Remote system image management

This is more of an image management than a package management question but the appropriate forum was read-only.
I'm looking into possibly using zen for managing software on an embedded system, but I have some requirements that I would like to know if zen is capable of handling.
The target system is a dual boot linux box. There are 2 bootable partitions, each with a different software version. I need to be able to upload and install a linux boot image to the non-active partition and update grub to allow access to the newly unpacked image. The user can then reboot into the other partition to activate the new software. If there's a problem they can reboot back into the previous version.
We've done this with home grown tools before but there is a desire for better integration with enterprise level management tools.
I'm not set on handling this exactly as described, so if Zen can manage something similar I would be interested in knowing how and would consider adapting our procedure to work with Zen.

Lightroom image management - ready for professionals?

Hi
I have a client, which is doing professional gardening photography for various magazines in this topic. Her business ranges from magazine reports about individual gardens to delivering single images to different publishers as requested (for example by flower type, color etc.). The main thing is that her image portfolio isn't organized so much in individual shoots or contracts. An image can be sent to many publishers at any time. She needs to kepp track of this. She needs to know, which image has been published when and where.
Before moving to digital recently, she kept track of here jobs with cumulus, which had more database capabilities, but much less possibilities in image adjustment. Shooting only raw with a Canon 1 series camera, she choosed Lightroom as here image editing and managing tool. Beeing pleased with the friendliness of the user interface and many of its image editing and managing capabilities, she (actually we) are astonished, that even in a version 2 it is still not really possible to keep track of what happens to the images in a professional environment (despite the claim of Adobe that the product is made for professionals).
In essence the program isn't really capable of managing image data, which has a one to many relationship to the image (i.e. the instances of cases an image is sent to a customer). We experimented with virtual copies, which can carry individual metadata, collections (which cannot carry metadata) or storing the required data in the large description field. None of these possibilites were really satisfying. The most promising solution in using virtual copies, ended up in a maintenance nightmare, because it was too easy to forget, where to do which data management (at the master raw file or at the virtual copy).
Then, I learned that with Lightroom 2 there is a possibility to extend metadata, but, unfortunately with the usual limitation of not supporting one to many data (in the SDK-documentation called "spreadsheet type data"). The rest of the SDK documentation did not reveal any other helpful way of solving the problem as the SDK deals mainly with export plugin programming or web stuff, which is of no use to the client. It is rather disappointing that Lightroom's extensibility is still so limited. Where is the programming interface, that allows the development of complete new modules?
Given the slow pace, Lightroom development takes (I can expect that "breakthrough" extensions to the SDK will take even longer), I guess that my client can wait for another 3 or 5 years until anything close to true image management will come up.
So we have to look for some intermediate solutions. Whereas other software (expression media, idimager, cumulus) may have better database capabilities, they lack in raw editing completely and are often more awkward to use. Therefore, I would like to ask the community here, how they handle the tasks described above with Lightroom or with other tools? Perhaps we have overlooked a Lightroom capability?
One thing I thought of is to develop a special keyword hierarchy for contracts, but this also would not allow, all the images tracking needed.
Any ideas? I guess there aren't any plugins, which can deal with one to many data.
Kind regards
Thomas

Actually, we haven't ruled out keywords yet, in fact, at the moment it seems to be the only realistic possibility. However, I wonder if a growing keyword hierarchy can become unwieldy at the end, so I am sceptical, if this idea would deliver.
In general, I think that Lightroom should more move into the direction of beeing a platform for other vendors. The limitation to web stuff and export solutions isn't enough. I hope to see third party vendor modules, eventually one which provides more professional image management and tracking capabilites, exploring the fact that Lightroom has a database underneath it.
I would like to see a DxO raw conversion module or a lens correction module, fields where I think Lightroom and ACR are still not the best in its class (I think LightZone and DxO are the better raw processing engines).
Unfortunately, I do not see Lightroom going much into this direction. Probably this is already too late for the version 3 release, due in 2010 (?), so we need to wait until v4 (in 2012 ?) until the situation improves?
I believe many customers (especially professionals with precious time) need a fully integrated system, which can do image management and image adjustment at the same time. Lightroom is the right platform for it, if Adobe let it be.
Kind regards
Thomas

Prime Infrastructure 1.2 - Software Image Management

Good Day,
I have some issues with CPI 1.2. I've tried to Import Images from Cisco.com through Software Image Management
for test purposes by using my credentials. But it has finished success just a twice. Other attempt hadn't any result.
Then I try to choose Image for my test 3750E switch, sometimes I have error message like bellow:
After I choose another image and return to first that I need, and press <Submit>, I have a message that "Image collection job CCO Image Collection Job is Scheduled Successfully":
I wait some time and refresh, but I don't see any new Images. The same problem exist then I try Import Images from connected Devise. I use Shedule Start Time - Now.
Also, I can't view any information about Image in Device Work Center:
Any ideas, guys?

