Network setup re-configured when Imac 800mhz hard wired to APextreme?

Does the network setup need to be re-configured when an Imac 800mhz hard wired to the APextreme?

If I follow your question right, the AirPort base station shouldn't need any re-configuration. Was the iMac connecting wirelessly before?

Combine wireless and hard-wired internet?

I currently use a cable modem, connected to my iMac via ethernet. I'm considering buying a new laptop, which I'd like to have wireless internet capability. I'd rather not "convert" the iMac to wireless. If I buy an Airport Express and connect it to the cable modem via USB, will that allow the laptop to have wireless access when I need it, but not screw up the iMac's hard-wired access?
FYI, I don't anticipate a need to create a wireless network between the two Macs, I'm just interested in each having internet access.

Hi, that looks like the wrong one, only one Ethernet port for the Modem as far as I can see...

It looks like you need an Airport Extreme to connect both Wireless, (802.11n), & Ethernet at the same time...

Network Setup, Please Help.

Hello there,
Decided to install Arch once again, but I'm totally stuck with network setup. I've tried many different combinations in the config files, but nothing at all seems to work. I know the device is working (with Windows), and my details are correct. Perhaps I've misplaced something.
On issuing a network restart, I receive a message saying "SIOCADDRT: No such device". A similar message is issued when the network stops. I can only ping my own IP, not even the router's.
Could anyone lend a hand? I'm pulling my hair out here!
Thanks.

OK... let's do this.
Your configurations seems correct, so to start troubleshooting we first ping your router with ping 192.168.1.1 do you get an answer? If you do good if you do not then as root issue this command: mii-tool to find out what is your Nic card doing and let's go from there.

Airport Networking a HD-Dead 700mHz iMac

Greetings:
My penniless home school would like to get Airport working on a donated 700mHz iMac with a dead hard drive by using BootCD. BootCD works perfectly, but I can't get it to Airport network. When I use Go - Connect to Server it always states "Connection Failed/No response from the Server." In Network pane I have a Amber light for "Airport is on but is not connected the a network" and the "Configure" button doesn't pop up the diagnosis panes as usually opens on regular machines. I'm wondering whether I'm missing crucial Network software that wasn't installed on the BootCD and how I can include it on a new BootCD disk, along with copying there the OpenOffice perferences on our Panther eMac (we store and run OpenOffice and its documents on flash drives, but the perfs don't work). Getting Airport working with this machine is very helpful because we just can't afford anymore ethernet cables at this stage. Any suggestions will be most appreciated!

If only the internal hard disk drive has failed due to wear and age, that could
be replaced with only a moderate amount of tedium, attention to detail, and
some degree of technical skill. The details are very important, though; so as
to not damage otherwise original wires, heat conduits, and other parts inside.
The iMac G4 700MHz built model is different than the later and similar PPC
based G4 iMac computers in specification and internal details; that said, a
few online sources and perhaps if you can locate one, a donated use of the
original Technical repair manual in PDF for the computer model could help.
Online, there are a few sources to read for instructions; sometimes, lacking in
detail when a process or appearance, or internal parts vary between versions.

a good source of additional information on the Display and for troubleshooting.
The ability to repair these when only parts-swap is involved, would also translate
to an ability to replace a clock battery and upgrade internal RAM, and so on.
While some are easier to learn how to repair, others are entirely different...
Good luck & happy computing!

New Airport Extreme N wireless network setup questions (WDS, D-Link)

