Is this hardware enough to run 5 VMs

I want to run 5 VMs for test only (no production, no expectation of availability) on the following hardware:
Dell PowerEdge 2900III server with 2 x Quad Core CPU @2.0 GHz, 32GB RAM and 4x 73 GB 15k rpm SCSI direct attach storage
The VMs will run OEL5.0, Oracle 11g. My idea is to create a test setup with one VM running grid control repository/OMS and 4 VMs for testing RAC/Dataguard/cloning etc. Is the hardware configuration enough or is it a totally stupid idea?
Thanks...

Hey,
It should work with this hardware.
You need to go BIOS and - in advanced setting - go in processor - and select - visualization - enable it.
save the changes and exit.

I have recently purchased an i5 27 inch Imac with 8gb ram, will this be enough to run logic studio and record vocals?

I have recently stretched my budget as far as I can and have purchased my first Imac! I am really excited about getting it , its an i5 2.7ghz and i went for the 8gb ram upgrade. My question is will this be enough to run logic studio to produce music and record vocals?
If you have a similar setup please le me know how it runs for you. I would also like to hear about the average number of plugins you can run and any other tip to get the most out of your processor.
Logic Studio will be the only big program running on it, I plan to get a blue icicle converter and a blue condenser microphone for vocal recording so I hope the Imac is up to the task!
Hope to hear from somebody real soon.

You should have no problem at all. That iMac is more than capable of running Logic.

Is This Good Enough To Run Logic?

Hey all,
Just joined here, and I'm loving the amount of information on here, makes a very good read during lunch break
Right, here's my scenario, hopefully some of you seasoned Mac'ers can help me out with this one.
A friend of mine just told me a friend of theirs (blah blah) has a G4 PowerMac for sale, which is the one with two CPU's clocked at approximately 800MHz, and she's upgraded the RAM to 3GB. I'm not sure what OS version is on it, but it does already have Logic Pro 8 installed on it. Is it really good enough for speedy editing, or will I be waiting ages for it to convert and process stuff?
Thanks in advance, I appreciate all help given

MBP hardware needed to run parallels

I am looking at purchasing a MBP for school so mobility is important. I want to get the 13", but this is only offered with the dual core and the 500 GBs of memory. Is this hardware sufficent enough to run paralles with out bogging down the computer, or should i look at going with the bigger 15" quad core and 750 GBs of memeory?

The 500 and 750 GBs you are talking about is not Menory (RAM). It is the storage space of the internal hard drive.
Neither will effect the overall performance of the unit.
Both the 13" and 15" models come with a standard 4GBs of RAM (Memory) installed.
I have not used Parallels, I use VMware Fusion which is another Virtual Machine software package.
With the standard memory, 4GBs of RAM, you should be able to use either of those virtual machine packages if you run only 1 or 2 Mac OS X programs at the same time as the virtual machine. And it really depends on what version of Windows you are going to run. Running Windows XP would be fine because it uses less resources then Windows 7 or Vista.
If you wanted to run Win Vista or 7 then you may need to upgrade the RAM (Memory) to 8GBs (but do that yourself after you get the MBP. Apple wants $200 for the upgrade from 4 to 8GBs and you can buy it yourself for under $50).
You could also use Apple's Boot Camp to partition the hard drive and install Win 7 as a standalone OS that you run outside of the Mac OS X, a Dual Boot system.

Is my external hard drive powerful enough to run my macbook without any working internal harddrive?

A couple months ago my laptop suffered a crippling blow to its internal HD. I assessed the problem and fixed it by installing my software disc to a 500 gb WD external HD and worked with it this way for about a month. Now the same has happened with the external HD and I can not access my Macbook. My question is if I shell out for a new internal hard drive will it hold the same fate? or was the external WD Hard drive device just not powerfull enough to run a computer?

Hi ..
Several things to try ..
Try a different USB cable.
Try restarting your Mac.

Cannot Install this Hardware - The system cannot find the file specified.

I got an 8G ipod touch last week. When I plug it into USB port on my PC, a Found New Hardware Wizard box pops up with "Cannot Install this Hardware", "There was a problem installing this hardware: Apple Mobile Device USB Driver", "An error occurred during the installation of the device", "The system cannot find the file specified.", "Click Finish to close the wizard.". If I go ahead and click finish, the device disappears and a couple of seconds later tries to install again and the box pops up again. However, if I leave the box alone, the ipod does actually appear in itunes and I can sync music to it, so all is not lost Any ideas though how to stop this error box popping up? The USBAAPL.SYS driver exists - I don't know what file it cannot find. Thanks.

