Managing Windows Server licences (please suggest some tool)

Hi
Does any body know any good tool for discovering Windows Server keys, and managing licences on different Windows Server versions? I Tried VAMT, but i would preffer something with keys database, that could tell me "You have this many keys left for this
versions of windows server" after including the keys from VLSC.
Any ideas about a tool to manage licences?

Hi,
The Microsoft Software Inventory Analyzer will scan a network and give you a report of which Microsoft products are currently installed on each computer. Maybe you can use it to figure out how many licenses you will need to purchase or how many extra
licenses you have:

  • I have a situation please suggest some transactional solution.

    hi,
        I have two databases one is entry database (DB1) Where entery is done, other database is reporting database (D2).
    we are trying to transfer data using stored procedure from db1 to db2. the  sp will be scheduled to run after every 20 to 30 sec.
    in db1 we keep three cols in all tables transferedcol, updatedcol, activecol.
    --activecol gets 1 if when record is entered first time and remain same while updation.
    this col gets 2 if deleted( we do not do physical deletion we only mark 2 in activecol and updagtedcol)
    --transferedcol gets 1 if not transfered to db2, if transfered to db2 then we put 0 in it.
    if record gets updated then it gets 1 again so that we can transfer it again.
    --updatedcol gets 0 for new entry of  each record and 1 if updated after transfer of the record to db2 else if any one tries to updated it before transfer then it will be 0 for new record , after the transfer of that record if some one updates the record
    then it gets 1 and remains 1 throught out the life . yes it gets 2 if record is deleted ( deletion is not  physical , it is logical by setting 2 in activecol and updatedcol).
    in db2 we have only required cols for reporting,  but if required we can keep some cols like transfered ,active and updated.
    this db2 has fk and table gets record from joins of many tables of db1 which also has  fks
    that is schema is not same.
    Q1) i want to transfer only the records having transfered col marked as 1 and after transfering i want to make them 0 from the stored procedure which runs after every 20 30 sec.
    please suggest some solution with isolation level.
    note: on db1 i want that entery should not be blocked to much and at the same it want stored procedure to transfer the data from db1 to db2 so that people can see the report at the very time.
    yours sincerley

    Have you considered replication?
    BOL: "SQL Server Replication
    Replication is a set of technologies for copying and distributing data and database objects from one database to another and then synchronizing between databases to maintain consistency. Using replication, you can distribute data to different locations and
    to remote or mobile users over local and wide area networks, dial-up connections, wireless connections, and the Internet.
    Transactional replication is typically used in server-to-server scenarios that require high throughput, including: improving scalability and availability; data warehousing and reporting; integrating data from multiple sites; integrating heterogeneous data;
    and offloading batch processing. Merge replication is primarily designed for mobile applications or distributed server applications that have possible data conflicts. Common scenarios include: exchanging data with mobile users; consumer point of sale (POS)
    applications; and integration of data from multiple sites. Snapshot replication is used to provide the initial data set for transactional and merge replication; it can also be used when complete refreshes of data are appropriate. With these three types of
    replication, SQL Server provides a powerful and flexible system for synchronizing data across your enterprise. Replication to SQLCE 3.5 and SQLCE 4.0 is supported on both Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8.
    As an alternative to replication, you can synchronize databases by using Microsoft Sync Framework. Sync Framework includes components and an intuitive and flexible API that make it easy to synchronize among SQL Server, SQL Server Express, SQL Server Compact,
    and SQL Azure databases. Sync Framework also includes classes that can be adapted to synchronize between a SQL Server database and any other database that is compatible with ADO.NET."

  • How are Windows Server Backup and Command Line Tools used in vCSHB installation?

    How are Windows Server Backup and Command Line Tools used during the installation of vCSHB?  Is it required in all types of deployments (PtoV, VtoV, PtoP)? Is it used to create the files that are put in the file share for the second node to use during vCSHB installation or is it only used during a vCSHB clone operation of a Physical to Physical deployment?  Are these tools not used in some deployments?

    You need Windows Server Backup installed on source and destination, and during the installation of vCSHB the installer will invoke the wbadmin (Windows Server Backup Utility) and will backup configuration and application data (application data is optimal but can decrease the sync time after installation of secondary node). On the secondary node you will need only run the vCSHB installer and everything will be restored.
    Check this blog entry for some more info about some problems in P2P deployment: http://www.vcoportal.de/2013/12/vmware-vcenter-server-heartbeat-restore-on-a-second-node-a-journey/

    I am unable to connect wifi on my phone 4s since last 2 weeks... I am living in shanghai and did not have this issue since 2 weeks... iPad works fine... Please suggest some measures... Tried the on off reset settings etc. but no luck ...
    In fact after updating the software to the latest version I am having more of this... Sometimes the wifi button freezes an I can't even slide it to on / off...
    Thanks

    Noooo! Actually I too had d same prob wit my iPhone 4S. When I connect to my wifi network it won't get connected or it wil be grey scaled! I took it to d istore and since I had warranty they replaced my IPhone. It iPad charger has high volt than ur iPhone charger so when u connect wit it, there is a chance where large amount of current passes thru ur iPhone. So for sure it wil damage ur motherboard and its parts! Many said that iOS 6 or 6.0.1 or 6.1 was d reason for tis wifi prob! But apple never made its mistake wit it's software. If and only if u hav hardware prob u wil hav these sort of wifi prob Bluetooth prob! So best way s to replace ur iPhone!

