Flash file location in 6500 Core switch

Hi ,
Please guide me what is location of flash file in 6500 Series switch and how can we take back of IOS image for 6500 series.
Thank you

You're welcome.
People seldom backup the actual IOS image binary file since it is usually just as easy to pull a new copy from cisco.com.
The more useful file is the running-config. You can most easily get a one time copy of that by just setting terminal length to 0 ("term len 0"), turning on logging on your shell tool and then typing "show run". The log file will now have a local copy of your running-config. You can also copy it via the cli using tftp, ftp, scp etc. transport methods.
Many open source and commercial products also allow you to automate that whole process for many devices. RANCID, Kiwi CatTools, SolarWinds NCM, Cisco Prime LMS, etc. all do that (and much more).
Please rate helpful posts and mark your question as answered when it is.

Enabling Netflow on Production 6500 Core switch

Hi All,
I am looking for a little expert advise regarding Cisco Netflow. For monitoring I need to enable Netflow feature on 6500 core switch or 6500 load balancer with CSM module installed, but I am just concern about the CPU hits on the devices. we are not using any dynamic routing protocols. Can someone please advise how will it effect on the local resources when using Netflow? Is it fine if I enable this feature on these devices in production?
Thanks in advance,

Hi Mudassar,
Enabling netflow will not have a major impact on CPU or memory but you will want to keep a close eye on the switches TCAM utilisation. Features like netflow, TCP intercept and WCCP can use resources from “NetFlow TCAM Table”.
Use the "show mls netflow table-contention detailed" command to monitor TCAM utilisation.

I want to use the SSD from my new 12 core in my old 4 core but the 4 core doesn't see the SSD. Flashing file with "?". What do I need to do?

I spend a lot of time in a location far from home. I bought a new MacPro 12 core to use at home and took the old 4 core to the alternate location. I figured I could just take my hard drives back and forth instead of schlepping a whole MacPro. The 12 core has a SSD drive to boot from and a 2 TB storage drive for photo files. It came with Mountain Lion (10.8.2). At the new location the 4 core does not find the SSD and won't boot. Grey screen. If I take the SSD out I can boot with the 2TB drive but it boots in OSX 10.6.8. I can get by with that workaround, but I'd like to use the SSD if I can because PhotoShop runs a lot faster from it.
The SSD does not show up in Finder or Disk Utility when the computer is booted up with the 2TB drive.
What do I need to do?

...or that the installed image on the SSD came from a model-specific version of Mac OS X that shipped with that Mac, and does not have the drivers to support a different model Macintosh, not even an older Mac Pro.
You can install a new Mac OS X image, such as "Full Retail" 10.6.3 off a DVD in under an hour, and have it up to date and ready for production in only a little more time.
Or you could clone 10.6.8 onto the SSD (from the other Hard Drive that does boot) in about a quarter hour.

APs unable to receive IP address from DHCP (core 6500 series switch)

Dear Friends,
a week ago I had stable wireless network APs were getting IPS from 6500 series switch (DHCP) but unfortunately some WISM got rebooted and now APs are unable to receive IP address from Core 6500 DHCP, to cater this issue I have another DHCP server configured on windows 2008 i created another subnet and and put APs in that vlan now all APs are are successfully receiving IPS from windows DHCP server I don't know why APs are not able to receive IPs from core 6500 series DHCP.
please advice
Thanks

File location of Application Switcher

I'm looking for the location of the Application Switcher. I recently purchased a Microsoft mouse for my iBook. The scroll wheel button preference does not have a direct link to the Switcher, however, it does have an "open item" setting. I would like to point this setting to the Application Switcher.
I've looked in the System Library>Core Services folder, and also did a Spotlight search, each with no success.
Appreciate if someone can point the way.
Thanks

Thanks for the response.
Yes, it is configurable, however, as I mentioned, I need to point it to the switcher. I realize I can use the command/tab, however, I'd rather use the Mouse.
My Logitech mouse has an option for the Wheel Button to "switch application". MS does not. If I can find the location of the application switcher app. I can at least point to it.
Other than this need, the mouse on the iBook serves my needs. Considered USB overdrive, however, do not want to spend the $$$ just for the Wheel Button.

2 locations, 2 core switch stacks, fibre in between, equal cost load balancing between?

