How to add disk partition wizard in MDT 2013?

Is it possible to add a step in a task sequence or otherwise, so the installation procedure will popup a disk partition wizard, just like when installing Windows 7 from a DVD?

I agree that funky partition schemes for Disk 0 is not recommended. Nevertheless it is not rare for our IT dep. to re-install PC's with dual boot configurations and/or data partitions on Disk 0. So instead of backing up everything prior to re-installing
Windows, it would come in handy to be able to dynamically choose which partition to install Windows on.
I really miss a more elaborate guide on how to implement that wizard page, you gave me a link to, but it really does not seem to be what I need after all.
Do you have any comments on this idea: I have added DaRT to my Windows PE. Using the File Explorer I get access to the partitions and their names, enabling me to rename whatever partition (i.e. "WinOS"). What if I made separate Task Sequence(s)
and added a check for which partition with a given name ("WinOS") to install Windows on? Then I could use File Explorer, rename the partition I want to install Windows on ("WinOS"), and thus keeping everything intact except that partition?

How to add a partition for Windows XP

Hi, I recently received my T410 with Windows 7 pre-installed. I would like it to be a dual-boot system for Windows 7 and XP.
I had hoped to be able to create a new primary partition after shrinking the Win7 partition. However, it looks like my system already came with three primary partitions. They are
Volume, Layout, Type, File System, Status
Lenovo_Recovery (Q, Simple, Basic, NTFS, Healthy (Primary Partition)
SYSTEM_DRV, Simple, Basic, NTFS, Healthy (System, Active, Primary Partition)
Windows7_OS (C, Simple, Basic, NTFS, Healthy (Boot, Page File, Crash Dump, Primary Partition)
1. Does SYSTEM_DRV need to be a primary partition?
2. Since it looks like SYSTEM_DRV is just the system drivers, is it possible for me to either (a) change that partition to a logical drive partition or (b) move those files to a folder in the Windows7_OS partition? Then I am assuming that will free up a primary partition for XP and I can carry on with installing XP on that partition.
3. If yes to question 2, what steps do I need to take to do either (a) or (b)?
The steps I am currently following for making it a dual-boot system are here: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/8057-dual-boot-installation-windows-7-xp.html, and http://www.sevenforums.com/installation-setup/67236-problems-dual-boot-win-7-win-xp.html. They don't address they case where the computer already has three primary partitions, unfortunately; and I figure this is more of a Lenovo question rather than a question for that forum.
Thanks for your help.

not to put you off on what you're about to do, but depending on what version of 7 you have, pro and ultimate have an option to install a full copy of xp pro sp3 in a virtual machine within windows 7. it will integrate windows 7 files into it so you can access them. and it it actually is a full version of xp. you allocate system memory for it to run and you can either have it set to shut down which will free up the resources or hibernate which won't. although it loads much faster from hibernate.
before you do anything, i would burn restore discs in case something gets screwed. make sure you have restore points set.

Partitioning of table in oracle 10g - How to Add

Hello Friends ,
Hope you are all fine and doing great.
By the way - I have a quick question on oracle 10g Partitioning of tables...
I have a table with partition as stated below ..
CREATE TABLE X_ACC_ASSETS_GPC_AGG
X_ACC_ASSETS_GPC_AGG_RK NUMBER(10) NOT NULL,
X_AS_OF_DT DATE NOT NULL,
ACCOUNT_RK NUMBER(10) NOT NULL,

My question is :
1) How to add a partition say P201201 ..
Since I have already stated PARTITION PMAX can I still add partition?
2) Can I add partition even though the table has data ?
==========================
I tried to add partition ..say
ALTER TABLE X_ACC ADD PARTITION P201201 VALUES LESS THAN

but getting the error ..
"partition bound must collate higher than that of the last partition"
Thanks/kumar

You have partitions
200712
200812
200912
201012
201112
PMAX.
so your condition for partition p201112 is '201012-01-01' to '201112-01-01' i.e the values between these two dates will be in partition p201112. and then everything else will be in PMAX. So now you are splitting your pmax.
alter table X_acc split partition pmax at ( to_date('2012-01-01 00:00:00','YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS', 'NLS_CALENDAR=GREGORIAN') )
into (partition p201201, partition pmax); The condition you have to change. I just showed as an example. It could be the date range between two dates or it could be greater than a date value. It is upto how you want this new partition.

