Network requirements for deploying RAC in VM manager V3 with a RAC template

Now I have two VM servers and installe VM manager on another server.
Each server has only one NIC with one port.
I have deployed single virtual machines successfully on the two VM servers.
Can I deploy RAC with a RAC template with the two VM servers.
How do I need to do with the network?

Yes. Create a new virtual MAC/NIC.
Should you do this?????
NO.
RAC requires a dedicated NIC. Testing... you will be okay but don't expect good performance. You can not do this in production.

  • Network requirements for SQL Server Replication

    Hi,
    Can any one tell me what is network requirements for SQL Server replication.
    I have successfully configured the replication on LAN with active directory but I am unable to configure it on WAN.
    Can anyone tell me how WAN can be configured for sql server replication. 
    Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

    Muhammad Imran

    Hi Muhammad,
    In addition to Prashanth’s post, please also check the following things  to optimize SQL Server replication with a WAN link.
    • Initialize the Subscriber from a backup.
    Publishing the execution of stored procedures as opposed to replicating each operation performed by the stored procedure.
    Leveraging Subscription Streams.
    For more information, please review the following blog:

  • What are the network requirements for the Remote Panel Server?

    What are the network requirements for the Remote Panel Server?
    I've been trying for a while now to setup a Remote Panel.  I can connect to my computers remote panel from other computers on my LAN but nowhere else.  
    When ever I use the web publishing tool it gives me a URL in this format:  http://Computer-Name.Corporate-Name.local:8086/VI-Name.html Apparently this means I have a local DNS server and this URL has no meaning from the public.
    When I try connecting with the Operate>>Connect to Remote Panel..., I get this error message:
    "Connecting to remote panel server...
    Remote panel connection refused by specified server: Make sure LabVIEW Web Server is enabled on specified server"
    I got the same error when I tried to host a remote panel from my laptop at home, on my Wi-Fi.  Is there some network or firewall setting I'm not seting?  Could it be my server or router or private network?
    My goal is to be able to host Remote Panels from my laptop while I am travailing internationally, by using 4G mobile internet.  Is that even passable?
    Solved!

    Have you enabled the Remote Panel Server in the Web Server options on the server?

  • List of sql services required for deployment server?

    What are the role of list of sql services in case of BizTalk, like notification service is required for BAM.
    Along with can any one let me know the minimum services of SQL required on production.
    1.Database Engine Services
     SQL Server Replication
      Full-Text Search
    2.Analysis Services
    3.Reporting Services
    4.Shared Features
     Business Intelligence Development Studio
     Client Tools Connectivity
     Integration Services
     Management Tools – Basic
    Is it mandatory to install  analysis, integration services on production server.
    Please suggest!
    Fred

    Sorry, that is not correct.  SQL components beyond Database Services are required in most circumstances.
    It's important you understand what to install based on your application requirements.
    The definitive guides can be found here:
    BizTalk Server 2009:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=4066
    BizTalk Server 2010:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa561167.aspx
    BizTalk Server 2013:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj248688(v=bts.80).aspx
    As a matter of practice, I always install all BizTalk realted SQL Server features, even if they are not used.  This is for consistency across environments, reliable patching and to accomodate any future BizTalk app features.

  • Configuration Requirement for Integrated Planning in BI 7.0 with JAVA Addin

    Hi,
    We have BI 7.0 with Java Add-in installation newly migrated to Unicode.
    BW consultants (I am BASIS Consultant) want to use "Integrated Planning".  I already checked IMG link of it & JCO destinations mentioned there are not in J2EE engine.   Even I am not able to create b'cos current setup is not on SLD.
    I would really appreciate your help on below queries :
    1) Can I configure Integrated Planning without using SLD ?
    2) Do I need to install BI JAVA to running Integrated Planning ?
    3) Do I need to install EP & EP Core ?
    I already checked most of SDN thread but sorry couldn't able to get answer to above questions.   I have checked SAP Notes : 901022, 919850, 917950.
    Your early reply would be highly appreciated.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Narsing.

    Hi Balaji,
    Thanks for information.   One thing to update with JAVA/JAVA addin portal core components gets installed.   So I didn't installed EP.  
    Now Integrated Planner is working fine.
    Thanks for your help.

