Help with FCS/FCP SAN setup - number of LUNS?

Dear all,
I am a newly certified ACMA and have setup a couple of new SANS but now I am having to upgrade an existing xSan 1.4.2 to 2 and in the process I have decided to rebuild from scratch. The SAN is used to support 5 FCP edit bays. Each controller has all 500GB drives. The problem I have found is the number of xRAIDS in the SAN. There are 3 xRAIDs therefore 6 controllers. Using 1 controller and 2 drives mirrored for the meta/journal LUN. One drive as a spare for the controller.
My question is a 2 parter:
1. What is the best use for the rest of this controller?
2. I now have 5 controllers/LUNS. According to best practice for HD video/FCS SANS the video affinity should be in multiples of 4 LUNS. In this case I have 1 extra. What should I use it for as well? Or can the video affinity contain 5 LUNS without issues? I would hope there is a use for this space in FCP.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and my apologies if this question has been asked already recently. I did a search but did not find any posts that could help me. Again any help is appreciated.

If you're using older Xserve RAIDs I would recommend dedicating that one controller to hosting the metadata LUN and nothing else. With the 5 remaining LUNs to you could put 4 in a video lun and the last LUN could be set to an affinity for use for other files. That is, you can associate folders on your Xsan to this LUN/StoragePool, but video files would go in the main video pool.
But If you're rebuilding the SAN you can benchmark/speedtest the SAN with 4 or 5 LUNs in your video storage and see what works best for you.

Help with OSX server mail setup

Please if anyone can tell me what I am doing wrong, I would be very grateful. I have a company with an externaly hosted website and an an internally hosted email (OSX server). I have everything kind of working, but some things don't seem quite right. I'll explain below:
I have a purchased domain: mycompany.com hosted by godaddy.
I am using Godaddy name servers: ns65.domaincontrol.com and ns66.domaincontrol.com
The external godaddy DNS has an a name entry for my mail server: mail pointing to 123.123.123.123 (which is my companies external static IP address).
There is also a null (@) a name record for my website hosting service (squarespace) pointing to 456.456.456.456
There is a cName record www pointing to the squarespace domain "www.squarespace6.com" (know this is unusual, but it is how squarespace asks this to be set up and does not work otherwise)
There is an MX record with priority 10 and host name @ pointing to mail.mycompany.com
I have a airport extreme router with the appropriate ports forwarded to the OSX server.
The DNS servers on the router are pointed to the internal IP address of the OSX server
I did not change the domain name on the router (mistake?) it is currently san.rr.com
On the OSX server I have set up host name to be mycompany.comDNS is set up with primary zone being mycompany.com
Primary Zone entries include
nameserver = mycompany.com
machine record host name is mycompany.com and the IP address is the internal IP address of the OSX server
another machine record with host name "mail" and IP address is the internal IP address of the OSX server.
Finally, there is a mail exchanger record with mail server "mail.mycompany.com" and priority 10
There are 2 entries autocreated in the Reverse zone
Mail is setup and running on the OSX server providing mail for "mail.mycompany.com"
Users are setup with email address: [email protected] (note: without the mail subdomain - I think this is OK?)
I am using self signed certificate.
In my clients (windows Thunderbird, Mac Mail, iOS mail), the settings are for the incoming mail server host name to be "mail.mycompany.com" and the outgoing also to be "mail.mycompany.com"
I woud have expected this to be imap.mycompany.com and smtp.mycompany.com respectively, but it doesn't work when I input these values and works with the former. Have I set this up wrong?? imap seems to require SSL on port 993 and SMTP seems to require TLS on port 587.Outlook on PC gives me an error that after googling appears to be a problem with not recognizing a fuly qualified hostname form the SMTP client. I see the fix, but wanted to know if that meant that my server didn't have a fully qualified host name and whether I should change that rather than just remove that restriction???
The final problem is that my outgoing emails seem to be getting caught up in other people's spam filters too frequently. What is the main reason for this? Is it because I have set something up wrong and it brings up flags or is it simply because I am not a huge hosting company, or somethign else althogether?
If you've gotten this far, big thanks! If you can help me, even more thanks!