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
if you have a Leopard OSX DVD you can use it to install the BootCamp 2.0 drivers and later use the BC Update 2.1 for XP to further update the drivers.
If not (still running OSX Tiger) there are two possibilities:
use this direct download link for the latest ATI/AMD Mobility Driver package http://ati.amd.com/online/mobilecatalyst/
or use the ModTool found here http://www.driverheaven.net/modtool.php in conjunction with the ATI/AMD Desktop Driver package.
You should also consider getting and installing the latest (June 2008) DirectX 9 package from Microsoft.
Hope it helps with your gaming problems.

Cannot Install This Hardware (Urgent!!)

I just got an ipod nano as a present today and i went to put music on it and i can't even get it connected to the computer. When i plug the nano in i get the 'found new hardware' wizard. But when it goes to search for the software to install it i get "The Hardware was not isntalled because the wizard cannot find the necessary software"
i've had an ipod mini for a year and a half before this so i thought it might've been the old itunes/ipod software so i uninstalled all of that and reinstalled with the new software. That didn't help and ive tried that several times.
ive also tried using the manual disc thing (pressing the menu and select button then pressing the select and play) and ive tried restarting the nano.
i thought maybe it was the wire that connected it so i went and got the wire from my mini and that won't work either.
help!! im leaving on a trip tomorrow morning and need to get this fixed today

+It recognize it as a digital still camera but when it goes to transfer the drivers it say Cannot Install this Hardware Data error ( cyclic redundancy check). If I go to the device manager it say the drivers for this device are not installed. (code 28) any one have any clue on what to do+
"Cyclic redundancy check" can indicate disk damage on the PC. If the disk damage is in the area of driver files, you can get similar messages from your device manager. Seen this happen once or twice with USB Mass Storage Drivers and iPods here at Discussions (even down to the code 28), although it was pretty rare as causes for iPod errors go.
So, it might be worth running a Chkdsk over your C Drive:
How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage?
If so, does that get you past the problem with the iPhone?

Is MacBook Air powerful enough to run Creative Suite?

I have just about about finished my 30 day Creative Cloud Trial and will sign up. However, I am also in teh process of choosing a new macbook to run it on. I don't have a laptop at the moment I have been using my iMac for everything. What I want to know is, is the new MacBook Air which was launched yesterday powerful enough to run Adobe creative applications? A macBook Pro seems like the obvious choice but as this is my second computer and I wont use it as much as my iMac I am mainly focusing on weight and price - I wil mainly use it when travelling a couple of months each year but I still need to work effectively with Creative Cloud. Can you please advise?

Yes, any MAC which is above 10.6.8 can run Creative Cloud.
The tech specs for various CS 6 applicatons can be checked over here : http://www.adobe.com/products/creativecloud/tech-specs.html
Hope this will help you decide better.!!

Macsafe 85w still not enough when running Heavy program on Macbook pro 2011 Quad Core

Is there any official announcement from apple on how macsafe 85w works & design flow or diagram..??
We know the magsafe 85w is not enough to run macbook pro quad core i7 and their family.. But there must be some reason why apple only allow maximum 85w only.. rite
I run this multiple test on my Macbook Pro early 2011, 17" 2.2 Quad core i7, 8G ram, to proving that the 85W is not enough.
-Im running this test on both OSX & win 7
-the battery capacity is 20% when i running this test
-the power adapter "macsafe" is plugin when i run this test
1) macsafe 85w turn to green to stop charging when rendering HD movie in Final Cut pro 7 in OSX ( but then it will turn to orange to charged again after you cancel the render)
2) macsafe 85w turn to green to stop charging when playing high graphic game such "Razor F1 2010" in Win 7 ( but then it will turn to orange to charged again after you quit the game)
3) macsafe 85w turn to green to stop charging when editing AVCHD on Sony vegas Pro 10 in Win 7 (it will turn to orange to charged again after you quit the program)
4) when the baterry reach 100%. then I run all of 3 heavy program above.. the baterry will drain slowly until 93% then it turn to orange to charging again.
(this will happen only when you run heavy program) 85w macsafe itself also not enough to run these program.. still need little battery support..
As i know this will happen to all macbook pro since before Quad core model. You must run heavy program, then you can determin this systoms..
Lastly, I really hope that all of this symtoms are the "macsafe work design", & not the macsafe fault... & really hope this symtoms will not damage the battery because regullaly charge on & off.
Maybe This is why new macbook pro design,, you cannot take out the battery... It still need the battery support also, while plugin..
Thanks &
Sorry broken english..

