Need to limit bandwidth used for patching by SCCM

We have multiple T1 and 2xT1 circuits that get maxed out when SCCM is patching multiple computers at a site. The HQ site has a DS3 so I'm looking for suggestions on how to best limit the traffic that the SCCM server can send to a particular site during business hours.

A couple of ways that I could think of:
One would be to control by port number if you can find those
The other would be by source address.
If the SCCM server have static address(es), you can match on that address going to whereever you want, or you can police inbound at the remote locations (but that means it's already left the core and used that bandwidth). You can create a time range, apply the time range to the acl, and the apply that to a class map which it would match on. You could then create a policy to match on the class and shape outbound during that timeframe.
HTH,
John

Need to undo the "use for new links" option...???

Hello- Probably an easy answer to this one- I'm just not seeing it.....My first link I made on the page I clicked "use this for new links". Now I don't want to use that format for new links anymore. Do I always have to remember which link was the first one I created and change that one? Do all of the link have to have the same effect? How do I undo the "use for new links" option?
Thanks!
Holly

That's how I thought it should work- there must be something wrong then because after I click "use for new" once, the options are greyed out for any link made after that. Only the original one lets me change it, then all the others follow suit with the changes made to the one. Didn't seem right. Think I should reload iLife?

Need a Vulnerability Severity Report for Patch Management

In the standalone version of patch management (v6.4) there was a dashboard feature on the server home page called Vulnerability Severity. It was a graphic chart that displayed the percentage of un-remediated applicable vulnerabilities vs applicable vulnerabilities grouped by vulnerability severity. This feature is not available in the BusinessObject Enterprise InfoView. It looks like the only way I have of getting this feature is to create a report, but I am not an expert at using InfoView. I was wondering if anyone had any tips on creating such a report?
The only predefined report that even comes close is the Vulnerability Analysis report, but it's hundreds of pages long. I need something on a single page, like a chart, showing the percentages grouped by vulnerability severity (critical, recommended, optional).

Calculate Bandwidth Utilization for E1 Using SNMP

Hi.
I need to calculate Bandwidth utilization for E1interface via SNMP.
I tried to use information from this article http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk648/tk362/technologies_tech_note09186a008009496e.shtml

DifInOctets = delta(ifInOctets)/delta(time)
As you can see I've got InBandwidth>100%
Why it so?
If I change ifSpeed from 2000000 to 2048*1024 bits per second (right value for E1 interface) it doesn't give me InBandwidth<100%
In attachment you can find a part of gateway config

You may keep on cracking your head against equations, it's up to you. If I were you I would have already installed Oracle 10g Grid Control and I would already have configured a 6 month retention period for the performance statistics and setup a report of resource consumption.

I need a program that can tell me the amount of bandwidth used by each host

Dear Friends
I need a program that can tell me the amount of bandwidth used by each host on the network in kb/s or mb/s.
And if possible which would also records a history of use,
what is the best program for this?
Thanks
Almir

Hello friend,
you can solve your problem with a netflow technology.NetFlow exports packets
with information about your data flows going throught your routers or switches.
(Usually src/dst IP address, src/dst ports, protocols, src/dst interfaces, num
of bytes, num of packets). In the analyzator software you can see exactly what
you need. See: http://www.cisco.com/go/netflow for more information about netflow.
NetFlow is NOT supported on all devices, but almost devices support it. The list of
supported devices can be found on the: http://support.caligare.com/kb/entry/42/
Our company is developing netflow analyzer (it is the second part of netflow analysis).
So if you want to know more, contact me at any time. Of course, you can use any other
netflow analyzers, there are many tool available .... free/commercial... the list of applications:

Please, rate if I helped you.
Kind regards,
Jan

Need to Deploy Distribution Points for 700 Offices on Windows 7 Systems with 128kbps of Bandwidth

Hello Everyone,
Need to deploy Distribution Points for 700 sites on windows 7 with 128kbps of link.During Office hours DP fails as entire 128 kbps of link is utilized.During non business hours it gets succeeded.
Setup for SCCM 2012-
1 Primary Server at DC
Secondary Server @ HO
100 DP's already created on link of 128 Kbps
Is there any option of creating Offline DP's in 2012......
How can I fastern the Process of DP Creation??????
Any help would be highly appreciated.......
Regards
Saurabh

Hi Jeff/Torsten,
Thanks for the revert.
Just to inform you that I need to Create fresh Distribution Point on Windows 7 systems as above technet link is used once you have setup distribution points if you need not have to utilized your 128kbps bandwidth in that scenario I can prestage the content
and copy that content on remote DP.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Need solution for patch

Do you recommend patching clusters? I've heard people say that when you get a stable cluster environment you pretty much want to leave it alone.

Hi This is Prabhuram Devar I believe you're asking about patch clusters (i.e., recommended patch clusters). If so, yes, Sun recommends the use of Recommended Patch Clusters and Sun Alert Packs. The recommended Patch Clusters reflect the current version of all the patches required to address the Sun Alert issues. Some customers have adopted a policy of periodically applying the current Recommended Patch cluster to a system. While this strategy does address all Sun Alert issues, it also introduces more changes to the system than is necessary. Note that reapplying the current Recommended Patch Cluster on a scheduled basis is not necessary
Somebody were asking yesterday that can you manage patches when some become obsolete
The SUNW_OBSOLETES field identifies patch accumulation and obsolescence. Sometimes bug fixes or new features cause two or more existing patches to become closely intertwined. For example, a bidirectional, hard-code dependency might exist between two patches. In such cases, it might be necessary to accumulate the functionality of two or more patches into one patch, thereby rendering the other patch or patches obsolete. The patch into which the other patch's functionality is accumulated specifies the patch ID or IDs of the patch or patches that it has obsoleted. This information is in the SUNW_OBSOLETES field in the pkginfo files delivered in the patch's sparse packages. This declaration is called explicit obsolescence.
The patch accumulation can only work one way. That is, if Patch A accumulates Patch B, Patch A now contains all of Patch B's functionality. Patch B is now obsolete. No further revisions of Patch B will be generated.
Due to the accumulation of patches, a later revision of a patch "implicitly" obsoletes earlier revisions of the same patch. Patches that are implicitly obsoleted are not flagged in the SUNW_OBSOLETES field. For example, Patch A-Revision xx does not need to explicitly obsolete Patch A-Revision x-1 with a SUNW_OBSOLETES entry in the pkginfo file.
Note: For the Solaris 10 OS (releases after August 2007), a patch might be released that contains no new changes. This patch might state that it obsoletes another patch that was released some months earlier. This is a consequence of the Solaris Update patch creation process. If you have the obsoleted patch installed, and the new patch does not list any new changes, you do not need to install this new patch.
For example, the Solaris 10 timezones patch 122032-05 was obsoleted by patch 125378-02. If you already have 122032-05 installed, there is no need to install 125378-02, because patch 125378-02 does not deliver any new changes.

Just got Prosoft drive genius 3 software, and it's telling me that the external hard drive that i am using for my time machine back up drive needs to be defragmented. is it wise to do this or should i not??

just got Prosoft drive genius 3 software, and it's telling me that the external hard drive that i am using for my time machine back up drive needs to be defragmented. is it wise to do this or should i not??

Let's hope a couple things: that you have bootable clones of your drives also; that the backup drive for TimeMachine has over 3x capacity of the data you plan and are storing. I would also switch TM backup drives so you have a 2nd.
Fragmented free space affecting performance happens when the drive is too full which may mean there isn't enough free space for a full backup set.
1.5TB for backing up 500GB, while WD Green 3TB is $140 and WD Black 1.5TB is, about the same price.
I'd be worried about the integrity and directory, and whether you can afford to lose that drive. Defragging is also a very slow operation. the ideal: to just clone a drive, or start over with another drive and wait. cloning TM volumes has not been done or has it? SuperDuper hoped to but I don't think they or Bombich's CCC made it there.
Trouble with highly fragged is when free space gets to 20% normally, 1/3 or so though for TM volumes, and finding where and a chunk of space for the file being written. Does TM use large spare image files of like 2GB?
Best would be to ask in the TimeMachine section Snow Leopard
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.6_snow_leopard?view= discussions#/?tagSet=1009
where there are some good FAQ and tutorials, and people that know the ins-and-outs and shortcomings.

Considering buying a Mac Mini but I need to know about support for dual monitors using DVI connectors.

I have a couple of DVI monitors and I'm looking to replace my Windows desktop with a Mac Mini. I found an article that says it supports dual monitors with Thunderbolt, but I can't find any discussion of using it with existing monitor, or running multiple DVI displays off a single Thunderbolt port.
Has anyone done this? If so, what's the best way to achieve it?

Yes, the Mac Mini has both an HDMI and Thunderbolt/MiniDisplay Port and supports dual displays in either Mirroring or Extended Desktop Mode.
It ships with an HDMI to DVI adapter that you can use for one DVI Display.
For the second DVI display you will need to buy a > Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter and plug that into the Thunderbolt/MiniDisplay Port.

I've just installed CS6 creative suite mainly for photoshop CS6. It comes with camera raw 7.0.something, but need something newer to use my canon 6d. When I download camera raw 8.5 and install the raw converter doesnt work anymore, wont even open or isnt available anymore in the plugin list. Tried to reinstall everything for a few times, but nothing helps.

When I search for updates the raw converter doesnt get update automaticly. Frustrating, is costing me the whole morning.

TS3510 I have 3 different apple devices using the same Apple ID and would like to use FaceTime to call from one device to the other. Do I need a different Apple ID for one of the devices in order to do that?

I have 3 different apple devices (iPod Touch, iPad and MacBook Pro) using the same Apple ID and would like to use FaceTime to call from one device to the other. Do I need a different Apple ID for one of the devices in order to do that?

I found this on a related question in the Community:
Yes you can do it. I do it with 4 different devices all using the same Apple ID.
You need to associate different email addresses for each device in order to use those email addresses as the "contact at" email address. The reason the calls are dropping on you now is that what you are trying to do is like calling yourself on your own phone.
You can also create new iCloud accounts on each device simply to use for FaceTime, but I'm guessing that the users of the other two devices have their own email addresses which will make this work for you quite easily.
Take a look at this for more information.
The seems to go against what Gail said and the issue you raised about buying dup apps was my first concern. If this other post is correct, how to I set a different "contact at" in the iPod Touch?

HT5622 We are a family of 4, each with their own apple device. Is it best for us to set up individual apple ID's for things like ITunes? If we do can the same e-mail address be used for all of them or do we need to create e-mails for the kids? Thank-you

Thank-you

1. Yes, it is.
2. You may be able to use the same address by adding a plussed suffix to it, such as [email protected] If that doesn't work, create separate emails.
