Launchpad won't logon automatically after the "Skip Domain Joining" workaround.

Hi all!
I've setup a Windows Server 2012 Essentials with 2 Windows 8 PCs using the skip domain joining workaround available here;
***/thread/aa40963c-7235-40f7-85f5-8f8d030a7c13 (sorry, can't post full url, but it's on this forum)
My problem is, at each client reboot, even if the option to save my credentials is selected, I need to re-enter the password for the Launchpad to connect to the server.
Any ideas how to solve this?
Best regards,
Tommy

That's still 20% (a potentially large number of users) and it is stopping me, and I am sure, others from moving from WHS2011.... even with the benefits of WSE2012.
I was hoping to see this remedied in WSE2012R2 but it looks like this is still not supported.
I cannot see why, for non-domain joined machines you cannot at least allow an ability to save the password (even if it needs a registry change to enable this feature) so that the 20% can use it this way and move onto WSE2012R2.
There are plenty of other areas where passwords are stored in the users profile for other areas of access, so not sure why this is any different in this scenario.
This is especially annoying for those WHS users given the fact that WSE2012 was supposed to provide a real migration path for WHS2011 users - so please make some allowance for this group of users to provide them (many of whom where strong evangelists for
Microsoft) with a way forward.

  • How to join a client PC to WS2012E R2 that's already a member of another enterprise domain using the skip domain join registry entry?

    In WSE12 R1 you can install the connector application on a Windows 7 PC that has already been joined to a corporate domain using the skip domain registry key:
    reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows Server\ClientDeployment" /v SkipDomainJoin /t REG_DWORD /d 1
    Upon doing so, the client PC is then able to perform client backups to the WSE12 R1 server but remains a member of the original corporate domain.  This is no longer possible when using this registry key when installing the Windows Server 2012 Essentials
    R2 connector
    Is anyone aware of a way to install the WSE12 R2 connector and skip domain join without first leaving the corporate domain? 
    I am avoiding moving to WSE12 R2 until I can figure out a way to accomplish this.

    I noticed this was incorrectly marked as an ANSWER. Although it wasn't a resolution, I recognize the connector install behavior is different in R1 vs R2. If it would be possible to ask the developers to include the following functionality in a future
    Essentials R2 Update, we'd appreciate it. During client connector install, give user the option via radio button: 1.) install connector join domain, enable client PC backup 2.) install connector, join domain only, no client PC backup 3.) install connector,
    do not join domain, enable client PC backup Option #3 would satisfy this request and negate the need for unauthorized registry hacks. Thank you.
    Great discussion here, and glad things seem to have changed for the better with R2.
    Spot on with those suggestions, miles267!
    Back in Dec 2013, I wrote about my fairly simple registry tweak done at just the right spot during the client connector install, still seems to work like a charm

    Sincerely hoping such feedback helps encourage Microsoft to take a simple radio box checkmark request seriously. Really, it'd really help folks a lot, so they wouldn't have to feel they are trusting a "hack" which is really a simple, documented
    registry tweak, done at just the right time.

  • Alert "Power sub-system degraded or failed" won't close automatically after power restores

    we have SCOM R2 and HP server in use.
    we installed HP server MP.
    each server has two power suppliers, one to UPS,  one to Commercial power.
    but there is always Commercial power outage, after which alert "Power sub-system degraded or failed" will arise.
    when power restores, this alert won't close automatically.
    Below please find alert properties,
    there is no "Aoto-resolve" attribute, I suppose this is the reason why this alert won't close automatically after power restores.
    but I want this alert to be closed automatically by SCOM after power restores, could anyone help me?

    It looks like this particular alert is generated by a rule, and that rule simply generates an alert whenever certain events are detected in the event log.  A rule that alerts on the creation of an event does not have the ability to close based on the
    detection of a second event.
    If this is the behavior you are looking for you would be best to create your own monitor as opposed to this rule, as you can create a custom monitor that alerts on one event or events and closes when another event or events are logged indicating things are
    healthy again.
    Once you have your custom monitor setup, you would then want to disable this rule that was built into the hp management pack.  You can also look to see if the hp mp has any contact info that you can reach out to and ask for this feature to be included
    in the next update of the mp, but for now i think your best option is to create a custom monitor that alerts on one event and closes on another.

  • Append hyphen automatically after the wrapping of text in the dimension field

    Post Author: Nita_here
    CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
    I want to Append hyphen automatically after the wrapping of text in the dimension field.
    e.g the text reads "I want to wrap this text". then if cell width exceeds after "I want to wrap" then it should be displayed like this "I want to wrap-" "this text".
    Thanks in advance,
    Nita

    Thanks for your input.
    Let me tell you what I have understood. I will create a variable having the formula (which i have earlier written) in universe. Whenever i need to use the formula in infoview, I will call the variable instead. That's fine. But again, I will have the same problem. If I do any change in infoview level, the cell width is bound to change as it is not the free standing cell, its a column among othe one. e.g.
    A  B  C
    1  2  3
    4  5  6
    (you can think B as the column). Any change(addition, deletion of columns) will certainly change the cell width of B. So, again I need to calculate the things, which i dont want.
    Nita_here: I manually calculated that after 12 characters, the cell wraps the text.
    I wonder if there would be a way to do the things dynamically.
    Thanks in advance,
    Nita

  • Web pages won't adjust automatically to the width of my browser.