  • SCCM 2012 - Network requirements for Client communication to primary in a Cross Forest Environment

    Hello, I have been trying to get some definitive answers on what network traffic is required between a client and a primary site versus a secondary in a cross forest scenario.
    Here is the scenario:
    Company A has an existing SCCM 2012 primary Site. Company B (Separate Forest) has now been brought in. One subnet on each side can route to each other and using that one subnet a two way forest
    trust has been setup. But the remote offices have IP address overlaps between companies. At some point in the future all assets on company B will be re-IP and brought over to Company A domain. But in the interim it would be nice to get SCCM cross forest clients
    working. Upgrading to a CAS model with two Primaries would not be preferred here as this is a temporary solution. 
    My questions are as follows.
    If a secondary site is deployed into Company B Forest/Network. I have seen people online elude to that clients will still need to communicate to the Primary located at Company A, even though they
    are assigned to a secondary on Company B’s network. Is this true? Is there any workarounds for this? Is a NAT back to the primary acceptable, or is reverse lookup required?
    Will the Primary need to communicate directly to the clients in Company B? If this is in fact a requirement, then this would be a show stopper. But if its only needed for things like client pushes,
    then we could work around it.
    Thanks

    "But the remote offices have IP address overlaps between companies"
    Technically, this is unsupported because clients, depending upon your boundaries, will not be able to find a local DP since they use IP addresses for this. The only way to work around this is to use AD Site boundaries.
    "though they are assigned to a secondary"
    Clients are *never* assigned to a secondary site -- that's not what secondary sites are for. Yes, clients require communication with an MP in the primary site where they are assigned. There is no way to change this or work-around this except to put
    an MP from the primary site closer to those clients and use the new MP affinity option in R2 CU3.
    Reverse lookups are only used to verify names by applications that wish to have this type of functionality (which are very few in number) and have nothing to do with true network traffic. NATing is an issue for the reason I gave above -- DP location.
    Remote control, client push, and WoL won't work either because there is no way for the traffic to reach the destination behind the NAT.
    All client *agent* communication in ConfigMgr is client initiated in ConfigMgr (remote control, client push, and WoL -- as just mentioned -- are sort of exceptions to this but they don't really involve the client *agent*.)

  • What are the host network requirements for a 2012 R2 failover cluster using fiber channel?

    I've seen comments on here regarding how the heartbeat signal isn't really required anymore - is that true?  We started using Hyper-V in its infancy and have upgraded gleefully every step of the way.  With 2012 R2, we also upgraded from 1gb iSCSI
    to 8GB Fiber Channel.  Currently, I have three NICs in use on each host.  One for "No cluster communication" on it's own VLAN.  Another for "Allow cluster network communication on this network" but NOT allowing clients, on
    a different VLAN.  And lastly the public network which allows cluster comms and clients on it (public VLAN).
    Is it still necessary to have all three of these NICs in use?  If the heartbeat isn't necessary any more, is there any reason to not have two public IPs and do away with the rest of the network?  (two for fault tolerance)  Does Live Migration
    still use Ethernet if FC is available?  I wasn't sure what all has changed with these requirements since Hyper-V first came out.
    If it matters, we have 5 servers w/160GB RAM, 8 NICs, dual HBAs connected to redundant FC switches, going to two SANs.  We're running around 30 VMs right now.  
    Can someone share their knowledge with me regarding the proper setup for my environment?  Many Thanks!

    Hi,
    You can setup cluster with a single network but that leaves you with single point of failure on the Networking front, it is still recommended to have a heartbeat network.
    Live migration would still happen though Ethernet, it has nothing to do with FC. Don't get confused, you had iSCSI for storage which used one of your VLAN and now you have FC for your storage.
    Your hardware specs looks good. You can set up the following networks -
    1. Public Network - Team two or more NICs (based on bandwidth aggregation)
    2. Heartbeat Network - Don't use teamed Adaptor
    3. Live Migration - Team two or more NICs (based on bandwidth aggregation)
    Plan properly and draw guidelines to visualize and to remove single point of failure at all points.
    Feel free to ask if you have some more queries.
    Regards
    Prabhash

