Getting started with virualization with one pc

How do I get started with virtualization? All the tutorials assume you have multiple servers on which you load the hypervisor client and then control with the hypervisor. I have one PC (Nice two xeon cpu, 12 GB, lots of storage, etc). I would like to use
it to create virtual machines so I can have Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 all running on virtual machines contained within the one physical server. It all seems overcomplicated and all the tutorials jump right into multi-server environments.
I would also like to able to later add Windows 10 when it is released.
Maybe this is just not possible, but if not, then please tell me and I will just set it up to boot multiple OS versions.

There's no difference if you have multiple servers. Creating and installing a VM works the same way.
1. Create the VM container
2. Mount your installation media
3. Start the VM, boot of the installation media
5. Install the OS
Not sure where you looked, but there are dozens of Hyper-V tutorials that don't involve multiple servers. Here are a few Bing returned:

How to get started Organizing photos with tags and albums

Apporximately 15,000
Mostly family, vacations, travel, etc over 30 years
What is the BEST way to get started? Should I tag them first or put them in albums and sub-albums and then try to tag and further identify them? I know nothing of how is best to proceed.
I am oveerwhelmed with the process and cannot seem to find a starting point. I have looked at many of the tutorials, but cannot find a "1-2-3 A-B-C" roadmap.
Message title was edited by: Brett N

I would recommend doing all (okay, almost all) of your organizing via tags. Don't bother using albums unless there are a subset of photos that you want to display somehow (like a slideshow, or photobook) in which case albums are the right tool. Also, make sure that when appropriate, you add the proper captions and notes.
I would start by using pencil and paper (or word processor) to make a list of categories and tags, in the appropriate hierarchy, that you might want. For example, in the people category, there are tags Jones Family, Smith Family, etc. (and sub-tags with people's names) In the event category, there are tags Vacation, Beach, Christmas, Hanuka, etc. Other categories you might want: Location (example: New York, Boston, Illinois), Content (mountain, church, waterfall, gorilla, historical site). This part completely depends on you.
Once you have this hiearachy of categories and tags to your liking, start creating/adding the tags (and captions and notes if needed) to your photos. You can work in small batches. Eventually you will have all your photos tagged (trust me, I know, I did this too).
Do NOT: move photos or folders from here to there, or rename them ... this is unnecessary extra work, as you will be using your tags from this point forward to locate your photos (exception: if you want/need to move the photos to a different hard disk, then by all means do so).

How do I get started replacing JCo with JCA?

Hi all,
After upgrading to EP SP15 I'm now reading that I should stop using JCo for client connection and start using JCA.
I've searched but can't seem to find any step-by-step procedure that shows me how to convert my existing Java code to be JCA-compliant.
Basically, I was doing client = poolEntry.getClient() and then using the client.execute("myrfc"). What code change is required to replace that code with JCA code?
Thanks,
Mike

Hey Mike,
Glad I could help!!
There have been a couple things that I have noticed. If you are using a table as an input parameter, use a table.close() once you are done filling it and before adding it to the importParams("table_name",table) code. I have two scenarios for that. Here is the first:
for (int j = 0; j < exportTable.length; j++) {
     table.insertRow();
     table.setString("VAR1", exportTable[j][0]);
     table.setString("VAR2", exportTable[j][1]);
table.close();
importParams.put("EXTAB", table);
,and the second one:
table.insertRow();
table.setString("VAR1", "This is variable 1");
table.setString("VAR2", "This is variable 2");
table.close();
importParams.put("EXTAB", table);
We are running EP6 SP14. In that booklet, it doesn't show using table.close(). You may not have to use it, but for me, I couldn't get it to work any other way. Once it was working, I removed it, and I would receive nothing.
Other than that right now, I haven't really run into any other problems... yet... haha.

Getting started/best practises with iphoto?

I've have a messy Picture folder and once the files were imported into iPhoto it became apparent just how messy...
I would like guidance as to the best approach to organizing the mess.
I am considering:
1) delete the Original Import Folder as suggested fixes in Discussions here
2) review and remove unwanted Pictures in "Pictures" folder using Finder.
3) reimporting "Originals Folder" gets me my old files back doesn't it?
4) Editing Library in iPhoto leaves my Pictures folders in a mess??
The direction I think is right is to:
a: First reorganize/edit photos & folders in Pictures.
b: Import all folders from Pictures, (which it doesn't look like was Originally done) currently missing photos.
c: remove & save the files from Pictures to External HD
d: Better understand importing and organizing future material.
What I am concerned about is how to accomplish step b: given my current state.
your help is most appreciated.

The iPhoto library always keeps the original photo plus the latest modified version (if one exists).
Whatever you do, don't ever mess with the innards of the iPhoto library. You can move it as a unit and copy to CD/DVD as a unit but don't ever take it apart. If any photos exist anywhere OUTSIDE OF THE LIBRARY, then they are truly unnecessary dupes.

Getting Started Sharing Data with SAP?

Hi Folks, as will be apparent, I'm a complete newbie with SAP.
Long and short of it is this: I have an App that generates project plans for maintenance systems, costs and budgets them, and reports 'currently' as a stand alone package.
A number of Clients who use the package already have SAP handling some of these aspect, and therefore would like some degree of integration. Primarily for our package to pass maintenance dates, costs and other performance data to SAP, and update work-scope progress etc. It would be useful if we could have two way linkage though to.
My view is that we should be able simply to access the relevant columns in a SAP managed table(s), but I may be being very simplistic and naive?
We use Java - developed with Servoy RAD, and access JDBC Dbs only.
Q: Is there a Java Bean available that opens some degree of data sharing to SAP?
Q: Where should I begin looking for info on how to do this?
Q: Is it likely that we need a SAP Pro to develop this integration.
Appreciate any feedback or guidance on where to look next!