Hi,
We've recently inherited a job that another company was doing, so we've had our hand slightly forced on the kit and overall topology involved, however that's all fine and we can make it work.
This is a collapsed core topology with core and access switches, split over 3 blocks (fibre connections between), one core switch/stack is in block B and the other in block C, with access switches throughout.
They require all access switches to be connected to the Core in B and the Core in C, and then obviously cross connects between the two cores.
They state:
"Core switches shall be linked with 2x 1Gbps links bonded into a standard compliant Etherchannel"
"Uplinks between access and core switches shall be non-blocking - for example equal cost load balancing at layer 3, or layer 2 bonded multi-chassis Etherchannel"
The specced kit for the core are 3850's, in an ideal world I'd use VSS (Virtual Switch System) to achieve the above statements beyond repute; but this is only supported on 4500/6500 and Nexus platforms.
Do we think a cross stack etherchannel (LACP between both core switch stacks) would satisfy the above statements? Or the statements may just be badly worded...
I look forward to your thoughts and views on this! Thanks!

As the others have noted, the 3850s, to stack, are restricted to the length of the longest stack cables.
As you have noted, VSS physical units would allow the "logical" unit to be far apart.
For a "small" VSS core, the 4500-X might be an idea unit. (Other than cost, the 4500 would be a better choice for a core device.)
Something to watch for, or understand, when running VSS, Etherchannel doesn't load balance as it does on a single chassis or stack. VSS will avoid using the VSL cross link unless it must.
As many access switches, today, support basic L3 routing, you might also determine whether a L3 edge would be a suitable alternative choice. It would allow retention of the 3850s and can offer some advantages even over VSS. (Where VSS is very nice [as too the Nexus] supporting servers with Etherchannels.)

Lightroom workflow - HD setup and file locations

Has anyone waxed poetic about catalog and image file locations or workflow? How do you go about conceptualizing a drive and file storage strategy for a Lightroom workflow? Of course this will vary depending on the equipment you have, but I'd appreciate and links to stories that run through various configuration setups and the possible workflows and locations for catalog, master files and backup locations. Here's my setup:
- Mac Pro (3GHz 8 Core) with two 750GB internal drives (one for OS X) the other for Apps and content storage); two empty drive bays for now.
- PowerBook G4 1.2GHz w/160GB internal drive that I use on location, or as an in-lab Flash card reader if the Addonics external, Firewire card reader attached to the Mac Pro fails to see a camera card (as it sometimes does). This second in-lab scenario adds some complexity to the workflow, although the machines are linked with Cat 6, gigabit Ethernet.
- OWC Mercury Elite Pro with two 750GB drives configured as a mirrored, software RAID on Firewire 800 for backups.
Should I set up the Lightroom catalog on the internal "content" drive and store all the actual image files there, reserving the RAID drive strictly for backups? This would mean that the RAID would only be used a redundant backup system (which is fine and what I originally planned) since it's probably slower than the single, internal drive. The problem is this: remembering to back up the files from the main content drive to the software RAID drive.
Or should I be using the slower, mirrored RAID for main content (master image file and catalog) storage.

John, Andrew and others:
Thanks for your thoughts. Do you also use Lightroom to manage all "working" versions of Photoshop files (multiple version - edits - of files in progress)?
During my first couple of projects, I ended up creating a "Working" folder for each project outside the Nikon folder-oriented hierarchy of the original image files. I did this only out of habit rather than workflow planning, but ended up with a second workflow outside of Lightroom.
Does anyone think it's better to simply save these files (with or without the "working" folders) into the same folder hierarchy with all the Nikon originals? I'm just trying to figure out how to organize the workflow for the in-progress files.
Again, before Lightroom, I managed these files in separate folders on the hard drive, and usually moved them to a new location for final storage. Clearly, that won't work for Lightroom, but what does? I'm getting into a bit of trouble trying to manage file (and working folder) locations as I try to transition to a new, database-driven workflow.

Error while using Image component to display a child flash file

Hi
I'm using Xcelsius version 4.5. I used the "Image Component" to import a child flash file(.swf) into the parent flash file.
I gave the path "D:\246024\Loblaw\Dashboard Docs\New Folder\trend input.swf" in the general tab of the image component.
After exporting the .xlf into a flash file , it works fine in the system in which i created it. If i open the same flash file in any other system the parent file opens but the child flash file imported through the image component is not displayed.
Please help me out in solving this issue
Thanks
Anitha

yes, you will face the same problem as its still looking for the path of the swf.
you need to have the SWF on specific location which is accessable by the Parent SWF
usually web page or something which is accessable for all.
good luck

