Human Interface Guidelines for Windows Azure portal

I love the design of the Windows Azure portal, it is clean, clear and to the point. I was wondering whether the Portal is based on a specific set of Human Interface Guidelines and where I could find them?

hi,
I guess it is difficult to find the HIG docs. You could refer to same threads from those page
Framework used to develop the new windows azure management portal? and
Library for Developing Azure Web Interface Style Web Sites .
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Will

Performance Tuning Guidelines for Windows Server 2008 R2 mistake?

Hi all,
I'm reading the "Performance Tuning Guidelines for Windows Server 2008 R2" and I think there is same kind of error. At page 53 there is a sub chapter "I/O Priorities" that explain how to handle I/O priorities.
In the guide it is said that in the registry I have to have a key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceClasses\{Device GUID}\DeviceParameters\Classpnp\
Where {Device GUID} I think it is the value I get in device manager under one of my disks -> properties -> details -> "Device Class GUID"
the trouble is that under the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceClasses\ I've no subkey matching my disk's device class guid! Maybe I'm drunk but I've checked every sub key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceClasses\
but neither of them as a subkey named "DeviceParameter"!!
So am I wrong?

Hi Andrea,
To find the "DeviceParameter", please try to follow the steps below:
1.Find this registry key and note the DeviceInstance value:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\DeviceClasses\
2.Find the device instance registry key under "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum" which contains information about the devices on the system and get the device interface GUID:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\USB\<hardware id>\<instance id>\Device Parameters
I hope this helps.

How to configure a proxy server for Windows Azure Tools in Visual Studio 2013

Hi Visual Studio/Azure Tools team
I would like to use the Windows Azure tools in Visual Studio 2013 to manage my Azure Web sites (Server Explorer -> Windows Azure -> Web Sites) from within my corporate network which is secured using a proxy server. Unfortunately, I am not able to use
the Windows Azure tools since the required HTTPS connection to windows azure is not going through the default configured proxy. Instead, Visual Studio tries directly to connect to port 443 which is blocked by our corporate firewall (and yes: there is no way
around using our proxy server). Other visual studio features like NuGet, updates, etc. work fine and use the configured proxy server.
So my question: How can I configure visual studio respective its Azure tools to use a proxy server instead of a direct connection? I already tried configuring the proxy server within the file devenv.exe.config but this doesn't show any effect for Windows Azure
tools.
Regards
tschaena

As we have very similar problems I consider the found solution a work arround an existing problem which will not work if corporate FW policy does not allow such changes.
In my mind, any tools in charge of dealing with some sort of FW protocols should deliver the following information, should make it absolute clear how to setup that the request packages are setup rigth at the first time.
a) proxy server
b) proxy port
c) proxy user
d) proxy users-password
e) proxy.auth.Preference="BASIC"
And for moste tools (including Visual Studio and AZUR Tools) it is absolut unclear
a) how to setup that on a per tools basis
b) OR who inherits this information from whom i.e. use the same as IE does, what if we use FireFox or any other browsers?
I understand that developers requested to cure such problem areas will often have difficulty to gain all required elemenst used to realy test the solution.
But I can tell you: I loos more time figthing down the FW setups for my clients. WHat I do at home in a sniff, takes ages to be realised by all the various clients on the market where each has to deliver the same sort of information but actually does not,
or has it just somewhere, but not in the vicinity of the demanding user.
Good examples i.e. NetBeans IDE where the Option Menu shows very clearly what information is required to pass through a FW/Proxy; but even there, the hint to start with a BASIC authentication schema is not part of this OPTION menu and must be added a JAVA
environment value. But at least, it works.

SAPGUI for Windows via Portal - problem with frame

We are launching SAPGUI for Windows via Portal to drive single sign-on via AD. Our problem is that when SAPGUI launches, it is contained within an IE browser frame that causes some of the SAPGUI screens to not fit on the screen well. Those same screens fit just fine if we launch SAPGUI directly.
Is there any way to launch SAPGUI from Portal, with SSO enabled, but without the IE frame around it?

Lonny,
The best way to authenticate users when they logon using SAP GUI for Windows, is to use SNC authentication in SAP GUi. Then, the browser iview will launch the GUI and the GUI will authenticate the user using their AD credentials issued during the Windows logon. You will need to setup an SNC library on both the ABAP system which the user is logged onto, and the workstation where SAP GUI is installed.
If you don't use SNC, and you just launch SAP GUI for Windows from browser, then an SSO2 ticket is used to authenticate the user to the ABAP stack, and this is not secure due to the fact that the SAP GUI session which is used to pass the SSO2 ticket is not protected - anybody can intercept the SAP GUI session, take the SSO2 ticket from this traffic and logon as that user - clearly this is bad security and needs SNC to make it secure.
Thanks,
Tim

Charged for Windows Azure free trail

What's going on I activated the free trail which from the sound of it is FREE, I got an email saying the trail has ended and my account will be closed okay that's all good but I just looked and was charged 86 dollars from Microsoft for Windows Azure. I really
don't have that money right now and I really need someone to help me with being charged for a free service.

