How to roll back settings applied by a Group Policy Custom Administrative Template

Hi,
I have disabled USB port on a number of workstations using a Group Policy Custom Administrative Template. Now I need to enable it again. Is it possible to do it through Group Policy Custom Administrative Template again? If not how can I enable the USB ports?
TIA
Bijan

What I have exactly done is adding a custom administrative template which through it I can disable the removable medias. Sorry for the mistake, I was working on another issue and that made me confused. Anyway I put the content of adm file here to be inspected.

  • How to roll back changes made by other user in nwdi?

    hi all
    my doubt is.
    if there are errors in the WD NWDI project (cause developer before me had deleted/ added some of the code which is causing those errors).
    how to  roll back the code changes which were made by other user.
    i think through sync option but  when we sync to a earlier date we cant check out the code to make changes.
    help me.

    thanks rohit.
    but if there are changes in the context, i mean if one more attribute is created and it is been used a UI element.
    then the above process works.
    My doubt is.
        src folder(configuration,packages,mimes)
    Will these file contain all the code including  the context attributes and the mapping informatin and every thing else.
    (except Libs)???????
    can you plz tell me where the context attributes and mapping informantion and source code and model information are stored (in which folder).
    thanks in advance

  • How to roll back when procedure fails

    Hi All,
    In my process using procedures i am droping the temp tables and creating temp tables ,if any procedures fails how should roll back all the process
    Procedure1(droping tables)----->procedure2(creating table1)--------->procedure3(creating table2)------->procedure4(Validaating accounts in table2 and creating seperate table)
    Any suggestion please
    Thanks in Advance

    Let's say in your package you have your 4 procedures (Proc1, Proc2, Proc3, Proc4).
    Also create 3 additional procedures:
    RollBack1 -> Does the opposite to Proc1 (i.e. if Proc1 drops a table, then Rollback1 will create it)
    RollBack2 -> Does the opposite to Proc2
    RollBack3 -> Does the opposite to Proc3
    Your logic will be:
    If Proc1 is successful, then execute Proc2.
    If Proc1 is unsuccessful, then end.
    If Proc2 is successful, then execute Proc3.
    If Proc2 is unsuccessful, then use an on failure path (red line) to execute RollBack1.
    If Proc3 is successful, then execute Proc4.
    If Proc3 is unsuccessful, then use an on failure path (red line) to execute RollBack2, followed by RollBack1.
    If Proc4 is successful, then end.
    If Proc4 is unsuccessful, then use an on failure path (red line) to execute RollBack3, followed by RollBack2, followed by RollBack1.
    It mightn't be necessary to undo everything - but you'll know your own business needs to make a decision on that.

  • How to "roll back" SAP APO PPDS planning batch run from infeasible batch mid-point to before start of planning batch run?

    Hi Experts,
    We are investigating if any SAP customer that implemented SAP APO PPDS has ever attempted to establish a "roll back" of the SAP APO PPDS created supply plan to a defined point before the start of the SAP APO PPDS planning batch run?  
    We have a situation where - in the middle of the planning batch run - randomly or intermittent the batch run hangs or runs a step for multiple hours that normally, at most days, takes only a few minutes to run.  In a situation like this, the supply plan is not in a state where customer sales orders can be promised  (using GATP CTP) or planned orders can be converted to production orders and published to SAP ECC, etc since the plan may be capacity infeasible or simply partial or incomplete.   To not hold the business operations hostage to wait resuming operations (promise customer sales orders, convert and release and execute orders to transfer, deliver, produce, or purchase) for hours or days, we need to find a way back to the original plan right before the nightly PPDS batch planning job started.
    We already close all the queues from ECC to APO, thus, no CIF traffic from ECC to APO.  We also shut down the customer sales order feed into ECC as normal process for duration of the APO PPDS batch planning run.  Thus, functionally,  we are theoretically in a situation to simply go back to a PPDS and active planning version save prior to the run.  Yet, many more technical and BASIS-related questions remain on how to roll back to a state where the plan was not compromised.
    This inquiry is to learn if any other SAP customer has ever established a process to roll back SAP APO PPDS to a previous point in time supply plan to resume operations?  Whatever the reasons are, be it after a failed  batch run, or any time during the normal interactive plan day.  
    Additional information about our design and plan:  
    1.  We have a two year horizon supply plan in PPDS
    2.  We only publish to ECC 14 days worth of planned orders, stock transfer requirements, and purchase requirements
    3.  We convert planned orders to production orders and release production orders in ECC 2 days before first operation starts
    4.  We convert PR's to PO's and STR's to STO's in ECC  2 days before execution (ship or submit to vendor)
    Any indication where a SAP customer has developed and uses a process to roll back an SAP APO PPDS- planned supply plan to an earlier point in time or version would be helpful to know.
    Regards,
    Manimaran M.

    Hi  Manimaran,
    Saving in Simulation means in DS board when you click on save it provides you option to save sim version or adopt to active version. If you copy to inactive version you cannot copy back  trasaction data specially PPDs orders back to active version again while if you save in simulation you can adope it to active version at any point of time. YOu can adopt simulation version changes to active version using T-code /SAPAPO/CDPSS0
    Copying to active version means you copy data from version 000 to some other active version while here results are kept simulation,

    Hi,
    How do your employees using their personal mailbox? If they access it via Outlook, please refer to the suggestions Maffiow provided. If they access it via IE, we could not prevent them attaching
    file to their mailbox via Group Policy. As a workaround, you may prevent them accessing the third party mailbox webpage via Group Policy.

