Has anyone successfully used the serial-over-lan feature in ipmitool?

The IPMI hardware in Apple's Intel Xserves ostensibly supports serial-over-LAN access via ipmitool. Attempting to access it with ipmitool doesn't appear to work, however; the command
ipmitool -H hostname -U username sol activate
simply returns without entering a serial session. I am able to perform other queries on the same interface with ipmitool, however. Is there some setting that I must enable in order to permit the above command to succeed?

I have version 2.0.2 installed. The firmware is not up to date (its boot ROM is at version XS11.0080.B01); however, I never was able to figure out how to update it (see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1569860&tstart=0). Querying the bmc info with ipmitool does work; it reports firmware revision 1.2.8. No manual changes were made within /dev to my knowledge.

    Has anyone successfully used the Intuit Quicken compatible with Lion upgrade for investment tracking?

    Although I gave up investment tracking for personal reasons (I had used Quicken Deluxe 2002 for many years for that reason), my understanding is that the new Quicken 2007 for Lion/Mt. Lion is completely the same feature wise as Quicken 2007 for PPC.  It will run on Snow Leopard, too.
    For $15, why not download it and just try it and LET US KNOW!

  • Has anyone successfully used the ZTE Open C with an AT&T microcell?

    I have a ZTE Open C and have had no issues with initial setup w/AT&T. However, like most newer phones the voice signal reception is very weak.
    I've had an AT&T Microcell before, but I don't have one now. For those that are unaware, the microcell allows 3G phones to connect via a 3G signal, but the call is routed through a home broadband internet connection.
    Has anyone successfully used a ZTE Open C w/Firefox OS AND used an AT&T microcell? If yes, did you need to do anything special on the phone or with Firefox OS.

    I don't use a ZTE Open C, however, I do have a ZTE Open (Original) on AT&T and so I'll see if I can help ;D
    I know someone who has a Microcell, and I have used it myself a few times. However, the microcell only works if you have entered in your phone number into settings of the Microcell.
    Check the Microcell settings.
    Check the data connection settings on your FxOS device
    Make sure your Microcell is properly connected to WiFi
    and check the AT&T support page for more info
    For a while, it actually hasn't actually worked for me. I apologize if this doesn't solve your problem :D

  • Has anyone successfully used the Zoom R16 with Audition?

    I’ve tried just about everything, but can’t seem to get Audition to run with the Zoom R16.  As noted in a recent post, I updated both the Zoom R16 firmware and widows driver, but that doesn’t seem to make the 2 work harmoniously. 
    Has anyone had success getting the 2 to work together?  If so, what’s the trick?!
    Thanks in advance

  • Has anyone successfully used Oracle EM as a Monitoring Solution??

    Hi All,
    This might be a wrong place to post ;) but anyways. My question is can we use Oracle EM as a Monitoring Solution? If so has anyone successfully used it?
    I have used Oracle EM over the years for mostly managing Databases. Eventually with the Middleware Support I have tried to use it to monitor Middleware Servers, earlier OC4J and recently WebLogic Servers. I however find that most people when talk about EM they think of it as a Business Transaction Monitoring Solution. (Lets keep BTM out for a while I know about that plugin but it is another full set of questions)
    Mostly I get questions as to can we "drill down the transactions" and see who initiated it and "what is being processed at this moment". Here transaction means Business Transaction as opposed "this thread is executing this particular piece of code". People want to know this piece of code is being executed "for Purchase Order XYZ" as opposed to just knowing that purchase order is being processed. If you know what i mean.
    No doubt OEM is great tool for an Admin but does it really sell itself as a monitoring solution? I have not seen a successful implementation so far with OEM being a central monitoring solution. If anyone has any experiences to share it would be great.

    I tried to look at that option. It is available only for the Database. I was looking something more towards say the web Services hosted or the Web Applications hosted on Weblogic instances. Can we find say the Web Service call which had the Purchase Order XYZ in its request, etc.

  • Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive?

    Has anyone successfully used a "WD My Book for Mac" via NAS (plugged into USB port on router) as a Time Machine back-up drive? Apple support tech tried to tell me it wasn't possible and that the only NAS Time Machine could back up to is the Time Capsule, but I'm not buying it. I know it's doable, but I'm having a hard time figuring out which External HDDs will work and which ones won't.  If not My Book for Mac, is there an External HDD that will work? (Running OS X 10.9.1 - Mavericks, btw...)

