Hi, We are running domino application in windows server 2008r2 standard virtual machine, we are facing High RAM utilization issue, but there is no such process are running. Machine is running in ESXI host, most of the time it shows high RAM utilization.
We upgraded the ram from 6 to 8 GB, but still facing the issue,
Where as other VMs working fine.
Need a help to find out the issue.
Hi Sathish sampath,
You can use Resource monitor and Task Manager->Performance to monitor the RAM memory utilization, I also recommend you to download the
RAMMap to get more detailed memory information.
For more detailed information to troubleshoot this issue, please also refer to this thread:
memory performance problem. Please help.
You can also choose to post your monitor picture to help us to troubleshoot.
I holp this helps.

Cisco SG 200-08 and Windows Server 2008R2 as Radius
Hello. I'm having some issues using Cisco SG 200-08 switches for 802.1X authentication. I would be very grateful for some help:
1. Will Cisco implement any other way to authenticate supplicant port other than EAP-MD5 method? I'm using those switches to implement 802.1X authentication in my network and my RADIUS server is a Windows Server 2008R2 machine. I've actually had to make a registry hack (instructions from: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/winserverNAP/thread/e801bdac-9347-4efb-9d7c-bcf4d64aa927 ) to enable MD5 on WS2008R2. I've alse read that this method is old and insecure and everyone suggest using some safer authentication method but I simply can't. Can someone tell me please will Cisco implement any other authentication methods in those switches or should I buy any other hardware.Hello Scott
Thanks a lot for your answer, i have followed the document as example and i had some problems matching the network policy on the NPS due to the NPS has connection request policies and network policies for setting up, understanding that one is for authentication and the other one for authorization, additionaly, other issue was when duplicated the certificate template, i had to use the certificate issued by default on the CA for requesting a new certificate for the NPS Server.
After days looking for figuring up this issues, it has worked well. As you told me, the configuration on the Wireless Controller was the easy part, the issue come up when i started working on the NPS as Radius Server.
One more thing, for applying FlexConnect or HREAP for the Remote APs that i have distributed on my branch offices, should i use other WLAN configured on the Wireless Controller or with the same WLAN use for all the user is enough applying the parameters for getting work with HREAP?
I would appreciate any help fot getting work with HREAP.
Thanks a lot.

Windows Server 2008R2 running Remote Desktop Services reports printer process does not exist when installing PDF printer, And when Installing network printers from the domain controller it reports it cannot connect to printer. I can ping all
network devices. I can connect to the internet.
On boot I get a netlogon 5719 error followed by service control manager errors 7023,7001 and a group policy error 1129.
Clients can connect to the remote application and RDP operates to connect to the server internally and externally.
The domain controller is another server 2008r2 box. I have scoured the internet but have not found any solutions that work yet.Hi,
After referring to your post, it can be identified that the issue which you are facing is mostly due to some network issue in your environment. Please recheck your network connection issue between computer and domain controller.
Can you able to ping with IP address and also with fully qualified name of a domain controller in the users' and computers' domain. If it fails states that name resolution issue with computer and domain controller. Are you using MS DHCP Relay agent then there’s
available Hotfix for the particular Event ID. Please go through this KB 2459530 to fix the error event ID.
As per the net logon error 5719 which you are facing states that the client component of Netlogon was unable to locate a DC for the domain it was trying to perform an operation against. Below is one of the reason. If this is being logged on a DC and the event
refers to the DC's own domain, something might be preventing the client component of Netlogon from starting a network session (to itself or to another DC in the domain). The following event 7001 & 7023 states start & stop operation service. Please
go through beneath article for more details.
1. Event ID 5719 is logged when you start a computer
2. Netlogon 5719 and the Disappearing Domain [Controller]
3. Event ID 1129 — Microsoft-Windows-GroupPolicy
Hope it helps!