  • Why some settings are located in windows settings node while other are located in administrative template node?

    hi friends
    when we look at any GPO in Group policy management snap-in, each GPO has these four main sections
    1-software settings     2- windows settings       3- administrative templates         4- preferences
    my question is, what logic or criteria exist about dividing OS settings into these four parts?
    what shared characteristics exist in windows settings node & what shared characteristics exist in administrative templates node?
    its confusing. because some settings about windows exist in windows settings node but some other settings which are again related to windows, are located in administrative templates node.
    any help please.
    thanks in advanced

    > but i need some more info about that
    For which purpose? It is the way it is, that's it :)

  • How to roll back update 5.0.1? I really can't stand this update

    Is it possible to roll back update 5.0.1 to 5.0? iPhone update 5.0.1 completely screwed up my phone. It's actually not a iPhone any more, but an iPod but at at 7x price.

    If you applied update directly to phone itself rather than from itunes by syncing you can roll it back.  Simply go into settings and perform a reset and erase all.  Then sync phone up with computer and perform a restore but do not accept option when it asks if you want to download and update os software for phone! 
    My wife was prompted on phone itself to update software & she did it without consulting with me first.  I simply reset the thing and restored to previous backup which was on ver 5. FYI before I did that I compared the two phones & you could clearly see the problems mentioned in the Associated Press.  
    Incidently Apple I do not appreciate you aggressively sending a software update to the phone directly like that especially when I've specified in my settings otherwise.  An experienced technology professional would know better than to deploy something without insuring its successful functionality. 
    In December I am yanking my business away from your company!

  • How to "roll back" to Flash 9?

    I discovered a problem with printing uclick puzzles. This occurs on both Safari and Firefox. I am told by uclick that it is a problem with Adobe flash 10 and they are working on the problem. They suggest that I "roll back" to a previous version of Flash. I have no idea how to do it. Can someone help?

    I followed your directions as I indicated and all was well. However suddenly the problem has happened again. I believe since the last issue I have installed the latest version of Firefox 3.0.11 and therefore I went to re-install Adobe Flash 9. This time it will not let me since it says I have a later version on my computer. How do I uninstall Adobe Flash 10?

  • How to roll back power shell scripts

    if i am run any scripts on the power shell and after that  there is a problem then  i need to roll back that scripts. 
    Abp

    You should be very comfortable with a scripting language before you should run them in production. If you are comfortable with PowerShell then you know exactly what that script will execute. You should have a backup solution, but you could also use PowerShell
    to export and import configurations in certain cases as a way to backup/restore settings. If you are learning PowerShell and you are executing cmdlets you can make good use of the -WhatIf parameter.

  • How to roll back IOS8 to IOS7 on IPHONE4s

    Is it possible to roll back IOS8 to IOS7 on a IPHONE4s? If so how is it done.

    I hate to bring bad news, but actually, it was possible for a few days after the release of iOS 8. Apple stop signing previous versions by the 27th, so now we are all stuck with iOS 8. When iOS9 breaks your phone and cripples some of your apps, remember that you CAN roll back to the previous version of iOS but you have to do it within a couple of days or so.
    Sorry. I'm actually in the same boat and can't use some music apps until the developers upgrade.

  • How to roll back to 1.7 EFI Firmware?

    Hey folks,
    I just updated my late 2008 Macbook Pro to EFI Firmware v1.8, and am finding that suddenly my Firewire audio interface can't play a single thing without crackling, even in simple programs like Media Player, on my Boot Camp partition.
    Using firmware version 1.7, everything was just fine. How does one roll back to an earlier firmware version? Does it have to be done by an Apple Tech? I am fairly certain that this can be done, as people in other threads seem to have successfully done it, and mention a 'rollback tool.' However, I can never seem to find any links or instructions.
    Thanks!
    HK

    The "roll back" tool you are referring to is not for your model (late 2008). It was for the mid-2009 MacBook Pros. The machines do not use the same firmware. Rolling back the firmware is something that an Apple tech would not likely be able to do for you. The firmware roll-back tool for the mid 2009 models was not even generally available to Apple Geniuses. It was released only by Apple Corporate after much complaining about a specific problem plaguing those machines. Even after that, most Apple Geniuses were unaware of the tool. You may want to give Apple Support a call and see what they have to say. You may want to check with the manufacturer of your interface to see if they have a resolution.

  • How to "roll back" the model if a database update fails

    I'd like to know if there's a way to "roll back" the model (the values in the managed beans) if a service call to a database fails during the Invoke Application phase. My understanding of the JSF lifecycle is that the values in the model are updated before a service call to a database would happen. If the database update operation fails, it seems to me that the data in the model and the database would be inconsistent.
    For example, say I have a ridiculously simple application that updates a names database. The fields are id, last name, first name. The application has a simple view that allows the user to update a name in the database. The user updates the last name field for a particular record from "Doe" to "Smith" and clicks "submit". The request goes through the lifecycle, the model values are updated from the web form during the Update Model Values phase, then the call to update the database fails during the Invoke Applications phase (the database connection failed). When the Render Response phase completes, the UI would display an error message where I put <h:messages> but the last name value in the UI would show "Smith" instead of "Doe". Is there something I can do to roll the model value back to "Doe" if the database call fails?
    I know that I could redirect to a technical error page, but I'd like to avoid it unless it is the best thing to do.
    I'd appreciate any advice you can offer.
    Thanks.
