Is it possible to link data across different/multiple PWA sites leveraging Master Project with the Subprojects feature?

A couple different questions /similar scenarios
1) Is it possible with Project Server 2010 to have several sites (http://server/pwa1 and
http://server/pwa2 for example) communicate and build a Master Project at a third (or X) site (http://server/pwa3)
2) Is it possible with Project Server 2010 to have several sites (http://server/pwa1 and
http://server/pwa2 for example) communicate and build a Master Project at one of the original sites (http://server/pwa1 (for example))
OR is there a better way to do this/more preferred way to do this. 
We found this (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/projectserver/en-US/2379c3f2-6c80-46d7-8eac-3bc2ccb2d908/master-projectsubproject-with-sites-in-pwa-2010?forum=projectserver2010general)
but its not what we're looking for
3a) Issue/Example -
We want to set up a site (http://server/pwa100) for just the president of the company - all the schedules of the subsites (/pwa99 + /pwa98) create a feed into an integrated master schedule/master project with subprojects(located
in /pwa100). 
3b-1) We also want to set up sub sites (http://server/pwa99 and
http://server/pwa98) for each division VPs (and specific other people). These two sites would only allow specific user's project files to be viewed by each other...
Can their project files have linkages between the two project sites (/pwa99 and /pwa98)? Meaning if user1 logs in to /pwa99 can he see a project file (given that they have permission) from /pwa98 in the same instance?
3b-2) Can they see the project file in ProjPro and/or PWA ???
3c) is it possible to have:
+ /pwa100 (pres)
++/pwa99 & /pwa98 (two vps)
+++/pwa97 & /pwa96 & /pwa95 & /pwa-etc (minions)
each rolling up to the next level (level 3 rolls up to level 2 which can roll up to level 1)

kbwrecker,
I agree with Dale. Having multiple sites will make this difficult to set up. 
Not knowing how your Custom Groups/Categories have been set up, have you looked into using the "Project Permissions" feature to share projects. These permissions are 'additive' to the category permissions, so you could start out with people looking at the
projects they are authorized to via categories, and then let them share/add people as needed basis. This will also satisfy the requirement of not-loading the projects with resources..
And finally, the department and categories need not align, except that when projects from one dept are shared t another dept resource, the visibility of custom fieds will be affected.
Hope I did not go off on a tangent there :)

Meant to get back to this earlier - your answer is close (because its what we currently do..sort-of)
From my understanding of this issue the users are separated by department and can only see specific projects; however, when they try to share departments between users (so they can see their projects (dept a sees dept b projects)) this works - but there
is a bigger issue/main issue.  
main issue: when dept B adds a new project dept. A cannot see the new project in dept B.
This can be eliviated by removing the user/s and re-adding them to the permission structure of the deptment but overall doing this several times based on user/s and projects being added it gets to be cumbersome and just plain annoying.
Any help/additional thoughts would be great

    Thanks for the reply. My particular use of iPhoto is for documents that I have photographed from archives, libraries, and other repositories across the US and Europe. For each one I have added a complete citation and notes. I am so relieved to hear that all my years of work on this will migrate with the new app!

    why is it ok for a verizon wireless service representative to lie to a customer? I went over my monthly data and i called to ask for some help with the overage because i was barely over. They told me they would take care of it and sold me on a shared data plan that would result in 2gb less data but told me i would save 20$ a month. I agreed and recieved my next statement and to my suprise my bill actually went up 15$ a month and i talked to several people and they all told me there is nothing that can be done to get back on the plan i was on and they can not even give me a discount to get me back to what i was paying. They can only offer me a convenience credit. I will be cancelling service.

    ajwest101,
    We do not want to see you go. I truly apologize for any misinformation regarding your plan. Let's investigate into this a little further. What plan were you on? What plan were you switched to? If you look at the detailed billing online of your previous bill do you see any additional charges other then the plan?

    So I can't format the disk in the Time Capsule
    Deconnevt and then connecting the power tp the Time Capsule gives also no solution.
    What can I do?
    Joe

    I listed the commands.. that is how you manually mount the disk.. follow exactly the commands I gave you.
    In finder use top menu, go, connect to server.
    Type in the following.
    AFP://TCname or AFP://TCIpaddress (obviously you replace with the actual name or the actual IP address).
    If that fails..
    try
    SMB://TCname
    Here is the screenshot.
    tardis4 being the name of my TC.
    It should then ask you for your credentials.
    And it should remember them in the keychain and be able to then get TM to connect.

    If i open project with the settings for 1080p video and then add to it 720p video, how can i make stabilization for it? (When i open another video with the different sequence settings it does not allow me to make stabilization)
    Is there any way of working in one sequence with the different settings of the video?

    Footage that does not match the sequence setting nest first then add the Warp.

  • I have bought a docking station and my iphone works fine but my ipod mini seems to fit on the connection but only works intermittently. Is it a different connection or is there a problem with the ipod?

    I have bought a docking station and my iphone works fine but my ipod mini seems to fit on the connection but only works intermittently. Is it a different connection or is there a problem with the ipod?

