Force XServe to Boot From CD From Command-Line

Hi,
I've decided to erase and install a new copy of 10.5 server from my server cd. However, my KVM switch takes longer to connect than the white screen is shown at bootup. Is there a way i can use the command line to force the xserve to boot from the cd i've inserted?
Thanks

Or a DVD boot can be requested from the front panel of Xserve.
Short version:
"With the power off, hold in the system identifier button while you press the on/standby button.
Continue to hold in the system identifier button until the top row of blue lights blinks sequentially."
"Release the system identifier button, and then press it again repeatedly to turn on the light that corresponds to your chosen startup method:"
When (only) the rightmost LED on the lower of the two horizontal rows of LEDs is lit, the optical drive is selected for bootstrap.
When you get to (just) that LED, press and hold the button until the entire top row of LEDs is lit, then release the button, and off you go.

Hi,
how do I get LR2 to "load from device" via command line?
I've got XP to load LR2 when a "camera" (and only a camera) is connected but really cool would be if LR2 would also import the pictures.

Running class files from the windows command line...

Hello Everyone,
My instructor showed us a way to run class files from the windows command line. However every time I try to run the class file from the command line using a command like: java CruiseHelper.class
I get an error that states "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: CruiseHelper/class"

Hello Everyone,

to run the class file from the command line using a
command like: java CruiseHelper.class
I get an error that states "Exception in thread

So,

Correction: it seems that Applescripts and some similar scripts can be called from the command line using "osascript scriptname". I don't speak automator but you might like to try it. osascript seems to come with severe limitations though, for instance it doesn't allow user interaction such as dialogue boxes.

Unable to run reports from the unix command line

hi
all of a sudden i am unable to run reports ( on App server 10g) either from the unix scripts or from the unix command line. But i can run them from the forms.
Any one have any idead about this.
Thank you

thanks all for replying
i have set the env variables for the session and it worked. Looks like i have to set the oracle_home and ld_library_path every time ( opening a new putty session) i call sqlldr.
But in a whole i am trying to run sql loader from the forms. Right now we have Oracle app server 10g which forms 10g version. As oracle app server 10g didnt come with sqlldr, we are copied the sqlldr of database on to app server with different home. after this we can run sqlldr ( on app server ) from unix scripts but not from Forms. Then we opened a qurey with oracle about app server 10g not commig with sqlldr and its remedy . But they said that they dont have specific remedy for that and suggested the same what we did.
So we came up with java package which does the same funtion as host command and trying to run sqlldr which is on the database( ie replacing the host command in the forms with the database funtion). By using that funtion i am able to run the sqlldr from sql plus but not from forms. I couldnt easily debug it as i wont through any error messages.
Any one have any idea of this ...
Thank you

Launched from a windows command line

If my labview app is run remotely from a windows command line, is there any way to tell programmatically from a variable somewhere that it was launched by another app and not by the operator manually launching the app itself ?

Hello id,
If you have control over the application that's invoking your exe through the command line, I'd suggest using a simple custom argument that is passed to the application per this KnowledgeBase:
KnowledgeBase 1CNFGHFI: Passing Command Line Arguments to a LabVIEW Executable
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/17C3AD70493CE0208625666A00763364
You would then use the App.Args property (Application:Command Line Arguments Property) to check for your "this launched from the command line via this other application" argument, whatever it might be. I would suggest that you should only need to check for *any* arguments, if they're present then you know it's been launched via the command line. The argument could just be the name of the calling application. If you're unable to insert arguments via the invoking application, you could also use a one-line batch file that's installed with the target EXE to do the same thing (you'd run the batch file instead of the executable from the invoking application).
Determining where an application was invoked from without sending it that information explicitly is another, trickier problem- there are plenty of discussions on stackexchange and elsewhere detailing possible solutions, but if the invoked application (your EXE) isn't owned by the command prompt process I'm not sure it's possible. There are a few mentions of checking environment variables that the command prompt usually sets to see if they've been configured, but I have no experience with this.
Best Regards,
Tom L.

How can I import eex files into Applications EUL from the unix command line

How can I import *.eex and *.dis files into an Applications EUL from the unix command line?
Thanks

Hi
The simple answer is you either have to use the client tool DIS51ADM to import files using the command line (Discoverer Admin is a windows only client tool), or the Java command line which needs a browser.
In theory if you have a browser running on your Unix box you may be able to use the Java command line to make this work.

Inputting non-visual characters from the shell (command line)

is it possible to capture user input from the command line (using System.in or any other available method) that contains characters that are not printing characters and are not legal in a java.lang.String? i.e. is it possible to write a program that recognizes the arrows and CTRL, SHIFT, and ALT keys as input without using graphical (Swing or AWT) classes in the program?

No. Shift, ALT and CTRL are key modifiers. Perhaps JCurses would allow you to check for these modifiers as Swing does.

How to simulate up/down network packet loss, BW, delay from script or command line?