    Given the nature of backups, my recommendation has always been to use a strategy that is unequivocally supported by Apple. As you already determined Apple Support unequivocally informed you that your proposal will not work, unless your router is an Apple AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule.
    The exhaustive list of devices supported by Time Machine amounts to the following:
    AirPort Time Capsule's built-in hard disk (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to a Time Capsule (any model)
    External USB hard disk drive connected to an AirPort Extreme (current model only)
    A hard disk drive directly connected to your Mac
    That is all.
    Use whatever backup device you want, but you should be aware that this site is full of reports of misery from hapless individuals who had been using NAS devices for Time Machine backups, only to find that they were incomplete, corrupted, or useless when they were required. Apple won't care if you lose your data while using a Time Machine configuration specifically excluded from their technical support documents.

  • Has anyone successfully implemented the JSF Viewer with Facelets?

    We have recently started integrating Crystal into one of our web apps that is using JSF + Facelets + Seam.
    I've built a taglib for the jsf viewer and configured it in web.xml and faces-config. I'm pulling an IReportSource from a backing bean using com.crystaldecisions.reports.sdk.ReportClientDocument  and that is using a .rpt file stored on a directory. This all seems to be working, as I can step through the code and see the IReportSource being generated.
    However, when the page loads, I am seeing the crystal javascript being converted in the page source, but nothing is loading on the page. 
    Has anyone seen an issue similar to this tied to Facelets? I've seen numerous documentation on Crystal and JSP, but very little on JSF  or Facelets.
    Has anyone been able to get a setup like this or similar to work properly?
    I've also noticed an error when adding the viewer:
    java.io.IOException: Recover report client document state failed.
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.ReportClientDocument.readExternal(SourceFile:1492)
    at com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.AdvancedReportSource.readExternal(SourceFile:131)
    at java.io.ObjectInputStream.readExternalData(ObjectInputStream.java:1792)
    I believe this to be related to me switching over to the serializable ReportClientDocument: com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.application.ReportClientDocument  versus using the nonserializable version.
    When using the non-serializable version, I am seeing a constructor issue with the JPEReportSource
    Exception: java.io.InvalidClassException: com.crystaldecisions.reports.reportengineinterface.JPEReportSource; no valid constructor
    Has anyone seen this issue before or able to offer any suggestions?

    Well, according to the tutorials I have seen on the internet, I believe CrystalReport was successfully implemented and tested with jsp, to have it working with Facelets, we need to do a little bit of work around. We need to make a new JSF custom component and assign it to an external renderer. then we can use it to view the report
    please follow these and it should work after then,
    1- bring the following jars into your libs
    commons-configuration-1.2.jar
    Concurrent.jar
    CrystalCommon.jar
    CrystalContentModels.jar
    CrystalDatabaseConnectors.jar
    CrystalFormulas.jar
    CrystalQueryEngine.jar
    CrystalReportEngine.jar
    CrystalReportingCommon.jar
    icu4j.jar
    jrcadapter.jar
    jrcerom.jar
    keycodeDecoder.jar
    MetafileRenderer.jar
    rasapp.jar
    rascore.jar
    rpoifs.jar
    serialization.jar
    URIUtil.jar
    webreporting.jar
    webreporting-jsf.jar
    xercesImpl.jar
    xml-apis.jar
    2- bring the folder "crystalreportviewers115" right under the "WebContent".
    3- implement the custom FacesComponent and make it extend the "UIReportPageViewer" as follows;
    import packagename.CustomReportRenderer;
    @FacesComponent ("packagename.newReportViewer")
    public class UIReportViewer extends com.crystaldecisions.report.web.jsf.UIReportPageViewer implements Serializable{
        public UIReportViewer () {
            this.setRendererType("packagename.CustomReportRenderer");
    4- implement the renderer and make it extend the "ViewerHtmlRenderer" as follows;
    @FacesRenderer(componentFamily="CrystalReports.DHTMLViewer", rendererType="packagename.CustomReportRenderer")
    public class CustomReportRenderer extends com.crystaldecisions.report.web.jsf.ViewerHtmlRenderer implements Serializable {
    5- make a new tag library xml file next to the web.xml so the application can find the tag configurations. name it "taglib.xml" and add the following inside it;
    <facelet-taglib xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
        xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
        version="2.0">
        <namespace>http://new-jsf-custom-components/</namespace>
        <tag>
            <tag-name>ReportViewer</tag-name>
            <component>
                <component-type>packagename.newReportViewer</component-type>
                <renderer-type>packagename.CustomReportRenderer</renderer-type>
            </component>
        </tag>
    </facelet-taglib>
    6- configure the web.xml with the following
      <context-param>
            <description>
            State saving method: 'client' or 'server' (=default). See JSF Specification 2.5.2</description>
            <param-name>javax.faces.STATE_SAVING_METHOD</param-name>
            <param-value>server</param-value>
        </context-param>
        <context-param>
              <param-name>javax.faces.FACELETS_LIBRARIES</param-name>
            <param-value>/WEB-INF/taglib.xml</param-value>
        </context-param>
        <context-param>
            <param-name>crystal_image_uri</param-name>
            <param-value>../../crystalreportviewers115</param-value>
        </context-param>
    7- implement the reportViewer.xhtml and make sure you have the following;
    - in the tag libraries add the namespace schema xmlns:crystalnmcps="http://new-jsf-custom-components/"
    - add the new reportViewer component
    <crystalnmcps:ReportViewer reportSource="#{youController.reportSource}"  displayToolbarLogo="false" parameterFields="#{youController.parameterFields}"  allowParameterPrompting="false" />
    Now run your app.
    I hope this helps. good luck

  • Has anyone tried using the app Telnames for their mobile sites/storage?