Install SCCM Client Post Install via MDT 2013

I want to know best practice on how to install the SCCM client via MDT 2013 as a post install task sequence? Im deploying a lot of machines via MDT offline USB....
Is it grabbing the ccmsetup folder and using the following command line?
ccmsetup.exe /noservice /MP:<insert> SMSSITECODE=<insert> smscachesize=10000

There's no such thing as a "best practice" for most real-world tasks; real-world is different for everyone which means you need to know the details and choose the right things for your environment.
You need to run the command-line that is appropriate for your environment just like you would for any manual install.
Without knowing any details about your environment, I would add the SMSMP and FSP properties to the above command-line. If this is truly an offline install, you shouldn't use /mp though, you should use /source and point it at the client directory.

Trying to add my own contentplaceholder in sharepoint 2013 masterpage

hi all,
I'm new in sharepoint 2013.I'm trying to add my own contentplaceholder in sharepoint 2013 masterpage( near search textbox). like <asp:ContentPlaceHolder ID="PlaceHolderMain" runat="server"></asp:ContentPlaceHolder> and
<asp:Content runat="server" ContentPlaceHolderID="PlaceHolderTopMenu1">   </asp:Content> in my layout. but its not working, nothing is rendered when i refresh my page. I also tried to add code generated
by snippet galary and put it into html page. That also did not work. can you please help me how to add my own contentplaceholder in sharepoint 2013 masterpage.

Thanks a lot for your response Jason, it looks like the proper way to add the Custom place holder to the top header section of the master page.
So that you know, I have created the master page by converting an HTML file in SharePoint 2013 design manager. Following the links, added following two block of code in the master page:
Following code between<mso:CustomDocumentProperties> tag of master page:
<mso:ContentPlaceHolderHashPlaceHolderTopMenu1 msdt:dt="string">87884212</mso:ContentPlaceHolderHashPlaceHolderTopMenu1>
and in body part:
<div class="container">
               
                
                
                
                  master page content
                
                
                
</div>
And added the following code in layout page using that layout page.
Following code between<mso:CustomDocumentProperties> tag of layout page:
<mso:ContentPlaceHolderHashPlaceHolderTopMenu1 msdt:dt="string">87884212</mso:ContentPlaceHolderHashPlaceHolderTopMenu1>
and in body part

         <div> Layout content </div>
         
Unfortunately, the page created from the master page, is not adding any placeholder beside the search control.
Any idea what I am doing wrong?
Thanks again for your response in advance.

How to install OS to Disk 1 Partition 1 with MDT 2012

Hello.
Sorry for my poor English.
I got some pc which have more than one harddisk.I need to deploy windows 7 pro to the second disk.
So,At fist ,I need to format the fisrt partition in seconde disk,i disable the Partition And Format sequence and i add a new sequence name Format Disk 1 Partition 1 to do a command： diskpart.exe %scriptroot%\d1p1.txt。the content of d1p1.txt
is below:
select disk 1
select partition 1
format fs=ntfs quick
assign letter=c
active
exit
but it is fail to do this,because the letter c had sign to the first disk partition 1.If i change the letter in d1p1.txt to another one ,the unattend.xml will not work! I had try to use another diskpart script to remove
the letter of first disk partition 1
select disk 0
select partition 1
remove
select disk 1
select partition 1
format fs=ntfs quick
assign letter=c
active
exit
it will work.But when i login to the windows first time,i will get a error:"Unable
to find the SMS Task Sequencer and the Tasksquence stop.
any one can help me? thanks

If you want to keep the original partition, I would recommend using the client task sequence in a "refresh" mode, start
\\server\deploymentshare$\scripts\litetouch.vbs from the old PC (*NOT* from WinPE), and start the deployment from there.

Disk Utility won't add new partition

I have an external 250GB hard drive connected via USB to my Mac Mini (Early 2009) computer. The drive has a GUID partition table that was created using Windows Vista SP 1. The first partition on the disk is a 128MB Microsoft Reserved partition. The second partition is a 120GB NTFS partition. When I try to use Disk Utility to partition the remaining 112GB of space as a Mac OS Extended Journaled partition I keep getting an error message stating "MediaKit reports no such partition". How do I get around this bug in Apple's Disk Utility application?

techguy378,
As they always do, Microsoft has undoubtedly created "their own" proprietary implementation of the GUID partition table. The effect, in this particular case, is that Disk Utility cannot see that unused space. That doesn't mean this is a Disk Utility "bug."
If one were to do the same thing with Disk Utility- create 2 partitions on a drive that do not fill the drive- that empty space would be included in the partition map. Simple. In your case, however, it appears that Vista has just excluded that empty space from the map entirely. Neat trick, huh?
I think your only solution will be to add a partition in Vista, if that is possible without destroying the current volumes. You can then reformat the new partition in Disk Utility.

