NCS on OES11 SP1 needs eDir 8.8.7 or later. With a replica?

We have 3 replicas running, one NW 6.5SP8 and two OES2SP3 (eDir 8.8 SP6). These 3 servers are 32bit.
I'm about to test NCS in the lab (we've not used it before) and see on page 50 (4.6.3) of "clus_admin_lx.pdf" that eDir 8.8.7 is required for managing cluster objects.
Is it okay if we keep our existing replicas and not yet add a replica to our OES11SP1 servers?
I interpret that requirement as saying that we need to manage cluster objects using iManager on one of our OES11 SP1 servers which run eDir 8.8.7. No replica required, correct?
Thanks,
Marc

That would be for the specific version of NCS you are using that would
also have a say in which version of OES it runs on that should have that
version of eDir running on it.

Well since your new OES11sp1 servers will be the only ones with the
newer eDir on them (unless you are upgrading eDir on the older boxes) it
would be a good thing to have a replica on at least one of these eDir
8.8.7 boxes in case there happen to be any 8.8.7 specific objects or
attributes in the newer eDir. I don't know of any, but that doesn't mean
the developers haven't come up with some.

Technically yes. But I would still like to have at least one 8.8.7
hosted replica of the partition(s) containing the new boxes.

OES2 SP1 and OES11 SP1

Hi all,
Question:
We have 3 OES2 SP1 32 bit servers, Server A, B and C
Server A is holding the Master Replica, server B a read write and server C a read write.
We added 3 new OES11 SP1 64 bit servers to the tree, server D, E and F and no replica's on the servers
If we do a ndsrepair -T on server A, we can see all servers, A,B,C,D,E and F
If we do a ndsrepair -T on server B, we can see all servers, A,B,C,D,E and F
If we do a ndsrepair -T on server C, we can see all servers, A,B,C,D,E and F
If we do a ndsrepair -T on server D we only see the server itself
If we do a ndsrepair -T on server E, we see server A and itself
If we do a ndsrepair -T on server F we only see the server itself
Should'nt it be the case that all OES11 SP1 servers see each other and the OES2 SP1 servers, even there is no replica and they are OES11 SP1?
regards,
Mark

No, the 'Servers Known to this Database' and 'Timesync' reports do not
necessarily show all servers in the tree unless the servers on which they
run know about all of the servers by holding a replica of them. That does
not really matter, though, as long as eDirectory knows how to look up
other servers. in your case, with six servers in the tree, it is probably
safe to go ahead and add r/w replicas to the other systems which should
allow them to work more-quickly (no need to go on the wire for most
operations) in responding to client requests.
If you are experiencing any symptoms that you think may be related to
this, be sure that SLP is properly configured for your tree since, without
replicas on them, servers and clients may rely on SLP to find various
parts of the tree.
Good luck.

Strange directory behaviour on NSS volume OES11 SP1

Hi All,
A couple of months ago we installed an OES11 SP1 server with an NSS volume (VOL1:) for all our installation files.
In the root of the VOL1: volume, we created a directory named _Install (yes, underscore)
In this directory we created a lot of subdirectories with installation files for several applications, to keep things short, let's say DIR-A, DIR-B, DIR-C DIR-D DIR-E etc.
So if we opened VOL1:, we just saw the _Install direcory in the root of VOL1:, and if we opened the _Install directory, we saw the DIR-A, DIR-B etc.
But today, we opened the VOL1:, saw, the _Install directory, but also the DIR-A, DIR-B, DIR-C etc. in the folowing manner:
_Install (normal)
_Install\DIR-A
_Install\DIR-B
_Install\DIR-C
etc.
If we doubleclick on one of the directories in the root of VOL1:, we actually open the directory below the _Install directory. It's just like we have a kind of symbolic links, or shortcut's to the real directories in our root.
Never seen this before.
Anybody a clue for this?
regards,
Mark

Having seen your other replies, you're opening VOL1: in Windows Explorer?
What do you see if you do a DIR from a Command Prompt window?