  • Minimum requirements for deploying a package on Sql Server 2008

    I am trying to setup a restricted login to deploy packages. At the very least I need to avoid using the sysadmin server role however all of my testing seems to point to my restricted login requiring it which sort of defeats the purpose of a restricted
    login. Without the sysadmin account I get the following error: Create failed for JobStep

    Role
    Read action
    Write action
    own package roles.
    db_ssisoperator

    Stop all currently running packages.
    Sysssispackages Table
    The sysssispackages table in msdb contains the packages that are saved to SQL Server. For more information, see sysssispackages
    (Transact-SQL).
    The sysssispackages table includes columns that contain information about the roles that are assigned to packages.
    The readerrole column specifies the role that has read access to the package.
    The writerrole column specifies the role that has write access to the package.
    The ownersid column contains the unique security identifier of the user who created the package. This column defines the owner of the package.
    Permissions
    By default, the permissions of the db_ssisadmin and db_ssisoperator fixed database-level roles and the unique security identifier of the user who created the package apply to the reader role for packages,
    and the permissions of the db_ssisadmin role and the unique security identifier of the user who created the package apply to the writer role. A user must be a member of the db_ssisadmin, db_ssisltduser,
    or db_ssisoperator role to have read access to the package. A user must be a member of the db_ssisadmin role to have write access.

  • What kind of network required for SMS?

    Hi everybody, I have a question concerning SMS:
    I travel a lot, and SMS is THE way of keeping communication affordable, and it normally works via the normal mobile network incurring just limited charges.
    Just now I read somewhere between the lines of some posts, that the iphone needs the EDGE-network for SMSing. That would be a huge disappointment, probably able to keep me from buying the phone, as it would mean that
    1. in countries with no EDGE network there's no SMS using the iphone at all
    2. in foreign countries where there is, it would require data roaming, causing significant charges, making an SMS pointless.
    Can anyone please confirm true or false?
    Thanks!

    What you have been told is simply not true: SMS is a voice—rather than data—service and standard voice plans support the transmission and reception of short message service messages across most carrier networks. You do not need an optional data plan or access to a data medium such as EDGE to send and receive these messages.
    Some plans bundle a defined number of transmissions and receptions into a monthly voice plan fee. Options for additional included SMS messages or unlimited messaging are widely available.

