  • [Forum FAQ]How to upgrade Windows Server 2008 R2 with a GUI to Windows Server 2012 Server Core

    We found that some customers willing to upgrade Windows Server 2008 R2 GUI to Windows Server 2012 Server Core recently. This article provides detailed steps to perform the upgrade.
    Analysis
    Upgrading from Windows Server 2008 R2 with a GUI installation to Windows Server 2012 with Server Core directly
    is not supported. If you do that, you will receive the error message below(Figure 1) in Compatibility report: 
    Figure 1.
    In these scenario, you can upgrade to Windows Server 2012 firstly. After the upgrade process is completed, you can switch freely between Server Core and Server with a GUI modes.
    Produces
    You can follow the steps below to perform an upgrade from Windows Server 2008 R2 with a GUI installation to Windows Server 2012 Server Core mode:
    1. Upgrade to Windows Server 2012 with a GUI mode
    1) Firstly, please boot into Windows Server 2008 R2 with a Windows Server 2012 installation DVD inserted.
    2) Select the operating system you want to install with a GUI mode.
    We can see 2 options (Server Core Installation or Server with a GUI) for each operating system version. (Figure 2)
    Figure 2.
    Note: Please make sure you have enough disk space on system partition. Or you will get such an error in Compatibility report.(Figure 3)
    Figure 3.
    After the Compatibility check, the installation will continue. It will take several minutes until upgrading is done.(Figure 4)
    Figure 4.
    2. Switch the GUI mode to Server Core
    Method 1: Using Server Manager
    1) Open Server Manager, click
    Manger and select “Remove Roles and Features” to start the
    Remove Roles and Features Wizard.
    2) In Features,
    uncheck the box next to the “User Interfaces and Infrastructure” option, and then click “Next”. (Figure 5)
    Figure 5.
    Now tick the “Restart the destination Server automatically if required” box, then click “Remove”. (Figure 6)
    Figure 6.
    Method 2: Using Windows PowerShell
    There are multiple ways to remove the GUI via Windows PowerShell, we introduce the way of using the ServerManager module.
    You can also run the commands in Windows PowerShell with an administrator to remove the GUI feature:
    “Import-Module ServerManager”
    “Uninstall-Windowsfeature Server-Gui-Shell –Restart”
    or
    “Uninstall-WindowsFeature Server-Gui-Shell, Server-Gui-Mgmt-Infra –Restart”
    It will take a period of time to remove the GUI feature and reboot. When the system boots up, you will get into the Windows Server 2012 with Server Core mode. (Figure 7)
    Figure 7.

  • HT201318 how to upgrade icloud storage plan with  10.6.8?

    I haven't upgraded my computer software, so how to upgrade my icloud storege plan as when inside system preferences
    there is no icloud icon just the old mobile me. Thanks

    You can only do this from a Mac running 10.7.5 or above, or Mountain Lion; or an iOS5 or above device; or the iCloud Control Panel on a compliant version of Windows.
    If you only have access to the Mac and don't want to upgrade the system you could go to an Apple Store and ask the 'Genius' to do it for you (make an apppointment). Note that you won't be able to cancel the automatic renewal yourself .
    If you decide to upgrade your Mac you will need to check that it meets the requirements.
    The requirements for Lion are:
    Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7, or Xeon processor
    2GB of memory
    OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
    7GB of available space
    To purchase it you will have to ring Apple at the number given at the bottom left of this page.
    The requirements for Mountain Lion are:
    OS X v10.6.8 or later
    2GB of memory
    8GB of available space
    and the supported models are:
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer)
    MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer)
    Xserve (Early 2009)
    MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer)
    Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer)
    It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
    You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

    I have a Dell server with Windows Server 2008 Foundation installed. I am now on a larger network which has their own servers for authentication and the Windows Server 2008 Foundation will not let join a domain with more than 15 users. I was told that I needed
    to upgrade Windows server 2008 foundation to Windows server 2008 Standard and that process can be done "in place" but I can't find how do do it. I called Dell and they said they basically said they didn't know what I was talking about.

  • How to upgrade Domain Controller 2008 to 2012 on New Server

    Hi All,
    We are planning to upgrade our domain controller and exchange server 2008 to 2012 R2, so can anyone please suggest what step should be taken first. we have new server machine we are planning to install Windows 2012 R2 and create a additional domain controller
    of our existing domain 2008 then transfer the FSMO roles to this server to act as a primary. after successful migration we will upgrade our exchange 2008 to 2012. please advice is there any problem to do this way.
    Thanks
    Agha

    I was just curious about the same thing. However, I am running 32bit version of server 2008 and want to move the server 2012 r2. This will be on a machine with new hardware and all. Am just curious though if it is possible to migrate some of the
    domain as to not to have to replicate everything?
    Directory Services doesn't really care what version of the OS you are using.  You cannot do an in-place upgrade from a 32bit box to a 64bit box.
    You'll need to make your new R2 server, install AD, move the FSMOs, and demote your 2008 32bit box.
    What WOULDN'T you want to replicate?  That's not how AD works.  It's a multimaster enviroment where ALL DCs have the same information.  You can't choose which objects replicate.  To do that, you'll need to clean up your AD.
    Good luck.

  • How to upgrade my iMac 27-inch Mid 2010 for video editing?

