Migration (BOXI3.1 - BI4.1) using UMT via Linux command lines

I have BO4.1 hosted on linux. I am currently doing migration from BOXI3.1 to BI4.1 and need to use linux scripts to call upgrade mgmt tool.
This is possible only for complete migration.
However I wanted to know:
If it is possible to do incremental migration as well using command lines.
What is the impact on Security Model in case of Complete Migration using command lines. Is it recommended?
Is it possible to do incremental migration with command lines keeping BIAR file as source?

Hi,
Dennis is right. You can install the UMT only on Windows. With this variant you can also use an increment Upgrade even if your Destination BI 4.1 System is on LINUX.
Doing a Full Stack installation will do the trick. You can also go ahead and install the UMT only but you need additional components (as desribed from Denis). For more info check:

And as always, when i read Upgrade Threads, i recommend you follow the Best Pactices for the UMT...makes live easier:

Using DHCP via the command line

Hi,
I'm using a PowerMac G4 with OSX 10.4 as a home server machine. This weekend, my ISP did some kind of network change and now this computer isn't able to connect to the internet. I use DHCP to connect, and on two other Macs I was able to go to network settings, turn off DHCP and turn it back on - and they can connect just fine now.
However, I have no display connected to the PowerMac and thus I can only connect to it locally over SSH and VNC. This means that if I were to turn off DHCP, my connection to the machine would die and I wouldn't be able to do anything.
So now I'm looking for a way to make a script that will turn off DHCP and re-enable it. The problem is that I have no idea what the GUI preferences actually do. Are there command-line commands I can use for this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Cosmo

You could use the ifconfig command to bring the network interface down and back up again.
sudo ifconfig en0 down
sudo ifconfig en0 up
however this will of course break your connection if remotely administrating the mac.
So you would be best writing a script that would carry out both commands.

Compare two pdf files using adobe acrobat through command line

Does anyone know how to compare two pdf files using adobe acrobat through command line. I want to do this via command line because we want to compare hundreds of file every day through some automated windows tasks.
If command line option is not available in acrobat, then is it feasible to make use of acrobat javascript API to do this task?
Any kind of help will be greatly.

Command-line: Not possible.
JavaScript: Possible, but very limited. Basically the only thing you can do is simulate clicking the Compare Documents button. The rest has to be done manually.
However, it *might* be possible to automate this process a bit more using a plugin. Ask over at the Acrobat SDK forum for more information...

Setting proxy servers via the command line

I am looking to find out how to set up the system to use http and https proxies via the command line instead of through system preferences. How do I do this. I have basic command line knowledge.

This information is stored in a plist file and is easiest to manipulate with PlistBuddy. For example, to set the HTTP proxy name, use:
/usr/libexec/PlistBuddy -c "Set NetworkServices:6CFBA910-E4A0-4418-82E5-66A6480EBC71:Proxies:HTTPProxy http://my.proxy.com" /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist
Note: 6CFBA910-E4A0-4418-82E5-66A6480EBC71 is a UUID and likely to be unique on each machine. I don't have another Mac handy to check this. If so, you'll need to do some heavy to find out which one is the interface you need to address.
Try man PlistBuddy and/or a web search for more information on how this tool can be used.
Try man PlistBuddy or a web searc for more info on using it.

Can I manage resource designates via the command line?

I would like to manage resource designates via the command line and
the "unires" command does not seem to have this function. Could I use
"uniadmrights"?
# uniadmrights -e -add -resrc -n 10000
 
-e modify user rights, search filter
 
-add set user right on (-e only, default)
 
-resrc resource administration

The uniadmrights command is not able to assign designate rights. You can assign
rights such as the ability to create and manage public and administration
groups. The "Resource administration" flag exists so far only on the
server side, and it is currently not used by the client. This is for future use.

There are two ways to assign a designate to a resource:
<ol>
<LI>Log on as the resource via the client. There are only a few commands
available, one of them being the "Access Rights".

<LI>On the server side:

Edit the /users/unison/misc/resource.ini
file and create a new section to specify the resource designate.

