Howto remove & (re)install Clusternode OES2 SP3

We have a 2 node sles10.3+oes2sp3 cluster.
We have some problems with the second node. To make a long story short, we have 2 options now:
1. reinstall the second node or
2. add a third node and remove the second one afterwards.
We have a shared storage via iSCSI - both nodes are iscsi initiators. We have 1 NSS Volume which is cluster enabled.
Our Questions:
1. Is there anything with regard to the sdb partition we have to take care about or can I just follow the steps in the ncs docu.
2. What happens to all the objects in eDir (oes objects, node2 object, ncp object etc.)? How can we remove the ALL objects related to the second node?
3. Which option would you recommend and how would u do it? Anything dangerous we have to take care about?
thx,
hugo

Well, having done this before myself (I messed up the 7th server installation because I wasn't paying attention).
So here's what I did:
1) I ran the ndsconfig -rm to remove the "messed up" cluster server from the tree.
2) cleaned up the eDir objects for THAT SERVER (meaning the PHYSICAL node objects--NOT any of the cluster stuff). So I basically searched (via consoleone) for: *servername* and deleted those objects.
3) I then reinstalled SLES 10/OES2 (without the NCS pattern), and gave it the same name/IP and put it into the proper eDir container this time.
4) Then I installed the NCS pattern (see my guides for how i did my install).
For the SDB partition, really the only thing you need to worry about is that (prior to installing NCS pattern):
a) Does the server "see" the SBD partition. In my case I use MPIO, so I made sure that a:
multipath -ll
command showed the SBD partition
I think there's the sbdutil -f or something command that you can run
2) For your "cleanup" I just used consoleone, "find" (make sure to start at the O=whatever in your tree and check the box for "search subcontainers) and then searched for *servername*. You do NOT want to delete any of the cluster objects (although I think they would have different names anyway). If my memory is correct.
I would not bother with option #2 (adding a third node and then deleting the 2nd one).
I hope this helps.

I think you're getting your Mac OS X versions mixed up as Snow Leopard
(10.6.x) was supported from the beginning with AFP in OES2 SP2 and
later. See
http://www.novell.com/products/opene...owleopard.html
It's OS X Lion (10.7.x) that requires the November 2011 (and earlier)
patches for AFP in OES2 SP3 but it is supported from beginning with OES11.

Problems with OWA after installing Exchange 2010 SP3

Hi,
I just installed Exchange 2010 SP3 on a SBS 2011 machine. The installation completed successfully, but after the installation OWA isn't working anymore. When I browse to OWA I get the following message:
I did a reset for the OWA vritual directory, but nothing helps..

Hi Alelieveld,
When you reset a virtual directory, the virtual directory is removed and a new virtual directory with default settings is created.
After you reset the VD, did you restart IIS?

After installing Windows XP SP3, iTunes and Quicktime crash at startup

I use iTunes almost every day, and until now have had almost no problems. But as of Sunday afternoon 5/11/2008, I found iTunes crashed on startup. Soyon after, I discovered Quicktime had the same problem. For both apps, I tried rebooting, upgrading, uninstalling/reinstalling, running Norton 2008 virus scan and registry cleaner. Same problem no matter what I did.
I just noticed, though, that my Windows Update (which I have naively set to automatic) history shows that, on that same day, it automatically installed Windows XP SP3. Coincidence... hmm.
So while I patiently wait for the uninstaller to complete the removal of SP3, I'm wondering if anyone else has had similar problems.

Great link, thanks for posting it. I followed the advice therein, but unfortunately it didn't help. For the record, here's what I've done recently:
0) Removed SP3.
1) Removed all of the following:
Apple Mobile Device Support
Apple Airport Express
Apple Software Update
Bonjour
Quicktime
iTunes
2) Deleted all remaining folders related to the above apps from c:\Program Files.
3) Ran Norton 360 (2008) registry cleanup.
4) Ran Norton 360 (2008) virus scan (nothing found).
5) Deleted the following folders (Angela is the user account):
c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple
c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Apple Computer
c:\Documents and Settings\Angela\Application Data\Apple
c:\Documents and Settings\Angela\Application Data\Apple Computer
c:\Documents and Settings\Angela\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple
c:\Documents and Settings\Angela\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer
6) Rebooted.
7) Downloaded and installed iTunes 7.6.2.
8) Rebooted (just coz I love rebooting).
9) Tried to execute iTunes, get error dialog: "QuickTime Player has encoutered a problem and needs to close."
10) Tried to execute QuickTime, get same dialog.
At this point I'm thinking I've got a bad DLL under c:\Windows...

