Is LC ES2 easier to install and manage than 8.2 ?

Can anyone provide a comparision of the install processes and ongoing maintence of each of these versions ?

Arch Linux install and management on multiple workstations

Hello
I've been asked to install and manage an installation of 20+ computers at my school. They will be dual-boot with Windows and Linux. Even though i've never used Arch, i chose it for the install because i've heard a lot of good about it. I ask for tips on installing and managing such an installation. All the computers and their disks are identical, and i wish all my systems to be identical as well. There is a separate server with LDAP to which i have no root access, but which holds all user accounts.
Install:
I probably can suffer installing all the systems manually. I'll dedicate one workstation and create an ftp mirror so that i may do a netinstall on the others -- is this an ok idea? Also, how can i setup hostnames? Can DHCP do this?
Management:
The computers will be randomly shut down and powered on as the users please. Perhaps i can boot them all on once a fortnight and use cssh (cluster ssh) to do a system update -- but maybe there is a better way? A local mirror of the packages seems wise. I don't think it's a good idea to create a diskless setup, since if all machines are powered on at once it will significantly decrease boot time and increase network usage, to the annoyance of the users.
I ask for criticism of those ideas and additional hints.
PS. I appreciate the joke of asking someone without a Linux installation what the output of a Linux command is:) (when registering to this forum)

If I was in your position...
Setup arch on one machine, from scratch to production ready, with the following in mind.
-Decide what desktop environment and window manager(s) you want installed/want to support.
-Which applications your users will need
-Which privileges are required or groups your users will need to be in.
-Install everything, and note the names of the packages, everything installed after the base install.
Then make a simple setup sh script that calls pacman to install everything you need and check any settings/group memberships etc, checking the logs afterwords to make sure that there were no issues. You could use this to streamline setup on the rest, or just do what tomk said and clone it.
I wouldn't wait more than a week between updates. You could probably setup a cron job to run pacman and accept the defaults. You should run this on a test machine before the rest though to insure nothing breaks; that happens occasionally.
I would probably choose Gnome as the DE personally. Not that it is any better than the others, but it is what I am familiar with, and seemed a bit less cluttered than KDE last time I used it. Less clutter and easily changeable settings means less time fixing users' mistakes.
You could setup your own local arch repo/mirror and just have the rest of the machines sync from that, it'd save a lot of bandwidth and make updates a bit faster.

E1200 - Easy to install and get up running

Does not give me the coverage I would expect in my house, router is upstairs in office, weak signal on first floor, no signal in basement. Cannot use laptop or smartphone in basement, bummer. For the money I though I'd have better coverage.
What's great about it: Easy to install
What's not so great: Lack of coverage
This product has...

No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Well, there are few things you should keep in mind with regards to N routers:
1) For the best possible speeds, you need to be using WPA2-AES as your security mode. Any other security mode will see your speed/range capped.
2) Any G devices in your wireless network will tend to hamper the performance of your overall network.
3) Ensure that your router is running the latest firmware from homesupport.cisco.com The new firmware includes performance enhancements and fixes.
4) The router by default uses a channel setting of auto, which means that it would keep switching channels depending on the interference. I’d recommend you set it to a fixed channel. Usually, 1, 3, 6 and 9 give you the best performance depending on your environment of course. I’d suggest you try different channels, observing each for a while, to see which gives you the best performance. You can follow the link here on how to change channels.

Installing and Managing SCCM 2012 R2 client in workgroup

Hi,
I'm trying to install sccm 2012 r2 client on a workgroup workstation, but i can't manage to put the client working.
Already tried this solutions
http://blogs.technet.com/b/anilm/archive/2012/05/06/managing-workgroup-clients-in-configuration-manager-2012.aspx
http://eskonr.com/2013/08/sccm-configmgr-2012-manage-workgroup-computers-for-deploymentremote-tools-etc/
if i use this commands to install the client the client don't install.
ccmsetup.exe /source:C:\client SMSSITECODE=PRI SMSMP=sgcmcen.cm12lab.com DNSSUFFIX=cm12lab.com
if i use this one same happens
Ccmsetup.exe /mp:sccmserver SMSSITECODE=XXX FSP=sccmserver DNSSUFFIX=dnssuffix
If i use this one the client gets installed and the site code assigned but nothing more. It shows at the sccm console, but don't receive informations from sccm i think
Ccmsetup.exe /mp:sccmserver SMSSITECODE=XXX SMSSLP=sccmserver DNSSUFFIX=dnssuffix
on the client, clicking in Site tab and configure settings, the site code is there, clicking in Find Site returns error saying that cant find the site. on the locationservices log i'm getting
Policy prevents failover to WINS for lookup
Unable to retrieve AD Site membership
No Location reply received from xxxxxx.domain.xxx
No location reply received from xxxxxx
thks in advance