    Hi there, I have an iMac 27-inch, Mid 2010 1TB that I would like to upgrade to work well with film editing (using programs like Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects.)
    My System's specs:
    iMac 27 Inch Mid-2010
    - 3.2 GHz Intel Core i3
    - 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3
    - ATI Radeon HD 5670 512 MB
    - Last 4 Digits of the Serial Number is JDNP
    I'm quite unfamiliar with upgrading an iMac and was hoping I could find some help here regarding what is possible to upgrade on my system?  I understand that installing RAM is quite easy, but is it possible to upgrade the Processor and Graphics Card?  And what about Installing a bigger hard drive or SSD?  Also, where do I take my iMac to get these upgrades?  Apple Store?  Hopefully I'm not sounding like a complete idiot here.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    If you are not computer savvy and have never upgraded a computer before, then you need to see what Apple can do for you, but it maybe better to take your Mac to a third party Apple authorised reseller/repair center as they will be more likely to do actual modifications to your Mac. Apple stores tend to only stick with installing stock OEM Apple hardware.
    The CPU cannot be replaced or upgraded or replaced as I believe it is soldered to the logic board.
    The GPU maybe able to be upgraded, but the only other GPU option that it can be replaced with is the the 1 GB VRAM GPU version that was a GPU chip model available during the 2010 iMac model year.
    This will be hard to locate and, probably, very expensive to purchase (at least $300 U.S.D..).
    A third party Mac compatible SSD should be able to be installed, but will be expensive, too!
    Get as large an SSD as you can afford to purchase and pay for the installation.
    If you stick with a traditional hard drive, your Mac can take up to a 3 TB hard drive.
    You CAN install additional RAM yourself. However your Mac year and model will only take a total of 16 GBs of RAM.
    Correct, compatible and reliable Mac RAM can ONLY be purchased from online RAM sources Crucial memory or OWC (http://www.macsales.com).

  • How to upgrade MAC Book Pro with OS X 10.5.8 to OS X 10.6

    I have a MAC book Pro (Intel core 2 Duo based) HW Rev 3.1. I am trying to upgrade to OS X 10.6.
    When i tried inplace upgrade it errored out with a message that I cannot upgrade. I wiped the disk clean using Disk utility and tried booting with the 10.6 DVD. I start the installation and errors out with the same error "cannnot upgrade". I did not get any further information on why it is not letting me install. I am using the CD from another MAC Book Pro I got few months back. Any help is highly appreciated.

    The install DVD from the new model MacBook Pro will not run on your older MacBook Pro. The 10.6 install DVD is machine-specific.
    You need to purchase the retail version of Snow Leopard to install OSX10.6 on your older Macbook Pro.

  • How to upgrade MacAir (late 2008) to OS X 10.6.8 without a dvd drive?

    How can I upgrade my MacAir (late 2008) OS X 10.5.8 to OS X 10.6.8 since I don't have a dvd drive?

    If you have another Mac with a DVD/CD drive, you can share that DVD drive over the local network via System Preferences -> Sharing -> Share DVD/CD
    The shared DVD/CD will then appear in your MacBook Air finder side bar, and you will be able to install your 10.6 DVD.

  • How can I connect iMac (2008) to Cintiq Companion?

    I have iMac since 2008 and this year I was given Cintiq Companion II. Actually I already had the problem with connection with another Cintiq (had to return it in the end) - they have cables that  simply don't fit iMac and I have no idea what adaptor (if any) can help! Heeelp! Please!

    No it is not a problem at all.  It's just that you never mentioned in your original post that you even contacted the manufacturer.  Have you tried "calling" them?  Did the hardware come w/a user manual?  If not, have you searched the net for one?  Do they have their own forums?
    You are using 3rd party hardware.  You need to determine from the manufacturer if it's compatible w/Macs and/or your OS.

  • How to integrate Crystal Report 2008 with java

    Currently we are using Crystal Report XI with our application, it is working fine. Now we are updating to Crystal Report 2008.
    We have build our application in enterprise archive file. There is a web archive file(.war) file in the EAR file which contains the crystal report. Inside the .war file we have reports folder which contain jsps and rpt folder. the jsps folder contains the crystalreportviewers12 folder and .jsp files. The rpt folder contain the.rpt files. The WEB-INF which is at the reports folder leavel contains the classes and lib folder.  The crystal report jars are in the lib folder and the CRConfig.xml file inside the classes folder.  I replaced all the crystal report jar with Crystal Report 2008 jars, modified the web.xml and the CRConfig.xml file accordingly. When I opened the report it gave me an error.
    When the following line was execuated in the jsp:
    reportClientDocument.open(report, 0);
    it gave me following error:

    Hello Ted,
    As per the samples in the link provided by you I identified that the following statement was missing.
    reportClientDocument.setReportAppServer(ReportClientDocument.inprocConnectionString);
    After adding this statement the jsp was not able to compile, it gave me an error:
    ReportClientDocument.inprocConnectionString cannot be resolved
    Now my queries are:
    1. What is Report Application server(RAS)?
    2. Is it required to set Report application server in JSP page? It was not required in Crystal Reports XI. If YES, then how to configure RAS inside our applications WAR file?
    3. I am using WebSphere Application Server for deploying the WEB Archive file (WAR file). The Crystal Reports 2008  library (JARS) are embedded inside the WEB-INF/lib folder. How to specify the RAS server inside thhe WAR file? Is it some XML configuration file which we have to keep at WEB-INF level? Or we have to modify the existing CRConfig.xml file?
    4. I would like to mention here that we have bundled crystalreportviewers12/ folder in our WAR file at the same level where reports JSP pages exits.
    Thanks in advance.

  • How do I reset imac G5 with OS 10.6.8 to factory settings?

    I have to reset my imac G5 that runs OS 10.6.8 to factory settings.  I am not selling it but I do want to wipe everything off the hard drive and start over.... fresh.

    Click here and follow the instructions. If the computer originally shipped with Mac OS X 10.6.8 or earlier, when you reach step 5, insert its original disk, restart with the C or Option key held down, use the Disk Utility to erase the internal drive, and install a fresh OS.
    If your computer's running 10.6.8, it's an Intel Mac and not a G5.