OES11-SP1-Updates not listed

New to patching OES11. I upgraded the server from OES11 / SLES11 SP1
to OES 11 SP1 / SLES 11 SP2. I now want to apply all the latest
patches. zypper lr shows OES11-Updates with enabled:no and
refresh:yes. I don't see an OES11-SP1-Updates. I assume there should
be one. How do I add this?

OES11 SP1 and Groupwise 2012 upgrade

Hi I'm am testing Groupwise 2012 with OES11 SP1 but can't seem to get the domain and Post office to start.
OES11 worked pre SP1 but.once I updated the server Groupwise doesn't want to start. Any ideas.
Cheers

Hi thanks for your quick response. That is exactly my problem. When I delete the file GroupWise works. Looks like Novell are looking at fixing the issue.
I will wait for the fix to be released.

OES11 SP1 Preperation - Problems

I am pretty coherent with oes2 SP2, I have many installes under my belt, and have 38 installs/server all connected into a unified tree...I am now doing my testing to go to OES11 SP1...and I am hacing some problems. My install goes fine, and I have OES11 SP1 running like a charm, with all required services. The problem occurs when I go to update it to the newest patches. The documentation says to use this meathod, which a religiously follow:
1. Make sure both OES11sp1 and SUSE11-SP2 are registered properly
2. zypper sl
3. zypper lr (make sure all update pools for oes11sp1 and suse2-sp2 are present)
3. zyper ref -s
4. zypper lu -r SLES11-SP2-Updates -r OES11-SP1-Updates
5. zypper up -t patch -r SLES11-SP2-Updates -r OES11-SP1-Updates
6. Repat Steps 4 and 5 until no patches exist
My problem comes when doing this, sure enough, it always chokes in two weird places:
- Zypper states that the iprint digest is NOT the correct or expected version
- It also chokes on: novell-xtier-base-3.1.10-11.52.1 install package..when it does finish it states that none of the users can be found....
(the xtier users)
which is pretty messed up, I can produce this on with every install...I get the SAME result everytime...
Any ideas...suggestions..This update meathoed is from the OES11sp1 installation guide....of this year (May 3, 2013)

I had the same digest error on a Firefox update about the same time as
your post only I was applying patches using YaST Online update.
A couple of days later, I followed the same procedure you did and all
updates were applied without any errors. I suspect there are some
issues in the back end.
Can you try again and let us know if it is still happening?

I have a 3 year old MacBook Pro with MAC OSX 10.6.8, iPhoto ’09 version 8.1.2 and have downloaded two software programs: one is Aperture 3.2 and the other is Photoshop Elements 9 (which I got from a friend who didn’t need it).
I am totally happy with the way iPhoto organizes my photos and how I can work with iMovie to create slide shows with music from iTunes, etc.
I have been shooting mostly high resolution jpegs and I continue to learn more and more about photography, post processing etc. I realize that the small adjustments I can make in iPhoto are good, and are adequate most of the time. However, a have started to experiment with shooting RAW images and would like to go the next step, ie. post processing.I am totally technically challenged and need SIMPLE, INTUITIVE programs and am certainly NOT anywhere ready for Photoshop CS whatever!
After having these programs sit on my computer, I decided to try to see if I could figure them out. When I opened Aperture, this is what first comes up.
“Welcome to Aperture 3.2
Your library needs to be upgraded to work with this version of Aperture. Once upgraded, you will not be able to use this library with previous versions of Aperture.
Upgrading a library from previous versions of Aperture 3 generally takes a few minutes or less, though larger libraries will take longer. After that, Aperture 3.2 will upgrade your library's thumbnails, but you can use the application during that time.
Tip: To open a different library, quit Aperture and hold the Option key down while starting Aperture
Current Library Location:
Jadzia (home) -----Pictures------Aperture Library
QUIT UPGRADE”
I have heard horror stories about moving your entire library to Aperture, ending up with 2 libraries, etc. etc. hence my previous reluctance in attempting Aperture. In addition, many of my photography friends are saying: Go with Lightroom 3.....you’ll love it!
So here is my dilemma. I don’t want to mess around with my iPhoto library. All I want to be able to do, is to isolate a few photos, export them to Aperture, Elements, and work on them there, then bring them back into iPhoto.
Can I do this? Should I forget about Aperture and Elements and look at purchasing yet another program like Lightroom?

