How does HP iLO and Dell iDRAC be configured in vCAC?

Hello folks,
While creating new Endpoints to configure physical severs, we have a few options: HP iLO, Dell iDRAC and Cisco UCS. When we create a new reservation with physical servers, does vCAC communicate with the underlying server automation software (such as HP SA or BSA or others) or directly talk to physical servers via the above end points ?
vCAC provides integration (not OOTB) with HP SA and I believe with BMC Blade logic as well so trying to understand how would vCAC communicate with physical servers?
It would be great to know the underlying process for physical servers configuration in vCAC.
thanks                  

I've done WIM based provisioning on both HP and Dell hardware, but can't speak to the HP SA and BSA integration that I believe is mentioned in the documentation. In the case of WIM to physical, the DEM contacts the iLO or iDRAC to initiate a power-on and leverages virtual media to mount the winpe ISO that contains the vCAC agent and configured with the vCAC server information. I put the ISO in the HP example on a webserver and for Dell it had to go on an NFS mount (I believe the guides say you can use CIFS, but I don't believe that is correct). The agent assumes DHCP is available on the network the physical server is connected too and retrieves the build instructions from the vCAC server and pulls down the WIM image from the path specified in the custom properties.

  • My iPhone was stolen and I have contacted the police who are using the meid number to locate.  How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back?

    My iPhone was stolen.  I used Find My iPhone app to lock it and display a message.  The phone has not connected to the internet to locate it.  I contacted the police and they have taken my meid number.  How does this work and what are my chances of getting the phone back?  Are there other ways the theif can use it.  I was told once they put in a new sim card and use it, whatever software the police have, it will show up.

    Honestly? In the US (I can't speak to other countries, though I doubt it works much differently in a lot of the world) The police took your report and filed it either in their computers or, on paper. They will now not think of this again. The only time it will cross anyones mind is if, in the course of entering information into evidence about items recovered or seized at a crime scene, the serial number of an iPhone that was found/seized happens to match yours, in which case you will be contacted.
    The police in the US can and will do nothing to 'blok' the phone and it's not worth their time to try and locate it unless you know for a fact that it was stolen by a big time drug lord, master criminal, or some other such prime target and they can get a court order to track the location of the phone in order to locate this individual for your own purposes.  If they do that, they'll probably keep him under surveilance for a year or so before they act.
    Basically, the police don't care about your phone. If they find it, they will give it back to you. They are not, however, going to go looking for it. They have better things to do.
    I'm sorry, but that's the way it is.

  • In Mac Mail on OS 10.5.8 I am receiving bogus emails which claim to be sent by people in my address book, but actually are not.  How does this happen and how can I correct this problem

    n Mac Mail on OS 10.5.8 I am receiving bogus emails which claim to be sent by people in my address book, but actually are not.  How does this happen and how can I correct this problem

    You said:
    I am receiving bogus emails which claim to be sent by people in my address book, but actually are not.
    ...and:
    Are you saying that my address book has not been hacked into?  That others are getting these email addresses from another source?
    This confuses me.  Are you saying that you are receiving bogus e-mails from some of your contacts, or are you saying that they are receiving bogus e-mails from you?
    If the latter, there are a number of reasons that people might be getting e-mail from you.  Malware, though technically possible, is extremely unlikely.  See Someone is sending messages from my e-mail address!
    If the former, that's rather unusual.  The only decent explanation I can think of is that a bunch of your Windows-using contacts got infected with something and their machines are being used to spam everyone in their contact lists, which would include you.