I have finally been able to set up my Airport Extreme N network after numerous attempts over the last few weeks. I was getting a very weak signal in front of the house where my wife's G4 is connected wireless to an old Airport card and where all the systems (XBOX 360; Wii and PS3) are also wirelessly hitting the network.
The current configuration is as follows: In the office in the back of the house I have an Airport Extreme N basestation connected to the cable modem and have three workstations (One Mac and two PCs) wired to it. I set up a WDS network, so I set up the Airport Expresses as remotes. In the living room I have another Airport Extreme N basestation (as a remote as well) that is hooking up to the XBOX 360, Wii and PS3. I have enabled WEP security (not effecting the XBOX 360 since it is now "wired"). Here is the weird thing - I have a PC laptop with a D-Link Xtreme N card ( DWA-652) that cannot connect to the network. I enter the WEP password but it does not connect. Am I missing something on the basestation setup? Do I need to add the MAC address of the card anywhere. When I use the laptop's built in wireless it connects with no problem. By creating a WDS network did I disable the n functionality of the base station(s)? I am a lttle condused.
Also, prior to going to an all Apple wireless network setup, I bought the D-Link Xtreme N Gigabit Router (DIR-655). I was regretfully about to return it to Best Buy but I had an idea which may or may not work. I know that the D-Link does not support WDS but if I was to set it up as the main router and added the "main" Airport basestation as a wired bridge could I maintain the WDS network? The reason I ask this is because I would love to keep the gigabit for the wired machines in the office. Also, I am wondering if the D-Link notebook card is incompatible with the Airport network.
All I know is that I have spent alot of money and sleepless nights just trying to set this network up but thankfully Best Buy has a thirty day return policy so I will return what I can't use.
I appreciate any help and advice anyone can give me.
Thanks.

Hello!
I have noticed that some manufacturers (Linksys and possibly D-LINK) only accept upper-case WEP keys only.
This drove me nuts when trying to integrate a Linksys PC PCMCIA card into my old "g" network.
As far as using WEP, it's bad and broken; but I understand that your choice of security is limited to the devices that you are trying to network.
For what it's worth, I have my network set up with the AEBS 'n' connected to my Cable Modem, with one of the ports going to a gigabit switch for my wired network. I then have two AirTunes set up as WDS extensions for music & Internet delivery to two separate areas. The AEBS 'n" serves up DHCP and routing for the entire network.
It works quite well; I get 54 mbits/sec for the two WDS AirTunes, and 145 mbits/sec to one of my ATV's. My gigabit wired machines see data rates of 15-27 MBytes/sec (depending on the type of transfer).
Good luck!

Can you use AirPrint to print to hard wired printer via your WiFi network?

Recently I bought an Officejet 6700 Premium e-All-in-One to serve all my PCs in the house and to use the AirPrint functionality for all the iPhones & iPads.
The printer is located in the basement office where there is poor wireless reception, and therefore connected with a wire (ethernet) to a wireless router one level up on the ground floor. The wireless router covers & connects everything (PCs, iPhones & iPads) in rest of the house.
I do not seem to be able to set up AirPrint when the printer is connected through the ethernet to the local network. Only when I unplug the ethernet cable and connect the printer wirelessly (with poor reception) to the wireless network, I get AirPrint to work ...... As soon as I plug in the Ethernet cable the WiFi of the printer shuts off and AirPrint does not function anymore.
Is there anyway for me to keep the printer "ethernet connected" through the wire and use AirPrint ??
I underdstand ther is a lot AirPrint is wireless, but why can it not be wireless from the iPhone/iPad to the wireless router and then through the ethernet cable to hard wired printer ? It's all on the same network with proper IP addresses etc. Do not understand why the printer also needs to connect wirelessly to the router to enable AirPrint.......
thanks for helping out,

