New user, completely lost with a G5 xserve system

Hello,
I'm used to working on Dell, HP, Cisco, etc...not so much these Apple servers.  So, I received a few and wanted to get them tested and wiped.  I had to remove the hard drives as the server refused to boot off of a disk wiping utility I have.  I put them into another server and checked and cleared them, completely removing the OS.  After this I attempted to get into some sort of BIOS or configuration utility.  I couldn't find one, but a nice blinking folder icon popped up.  I did some research to see if I could find anything regarding any sort of BIOS or a way to make the CD boot automatically but all I could find was to press some sort of button in the front before turning on the power.  I did this, got the blinking blue light for a CD boot and I'm getting nothing but a fun blinking yellow light on the back.  Since I have no way to diagnose this system(unlike a Dell or HP based machine which have utilities to check these things) and no way to know what the specs are other than the pull out tab...which is already wrong because the hard drives and memory are different than what is listed.  So, I'd like to see how to even get anything to display other than a white screen on these things.  I've looked for how to get into a BIOS but apparently there isn't one and I cannot seem to find how to get into this EFI field that is supposedly there but has not presented itself.  Any help anyone?  I seriously just want to see if these things work beyond a white screen.  I was under the assumption Apple products are supposed to be as easy as it can get.  If this is more difficult to set up then a normal server of any other brand, I fail to see how that makes things any easier.  Sorry for the sarcasm, but I've been messing with these for a few days and nothing has resulted from it.

Oh and I've pressed the optical media boot combination and tried the keyboard as well...nothing.  I haven't actually been able to get any of them to boot from the optical drive, so I know that I'm the one who is doing something wrong and it's not the servers.

  • Creating new user having same access as that of SYSTEM user.

    Hi, is it possible in oracle to create a new user having same access as that of SYSTEM user?
    If yes what would be syntax?
    If not i would like to create a user having most of admin rights likes exporting and importing schemas and all.
    How it can be done?
    Any help would be appreciated.. :)

  • Creating new user having same access as that of SYSTEM user in Express Edit

  • Completely Lost with my Ipod

    While listening to my ipod (ipod 5th gen video) a few days ago, it suddenly froze on me. Well, being used to this (my ipod mini would do this quite often), I did what I had become accustomed to, and let the battery die out.
    After recharging however, instead of being back to normal, my ipod was switching back and forth between the apple logo and an ipod with a dead face on it, as well as the address of the apple support website.
    I've been looking over the posts for the past couple of days and I have yet to find anything, so I was simply wondering if my Ipod is broken for good, or if there is someway I can restore it to its former glory.
    Oh also, I tried to restore it on my computer, but it won't recognize it.
    Thanks,
    AGP

    If a sad iPod icon or an exclamation point and folder icon appears on your iPod’s screen, or with sounds of clicking or HD whirring, it is usually the sign of a hard drive problem and you have the power to do something about it now. Your silver bullet of resolving your iPod issue – is to restore your iPod to factory settings.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=60983
    If you're having trouble, try these steps at different levels one at a time until the issue is resolved. These steps will often whip your iPod back into shape.
    Make sure you do all the following “TRYs”
    A. Try to wait 30 minutes while iPod is charging.
    B. Try another FireWire or USB through Dock Connector cable.
    C. Try another FireWire or USB port on your computer .
    D. Try to disconnect all devices from your computer's FireWire and USB ports.
    E. Try to download and install the latest version of iPod software and iTunes
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    For old and other versions of iPod updater for window you can get here
    http://www.ipodwizard.net/showthread.php?t=7369
    F. Try these five steps (known as the five Rs) and it would conquer most iPod issues.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/
    G. Try to put the iPod into Disk Mode if it fails to appear on the desktop
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93651
    If none of these steps address the issue, you may need to go to Intermediate level listed below in logical order. Check from the top of the lists to see if that is what keeping iPod from appearing on your computer in order for doing the Restore.
    Intermediate Level
    A. Try to connect your iPod with another computer with the iPod updater pre-installed.
    B. Still can’t see your iPod, put it in Disk Mode and connect with a computer, instead of doing a Restore on iPod Updater. Go and format the iPod instead.
    For Mac computer
    1. Open the disk utility, hope your iPod appears there (left hand side), highlight it
    2. Go to Tab “Partition”, click either “Delete” or “Partition”, if fails, skip this step and go to 3
    3. Go to Tab “Erase” , choose Volume Format as “MAC OS Extended (Journaled), and click Erase, again if fails, skip it and go to 4
    4. Same as step 3, but open the “Security Options....” and choose “Zero Out Data” before click Erase. It will take 1 to 2 hours to complete.
    5. Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    6. Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    For Window computer
    Go to folder “My Computer”
    Hope you can see your iPod there and right click on the iPod
    Choose “Format”. Ensure the settings are at “Default” and that “Quick Format” is not checked
    Now select “Format”
    Eject your iPod and do a Reset
    Open the iTunes 7 and click “Restore”
    In case you do not manage to do a “Format” on a window computer, try to use some 3rd party disk utility software, e.g.“HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool”.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=501330&tstart=0
    C. Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    Tips
    a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
    b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
    c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

