How can the ZESM agent be upgraded?

On a workstation, there is a ZESM client (v3.5.0.144) running. This ZESM client
- was managed by a crashed ZESM server (v3.5.0.144)
- has a (forgotten) uninstall password set
Now I have installed and configured a new ZESM server (v3.5.0.160) and I want it to manage that workstation. How can I achieve this?
Possibility #1
- first I uninstall the old client then install the new one (v3.5.0.160)
- the fatal problem: I can't uninstall the old client since I can't provide a valid uninstall password
Possibility #2
- I upgrade the old client by installing the new client (via SETUP.EXE) on top of the old one
- the fatal problem: this is not supported by SETUP.EXE (it tells me that I must uninstall the old client first)
Possibility #3
- I create an MSI installation package with the upgrade option enabled
- I have used the following command: setup /a /V"STUPGRADE=1" [based on chapter 9.2 of the Installation Guide (install.pdf)]
- the fatal problem: the MSI installation package is not willing to perform the upgrade either: it behaves in the same way as SETUP.EXE (by telling me me that I must uninstall the old client first)
So my question concerning possibility #3:
- how can I generate an MSI package that is willing to upgrade the old client?

run the upgrade with with the setup.exe but do not do a /a.
So setup /V"STUPGRADE=1"

  • How can the 8.5 Crystal (upgraded version) be installed on a Win7 64-bit PC

    My client has bought a laptop with Windows 7 64-bit.  They are trying to install CR 6.0 so they can install CR8.5 witch is an upgrade, but they seem to be running into a problem.  Is this a possible and how do you do it?

    In a nut shell; it can't. [This|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=56787567] wiki has info for supported operating systems by version of CR.
    Note that CR 8.5 is not even there... As per the wiki, your only option is to upgrade to CR XI R2 (11.5).

    I lost my logic 8 pro serial number. I can't find the booklet that comes with the serial number. How can retrieve this? I upgraded from logic pro 7. I changed hard drives and now it keeps asking for the serial number. But I can't find it. Where can I request it? Thanks!

    If you still have the receipt or other proof of purchase, you can ask Apple to send you the serial. Otherwise, bad luck mate.. Good news is, you can now buy Logic Pro 9 from App Store for just 199 USD

    An answer will require more specific information of the problems you are experiencing Mpittas2.
    In general, if you installed any third party anti-virus utilities, get rid of them. They can cause problems like this.
    There is no need to post your question multiple times. If you don't get an answer right away give it some time, a few hours at least, and please deselect your caps lock key. This will increase the likelihood of receiving competent assistance.

  • MacBook Pro2012 : How can you get hard drive upgraded in Netherlands without losing warranty?

    My MacBook Pro (2012) hard drive is almost full, Apple refuses to provide hard drive upgrade service, how can you get hard drive upgraded in Netherlands without losing warranty?

    Dear Ralph, and All
    My MBP is indeed non-retina.
    I also have Apple care support for 3 years
    I was in touch with Apple suport since last week. Response I got on Phone was pretty astounding (waiting email confirmation). They say following
    - Apple support does not provide such service of upgrading hard drive
    - Doing it yourself means you will lose warranty (due to nature of operation one would need to perform on the computer)
    - None of authorised delars will provide such a service
    So as such there apparantly is no way to get your hard drive upgraded without losing warranty.
    Leaves me a bit perplexed
    I do understand MBP retina (or iPAD / iPhones) are manufactured in way that makes it technically impossible to upgrade certain parts. But why non-retina MBP?
    What do you all think? is this reasonable? is this what a MBP customer would expect?
    Really appreaciate the quick responses i have recieved from you and others on this forum.
    Many thanks