I came across this discussion when looking for a solution to a similar problem. We have an AirPrint certified printer that does not have built-in Wi-Fi. Using a USB cable it worked well with our iMac, but we also wanted to use AirPrint with our iOS devices. In our situation, we cannot run an Ethernet cable from our router (a 4th generation Airport Extreme) to either our iMac or printer. With help from Apple Support, here is what became our solution.
Using an Ethernet cable, we connected an AirPort Express router (2012 model) to the printer to provide a Wi-Fi capability to the printer. AirPrint apparently will not work with a USB cable. Because the AirPort Express was being repurposed, we reset it using what Apple refers to as a “Factory” or “Default Settings reset.” With the reset completed, the Express became visible within Airport Utility, showing a connection to the Extreme. Within Airport Utility, click on the Airport Express to open its status window; click on the Edit button, then the Wireless tab, and then select “Join a wireless network” within the Network Mode options. This made the Express into a “wireless bridge” between the printer and the Extreme, allowing our iOS devices to see the AirPrint printer. Our iMac also connects wirelessly to the printer.
Within Airport Utility, we could have selected “Extend a wireless network” as the Network Mode, however because we rely on a wireless connection between the Extreme and Express, doing so has the potential of reducing throughput among Wi-Fi devices because of the resulting network overhead. We had been using Printopia to allow our iOS devices to work with an earlier non-AirPrint printer. To avoid conflicts we turned Printopia off, accessing it within the iMac’s System Preferences. AirPrint is easier to use and provides better printer output than did Printopia.
When our HP printer sleeps, the iMac computer wakes it up as needed, however the sleeping printer becomes invisible to the iOS devices. We hope to fix this weakness, possibly by resetting the printer's sleep setting.

All Mac network setup?

Hello all!
This is my first post here. Thanks for taking the time to help me with an answer to my question below.
I work for a small graphic design firm. We all work on iMacs here in our office (6 Macs total) with the exception of two PCs (1 for receptionist, 1 for data backup), and after a recent virus (Cryptolocker) hit one of our networked PCs, we're looking at going "all Mac" with our setup (if it's possible). I am here to ask for hardware/setup recommendations.
We have just a few needs as we plan our new network setup:
1) A central file repository with at least 4 - 5 TB of storage space for shared files, which all 6 Mac computers must have access to;
2) It has to be a wired network (for fastest file transfer speeds & security -- we already have tons of Cat5 cable installed);
3) A way to backup the central repository to a Cloud service automatically on a nightly basis.
We looked at a Time Capsule, but they max out at 3 TB and we weren't sure if 1) we could daisy chain multiples, and 2) whether they can be backed up to cloud storage in any way.
I am wide open to suggestions on what we need to buy in order to set up the kind of network that we need. I am a Mac convert, so I don't know all there is to know about networking Macs either, so treat me like a 10 year old kid when it comes to explaining/outlining what gear you think we should buy, what hooks up to what, and the system/hardware settings we may need.
I appreciate the time that any of you are willing to take to outline this for me. Thank you in advance for sharing your expertise!

Tesserax,
I have purchased a Western Digital My Cloud 2TB. Need Simple Step by Step guide for Optimal Apple Eco Setup, Sync, Organize, Maintain and Secure my media while freeing storage space on all devices, and maintaining anywhere accessibilty.
Western Digital has setup the drive on the network and it is recognized by iTunes, but they do not want me to move the libraries. iPhoto can import the My Cloud media into its library. They suggest copy'n'paste all media into the My Cloud public folders of Video, Photos and Music then delete the media from the devices. I dont see how you can Sync the iPhones, (future iPads), without moving the libraries, after all the object is to free space on the devices including the MacBooks.
How do I include the My Cloud into the MacBook Pro's Mountain Lion 10.8.5 TimeMachine Backup? (Leave MacBook Leopard 10.5.8 TimeMachine Backup for laptop only)
I have:

HP PSC 2510 all-in-one network setup problems

At the end of a long weekend of work, I've finished setting up my psc 2510 on a new wireless network. I use Tiger on two of my machines and Panther on the others. So I've posted advice over in the Tiger support forum, and I'm going to post the same instructions over here. (Moderators: I thought about just posting a link here to my other post, but I want to make sure that the search engine picks up this posting if someone does a search here.)
I have four machines total, two of them running OS X 10.4, the others running 10.3.9.
1. Start by hooking the printer up to a wired (ethernet) network. Print out a network config page (setup, 6, 1) when the printer shows its blue "networked" light. Dial the printer's URL into your web browser and enter the new network's info into the printer's embedded web server. If you get everything right, when you turn off the printer, disconnect the ethernet cable, and turn on the printer, you'll get that blue "networked" light after a minute or so.
If you don't see the light, print out another config page and check the "Wireless Status": "Scanning" means that the printer's having trouble connecting to the network. Your best bet is to temporarily turn off all wireless encryption/security and reconfigure the printer's connection. Once you have a connection, then try adding various sorts of security/encryption. In my experience, the printer doesn't do well if the SSID of the network isn't being broadcast or with a list of acceptable MAC addresses. In my old network I managed to get the printer running with WPA security, but this time I had to settle for WEP 128 bit security.
The Wireless Status will read "Disabled" if the printer has a USB cable or Ethernet cable attached. This means you need to unplug all cables (and possibly turn the printer off and on) to enable the wireless card. If the Wireless Status is "Disabled" even though you have no cables attached, you have probably reset the printer to factory defaults (see #2 below).
Things to watch for: is the default gateway of the printer the same as that of your new network? I had to change my new network's gateway to "192.168.1.1 addressing" from "10.0.1.1 addressing" because the printer was expecting "192 etc." after being hooked up to a Linksys router for several years.
Also, you may find you need to give the printer a self-assigned (manual) IP address, if other computers, once linked to the printer, lose printing and/or scanning capabilities a few days or weeks later. This can be set in the printer's web access server, but make sure to assign the printer an IP address that's compatible with the range of IPs that your router's is leasing to the network. I'm a novice at this network stuff, so sorry if I'm being vauge on this point.
2. It's possible I could have saved myself a lot of trouble setting up the printer for the network if I had reset the printer's network settings to factory defaults right at the start. But if you decide to follow HP's instructions and reset network settings to factory defaults, BEWARE: the printer's embedded web server can’t for some reason configure the printer to re-enable wireless networking. And the latest download of the hp all-in-one installer doesn’t contain the network config utility found on the original HP installation CD. (On this old CD, the config utility isn’t part of the install package, but it is invoked automatically during the installation process.)
SOLUTION: Run the PSC 2500 Series installer found on the HP CD, preferably from a Mac running an system older than Tiger. It might also be possible to avoid running the installer and just run the config utility.
From this point on, I'll assume you've managed to get the printer on your network. Here's how to get all your computers configured to use the psc's printer and scanner functions.
HP tech support advised me to download the latest installer/print driver and use that to install and configure the psc 2150. This is good advice, insofar as the old HP Director software has a memory leak and the old HP Scan was prone to crashing whenever the 2510 went into Energy Saving mode. But if your mac isn't running OX X 10.4 (Tiger), you'll find that your system doesn't seem to recognize the new print drivers installed with by the download. This is especially a problem if you follow HP tech support's advice and delete a bunch of files prior to upgrading from the old installer to the new one, as (I suspect) it was at this point that I deleted working printer drivers from my Macs running Mac OS 10.3.9.
So if you're running 10.3.9 or earlier, I advise you not to delete any files and to configure your computer for the print and scanner functions in the opposite order that HP advises.
Most important: through trial and error I discovered that the HP Setup application isn't able to configure the printer if more than one user is logged in (Fast User Switching!). (This is a particularly tricky error to diagnose as the only symptom is that the setup app keeps claiming that it "can't find device" even though in the stage just prior it had successfully detected it!) Log out all other users, then proceed with the following steps:
1. Go to Print Center (called Print Setup Utility in Tiger), delete your old psc printer (if any) and click "add printer". The psc should show up in HP IP printing or under Rendezvous (called Bonjour in Tiger), and when you click on it, the Add Printer utilty should automatically find the "HP All-in-one" printer driver. If something's gone wrong, though, you may get the message “Print Driver not installed”. That's what happened to me after I deleted files (see above).
SOLUTION: Run the PSC 2500 Series installer found on your original HP CD. When it finishes, it will start the HP setup assistant, in the course of which you'll be directed to go to the Print Center and add your printer. Do so.
2. Once you've added the printer successfully, run the latest HP installer, a download from the HP website. You should be able to skip the step where it asks you to add the printer, as you did this in step one.
3. Finally, since you didn't delete any files earlier, be sure to remove HP Director from your dock and from your Startup items (Login items in Tiger) by opening Mac System Prefs - Accounts - Startup/Login Items. HP Director has a memory leak. And it is superceded by the newer HP Device Manager when you download and run the latest HP installer. You should find the new HP Device Manager in your dock after step 2 (above).