[DES]
Designate0 = S=Lastname/G=Firstname

Run the unires command as follows:

% unires -mod "R=resourcename" -s DES 10000
[sysOpPsw]
</OL>

Note: The full resource name should be used eg. "R=Resource/N=1/CA=2/ID=2
57"

This sounds like a job for wget . You'll have to build and run it on Unix or Cygwin.
You could also build a test suite to do this in various testing tools. You could even write a short Perl or Groovy script to do this, or a slightly longer Java class.

Using the Oracle Repository Command Line Tool under Linux

I have to use the command lines of Linux for SCM commands(like repcmd,

should I have to install something?
I have documentation for using the oracle repository command line Toll

How do I open a PDF to a specific page via the command line?

Several questions about opening PDFs from the Mac OS X command line:
1) How do I use the "open" command to open a PDF to a specific page? (I know I can open a document via: open doc_name.pdf)
2) How do I use the "open" command to pass multiple arguments (page no, zoom scale, view mode, etc...) to open a PDF file in a specific manner?
3) Does Preview handle the same parameters as Acrobat Reader? If not, what are the differences in options?
I've spent hours searching for this answer and have come up dry. I've downloaded Adobe's "PDF Open Parameters" document -- it lists all of the parameters I need, however I can't get any of them to work from the command line.
My goal: Open a PDF from the command line to a specific page. At first glance, I thought this would be simple to do and find -- however, after a lot of searching I haven't found an example on how to do it.
Anyone have any experience doing this, and care to share?
Much appreciated! ---> Kelsey

I don't know of any way to do what you want using the 'open' command. It can probably be done with Applescript, which you could call from a shell script. The Preview application doesn't seem to be scriptable. I don't use Acrobat, so I can't tell you anything about that. Looking through the dictionaries of the apps I do have, it seems that Skim (another PDF viewer) has an AS 'page' class. Below are a couple of links that may get you started. Look for more specific guidance in Applescript forums.

Sending Reporting Services report via the command line

I would like to either execute a subscription that sends a report via email on demand. That or just email the report without having to edit the subscription date. Can this be done from the command line? I see there is the rs.exe utility
that allows you to deploy reports and run configuration commands, but I would like to execute and email the report. Is this possible?

The easiest way to run a subscription manually is to run the agent job in SQL server that is associated to the subscription. You'll need to know the subscription ID to do that. So, you could either run it through SSMS, or if it needs to be in
command line, interact with SQL Server via command line and do so.
You can use the ReportService2010 API methods and and powershell script to identify the subscription ID

How to initialize consumer from supplier via the command line ?

We have a small directory that gets loaded from scratch every night.
We also setted up replication to a couple of consumers (read only).
The problem is that since the data is loaded everynight, we get compliants in logs "Replica has a different generation ID than local database"
I can initialize the consumers via the gui. But how to do it from the command line from the master ? I know that an option is to do a db2ldif and then an ldif2db on the consumer but it's not an option for us.
I also tried setting the nsds5beginreplicarefresh to start, but that doesn't seem to do a full init.
There must be a way, as the gui actually does it.
TIA

Basically it's very simple. Supposing your replication is already setup and you reload data to your master. If you want the initialization pushed to all the replicas automatically, you can simply setup a flag in all the agreements. This flag is called nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh.
Please check the link:
http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6699-10/confattr.html#18194
nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh
Allows you to initialize a replica. This attribute is absent by default. However, if you add this attribute with a value of start, the server reinitializes the replica and removes the attribute value.
Property
Value
Entry DN
cn=ReplicationAgreementName,cn=replica,cn="suffixName",
cn=mapping tree,cn=config
Valid Range
stop | start
Default Value
N/A
Syntax
DirectoryString
Example
nsDS5BeginReplicaRefresh: start
Please note that this value is absent by default and will disappear whenever initialization to replica finished. Next time whenever you want it to happen again, use ldapmodify to set this flag up.
Also, if you want this happen to all the master's replicas, you have to setup for all the agreements.
I already tested and it turns out very magic.
So what you should do is whenver your master get reloaded, when it gets finished, call ldapmodify to set the attribute to be "start".
Hope it helps!

