Getting Virtual Server ID within OS running on guest VM

Hi,
If I login to OVM Manager and look at the info that is shown for a Virtual Server (under the info tab), there is a ID field.
I want to get this ID from within the OS running on one of the guest VMs. Could you let me know how can this be done? Which command can I use?
Regards,
Vinay

I have never installed the EM agent on Dom0. I always taken the approah of install in the EM agent on the guest and then attaching the VM Manager to EM. Thus, you get the performance stats of the guest themselves and the performance stats of the VM Servers themselves. I know it works. I'm doing it now. I do have collect issues from time to time and its more prevalent on some hardware than it is others.

Can't get Web Server 7 listener to run on port 80

I'm replacing our older web server v6 servers with newer servers running web server 7u8. I can't get the listener to run on port 80 as a non-root user. I've run the usermod -K basic,net_privaddr command, and verified it in /etc/user_attr. When I try to start the instance, however, I get the following error "HTTP3127: http-listener-1: http://sun197d1z2.pseg.com:80: Error creating socket (No access rights)". If I change the listener to run on port 8080 the instance starts. Any ideas, what am I missing.
Thanks

Is it necessary to run as a non-root user. If you start up webserver as root, the core processes will run as root, but the virtual server will run as a different user for security. Usually on Linux, that would be the user "nobody". You can also specify the user each virtual server should run as.
Hope that helps.

Is it possible to get the scope name within a running BPEL instance

I am currently adding some error handling for a business fault and wondered whether there is any way to get the scope name at run time. I am already catching the fault details using getFaultAsString but the support team have asked whether we can log any other additional information such as the scope name to help the diagnose the problems quickly.
If any one has any ideas on other details that may be worth logging please let me know.
Thanks Rich

You can also use the DOM API to traverse the XML tree and generate your path. But I advice to look into XPath because it is very easy to get values with simple XPath strings. Here's a good start:

SBO running on virtual server

Hi All
One of our clients is implementing virtual server , currently they are running on a x86 2003 OS machine.
Here is the question.
I am virtualizing 3 new servers, one for SAP, one for CRM and one that will be my SQL processing machine. My question goes as follows: our SAP is currently running on 32-bit SQL 2005, would I still need to keep the SQL version as 2005, or would we easily be able to move it to SQL 2008 64-bit (bearing in mind that my virtual SQL machine is Windows Server 2008 64-bit)?

Help With Virtual server

Hi, I'm trying to get virtual server set up on my computer. I seem to be having trouble with my computer's configuration, I've edited ssh_config to use port 2222 (port 22 is blocked by my ISP) and to use GatewayPorts, so I know the connection is reaching my computer, but ssh -v [email protected] gives me the following:
OpenSSH_4.2p1, OpenSSL 0.9.7i 14 Oct 2005
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh_config
debug1: Connecting to 207.148.144.12 [207.148.144.12] port 2222.
debug1: connect to address 207.148.144.12 port 2222: Connection refused
ssh: connect to host 207.148.144.12 port 2222: Connection refused
I've played around with my config files and can't find a way to get it not to be refused. Remote login is on. I'm not a UNIX user much at all so I might need a bit more help
Do I have to enter an authentication name in my configuration somehwere? Have I forgoetten to do anything? And is it just me or is it actually telling me its October of last year?
Thanks in advance,
~Stuart Barth

Are you trying to connect to port 2222 on the server? if so, changing ssh_config isn't going to have any effect.
ssh_config controls the ssh client configuration. In addition you need to tell the server to listen on port 2222 as well. It doesn't sound like you've done that.
Normally this would be controlled by the file /etc/sshd_config, but in the case of Mac OS X, sshd doesn't actually run as a daemon, so even this won't work.
Mac OS X uses launchd to manage the sshd server - invoking the sshd process when a network connection comes in. Therefore it's launchd that you need to change to tell it to listen to port.
You'll need to edit the file /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/ssh.plist and change the section:
<pre class=command> <key>SockServiceName</key>
<string>ssh</string></pre>
to replace 'ssh' with the port number you want to use (off hand I'm not sure if substituting a port name with a number will work, but it's worth a try.
The alternative, and somewhat simpler, option is to setup port forwarding on your router (assuming you're using some kind of NAT router) to forward connections from port 2222 on the public interface to port 22 on the server. This will only work if your router supports changing the port number as well s the destination IP address (not all of them do), but if it does then you don't need to change anything on the server.

Virtual server is already managed by another virtual server pool

I was trying to register a server to a server pool on OEM 10.2.0.5 console, on the first try it never completed the registration, it errored out. After doing 'clear operation error' I try to register the same server, Now I get "virtual server is already managed by another virtual server pool". Does any one ran into similar situation? How do I clear this? Thank you.