Export those few photos via the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = Original to the Desktop. Then import them into the Aperture library. That would keep one copy in your iPhoto library and another in your Aperture library to edit, etc.
You can use Photoshop Elements 9 from within iPhoto as your editor of choice. However, if you edit a raw file in iPhoto with PSE9 the resulting edited version must be saved outside the iPhoto Library and imported back in as a new file. For editing jpegs just do a Save (not a Save As) and it all will be kept within iPhoto.
Using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements as Your Editor of Choice in iPhoto.
1 - select Photoshop or Photoshop Elememts as your editor of choice in iPhoto's General Preference Section's under the "Edit photo:" menu.
2 - double click on the thumbnail in iPhoto to open it in Photoshop. When you're finished editing click on the Save button. If you immediately get the JPEG Options window make your selection (Baseline standard seems to be the most compatible jpeg format) and click on the OK button. Your done.
3 - however, if you get the navigation window
that indicates that PS wants to save it as a PS formatted file. You'll need to either select JPEG from the menu and save (top image) or click on the desktop in the Navigation window (bottom image) and save it to the desktop for importing as a new photo.
This method will let iPhoto know that the photo has been editied and will update the thumbnail file to reflect the edit..
NOTE: With Photoshop Elements the Saving File preferences should be configured as shown:
I also suggest the Maximize PSD File Compatabilty be set to Always. In PSE’s General preference pane set the Color Picker to Apple as shown:
Note: to switch between iPhoto and PS or PSE as the editor of choice Control (right)-click on the thumbnail and select either Edit in iPhoto or Edit in External Editor from the contextual menu. If you use iPhoto to edit more than PSE re-select iPhoto in the iPhoto General preference pane. Then iPhoto will be the default editor and you can use the contextual menu to select PSE for your editor when desired.

You need to remove all software that you acquired from the Mac App Store, including newer versions of OS X. These are all registered to you and encoded with your Apple ID in the licensed copy. You cannot legally pass any of the software to the new owner, which is why Apple states to erase the Mac and return it to the version of OS X that shipped from the factory on the Mac. You must also remove any older Apple software that you installed by DVD or pass the DVD to the new owner with the Mac.

No you don't.
Mac's auto-defragment by writing 2GB+ sized files and smaller to one space on the drive, so you really don't need to worry about it.
If your going to parititon your drive or need a large space of free space, then Carbon Copy Cloning the entire OS x parittion to a external drive, option booting off of it and then erasing and reverse cloning is the approved method of defragmenting and freeing up disk space, rahter than using defragmentaiton software that can cause issues and make the machine inoperatible.

If you need steps to *cough* clean your Mac of caches and whatnot less your kid/wife/mother/girlfriend/boss, see's it then the steps are as follows.
1: Clean/clear your browser caches first, delete your history etc. from within the program itself, delete any files on the machine by dragging to Trash and emtpy Trash (secure erase not needed if you follow the steps later)
2: Download CCleaner for the Mac and run that
3: Download OnyX for the Mac and run all the cleaning and maintainece, reboot at the end.
4: For scrubbing hard drives of traces (deleted files), use Apple's Disk Utility > Erase Free Space option: Zero (or 7x if you need military/foresic level type deletion, but it takes overnight to complete)
Make sure your browser plug-ins are current, Flash, Silverlight especially.

And your Mac needs more codecs, search for Perian, VLC and Flip4Mac, install those.

Check the eBay listing. Did it state the device was Activation Locked? If not, then make a claim as Meg stated and get a refund. You will not be able to activate the phone and no one can help you contact the owner, unless that is the person that sold the device. If they cannot remove the phone from their account because it is not theirs, then refund is your route. Even Apple cannot assist with locating the previous owner.
