How to create Home Dir

I want to create Home Dir with remote manager and VB script. Here is the architecture OIM will call remote manager which is on other windows machine . On remote manager we will run script which will call other windows machine where we want to create hone dir.
Here my question is ...Is it necessary to have remote manager in the Domain where we are creating home dir.
We are having 12 domains so do we need to 12 remote manager

You can turn anything into a remote manager task. Just need to recreate the same adapter, but use an IT Resource with a remote manager, and add the task as a remote manager task instead. Then when you map the it resource, it will have another variable to map.

How to create /home directory in a diferent disk ?

How to create /home directory in a diferent disk ?
Edited by: user1502 on Apr 25, 2012 1:51 PM

I'm confused. It looks like you already have /home configured:
<pre># zpool status
pool: home
state: ONLINE
scan: none requested
config:
NAME STATE READ WRITE CKSUM
home ONLINE 0 0 0
c4t3d0 ONLINE 0 0 0
errors: No known data errors
# zfs list
NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
home 86K 134G 32K /home
...</pre>
What is the problem? Looks like you already have /home configured. Are you sure automounter is not running?
Try this:
<pre>zfs set mountpoint=none home
rm -rf /home
zfs set mountpoint=/home home</pre>

How to reset Home Dir permissions?

I've had a few situations lately where I've had to either move files from one user's Home Dir to another's, or delete a user then move its files back after recreating it, or simply fix wonky privs, but I can't seem to find an easy way to do these things.
Is there any way to automate the inheritance of privs? Like, I want to be able to drop a file into a user's home, and have it become owned by that user. I thought I'd at least be able to reset the owner while logged in as that user, by changing the setting in the Get Info window, but you aren't even given the option to authenticate as an admin...
Am I missing something easy here?

In short, there is no easy way to enable propagation of ownership to files that are dropped into a home folder.
However, I use a bash script on or home folder servers to create/fix permissions on a user's apple home folder. The script will go through all folders in the user's home folder and reset the permissions and ownership to the correct values.
1. Copy the script below into a file (eg. fixpermissions.sh) using emacs, nano or your favorite editor.
2. Open a terminal on the machine hosting the home folder.
3. Change to the top level of your home folder tree.
Eg. If the home folder is /Users/jweston, change to the /Users folder <pre>cd /Users</pre>
4. Run the fixpermissions.sh script with the username to fix.
<pre>./fixpermissions.sh jweston</pre>
5. Done! Note: If the folder does not exist it will be created. Otherwise, the script will fix permissions on the current contents.
Here is the script...
<pre>
#!/bin/bash
if [ -d ${1} ]
then
#Home Dir exists, reset permissions
chown -R ${1}.admin ${1}
chmod -R u=rwX,go= ${1}
chmod -R go=rX ${1}/Public ${1}/Sites
chmod go=wX ${1}/Public/Drop\ Box
chmod go=rX ${1}
else
#Home Dir does not exist, create...
mkdir ${1}
mkdir ${1}/Desktop
mkdir ${1}/Documents
mkdir ${1}/Library
mkdir ${1}/Movies
mkdir ${1}/Music
mkdir ${1}/Pictures
mkdir ${1}/Public
mkdir ${1}/Public/Drop\ Box
mkdir ${1}/Sites
chown -R ${1}.admin ${1}
chmod -R u=rwX,go= ${1}
chmod -R go=rX ${1}/Public ${1}/Sites
chmod go=wX ${1}/Public/Drop\ Box
chmod go=rX ${1}
fi</pre>

How To Backup Home Dir?

I am wanting to backup my home dir. What is the easiest and most efficient way of backing up my home dir. without having to purchase software of any sort? I want to be able to easily replace my home dir. if I have to do a format and clean install of any sort of OS X and not run into problems of being locked out of my files.
Thanks

There are numerous backup solutions available:
Backup Utilities for OS X
(In the order of my personal ranking)
1. The Restore option of Disk Utility (only for full backups.)
2. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial $129 - not universal binary)
3. Synchronize! Pro X (Shareware $99)
4. Synk 6 (Shareware - 3 versions: Pro $45, Standard $35, Basic $25)
5. Deja Vu (Shareware $25)
6. LaCie SilverKeeper (Freeware - not universal binary.)
7. Carbon Copy Cloner 3.0 Beta (Freeware.)
8. RSyncX and PSyncX (Freeware - GUIs wrapped around Unix tools.)
9. arRsync (Freeware - GUI wrapper on rsync.)
For a good discussion of backup and restore visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on backup and restore strategies.
Except for Retrospect you can download the others from www.versiontracker.com or www.macupdate.com.
You will need backup media. The best solution is to purchase an external Firewire drive equal to or larger than the internal drive. You can then clone your entire system using the Restore option of Disk Utility. Alternatively you can save your backups to DVDs.