Powerbook 17" Mac OS X (10.4.3)

At the end of a long weekend of work, I've finished setting up my psc 2510 on a new wireless network. I use Tiger on two of my machines and Panther on the others. So I've posted advice over in the Tiger support forum, and I'm going to post the same instructions over here. (Moderators: I thought about just posting a link here to my other post, but I want to make sure that the search engine picks up this posting if someone does a search here.)
I have four machines total, two of them running OS X 10.4, the others running 10.3.9.
1. Start by hooking the printer up to a wired (ethernet) network. Print out a network config page (setup, 6, 1) when the printer shows its blue "networked" light. Dial the printer's URL into your web browser and enter the new network's info into the printer's embedded web server. If you get everything right, when you turn off the printer, disconnect the ethernet cable, and turn on the printer, you'll get that blue "networked" light after a minute or so.
If you don't see the light, print out another config page and check the "Wireless Status": "Scanning" means that the printer's having trouble connecting to the network.

CONCURRENT MANAGER SETUP AND CONFIGURATION REQUIREMENTS IN AN 11I RAC ENVIR

제품 : AOL
작성날짜 : 2004-05-13
PURPOSE
RAC-PCP 구성에 대한 Setup 사항을 기술한 문서입니다.
PCP 구현은 CM의 workload 분산, Failover등을 목적으로 합니다.
Explanation
Failure sceniro 는 다음 3가지로 구분해 볼수 있습니다.
1. The database instance that supports the CP, Applications, and Middle-Tier
processes such as Forms, or iAS can fail.
2. The Database node server that supports the CP, Applications, and Middle-
Tier processes such as Forms, or iAS can fail.
3. The Applications/Middle-Tier server that supports the CP (and Applications)
base can fail.
아래부분은 CM,AP 구성과
CM과 GSM(Global Service Management)과의 관계를 설명하고 있습니다.
The concurrent processing tier can reside on either the Applications, Middle-
Tier, or Database Tier nodes. In a single tier configuration, non PCP
environment, a node failure will impact Concurrent Processing operations do to
any of these failure conditions. In a multi-node configuration the impact of
any these types of failures will be dependent upon what type of failure is
experienced, and how concurrent processing is distributed among the nodes in
the configuration. Parallel Concurrent Processing provides seamless failover
for a Concurrent Processing environment in the event that any of these types of
failures takes place.
In an Applications environment where the database tier utilizes Listener (
server) load balancing is implemented, and in a non-load balanced environment,
there are changes that must be made to the default configuration generated by
Autoconfig so that CP initialization, processing, and PCP functionality are
initiated properly on their respective/assigned nodes. These changes are
described in the next section - Concurrent Manager Setup and Configuration
Requirements in an 11i RAC Environment.
The current Concurrent Processing architecture with Global Service Management
consists of the following processes and communication model, where each process
is responsible for performing a specific set of routines and communicating with
parent and dependent processes.
아래 내용은 PCP환경에서 ICM, FNDSM, IM, Standard Manager의 역활을 설명하고
있습니다.
Internal Concurrent Manager (FNDLIBR process) - Communicates with the Service
Manager.
The Internal Concurrent Manager (ICM) starts, sets the number of active
processes, monitors, and terminates all other concurrent processes through
requests made to the Service Manager, including restarting any failed processes.
The ICM also starts and stops, and restarts the Service Manager for each node.
The ICM will perform process migration during an instance or node failure.
The ICM will be
active on a single node. This is also true in a PCP environment, where the ICM
will be active on at least one node at all times.
Service Manager (FNDSM process) - Communicates with the Internal Concurrent
Manager, Concurrent Manager, and non-Manager Service processes.
The Service Manager (SM) spawns, and terminates manager and service processes (
these could be Forms, or Apache Listeners, Metrics or Reports Server, and any
other process controlled through Generic Service Management). When the ICM
terminates the SM that
resides on the same node with the ICM will also terminate. The SM is ？hained?
to the ICM. The SM will only reinitialize after termination when there is a
function it needs to perform (start, or stop a process), so there may be
periods of time when the SM is not active, and this would be normal. All
processes initialized by the SM
inherit the same environment as the SM. The SM environment is set by APPSORA.
env file, and the gsmstart.sh script. The TWO_TASK used by the SM to connect
to a RAC instance must match the instance_name from GV$INSTANCE. The apps_<sid>
listener must be active on each CP node to support the SM connection to the
local instance. There
should be a Service Manager active on each node where a Concurrent or non-
Manager service process will reside.
Internal Monitor (FNDIMON process) - Communicates with the Internal Concurrent
Manager.
The Internal Monitor (IM) monitors the Internal Concurrent Manager, and
restarts any failed ICM on the local node. During a node failure in a PCP
environment the IM will restart the ICM on a surviving node (multiple ICM's may
be started on multiple nodes, but only the first ICM started will eventually
remain active, all others will gracefully terminate). There should be an
Internal Monitor defined on each node
where the ICM may migrate.
Standard Manager (FNDLIBR process) - Communicates with the Service Manager and
any client application process.
The Standard Manager is a worker process, that initiates, and executes client