It should work just by:
Copy the client files (the whole directory) to the workgroup computer (c:\tmp\Client)
Run ccmsetup.exe /source:c:\tmp\Client SMSSITECODE=PRI SMSMP=sgcmcen.cm12lab.com DNSSUFFIX=CM12LAB.COM
Examine %windir%\ccmsetup\logs\ccmsetup.log for more information if the client doesn't install at all, possible causes might be corrupted WMI, lack of BITS (if running Windows 2003 server).. in these cases you could run WMIDiag (http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7684)
to get more info on the errors and how to fix them.
Couple of checks:
DNS is working correctly both ways? Workgroup machine can find ConfigMgr server and ConfigMgr server can find workgroup machine by name? You can test this by running
nslookup <target.fqdn> on both
Workgroup computer is in the boundary / boundary group that has a site server assigned

Installing and managing firefox in an enterprise environment using a third party desktop managment system (Novell ZEN)

We want to deploy Firefox in our enterprise environment and need to figure out a way to have the install run silently, no user interaction. We use Novell's ZEN to centrally manage our desktops and how we've done this with other installs is to create a response file, but I guess Firefox will not use response files. So, how would we accomplish this?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I bought genuine apple os x lion off of ebay. it comes as a thumb drive. is that easy to use and install?

my neighbor gave me a macbook 4.1 a1181. it has os x 10.5.6 and wont undate any farther. i purchased os x 10.7 from ebay (genuine apple) and its on a thumb drive. is it easy to install and use? do i have to leave the drive in all the time for my OS to operate?

A MacBook4,1 is a Core 2 Duo processor machine and should be able to run Lion. However, if you have the stock memory, 2 GB, it is not going to run well as Lion will use 1.5 GB of that memory. It would be best to increase to to 4 GB or perhaps 6 GB, the limit of what the machine can use.
To install Lion, restart the machine holding the Option key. When the startup screen shows you the internal drive and the flash drive with Lion, you will select the flash drive to startup. You can then use the Utilities drop down menu to select Install Mac OS X, and select the internal drive to install on. Then let the machine do its thing and install the new operating system.

How do i Install and Load PNG. textures on Photoshop CC?

I downloaded photoshop textures packs from Tumblr and I unzipped all the folders and dragged all the PNG files onto Patterns.
Was what I did the incorrect way for installing textures? I then tried to load the textures, but they somehow don't appear in the Layer Style>Textures menu
I was then told to convert the PNG files to greyscale PSD files using photoshop's batch converter. But that didn't work either!
I thought that it was going to be as easy as installing and loading brushes into @photoshopCC
Can somebody please give me in depth details (less complicated) of how to install/load textures onto photoshop (
Many thanks

Yes what you did was wrong. If what you downloaded were PNG files what you downloaded were image files. Photoshop patterns are stored in sets and these pattern set files have an extension of .pat. If you look into Photoshop Preset Pattern folders that is what you will see. You can open your PNG image in Photoshop and use menu Edit>Define Pattern on each. That will add patterns into to the loaded patterns list in Photoshop. You can then open Photoshop Preset Manager use the pull-down menu to manage Patterns. Highlight all the patterns you just defined and save a pattern set for them.

Cannot install or manage Server 2012 R2 RDS server locally but works remotely

I am working with a Server 2012 R2 standard machine and attempting to get Remote Desktop Services installed and configured on it. Using the Add Roles and Features wizard while logged on locally to the server in question resulted in the error
“Unable to connect to the server by using Windows PowerShell remoting.” However, if I use a different Server 2012 R2 machine to run the Add Roles and Features wizard remotely targeted
at the original server then I can successfully get RDS installed.
Also, after the installation has completed I cannot manage RDS locally on the server but can successfully manage it remotely from another Server 2012 R2 box. When attempting to use Server Manager locally and choose the Remote Desktop Services menu the error
message "A Remote Desktop Services deployment does not exist in the server pool."
The server appears to be functioning correctly and can be managed remotely just not locally. I can reproduce the behavior on other Server 2012 boxes in the environment.
What would cause local install and management to fail but remote management work?