OES2 SP3 DNS/DHCP Console

Just a quick note that currently, the latest DNS/DHCP Console isn't
available for download on Novell's site. You have to get it off of your
OES2 SP3 server instead.
http://servername/welcome/client-software.html
Then you can follow TID 7006450 to configure it so you can view leases.

If you do not have the novell-dnsdhcp-javaconsole RPM installed but do
have access to the OES2 SP3 media (and don't want to install DNS/DHCP on
a server just to get the latest JavaConsole) then on a Linux box you can
extract the latest code via:
rpm2cpio /path/to/novell-dnsdhcp-javaconsole-2.0.1-0.33.<arch>.rpm |
cpio -idmv
(where <arch> is i586 or x86_64 depending on 32- or 64-bit - note same
files included in both)
You can then take the relevant DNSDHCP_SA.zip file and use it to install
the JavaConsole on your admin workstation(s).
HTH.

OES2 SP3: Master sends poison pill upon creation of new volumes

I'm experiencing problems when creating a clustered pool and volume on
OES2 SP3. After assigning a new FC LUN which is available on all nodes
I'm using iManager to create a new pool and volume on the master node as
described in the documentation. However, at some point in the procedure
the master starts killing other nodes. Inspection with nssmu shows that
the new pool is just available on some nodes. After a reboot everything
is working nicely.
Should I send the cluster to maintenance mode prior to adding a new
volume? How can I force OES2 to scan for new pools other than rebooting
the system? Is there a known problem or a TID for this behavior?

Sorry, but right now I'm completely confused. What are you talking about?
From cluster administration manual:
"10.1.1 Naming Conventions for Cluster Resources
Cluster resource names can be up to 63 characters. Novell
Cluster Services supports only
alphanumeric characters and the underscore character in
cluster resource names:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwx yz0123456789_
Special characters, such as the following, are not supported
in cluster resource names:
!@#$%&()
Because the NSS pool name and Linux volume names are
automatically used in the cluster resource
name, do not use special characters !@#$%&() in names of NSS
pools or Linux POSIX volumes that
you plan to cluster enable."
I did not use special characters in names of cluster resources, pools or
volumes. So will my problem be still related to this TID?
I will gave to go and check with CRM debugging.

ZDM 7 on OES2 sp3

Has anyone gotten ZDM 7 to work on OES2, sp3? I tried installing on 2 machines and got 2 different "non-fatal" errors which must have been fatal because I can't start the services. I only want workstation importing, thats it. Errors have to do with jclient/dclient, and some other things. I can post the real text from the install log if anyone has an idea. novell-zmd-awsi status says unknown file, and same for ZFDstart and ZFDstop in /opt/novell/zenworks/bin/whatever...
Thanks.

Along with Shaun's suggestion as it's related... also curious which ZDM install media you used (i.e. 7 SP1 IR4b)?

IFolder keeps prompting upgrade after OES2 SP3

Hi everyone,
After applying OES2 SP3 our iFolder server keeps prompting upgrade on
Windows XP clients. It suggests upgrading to 3.8.0.4 but when you let it
run, it shows windows installer options install and uninstall, there is
a space where the upgrade button should be. Neither option works.
I've also downloaded from the web server page the ifolder client, but
doesn't seem to be that version number.
Is there any way to disable the annoying prompt?
Thanks,
Miguel.

Section 6.12 of the iFolder 3.8.4 Admin Guide lists a way to disable the upgrade prompt.
Edit the unix-version.config, mac-version.config, and/or version.config (aka windows-version.config) files located in either /opt/novell/ifolder3/lib/simias/web/update or /opt/novell/ifolder3/lib64/simias/web/update.
Replace the <version> </version> section of the .config files with the level of client your users already have. Then they should not be prompted to upgrade.