requests on behalf of Applications batch, and OLTP clients.
Transaction Manager - Communicates with the Service Manager, and any user
process initiated on behalf of a Forms, or Standard Manager request. See Note:
240818.1 regarding Transaction Manager communication and setup requirements for
RAC.
Concurrent Manager Setup and Configuration Requirements in an 11i RAC
Environment
PCP를 사용하기위한 기본적인 Setup 절차를 설명하고 있습니다.
In order to set up Setup Parallel Concurrent Processing Using AutoConfig with
GSM,
follow the instructions in the 11.5.8 Oracle Applications System Administrators
Guide
under Implementing Parallel Concurrent Processing using the following steps:
1. Applications 11.5.8 and higher is configured to use GSM. Verify the
configuration on each node (see WebIV Note:165041.1).
2. On each cluster node edit the Applications Context file (<SID>.xml), that
resides in APPL_TOP/admin, to set the variable <APPLDCP oa_var="s_appldcp">
ON </APPLDCP>. It is normally set to OFF. This change should be performed
using the Context Editor.
3. Prior to regenerating the configuration, copy the existing tnsnames.ora,
listener.ora and sqlnet.ora files, where they exist, under the 8.0.6 and iAS
ORACLE_HOME locations on the each node to preserve the files (i.e./<some_
directory>/<SID>ora/$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/<SID>/tnsnames.ora). If any of
the Applications startup scripts that reside in COMMON_TOP/admin/scripts/<SID>
have been modified also copy these to preserve the files.
4. Regenerate the configuration by running adautocfg.sh on each cluster node as
outlined in Note:165195.1.
5. After regenerating the configuration merge any changes back into the
tnsnames.ora, listener.ora and sqlnet.ora files in the network directories,
and the startup scripts in the COMMON_TOP/admin/scripts/<SID> directory.
Each nodes tnsnames.ora file must contain the aliases that exist on all
other nodes in the cluster. When merging tnsnames.ora files ensure that each
node contains all other nodes tnsnames.ora entries. This includes tns
entries for any Applications tier nodes where a concurrent request could be
initiated, or request output to be viewed.
6. In the tnsnames.ora file of each Concurrent Processing node ensure that
there is an alias that matches the instance name from GV$INSTANCE of each
Oracle instance on each RAC node in the cluster. This is required in order
for the SM to establish connectivity to the local node during startup. The
entry for the local node will be the entry that is used for the TWO_TASK in
APPSORA.env (also in the APPS<SID>_<HOSTNAME>.env file referenced in the
Applications Listener [APPS_<SID>] listener.ora file entry "envs='MYAPPSORA=<
some directory>/APPS<SID>_<HOSTNAME>.env)
on each node in the cluster (this is modified in step 12).
7. Verify that the FNDSM_<SID> entry has been added to the listener.ora file
under the 8.0.6 ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/<SID> directory. See WebiV Note:
165041.1 for instructions regarding configuring this entry. NOTE: With the
implementation of GSM the 8.0.6 Applications, and 9.2.0 Database listeners
must be active on all PCP nodes in the cluster during normal operations.
8. AutoConfig will update the database profiles and reset them for the node
from which it was last run. If necessary reset the database profiles back to
their original settings.
9. Ensure that the Applications Listener is active on each node in the cluster
where Concurrent, or Service processes will execute. On each node start the
database and Forms Server processes as required by the configuration that
has been implemented.
10. Navigate to Install > Nodes and ensure that each node is registered. Use
the node name as it appears when executing a nodename?from the Unix prompt on
the server. GSM will add the appropriate services for each node at startup.
11. Navigate to Concurrent > Manager > Define, and set up the primary and
secondary node names for all the concurrent managers according to the
desired configuration for each node workload. The Internal Concurrent
Manager should be defined on the primary PCP node only. When defining the
Internal Monitor for the secondary (target) node(s), make the primary node (
local node) assignment, and assign a secondary node designation to the
Internal Monitor, also assign a standard work shift with one process.
12. Prior to starting the Manager processes it is necessary to edit the APPSORA.
env file on each node in order to specify a TWO_TASK entry that contains
the INSTANCE_NAME parameter for the local nodes Oracle instance, in order
to bind each Manager to the local instance. This should be done regardless
of whether Listener load balancing is configured, as it will ensure the
configuration conforms to the required standards of having the TWO_TASK set
to the instance name of each node as specified in GV$INSTANCE. Start the
Concurrent Processes on their primary node(s). This is the environment
that the Service Manager passes on to each process that it initializes on
behalf of the Internal Concurrent Manager. Also make the same update to
the file referenced by the Applications Listener APPS_<SID> in the
listener.ora entry "envs='MYAPPSORA= <some directory>/APPS<SID>_<HOSTNAME>.
env" on each node.
13. Navigate to Concurrent > Manager > Administer and verify that the Service
Manager and Internal Monitor are activated on the secondary node, and any
other addititional nodes in the cluster. The Internal Monitor should not be
active on the primary cluster node.
14. Stop and restart the Concurrent Manager processes on their primary node(s),
and verify that the managers are starting on their appropriate nodes. On
the target (secondary) node in addition to any defined managers you will
see an FNDSM process (the Service Manager), along with the FNDIMON process (
Internal Monitor).