Office 2013 windows 'pop-under' when run as remote apps on Server 2008R2 from Windows 7 clients
We have an environment with Windows 7 clients running Office 2013 via RDS on Windows Server 2008R2.
When users double click emails from Outlook, they 'pop-under', forcing the user to relocate the window which has fallen behind the application's primary window, leaving behind a slight redraw of what is supposed to be the pop-up window. Users also experience
difficulty opening application menu/help items and any other dialogue boxes in any/all of the other Office 2013 apps we've deployed via RDS.
This issue persists only on Win7 PCs (WinXP does not exhibit this behaviour). The RDP clients range from 6.2.92 to 6.1.7601
We have applied the hot-fixes applicable to all of the following KB articles:
- KB983533 (failed / update not applicable)

For the AD FS Wizard how do I configure a certificate so I can run WCF applications on my server
For the AD FS Wizard how do I configure a certificate so I can run WCF applications on my server.
Certificate Status: This CA Root certificate is not trusted because it is not in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities store.
In IIS under Server Certificates:
IIS Express Development Certificate
It will not let me "Complete Certificate Request" because I do not have a ".cer" certificate file.
How do I get ".cer" file for this Certificate or maybe make one in IIS 8.0 not Express?You need to make the certificate trusted by adding it in the Trusted Root Certification Authorities
store using Certificates snap-in. You can use Certificates
snap-in in MMC to export the certificate in a .cer file.

When we were running in Server 2003 on ECC 6.0 I was able to use the Sleep program just fine in the same manner. I have found out that sleep is not available in server 2008. It was replaced with timeout.
After an update to EHP4 and moving to Windows Server 2008R2, Is there any pre-work that needs to be done on the SAP or Windows side before we can run external programs?

No - this is no more true like that since Windows 2008, it's a bit more complex:

What do I need to install and what changes to the web.config do I need to make to have my reports continue to display via my website?First, you need to download the new SDK - it's no longer available as part of the Crystal Reports install.
To do this go here: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-7824. Download and install the latest version of the "Install Executable" to get integration into Visual Studio. The other installs are the runtime installs - select the appropriate runtime install for your environment.
Now you have to upgrade your application to VS 2010 or newer. There are some changes to the SDK, so you can't just replace the assemblies in your existing application's configuration. DO NOT compile as "any CPU", you need to specifically target either x86 (32-bit runtime) or x64 (64-bit runtime). If you target the 32-bit runtime (which will run on a 64-bit server!) and you're using ODBC, you'll need to create 32-bit ODBC connections on the server. In any case, when working in VS, you'll need 32-bit ODBC connections for testing.

Windows Server 2008r2 Enterprise Licensing
As windows server 2008r2 enterprise edition allow 4 Virtual machines. can i run single windows server 2008r2 enterprise edition license in multiple virtual machines in Hyper-V Enterprise ?
Shall I create ADC,Antivirus, Lotus Domino & Windows File Server on each instance ?
Hi I am not able to extract KB977384-DEU. It asks to password. I need a help to get latest password of it.For licensing questions you should always ask a trained Microsoft licensing specialist. You can find them either at your Microsoft reseller or Microsoft itself.
www.microsoft.com/licensing. Relying on volunteers that respond in a technical forum is not a good source of legal advice.
So, free advice being worth everything you paid for it, the virtualization rights that come with Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise license is the right to run up to four virtual operating system instances of Windows Server. Since it is a Windows
Server license, it can only license Windows Server. Any other operating system must be licensed according to the vendor's licensing requirements. The is no limit to the number VMs you can create. There is no limit to the number of VMs you
can run, up to what the host will support.
As for applications within the VMs, you have to license those according to the vendors' licensing requirements. The Windows Server license applies to the physical host. Application software may be licensed completely differently.
As for extracting a KB. Is that a hot fix that you requested from Microsoft? Those generally include a password in an associated email message. Most likely if you request it again, you will get another password for the new download.
And, the passwords have a time limit on them, so if the time limit has passed and you still had the original password, it still would not work.

