Managed Clients Printers and wrong Printernames

Hi,
we have managed clients and assign printers through the WGM.
If for example the client uses the "ad dept"printer the printername in the dock, while it is printing says "finance dept" but prints to the correct printer.
I have spoken with other admins, that also use WGM and managed clients/printers ad they have the same situation.
Again: The detination is right but the name of the printer in the Dock is wrong.
I looked in the detailview in WGM and found nothing irregular.
Is there a way to handle this?
regards
Oliver

We had a wierd problem with HP printers giving the wrong names... we had to change the printers mDNS name. Dunno if this helps

But i want to make a advance feature as Server side manage client section and can send back message to client when Server change status...
I know RMI and Corba can seems to support to send back messages to sections of cliens right ?

How to deploy configuration manager client package to a query based collection

Hi
I have created one OU based collection.Now i wants to deploy client package to this collection so that the client automatically get installed,whenever a new machine added to the OU and so on to the collection.
But the issue is with configuration manager client package deployment,as we can't deploy the default configuration package to the collection(Deploy option is grayed out). For this i created a new configuration manager client package and deployed this package
to the query based collection.
Now when a new machine added to this collection,the client did not appear to deploy on this machine. Please help

If you want all the devices in the OU to get the client, you can use a Computer Startup Script to deploy it. Everybody just uses Jason's since it does everything and is well documented.

I hope that helps,

Build and Capture TS fails in "Prepare Configuration Manager Client" task

I have a ConfigMgr 2012 R2 + CU1 I use for Windows 7 deployment.
I have made a "build and Capture" TS in ConfigMgr that I use to build my reference image.
When I run the TS it fails at the "Prepare Configuration Manager Client" step where I get the following error:
The task sequence execution engine failed executing the action (Prepare Configuration Manager Client) in the group (Capture the Reference Machine) with the error code 2147749938

If I disable the "Install Software Updates" part of my TS it will run without probems. It installs 154 updates during the build.
I have seen another reference to this problem on this forum but why should the large number of the updates be the reason why the task sequcens cannot prepare the SCCM client for capture.
Sounds to me that it's a BUG :-(

I'm glad I'm not the only one running into this. I've been racking my brain for the past few days trying to figure out where I went wrong.

Managed printers and PPDs

I set up some managed printers and was wondering if the server should be pushing the PPD to the clients or not.
What I did was install the drivers on the server, made the printer and added it to my managed users group. The printers show up for the users but the PPD is set to generic. I was assuming the PPD would get pushed to the clients, like Windows does.
Do I have to install the drivers on my clients as well?

Yes you will need to push out the PPD files yourself. If you have Apple Remote Desktop it helps

IPrint Migration - Printers and Clients Not on Welcome Page

We just finished a test migration of one of our iPrint servers from Netware 6.5SP8 to OES 11SP1. Everything went well, the driver store and manager are up and working, all the printers migrated, and all the drivers seem to be there. The one annoying issue is that the client download links and the install printers links did not get added to the Client Software tab on the default OES home page. I restarted all the services, but they still do not show up. If I type in the client download link manually, I can download it. I can also access the printers page directly at server/ipp. What do I need to do to get those links to appear?
Thanks,
Jason

Being in the welcome page, client software tab, if you check the source
of the html page or the javascript on the page, you should see a
http://servername/welcome/links/iprint.js.
If not, the migration did not copied the file. If it is, check it is the
one from oes11 and not from netware. Installing latest oes11sp1 iprint
modules should restore the good iprint.js.