How do I clear this? Thank you.It's fairly simple to clear. First, stop the ovs-agent on the server:
# service ovs-agent stopThen, remove the local ovs-agent database:
# rm -rf /etc/ovs-agent/db Then, start the agent again:
# service ovs-agent startThe agent will now be reset back to an unconfigured state.

Q: getting Compass server without iPortal?

Hi!
we are currently using Netscape Enterprise Server 3.63 with Compass
Server 3.01. we are upgrading NES to iPlanet Web Server 4, but we're not
sure what to do with Compass. we only need the searching functionality
of Compass, so we don't need the whole iPlanet suite. would someone
please explain the situation to us?
according to:
http://docs.iplanet.com/docs/manuals/compass/301c/user/overview.htm
Compass itself uses Verity, quote "Searching. Part of iPlanet Compass
Server is a Verity search engine". so should we be just get Verity
instead of the whole iPortal suite, or can we just get Compass Server
without iPortal to run with iPlanet Web Server?
surfing around Verity's website, i couldn't find any clear product
information either. ie a product that clearly replaces Compass 3.01.
what should we do? please advice.
if we have to get both iWS and iPortal, which versions should we get? ie
which versions are compatible with which? we're migrating to iWS 4.1 SP2.
thanks in advance!
-chang

Hi again,
i was thinking, can we just run our old Compass server together with our
new iWS?
btw, about iWS, which version should i get? i just checked again, the
one that came in the box that someone ordered recently was 4.0 sp 2.
or is there a downloadable upgrade that goes with the 4.0 sp 2 media
that will upgrade it to 4.1 sp X?
thanks again!

Getting ipaddress or host name for virtual server

I want to get the ipaddress or host name for virtual server in a cluster environment. If i do
java.net.InetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostName()
it returns the ipaddress of the physical node currently running virtual server.
Is there any way to get the ipaddress or host name for virtual server ?

You can get the hostname by clicking on the account properties in outlook, but the port you connect to must be opened by your system admin.

Hyper-V Question -- Running Hyper-V or VMWare on a Windows Virtual Server

So my research tells me there likely is not a way to do this, but I think someone must have run into it before or there has been a previous need.
We have recently had two Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard virtual machines created for our use in our data center. We are using them to run a series of web scanning and monitoring tools. We want to run these tools within various Windows OS environments
with different combinations of browsers/applications/etc, making VMs the obvious way to go (preferably multiple VMs per virtual server). I don't know much about the virtual data center here, but when I try to enable Hyper-V, the system tells me it is
running and cannot run within itself. Likewise, if I try to install VMWare, it tells me it is not compatible with Hyper-V.
This may be akin to asking for Inception, but is there a way around it? Does anyone know of a way to run a VM inside a virtual server, or does anyone see an alternate solution? So far the only one I've come up with is to requisition physical
servers, install Windows Server 2012 on each, and then use a single level of either Hyper-V or VMWare to create the virtual machines we need.
Any information is greatly appreciated.

I think you might be missing something here.
You have Server Standard installed on the Bare metal. Then you add the Hyper-V Role. Then you open the Hyper-V Management Console and you begin creating VMs.
You do not add the Hyper-V Role within a virtual machine (VM).
The same process goes for VMware (ESX) - You install ESX on the bare metal, then you open the manager and you create VMs.
Now, if all you have are two VMs (which your first statement sounds like) you cannot enable Hyper-V in the VMs and then run nested VMs in that VM. This just does not work today.
XenServer can do this in a real way, but only with x86 paravirtualized Linux machines. And ESX can do this with some very specific emulation settings - and at that your eyes probably just glazed over.
To do this right, you need the physical machines.

Having issues with getting SQL Server Express to start services and run.

Good afternoon everyone,
I have been working on a 2012 R2 server getting ready to move databases to new hardware. I had SQL Server Express 2008 R2 running on this server with no issues. I was handed another software package that ran SQL Express 2012 and had to for compatibility
reasons. I have had multiple versions run on Server 2012 before with no issues. This time, not so lucky. When the installer from the updated package put on SQL Express 2012 it completed with errors ( error log posted at the end of post) and
would not allow me to run software. I then tried the db that I had installed on 2008 R2 and it also gave the same error as the 2012 version. IN basic terms the required services attempted to start and shut back down again. I have received
Error 1068 about database handles and error %%945. I know this db has plenty of space and the permissions were added for the Admin account to access both db's. I then uninstalled both versions and tried again, with the same errors listed when
I tried to start the services. I am thinking that a clean install would fix the issue however I am not certain what files/folders/reg entries need to be deleted or modified. I have researched all the errors I can find, however I am very
new with SQL anything so I know I am missing something. I also do not have an "E:" drive on this server (not sure why it is going there). Input would be very welcome as I am not certain where to go from here.
Thanks,
Matt