    ATP
    Types of Availability Check in Sales and Distribution
    Processing
    There are three types of availability check:
    _ Check on the basis of the ATP quantities
    _ Check against product allocation
    _ Check against planning
    The following SD-specific control features need to be maintained in Customizing:
    _ Checking group
    The checking group controls whether the system is to create individual or collective
    requirements in sales and shipping processing. In addition, a material block for the
    availability check with transfer of requirements can be set here. The checking group can
    also be used to deactivate the availability check. This option was created especially for
    the assembly order so that when the bill of material is exploded in the assembly order,
    the individual components, if necessary, can be classified as non-critical parts as far as
    procurement is concerned.
    The checking group specifies in combination with the checking rule the scope of the
    availability check. It is proposed in the material master record on the basis of the material
    type and the plant, and copied into the sales and distribution documents.
    _ Checking Rule
    You use the checking rule to control the scope of the availability check for each
    transaction in sales and distribution. You also specify whether the check should be
    carried out including or excluding replenishment lead time. The individual checking rules
    define by transaction, which stock and inward and outward movement of goods should
    be taken into account for the availability check.
    _ Schedule line category
    You can control with the schedule line category whether an availability check and
    transfer of requirements should be carried out in the sales documents. The possible
    settings for this at schedule line level are dependent on the settings in the requirements
    class which is determined from the requirements type of the material.
    _ Delivery item category
    The delivery item category can be used to control whether an availability check takes
    place in deliveries.
    Requirements type
    The various requirements are identified by their requirements type. The requirements
    type refers to the requirements class and its control features.
    _ Requirements Class
    The requirements class contains all control features for planning such as relevance for
    planning, requirements planning strategy and requirements consumption strategy. In
    addition, it is specified at a global level whether an availability check is to take place for
    the material in the sales and distribution documents on the basis of the ATP quantity
    (ATP = available to promise) and whether requirements are to be passed on. A finer
    degree of control can be obtained for sales documents using the schedule line category.
    Replenishment lead time is only included in the check performed on the basis of the
    ATP quantity.
    Prerequisites
    An availability check can only be carried out if the following prerequisites have been fulfilled:
    _ The control elements described above for the availability check must be maintained in
    Customizing for Sales and the relevant assignments made to the sales transactions
    _ The availability check must be switched on at requirements class level and - for the
    availability check in the sales documents - at schedule line category level
    A requirements type must exist by which the requirements class can be found
    _ A plant must be defined. It can either be proposed from the customer or material master
    record or can be entered manually in the document.
    _ A checking group must be defined in the material master record on the Sales/plant data
    screen in the Availability check field
    Configuring entries of the Availability Check
    IMGSDBasic fncsAvailability check and TORAvailability checkAvailability check with ATP logic or against planningDefine checking groups
    You can use SAP std checking groups of 01 for summarized reqts or 02 for daily reqts or u can create ur own.
    The columns total sales and total deliveries are selection options whereby u can configure a checking rule to sum up reqts to post to MRP either individually or by day or week.
    Column 5, Block qty; set this block if u want several users to be able to process the material simultaneously in different transactions without blocking each other. The No Check indicator is used when u want a material to not be relevant for an ATP check.
    Defining a material block for other users. The Block checkbox is an indicator that enables u to block the particular material from being checked for availability if it is already being checked at the same time by another user.
    Defining the default value for checking groups. However should no entry exist for the checking group in the material master record, one can set a default value per material type and plant.
    Controlling the availability check. In this section, u tell the system what stock on hand and what inward and outward movements of stock it must take into account when performing the availability check. These settings are based on the checking group that is assigned to the material master record and the checking rule that is predefined and assigned to the sd transaction. The carry out control for the availability check must be maintained for both the sales order and delivery.
    TOR
    IMG  SD  Basic fncs  Availability check and TOR  TOR
    A line item in the sales order creates a schedule line. The schedule lines in the sales order transfer the requirements through to MRP. You can select the docs on which you want the TOR to happen. For ex, not for quotations.
    The TOR aims to ensure the ordered materials are available for the requested delivery date. The TOR can be set for individual or for collective requirements (materials mastersales/plant view).
    The TOR is dependent on the following data:
    The reqts type, reqts class, checking group and schedule line category.
    The reqts type and class are determined in the strategy group (material masterMRP3)
    For TOR to be carried out, a few criteria need to be met:
    Plant assigned to line item level, schedule line category should be switched on at TOR, TOR must be switched on at the reqts class level, checking group must be defined and allocated to the material master record (sales/plant view in the availability check field)
    The reqts class is the controlling factor for the availability check and the TOR for all sd types.
    Configuring the TOR:
    1) Use std 041 reqts class or copy and rename it. Use the indicators to select if this reqts class must carry out an availability check and/or a TOR.
    2) Define the reqts types. A reqts type is allocated to a single reqts class and not vice versa. It is based on the item category and the MRP type of the material.
    3) Assign the rqts type to the relevant item category in the sales order and the MRP type found on the material master record.
    You can select an alternative search strategy where u assign the reqts type to item category and MRP type. Can select source as 0, 1 or 2. (1 = Item type and MRP type strategy).
    4) The TOR and Availability check can be selected/de-selected at the schedule line category level.
    5) Block qty confirmation in delivery blocks. This is used to block the reservation of the TOR from MRP.
    6) Maintain requirements for TOR. Requirements can be used to determine that the TOR to MRP is not carried out unless a number of conditions are met.
    Availability Overview = CO09  order qty, sd doc no, item no, requirements class.
    Stock requirements list = MD04  sd no or dly no, line item, schedule line placing the demand
    Stock overview = MMBE  total stock per company, then plant followed by storage location, and finally a breakdown per batch
    this is the customising as weel as the knowledge part.

    How does Index fragmentation and statistics affect the sql query performance
    Very simple answer, outdated statistics will lead optimizer to create bad plans which in turn will require more resources and this will impact performance. If index is fragmented ( mainly clustered index,holds true for Non clustred as well) time spent in finding
    the value will be more as query would have to search fragmented index to look for data, additional spaces will increase search time.