WARNING: Canon Pro Printers and CS4 – Serious Colour Management Issue

Over the last four days (and over fifty prints) I have undertaken extensive and meticulous tests to identify the cause of a problem; namely that targets for profiling a new printer (a Canon Pro9000), printed with ‘no colour management’, were printing far too dark and with what appeared to be a colour cast.
I have conclusively eliminated the printer, the printer drivers, the Mac OS, corrupted preference files, corrupted user accounts, incorrect Photoshop settings, incorrect printer driver settings, the ‘sticky settings' issue, and user error as possible causes of the problem.
I can say with 95% certainty that my tests, conducted using Mac OSX 10.4.11, have proved the following:
That, printing to a Canon Pro9000 or iP4500, Photoshop CS4 does not print accurate targets suitable for producing profiles. This applies to both the No Colour Management (NCM) and the Printer Manages Colour (PMC) settings.
Photoshop CS and CS2 are not effected.
I did not test CS3.
Furthermore, colour managed prints (using the same accurate profile made in CS2), printed in CS2 and CS4, show subtle differences. This may not be an issue except in the most critical applications.
It is likely that the problem will not be confined to the two Canon printers above since many other Canon printers share the same driver architecture.
Reading posts and discussions on other websites would seem to indicate that this problem is also manifest with some Epson printers and may also effect Mac OSX 10.5.
I have to conclude, therefore, that Photoshop CS4 cannot be replied upon to print targets of sufficient accuracy to produce reliable profiles for a colour managed workflow.
The fact that this is only just being reported can be attributed to four factors:
That many CS4 users are continuing to use profiles made under older versions of Photoshop and have yet to make new profiles using CS4.
Some users may not immediately notice a problem, or may ascribe it to other causes.
Some users may take the line of least resistance and use a previous version of Photoshop to work around the problem.
Some users are still using the older versions of Photoshop not effected.
Eric Chan (of Adobe) has stated on another website that CS4 implemented some new APIs for printing and that this has given rise to some "minor glitches". If Eric Chan is correct, and Adobe changed the APIs in Photoshop CS4, this begs question of whether Adobe sufficiently tested CS4 before release ? If Adobe did not test their software, and therefore failed to identify this critical problem, this would suggest negligence on Adobe’s part. If Adobe identified the problem but then did not inform users that a potentially serious colour management issue existed this would suggest wilful or gross negligence.
It is not good enough to say that Adobe simply followed the ‘conventional’ path and ‘followed the rules’ regarding API implementation. The experience of end users does not correspond to a “minor glitch” and, in my case, has been extremely costly in terms of time (over five days in all), lost revenues, and materials. Furthermore, why should Adobe's customers be forced to use their valuable time diagnosing problems clearly of Adobe's creation – and actually admitted.
In UK law providers of goods and services (and this includes software) have to supply them as “fit for purpose”. Clearly, in terms of colour management, CS4 is not fit for purpose. Neither can Adobe hide behind its labyrinthine licensing terms since any exclusions would be ruled unlawful under the UK’s ‘Unfair Contract Terms’ Act.
My strong and unequivocal recommendation is that representatives from Adobe, Apple, and the printer manufacturers meet together – with the utmost urgency – and provide a rapid and complete solution. It is simply not good enough to pass this ‘over the wall’ saying “it’s not our problem”. It is. Adobe's, Apple's, and the printer manufacturers'. Please solve it. And quickly.
Identify the problem clearly, make it and the solution/s public; and publicise it widely and thoroughly.

Dear DYP.
Thank you for your concern.
"What fixes have you tried?"
If I may quote from my post above:
"I have conclusively eliminated the printer, the printer drivers, the Mac OS, corrupted preference files, corrupted user accounts, incorrect Photoshop settings, incorrect printer driver settings, the ‘sticky settings' issue, and user error as possible causes of the problem.
I can say with 95% certainty that my tests, conducted using Mac OSX 10.4.11, have proved the following:

Photoshop CS and CS2 are not effected.
I did not test CS3"
These tests took place over three weeks and involved over five days of work and the replacement of the printer on Canon's recommendation (although the printer is clearly not at fault).
Please note that I am using Mac OSX 10.4.11.
"What driver versions are you using?"
Pixma iP4500 6.9.3 (also 6.9.1, 6.9.2 and the driver supplied on the CD).
Pro 9000 4.8.7 (also 4.7.3, 4.8.4 and the driver supplied on the CD).
"Yes it is frustrating but in a lot of cases it is fixable as I and others have clear reported, on this and the LR forums."
I have not found any fix on any website referring to Canon printers, despite exhaustive searches (this includes Canon's European and US websites which are mute on the issue).
The ReadMe file supplied with the installation disc of CS4 refers to problems with "some Canon printers" when printing with the 'Printer Manages Color' but does not identify using 'No Color Management' nor Epson printers as having issues.
I hope this post answers your questions.
Clearly all users of CS4 need to be warned of this problem which is likely to effect other printers. I believe that I am assisting others by issuing this warning. It is done, not to cause mischief, but in the spirit of a public service. CS4 users can then treat their printing results from CS4 with caution, and then conduct their own tests. I have presented a workaround which is to use a prior version of CS4.

Use two streams to manager client video/audio,Can i combine streams and record it with server AS API
I tried Stream.play()
var s=Stream.get("combine");
s.play("video");
s.play("audio",null,null,false);
s.record("append");
it's don't work!!