    I'd recommend that you check for Mac User Group(s) in Orange County.  That's where you'd likely find a diehard Mac fanatic who might want to add your 6500 to his/her collection.  Even if you got nothing for it, it would be better than e-cycling it.  I upgraded my 6500/275 with what was a "large" hard drive at the time (15 GBs), maxed the memory at 128 MBs, installed the 512K L2 cache card, a better ATI Rage Pro PCI graphics card, a USB PCI card, and an internal 56K modem.  With it running OS 9.1, it did all of the pre-OS X stuff I needed it to do.  As I previously mentioned, it's a nice-sounding MP3 player.  Internet Explorer 5.1.7 (the final release from 2001) kept it useful for surfing the web up until 2005, when it became too outdated/incompatible with many web sites.  Unfortunately, the demands of the internet and the need for a modern browser, as well as faster processing to digest it all, are what retired many older Macs from active duty.  So my (2) 6500s and (3) 6400s (same tower design) sit in storage.  There is one concern that I'll pass along: The motherboard has a 4.5-volt alkaline battery, that's a small, black plastic cube, secured in place by velcro.  If your 6500 has been disconnected from electricity for a long time, the battery will undoubtedly be dead.  Unlike the many Apple computers that used a small ½AA lithium battery (that I've never seen leak when completely dead), the 6500's battery can and usually does start leaking.  Because the motherboard sits vertically oriented on its side edge when installed, the leaking battery will drip alkaline solution down the board, corroding any components in it path.  I've seen motherboards ruined from this.  If you're going to give it away or sell it, you might want to pull the motherboard (remove the two machine screws on the rear I/O panel, next to the pull tabs).  Slide out the board and unplug the battery's small connector (has red & black wires), then lift up on the battery, while holding down the "toothed" velcro mount with something non-conductive, like a popsicle stick.  Once it's free, dispose of the battery.  If you're interested, a replacement can be purchased for about $5-$7 from battery specialty retailers - it's a Rayovac 870 or 871.  Even if you don't replace it, removing one that will eventually leak is a good idea, (hopefully) before any damage is done.

    how can the list on the left side in the day-view of iCal 5 be hidden, so that the computer-screen only shows the graphic-bars (right side)?
    Thanks a lot for your help

    While creating a device category i'm getting an error "enter a valid division via eg01,how can the error be overcome?

    Neha,
    you can do in two ways.
    1. Enter a valid Division which you configured in the system.
    2. Remove the Division as required field. However I suggest it should have a valid division. Why can not you check with your Functional owner?

  • Once PO is released against a PR, how can the PR be deleted or modified by

    Once PO is released against a PR, how can the PR be deleted or modified by the Requisitioner. Any / deletion of a PR,
    Note: Our Req No one Can PR delete if it have converted in po,

    hI,
    Note 521174 - ME52N: Deletion of a PReq despite PO
    Check this note is applicable or not at your end
    Summary
    Reason and Prerequisites
    You create a purchase requisition and a purchase order is generated from it. Afterwards, you change the purchase requisition by setting the deletion indicator. The system generates a warning message that a purchase order already exists for this purchase requisition. However, the deletion of such a purchase requisition should be prevented. Therefore, the system should generate the error message 06152.
    Other terms
    ME52, 06152.
    Reason and Prerequisites
    The warning message does not suffice.
    Solution
    After you implemented the correction, you can set set the message via Customizing. If you customize the message as an error message, a deletion is no longer possible. However, the message is not output as an error message in order to block a further processing of the purchase order. This only appears as an information message.

    How can the number of computers used for an iTunes account be updated? I had to reinstall itunes on a new hard  drive it and counted as an additional computer, against my 5 total computers.

    wait until you reach the limit of five authorized machines. then, once a year, you will be able to deauthorize all machines, following which you can reauthorize those computers you currently use/have access to.

    Two questions: How can I use my dual monitors on my G5 Mac?
    How can the image in "Develop" be made to look like what it will print, just as it is
    done in Photoshop with view>proof setup.

    Still wondering what tool is available in LR 1.1 to "view proof"
    As in Photoshop CS 3, and previous versions of PS, in view I can
    choose the custom .icc profile of the printer, to view what the final

    What tool is available in LR 1.1 to do the same?
    Equipment: Mac OS 10.4.10; dual monitors; Epson Pro 9600 and SPR

  • How can the payload of a XI message be normalized to the RFC-XMLuFF1F

    How can the payload of a XI message be normalized to the RFC-XML
    format? Is it possible to remove unwanted XML-Namespace declarations
    from a RFC-XML document?