I'm having the same issue. I'm thinking there are still a lot of bugs in PI that Cisco needs to work out. LMS is still the better option for now in managing your switching environment. I know that Cisco hopes to role all device management under the umbrella of PI, but they still have some bugs to workout IMO.

Offline Image Management

All of the other Digital Asset Management (DAM) software packages that I have used manage offline storage. Some have built-in capability to burn CD/DVD's; others just recognize that it has been done. However, all of them track the offline media by serial number, and allow the user to assign a more friendly name to the disk. This allows one to locate the disk containing an image. Without this, support for offline images is not particularly useful.
So far as I have been able to determine, Lightroom does not provide any capability for this. In particular, when I import images from a CD (leaving them in place), Lightroom recognizes the drive on which the CD is mounted. When I attempt to reference the images later, with the CD unmounted, Lightroom provides the standard Windows dialog box to find a missing file.
Is there some capability for Lightroom to manage offline images that I have not found? If not, has anyone looked into coordinating it with a real DAM package? I like Lightroom's workflow and raw conversion, but I need image management, too.
Thanks,
David

Thanks for that pointer. I have a PC rather than a Mac, but that may be effective on a PC, too.
However, what I'd really like Lightroom to do is integrate with iMatch. It tracks offline images, and names of mountable media (i.e., CDs and DVDs). It also scales very well, and is quite fast.
The problem I have had with iMatch is that it is not integrated into my workflow, and I tend not to enter relevant metadata for my images for relatively long periods of time. Then, of course, I have a lot to do, and it's a chore. If I were able to enter metadata - categories, keywords - in Lightroom, as I process my images, and then easily import that metadata into iMatch, I would be much happier.
I'll look around in the iMatch forum some more. Most of the discussion I saw there looked a little backwards to me - it was about moving images and metadata from iMatch to Lightroom.

Need maximum information about Content Management in Weblogic Portal 10.3

Hi,
I have worked with Weblogic Portal before, but it's been some time, I do not remember much and I quickly need to find some info.
We are making a proposal to a customer and have suggested Weblogic Portal.
I would like to give as much information about the technicalities of the CMS in Weblogic Portal as possible.
Could you please answer these questions ?
I am looking for information on the CMS that is integrated in Weblogic Portal 10.3
I have already checked the available information on the site :
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13155_01/wlp/docs103/cm/introCM.html#wp1067976
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13155_01/wlp/docs103/portlets/development.html
I would like to find more information, especially regarding these questions :
What are the portlets that are available by default in Weblogic Portal 10.3 ? I read about the Content Presenter portlets, which display real-time data.
Are there other portlets like these ?
How can i manage the documentation in the CMS ? I have several source of data (databases, Lotus repositories ...) : can i load them into the WLP Virtual Content Repository ?
What about images ? Do i need to work on a special format to handle them in my portlets ?
Is it possible to load data coming from XML files into the repository so i can display them on the portal ?
Thanks a lot for helping.

BulkLoader is described in the docs here:
http://e-docs.bea.com/wlp/docs102/cm/bulkloader.html
As far as portlets go, WLP provides lots of facilities for creating your own portlets, to do exactly what you want them to do. It really depends upon what you want to do.
If you're looking to display images, also take a look at the personalization features like Content Selectors and Placeholders, which can retrieve an image from the CM system.
If you're looking to iterate over a set of content, take a look at display templates as a means to control the presentation.
You may be able to use re-portlets from the WLP Admin tools, though I'm not familiar with the details.

Question about Photo Management

Hello -
I am an amateur photographer with a few thousand photos and just bought Aperture 2 to replace iPhoto. One of the things that always irked me about iPhoto was the file structure, and I longed to be able to organize my photos into my own folders within the finder. Somehow, in my mind, this always made them more tangible and accessible.
My question is... Is this opinion founded, or is it just as viable to store them in the Aperture library and be done with it? I'd love to hear how the "pros" do it.
Thanks.