HP 2000 - 2c12NR: Removed Win8, Installed Win7 64-bit; Touchpad Problems

Greetings HP forums!
My name is Bob and I am having an issue with an HP 2000 laptop. A friend requested I remove Windows 8 from a laptop, and install Windows 7 since he was much more familiar with the old GUI.
I installed Win7 64-bit and am having issues with the touchpad consistently working correctly. I have let Windows use its generic drivers, and have installed the Win8 Synaptics touch pad driver/utility. Both drivers produce the same problematic results. The strange issues I am having are as follows:
- Touchpad works fine for 5-30 minutes
- Touchpad becomes inoperable for varying amounts of time; 1-5 minutes
- Touchpad starts working again, but requires higher than normal pressure to work OR only works on the RIGHT side of the touchpad
- Touchpad stops working again, and then after swirling/twirling my finger around the touchpad it will start moving itself without any further input to the Touchpad at all. Everytime it starts moving on its own, it exhibits the same behavior. It moves only vertically, in a perfectly straight line, roughly 2/3 the heighth of the screen, and is very choppy skipping up and down; This lasts for 10-30 seconds.
- After it's done 'ghosting' the cursor up and down, the Touchpad is usable again, but is very finnicky. It requires excessive pressure or response is very laggy/inaccurate to the touch you are inputting.
- Typically after a reboot it works perfectly fine for a short amount of time, and then starts acting as I have described above.
I have tried altering any and all of the settings in the Synaptics driver utility to no avail. I have uninstalled/reinstalled, enabled/disabled the hardware/drivers numerous times. Each time either drivers are removed and installed it will work fine for a short amount of time and then go back to acting crazy.
I thought the ribbon cable may have been loose, so I opened the laptop up far enough to check the ribbon cable for the Touchpad. All was well, everything was snug.
At this point I am thinking there is an issue with the Touchpad itself. While I am waiting for a reply I am going to try reinstalling Win7 since I have exhausted all other ideas I have.
Any and all information is greatly appreciated.
Thank You,
Bob Melchert
ChicagoLand Geeks
*EDIT*
I just started the process to re-install Windows. Once files were finished loading and the initial install screen had loaded, (where you select Language, Time/Currency Format, and Keyboard input method) the Touchpad immediately started moving vertically on itss own. Once it stopped moving on its own, I am only able to move the cursor vertically in the spot where it was moving itself; Any input to the Touchpad only allows vertical movement. This is the first time I have encountered this issue. Since this is happening with Windows loaded into RAM, I am becoming more certain this is a hardware issue.

Hello disgrntld,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand there is no audio coming from the computer. Before anything else, I would suggest a manual uninstall and reinstall of the sound driver:
1. Go into Device Manager, then "Sound, video and game controllers".
2. Look for the Audio driver. Right-click on it and select "Uninstall". Do not restart the computer.
3. Restart the computer. It will force the computer to detect the hardware and install an appropriate driver.
Please let me know your results. Thanks!

HOWTO remove an entry from the node list...

Hi all,
does anybody know, howto remove an entry from the node list TAB ?
I recentyl updated my system to 11.5.10.2 including enabling autoconfig.
Now, concurrent processes won't start, because of two entries in the node list tab (yes, it's a single node installation!). There are two entries, one with the IP-address and one with the hostname.
Can somebody tell me howto remove this obsolete entry?
Thanks.

There are two part when installing WebEnt.. The first one is the web server part where it installs the fortecgi.exe or other web server components. This should be installed where the web server is going to be running. This is usually not you development server. The second part is the http library and web designer part. This should be installed on the development server. The http library need to go through a install of its own to make it part of the central environment. After that all the developers will have access to the http library and all they will need to do is install the Web desinger part.
Hope this helps.

TS1702 How we can remove/un-install an app from iPad?

Can someone tell that how to remove the installed app from iPad?

Press and hold any of the apps on your homescreen and after a couple of seconds or so they should start to shake. Then press the 'x' in the left corner to delete the ones that you don't want, and when you've finished deleting press the home button so as to stop the shaking. If you don't get the 'x' on any of the apps that you've downloaded (you can't delete built-in apps) then check that Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps isn't set 'off'

Migrate NSS volume data from OES2-SP1 to OES2-SP3 server fails

Hello forums
I have a senario where we want to use miggui to migrate all files/folder
and trustees, to e new server using miggui.
When we try to migrate from the existing "VOL" from the old OES2-SP1
server, we get an error on the miggui log running on the new OES2-SP3
server like this:
ERROR - FILESYSTEM:migfiles:Error: nbackup: (libtsafs.so 6.50.0 269) No
data sets can be found or the resource is not available.
In the miggui the Volumes can be dragged and dropped fine.
I do not by not know the old OES2-SP1's patch level, nor the OES2-SP3's
at this time.
Any ideas of what causes this error?
- Michael

Have you looked at this?
Troubleshooting data migration issues with miggui
I'd check and maybe see if the sms/tsa code is working properly on the OES2 SP1 server.

That is precisely the WRONG thing to do. You should never delete, but uninstall.
Now you need to look for, download and run the Adobe CS Cleaner tool.