Note, that this forum is dedicated to all other development-related questions which are not directly addressed by other forums. This includes Business Objects SDKs, products, or technologies which do not fall under BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, Crystal Reports Server, or Crystal Reports (for example Desktop Intelligence SDK, Universe Designer SDK, Portal Integration Kits, Java User Function Libraries, and other third party technologies or development languages).
I don't believe your query addresses any of the above products thus you may want to pose your query to one of the SAP product forums.

Starting up...one moment please

While i'd been very satisfied with the quality after switching over from TW, in less than a month, I suffered the 1st issue. Both my STB (non dvr) stopped working at the same time. 1st telling me channel is not available, press B to troubleshoot, then proceeded to getting starting up...one moment please. Restarting components did not resolve. Internet, fortunately, still worked. I used the home agent/live chat, and was able to get a customer rep in < 3 mins. Not too bad, considering it's Fri evening on a holiday weekend. Rep followed scripted procedure, ie. sending command to reset router...etc. Problem persisted, and he determined it could be a bad splitter, and setup an onsite service appt for Monday.
It's a new install, so it's not confidence inspiring to have components failing so soon. The rep stated there's no area wide issue, but is anyone aware of issues impacting NYC UES?
Or if you'd experienced this before, was the diagnostic/resolution consistent to a splitter issue?

1. Do you have an ONT inside you unit with fiber running to it, if you are in an apartment of condo?
2. What Model equipment do you have?
3. Have you tried disconnecting the STBs at the splitter and swapping the connections one at a time? Leaving the Router connected of course. The Internet works so there is no use in messing with that.
4. You may be able to get one TV up and running.
I have not seen a bad splitter unless you get some type of power surge or short in one of the cables. Some have reported one going bad. Usually they work out of the box or they don't. If you have vDSL with a separate VDSL box next to the router, it could be a bad router killing the TV signal. Other than # 3, you will probably need to wait for a tech, or get a bi-directional cable splitter from Radio Shack or somewhere else, if you are really desperate for TV. But it may not be a bad splitter, and at that point you would have wasted money, or replaced something that Verizon owes you.
Monday is a Holiday for many of us, so we will not be working anyway. If you can get them out and have an appointment for Monday, I would say great!
It never hurts to have a second set of eyes on someone else's install. I read where in one apartment the previous installer left off a low pass filter on the customers cable so the customers were seeing each others hardware which can also cause problems. The filter was located in the utility closet. But could also be installed in the unit.

Local control center is not getting started

Hi all,
we have Linux server installed with OWB 10.2 which will act as CLIENT . And a database unix server (oracle 10g) which is doesnt have OWB installed on it which will act as SERVER.
Now we have created the OWB repository through CLIENT in the database server of the SERVER machine, and the server will be our OWB target database.
IN the scenerio we are able to open th design center. but when we are starting the OWB control services manually ( login as OWB repo Owner) through the client machine , it is not getting started. Failes with the error "run_service.sh not found"
And when we run the service doctor it shows the following message....
"There is a problem accessing the service startup script from the database server
Please verify that the disk containing the file is visible to the database server
Please verify that the database server account has access rights on the file " .
It seems to be the problem with acessing the OS file from client machine through the repo_owner(database owb repo user) which is a part of server database.
Please help me in this regard.

The good thing about the oracle db is that you get the owb installed with the database so you dont run into these kind of problems.
When you install the database and owb together and try to run the controlcenter, the controlcenter comes up on its self via a script at <owbhome>rtp\sql\start_service
Now that you dont have your owb installed on your database you need to run that script with some different paramaters
Host: servername
port:1521
service_name: [email protected]
schema_name: OWB_OWNER

"Getting Started - Create PDF"

Acrobat X Pro:
This version of Acrobat now opens with a useful looking interface with broad options: 'open a recent file' and 'getting started', the latter with a few options...
Most often when I open acrobat this way I want to produce a new file: often from a scanner or whatever. However, the "Getting Started - Create PDF" option goes to a "open file" screen: it doesn't appear to have anything to do with 'starting a new file'.
Am I missing something here, or is this an error with the program?
Thanks.
PS this is just a curiosity point: generally I just ignore the screen and go directly to the toolbar to do what I need to...
Richard

Doesn't seem to be a 'typical' welcome screen: there is no typical option, as in most programs, to 'skip this screen', and on a quick review of the (very complicated) preferences options I don't see that type of option...
But in any case that wasn't the point: the point was that the 'new file' option doesn't appear to actually be a 'new file' option!!!

When trying to work with Agilent 34401A multimeter (serial RS-232 connection), HP34401A Getting Started.vi gives always the message: "Error 1073807369 occurred at Old VISA Open ".

Baud rate and parity are set correctly, RS-232 cable is also connected correctly. My QuickBasic program has no problems to read and write to the Multimeter. It is obviously a software problem: the same error is persistent if I disconnect RS-232 cable.
I downloaded NI-VISA 2.6 for Windows 95/98/NT/ME/2000/XP frorm digital.ni.com and installed it. But it did not help.
Thank you in advance
Best regards
Alexei Soloviev

Hi Steve

where the error was in the code ?