Hi,
Have you added the RDS server under server manager ADD server? Does it show the server in server list?
Check whether there is any wrong IP address\hostname entry occurs under DNS record which looks\points the DNS entry successfully.

W7 install and LION issues and appearance of disk0s4.

What is going on here?
I have always used bootcamp and previous OSX successfully with Windows, until LION. Now I am able to boot to windows from a "power off".power on>option button down.select windows icon HD. But cannot do so on a simple restart (no HD's icons are displayed), and in system preferences Startup Disk pane..windows is not there, and in disk utility my windws disk is idenitfied by disk0s4 (not mounted, MS DOS Fat, no files, but 100gb size is there).
Perhaps someone has some insight or suggestins on this.
1) Installed LION using bootcamp.
2) Now, choice for duo boot is only after power down>power up>push option button, if I simply do restart it never shows the duo boot icons (with option key down).
3) Inside of Lion, the windows icon in [I]startup disc in preferences [/I]is missing
4) Disk Utility shows Mac Volume and a Volume titled disk0s4 (not mounted) and format is shown as MS-DOS FAT (but yet in windows 7 it shows it as a NTSF)
Like I said W7 does work fine and I can boot back to LION using the bootcamp icon.
-I have tried disk repair from booting off my USB Utility, Repair is not possible on the disk0s4 (like I said it does not mount, does not show files, does show the correct partition amount of 100gb.

Window 7 work fine but I cannot choose a startup disk from inside of Lion nor is there a Duo boot icons if I just hold option from a simple restart (again I do have that duo option choice of displayed hard drive icons, if I start from a power off only).
1) I am guessing that the bootcamp volume disk0s4 is not really formatted as NFTS or is not recognized by LION as an NTFS volume and so it doesn't show it mounted and is not displayed in the disk startup pane; and hence will not show up even with an option button down or a simple restart of mac.
2) Doubtful if there is a way or program that could simple covert the disk0s4 volume to NTSF?
3) I have reinstalled twice ob Bootcamp and had the same results.
I coulld leave the way it is and just power on my mini each tme I want windows, but this shouldn;t be like this correct?
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.

Hello,
I see a couple responses/questions after my original post. Sorry, but I never knew they were there until this last question arrived.
Currently I removed the Bootcamp partition to recover the hard drive space since I really had no use for windows.
I kinda of forgot the resolution, until I serached posts I made at my macmini forum back then. here is the post, and the soultion was pretty simple and straighforward..
I also include the post previous to that concerning BootChamp as a way of adding a quick boot icon to you mac menu.
Hope this helps, let me know.

My original two post from macmini fourm in 2012......................
I upgraded the HD on my mac and when I was finished, decided to leave Windows 7 off it for awhile. Two weeks ago, I had a heck of time after I reinstalled to successfully boot into it from within mac. It didn't show up on preferences start up pane, nor did it show up in the Disk Uitlity sidebar........ Very very long story.....but unless you wants specifics....it boiled down to that although W7 was indeed alive and working, the bootcamp partition appeared as a strange volume called disk0s4, an unmountable FATS 32 something or other. Even though W7 was in fact an NTSF volume (that;s what it showed within W7 and thats what it showed even on a third party Easus program.
Despite help from two apple phone techs and a genius visit....no one could correct this. Lion was loaded repeatedly from USB, self made DVD's, and partitions were expanded, shrunk, created, deleted,(my drive was formatted, reformatted, deformatted, unformatted, downformattted upformatted, and overformatted). LOL....All experts surmised that it had something to do with Recovery partition. When an Apple Tech Supervisor said "Hey now let's try first formatting the entire drive to NTSF, then format over that HFS+, then install LION fresh, set up a dummy mac account and then Bootcamp W7 and then after that works, then migrate your LION backup from time machine.........Yikes, I knew that they had no answer.
As I said......W7 existed and worked great and booted back to LION, but W7 was not seen in DiskUtilty or anything else, hence no restart to W7 from inside Mac was possible. And that was my major issue, every time that I successfully installed W7, as the last step after trying all their nonsense.
Too many hours lost over this and short of trying a south american shaman, I decided to take a leap and try something simple. Alas, BootChamp. I reloaded a fresh BootChamp copy, and it came through where Apple and a multitude of advice givers could not. Now I can reboot to W7 from inside of my mini. Bootchamp is TOPS !!!! -Don
My post concerning BootChamp and it's ability to add a quick boot and icon for windows................
I was always frustrated by the fact that there was not a reboot icon on the Mac desktop to go to windows (like the Bootcamp icon on the W7 task bar).
Well "Lo and Behold" check out BootChamp http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/28468/bootchamp
Developed by Kevin Wojniak http://www.kainjow.com
Works great, and easy to install and use. The windows icon is located at the top toolbar.
I even wrote to Kevin and he responded back to me immediately. Make sure you download the latest version from his sitehttp://www.kainjow.com , and be sure that you uncheck Next Restart Only and leave the check by Launch At Startup, if you want the icon to appear at every restart. It kind of threw me off until I did that.
The first time you boot to windows it will ask you for your password, then after that it does not any further.
Makes for one less step when you want to boot to windows from your desktop.
Bravo Kevin for developing this free tool. This should have came with Bootcamp....perhaps Apple should buy it off of him. -Don