  • Assistance required for deploying a validation handler in OIM 11g

    Hi All,
    I wanted to deploy a validation handler in OIM 11g so that I can check that the telephone number that is entered by the user has length of ten and all of them are digits.
    I created a new eclipse workspace called TelephoneValidationHandler on the OIM Host machine. I created a new Java project in the workspace with the name TelephoneValidationHandler. I created a class called TelephoneValidationHandler in this project. Put in the following code in this java file -
    /* TelephoneValidationHandler.java */
    package com.custom;
    import java.io.Serializable;
    import java.util.HashMap;
    import oracle.iam.platform.kernel.ValidationException;
    import oracle.iam.platform.kernel.ValidationFailedException;
    import oracle.iam.platform.kernel.spi.ValidationHandler;
    import oracle.iam.platform.kernel.vo.BulkOrchestration;
    import oracle.iam.platform.kernel.vo.Orchestration;
    public class TelephoneValidationHandler implements ValidationHandler{
              @Override
              public void initialize(HashMap<String, String> arg0) {
              // TODO initialization
              System.out.println("***********************************************************************************");
              System.out.println("************************** Init validate event handler ****************************");
              System.out.println("***********************************************************************************");
              @Override
              public void validate(long processId, long eventId, Orchestration orchestration)
              throws ValidationException, ValidationFailedException {
              System.out.println("************************** Beginning of validation *************************");
              HashMap<String, Serializable> parameters = orchestration.getParameters();
              String telephone = (String) parameters.get("Telephone Number");     
              //String regex="[0-9]{10}";
                   if (telephone.length()==10)
                        for(int i=0; i<10; i++)
                             if (Character.isDigit(telephone.charAt(i))){
                                  continue;
                             else
                                  throw new ValidationFailedException();
                        System.out.println("****************** Validated *********************");
              else
                   System.out.println("*************EXCEPTION OCCURRED*******************");
              throw new ValidationFailedException();
              System.out.println("************************** End of validation *************************");
              @Override
              public void validate(long processId, long eventId, BulkOrchestration arg2)
                        throws ValidationException, ValidationFailedException {
              // TODO - N/A
                   System.out.println("************************** INSIDE BULK VALIDATE ***************************");
    I included the files in reference libraries as - right click on the project, click on Build Path -> Configure Build Path -> Add External JARs. In this I selected the jars that were needed to compile the code successfully and i selected them from the place where they exist in the OIM host for eg. C:\Oracle\Middleware\server\platform\iam-platform-kernel.jar path for iam-platform-kernel.jar.
    Now i created a jar file out of this compiled project by right clicking on the project name and clicking Export -> Java -> JAR File. Selected the .classpath and .project files to export as well. Selected first option 1. Export generated class files and resources option. Other three existing options apart from this one which i selected were: 2. Export all output folders for checked projects. 3. Export Java source files and resources 4. Export refactorings for checked projects. So with the 1st option selected, I clicked next and then selected Generate New Manifest file in the final screen and clicked on Finish. Exported this by the name TelephoneValidationHandler.jar to desktop. If I open this jar by changing extension to zip, I see the following folder structure inside it :
    com -> custom -> TelephoneValidationHandler.class
    META-INF -> MANIFEST.INF
    .classpath
    .project
    I created a folder called lib and placed this jar file inside this lib folder. Then outside this lib folder, i placed the plugin.xml file created for this as follows:
    plugin.xml ->
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <oimplugins xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <plugins pluginpoint="oracle.iam.platform.kernel.spi.ValidationHandler">
    <plugin class="com.custom.TelephoneValidationHandler" version="1.0" name="TelephoneValidationHandler">
    </plugin>
    </plugins>
    </oimplugins>
    Now I selected the lib folder and plugin.xml and created a new zip file by the name TelephoneValidationHandler.zip which will be used for plugin registration. The zip folder directly inside it has the structure - plugin.xml file and lib folder having the jar file inside it.
    lib -> TelephoneValidationHandler.jar
    plugin.xml
    Now I went to the directory C:\Oracle\Middleware\server\plugin_utility and opened the ant.properties file in that and put in the values as:
    ant.properties ->
    # The installation directory for WLS
    wls.home=C:\\Oracle\\Middleware\\wlserver_10.3
    # The home directory for OIM. In case of shiphome its same as install directory
    oim.home=C:\\Oracle\\Middleware\\Oracle_IDM1\\server
    #login file name with path.
    login.config=C:\\Oracle\\Middleware\\Oracle_IDM1\\server\\config\\authwl.conf
    Now I opened a cmd prompt, traversed to C:\Oracle\Middleware\server\plugin_utility directory and typed in "ant -f pluginregistration.xml register" and executed this command.
    It asked for oim userid - xelsysadm, oim password: Password, server url: t3://oimhost:14000, name of plugin file with path: C:\\temp\\TelephoneValidationHandler.zip
    I got these errors in the redirector.out file in C:\Oracle\Middleware\server\plugin_utility :
    Error in registering the plugin. null
    Error occured during the use of plugin registering utility.
    And this is the detailed description in the redirector.err in C:\Oracle\Middleware\server\plugin_utility :

    But in the end of this run it still does show - BUILD SUCCESSFUL message but it obviously doesn't work properly because after this registration is done, I go to the MDS through command prompt and import the new EventHandlers.xml which I create as shown below:
    EventHandlers.xml ->
    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
    <eventhandlers xmlns="http://www.oracle.com/schema/oim/platform/kernel" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.oracle.com/schema/oim/platform/kernel orchestration-handlers.xsd">
    <validation-handler class="com.custom.TelephoneValidationHandler" name="TelephoneValidationHandler" entity-type="User" operation="ANY" order="1002" />
    </eventhandlers>
    This import of EventHandlers.xml is done to the path - /metadata/user/custom
    But after all this, whenever I try creating a new user, I don't even get to see the create user page. Instead I get a NullPointer exception thrown at me.
    Can someone please go through these above steps and tell me if there is any particular step I might be doing wrong??? Maybe the ant.properties is not set properly or maybe the ValidationHandler java code is not implemented properly. However as far as I see I think these steps are correct. I have checked with other posts in this category and followed them. However this error still exists. Please help me.
    Thanks,