There is not such thing as a "pro way" of working with Aperture. It all depends on your own unique workflow.
If all your adjustment and manipulation need can be fullfilled by the functionality in Aperture then the easy and simple solution will be to store all your images in the Aperture library. This will allow you to take advantage of features like complete backing up to vaults.
If you for some process reason (for example panorama stitching) want other software applications to have access to your master files then there are two options. Yu can store all your masters as referenced files or your could just export those specific masters from the Aperture library when you need them. The new plug-in feature may in the future provide "round-tripping" capability to support your specific needs.
I think that you should decide if you want and need to use the limited features in the Finder to locate specific images. Aperture is a image management application that offers almost any thinkable way of structuring, searching, sorting and filtering your images. It do not make any difference if your images are stored in the Aperture library or if they are referenced from locations outside your Aperture library. You will in any case need to import your images into Aperture in order to take advantage of the image management functionality.
I am not a pro photog but I hope this answers some of your questions.

Image Manager doesn't upload images (anymore)

Hi All,
We have recently upgraded our VC install from SP16 to SP17. Prior to this, the image manager uploaded images fine - small gifs for use in traffic lights. Following the upgrade to SP17, the upload button on the image manager appears to do nothing. I get no error, no warning and no entry in the image manager list.
Note This did work in the past. I can still see ones I've done about a month ago.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Richard

Hi
Have you tried with any other format like, 'jpg or jepg'? or its not working for any format?

Downloading Windows Update Packages for inclusion with System Image Manager

Is there a tool other than WSUS or SCCM that can download all Windows 8.1 updates for use with System Image Manager? I would like to deploy the updates along with the OS, custom drivers, and custom applications.
www.annabooks.com / www.seanliming.com / Book Author - Pro Guide to WE8S, Pro Guide to WES 7, Pro Guide to POS for .NET

Hi Sean Liming ,
The main purpose is to download all the updates for specific system version image ,right ?
I haven`t heared about such an official released tool to do this .
As for the API ,I have found a tool based on this API developed by our MSDN guys to install the updates ,but I am afraid it doesn`t meet your need.

How do I use copyprofile, image manager and create a wim file to Sysprep a reference Windows 8 computer.

Im trying to deploy a reference machine (configured) to other machines (exact or close image) with different hardware.
I have successfully used sysprep in out of the box, generalise, shutdown mode although i havent tried to deploy this to another device. Unfortunately it doesnt copy the profile to default.
I understand that I have to create an answer file using image manager based on that image, save it to a usb drive and attach this in the sysprep command line when sysprepping it.
My problem is I dont know how to easily capture an image of windows 8 into a wim file so that i can add this into image manager to create a answer file. Im also not sure what I have to do in image manager, is it a simple matter of creating and saving
the answer file or do i have to configure it to copy the profile specifically (theres only one account anyhow).
I also want to know if i have to attach the drivers or are all the standard drivers put into the sysprep image as standard. I would like the machine to be an exactly replica, same as doing a clone (but with the drivers for the new machine installed
so it will boot) same as doing a clone and then repair? If thats possible.
Any specific instructions on this would be helpful. I have read the microsft links but they are somewhat confusing.

I know this is a very late response but I thought I'd post for others who search.
The easiest way to create the .wim file is via WinPE, this guy's two YouTube videos explain the entire process in detail -

Here's a quick rundown from my notes:
WINPE
Create WinPE via imaging tools command prompt
copype amd64 c:\winpe
makewinpemedia /iso "c:\winpe" "c:\winpe\winpe64.iso"
UNATTEND
Open Windows System Image Manager
Configure unattend.xml
Save unattend.xml to sysprep folder
Create script and save it to sysprep folder to launch sysprep with unattend
@echo off
cd C:\Windows\System32\sysprep
Sysprep /oob /generalize /unattend:C:\Windows\System32\sysprep\unattend.xml
SYSPREP
C:\Windows\System32\Sysprep
Run as administrator
OOBE/Generalize
Shutdown
CONFIGURATION of WINPE
Set IP - netsh int ip set address "Local Area Connection" static 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
Set DNS - netsh int ip set dns name = "Local Area Connection" source = static addr = 192.168.1.4 validate = no
Map Network Name - net use z:
\\WindowsADK\reflex\images password /USER:domain.local\username
DISKPART
diskpart
list disk
select disk zero
list partition
select partition 2 (OS partition #)
Assign letter=S (assigns drive letter to partition)

Trying to Create a Catalog file using WSIM (Windows System Image Manager)

I have been looking online for a solution to htis problem for days and come up with nothing so any help would be amazingly helpful.

Image Management System

Is it possible to employ photoshop album starter edition as an image management system for our College staff? The system would require to be searchable over out Intranet and contain many images.

It depends exactly what you want to be able to do. I doubt very much whether you could really get the functionality you'd need, as it's not was PSA SE 3 was designed for.
The paid-for versions have slightly more flexibility, but they are not designed to be multi-user. There are other products designed for such purposes, but they tend to be a little costly.