What is your database version? OS?
We are using VCP suite for Planning Purpose. We are using VCP environment (12.1.3) in Decentralized structure connecting to 3 differect source environment ( consisting 11i and R12). As per the Oracle Note {RAC Configuration Setup For Running MRP Planning, APS Planning, and Data Collection Processes [ID 279156]} we have implemented RAC in our test environment to get better performance.
But after doing all the setups and concurrent programs assignment to different nodes, we are seeing huge performance issue. The Complete Collection which takes generally on an avg 180 mins in Production, is taking more than 6 hours to complete in RAC.
So I would like to get suggestion from this forum, if anyone has implemented RAC in pure VCP (decentralized) environment ? Will there be any improvement if we make our VCP Instance in RAC ?Do you PCP enabled? Can you reproduce the issue when you stop the CM?
Have you reviewed these docs?

Cisco Network Setup Assistant with WIndows8

Hi, I'm trying to provisioning on Windows 8(Surface pro)
When the Cisco Network setup Assistant is on, it asks 'network password' while the ssid is wpa2-enterprise.
and I configured as it is on NSP.
Is it a bug ??

Hi,
What version of ise are you on, also what is the windows native supplicant provisioning version? See if the release notes for 1.2 meet your current design.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/ise/1.2/release_notes/ise12_rn.html#wp378491
Thanks,