    Hey You were right. I changed the plugin.xml file so that the plugin xml tag changed to <plugin pluginclass="..." ..> and now when I ran the ant utility to register the plugin, it did not give any errors. Instead I got a message saying Plugin registered successfully. Also then I went to the dev_oim schema and in that the plugins table and checked it. This time the plugin entry was present in the database in this table.
    Now I imported the EventHandlers.xml file using MDS utility as follows:
    Placed the EventHandlers.xml file in C:/temp/metadata/user/custom/EventHandlers.xml
    The EventHandlers.xml file is as mentioned earlier as follows:
    <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
    <eventhandlers xmlns="http://www.oracle.com/schema/oim/platform/kernel" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.oracle.com/schema/oim/platform/kernel orchestration-handlers.xsd">
    <validation-handler class="com.custom.TelephoneValidationHandler" name="TelephoneValidationHandler" entity-type="User" operation="ANY" order="1002"/>
    </eventhandlers>
    Now I changed the weblogic.properties file under C:/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_IDM1/server/bin file to have the entry as follows:
    metadata_from_loc=C:\ \tempThen went to the cmd prompt and navigated to this same folder. Then executed the command: weblogicImportMetadata.bat. It asked the user name : weblogic, password: password and then the url: t3://oimhost:7001
    There were no errors after this executed. I only got End of Import Metadata Script as the message.
    I then executed the "PurgeCache all" command while in the same directory.
    And gave the oimusername: xelsysadm, oimpassword: password and the oim server url: t3://oimhost:14000.
    I got the message :
    PurgeCache Login Success...
    Purging the cache categories:[all] is successful
    After this I logged in to the OIM console and tried to create a user and provided proper telephone number in the field. But when i clicked on Save after giving in these details, I got the following error on the OIM console:
    A system error occurred.
    When i go the oim server logs i see the following lines in it whenever I click on save for a new user:

    After this error occurred I logged into the database and queried the database with following queries:
    SELECT * FROM dev_oim.orchprocess ORDER BY ID DESC; -> Got the latest entry of process id for operation CREATE and stage as validation-handler but the status of this entry was FAILED.
    Then executed another query as follows to get the event details for the latest process id i got from above query results:
    select * from dev_oim.orchevents WHERE processid=1797 ORDER BY orchorder;The output of this query was:
    "ID"     "NAME"     "STATUS"     "PROCESSID"     "STAGE"     "ORCHORDER"     "RETRY" "CONTEXTID"     "RESULT"
    "7544"     "CreateUserValidationHandler"     "COMPLETED"     "1797"     "validation-handler"     "1"     "0"     "0"     "(BLOB)"
    "7543"     "TelephoneValidationHandler"     "FAILED"     "1797"     "validation-handler"     "2"     "0"     "0"     "(BLOB)"
    I already have pasted my java code initially above. Please guide me if anything wrong in the code or with the EventHandlers.xml file. After importing, I checked again by exporting the EventHandlers.xml file from the location where I had imported it and it did exist in that path.
    Thanks,

  • Licensing requirement for deploying Certificate Authority Server

    Is there any separate license that we need to purchase from Microsoft in order to use and implement Microsoft Certificate Authority Server
    in an organization. Or is it a free feature which comes as a part of Windows Server licensing.
    Also, do we require any separate license for clients connecting or using the certificates.
    If there is any licensing involved kindly share information of the same.
    Server - 2008 R2
    Clients - 7, 8, 8.1

    Hi Rahul,
    In addition, if there are any specific queries about licensing in the future, you may contact Microsoft via phone numbers listed here:

  • Is Snow Leopard required for Iphoto11, or can i just install with Os X 10.6.8?

    This was my question

    Well, better yet, you can upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion provided your computer meets the requirements.
    Upgrade Paths to Snow Leopard, Lion, and/or Mountain Lion
    You can upgrade to Mountain Lion from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Mountain Lion can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for $19.99. To access the App Store you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.6 or later installed.
    Upgrading to Snow Leopard
    You must purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.
         Snow Leopard General Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel processor
           2. 1GB of memory
           3. 5GB of available disk space
           4. DVD drive for installation
           5. Some features require a compatible Internet service provider;
               fees may apply.
           6. Some features require Apple’s iCloud services; fees and
               terms apply.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mountain Lion, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
         For a complete How-To introduction from Apple see Upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion.