How to create a Dir and files within it?

Hi all ,
I need to create a Dir and some sample files within it for some testing purpose,can any body tell me how to do it?(I follow al11 GUI options but its giving some error)
Or
Is there any FM by which we can do it directly to application server????
Its urgent requirement..
Thanx in advance

to create a file in appl server you have to use open dataset and close data set..
see the sample code
REPORT zanid_test MESSAGE-ID zz .
parameters: FULLPATH(128) obligatory lower case
                      default 'E:\usr\sap\put\file.txt'.
*you change the appl sever path as per your config.
DATA : BEGIN OF list_asc OCCURS 0,
        msg(300) TYPE c,
       END OF list_asc.
start-of-selection.
*---populating data
list_asc-msg = 'abcdefghijkl'. "your sample data
append list_asc.
list_asc-msg = 'faagoaagiagig'. "your sample data
append list_asc.
OPEN DATASET fullpath FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.
LOOP AT LIST_ASC.
      TRANSFER LIST_ASC-MSG TO fullpath.
      CLEAR LIST_ASC-MSG.
ENDLOOP.
CLOSE DATASET fullpath.
now if you go to appl server , you will find that file in that specified path..
to create a directory yu can go to transaction AL11 and click the 'konfigurieren'button, you then you can specify the directory attibutes to create a directory
and to load a file from your loacl pc to appl server you can use transaction CG3Y also, instead of the abap code.
plz rewrad points if it helps you.

Command line creating of users fails to correctly set afp:// based home dir

i'm using a script to make users. they come and go quite a lot, don't want to be using a mouse all day long.
i thought it would be simple. dscl /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 -create /Users/user1 NFSHomeDirectory /network/servers/some.server.here/path
with some other part of the script creating the home directory and setting it up for use.
this only gets me a nfs based home directory, which doesn't seem to work. when i make them in WGM, i get an afp based one. (afp://some.server.here/group1/user1)
what's the trick? how can i create an OD entry with dscl which results in the same outcome as using WGM?

using this script now. seems to work:
dscl -u diradmin -P $dirpass /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 -create /Users/"$sinaUSER"
dscl -u diradmin -P $dirpass /LDAPv3/127.0.0.1 -create /Users/"$sinaUSER" UserShell /bin/bash

Create Home Now in WGM does not create home directory until...

We are using newest ver. of Leopard on our Xserve and have some issues with Workgroup Manager. We can create new users and specify the location of their HOME, however, when we try to Create Home Now and Save, the directory does not get created! No errors though, just silence and no action. Tried many times and no go.
UNTIL.... We log in with than new username directly into the server using Remote Desktop. Once logged in to Xserve as local user, the Home Directory magically appears.
What is happening?

Not sure what's happening - you can check the logs for clues.
You can also use createhomedir -a That will create home dirs for all users (and will not touch existing home dirs)

[SOLVED] AIF : How to create/add a $User (/home) ... ???

We need the ability to (optionally) create a new User within AIF "procedures"/"Modules"/...:
Is there a method to add/create a new User (with a /home dir, ...) within an AIF install, so that upon completion, and reboot, of a successful AIF, the new user is properly setup. ?
And/or if not, how about adding the User info by hacking in the (passwd, shadow, gshadow) files. ?
For example, I tried several times within "worker_scripts, chrooting,... "? and concatenating the respective new User info to passwd, shadow, gshadow, ...,as mentioned in the line above,
BUT, unfortunately, none of these worked. ?
All I got was "Seg faults" when trying to use chroot -> useradd...?
So, let me re-clarify here; ie, the "disk-configurator" during an "aif -p automatic -c ...." requires those "mandatory" disk values be edited in already.
Ok, then, optionally, how about a "USER-configurator" (with $username_aif, $passwd_aif, $groups_aif, $....) variables that we could also just plug-in within that script, ... ?
...and yes, I have also been trying to search the arch-releng mailing-lists but maybe I'm missing somethin' here...? sry.
-please don't get me wrong, and any suggestions are welcome.
Other than that, AIF is very good. -and, I also would just like to thank the Author and company, at this time, for it.
Regards,
Rick.