    If you have tried trouble shooting your iPod to no avail after all the steps above, chances are your iPod has a hardware problem. The iPod's built-in Diagnostic Mode is a quick and easy way to determine if you have a "bad" iPod.
    You need to restart your iPod before putting it into Diagnostic Mode. Check that your hold switch is off by sliding the switch away from the headphone jack. Toggle it on and off to be safe.
    Press and hold the following combination of buttons simultaneously for approximately 10 seconds to reset the iPod.
    iPod 1G to 3G: "Menu" and "Play/Pause"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Menu" and "Select"
    The Apple logo will appear and you should feel the hard drive spinning up. Press and hold the following sequence of buttons:
    iPod 1G to 3G: "REW", "FFW" and "Select"
    iPod 4G+ (includes Photo, Nano, Video, and Mini): "Back" and "Select"
    You will hear an audible chirp sound (3G models and higher) and the Apple logo should appear backwards. You are now in Diagnostic Mode. Navigate the list of tests using "REW" and "FFW". The scroll wheel will not function while in diagnostic mode. For further details on Diagnostic mode can be found at http://www.methodshop.com/mp3/ipodsupport/diagnosticmode/
    Try to do the 5in1, HDD R/W and HDD scan tests. Some successful cases have been reported after the running the few tests under the Diagnostic mode. In case it does not work in your case, and the scan tests reports show some errors then it proves your iPod has a hardware problem and it needs a repairing service.
    B. Format your iPod with a start disk
    I have not tried this solution myself, I heard that there were few successful cases that the users managed to get their iPod (you must put your iPod in disk mode before connecting with a computer) mounted by the computer, which was booted by a system startup disk. For Mac, you can use the Disk Utility (on the Tiger OS system disk), for PC user, you can use the window OS system disk. Try to find a way to reformat your iPod, again it does not matter which format (FAT32, NTFS or HFS+) you choose, the key is to erase the corrupted system files on the iPod. Then eject your iPod and do a Reset to switch out from Disk Mode. Reboot your computer at the normal way, connect your iPod back with it, open the iPod updater, and hopefully your iPod will appear there for the Restore.
    If none of these steps address the issue, your iPod may need to be repaired.
    Consider setting up a mail-in repair for your iPod http://depot.info.apple.com/ipod/
    Or visit your local Apple Retail Store http://www.apple.com/retail/
    In case your iPod is no longer covered by the warranty and you want to find a second repairing company, you can try iPodResQ or ifixit at your own risk

    http://www.ifixit.com/
    http://www.rapidrepair.com/shop/g4-ipod-parts.html
    Just in case that you are at the following situation
    Your iPod warranty is expired
    You don’t want to pay any service charges
    You are prepared to buy a new one
    You can’t accept the re-sell value of your broken iPod
    Rather than leave your iPod as paper-weight or throw it away.
    You can try the following, but again, only do it as your last resort and at your own risk.
    Warning !!!! – It may or may not manage to solve your problem, and with a risk that you may further damage your iPod, which end up as an expensive paper weight or you need to pay more higher repairing cost. Therefore, please re-consider again whether you want to try the next level
    Last Resort Level
    1. . Disconnecting the Hard Drive and battery inside the iPod – Warning !! Your iPod warranty will be waived once you open the iPod.
    In Hong Kong there are some electronic shops offering an iPod service for Sad iPod, the first thing they do is to open up the iPod’s case and disconnecting the battery and the Hard Drive from the main board of the iPod. Wait for 5-10 minutes and reconnecting them back. The reason behind which I can think of is to do a fully reset of a processor of the iPod. In case you want do it itself and you believe that you are good on fixing the electronics devices and have experience to deal with small bits of electronic parts, then you can read the following of how to open the iPod case for battery and HDD replacement (with Quicktimes)

    2.Press the reset button on the Hard Drive inside the iPod – Suggestion from Kill8joy
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2438774#2438774
    Have I tried these myself? No, I am afraid to do it myself as I am squeamish about tinkering inside electronic devices, I have few experiences that either I broke the parts (which are normally tiny or fragile) or failed to put the parts back to the main case. Therefore, I agree with suggestion to have it fixed by a Pro.

    I am not suggesting that you should follow as well, but just read them as your reference. You are the person to make the call.
    Finally, I read a fair comments from dwb, regarding of slapping the back of the iPod multiple times
    Quote “This has been discussed numerous times as a 'fix'. It does work, at least for a while. In fact I remember using the same basic trick to revive Seagate and Quantam drives back in the mid to late 1980's. Why these tiny hard drives go bad I don't know - could be the actuator gets stuck in place or misaligned. Could be the platter gets stuck or the motor gets stuck. 'Stiction' was a problem for drives back in the 80's. Unfortunately the fix can cause damage to the platter so we temporarily fix one problem by creating another. But I know of two instances where a little slap onto the table revived the iPods and they are still worked a year or more later.”UnQuote

  • Completely lost with auditing

    Hello everyone,
    I am completely lost on the subject of auditing. I have been googling and reading my complete reference to oracle book and still don't understand it very well.
    When i try to select from user_audit_tables, and any other tables like that, it just says "no rows selected".
    Is it because i haven't turned auditing on or something?
    I am doing a university assignment where we have to use auditing to monitor activity in certain accounts.
    Could someone really briefly explain the concept of auditing?
    Thanks a lot!
    Gary.

    Hi Gary,
    Setting audit_trail=DB or audit_trail=true are both same. Audit_trail=true is for backward compatability. But either of this will turn on auditing, that means you are now able to set/define for the levels you want. So after setting this parameter in your init.ora file, first step is to bounce(restart) your database. Query the database and make sure that it has taken effect by typing the following from your sql prompt:
    sql> show parameter aud;
    This will list all parameters for auditing, check the value for audit_trail parameter and make sure that the value you mentioned in the init.ora file is displayed.
    The next step would be set auditing as per your requirement. For example, if you want to audit connections(successful/unsuccessful), you can type from sql,
    sql> audit connect;
    For ddls related to table,
    sql> audit table;
    For dmls related to table,
    sql> audit insert,update,delete on scott.emp;
    and so on...
    Once you set the auditing as above, then the database will start tracking the actions you have requested for and ONLY THEN, you will see records populating on aud$ and other audit related tables/views:
    Click on the following link to access the documentation for audit:
    http://tahiti.oracle.com/pls/db92/db92.drilldown?levelnum=2&toplevel=a96540&method=FULL&chapters=0&book=&wildcards=1&preference=&expand_all=&verb=&word=audit#a96540
    Hope this helps. Good Luck with your assignment.

  • New User, Mackie 800R with Logic Pro 7

    I'm a new user of Logic 7. I'm trying to figure out how to sync logic to The Mackie Onyx 800R.
    My set up is a Digi 003 Rack with the Mackie connected via optical (lightpipe). In Pro-tools I can go to set up and select optical as my clock. In the logic manual I don't see anything that even mentions optical inputs or how to use another device as the clock. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!!