I have done a windows full server backup on to an external Seagate HDD on a Dell PowerEdge T110 II Server running Windows Server 2008 R2
I want to clone this and do a Bare Metal Restore on an identical server at home which has Windows Server 2008 R2 on it.
I boot from the Windows DVD provided, select repair however windows Server 2008 R2 will not find the image of the Seagate drive. The Seagate drive can be seen on the server otherwise. I guess there are options to load the driver, but I don't see them.
Please help. Kind of stuck here
ThanksI am using a windows server 2008R2 disk to boot up. Both the servers have windows server 2008R2 on them. I have two licenses for each of the servers. I want to use the server at home as a backup server in case the server in office goes down. I used
windows server backup to backup the server at work to a portable USB hard drive. I bought the hard drive home and want to clone the server at work. I heard bare metal restore is the best way to do this. So I booted the server at home with the windows server
2008 r2 disk that I have and clicked repair. I had attached my seagate portable drive to the usb port so that the server could find the image of the server at work, however the server cant find the hard drive or the server image. Is it a problem with my usb
hard drive? Do I need a specific type of usb hard drive to do server image backups?
If I let my server at home boot regularly and it comes up, it can see the image on the hard drive so I dont know how to do the bare metal restore. I know it can be done becuase my IT guy did it when he set up both the servers. I just want to periodically
clone them so make sure the server at home is updated with the settings of the server at work.
Thanks for any help here -
HP Office Jet Pro 8600 Plus 910 n printer driver does not install on a windows server 2008R2 OS

Hello dawnp,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue with installing the printer on to your Windows 7 computer.
I suggest that we start off by running the HP Print and Scan Doctor. If the Doctor fails, please let me know where it failed as well as any error codes you may see.
Write me back when you have time and I will be happy to help.

System Cache Issues with Windows Server 2008R2
Hi,
I'm trying to deploy Java version 1.5.0 (build 1.5.0_14-b03) on a new Windows Server 2008R2 installation. I want to use the system cache feature and have used it successfully on Windows XP workstations and Windows 2003 servers in the past. I even got it to work on a test Win Server 2008R2 server earlier this week. But on my production machine I can't get the system cache to configure.
I installed Java as usual and it installed into the Program Files(x86) directory. I copied my deployment files to the c:\windows\sun\java\deployment directory.
Deployment.config contains:
deployment.system.config=file\:/c\:/windows/sun/java/deployment/deployment.properties
Deployment.properties contains:
deployment.user.cachedir=C\:\\Program Files\\HCN
deployment.user.cachedir.locked
deployment.system.cachedir=C\:\\Program Files\\HCN
deployment.javaws.shortcut="NEVER"
deployment.javaws.autodownload="NEVER"
Not sure what's missing here especially since it worked fine the other day.
Both of these servers are virtual, VMware ESX 3.5 and were created from the same template. Only real difference is the production system will be a XenApp application server so it has XenApp installed.
Error I'm getting is that in Javaws it reports that the system cache is not configured and every time I launch my application it has to download from the source because we are deleting the local profiles when the user logs out.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
Linn> I just wanted to know whether there will be any sort of communication or support issues between PROD and DEVE systems with such diverse configurations.
No.
You could even use HP-UX on the DEV system - as long as you're able to share a common directory to ensure transporting it's not a problem. Transports are OS and DB independent.
However, memory management and security in Windows 2008 changed significantly, you may have to use different configurations for W2K8 vs. W2K3.

we run several Windows Server 2008r2 SP1 Enterprise as VM on two Stratus Avance xenserver based VM hosts. On both hosts we run a VM as file-server, RDS server including a little bit of DFS traffic. the underling physical machines are Intel based S5520UR
with plenty full of needed resources, running since 2012 more or less without problems.
Recently we on both physical hosts the STOP error 0x0000001e (0xffffffffc0000005, 0xfffff8800a07d7f0, 0x0000000000000000, 0x0000000000000000).
This has happended now twice and we have no clue or idea why the Stop error arrives now were the VM is running for month without such an error.
We have tried to analyze the problem with WnDbg and the result reported: Probably caused by : mrxsmb10.sys ( mrxsmb10!MRxSmbDeferredCreate+18a )
We have searched for a solution and have identified some hotfixes which could be related to our problem
Hotfix http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2521220/en-us
and / or
Hotfix http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2764302/en-us
The latter one matches the typical use of the VMs in question, file-server function and a flat file based database system with corresponding file I/O. (However, no dramatic system load and approx. 20 concurrent users on the system.)
The file NTFS.sys in the folder System32 are with a newer date and version as the version from the hotfix and we are not sure if this would be a good idea to replace it with the hotfix version.
As we are a small cap company we could not test the outcome of such a change of essential OS files and we tend to stay away from this approach. On the other hand we have a high pressure to solve this issue as we have to rely on the function of this core
system.
WinDbg points us towards mrxsmb10.sys as a possible root cause, but my believe is limited and we have not the knowledge to understand the output of the memory dump file. (mrxsmb was over the last 15 years always a difficult “thing”!)
Would someone so kind to point us to some useful steps or direct us to any helpful advise?