SAP Easy Document Management installing and setting

Hi,
We are in the middle of installing the content server for DMS. Also I'd like to install SAP Easy Document Managemnt, so that my end users can access the files easily. I have a hard time finding documentation on the installation of EDMS and step by step detail of what to do.
From reading some of the notes, I think I have to
1. Download the EDMS software to my PC (will also have to install on each user's computer).
2. Also it said you have to make the settings in Customizing for DMS has to be done (but doesn't say what settings ????)
Questions,
1. Can anyone tell me where I can get the detail information about how to install and
2. Do you have any documentations on what to do with the settings in Customizing for DMS so that I can use the EDMS?
3. How do I handle the diff SAP Environments with this EDMS ?
Thank you,
Sam

Hi Samantha
I don't think there is much in the line of documentation on this. Unfortunately, for most of the DMS consultants, its been a learn through trial and error process, but if you are fairly competent technically, a lot of it is not too difficult.
1. Not much information unfortunately.
2. You will need to create an FOL document type if it doesn't exist already. ECC6 came standard with the correct EasyDMS configuration but earlier versions of SAP were not setup correctly. There are also additional authorisation applicable to easydms. If you are not sure what they are you can do an auth trace when creating a document in easydms and it should give you them, but they are RFC auth's and hierarchy creation auths.
3. Difficult to say without knowing the environments. There are some limitations with EasyDMS that may affect the DMS design, for example, you can't insert enhancements on classification because they don't appear. (or link to check tables).

Athol

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.

I bought a new laptop and used Windows Easy Transfer cable and moved all files from one computer to another. I installed iTunes and found my iTunes music Library. However, when I plug in my iPod it says it is already synced with another iTunes Library.
I don't see anything in Help that shows when you already have transfered all the files over. Why would it want to erase and sync when I already have all the music folder copied over? I didn't have an issue when I had another technician copy from one laptop to another. Home sharing is also on but not being recognized.

I suspect you only migrated the media folder instead of the complete working library. Either review the transfer process and copy over the entire iTunes folder from your old profile's music folder or see Recovering your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

Silent Install w/Admin and Managed Servers

I noticed on versions 11 and 12 of Weblogic, it seems the parameters available for a silent install have been greatly simplified to where it just does a base install. How would I go about getting it to do a silent install with an Admin server and 2 Managed servers? Do I need to do an install and update-install or is there a way I can do all this in 1 shot?
Thanks In Advance
Nic

How to install and configure management agents on Tru64 Cluster

We are busy rolling out the Oracle 10g Grid Control to our enterprise and one of our targets is a two-node Tru64 cluster with shared file systems, i.e., each node can see (read/write) the file systems concurrently. Trucluster software is responsible for the clustering management.
On node1 we have a set of databases each with its own dedicated listener; the same for node2. Each cluster managed service set has its own logical hostname. For example, we have on node1:
db1 (database)
listener-db1 (listener for db1)
node-db1 (logical hostname for db1 service)
Upon switchover or failover, the database and listener are brought up on node2 and we need to cater for this in our management agent configuration. I am trying to work out how we install and configure the management agents in such a configuration. Has anyone done this or does anyone know how to set up the agents suitably?
I have already installed the agent on one of the nodes - that worked fine, and I have even managed to start another agent up using the installed software home on the other node using "agentca -f"

You the Cluster type of configuration. It is documented in the install guide you have