Hi @meph, and thx for reply.
I'm beginning to agree with the reasonable sentiment of simplicity, aka Live vs (automated)Netinstall, otherwise, I'm sure AIF would have implemented an "add_user" ability within AIF a long time ago.
As far as seg faults, I read somewhere in the past that I would also have to mount /proc,... and some other's to get a more full functionality, again , I'm not completely sure about this either yet.
Example:
If I try to run a useradd, (witin my automated script), I notice that the "useradd" command (as used by the booted netinstall image is purposely lacking a "-R" switch ? , preventing me from referencing it within /mnt/home/<Username> ...?
Again, I don't get much info after the "Seg fault" even with debug on. It craps out.
I like "Netinstall" simply becuase I get a fully up-to-date, pristine Install.
Bascially, AIF (within the aif -p automatic ...) does everything else that I possibly need, except, adding user(s) with /home(s),....
I guess that is too bad.

How to create a home dirve through OIM

How to create a sharedfolder at the time of user provisioned to AD.pls let me know any one done this.Its very argent...I am new to this.
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: 790561 on 8/08/2011 15:44

Most likely you'd need to use powershell to create the home directory, which also means using java to initialize a vb script like the current terminal services functionality. You'll need to setup a remote manager to run the code on a windows box if you installed on a linux box.
So to sum it up, you'll write your code to run the vbscript that runs the powershell. Deploy to target machine and oim and use a remote manager to run the code. Attach your adapter to a new process task that is triggered when you complete the AD provisionng.

How to Create an iView under Home in Standard User Role

Hi,
Can anybody guide me how to create an iView under Home which access the content available from Windows Share folders on a non SAP system.
Its not URL iView , I wanna create an iView to access the content from a windows system (
share)
Thanks

You have to create a File System Repository Manager under System Admin -> KM Admin. You can access any Windows Shared drive through that File System Repository manager. The shared folder would be displayed in your portal like a KM folder. You can easily create a KM Navigation iView (from template) over that folder and achieve your goal.

How to create DIR/File on a raw device in RAC environment.

Hi all,
I use a shell script to create DIR and File on a raw device also it creates schema and tablespaces.
I am facing problem in creating DIR and Files on raw device.
One more thing, can multiple tablespaces be created on a raw device.
Thanks & regards,
Sanjeev

Thanks for the response. Please help me further.
About the Script - It asks for the path for creating DIR and uses shell command to create DIR. Later same path and DIR name is used to create Oracle DIR. Now in place of absolute path raw device name is passed. The same script is also used for creating tablespaces and schema.
There is second script that is .sql script that creates external table in the newly created schema. All this has been working fine on single instance Oracle server. we have tested many times but fails in RAC environment when we use raw device.
Question is - If I use filesystem will the external table's flat files and Directories be accessible to all the instances.
I have one application written in java that would be clustered and running on these oracle servers. This application would be accessing those external tables and their flat files. Will there be a problem accessing these flat files accross the instances.
Regards,
Sanjeev.

Use Parted Magic. But you *should* backup any important files just in case, regardless of method you use. You never know. Someone could unplug your computer, a power surge might happen, etc. A cousin of mine actually did something similar while I was gaming, the extension cord has a red button which he "accidentally" pressed. I would've cracked his skull had he done it while resizing a partition.
Anyway, the partitioning scheme should be the first thing you do when you decide go this route (dual booting). I remember about a year ago I forced myself to use Linux by formatting the entire drive to ext4, except for the 2 GB + 20 GB ntfs partitions. It was what kick-started me on this path. Here's my partitioning scheme for both computers, maybe you'll get an idea and do something similar:
Older computer:
2 GB ntfs - MicroXP
8 GB ext4 - Arch Linux + Home dir (to keep the dot files organized in one place)
20 GB ntfs - games partition
Rest is for media, formatted as ext3 with inode 128 (so it can be loaded as Read-Only in Windows too via Ext2fsd so they won't be affected in case of a virus infection)
New computer:
20 GB Windows 7
10 GB Arch Linux + home dir
50 GB games partition
Rest of the space is ext4 mounted to /media
Note that they're all primary partitions for remembering easier (sda1, sda2, sda3, sda4) instead of a combination of primary and extended which would probably look like sda1, sda5, sda6, sda7, etc.

How to create a custom empty package into a project ?

Hi all!
I'm trying to create new package structures into project but I can't do it. I can't found this option. Also, I'd like to be able to create a folder in the project (eg: /lib) in order to add some custom files like images and other jar files. Other feature I'm unable to figure is dragging/dropping files from one package to another or between folders.
It's just me or we don't have these options in JDev?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry for my poor English! :)

Hi Shay! Thanks for your reply.
Actually, I'm asking for a feature which allows to create a package structure before implementing java classes, diagrams, et al. How would I acomplish this?
I just created that structure in the file system, under my project home dir, but it hasn't been reflected in Jdev Application tree at all.
Thanks in advance.