  • Some Hostname is not seen in DNS Manager ( Windows Server 2008 )

    Hi All,
    DC Server OS - Windows Server 2008 R2 ( Active Directory Integrated DNS Zone ) Client OS - Windows 7
    I am unable to understand, why some hostname are not dynamically registered in DNS Manager. For example -My windows7 which is added to corp.abc.com domain. Don't show in DNS manager.
    I don't want to create this hostname statically on DNS manager.
    I have tried couple of resolution i.e ipconfig /registerdns, restarted DNS Client / DHCP Client server, restarted computer still unable to see hostname name entry in DNS manager. 2 days has passed, still it has not come-up in DNS manager. I have also check
    Advanced TCP/IP settings. Please see print-screen of nslookup & Advanced TCP/IP Settings.
    Kindly suggest, what should i do, to resolve this problem.
    Thanks & Regards,

    I would first recommend checking that Dynamic DNS updates are configured (I would recommend having it set to Secure only).
    I started yesterday a Wiki article describing that: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/21984.how-to-secure-dns-updates-on-microsoft-dns-servers.aspx
    Please also check that your primary DNS suffix using ipconfig /all. It should be matching the computer domain name. If anything is wrong, you can change it by using the following: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/3720415a-6a9a-4bca-aa2a-6df58a1a47d7/change-primary-dns-suffix?forum=winservercore
    If this do not help, you can try to temporary disable your security software installed on your computer, check the network filtering and use Wireshark to see what happens when you run
    ipconfig /registerdns.

  • Please suggest some ideas

    We are going to develop a huge application using 11g/WebServices/JSF/ADF. Oracle JDeveloper is completely new for us. It is kind of Microsoft Visual Studio and really confusing. There isn't much online help.
    Please provide some suggestions regarding web services security, when do we need backing bean, how do we effectively use adfc-config.xml/faces-config.xml, handling inputs, designing the page etc.

    Hello,
    firstly the web service SOA development is not yet available in JDev 11g.
    There is plenty of documentation available on JDev and ADF, the complete developer guide book is here:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/web.1111/b31974/toc.htm
    I would use caution if you are intending to develop a large application and are new to the framework. Ideally you would want to start of with a small to medium size application because it will be very challenging to learn the framework and design your large application at the same time.

  • Manage Windows Server 2008 DNS role

    Hi,

    But when try to manange DNS with a dns MMC snapin i get access denied (you do not have permission to access this dns server)
    The Ip settings seem to be fine

    hi all,
    i'm trying to find in advance all the applications i'll need so that my transition is smooth and uneventful. i've already done a search and i think i have a fairly good idea in some cases of which programs to use, but i'm always interested in hearing what you think. any suggestions would be appreciated.
    essentially, i'm looking for the linux equivalents of:
    7-zip:
    small and simple compression program. what do you use?
    bestpractice (http://www.xs4all.nl/~mp2004/bp/):
    it's a simple application that allows me to split, modulate, etc. music files so i can transcribe or practice songs. is there anything like this for arch?
    foobar2000:
    i know this has been asked many times, but i'm wondering if there are any programs with the following features:
    -mass tagging (so i can remove tags from multiple files at once)
    -fix vbr headers
    -programmable hotkeys
    -foobar-style shuffle (internal randomized list of tracks)
    -small, light, fast (especially when it comes to loading directories)
    -tabbed playlists
    -noise sharpening plugin
    k-meleon:
    just looking for something lean and fast. i think i've settled on midori, but i don't like the accelerators (i'd rather use ctrl + tab and ctrl + shift + tab to change tabs) and there's no accelerators file to edit.
    miranda:
    i think i've settled on pidgin, but i'm planning on using either pidgin-light or pidgin-mini. what's the difference between them? which one is smaller? do i use pacman to install them?
    office 2007:
    openoffice is too large and unwieldy for me. i'm looking for something simple, and i think abiword and gnumeric should be fine. and i suppose i could always load a vm to use office 2007. do you have any better suggestions here?
    file manager:
    thunar-light is probably the best for me, but i'm not sure how to install it. do i use pacman?
    thanks again!

    7-zip
    For general compression, I actually just use tar. (e.g. tar -cjf output.tar.bz2 input/).
    For 7z compression you can use p7zip.
    foobar2000:
    - I don't usually use GUI music players, but you might want to check out some of the MPD Clients on this page (the GTK+ and Qt sections)
    k-meleon:
    - I can't stand K-Meleon, but it's comparable to Kazehakase (which I also can't stand)
    miranda:
    Pidgin.
    i think i've settled on pidgin, but i'm planning on using either pidgin-light or pidgin-mini. what's the difference between them?
    No damn clue what the difference is. We only have vanilla Pidgin AFAIK.
    do i use pacman to install them?
    yes:
    pacman -S pidgin
    file manager:
    I use Thunar, and I like it. I also hear good things about PCManFM, the default file manager of LXDE.
    thunar-light is probably the best for me,
    Again, not a clue what thunar-light is. Just use Thunar.
    but i'm not sure how to install it. do i use pacman?
    You use pacman to install pretty much everything.
    pacman -S thunar