    Have been looking at EverWeb and lurking in the forums following the discussions regarding it. Downloaded the demo and it seems like more then I want to do. (Still using iWeb for my main site)
    While looking for alternatives I saw Telnames on App Store. I would like to know if anyone has tried using/buying it? I will be working on a 6+ and building a Bed and Breakfast mobile site. 
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for the info on symlinks. I pretty much already convinced the powers above me this was a bad idea because of the horrible performance and problems getting OS X to even recognize it as a home directory, but the symlink info is the nail in the coffin. We have had great success using windows file servers for our network home directories (we are a complete windows shop besides my macs) and I really didn't want to change anyways.

  • Anyone successfully using the credit card interface?

    I have heard that this interface is not really a 'mature' product. Has anyone implemented it, and if so, would you mind providing some info about how you got there? Thanks in advance!

    So my sister and I have our own separate iTunes accounts, and she has her set up with her credit card. She let me use her credit card on mine but it keeps saying the security code is invalid. Then the credit card company called about her credit card activity. Are you sure it's not impossible to use the same credit card on our different accounts?

  • Has anyone successfully used multiple page orientations in a CR2008 report?

    Hi -- I posted about this a couple of days ago:
       Unwanted blank pages using multiple page orientations in CR 2008
    I have a report with multiple subreports, each 1 page long, and some of which need to use landscape
    orientation (most are portrait). Thanks to the forum, I learned that this is possible in CR2008.
    Each subreport is in a report footer section. So, for the subreports that need to be landscape,
    I use the section expert for that footer, Paging tab, and set it to landscape. I DO NOT
    check New Page Before and New Page After -- but I get them anyway. There's a blank page
    before the landscape page -- portrait orientation. There's a blank page after the landscape
    page -- landscape orientation. In addition to being ugly, the blank pages mess up the page numbers that
    need to be associated w/ each subreport.
    I've checked the Report Footers before and after the footer for the landscape subreport.. neither of them have
    New Page Before or New Page After checked.
    I'm hoping to generate more interest/discussion w/ this post, and I also have some additional
    information.
    1) The "blank" pages that appear before and after the landscape page seem to be duplicates of the previous section.
    That is, subreport 3 is in page footer c (portrait). Its results correctly appear on page 3, but page 4, which appears
    blank, is also page footer c and shows the subreport object included -- but with no data.
    The subreport in page footer section d (landscape) appears on page 5 (it should be on 4). Page 6 appears blank,
    but it is also page footer section d and shows the subreport object included.
    If I change page footer c to landscape, all the "blank" pages go away (though subreport c takes up 2 pages because
    it's too long for a landscape page). So, from that perspective, having successive pages w/ the non-default
    orientation seemed to help...
    Is there some trick to using multiple page orientations in a report that I'm not aware of? Can someone describe
    an example where they were successful?
    Maybe tech support will be the way to go, but I'd like to think that someone out there has worked w/ this feature!
    Thanks much,
    Carol

    Please don't post the same question multiple times

  • Has anybody successfully used the META2TTF utility?

    Hey there, I'm trying to use a new function (new as of 11.5) called META2TTF (found in the 11.5's Docutoolbox reference guide), it converts Portrait Metacode Xerox fonts to a Windows TrueType Font.
    I'm trying to use the utilty to, as my explanation above would suggest, convert Xerox fonts we own to their TrueType version so our users can see what their efforts in Documaker would look like while working on their sections, etc. However, in using the command line function, I keep getting the message "Device font in non-portrait orientation not converted." I'm pretty confident the font(s) I'm trying to convert are portrait oriented, so I'm just wondering if anybody else has by chance used this utility so I can figure out if it's user error or whether I need to open a ticket with Oracle...
    i used the font converter wizard last week in 11.5 to successfully convert all of my Xerox fonts to PCL so I can print locally and see the true representation of what I create in Studio, but TTF is not an option in the wizard (unless it's just not called TTF and I'm missing the proverbial "boat" on this one).
    Thanks,
    Gregg

    I think there might be a mistake in the documentation which says to use /I= and /O= for the input Xerox font name and the output TrueType font name. Actually, you don't use /I= and /O=, just specify the input Xerox font name and the output TrueType font name.
    For example,
    meta2ttf C:\metafonts\HM108P.fnt "C:\My Fonts\HM108P.TTF"

  • Has anyone else used the WireTunes Axxess IPOD Car Kit?