    MS IE will automatically adjust the web page to the size of the browser. But Firefox doesn't do this, so I have to scroll left and right. Can this be fixed?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened

    As mentioned above, make sure that your "Browser Fill" is what you are applying the gradient to:
    Also, if you do not want your "body" to be white, you can set the fill on that to be transparent:

  • Mac won't start automatically after Mountain Lion update

    Today I found the latest Mountain Lion update in the App Store and I started the installation. It seemed to be working fine so I left the room for a while to do something else while it was installing. However, when I got back, Mountain Lion hadn't started by itself, and I was left with nothing but the "grey background" (if you know what I mean) that shows up during the installation.
    Nothing happened so after a while I had not choice but to reboot the Mac myself by holding in the on/off button at the back. I'm not an experienced Mac user so I'm a bit worried. Does this happen often and does it mean something could be wrong with my iMac?
    After the reboot I entered the App Store again to see if the update was still there, but it wasn't, so I guess the installation itself went well. I just got a bit worried that something's wrong with my iMac. I just bought it.
    Thanks for your help!

    Ah ok, I'm relieved to hear that. So others have had the same issue with this update too? Thanks!

  • Process Chain triggers Automatically after the Transport

    Hello There,
    I have a Process chain setup to load Transaction Data and the infopackets are set to "Immediate Start"..
    When I transport these to Test environment, they are getting executed immediately after the transport..
    Just wondering ,, this is what it intended to do.. because I don't want to run them after the transport.. is it something I am missing anything here ??
    Your comments are much appreciated..
    Thanks
    Mavi

    Mavi,
    Once you click delete and save. The schedule is deleted. You could view via Maintain Start Variant -> Direct Scheduling button.
    You will noticed that there is nothing schedule i.e. all tabs (immediate, specific datetime, etc) are not scheduled.
    Answering to your question on modifiable in Test and Production box :
    All you have to do is go to RSA1 -> Transport Connection -> Object Changeability -> Change the Process Chain objects to Changeable -> Save.
    And you are done i.e. you could change the scheduling of the RSPC in Test and Production.
    Remember to assign the point to the solution provided...:-)
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Lye

    I updated my imac to 10.8.4 and restarted it and now it spins on. The start up but wno't completely restart.

    Give this a try:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    After this is completed download and install 10.8.4 Mountain Lion Update v10.8.4 (Combo).

  • DB-instance not set to status "online" automatically after the start of DB-service

    Hi,
    I have installed an Oracle server (P4 1,7 GHZ / Win2000 Prof./ Oracle
    version EE 8.1.7). I have created a database but now I have some problems.
    After rebooting the server, the created DB-instance does not start
    autmatically although the service (OracleService [databasename]) is being
    started properly. So I have to launch the instance-manager and launch the
    instance manually. What is even more a problem is that the instance can only
    be started by the Windows user who created the database. If another user is
    logged on the Windows system, the instance cannot be started at all. When
    trying to start the instance, the task is being stopped right at the first
    of the three steps (launch, mount, ...). An exclamation mark appears, but no
    error message at all. I did not find any error log.
    For further tests, I have logged in with another Windows user and created
    another database . The result was the same. The instance was not set to
    "online" automatically and only the Windows user who created the DB was able
    to set the instance online.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Best regards,

    Hello,
    Please note that SQL Server requires at least 1 GB of RAM. The operating system (Windows Server) requires 2 GB of RAM (recommended) or 512 MB (minimum). This means any virtual machine that will receive the installation of a SQL Server instance requires 1.5
    or 2 GB at least.
    The behavior of SQL Server setup tells me that the virtual machine does not have enough memory assigned or .NET Framework 3.5 was not enable on Control Panel->Program
    and Features before trying to install SQL Server.
    The following thread is about another possible cause of this error:

  • My iPod touch 5th generation won't turn on after the new iOS update

    I've just updated my iPod touch 5th generation to the iOS 8.1.1. (or whatever the newest update is) but once it updated, it now won't turn back on. I've tried plugging it into multiple chargers and computers just in case it wasn't charged, and tired turning it on, but all I get is the apple logo and nothing's happening. What can I do? I haven't backed it up this month and I don't want to loose all my stuff. Thanks.

    Try the following. It is very likely that the iPod will have to be erased:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable              
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