Need advice on retrieving Bitlocker Key or External Key File Location

My Windows 8.1 PC includes a system drive and data drives. All the drivers were encrypted using Bitlocker with the data drives set for autounlock.
I recently decrypted the system drive (without decrypting the data drives, <very bad>) and reinstalled the OS, after which my data drives required the Bitlocker recovery key to unlock.
However, I had "backed up" the recovery keys to my Microsoft account but now I cannot find them.
I have tried to use the "manage-bde" command at the console to obtain the Recovery Keys but I am only getting the Numerical Password ID and the External Key File Name. Can anyone provide advice on how I can retrieve the recovery passwords
or the External Key File location?
Before I had set the data drives to autounlock I had used a recovery password to unlock the drives. However, now when I try to unlock the data drives only the recovery key (which I don't have) is being requested not the password.
Thanks.

Hi HMcBean,
How did you back up the BitLocker recovery key? To local computer, flash driver or Microsoft account?
If you backed up the recovery key to a Microsoft account, please refer to the following article to find it.

Scheduling a report with output (excel) to file location

Able to schedule a webi report and output format to excel and destination to file location.
Report is running at scheduled time/interval and writing the output excel file onto file location on BO server. The issue is, its creating the file extension in uppercase (ex: testfile.XLS). Is there a way to control the file extension to be lowercase.
Also tried to force "testfile.xls" (with extension in lowercase) in the instance title of report scheduler but still creating extension with uppercase (ex: testfile.XLS).
Any pointers ??
Environment - BO XIR3.1

Hi,
I believe you can do this by switching the view to Excel and turning off the use job server defaults. You can then enter the name and extension as well as the destination folder.

Synching Issues with Self-Paced Learning and Embedded Flash Files

Hi Everyone,
I'm having some issues with my files not properly synching or displaying when Self-Paced Learning is active.
Here is my set-up:
Captivate 5
5 separate Captivate files combined using the Aggregator
Each Captivate file is about 15 slides
Each slide contains an audio file (for closed-captioning) and a single SWF file - the content is all created with Flash and then inserted into Captivate using Insert > Animation
Each SWF file is back 1/10 of a second from the beginning of the Cap timeline (otherwise there are rewind issues when the user selects the slide they are currently viewing from the ToC)
Each embedded SWF has the beginning and ending fade built into it; Captivate is not doing any fading
Synch to Project is selected for each embedded SWF (although it doesn't seem to work all the time)
Self-Paced Learning is active, as well as, Enable Navigation
It is not being loaded to an LMS or using any built-in Captivate quiz features. These are instead custom built AS3 Flash files that are embedded.
Windows 7, 4GB RAM, 1GB Video Card, High-end Processor, etc... a beast.
The Issue:
When the user opens the course, views it for a while and then closes it and returns it will display the first slide of the course for a moment before jumping to the bookmarked slide. This slight timing misstep causes the bookmarked slide to get out of synch. It will sometimes not display the bookmarked slide at all or it will cut-off a small bit from the end of the slide (even with Synch to Project active). It sometimes works fine but randomly will break. The course is set to 100% preload and nothing is being loaded from an external location. It seems to work fine until Self-Paced Learning is activated.
I don't think this is a common development approach for Captivate but it has been very successful with some clients. Has anyone encounted similar issues or does anyone have some suggestions that might resolve this problem?
Thanks!
Greg

It's been mentioned many times on this forum that nesting Captivate SWFs inside other Captivate SWFs gives rise to all kinds of strange issues. Captivate was not designed to work this way. If you choose to do it, and you encounter issues (as you have done) there's usually NOT a lot you can do. There are just too many ways the SWFs can get into bun fights over which one does what.
I suggest you rethink your approach to avoid nesting.

The 2 year old fix for changing temp files is no longer valid, I need to change the temp file location in the latest firefox.

In 3.6.3 I'm unable to find the parent cache to change where the temp files are located. I have an SSD drive, and I need to get the temp file off, and onto my platter drive. I have read the previous fix of about:config and changing the parent cache location, but it no longer seems to be there. I'm unable to locate anything relating to my SSD drive location in about:config.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/533.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.375.70 Safari/533.4

Unfortunately, it appears that what I wrote about not being able to find the location IN about:config of the cache to change it from my C: drive to a different location, was mildly misunderstood that I didn't know how to get into about:config.
The location of browser.cache.disk.parent_directory does not currently exist in 3.6.3. I'm assuming it's under a different location. Also using the simple string of "cache" lists several options, but none of them appear to be where firefox is currently dumping the temp files onto my C:
I merely need to know how to switch the temp file location from 1 drive, to another. Not downloads, the temp file.