"Maybe This is why new macbook pro design,, you cannot take out the battery... It still need the battery support also, while plugin.."
Yes — but only when you're working the machine very hard. Most of the time, 85W is ample.
"But,, we need the official announce by apple regarding this issue"
No you don't. That's how it works. What good would an announcement from Apple do you?

This hardware not compatable with Windows XP due to Logo signage

My bother (who resides in another state) just purchased an HP LaserJet Pro P1102w Printer. He tried to connect it to his computer than has XP Pro as the OS, and gets the following error message:
"this hardware not compatable with Windows XP due to Logo signage"
Anyone run across or heard of this problem?

Hi,
This explaination may help. The CD which came with the printer may not cover for this situation. My suggestion: go to this site to download XP driver & application then install them on the XP machine.
Regards,
BH

Hardware requirements to run Hyper-v clients

Can a thin client with a Celeron or atom processor be used as a thin client? I want to set up virtual machines for VDI that can do most basic home computer uses - but this would include streaming video's with good quality.

Hi,
As mentioned in the link posted by Steve, you can check the setting of Data Execution Prevention.
And according to the following blog, some hardware features that Hyper-V does not utilize and enabling them will prevent Hyper-V from loading. (If your BIOS doesn't have this hardware feature, then igonre this part)

Disable in the BIOS)

Processor powerful enough to run Premiere Pro

I would like to purchase an HP Pavillion p6-2014 to run PP. I am unsure, however, if the processor is powerful enough: it uses the AMD A6-Series. Does anyone know if this will work? The tech specs are here http://www.bestbuy.com/site/HP+-+Pavilion+Desktop+/+AMD+A-Series+Processor+/+8GB+Memory+/+ 1TB+Hard+Drive/3641602.p?id=1218422886714&skuId=3641602&st=p6-2014&cp=1&lp=1

Unfortunately, that system still falls below Adobe's minimum requirements for Premiere Pro CS5.x. The A6-3600 CPU is, if anything, slower than some of the Phenom II quad-core CPUs - and all of the Phenom IIs (and Fusions) lack full support for SSE 4.x instructions that CS5.x makes great use of. Even worse, that system has only one single hard drive for absolutely everything (which will make Premiere Pro not run properly, at least to anybody's satisfaction). You will need three or more fast internal hard drives for Premiere Pro to function satisfactorily. And that system does not have a discrete GPU at all, let alone an Nvidia GPU, so CS5.x will only run in MPE software-only mode. And its included 8GB of RAM is barely enough to run CS5.x adequately.
In other words, that system is cheap - and performs exactly that way. You get what you pay for, in this particular case. A $400 system - desktop or laptop - is just not powerful enough for video editing unless all you're working with is standard-definition DV from tape (and that requires the purchase of a Firewire 400 card in addition to the system, in this particular case).

Is Thunderbolt fast enough to run all LR5 data from a 7200 rpm external HHD??

Hi,
I was wondering if Thunderbolt was fast enough to run all LR5 data ( LRCAT, Previews and RAW files ) from a 7200 rpm external HHD or do I need to go with a Thunderbolt 2 setup?? RAW files no greater than 80mb.

AuggyDoggy wrote:
I am concerned with speed round-tripping between PS and LR and creating prviews and saving files. I will be using a 4 core nMacPro 3.7Ghz and while it is capable of using TB2 which is twice as fast it is almost twice as expnesive. I am purchaing a CalDigit T3 external TB RAID box.
These items in Lightroom (creating previews, rending photos to export or send to photoshop) are largely dependent on CPU speed, the disk speed is such a small portion of the total time involved that its probably irrelevant and you'd never notice the difference between fast drives and slow drives. I can't speak about Photoshop, but you know what, none of this addresses the issue of what is "fast" to you and what is not fast to you, and in fact I doubt such a thing can adequately covered in a forum anyway.
