Deployment Manager Error with Oracle Weblogic Server 10.3.1

I have installed Identity Manager 9.1.0.2 (patch upgraded from 9.1.0.1) on OEL 5.3 64bit and Weblogic 10.3.1
Database:Oracle 11gR2 (remote machine).
**I am aware that IM 9.1.0.2 is not certified on Weblogic 10.3.1 (it is only certified on 10.3),
The installation was successful and OIManager is up and running. Able to create Users, Resources etc. as well.
As part of configuring OIM Connectors tried to Import .xml file using Import option from Deployment Management section as below and the following error was displayed.
"Either your session timed out or you are trying to access a page without logging in".
Did all workarounds like enabling java, changing browsers, restarting machine etc as per the below discussion but in vain.
Deployment Manager Error with Oracle Weblogic Server
Can any one suggest any workaround or solution for this problem.
Or atleast can any one confirm there is no Identity manager available on this date which is compatible with 10.3.1? and cannot be continued further.
Thanks in Advance

You are facing this issue because you're using a non certified combination.
Other folks who tried to use OIM in 10.3.1 ended up in the same problem you're facing.

Replacing a windows server with a Mac server

Hi all,
So this is a big company with about 150 employees using PC's (win xp and 7), considering replacing the current Windows server with a Mac server.
Is it possible to give users profiles once they log in like Windows server does? So when the user logs in they get to their own personal stuff? Can Mac server do that?
Can the user also get to the default printer and send prints to it regardless where they log in from inside the company?
And can the home directory to each user NOT be copied anywhere on the local machine where they log in? Meaning that after they log out there will be no traces to their files on that local PC..
Thanks a lot in advance!!

By some standards, 150 is not "big" but a large small business :-)
Regardless, please plan and test and plan some more, very carefully !
The picture for what you want to do once looked far better with 10.6 server but that had its limitations as well.
With 10.6 server, Apple was using Samba - they are no longer doing so,
but/and the version of Samba they were using only provided NT-Domain level support.
So that would not work with your Win 7 stations either. But could be made to work relatively well with XP workstations. You can no longer buy any new Mac that runs 10.6 server and 10.6 server would be hard to obtain.
Not a great route to go.
Bear in mind that the key problem with Apple's Samba was that Samba changed their licensing,
and there's not a thing in the world Apple could do to implement a current version of Samba without violating their own operating principles and the licensing requirements.
You'll be heading into heavily uncharted territory here. Odds are good that any desired domain-functionality is not going to work for you.
Honestly, Apple appears to have thrown in the towel on directory-level support for Windows,
and the best way to support Windows workstations in that regard is with Windows server and AD.
Basic filesharing works, with some caveats.
If there's no AD involved at all, then have a look at my earlier post,
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206725?start=47
Which worked a-ok for me but your mileage may vary.
Samba new current versions and GPL3 licensing issue:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3206725?start=75&tstart=0
"GPLv3 makes it impossible to provide signed binaries without also providing the signing keys. A few seconds of thought will reveal why Apple is unwilling to provide copies of the keys they use to sign system software. Part of locking down OS X security profile required removing anythign that used GPLv3.
Short version: GPLv3 is specifially desinged to be anti-company, and you are going to see a ever widening schism in the FSS/OSS community between GPL and all the other licenses, and you will be seeing less and less GPL code in commercial OSes and more BSD/Apache/&c code."

How to create CATALOG with MS SQL Server?

Connection class has getCatalog(strCatalog) method. In order to use it, we must create CATALOG in Database?
How to create CATALOG with MS SQL Server?
Help me, please!!!

You do not create these for any database, this is part of the Connection metadata.
The Catalog is the third level of table-like database object qualification as in "Catalog.Schema.Table". For SQLServer the qualification scheme is "Database.Owner.Table" and I would be surprised if they reported anything for the current connections getCatalog() method call.
What many people do is avoid table qualification altogether by setting the connection's context in a database proprietary manner and then keeping the SQL as clean as possible. For many ODBC and JDBC drivers this can be set in the configuration. For MS SQLServer you can also execute a "USE dbname" statement on the connection to avoid table qualification.