Hi HMLunger,
Did you install the SQL Server instance successfully? If not, please help to post the summary and detail logs for analysis. By default, the logs can be found in: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
However, if you fail to start SQL Server Express service after successfully installing SQL Server,
you might have to change the paths of the files by running the following scripts from the command prompt. For more details, please review this similar
thread.
NET START MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS /f /T3608
SQLCMD -S .\SQLEXPRESS
ALTER DATABASE model MODIFY FILE (NAME = logical_name , FILENAME = 'new_path\os_file_name');
ALTER DATABASE model MODIFY FILE (NAME = logical_name , FILENAME = 'new_path\os_file_name');
go
exit;
ALTER DATABASE msdb MODIFY FILE (NAME = logical_name , FILENAME = 'new_path\os_file_name');
ALTER DATABASE msdb MODIFY FILE (NAME = logical_name , FILENAME = 'new_path\os_file_name');
NET STOP MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS
In addition, you can follow the steps in this KB article to uninstall SQL Server.

Unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1

I am unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1. Log message is as follows:
Attempting to load library 'xplog70.dll' into memory. This is an informational message only. No user action is required.

Could not load the DLL xplog70.dll, or one of the DLLs it references. Reason: (null).

Hi JFriedley,
According to your error message, there might three reasons for this issue.
xplog70.dll is corrupt, you need to check if you have any SQL Server running on same file version and same production
edition. If xplog70.dll is corrupt, you can copy it from the new server where agent is running fine to your problematic server.
Native client not installed properly. If you try applying any latest Service Pack or Cumulative Update then check if the SQL Server Agent can start, if that also doesn’t solve issue then try to reinstalling SQL Server Native client from SQL Server setup
files.
There is a similar issue about error 17750, you can review the following article.

How to get the list of batch jobs running in a specific application server

Hi Team,
I am trying to check in SM37 if there is any specific condition to get the list of batch jobs assigned to a specific target server but cant find any.
Is there is way to find the list of batch jobs assigned to run in one specific application server.( Target server specified in SM36 while job creation)

Hello,
This is what you can do in SM37.
Execute the list of batch jobs, when the result appears on the screen edit the ALV grid via CTRL+F7.
Now add the following columns "TargetServ" and "Executing server".
You will now have two extra columns in your result list.
TargetServr contains the value of the application server where the job should run when you have explicitely filled it in.
Often this is empty, this means that at runtime SAP will determine itself on which application server the job will run (depending of course where the BGD processes are defined).
Executing server is filled in always for all executed jobs, this is the actual application server where the job has run.
You can also add these two fields in your initial selection screen of SM37 by using the "Extended job selection" button.
I hope this isusefull.

Getting SQL Server Express Running

I'm trying to get SQL Server Express running on my home computer that runs Window 7 Professional.
So far, I have downloaded and installed SQL Server Express. The Windows Start list shows Microsoft SQL Server 2008 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2.
I've seen several references to SQL Server Management Studio Express and am ready to download and install that. The download site says "You must install .NET Framework 2.0 and MSXML 6.0 Parser before you install SSMSE."
I already have Visual Studio 2010 Professional installed. Does that satisfy the .NET Framework 2.0 requirement? If not, do I need to download .NET Framework 2.0?
Regarding the MSXML Parser, I clicked on MSXML 6.0 Parser and was taken to a site headed "Feature Pack for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - February 2007." Text there said "... a collection of standalone install packages that provide additional value
for SQL Server 2005." My question, then, is should I download and install MSXML 6.0 Parser?
I'll appreciate any guidance.

Hi, it sounds like you installed SQL Server 2008 R2 Express engine only. To get the client tools, SQL Server Management Studio, install SQLEXPRADV_X64_ENU.exe (or X86 if on a 32-bit box) from:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30438
This SQLEXPRADV package includes both the engine and client tools. Since you're already installed engine, just select the client tools feature in the feature selection dialog and you should be good to go. Once you install SSMS, launch it and
connect to your instance by using <machine name>\SQLEXPRESS where SQLEXPRESS is the default value used during setup for the instance name.

Getting SQL Server Agent running

I am trying to get my SQL Server Agent running, and no conventional means thus far have worked.
I set it to run automatically in the Services window of the Control Panel. Attempting to run it from there yields the error "The SQL Server Agent (BENTLEYECAD) service on Local Computer started then stopped. Some services stop automatically if they
are not in use by services or programs"
Attempting to start the Server agent in the Server configuration manager yields the error "The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion. Consult the event log or other applicable error logs for details"
The resulting error log in SQLAGENT.OUT is
2015-02-19 15:58:44 - ? [100] Microsoft SQLServerAgent version 10.50.1600.1 (x86 unicode retail build) : Process ID 6064

I have installed this version of SQL alongside Promise V8i (M). Any advice on how to get this server agent running is welcome

I see.
I'm not sure if it's Express or not, how can I tell? The start-up for the server management studio just says "Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2"
If this is the case, will any other version of SQL besides Express work? or is it only specific ones?
Thanks,
Eugene O'Donnell
