up my problem immediately:
    Navigate to the following directory on your desktop system running GarageBand:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/Data/Library/Preferences/
    You can quickly navigate there using the “Go” menu in Finder -> Go To Folder (shift-command-G), then copy this path:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.garageband10/Data/Library/Preferences/
    In the Preferences folder should be a file named "com.apple.garageband10.cs”.
    Make sure GarageBand is not running and delete the  "com.apple.garageband10.cs” file.
    Relaunch GarageBand and see if you should now be able to connect.
    The same can be done for Logic by navigating to:
    ~/Library/Preferences/
    And deleting "com.apple.logic.pro.cs" and restarting Logic.
    Note that doing this will fix Logic Remote connectivity issues (and possibly other problems with latency and mixer functionality)  but will also delete any other Controller settings that you've configured with Logic, if you happen to be using another controller of some sort.

    Note: Removing the CS (Controller Surface) plist is a part of the basic troubleshooting procedures for Logic Pro (and GB)
    See section #8

  • Win svr 2008 r2 ent - user can not log into remote desktop after installing march's 2015 important updates

    we installed march's 2015 important updates onto all of our servers.  three of our servers are not allowing RDP.  
    these servers have windows server 2008 r2 enterprise sp1  installed.  
    we enter in the username and password in the rdp dialog box and click on ok.  the rdp dialog box comes back for us to enter in the username and password.  
    we do have kb3046049 and kb3002657 installed.  
    is there a v2 of kb 3002657 for windows server 2008 r2 enterprise?  
    on one of the servers
    1. I disabled rdp
    2. stop and start the following services 
    remote desktop configuration
    remote desktop services
    remote desktop services usermode port redirector 
    remote procedure call
    3. enabled rdp
    4. added the users allowed to rdp into  server
    This allowed us to RDP into that box with the username and password.  
    But the other two servers the steps performed above did not work.  
    Any solutions for Win Svr 2008 R2  enter sp1?

  • Does the Apple Radio Remote work after the update?

    Anyone try it after the update? I know it didn't work before...
    And a side question, since there doesn't seem to be anywhere to ask...are the support forums (especially logging in) constantly crashing Safari (Mac version, desktop) for you?

    The Apple Radio Remote I am assuming you mean the one linked below
    http://www.apple.com/ipod/accessories.html
    It would be the accessory attached to a ipod.
    IF this is the accessory your referring too. Then please note that the compatible devices that it works with is only ipods and not the iphone. Check the link below for yourself.
    http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=B9E C42BD&nplm=MA070G/C
    If you wish to have this accessory available for the iphone then leave feedback below
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    And no logging into the forums is quirky but it does not affect my safari especially not crashing.

  • Failover cluster fails validation after a single node restart

    I had a lab environment setup that works great, passes validation, can do live migrations without issue but as soon as I restarted one of the nodes, the then still live node became the only node able to access the storage backend. What's weird is that the restarted
    node can still access the CSV storage and run VMs off of it, but the validation report is unable to list the actual disks.
    My Cluster consists of 2 nodes. I have an iSCSI backed shared storage server and I can see that both of my nodes
    are connected to the iSCSI targets successfully, but the node I first restarted no longer lists any disks/volumes in disk management and the once available MPIO menus are disabled in the iSCSI control panel. I also tried to restart the second node after the
    first node came back but although the first node was up and running and had VMs on it, restarting the second node brought the entire cluster down. I see event IDs 1177, 1573, and 1069 appear in the Cluster Events log. When the second node came back up, the
    cluster came back with it, but not the storage. Both nodes seem to display similar behavior in that they cannot access the storage backend. Now the storage is inaccessible by both nodes. I was able to get both nodes connected to the storage backend by
    going to the iscsicpl and disconnecting all current connections to the iSCSI backend and adding them back. Doing the test again after bringing the storage back up resulted in the same behavior and this time redoing the iSCSI connections is not helping.
    I think the issue here is that the first node I restarted is unable to see any disks/volumes from the storage backend only after joining the cluster and doing a restart. Before joining the cluster I did reboots on both nodes and both were able to connect to
    the iSCSI backend without issue. It wasn't until after joining the cluster that node 1 became unable to access the storage backend after reboots. The validation report fails with "No disks were found on which to perform cluster validation tests. To correct
    this, review the following possible causes: ..." although none of the suggestions seem applicable and the validation report was successful right before the restart of the node.
    Does anyone have suggestions on how to further troubleshoot or resolve this issue?
    I am using Hyper-V Server 2012 R2 on both nodes and they are joined to the same domain.

    Hi,
    I don’t found the similar issue, please your storage compatible with server 2012R2, Update Network Card Drivers and firmware on both the Nodes, temporarily disable your AV
    soft and firewall install the Recommended hotfixes and updates for Windows Server 2012 R2-based failover clusters update.

  • Hyper-V Failover Cluster Networking Configuration After Install

    Hello All,
                Is it possible to install hyper-v and failover or in other words create a hyper-v failover cluster and then configure the networking part of the solution later?  As I am coming into
    terms with the networking part of it, wanted to do it later after the install.  Is it possible?
    And from later configuration, I am trying to say, creation of NIC Team, Virtual NICs, VLAN tagging, etc.

    Hi,
    Failover cluster deployment requires network connectivity between cluster nodes. You can't create a cluster without properly configured TCP\IP on cluster nodes.

  • Remote fails after several days

    I'm running ZFD 3.2, on a Netware 5.1 (sp5) box with eDir 85.27c.
    When I
    import a workstation, it will work perfectly for a few days, but then
    it
    fails to respond to Remote Control. I can still do Chat, and pinging
    the
    agent gives perfect success. When I do attempt to connect it gives
    the
    message:
    The Remote management agent was unable to locate the workstation in
    NDS.
    I can delete the workstation and re-import it, and it will work again,
    but
    fail after a few days time. I applied all the ZenWorks support packs
    to the
    clients and the server, and I am running the latest snap-ins for
    ConsoleOne.
    This server is the master of the replica.
    Any tips would be appreciated. I went through everything on TID
    10013987
    and none of it has fixed the problem. Thanks.