Hi,
The credit card is not billed and during the free trial you’ll have a spending limit set to $0, but from my experience, if your bill is over $200, then you'll be charged, about this billing issue, I would suggest you contact support, it
is a best choice, Please contact support team by creating a support ticket at
http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/support/contact/ Or if that doesn't work because you don't have an active subscription you will need to contact general customer support to have them create a
support ticket for you

Human Interface device for 6280

Any add-on software to activate human interface device for Nokia 6280? Blue tooth section is greyed, but some other cheaper brands than Nokia have this active! Any help!

Cheers, there is also a more simple one here which works out of box but it's functionality is very limited.
http://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2006/07/06/java-and-usb.html?page=2
> And, as a last resort, that Java daemon (I believe
the APC UPS installation program installs and starts
one, anyway) can always be decompiled and inspected
(although I would have qualms about the legality of
it).
I'm curious to know more about this.
I've just looked in the powerChute instilation directory,
I can't see anything java'y of java'ish. Can you elaborate on this a little more please.
Thanks again for all the help. Still holding out for HID although your links are good and appreciated.

Does windows azure service management APIs work for windows azure pack setup as well ?

Does Service Management REST APIs(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/ee460799.aspx) for Azure work with
Windows Azure Pack as well ?

Hi,
Windows Azure Pack is basically a proof of concept.
So, it will not have all the features that Windows Azure has in the cloud.
Some services such as Cloud services & storage services are not available.
for some available API support:

Coldfusion licensing for Windows Azure

please can you advise the licensing options for Coldfusion on the Windows Azure platform. Specifically with Coldfusion Enterprise how many instances, virtual machines/ cores can you run Coldfusion 10/11 on.
many thanks

As you are having 4 shared cores among 2 virtual machines, ideally one user license key would be needed for each of the virtual machines.
Reason-
Such sharing among different virtual machines won't work wrt product license keys.
For every virtual machine at least one user license key would be needed.
Half user license key consideration for 1st virtual machine and other half user license key consideration for 2nd virtual machine, can't be feasible.

USB interface locked for windows-based application via VMWare fusion 3

recently I found some applications based on windows XP (I used Vmware fusion 3 on mac OS X 10.6.3, macbook pro) can't find the h/w connected to USB interface..e.g.
I have a 3G wireless modem card, the console in windows (of course based on virtual machine VMWARE) says no any modem card founded when I connected to my mac pro with USB interface..
another case is I use ebank client s/w with U-key.. of course doesn't find any U-KEY when i insert it too..
It seems that the USB interface is locked when I use windows-base application via virtual machine, right?

yes, your suggestions are very useful.. I tried again..it asked me to select if connecting to "windows" or "mac".. I made the mistakes before.. Now I selected "windows" and it was okay..
btw, one more question about the bridge connection.. when I dial through my 3G modem card (based on windows XP), I just only use IE as the web browser.. Safari is not ok. I assumed that I should make a bridge connection between 3G modem card and LAN connection, right? If yes, how to do it? I can't select two connections once a time in control panel..
Thanks for your answer!

Please help.+
Note: The ecplise plug ins are installed properly.

I'm afraid that I only built QT for CE once and that was many years ago, so I am hardly an expert.
I would search the entire QT code base and see if you can figure out what it thinks std::Lockit actually is. I would still try adding my own std::Lockit::~Lockit just to see if you can resolve the compile errors (this would obviously still need to
be resolved, but at least you would know that is your only problem).
As far as static linking, try to figure out where the /MD (or /MDd) compile option is coming from in the configuration scripts and change it to /MT (/MTd).
You might also look here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16770179/what-std-lockit-does. That sounds like you might have an interator debugging/secure SCL mismatch.

User Interface mode for windows 8

I was trying to install Driver San Francisco game and had quite a lot of problems. This installer works with previous Windows. But failed with following error message while installing 'Install Anywhere'.
Installer UI Mode Error
The installer cannot run in this UI mode. To specify the interface mode, user the -i command-line option, followed by the UI mode identifier. The valid UI modes identifiers are GUI, Console, and Silent.
The supported platform doesn't include 'Windows Server 8'.
What could be the issue?

Wow that actually worked... I dont do that anymore because it never works but it worked.
THANKS