Thanks, that's what I had thought. Our domain.com zone is sourced internally and replicated to our advertisers for external users, so there's no way to change the result for internal vs external users.
This is a rudimentary question that I should already know but I sort of inherited this after it was built: Can I have users sign in with their email address ([email protected]) but under the hood, their SIP address is [email protected]? This would let users
sign in with an address they expect, but it would take advantage of the the local lyncdiscoverinternal record.
Thanks,

Please clarify license about server managed and configuration manager client ML system center 2012

Could clarify why managed servers License required ,already we bought the configuration manager client ML License ? We are planing to buy system center operation manager 2012

Hello,
if you wants planing to Monitoring your AD with Exchange Server and you have only one physical Server with for example 2 CPUs and 2 VMs, you need to purchase the System Center Standard 2012 R2 SML for Monitoring your Server environement. However, if
your AD is a datacenter or for example 4 x Windows Server Standard with 8 VMs than, you need to purchase the System Center datacenter SML.
the System Center SML is licensed per physical Server: one license up to two physical CPUs. if you have for 2 physical Hosts with 2 CPUs each, you need to purchase two System Center licenses.
the only difference between Standard and datacenter is only about virtualization rights
for System Center Operation Manager for your Clients Desktop, you need to purchase the System Center Client Management Suite includes: Operation Manager; Services Manager; Data Protection Manager and Orchestrator.
thanks

OSD with Configuration Manager Clients and PKI certifications

My team and I had just set up PKI Certs on our System Center 2012 R2 Server. We want the opportunity to utilize Out Of Band Management, but we also would like to make our OSD available to the following "Only Configuration Manager Clients." I have
done some testing and have found that without PKI enabled we have been able to use this feature. Once we enabled PKI we could only perform OSD through PXE or Boot Media.
Is there a way to have PKI enabled but also allow OSD's to be available through "Only Configuration Manager Clients"?

Thanks for the reply, I will relay the info concerning OOB. It is not necessarily a technical problem we are running into, more of an inconvenience. OSD works great as long as you make your TS deployment available through Boot media or PXE. Our end goal
is to create a zero touch environment. To do this I was thinking of making the TS available only configuration manager clients. With PKI I loose that capability and it forces me to use boot media or PXE.
Is there a way to have PKI enabled and still be able to deploy TS with only configuration manager clients, and no other deployment method?
Thank you again.

ConfigMgr 2012 R2 and managing clients in untrusted forest

I have read documentations and I'm still not 100% sure what are the possible limitations in my situation. I have 2 AD forests without any trusts between them. I'm planning to deploy ConfigMgr 2012 R2 in forest A. I also have clients in forest B.
I need to install operating systems via PXE, applications and windows updates to clients in untrusted forest. I'm also planning to support internet clients.

You can manage clients in un-trusted forests. This blog is a good place to start.

Identifying and managing clients in nonblocking NIO socket programming

Here's my beef. When I write a Server using a thread for every new connection that comes in, I can remember everything for each client in its respective thread. I can have a table entry in a MYSQL database for each client which each thread can look up by a remembered id. I can direct packets from a different application to a specific client by passing a message to the thread associated with the client. But, in this implementation, the client-server setup will need to have a master-slave relationship where one is always reading, and can talk on the network only in response.
I like the NIO selector way of doing things, but I do not get a memory method to deal with specific clients. How do I, for example,
direct packets to a specific client.?
recognize incoming packet info and make sense of its context in relation to past messages to and from the same client?
maintain one-to-one correspondence between a MYSQL database table entry and a specific client?
Could somebody explain this to me how I can maintain a client environment, and a client state machine with memory?
Thanks
Anil

AnilYou will use select() and SelectionKey when you deal with NIO. The SelectionKey has an attach method that you can use to associate the client with something, e.g. a session. Your Session class can contain all that you now have in your thread.