How to reuse the same disk (partition) for next ASM configuration?

Hello All,
I had successfully installed and configured ASM instance once, but I need to do a reinstallation and I would like to use the same disk (partition) as with previous ASM configuration.
The disk path used was: /dev/rdsk/c1t3d0s7
I have to regretfully admit that I may not have used the right ASM un-installation procedure. I ran installer and opted to de-install products. Consequently, I had removed ASM home. Now, when I running new ASM installation, everything goes fine until the screen where I should select disks for ASM configuration. Unfortunately, I see the /dev/rdsk/c1t3d0s7 with status > MEMBER < and I can't select it for the new ASM installation.
I will really appreciate if anyone can let me know how to change status from MEMBER to CANDIDATE.
Thank you for your time.
DanielD

Overwrite the first several MB of the partition with /dev/zero.
So, use this command:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rdsk/c1t3d0s7 bs=1024k count=10
That clears out the ASM header on the disk so that it looks like a clean disk again.

SQL Server Distributed Partitioning Views how to add a new node online

We are using distributed partitioning views in SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition for scaling out our data across more than one servers. Now we faced to question how to add a new node (server) into the scale outed db servers system without sending the servers
down, so our users will be able to use them during the process as well.
For example we have 4 servers with scaled out data. When we add the new empty server, the CHECKINGs for the partitioning columns should be reorganized. But during the process the partitioning views are not working.
The High Availability, Always On or Failover Cluster approaches seem are not resolve the problems.
So my question is how to add new node online?
KH

Thank you Erland for the reply.
Yes, it's sounds as possible solution but has some not resolvable nuance in it. Let's say we copied some data from Node5 to new added Node6. Let's assume in Node5 we had data in Table1 with partitioning column's values 100,101,102,103,104,105,106. Now
we want to copy part of the rows with partitioning column's values 103,104,105,106 from Node5.Table1 into Node6.Table1. With this Node5 will contain less data and will work more quickly (less IO, less CPU usage etc), and the rest data will be contained on
Node6. But because of Node5 is already in use, the Node5.Table1 contains CHECK CONSTRAINT = ParttionColumn should be from 100 up to 106. This is check for Node5. The Distributed Partitioning Views are already using the CHECKs to identify what server should
be used to get data from.
Now when we copied part of the Node5.Table1 rows to Node6.Table1 the views are still using the 103-106 rows from Node5.Table1 because the CHECK points there. Then we include the newest Node6.Table1 in the distributed partitioning views. OK, but we should
set some CHECK on new Node6.Table1 which will be used by views. We can't set intersecting checking like Node5 has CHECK 100-106 and Node6 has CHECK 103-106. We also can't edit Node5 check and set it 100-102 untill the data will be removed in it. But this means
that the data will not be available during the execution.
So, any ideas ?

MDT 2013 Fails to Format or Partition disk on Surface Pro 3

I have been trying to image a Surface Pro 3 using MDT 2013 and have been unable to get past the Format and Partition portion of the deployment. At first I would get an error that it was unable to format or partition the drive and then after that it
just reboots after trying for so long. I am able to image any other device with the same task sequence and have no issue just having an issue with the Surface Pro 3. Any help would be great.
Thanks in advance.
I am getting the error FAILURE (5210)
ZTI Error - Unhandled error returned by ZTIDISKPART: Object required (424)

I think our problem is also hardware failure although without re-imaging a working surface pro 3 I can't be sure.
I tried what imfusio suggested in this thread.
https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/d31384bc-4e96-4a5b-a400-637bd6006d81/failure-5456-unable-to-determine-destination-disk-partition-and-or-drive-surface-pro-3?forum=mdt
Unfortunately the deployment failed with the same ZTI Error - Unhandled error returned by ZTIDISKPART:
Object required (424)
I then rebooted into WinPE and ran diskpart, I could see the two volumes (EFI and OSDisk). I then tried to format the OS disk volume using diskpart. I got a paramater is incorrect error and the disk was no longer visible with a 'list disk' command. So it's
like the format is putting the disk offline. I'm going to try restore one of these surfaces, apply all firmware updates then re-image. If that doesn't work I'm out of ideas.

How do I move my photo library to a different disk partition?

How do I move my iPhoto library to a different disk partition?

Drag it to a partition or disk image formatted as Mac OS Extended. If you want that copy to be an active iPhoto library and not a backup, also launch iPhoto with the Option key held down and point it to the new location.