Before ipfw used to cover network QoS parameters simulation from the command line.
Currently, from Yosemite on, PF seems more limited, and only port redirection/restriction seems to be possible.
Network Link Conditioner can do it, but, afaik, not from command line (or script). Which certainly limits a lot for automated testing or other automated operations.
Options?

Thanks for this - I also have an OKI (a C5500) and this is a Godsend as I would struggle to replace it.
A couple of comments:
Points 6 and 7 should be switched - MacPorts wouldn't install until XCode was installed. You my also want to expand the XCode instructions to say that the App Store link downloads the installer and that you need to go into Launchpad and run it to fully install XCode.
The gsed installation also popped up and asked me to install Java (through Software Update). I did this and the installation of gsed continued and completed succesfully.
If wget is in the Downloads folder, the command you have to use it in point 8 should be prefaced with ./ as it's the local folder it will run from.
You have an extraneous line right below the wget command (sdff).
Otherwise, this is a really excellent procedure.
Many thanks,
Des

How do I initialize a trust database (Security Create Database) in Iplanet6 web server from the Solaris command line?

There is no option to create trust database from command line. You have to do it from GUI only.

Running Mac apps from the Unix command line

I hope I don't offend Mac lovers with this question, but as a total Mac newbie, I find Finder cumbersome. This may change as I learn all the features and keyboard shortcuts. but I don't think so. I've been playing with computers for 40 years and Unix for 30 and I know what I like. I like a command line interface, and prefer to avoid the point and squint interface to the extent possible.
I'd prefer to run everything from the shell, and not finder. So to run safari, I'd like to do something intuitive (to me, at least) like type ...
bash# safari
... instead of marching around in Finder or using the dock and the mouse.
Can any of you Mac hackers give an old Unix hacker a pointer to a clue?

Yes, I'm way too cheap to buy the book. I can't imagine how much I've saved over the years, always being way too cheap to buy the book. Easily enough to pay for the spiffy new computer.
No Windoze experience? You may think you do, but really, you don't know how lucky you are. My Vaxen ran 4.1 BSD though 4.3 BSD. I've played with a lot of flavors of unix. My favorite flavor in recent years has been FreeBSD, so I began paying close attention to the Mac since OS X.
X11 and Xcode were the first things I installed. I've been poking around, reading the docs, and getting a better handle on it all. I've only scratched the surface of the stuff on your pages, and it's been most helpful. There's good stuff there for unix newbies too.
If it were not for Jerry Garcia, I probably never would have had the stones to open my mouth in front of a microphone.

Prevent Startup Form from Loading using Command Line Arguments

Hi there
I'm developing a VB.NET windows forms application in VS2013.
The application will have 2 ways of being executed, one being by the user manually and the other being automated by the task scheduler.
When executed by the task scheduler, command line arguments will be used so that the application is aware that it is being run automatically and not by a user.
My problem is that I want the startup form to load when run by a user but I don't want it to load when it is run automatically, I just want to execute code.
Is it possible to prevent the startup form from loading by using the commandline arguments from the MyApplication_Startup event?
Cheers

Hi Aureuz,
>>Is it possible to prevent the startup form from loading by using the commandline arguments from the MyApplication_Startup event
It is impossible to accomplish it in the MyApplication_Startup event, we can use Form.Shown event:
#Form.Shown Event
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.form.shown(v=vs.110).aspx
If we start a form by using the commandline arguments, the count of CommandLineArgs will be above one, if so, use Me.Hide() method to hide this form.
Private Sub Form1_Shown(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Shown
Dim args As String() = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
If args.Count > 1 Then
Me.Hide()
Else
Me.Show()
End If
End Sub
You can also uncheck "Enable application framework" on the project properties application tab and select your startup object to a module object:
Module Module1
Sub Main()
Dim args As String() = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs()
If args.Count > 1 Then
'Run your background code
Else
Dim f As New Form1
f.ShowDialog()
End If
End Sub
End Module

How to extend C:\ Drive from D:\ using Command line.

Hi Friend,
Need your help for extend 30 GB from D:\ to C:\ Drive using Diskpart cmd.
My HDD size : 500,
C:\ Drive : 70 GB (Want round this drive as 100 GB)
D:\ Drive : 394 GB (Want to increase form here)
After rounding C:\ as 100 GB want to create D:\ drive from unallocated volume and need to do this migration in Diskpart or in BAT Command line.
-Thanks

It is not possible to take space from one volume and add it to another volume on the same drive by using diskpart.cmd or any other Microsoft built in tool.
There are some third party tools that can achieve the task you describe.
Anyways, the first step is to take backup of your disk, especially volume D:
After backing up your data, you could perform following steps.
Using diskpart, remove partition D:
Using diskpart, extend volume C: (extend size=30000)
Using diskpart create partition in the remaining space (create partition primary)
Assign drive letter D: to the partition created in previous step
Format volume d:
Restore data from backup to volume D:
