Need to run chkdsk on N100

Hi,
I have a Lenovo 3000 N100 laptop running Vista. I have a corrupt file and need to run chkdsk. But it doesn't run at boot time no matter how many times I've scheduled it to run. Lenovo didn't include a system disk and I don't see any "system partition". So... How do I boot this machine on something other than disk C so I can run chkdsk on disk C?
Can I make a boot disk with the chkdsk utility the way you used to do long ago with MSFT systems?
I made an R&R CD and it boots. Is there some secret to getting to a regular DOS window and maybe Lenovo was smart enough to put chkdsk on it?
Thanks,
Willi

Well... I ran "a" chkdsk...
This won't help anyone with no access to other system software, but I rummaged around at work and found a "special" Windows XP boot disk with some basic software available, much like Lenovo's R&R disk. It boots on my N100, has a simple menu with a "command prompt" option, and the disk contains a chkdsk utility. Since my C partition is NFTS, I figured I'd let the XP chkdsk do it's thing. After fixing the offending file(s) (looked like 3 sectors), I rebooted Vista off of C:, and so far all is well. Now I can proceed with installing Vista SP2.
It would be really nice if the Lenovo R&R disk had a Command prompt option and contained chkdsk to do this. Tossing a file is my first choice before blindly overwriting the C: disk and then having to reinstall all my software and updates.

Conflicting information regarding running chkdsk on replica volumes.

I am seeing conflicting information on using chkdsk on replica volumes. I have a disk replica that appears to have a corrupted file that is preventing the tape backup from completing. I have seen suggestions on TN that using chkdsk /f against
the replica volume could fix the problem but I also see information on Technet (.bb795857.aspx) that it could also cause a loss of all recovery points. Has anyone successfully run this against a replica volume in DPM 2012 R2 with no loss of recovery
points?
Thanks,

Hi,
Running chkdsk on the Replica can be done without with out too much concern as Shadow copy volume is still online and VSS can track changes made to the Replica and perform copy-on-write (cow) to maintain current active snapshot.
Running chkdsk on the "recovery point" volume takes some precautions. You need to cancel any running and all future scheduled jobs that effect the datasource whose recovery point volume you want to run chkdsk on. This is because while chkdsk
has taken the volume offline to have exclusive use, any writes to the replica could lead to invalidating the shadow copies. In theory, VSS Shadow copy protection mode should prevent that, but to be safe, I would take the extra precaution.

Help needed to run JSTL 1.1 in Tomcat 6.0.16

Hi All,Help needed to run JSTL 1.1 in Tomcat 6.0.16. I am trying to run the example given in http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/jndi-datasource-examples-howto.html The example tries to connect to MySQL database from JSP using JSTL and JNDI Datasource.I am running the example using Eclipse 3.4.2 using Sysdeo plugin to start and stop Tomcat server from Eclipse IDE.
My web.xml file has <web-app xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:web="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd" id="WebApp_ID" version="2.5">
</web-app>
and test.jsp has proper taglib directives
<%@ taglib prefix="sql" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/sql" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %>
I have placed the jstl.jar and standard.jarof the jakarta-taglibs-standard-1.1.2.zip under E:\Deepa\workspace\DBTest\WebContent\WEB-INF\lib directory also placedcontext.xml file under E:\Deepa\workspace\DBTest\WebContent\META-INF and the content of context.xml is as below

Now while running the example, Eclipse creates one DBTest.xml file under C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\conf\Catalina\localhost
which has the following line:
<Context path="/DBTest" reloadable="true" docBase="E:\Deepa\workspace\DBTest" workDir="E:\Deepa\workspace\DBTest\work" />

When running the same example, by creating a local server in Eclipse(creating new Server connection pointing to same Tomcat 6.0 installation) it runs fine without any error.

Hi evnafets,
Wow, very helpful information, great insight into working of Eclipse. Thanks a lot.
I have one more question. I have a context.xml file under {color:#0000ff}E:\Deepa\workspace\DBTest\WebContent\META-INF{color} folder and that has the Resource element to connect to MySQL database:
{code{color:#000000}}{color}<Context path="/DBTest" docBase="DBTest" debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">

{color:#0000ff}url="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/javatest?autoReconnect=true"/>{color}
{color:#0000ff}</Context>{color}As usual when running application in local Tomcat server of Eclipse, this data source works fine. But when I run the application on Tomcat, by starting Sysdeo plugin from Eclipse, the DBTest.xml file created in C:\Tomcat 6.0\conf\Catalina\localhost has the context entry as<Context path="/DBTest" reloadable="true" docBase="E:\Deepa\workspace\DBTest\WebContent" workDir="E:\Deepa\workspace\DBTest\work">
</Context>The<Resource> element I have specified in the context.xml of \WebContent\META-INF folder is not taken into account by Tomcat and it gives the following error:May 21, 2009 5:20:04 AM org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve invoke

Need to run fmsedge process without root access

On Linux, the fmsedge process needed to run without root access.

I see that in the release notes
new in this release:
1937396
On Linux, the fmsedge process needed to run without root access.
However I have not found any documentaion on how to do this?
I would love to run the fmsedge process run as non-root so tht root does not own the 1935 listening port.
fmsedge   26837 root   19u IPv4 4007676       TCP localhost:19350 (LISTEN)

Need to run the package

Hi friends,
i need to run a package which will send a mail as soon after it runned. I have a package. But i need to run that package for each and every 10 min in a day. For that how i can create a job to execute that package.
As a result of the job for each and every 10 min ill be receiving a mail. How to create a job to execute my package for every 10 min.
Regards,
Mini

Hi srikanth and hoek,
Thanks for your reply.
i dont know why the job is not running and executing the package.
if i compiled the package separately means, i can able to execute it successfully and also im receiving mails correspondingly.
begin
it_check_overdue_issues.email_overdue;
end;But if i tried to execute the above package using a job means, it is not running corresponding to the time and also not receiving emails. This is my DBMS_JOB query that i used, it is compiling successfully without errors, but not working what is wrong with it.
DECLARE
    jobno number;
BEGIN
    DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT(
        job => jobno,
        what => 'BEGIN it_check_overdue_issues.email_overdue; END;',
        next_date => SYSDATE,
        interval => 'SYSDATE + (2/1440)');
    COMMIT;
END;Regards,

Need to run the rescheduling job V_V2 whenever goods are received

Hi,
Whenever Goods are received into the warehouse then the rescheduler program v_v2 need to be run only for that particular material automatically.
Any help or suggestions would really be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sre

Balaji,
Thanks for your quick response.
Currently we are running V_v2 as a background job every night for all the materials.
But now we need to run it for a material for which goods are received.
If i run it as background job then it has to be run for a specific set of materials or for all the materials in the plant.
But my need is whenever I receive Goods through MIGO, I need to run V_v2 automatically for the material for which i received goods.
Hope its clear now...
Thanks,
sre

Need to master password and need to run install dvd

For some reason it is not accepting my admin password, then it takes me to the master password, after i enter it if asked me if i want to reset admin password. I click yes, then it asked for new password and to verify and no matter what i enter it does not accept it. strange. So I guess I need to run the disk that came with computer to change the master password but all I get when I start computer is logg in screen..how do i run disk on start up before logg in screen?
Id appreciate any help, thanx in advance.

Insert the install disk that came with your Mac, restart the Mac, and hold down the "c" key until you see the "spinning gear" boot icon.

Need to run "clearfault" on M5000

I have a customer that has an M5000 not under maintenance with Oracle. They have a fault condition on the frame and they need to run "clearfault" to clear the condition. Will Oracle supply the special password without a contract?

Bob,
See if your customer can open a support call on a Time-and-Materials basis.
(Have them be seated when they're quoted the T&M fees.)
That will get a Service Engineer to the customer's site with the password to fix the system.
That SE will input it to the chassis and the system will get repaired.
Also request that the SR be dispatched and escalated through the customer's local District Service Manager with a request to waive the T&M charges. The DSM has the responsibility to maintain company Good Will and to maintain company profitability in the local district.
The worst that can happen is that the customer gets the service on a pay-as-you-go basis.
They could also get the charges waived if they put the system under contract.
They could also just get the charges waived.
It will all depend on what sort of relationship they have with the DSM.

Do I still need to run the catupgrd.sql??

Hi
I would like if I install the Oracle in the following procedure, do I still need to run the catupgrd.sql.
1. Install Oracle 10.2.0.1 software only( i.e. without create any database instance)
2. Install Oracle 10.2.0.2 patch
3. Create an Oracle Instance using DBCA
Do I still need to run the catupgrd.sql for the newly created database instance?
Denis

Do I still need to run the catupgrd.sql for the newly created database instance?No, you don't. Because database was created on already patched software.

What configuration of the new macbook pro do I need to run FCS 3 without choppy playback.

Yep, just wondering what configuration of the new macbook pro do I need to run FCS 3 without choppy playback or lagging. I'm thinking about the 7200rpm, 2.2ghz, antiglare, 4gb ram, with 1gb GPU graphics card configuration

Nothing wrong with the computer. Playback is dependent on the media and the drives.

Download content locally when needed by running task sequence functionality with Windows PE.

I am trying to understand what happens when the "Download content locally when needed by running task sequence" option in chosen on a task sequence deployment. My assumption is that any needed packages would not be identified
and downloaded until task sequence is kicked off.
Using task sequence boot media, it looks likes a package has been obtained before any task sequence has been selected. I am assuming the package was acquired during the WinPE boot process. Can anyone confirm that this is
the correct behavior when using the "Download content locally when needed by running task sequence" option? If not, how would WinPE be obtaining the PS100292 SCCM package?
This specific package contains and HTA file. Only one of several task sequences deployed to the All Unknown Computers make a call to the HTA file. The one that does, the HTA call is the very first step of the task sequence.
--Tony

Hi everyone! I figured what was going on here. I was using an ESX VM and the package was stored on the c:\ from previous attempts and troubleshooting. Long story short, I had to rip the HDD from the VM and add a new one to set every thing back.

Need to run windows on new imac with lion. where do i get windows for mac?

I have a new iMac and am new to Apple after 30+ years with PC-based hardware & software. First of all, and not to offend, but anyone who says Mac computers are easier to use than Windows computers must be talking about people who just came out of the jungle and are seeing their first computer. Sorry, I just needed to get that off my chest. That aside, I have legacy software that I need to run on the Mac (actually, one of the programs is CALLED Legacy). I'm told that if I want to use Bootcamp or Parallels software I need to install Windows on the Mac. Is that a special kind of Windows made for Mac, or will just any old Windows do? I've checked Bing and Google but they're so "ad-crazed" that I couldn't find anything.
I'm sure that, after 30 more years, I'll probably have the Mac OS down and find Windows 21 (or whatever they'll call it) to be difficult to use. .

Nope. Any flavor should work including both 32- and 64-bit versions. See these for more:

Do I need to run DNS on a colo server being accessed remotely via VPN?

My Mac Mini Server is located in a colo site. We generally use it for Web, email and a couple of application-specific services. It has a dedicated IP address. We have a separate DNS service we use to point to the domains on the server located remotely from the server. Forward and reverse lookups work fine from the server, even though the local DNS service is turned off.
However, we now have a couple of things we want to access remotely on the server via VPN (for example, some files via AFP). The firewall blocks remote AFP requests (using the built-in firewall, not a separate box). We can connect via VPN without problems. However, AFP does not work. If I allow AFP in the firewall and try to connect, no problems at all.
Since the Mini is located by itself and will never likely have anything connected to a "local network" (never running DHCP, etc.), there generally doesn't seem to be a need to run DNS on the server.
I suspect the problem is that when you VPN into the server you are on its "local network", whatever that means, so the DNS does not resolve since the local DNS service is not running. However, I am not positive of this.
Must we run local DNS? Does it have to mirror the remote DNS that we currently reference? Can we somehow "reference" the local DNS from VPN clients trying to access local services?
I hope this question makes some sense.

Bear with me please....
The Mac Mini is in a data center on a shelf, getting a direct connection to the Internet via ethernet with a fixed IP address (under the covers, I suspect that the data center is using some sort of router or switch, but I am not paying for a hardware firewall or other gateway). There is no local network for the Mini. It is not running DHCP, not handing out NAT addresses, etc. DNS is currently off. Rather than using the local DNS, the Mini is resolving its DNS needs with a DNS server located at another site, over the Internet. This seems to work fine (i.e., changeip confirms it is working and services seem to work).
I am currently using the software firewall built into SLS.
I want to turn on VPN so that remotely located computers can access services on the Mini without having to make the services visible through the firewall.
I am able to connect devices via VPN with little difficulty (iPhones, Macs, etc.). However, when I try to access services (let's use AFP as an example), I cannot access them UNLESS they are allowed through the firewall. This tells me that I am not seeing the services through the VPN, but rather through the Internet directly.
What I meant by "local network" is that the VPN allocates local IP addresses when devices log into the VPN service (10.0.x.x). There is no DHCP allocating these addresses, just VPN.
My question is: why can I not see the services on the Mini blocked by the firewall when successfully logged into VPN on the server? Isn't the whole point of the VPN to gain access to services behind the firewall?
I am guessing (with no particular information to support my thesis) that somehow without DNS running on the Mini, VPN clients are unable to access services on the Mini. I do not know for sure, however, if this is the problem. If it IS a problem, then the question is whether I should completely copy the DNS entries from the remote DNS server to the Mini and start the service. Will that solve the issue? Create conflicts with the DNS (since it is now located on both a remote service and on the Mini)? It certainly will create a maintenance headache since now I will have to maintain the DNS in both places.
I am hesitant to migrate all of my DNS services to the Mini (because I will also have to go to the domain registrars to change where they point, etc.) to eliminate the remote one. And I am not sure it will solve this problem anyway.
Sorry for all of the typing!

I need to run Java 6, not 7. Mozilla keeps wanting me to intstall plugin for 7. How can I get around this.

I need to run a program called Niagara. It will not run with Java 7 so I have uninstalled 7 and re-installed 6. Now, mozilla wants me to install a plugin in order to run the program. When I click install plugin, it takes me to the java site and wants me to download 7.

Do you get any Java error or security messages?
There has been a change in the Java security settings, see:
