New setup questions...

Hey Guys,
I'm moving to a new condo on 9/1 and getting Fios (switching from cable) for the first time. In the proverbial nutshell, what I want to do is this: run two HD TiVos (with cablecards), plus my Apple Time Capsule as my primary router. I don't care a bit about VOD or Verizon's channel guides, email, or any other silly thing they provide. An ISP is (or ought to be) just a 'dumb pipe'.
Having done some research online today, it seems as though I need to have my ONT set up to run Ethernet, not MOCA (coax). Is there anything else I've missed that I need to know?
Thanks! Any suggestions greatly appreciated... :-)
Regards,
Ken

You would want to have a CAT5 Cable run from the location where the ONT will be to where your Apple Router will be locatated.
Allow the FIOS Technician to install their Router and get everything up and running. Since you are not planning on using the Verizon Router the location should not mater. I would just have a CAT5 Patch cable available and ask them to use it to make the data conenction from the ONT to the Verizon Router.
Once the technician is done you can release the TCP/IP Address from teh Verizon Router, Power Down, Swap in your Router, and hopefully be all setup. Here is a FAQ with more information on using different routers:

1x 1TB
They are all part of the same vg:

I now have a new mainboard and a SATA controller card (PCI-E 1x) coming, with two new 2TB drives. Also a cheap small SSD on the way for the OS.
What I want to do: Migrate all data to a new RAID5 array consisting of 4x 2TB drives.
Is this possible without losing any data?
Thanks!

Shameless self-reply-bump;
I now have the new parts except the controller. When I get that I'm going to set up the new system, trying to migrate away all data off one 2TB drive so I can pull it out of the lvm volume group.
Then I can create a new RAID5 array with 2 new and 1 old 2TB drives and start moving the data to that one. When that's done, I'll move the other 2TB drive that was in the volume group, to the RAID5 array. That way I should end up with 4 2TB HDDs in RAID5.
I need to do some research first on what stripe size to use, filesystem, etc, as well as if it's best to have the HDDs on the controller (PCI-E 1x) or on the onboard SATA controller (which should be faster since it's not bottlenecked by the PCI-E 1x bus).
Thanks
Edit: New system installed, data migration ongoing. Managed to borrow a 2TB drive off a friend, migrated data to that so I could take one old 2TB out of the lvm, thus giving me 3 unused 2TB HDDs, on which I created a RAID5 array. Currently migrating data to it while it's initializing the parity etc...

sata_mv: Highpoint RocketRAID BIOS CORRUPTS DATA on all attached drives, regardless of if/how they are configured. BEWARE!
sata_mv: For data safety, do not use sectors 8-9 on "Legacy" drives, and avoid the final two gigabytes on all RocketRAID BIOS initialized drives.
That was the culprit! I shrunk the device usage per partition like so:
Avail Dev Size : 3907025072 (1863.01 GiB 2000.40 GB)
Array Size : 11702108160 (5580.00 GiB 5991.48 GB)
Used Dev Size : 3900702720 (1860.00 GiB 1997.16 GB)
So it's using 1860 out of 1863 or so GB per partition, that way I should be safe corruption wise. It would be best to shrink the actual partitions (sd[b,c,d,g]1), but I don't know how to do that without messing everything up.

I am being prompted to enter security questions when making a purchase on my new IPad. I don't believe I have ever setup security questions on my apple id. I have tried logging into my apple id and have chosen the security and priviacy settings to set up security questions. However I am prompted to enter answers to security questions and am told they don't match. How to I create new security questions or reset them?

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, clicking here and picking a method for your country, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

We are currently in the process of migrating out vmware infrastructure from HP to UCS. We are utilizing the Virtual Connect Adapters for the project. With the migration we also plan on implementing the cisco nexus v1000 in our environment. I have demo equipment setup and have had a chance to install a test environment, but still have a few design questions.
When implementing the new setup, what is a good base setup for the virtual connect adapters with the v1000? How many Nics should I dedicate? Right now I run 6 nics per server (2 console, 2 Virtual Machines, and 2 Vmotion). Is this a setup I should continue with going forward? The only other thing I am looking to implement is another set of nics for nfs access. In a previous setup at a different job, we had 10 nics per server (2 console, 4 virtual machines, 2 vmotion and 2 iSCSI). Is there any kind of standard for this setup?
The reason I am asking is I want to get the most out of my vmware environment as we will be looking to migrate Tier 1 app servers once we get everything up and running.
Thanks for the help!

Tim,
Migrating from HP Virtual Connect (VC) -> UCS might change your network design slightly, for the better of course . Not sure if you're using 1G or 10G VC modules but I'll respond as if you've using 10G modules because this is what UCS will provide. VC modules provide a 10G interface that you can logically chop up into a max of 4 host vNIC interfaces totaling 10G. Though it's handy to divide a single 10G interfaces into virtual NICs for Service Console, VMotion, iSCSI etc, this creates the opportunity for wasted bandwidth. The logical NICs VC creates provides a max limit of bandwidth to the adapter. For example if create a 2GB interface for your host to use for vMotion, then 2G of your 10G pipe is wastes when there's no vMotions taking place!
UCS & 1000v offer a different solution in terms of bandwidth utilization by means of QoS. We feel it's more appropriate to specifiy a "minimum" bandwidth guarantee rather than a hard upper limit - leading to wasted pipe. Depending on which UCS blade and mezz card option you have, the # of adapters you can present to the Host varies. B200 blades can support one mezz card (with 2 x 10G interfaces) while the B250 and B440 are full width blades and support 2 Mezz cards. In terms of Mezz cards now, there's the Intel/Emulex/Qlogic/Broamcom/Cisco VIC options. In my opinion the M81KR (VIC) is best suited for virtualized environments as you can present up to 56 virtual interfaces to the host, each having various levels of QoS applied. When you roll the 1000v into the mix you have a lethal combination of adding some of the new QoS features that automatically match traffic types such as Service Console, iSCSI, VMotion etc. See this thread for a list/explanation of new features coming in the next verison of 1000v due out in a couple weeks https://www.myciscocommunity.com/message/61580#61580
Before you think about design too much, tell us what blades & adapters you're using and we can offer some suggestions for setting them up in the best configuration for your virtual infrastructure.
Regards,
Robert
BTW - Here's a couple Best Practice Guides with UCS & 1000v that you might find useful.

New setup.exe for Adobe Acrobat 8.0 Pro

Per http://www.adobe.com/go/kb403246, there's a new setup.exe to let you install "all" updates to AAPro8.0 at initial install time.
Does this also include installing the Security Update 1 for 8.1.2, or, does that still have to be done separately?
Thanks.

Yes on both accounts. We're running Sophos and I've shut down the process that auto-starts and runs it in the background. The user herself is an administrator and I've tried both on her account and the root workstation administrator with no success.

New Guy Question about Name Changes from Logical to Relational

Sorry for the "New Guy" question. I am trying to do this the way I wished it worked rather than the way it does.
Lets say I have an Entity named "Current Database" with an Attribute named "Current Database Name". All this is in plan english for the Logical Model. Now when I generate the Relational Model I would like the Table named "CDCD_CURRENT_DB" and the column named "CURRENT_DB_NAME".
I have been working with a Glossary and some other features trying to get this to work. It kind of does but I do not fully get it and I think I am missing out on much of the power of the product. I have been forcing the Nickname "CDCD" (As we call it) and the "Database" to "DB" in the "Preferred Abbreviation" of the Entity.
I am working with v3.3.0.734
Thanks for the help.

Hi Sky13,
it can be done with glossary but it looks to me what you want is not that native to glossary approach.
it's good to look here for basics http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/datamodeler/datamodelernamingstandards-167685.pdf
Example here also could be useful if you want to go with glossary - Re: Data Modeler: Naming
If you want to use preferred abbreviation then it should be CDCD_CURRENT_DB.
For me CDCD_ is just a prefix - you can handle it separately in relational model - on whole model, on subview and in both cases classification types also can be used to determine how objects are prefixed.
You don't want Current to be abbreviated then do not put it in glossary however you need to check "Incomplete modifiers" check box in glossary.
Entity property "Short name" goes to table abbreviation during engineering. There is a transformation script which will prefix table columns with table abbreviation if you need it. And another one can remove the prefix.
You can define plural name in glossary and if entity name is a single word then plural will be used during name translation.

How do I get new security questions if I dont have a rescue email

how do I get new security questions if I dont have a rescue email

Hello marquart33,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with your security questions. I found an article with some useful information if you cannot remember the answers to your security questions:
What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers.
If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password
contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.

HT1766 After restoring my iphone 4 to factory settings, then restoring from a recent backup, my phone will reboot but keeps coming back to the "new setup or restore from backup screen". How can I by-pass this screen to go directly to the sync apps/music s

After restoring my iphone 4 to factory settings, then restoring from a recent backup, my phone will reboot but keeps coming back to the "new setup or restore from backup screen". How can I by-pass this screen to go directly to the sync apps/music screen?

Well, it's certainly behaving as though the phone that was backed up was synced to a different iTunes library.
I'm going to throw one more thing out there... Yes, you backed it up to this computer... Was the phone previously set up to sync with this computer? Or was it syncing with a different computer and you just backed it up to this one?
You may have to end up setting it up as a new device and rebuilding the phone by manually re-syncing your data, apps, music, etc. to the phone.
Trying to keep your library on a different drive can be tricky. If iTunes starts up and the library isn't available, it may end up generating a new library ID, meaning that you could easily find yourself in exactly the position you're in now...
I'm curious why there was a need to restore your phone to begin with... It may not have any bearing on this at all, but it could.

LoginModule with JAAS, setup question for Frank Nimphius

Hi Frank,
i am trying to use a custom LoginModule in conjuction with the setup procedure in your "J2EE Security in Oracle ADF Web Applications" white paper. Have you done this before? can you provide roadmap for additional/alternate setup steps needed to use a LoginModule?
this is my original post from early this week:
JAAS Setup question
thanks,
brenden

Brenden,
please refer to the OC4J security documentation which si a part of the Oracle Application Server documentation that can be looked up online here on OTN. Custom LoginModule configurations require OC4J 9.0.4. In addition, this feature also only works with the jazn-data.xml provider and not with OID.
From the perspective of this whitepaper, the LoginModule will be used by the OC4J container to authenticate users and thus should not require any change in teh paper.
I haven't yet had the time created an example and document that showcases how to do this. Hopefully christmas will give me some rest to look into this.

When I enter my password to purchase a song, I need to create new security questions. Whenever I finish making thm and submit them, a box says "An error has occurred. We could not save your changes." How do I make it go away?

When I enter my password to purchase a song, I need to create new security questions. When I finish writing them out and I hit submit, a box comes up with the words: "An error has occurred. We could not save your changes." What does that mean and how do I make it go away?

Potentially the issue may be the combination of actual distance and the presence of any Wi-Fi interference at the location of the AirPort Express that may be the culprit here. The bottom line is you would want the Express to be within a 25+ dB range of the Extreme to be sure that it can consistently stay connected to it.
For more details on proper base station placement, check out the following AirPort User tip. Please post back your results.

If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then see if this user tip helps you get the questions reset :https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551
e.g. you can try contacting iTunes Support :http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Account Management , and then try Apple ID Account Security
or try ringing the number for Apple in your country and ask to talk to the Account Security Team : http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

Can't choose new security questions?

When I upgraded to iOS6, I got the message to create three new security questions to improve Apple ID Security. I can't download any new apps now because of this message. However, when I click on Continue to set them, it asks for my password then takes me to a browser page with three items: Choose Question and Answer for each. You can't choose a question as there is no link to do so. You can only enter an answer and when I enter three answers and choose submit, I get a session timed out response. Three times.
I haven't been able to fine anywere online to enter these questions either. On my account, there is still just one security queston and no option to add others. Anyone found a solution to this yet?
Thanks

This is FRUSTRATING me on iPad.
As fast as can input answers to Security Question it always times me out.
Cannot download apps.
Saving me money but not happy.
This happened straight after downloading iOS6.