    Thanks very much for the reply. I don't think Core Audio can select the Mackie as the clock source.
    In Pro-tools there is a menu which can selct internal clock or external. Within the external choices there is the option of selecting Adat optical as the external clock. I'm not finding anything like that in Logic. I see ways to sync to MTC or sympte but not this. Any others with thoughts on this or advice, I'd be very grateful. Thanks!

  • New user: Need help with my phone. iSync on a G3 with OSX 10.3.9

    Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum, so take it easy on me. LOL I just got a Sony Ericsson W810. I found out that I need to get iSync. Aparently iSync 2.2 is the program I need. Is this available for my version of OSX? I'm not sure if a new version of OSX is compatible with my G3. Any help? Much appreciated. Thanks.

    Welcome to Apple Discusssion.
    iSync 1.5 is the version which shipped with and works with Mac OS X releases prior to 10.4 - iSync 2 and later packages are not compatible with Mac OS X 10.3.9 or any release of the OS. With Mac OS X 10.4 and iSync 2, came a completely new synchronization technology: the Sync Services framework.
    You can find out what, if any, options exist for SONY Ericsson users here, at Julian Wright's excellent site:

    I have a new Curve.  I use Comcast mail (POP3).  I have installed Desktop Manager on my PC.  I am not using an Enterprise server, nor an Exchange server.  I would like to be able to receive, read, and delete using either device and have any changes reflected in the other.

  • New User: Needs Help with getting started with the Z

    Hi, my son got a creative Zen for xmas, only getting round to getting it together now, and having some problems with the manual. All this is new to us -technology etc. We have managed to rip a CD but cant get any further! Downloading from internet sounds like such a good idea, but 'know-how-to do' seems light years away in this house! Is there an easy start manual or step by step directions that I've missed out on somewhere? the quick start manual is fine for learning how to use the player but doesn't give any info on ripping CDs and whatever comes after. Can any of you 'experts' bring yourselves back to the begining and explain what to do in simple english?
    Message Edited by Jeremy-CL on 02-0-2005 0:25 AM

    Mother,
    I moved and edited your message as your are more likely to get help out here. As far as suggestions go for downloading from the internet goes, there is not a lot of difference between getting it from CDs. The main difference is the process of actually getting the music.
    First off there are several music stores out there and some that are free. Here are a few suggestions (this is all personal knowledge, this is not an official endorsement of any of these):
    Napster - Integrates into Windows Media Player if you desire and can transfer directly to most Zens. Also allows a user to subscribe to an account that allows for streaming and computer only downloads of music (must purchase song to transfer to the player...usually around .99 a song)
    Buymusic.com - Website interface that sells individual tracks and albums.
    Wallmart music store - Website interface that sells individual tracks and albums.
    There are others but these three are the mains ones (outside of itunes, which is designed for the Ipod).
    Basically once you download them, you go into MediaSource or Windows Media Player and add the files to the music library. Then you just transfer like you do with CDs.

  • New user needs help with time machine and mac server.

    I am a new mac user and got a new mac mini running server.  I have time machine enabled on the server and a back up folder created.  My macbook will not see the server when trying to set up time machine from the macbook.  What am I missing?  Thanks.

    Unfortunately even though Apple had touted the AEBS USB2 HD use with TimeMachine (TM) they pulled it from the Leopard TM feature list about 1 week before releasing Leopard GNBuild 9A581.
    At this time Apple does not support use of the AEBS USB HD for use TM.
    I strongly suspect we will see this feature return in one of the next two updates Apple releases for Leopard.
    In the meantime be patient and I don't recommend you use a hack to circumvent the current TM limitation.

  • New User needs help with Bluetooth

    Call the experienced ones out there. I'm the proud owner of a new 3GS Iphone, which I'm unable to pair with anything. I walk through the electronics store and it finds lots of devices to pair with. However it willnot find my PC (IBM Thinkpad) or my cars built in Bluetooth (Mercedes Ml500). Have tried all I know including power off through to complete reload of all software, now pulling whats left of my hair out......Take pity if there is a magic fix and share the love....Thanks Gary

    Bluetooth in the iPhone 3GS is very limited compared to most other Bluetooth enabled phones.
    It can only be used for the following:
    1) Internet tethering (connecting your computer to the internet via the iPhone's internet connection, but only if your network provider allows it)
    2) Peer to peer games between other iPhone and iPod touch devices
    3) Connecting to Bluetooth headsets and compatible Bluetooth stereo systems.
    You will not be able to use Bluetooth for file transfers, sending contact info, syncing music, pictures or anything like that.