Well, actually they are both getting caught up in spam filters and bounced back. I actually realized that part of the problem is that I have a dynamic IP address, but it doesn't change. Regardless, on the bounce back it looks like hotmail and other domains are rejecting email from my IP and recognize it as dynamic. This was a test server that i would by physically taking to my business where there is a static business IP address (Cox).
Sorry for the very long original message, but it seems that most people don't post enough information for the problem to be solved in their original posts and I was hoping to provide as much detail as possible.
The other is the question of "are things set up right?" It seems strange to me that both my outgoing and incoming servers are "mail.mycompany.com" and not imap.mycompany.com and smtp.mycompany.com and I wonder if this is going to cause me to have problems?
Is it a problem that my email addresses are [email protected] and not [email protected]?
Was I supposed to change the domain name on the router?
Also is it going to be a problem that I am using a self signed certificate?

Beginner needs Help with using FCP

Hi I just opened up FCP and have no idea how to use it. How can I watch free Video Tutorials?
Most videos I want to use in a video project are Xvid .avi videos and I have a hard time scrubbing through them. How can I make my editing for those more smooth.

Congratulations on purchasing a very complicated and deep collection of software. This forum is for technical support issues - not teaching you the software.
Your Xvid material will have to be converted to an editable format. What constitutes an editable format is listed in your Easy Setup list in FCP.
A good place to start learning the program is reading the manual - particularly the sections that introduce the software, spell out supported formats and describe the work flow.
For specific tutorials, Lydia.com is useful.
Ken Stone's website contains a great deal of helpful information.
Good luck.

Help with Workflow FCP to Compressor then DVD Pro and Shaky footage

Hi, I am new to using a MAC and also to Final Cut Studio so if this question has been asked before or seems obvious then I offer my apologies.
I have a clip on the timeline which is a little shaky but I need to use it. I have added a SmoothCam filter and when I playback in FCP all seems OK however after sending to Compressor then eventually to DVD Pro the clip shows as being shaky again, almost as if the filter had been deleted in the Compressor. Could someone perhaps talk me through the correct workflow I should be using and maybe suggest where I am going wrong please. As I said this is my first attempt to author a DVD with FCP on my MAC.
The footage was captured on my Panasonic Home camcorder. The settings in my camera were set at 1920 x 1080 HG mode for High Definition.
In my camera user guide it refers to the images being based upon the MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 codec so should I have set something similar when capturing into FCP.
Any advice would be welcomed.
Regards
Fred

Hi Mike I tried everything to try and resolve this one, I tried all combinations of field dominance. I also followed the recommendations from the Apple help to use the intermediate codec (search under AVCHD in the Help files) If I get anywhere I will mail you
Regards
Fred
PS I had some advice from another forum group who said to try and export a Quicktime movie into DVD Pro and not to send to Compressor, I will try that later and see if that helps.

Where to Go for Help With A Lost Original Serial Number?

To make a long and frustrating story really short, I had to re-install OSX Snow Leopard on my Mac Pro (don't ask me why...). In doing that, I had to re-install my Final Cut Studio. The latest version I have is an upgrade package duly registered with Apple at the time I installed the software (including the requested previous serial number, belonging to the Final Cut Studio original & complete package I bought in NYC a few years ago).
I inserted the upgrade serial number and then, again, it requested the original serial number (from the previous installation). It so happens that the whole package was destroyed and I don't have the original serial number anymore, although (as I said above) it has been duly registered with Apple at the time I installed the original package and then later, when I installed the upgrade.
Where do I go or contact (within Apple) to retrieve that original serial number and continue re-installing my Final Cut Studio?
Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Help with a FCP crash log??

I've been having frequent FCP crashes and I'm wondering if someone could help decipher this crash log? It crashes sometimes during project load, sometimes during renders or "Send to Compressor", and sometimes totally random. Thanks in advance for your help.

Nooblet needs help with Linksys WRT160Nv2 wired setup please

Hello,
I have set up my Linksys WRT160N and when I check the router status in the web based setup page, Status tab, there are numerical values for Internet IP address.
So, I believe the router is connecting to the internet via my netgear modem without any issues.
The problem I am encountering is that my browsers (I have tried Explorer and Firefox) are not accessing the internet.
I have attempted to access the internet with firewall off, but still no success.
Can someone give me some advice as to what settings within Windows XP or otherwise, that I need to alter to correct this issue.
Thank you in advance,

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for the help guys.
I seems to have fixed it. I uninstalled the Intel Pro Wireless software and rebooted.
Then I installed a driver 3 version old.
This did half the job, under Network connections when I 'configure' the network card, it is now showing a MAC address, before the uninstall and reboot, the MAC was all 0's using configure, but ipconfig/all was showing the right MAC address.
But, now the wireless was constantly acquiring an address, then connected, then went straight into acquiring an address again. then would not connect after a few attempts. Before the uninstall, it showed as connected, but I wasn't able to use the connection to access the router, internet etc.
Now, to fix the constant acquiring an address, I updated the driver to the latest driver along with the Intel Pro Wireless software and now here I am happily using my wireless connection without any hassles.
Again, thanks for the help.