    While sending a message to a RFC-Adapter receiver channel a error
    is thrown during RFC-XML-document parsing. The RFC-XML document looks
    like it has the correct RFC-XML format but there are some additional
    XML elements (e.g. XML-Namespace declarations). These elements can't
    be understood by the RFC-XML parser of the RFC-Adapter. This parser
    only is suitable for correct RFC-XML documents (like created by a
    RFC-Adapter sender channel or the SAP JCO).To remove the unneeded elements from the RFC-XML document a message
    mapping within the Integration Server can be used. The attached file
    rfcnormalizer.jar contains a XSLT-Stylesheet which can be used for
    this purpose.

  • How can the symbol and non-English diacritical marking, etc accessed with combinations of letters and functional keys prior to Snow Leopard be achieved in Snow Leopard?

    How can the symbol and non-English diacritical marking/punctuation pallet, available in pre-Snow Leopard OSes with various combinations of letter or number keys and functional keys, be accessed in Snow Leopard?  Those pre-Snow Leopard versions worked on the fly as one was making text in any pedestrian application and its native font (Mail, Text Edit, for example).  One didn't need to dig around in font libraries, change font preferences, etc.

    > One didn't need to dig around in font libraries, change font
    > preferences, etc.
    It hasn't worked like that since the Early Chalcolithic (ie, System 7 or thereabouts).
    You've already got plenty of answers. Briefly (and grossly oversimplified),
    - Mac OS X conforms to a standard known as Unicode; in its current incarnation, it defines over 100k characters.
    - A keypress is translated into a character according to the current keyboard layout.
    - The graphic representation of a character (ie, glyph), is provided by the current font.
    - If a font lacks a glyph for the requested character, either another font will be automatically chosen (Mac OS X text engine), or some form of feedback (empty box, question mark, etc) will be used.
    - To inspect the actual key codes, use a utility such as Key Codes.
    - To inspect the current keyboard layout, invoke Keyboard Viewer.
    - To inspect the full complement of glyphs of a font, invoke Character Viewer (also accessed with the Special Characters command).
    (Remember that both these utilities are resizable and zoomable -- you can enlarge them to a comfortable viewing size, then zoom out to see more of the screen for your original task.)
    - For a more detailed look, use a utility such as UnicodeChecker.
    - The default keyboard layout depends on your Mac OS X localisation.
    (Keep in mind that there's no need to stick with the default layout; choose whichever one makes sense to you, given your language, habits, and proclivities. Mac OS X comes bundled with quite a few, including some obviously designed for the huddled masses of refugees from the Dark Side, who, in their wretched ignorance, have the unmitigated gall of labelling our native ways "really uncomfortable". Oh well, this, too, shall pass.
    If none of the supplied keyboard layouts fits your needs -- if, for instance, you write your emails in Etruscan -- go out on the 'net, you'll find quite a few. Or write your own with Ukulele, it's not really all that difficult.)
    - Use Keyboard Viewer to familiarise yourself with the current layout and to enter the odd character; but, to be proficient, you should learn your layout to the point that KV is no longer needed.
    - Use Character Viewer to enter the odd character not available in the current keyboard layout.
    Neither Keyboard Viewer nor Character Viewer are effective tools for more extensive needs, eg, for writing and editing bilingual or multilingual texts. In such a case, you should enable the respective keyboard layouts and switch between them with a keyboard shortcut.
    A few interesting layouts bundled with Mac OS X have already been mentioned. Let me add three.
    - Dvorak: several layouts based on the Dvorak keyboard. It is claimed that the latter is more productive and lessens RSI risk.
    - US Extended: based on QWERTY, it offers a more extensive set of diacritics (eg, caron, breve) via dead keys.
    - Unicode Hex Input: also based QWERTY, it allows input by Unicode codepoint (in hexadecimal), so it's the most extensive layout of all; eg, to enter the character "Parenthesized Number Twelve" (U+247F), hold down Option, type "247f", release Option.