  • New user needs help with Email account questions

    Good day - I have been a 10-year user of Blackberrys (Curve, Bold, and earlier models). Just received a new Q10 for work. Enterprise Outlook synched up and I am getting all emails, calendar, and contact information as in the past. All good with this. Here are my questions I cannot find answers to anywhere:
    1) How can I insert a "signature" with emails I compose from Q10?
    2) How can I delete all emails on Q10, rather than one at a time?
    3) How do I set the Q10 to only delete from phone and not network. In other words I only want to delete emails from the Q10 device and not my PC.
    Appreciate any help. Thank you,
    Chris

    #3 is even easier
    Go to Hub settings, then display and actions and drag down, you'll see the option 'delete'.
    Regards.

  • What happens to a new user of iOS8 with one Apple ID?

    I have one Apple ID that my wife and I use. I updated both iPone 5s' and her iPad Air. All of a sudden incoming calls started ringing on both phones whether they were calling me or her and the iPad  was showing an incoming FaceTime call. iMessages began showing up on both phones and the iPad. I went to the Genius Bar for help with the phones, iPad, and my MacBook Pro for help. I knew the problem was in the settings somewhere. They showed me that I needed to set the Messages and Facetime settings the way I wanted these services to work. They found the phone numbers were not set up correctly and fixed that. Last evening my wife and I decided to check if everything was working as expected. We used our home phone to call each number and still had the same issue!!!! All the devices were ringing at the same time again. I went into the Messages and FaceTime settings again and unselected our Me, Mac, and iCloud  addresses leaving the phone numbers as the only active service. IT WORKED!!!
    Have any of you who have one Apple ID had to deal with any other frustrating issue?

    Hello de.donna2, I personally have not but my family all share the same account and trust me it is frustrating. So what I would advise doing is creating another account and then link it up with the new family share setting. Here you will be able to download each others apps and see what the other is doing.

  • New user needs help with HD choices

    I just found this forum and it looks like something I am going to enjoy.  I have Premiere Pro CS 5.0 and use it to process AVCHD video.  My hardware is made up of Asus P9X79 Pro, i7 3930k, 16 GB memory, and GTX 470 vid card.  I also have an SSD as my main boot drive - it is an OCZ Revodrive.
    I would like help in setting up my hard drives for the Adobe software, so have listed my storage drives along with current usage and ATTO benchmark results:
    Drive 0 - Revodrive - ATTO = 800 - Used for Win 7 -64 Pro and Adobe software
    Drive 1 - WD Black 2TB - ATTO = 140 - Used for MTS file storage
    Drive 2 - WD Black 2TB - ATTO = 140 - Used for Scratch Files
    Drive 3 - Samsung 1TB - ATTO = 60 - Used for Finished files (Encore files and for saving MP4 files for web upload)
    Drive 4 - WD Black 1TB - ATTO = 120 - Used for backup
    Drive 5&6 - 2 each Hitachi 750GB in Raid - ATTO = 180 - Used for backup (Drives are attached to Marvel Raid port on Motherboard)
    I realize that drive #3 is the slowest drive and should probably be used for other things.  I am open to suggestions.

    Happy New Year and wecome to the forum!
    Sounds like a strong system, and it should be just fine for AVCHD video.
    Suggest:
    Boot / OS / programs - Revodrive is fine; you can also assign media cache and media cache DB (CS5 setting) to this drive
    Data drive - create a RAID 0 array from your current drives 1 and 2 - use this for projects and media, and pretty much whatever other data needs you have for your PC
    scratch / output drive - use for current matching 5 & 6 Hitachi's in RAID 0 for scratc and render outputs
    all others - use 3 & 4 for backups
    You should probably run PPBM5 and report the 4 "scores" to the PPBM5 site and also back here to get a reality check that everything is configured and working properly for your system.