    I think that is happening is that the microphone is on during this recording.  If you play the music through the iPhone speakers, it will record this sound, albeit at very poor quality.  If you say anything (or laugh uproariously as I did while watching the app in action, then that, too, get recorded.
    I am still looking for the solution we all want, which is to save the audio in reasonable quality.
    Anyone out there with some ideas?

  • Workflow on long project - is it possible to link sequences across project files?

    I'm starting a long form project.  Obviously, I'll need to break it down into sections.
    I'm editing a documentary, and the bulk of the film is interveiws with five different characters.  They are all shot with multiple cameras.  I understand how to use the muti-cam editing feature of CS5.5, and it's great.  But, is it possible to create a multi-cam sequence in one project, and then import that sequence into another project, and retain the ability to go back to the multi-cam project and make changes to the edit, and those changes will be automatically updated in the second project?  This seems like it should be possible as it's so similar to the dynamic link feature with After Effects, but it just doesn't seem to work.  After I import the MC edit sequence into a new project it's locked down to the original edit, ie. changes to the original multi-cam sequnece are not updated in the second project.
    I know I can do this if I perform all my editing inside one project, but this seems cumbersome.  This file will have so many clips, bins and sub-folders it's going to be hard to keep track of where I'm at. So it seems to me that by breaking this work down into seperate project files, then assembling them into one main edit project just makes more sense.
    Thanks in advance!

    But, is it possible to create a multi-cam sequence in one project, and then import that sequence into another project, and retain the ability to go back to the multi-cam project and make changes to the edit, and those changes will be automatically updated in the second project?
    No, each project is an island. What I mean is that once you import one project into another one, it merges into the "host" project and becomes part of it; all connection to the original project is broken. Sounds like you might be familiar with how Avid works (or used to, maybe? Been awhile.) where a project bin was a standalone file, and if you opened it in another project and made changes, those changes would be made in all projects using the bin/sequence. So, I'm afraid that your proposed workflow won't, well, work.
    That said, there's nothing wrong with working on a bunch of individual projects (might be smart, actually), and then merging those in a final assembly project. The same rule applies, though: any changes you make to the original projects won't be made in the host project, so you'll want to save that until finishing.

  • Is it possible to cluster appliances across different subnets?

    We are attempting to cluster two appliances across different subnets in order to provide greater survivability. Although we were able to cluster the appliances, the manageability of the appliances has become somewhat impaired. We've opened ports 443, 22 and 2222 between the two appliances. The appliances are C350s running AsyncOS 7.1.3-010. Are we missing something?
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Rob,
    Are these appliances communicating using IP addresses? If yes, in order to a join cluster,using IP addresses there must be a reverse DNS  (PTR) record configured in DNS server for the Cisco IronPort appliance.Please check that if the the reverse lookup works. If not, it might be another issue.

  • I just lost all recent updates to my iCal from the last days. Can this possibly happen ??? What can I do to restore iCal with the most recent updates?

    Hello All, yesterday afternoon I just lost all recent updates to my iCal from the last days. How can this possibly happen ??? It may have occured after I chose the Refresh function after I had problems searching my iCal for a particular event. I think my iPhone was also not properly synched in the morning but I didn't pay it much attention and opened iCal on my MacBookAir instead.
    How can I prevent this from happening again?
    What can I do to restore iCal with the most recent updates?

    Random glitch.  It doesn't matter; if you didn't backup the data, then you can't recover the data.
    In the future, for any 'important' data, back up that data regularly.  Forward the 'important' text messages to your email.  Trasnfer your photos & videos to your computer, etcetera.

  • Right-clicked links aren't marked and I cannot do other things with the Options window open

    After upgrading to Firefox 4 yesterday, I've been able to solve most of my problems by changing settings or installing various add-ons. However, I still have two problems that I haven't managed to find solutions for.
    Previously, when I right-clicked a link, the link would be marked with a dotted border that made it very clear exactly which link had been right-clicked. This marking still appears if I use the Tab key to go to a certain link, but if I use the mouse like I usually do, without using Tab, the marking is nowhere to be seen. Is there a way of getting this marking back?
    I also have a problem with the Options window (the one found under Tools > Options). When I have that window open, I can't seem to use the Firefox window that I opened it from without closing the Options window. This is very annoying, as I might want to go to some website with information about certain options while the Options window is open. It also means that if I push the 'Help' button in the Options window, the help is opened in a new window instead of in a new tab in the previous window. I really don't like being forced to use several windows like that, and if I recall correctly, it wasn't like this in previous versions of Firefox. Is there any way of changing it?

    I've encountered the problem with the stretched images.
    I solved it by making sure the images that I was importing were set to "Original Size" in the fitting.
    (I initially had my images "Scale to Fit" in the box, I had larger images then the final box size)
    You just have to go back and make your images are sized horizontlly to the boxs width.
    Stats for image below:
    Box size = 125 w X 185 h
    Image size = 125 w X 125 w
    Fitting = Original Size
    Position = top middle