How Transaction Manager work with Resource Manager, like Connection pool?

hi,
I'm using BEA Webloigc8.1 Stateless Session Bean/DAO/Oracle stored proc.
but I'm not quite clear how Transaction Manager work with Resource Manager, like Connection pool.
my understanding is that, in a weblogic transaction, a stateless session bean interact with several DAOs, and for each method of DAO a connection is acquired from connection pool. I've heard that the connection will not return to pool until the transaction commits.
My question is that, does it mean that for a weblogic transaction, multiple connections might be allocated to it? and if multiple connections are allocated, then how many oracle transactions would be started? or multiple connections share the same oracle transaction?
I didn't feel it make sense to start multiple oracle transactions, cause deadlock might be incurred in a single weblogic transaction.
any help appreciated!

any help appreciated!Hi. If you configure your WLS DataSource to use keep a connection for
the duration of a tx, it will do that, and in any case there can be
no deadlock however many connections operate for a given XA transaction.
Here is the best coding form for DAOs or any other user-written code
for using WebLogic DataSources. This is important for two reasons:
1 - Thread-safety is maintained as long as the connection is a
method-level object.
2 - It is crucial to notify WebLogic that you are done with a connection
ASAP, by your calling close() on it. We will then put it back in the
pool, or keep it under the covers for your next request if it's in a
transaction etc. The pool is optimized for quick get-use-close scenarios.
public void one_of_my_main_JDBC_Methods()
Connection con=null; // Must be a method level object for thread-safety
// It will be closed by the end of the method.
try {
con = myDataSource.getConnection(); // Get the connection in the try
// block, directly from the WebLogic
// datasource
// do all the JDBC within this try block. You can pass the
// connection to subordinate methods, but not to anywhere
// that thinks it can use the connection later.
rs.close(); // close any result set asap
stmt.close(); // then close any statement asap
// When you're done with JDBC
con.close(); // close the connection asap
con = null; // nullify it so the finally knows it's done
catch (Exception e) {
// do whatever catch stuff you want. You don't
// need a catch block if you don't want one...
finally {
// It is important to close a JDBC connection ASAP when it's not needed.
// without fail, and regardless of exit path. Do everything in your
// finally block in it's own try-catch-ignore so everything is done.
try { if (con != null) con.close();} catch (Exception ignore){}
return ret;
}

Is it possible to run a Windows domain with a Mac Server?

Looking for some advice on getting rid of our Windows domain controller (DHCP server, AD, etc.) in favour of a Mac Server (which we own). Is it possible to run a Windows domain with a Mac Server?

Snow Leopard Server (10.6) and earlier included Samba which supported acting as an NT Domain Controller (this pre-dates Active Directory). Lion (10.7) and later as standard can no longer act as an NT Domain Controller nor can they act as an Active Directory server.
So the short answer is no.
Theoretically you could port Samba4 to a Mac and Samba4 can act as an Active Directory server. In reality this is not going to be easy but is theoretically possible.
An easier option might be to run a copy of Linux (e.g. Ubuntu) in a virtual machine e.g. using VirtualBox and then run Samba4 in that and configure it to act as and Active Directory server. Then you could connect the Mac side to the Samba4 Active Directory server. This approach would use all Mac hardware, and not have any extra costs of licenses to buy and as far as all the rest of the network is concerned would be a standard Active Directory server environment.

How much attached storage can a mac server handle? What would be the best suggestion for this?

Hello, hopefully I am in the correct location, if not, i apologize. Please bear with me as I am fairly new to MAC server. Here is my dillema. I have a mac graphics group that uses about 6TB of storage currently on a Windows server. We are running into issues such as permissions and searching inability. I was considering moving them to a mac server but will need to add storage to this. What would be recommended for such large disk space? We do currenlty have 2 mac mini servers and all the users are bound to AD as well. Thank you in advance for any suggestions!

One of the Mac Mini Server boxes I deal with has 24 TB hanging off of the box (configured as RAID-6), plus a two-disk RAID-1 mirror set inside the box. That's also a pretty small configuration, both in terms of its physical size and in terms of its storage capacity in the grand scheme of things.
A Mac Pro or Mac Pro Server will do 8 TB inside the box, plus a whole lot more outside the box either direct-attached storage (DAS) or via a Storage Area Network (SAN) configuration, but the performance of a Mac Pro Server is probably overkill for your needs, too.
As much as you are focusing on the capacity, you'll also want to look at how you'll archive and manage that much storage. At how you'll manage and conduct backups of your data.
You'll also be looking at the speed and the design of your network, if you're moving large files around regularly. Gigabit Ethernet does pretty well for small groups, but you may be looking for a different setup of that's not fast enough.