Help with mail users and setup 10.6 mail server bound to 10.8 Open Directory

We have a 10.7 Open Directory server which was upgraded from 10.6. We have had some Open Directory issues since the upgrade. I am manually creating a 10.8 server as a replacement for the 10.7 server. All settings for services are running as expected and we are ready to turn over to the new server except for a problem with the ability to receive email.
Setup in both the original and the replacement has the OD server with DNS running with a correct MX record pointing to our 10.6 mail server.
In the replacement OD server the mail users were created as network users, with no userhome, with access to the mail service, and email addresses given.
The mail server was unbound from the original OD server, bound to the replacement OD server without SSL exactly as with the original, and restarted.
Initially the mail service said that mail clients had the wrong name or password. Opened WGM 10.6 on the MAIL server and checked the OD records. They showed the mail users not having the checkbox saying they were set up to receive mail selected. Selected the checkbox to receive mail.
Now the mail client seems to connect to the server correctly but does not show the emails in the system for the users. It is as though there is no email and the account is brand new.
Unbind the mail server from the replacement OD server, rebind it to the original OD server, and restart.
Mail clients connect and receive the mail in the accounts as expected.
Any ideas?
Thanks

I figured out what the mail server is doing. It has created new email stores for each of the new users. If we bind to the original OD it uses the original set of email stores. If we bind to the replacement OD it uses the new set of email stores.
I have tried to make sure that the userIDs match in each OD but that did not help.
The server is working for each OD. Does anyone know if I can tell the 10.6 mail server to use the old emails in the mailstore for the new user in the new OD?
If nothing else I can solve the problem by archiving the emails and copying them into the new user when running the new OD.

Need help with hosted credit card setup?

I am trying to setup Sagepay to connect to the BC website to take hosted credit card payments and have done the following steps, but what am I missing? I've done everything I can see to add/change from BC support site, but surely there must be something else to connect the online shop purchase form to the Sage checkout process to take payments?
I did an online chat with BC support on Friday and they kept going through the checkout using 'COD' and said it worked fine, which of course it did as no payment is taken using COD.
However, when you choose credit card, it just fails, so there must be something missing. It has been open as a support call since Friday with no response from BC, can anyone help me please, there is obviously something I am missing or not doing?
I have set up the IP address and subnet mask as required direct with Sage pay online.
I have set the payment gateway page in BC to Sage Pay and entered the vendor name as requested.
I have customised the checkout 'online shop purchase form' to include choose credit card.
Thanks

Hi Sidney,
Just an update for you.
I have heard back from Sage Pay support and it was an issue server side with them as you had initially thought. They said my customer had not made their account live and that they had corrected a few other settings their side, but didn't specify what exactly??
However, Sage support have sorted that out now and I tried a transaction BC end and Sage support have confirmed it has all gone through at their end too.
Just as a suggestion, the information is not that straight forward to find if you haven't set one up before. Most of what I found was through many different support articles and watching your online videos. I think that there should be one article that takes you through every stage of gateway setup and the payment form. It would have been a big help for me as it was my first BC Shop.
Thanks for all your help on the processing error and the form issue, it's much appreciated! I wouldn't have got to this stage without your help. So, I am glad it's up and running ok.
Thanks again!

Need Help with Firewire 800 Raid setup

Hello everyone. I am still a newbie with OS X as to most people here but here is my problem. I bought 2 external FW 800 HDD enclosures and install 2 500GB HDD's in them.
I daisy chained them and they work just fine. I would like to setup a Raid 0 on these drives. How do I do it? I go into the disk utility, it states to drag the disks or volumes in, "Cannot Do" and to hot create, "Which is grayed out!"
Can anyone help please? I would like to get this up and running asap.
One more thing, do the drives need to be OSX Journaled or can they be FAT32?
All the help is much appreciated.
Thanks.

Any help with a wireless printer setup?

I recently got a Dell, and an wireless printer with it. The set-up seems pretty straight forward, but I get to the point where on my printer's screen, it gives me a PIN number I am supposed to enter on the WPS page. Problem is, I can't find anywhere on the WPS page where I can enter this number... is there an easy way to simply add another device?
THanks in advance!