Invoking Powershell modules on remote clients via package/command line

Hello Everyone -
I have two modules(functions) that i've written and tested successfully locally in my environment that give me Uninstall and Repair functionality on whatever the string contains. Both .psm1's are delivered via a SCCM pkg that lands both into folders
in the Modules directory. My issue is I can't seem to invoke this in a deployment scenario...as i'd like to deliver the "Invoke-command" using SCCM's command line to simply say...
Invoke-Command -scriptblock { Do-This "<string>" }
The above command works fine locally when...(exePol is set to Bypass).
1.)Modules have respective folders living in WindowsPowershell\Modules directory named xxxx.psm1
2.)Import-Module -name <path\name of module>
3.)Verify Modules are loaded(moduleType is script)
But when fabricating the folders\files above with SCCM, and running the Invoke-Command(in many different ways remotely), i recieve the cmdlet, program doesn't exist and has no idea what i'm talking about. Folders\Files for .psm1's are present and do
show when running Get-Module -Listavailable locally on targeted clients.
Maybe this is related to the Import-Module command and the context i'm trying to delivery it in?
I've tried multiple scenario's of...
A.) Psexec that launches powershell, followed by the Import-Module -name <path\name of module>
B.) .Bat file that launches powershell with the same Import-Module syntax
C.) PS1 that includes the same Import-Module line.
D.) Just straight from the command line of the Pkg/Program.
Has anyone tried this? Is there a better method when trying to deliver invoke-command on a module/function to a client via SCCM?
TIA

[I see that the you are running the powershell.exe and then importing the module in the command line for the Program you created in SCCM, so just importing the module will do the repair action for you ??]
Not sure how else i would run a Import-Module without calling upon powershell.exe. The reason for using Import-Module first is it only creates the abilty of whatever the module(function in this case) on the client. So if i can get the remote
Import-Module to work, which would then allow me in the future to use an Invoke-Command -scriptblock { Do-This "string" } on the clients. In this case its both an Uninstall and Repair function with an assortment of switches and arguements that will aide me
in the future in managing our apps. For me to use the Modules, i would need to Invoke-Command as that is how the functions are built.
Okey so the module does get dumped to the end machine.
Suppose you have a test machine TEST01 where the Test.psm1 file (having Test-Function)is delivered through SCCM.
Then try this and tell if it works:
PS C:\> $session = New-PSSession -ComputerName TEST01
PS C:\> Invoke-Command -Session $session -ScriptBlock {Import-Module Test.psm1 }
PS C:\> Invoke-Command -Session $session -ScriptBlock {Test-Function #inside your Module}#Or Simply try below:
PS C:\> Invoke-Command -ComputerName TEST01 -ScriptBlock {Import-Modules Test.psm1;Test-Function #inside your Module}
I think what you are doing is below.....for the example am taking "webadministration" module:
PS C:\> Invoke-Command -ComputerName Server01 -ScriptBlock {Import-Module web*}
PS C:\> Invoke-Command -ComputerName Server01 -ScriptBlock {get-website}
The term 'get-website' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check
the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (get-website:String) [], CommandNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException
+ PSComputerName : sdwuweb017
Point here is you need to import the module and work with it in an already opened session....If you specify a computername every time then PowerShell opens the Session does what you want it to do and tears down the session. To persist the importing of the
module it must be done in a session which we make using New-PSSession and then run the commands against that session.
I might have misunderstood the problem but this is what I have got so far.
Hope this helps

Bill,
Thank you for the quick answer. I believe you are right in your assumption.
I have been searching but found nothing so far.
I need to be able to run this line "wmic
Product where name='XXX XXX XXX' call uninstall"
in an elevated command prompt to uninstall the program.
I was looking for a VB script or PowerShell to execute it remotely on non domain roaming PCs.
Th3e command can be run remotely against stand-alone workstations but you must supply credentials. Post in the platform forum for you version of Windows for help in using the WMIC utility. WMIC /? will give you all of the command options fro
remote execution. UAC only affects local systems. You cannot use WMIC to remote back to the local system. WMIC does not allow impersonation to the local system.
Most installers will not automatically allow an unattended uninstall. If there is any dialog at all the uninstall will fail and can hang.
I recommend contacting the vendor of the application to get more information.
In all cases you cannot bypass UAC as Bill has noted. I am only noting that, sometimes, in a workgroup, you can use WMIC to remotely uninstall an application.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