How to manage windows cluster on windows server 2008 R2

Hi I want to know how to properly shutdown or stop windows cluster with out failover or failing it.
I have successfully created windows cluster on win 2008 R2 sp1 using vmware with starwind software for SAN storage.
Now when I shut down or stop cluster service on node1 it failsover and shows critical errors fine.ok... I tried to destroy and clean up cluster using cmd commands.Forcecleanup both nodes with cmd commands.it was successful.
Later I recreated san storage with target and initiator configuration using starwind without any issue.
I Reinstalled FC service on both the nodes restarted vmnodes.I cheked all the firewall were disable.and machines able to ping well..
Now when I tried to recreate new cluster it fails and gives different errors.AS Node1 was evicted from cluster,Another was Quoram was lost as no witness disk was found.
Also It did not show my cluster under FCM on Node2.I tried to add node Node2 but error saying Node2 is already in a cluster.
So I want to know how to manage windows cluster properly and manage it entries in active directory so that even after shutting/stopping the service/destroying cluster I do not need to do all over again.
I had to recreate all VMware from start and do AD setup and SAN storage again then only windows cluster got successfully created once again....................
I had to recreate all vmware nodes with FC sevice reinstalled and also recreate AD DS and DNS.

How to mirror airplay with a mac os 10.5.8

Hi everyone,
First, please excuse my english that may be low (I'm french...)
I've recently bought an Apple TV. But I have some trouble with it...
First the salesperson told me I could use the airplay mirror with any ios device, but I've figured out that it wasn't possible with a Iphone 4...
Then I wanted to use the mirror thing with my Macbook, but also found myself in trouble...Not working because of airplay or airserver isn't suitable for mac os 10.5.8.
I'm trying to install Snow Leopard on my mac, but can find an installation cd... Does anyone know how I could work this out ?
Any idea where I could find the sl cd ? Or how could I use the airplay mirror with my mac ?
Thank you guys !

In an ARS Technica review of AirParrot, they had this to say; "AirParrot runs on the latest version of Snow Leopard (10.6.8), as well as Lion (10.7.x) and Mountain Lion (10.8). And, it runs on any Intel-based Mac (though the older the hardware, the more it will struggle to stream at an acceptable frame rate). On my 2.0GHz Core 2 Duo MacBook Air, video was just slightly choppy."
The reason they give for the choppiness was; "The reason, we discovered, is that the feature relies on Intel's QuickSync hardware-accelerated video compression technology. QuickSync is a feature of the integrated graphics built into Intel's Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge series processors."

How to set ACLs on Remote MAC server Volumes..

Hi,
I have Mac OS X server v 10.5 Leopard. Initially I have enabled the ACLs using fsaclctl on the MAC server volume. When this volume gets mounted(through afp) on some other MAC client(MAC OS X 10.4 Tiger), the ACL status is shown as disabled. And it not allowing to set the ACLs on the remote volume from the client side.
I have used the following command to enable ACLs from Client.
sudo fsaclctl -p /Volumes/<server Volume> -e
This failed as "not supported".
Anyone knows how to set the ACLs on the remote MAC server volumes? Basically I want to see ACL working on Remote MAC server volumes.

Hi
+". . . remote MAC server volumes . . ."+
Are you saying you are trying to enable ACLs on volumes shared by another OSX Server when volumes are mounted on the server in question?
Or are saying you can't see if ACLs on mounted volumes when issuing ls -lae for example?

Help with a mac Server password to get into mac os 8.6

how would i get rid of a server password in mac os? Is it the same in all mac os's? After mac os starts, it asks for a password. Is this possible to get rid of it? Any suggestions??
Thanks,
Sean

Is it the same in all mac os's?
No, in fact there was no OS support for passwords in OS 8.6. In OS 9 this was only available if you enable the Multiple Users function.
In OS 8.6, they must be running a 3rd party application to provide security.