Managed Clients and printing list

Hi,
we have discovered the following problem.
When a user logs in on a machine that other users have used before, the new user sees all the printers that were assigned to the users before.
They are NOT displayed in the Systemsettings, but ARE displayed in the printing list thats used while printing.
It seems that CUPS only adds printers and does not care if the user should see them or not.
Deleting them in CUPS and relogging does the job, but this is not a clean way to handle this.
Can anyone help?
regards
Oliver

Issue 2: I'm trying to deploy a couple of Packages/Applications using SCCM 2012 R2 running on Win2K8 R2 with no luck, knowing that I could install the packages
on a test VM “in the DataCenter site”, but when trying to deploy the packages to production PC “in the Office Site”,
the status is packages deployment compliance stuck at 0%
Infrastructure:
3 SCCM servers: CAS, PRI & SEC. Both CAS and PRI are in the DataCenter site, and SEC is in the Office site. The office site has several IP subnets.
Boundaries are configured through Forest Discovery “IP Ranges and AD Sites” since that the AD site should contain all the IP subnets that the AD site contains, Boundaries groups are also configured and a site reference
server is configured for each group respectively.
A OU based Collection has been configured that contains 13 PC "the collection contains the PCs that the packages should be installed.
Packages/Applications are configured correctly since that I could successfully deploy the packages to the test VM which is on the same subnet as the CAS and the PRI servers "the DataCenter subnet". The issue
is that I can't deploy the packages to production PCs in the Office subnet!
Firewall rules are configured and applied via GP, and I even turned Windows Firewall off, and still nothing! I tried to manually initiate Computer Policy download via the SCCM GUI and via a script, still no luck!
I tried configuring IP Subnet Boundaries, still no luck!!
Here are the last 2 lines in the LocationServices.log of a client PC at the Office Site:

It looks like clients in the Office Site can’t connect to the DP/MP of the Secondary Site server which is also a DP.
While on the PC that the application was installed on I see the folowing in the LocationService.log:
<![LOG[Distribution Point='http://BBK-SCCM-PRI.bbk2310.com/SMS_DP_SMSPKG$/Content_69547d2a-339f-4ac4-9523-238c79ff8a52.1', Locality='LOCAL', DPType='SERVER', Version='7958', Capabilities='<Capabilities SchemaVersion="1.0"><Property

Is there something wrong with the Distribution point on the Secondary Site server?
Please help…
Thanks..

Update:
I fixed the issue with the default XXX00002 package - "Configuration Manager Client Package", it will not deploy to the Secondary Site DP. I did that through "Update Distribution Points" option, and after a while the status was 100%.
However; the second issue is still unsolved...
Please help..

Questions on Client Failver and Fast Failover

've few questions regarding Client Failover and Fast Faiolver of Oracle Database HA. Before I ask those questions I would like to explain my environment. Below are the details.
- We have two physical locations called 'ABC' and 'PQR'
- ABC is the primary site.
- PQR is the standby site.
- In ABC, we have Oracle RAC database (11.2.0.2) with two nodes.
- In PQR, we have a single server standalone database (11.2.0.2) with ASM. This is not a RAC.
- Data Guard has been configured between ABC and PQR and it is working as expected.
- Please note that we have a licence for Active Data Guard.
- We have Oracle Identity Management products at both ABC and PQR and they are going to use RAC database as a primary database which is in ABC.
- We did not configure Data Guard broker yet.
We want to achieve below goals:
Goal 1:
Whenever RAC primary goes down completely, standby database should become primary database AUTOMATICALLY and it should allow read/write operation.
I guess this is called 'Fast Failover'. Please let me know if I am wrong.
Questions :
- To make this happen, Do I need to configure Data Guard Broker so that standy database becomes primary when RAC goes down completely with planned or unplanned outage.
- Let's say RAC goes down completely, how long does Data Guard broker take to make standby db as Primary.
- What about the client/application who already connected to RAC.
- Let's standby DB has become as primary and after sometime if RAC comes back , Does data guard automatically changes the role of RAC to primary ?
Goal 2:
As I explained above, all Oracle IDM products and applications speak to RAC database they only know about RAC database which is primary.They are not aware of standby database.
- Whenever a client session is in progress with RAC primary database, if RAC goes down completely , we would like to expect client session should get transferred standby datbase without loosing session information . However before this happens, standby database should become primary becuase client session may perform write operations.
- Whenever a client is trying to connect to RAC prmary and assume RAC is completely down, we would like to expect client connections should get transferred to standby database.
However before this happens, standby database should become primary becuase client session may perform write operations.
As per my knowledge, above scenarios are called 'client failver'. Please let me know if I am wrong.
Questions:
1. Please throw some light to achieve above features.
2. As per my understanding, before client failover happens, fast failover should have already occured and standby should get switch to primary role. I guess all this happens through TIMEOUT parameters. What are those.
Could you please help ?
Thanks