  • How does APEX create and save new files. What extension does it save in?

    Hi can someone help me with this question?
    How does APEX create and save new files. What extension does it save in?
    Cheers!
    VJ

    It's really too bad we can't see VJ's face when the concept sinks in. This is one of my favorite moments when teaching APEX classes. Most people love it, some people don't. If nothing else it really proves the power and performance of the Oracle database. Each page view can generate 40+ queries, yet on the average system this takes less than .04 seconds.
    Keep in mind there are no undocumented features or "Oracle Internals" that the APEX team uses to achieve this performance, just sound database design. With every feature they add they evaluate how it will be used and design the tables and indexes to most efficiently answer the query. Sometimes this means going against "purist" normalized principals.

  • How does the SDK and Reader handle printing with orientation?

    I have a document that I want to print, and it contains a portrait page on Page 1, and a landscape page on Page 2.  Acrobat Reader correctly prints these pages (with a single print job), and I'm assuming it's because of the auto-rotate option on the print dialog.  Is this a feature of Reader, the API, or how the printer handles the request.  I've tried printing this PDF just using the JAva API, but the orientation remain portrait for all pages.  How does the Adobe Acrobat API deal with mixed orientation pages?  Ignore the fact that I did my test printing with Java, because my question is whether or not the auto orientation is a feature of the UI, the SDK, or the printer (or a combination).

    Same as the current Ipod Video or "Classic" there is an option under settings to toggle between original aspect ratio or Full Screen.

  • I'm still confused!!! How does it work and what happens to...

    I have spoken to peeps in apple store as well as apple support but its like talking to geekbots. I have a mess of a music collection on at least two devices and a hard drive. If I purchase iTunes Match what exactly happens?
    Do I sign up on my m/mini then later log in from macbook and iT/Match will automatically find the additional songs that are on Macbook and upload them too increasing my overall collection?
    How does it improve the rate to 256? Is that only when lstening to streamed music or does it upgrade the songs on my hard drive?
    It feels like something that was thrown out there but not fully explained, no wonder I don't know a single person that has subscribed

    Yes. Be sure and do one computer at a time and do not enable iTM on any iOS devices until both computers are finished with the initial scans.

    If the song is "matched" then you delete the version that is your iTunes library, but not from the cloud, and download the matched file. Nothing is done automatically.

  • OnChange() event how does it work and what is the syntax

    hi,
    i have a field (County) on a form in a jsp page that needs to get all its values from the database and present it to the user also i have another field (year) this also needs to get all its values as a drop down from the database.
    i dont have any lib tag available to use and can't afford the time to set this up. so just have to script in jsp or use beans in jsp.
    my question is 2fold
    Q1. - i was thinking of having a DataAccess (dA) object to run a sql to select * distict couties ...
    also have another query in DataAccess select * Distinct year....
    and in the jsp instantiate the (dA) and iterate through and fill the select drop down box - how to code this syntax i'm not sure and if this is the correct approach or the only approach would appreciate some sample code that i can mess around with thanks.
    - is above approach best way of doing this. - also taking into account Q2.
    Q2 - when the user selects county then i need to fire a onChange event - probably using javascript but not sure how this works - bascially i need to then update the year drop down according to the below sql-
    again how is this possible - and is this the best approach or will it be too many calls to the database - especially consdering that the forms are all part of a search tool.
    SELECT     DISTINCT     v.year
    FROM          v_volumes     v
    WHERE          v.county     = <the selected county>
    OR          (v.county_reference     =
                   (SELECT     ca.county_reference
                    FROM          county_aliases     ca
                    ,          counties     c
                    WHERE     ca.county_reference_also_called     = c.county_reference
                    AND          c.county     = <the selected county>)
    ORDER BY v.year

    Sorry to rain on your parade, but its not going to be quite that simple.
    Populating a second dropdown depending on the first one, has been discussed quite in depth on this forum, I suggest you do a search to look at older posts.
    Javascript code cannot call java/database code from an onclick event.
    The best it can do is trigger a form submission, which reloads the page
    running any java/sql code that displaying the page entails.
    So onlick event on the first dropdown triggers a form submit, which loads the page with the correct values in the second dropdown.
    con: requires a page request
    The other approach is to download ALL possible values to the jsp page, and have javascript handle the swapping of values.
    pro: no page refresh needed
    con: must have all data available on the page. javascript is a bit more complicated.
    Hope this helps,

I just opened up AppleScript editor and poked around the Dictionary for Photos and saw we have access to GPS longitude,latitude and altitude. So by using a third party app/web page to get those values, an Apple Script could be used to batch add the info to selected photos. That being said, I'm really busy these days and lack time to write scripts and migrate to photos.