HELP with FCS remover and removing files

I was using FCS remover to remove FCP2 for a clean install. When I ran the app, I didn't seem to have enough of disk space to install the whole studio. When I tried to install I had a few GB left on my disk so I didn't put on all the apps. Anyway, FCP didn't fully load. I went back and used FCS remover again, and no I dont' have any disk space. I think that FCS remover didn't uninstall any of the apps and what I installed a second time didn't uninstall my second install. I can drag FCP and other apps to the trash, but I think soundtrack was never removed.
Anyway, I need to go in uninstall everything that FCP has installed so I can do a clean install and reinstall FCP the proper way.
Again, How can I find all the FCP files to free up enough space on my HD

Help with HP 3600n printer setup

Have a wrt54gs with wireless adapter. Trying to connect my HP 3600n printer. Can anyone take me step by step on the setup. Been with tech support for 4 hrs, still not working. Wireless is up and running. Thanks, KAP

So is the printer attached directly to your iMac, or is it attached to a router? Mine is attached to the Mac with USB and then shared with the other computers in the house over the LAN. Works great.

Help with multiple AP network setup

I am in need of a little help setting up my network again. I have a AP extreme2, AP extreme 1 and two AP expresses. The house I am in is wired with CAD 5 to each room. I have a Linksys Etherfast Router (BEFSR81, this is the 8 port version of the one that is certified to work with Back to my mac). I have two desktop macs (G4 and G5)without wireless as well as a MBPro.
I have had this all working as a WDS using the airports in bridge mode and was able to control Airtunes from any computer in the house, share files and use screen sharing without trouble. The problem is that back to my mac would not work with this set up because NAT was not switched on. How should I configure each of the Airports to be able to use Back to my mac, file sharing and airtunes for each computer in the house?
The basic set up I have is as follows:
1. Linkys router receiving input from cable modem (cox cable) and passing to LAN to distribute to each room of the house.
2. AP extreme 2 in office with G4/G5, airdisk attached.
3. AP extreme 1 in bed room
4. AP express in living room
5. AP express in den
In order to use the back to my mac feature of 10.5 I believe I need to select "Share a single IP address" in the Airport utility but what do I need to do after that? I am at a loss with IP addressing and such.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm using the Mac wired - it does not have wireless capability, and as it is sitting right next to the router I just want to hook it up with Ethernet cable. The wireless function is just for the PCs I have downstairs.
I am not sure what non-broadcast SSID means, but I think that has to do with the wireless portion of the network, right? I do have a SSID name set up, and WEP encryption so that only the PCs I own can connect to the wireless network, not anyone else's computers. But on the wired PC I have connected directly to the router, I do not have to input any of the security settings. I've even set the router to recognize the MAC addresses of all my computers, including the Mac.
What brand and model of router are you using successfully with Macs & PCs? The store I bought my router from is willing to give me a full refund if I can't get it to work - perhaps I would have better luck with the type of router you're using.

Need help with an advanced MIDI Setup

I have used Logic since v5.5 as a tape machine but haven't dived much in to MIDI. I have recently added the following hardware:
1) Novation Zero SLMkll control surface; hooked up via USB and seems to be functiong as it should.
2) M-Audio Keystation Pro 88 hooked up via USB; it i seems controlling virtual instruments as it should as well as the plug-ins I have assigned.
3) My Roland Juno Di synthesizer is giving me issues. What I play on it triggers its internal sounds as well as the virtual instruments in Logic. What I play on the Keystation also triggers the sounds in the Juno.
I have tried assigning different MIDI channels to the Juno and Keystation but still have the same results. I have set the Juno and Keystation as described in their manuals to no avail. The Apple Audio/MIDI Setup Utility will not let me change MIDI channels on any of it.
How do I get these things to work independently of eachother?
Any help would be appreciated!
PS; for my audio I am using an Apogee Ensemble and Duet.

>is there a way to rest it so i can type in my new password?
Your username and password are stored in your keychain. You can remove the key from the keychain and the next time you connect you'll be asked to authenticate again.
Open /Applications/Utilities/Keychain Access, find the relevant key (sorted by server name) and delete it.
>i cant place any files ont the server. it says that it is read only. how can i change it to read and write?
If you're usin the Finder as your FTP client, you can't. The Finder only supports read-only FTP. To upload files to a FTP server you need to use some other client.