HTML5 Content not accessible on Windows Server 2008r2
Hello,
I created a small Tutorial within Captivate that should be viewed via a Webpage, so I exported it as HTML 5. It runs fine on all browsers except:
Internet Explorer on Windows Server 2008r2. (Only the loading gif is displayed)
This seems to be a common problem ("HTML5 on Windows Server" gives me alot of google results). The solution for this is to activate "Desktop experience" on Windows server (I tried it and it worked). The thing is: we can't ask all users to install this feature.
Is there a possibility to make the HTML5 content run on these machines? Is there a setting in Captivate or something I can change in the exported files? (The Tutorial doesn't rely on multimedia to heavily, so If there is a possibility to deactivate certain functions this might help)
Best regards
CP
Edit: There seems to be a problem with the Audio function (Debugger says "not implemented" at "return new audio"). there is no audio in my project, but it still includes huge load of audio-related code in the CPM.jsHello,

Windows Server 2008r2 Printer Sharing
Hi folks,
I have a Windows Server 2008r2 set up as my workstation and I'd like to share the printer with my wife's MacBook. I've set up Printing Services on WS2008r2 and enabled IPP, LPD and everything else I could think of.
The printer sharing works, our other laptop which is Win7 can use it normally, but setting up the share on a Mac is a whole new kettle of fish.
I couldn't get it to connect via IPP, Mac keeps insisting on port 631 even though IPP is running on port 80 here. I have no idea what to put into the address field, if I copy/paste the URL the Mac doesn't recognise it. If I just put in the server name it's happy but insists on connecting to port 631.
Next came LPD which seems to work, Mac connects to the server and picks up the printer. Which brings me to the next problem. If I use standard generic postscript driver then nothing happens, printer gets switched on on the server and stops. An event log entry reports an LPD error:
"The Line Printer Daemon (LPD) service received commands in an invalid format from 192.168.2.106 and refused the print job. This can occur if the Line Printer Remote (LPR) client is incompatible with the Windows LPD service and Request for Comments (RFC) 1179. Try printing using a different LPR client."
The printer is a Canon Pixma iP5200R. If I switch the printer options from generic postscript to a Canon printer it will print but it only uses about 60% of the space, so everything is shrunk on the page. It does print the full content of the page, just makes everything smaller. I managed to get this far by selecting one of the BJC (Bubblejet) models from the drop-down list.
I've installed Canon's driver for iP5200 from their site but it's not available anywhere on the Mac. How do I tell the Mac to use a different driver?
I feel I'm getting close to fixing this, but now the problem is in Macland and I'm not too familiar with it.
Anyone got any suggestions? Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!I'm going to apologize first because I don't have a real solution and my post will sound negative, but my experience may give some insight.
My experience is that Apple didn't get Windows printing "done right" until 10.5. Prior to that, I could never print to a Canon S800 printer attached to a Vista Ultimate machine. With the printer attached to a XP machine, I could print, but it would often fail. (Just no output and OSX saying printer was offline.) This was with a G3 B&W with 10.3 and a iMac with 10.4. And like you, I did try the IPP and LPD settings but just never got a usable setup.
Then I got a Macbook Pro with 10.5. Printing worked fine straight out of the box to the same S800 printer on Vista. Mac Mini with 10.5 worked also. Upgraded both to 10.6 and printing still works. Even a clean reload of 10.6 on the Macbook, Windows printing is fine. Also to a Epson R280 attached to the same Vista machine.
Windows 2008, having more in common with Vista and Win7, I'd guess that you may be having similar issues to me. I don't know of any fix, other than 10.5. If you have a friend with a newer Mac, then you can test it. (Otherwise, if you can upgrade your Mac to 10.5 or 10.6. But testing with a friend's Mac would save the cost of buying an OSX upgrade if it didn't work.)
Like I said, no real solution, other than possibly upgrading to 10.5/10.6. So maybe just a pointer to a different line of thinking. Good luck!