    I have recently installed this hookup in my vehicle. it's pretty cool and works well. it displays the song title and info on my xm ready stereo. The only problem i have is when i skip to the next song it skips one too many and skips over the next to the next song. Does anyone have this product and have you had similar problems?

    that is true Angela...toyota uses the same unit for all the cars...the only issue they seem to have is when trying to integrate with the toyota's that have the factory NAV system, or the built in 5 disk changer in the dash.. I think the most flexible unit that I have found is this one....
    http://www.sounddomain.com/item/USSPA11TOY
    It allows you to use 2 different modes, one being direct control from the iPod, none of the others that I have found allow you complete control from the head unit, they all seem to want you to make up multiple playlists and treat those lists as a CD's in a trunk mounted cd changer...which to me seems a bit clunky.

  • Has anyone successfully downloaded the latest 2.40-WIN BIOS for the P100-188?

    The reason I ask is because when I try to download the file it keeps coming up empty, I'm not comfortable with updating using the traditional method, as it seems more things can go wrong during the process, and Toshiba recommends using the windows method anyway.
    I don't understand it, the graphics driver they have listed as the latest version for my machine is 8.3.2.0, the one on my machine is 8.4.0.0, numbering convention states the version I have installed is the latest, so how come the 8.3 version is listed?
    Plus when you download a new driver or BIOS they don't give any details on what issues the update fixes or addresses, are they hiding this information from us or just assuming we're all psychic?
    Now they seem to be posting blank files as well, I know we are all human and we all make mistakes but is anybody working for this website paying attention? I sent an email to ForumModeration on the 17th of October about not being able to post as it was coming up as "profanity or inappropriate language" even though the offending piece of text was a link to a web page! 9 days later I'm still waiting on an answer, or even an acknowledgement.
    I'm sorry for ranting on a bit but I can't help feeling it would be easier to get blood from a stone than a information from anyone.

    Hi
    Strange. View min ago I have tried to download the BIOS 2.4WIN but I was not able to unzip this folder. I think there must be a zip error. Possibly it will be fixed in the netx couple of days. Lets hope
    Anyway, I have also looked for some additional information about BIOS update and release details but it seems there are no further informations about BIOS changes.
    But if you click on the option more info to the right of every update you will find some descriptions. You will also find Toshiba BIOS-Update Description.
    I think you should read this document before starting any BIOS updates.
    I get also the profanity or inappropriate language message and I assume it happens because of the word filtering which check the message before it will be post in the forum.
    Sometimes its a little bit annoying because I have to change the text but I can live with them. B-) be cool

  • Has anyone successfully used OSX Lion with Logic 8, a Digi002 and Digidesign's Coreaudio?  Need to know for iCloud update.

    I need to upgrade to Lion for iCloud and to shift my mobile me iDisk to iCloud in order to save the content I have and need to share.
    Anyone using Logic 8 with this?  I want to be sure, as I can't afford to upgrade everthing just yet.
    Thanks

    I can give a partial answer.
    If you're installing Lion over the top of Snow Leopard Logic should be fine, it you're going to run a clean install of Lion, Logic 8 will not install but will run if you can copy it over from a working SL install.
    Update: This thread has info on how to install Logic 8 on a clean install of Lion.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/18270040#18270040
    The other issue are Digi's Core Audio MIDI drivers, they don't seem to be Lion compatible yet so while you may have the audio part of the interface working with Lion, you have to remove the MIDI drivers or Logic chokes while booting up. (unless there are new drivers I don't know about) Perhaps others have more info on the Digi situation.

  • Has anyone actually used the Apple USB "rescue" drive on a 2011 MBA or Mac Mini?

    I am getting conflicting information as to whether the $69.00 Lion USB "Rescue drive" will function on a mid 2011 MacBook Air or a Mid 2011 Mac Mini. (Yes, I know it will work on the 2011 MacBook Pros).
    1) The local Apple Store Genius Bar personell say that it will not work. It has 10.7.0 Build 11A511, and the 2011 MBA's and Mac Mini's require at least 10.7.0 Build 11A2063 and 11A20621, respectively.
    2) Several people have answered this question in the Q&A section of the online Apple Store that it will work on a mid 2011 MBA.
    3) I contacted Apple, via the Chat system within the online Apple Store, and they are kinda sure that it will work. But in any case, if I were to get it to work it would ace my recovery partition, and forever NEVER let me use a recovery partition on that Mac again.
    So, I am left with the most reasonable avenue to obtain a correct answer. I ask if anyone has sucessfully used this drive on a mid 2011 MBA or mid 2011 Mac Mini.
