OS X Server 10.9 Blade server (data storage)

Guys,
anyone who knows about a blade data storage that can be used in a Mac mini server? this is to store all the home folder users/Software update/NetInstallBootImage ect...
Do you know any brand and what kind of setup to use (XSAN)?

What you appear to be referring to is the storage equivalent of 'blade servers'. In fact often such products mix both servers and storage.
See http://www.dell.com/us/business/p/equallogic-ps-m4110/pd?~ck=anav
The above product claims to be OS X compatible. It also appears to be from the fact that is refers to using iSCSI to be an Ethernet based solution. Therefore it would be connected to an Ethernet switch - possibly at 10Gbps, and so would your Mac(s). The Mac would however it would seem need to install some iSCSI software in order to link to it.
There are two main iSCSI Initiator packages for the Mac, the AttoTech Xtend SAN iSCSI Initiator, see - https://www.attotech.com/products/product.php?sku=INIT-MAC0-001
and the StudioNetworkSolutions Xtarget iSCSI software, see http://www.studionetworksolutions.com/globalsan-xtarget/
The later used to be better known as http://www.studionetworksolutions.com/globalsan-iscsi-initiator/
However XTarget uniquely incorporates Xsan compatibility with its iSCSI client. This means you can connect to the storage via iSCSI and ensure multiple Macs can connect and share the same iSCSI target. With the standard GlobalSAN client or it appears the Xtend SAN they are not Xsan compatible.

  • Non-server data storage

    A friend of mine is developing a database for a specific environment:
    A small number of peer-to-peer networked Windows computers in a small office, with no dedicated servers - each computer acting as an individual's workstation. They want a "central" database to store client information etc, with an interface they can all use at once to access and change the data.
    Given the nature of the environment, my first thought was that some sort of file-based data storage (not requiring a server process) would be most appropriate - Access, csv, XML....but I'm not intricately familiar with JDBC support for these mechanisms, so wasn't sure what to recommend specifically.
    They are not willing/able to spend any money on this solution, so it must use the current environment. Can someone recommend a data storage method and point me to an appropriate JDBC driver?
    Oh, and while I have your attention - anybody know of a good CSV parser? I'm currently splitting a line of data by commas, but it's also splitting strings with commas in them...

    based on this i have a non-Java solution to suggest.
    use MS-Access and IIS to develop and deploy an intranet.
    there are several pros to this solution that i see
    - You can develop and deploy an intranet using web browsers as clients very quickly and relatively cheaply
    - an intranet (series of web pages) vs. a full blown application may well be easier to make changes to
    - having the data in a RDBMS (Access) which will be cost effective in this case also will make it relatively simple to upgrade port the system later
    now i like programming in java as much as the next person but from your requirements it sounds like writing an application might be overkill. in my experience doing an intranet like this is a pretty good solution.. you don't have to install anything on the clients... you already have the software for the server (if you don't have IIS most versions of Windows now have PWS or Personal Web Server which will work for this)... the important thing is to have a good database design so that you can make changes or port the client easily later if you need to.

  • "Exception Processing Message" error when clicking the Accessing Server Data link on the start page

    When I first started the application, I click the Accessing Server Data link on the start page.  I immediately got the error "Exception Processing Message c0000013 Parameters 75b6bf7c 4 75b6bf7c 75b6bf7c in a dialog box titled "Windows - No Disk".  I had to used Task Manager to remove the box after closing Flash Builder 4.  I then tried the video tutorial on "PHP Services in Flash Builder 4".  I keep receiving an error during service introspection trying to connect to the PHP class.  It was the same error as the other individual "Cannot Connect to PHP Service".  So I tried another tutorial and generated a sample PHP class.  I moved a datagrid on to the stage, droped in the getAllItems function, and configured the return type.  However, when I ran the app, I received the same error "Exception Processing Message" again.  I have attached the screenshot of the error in addition to my phpinfo and log files.

    "The exception process message" is definitely a issue. Is it happening consistently, if so can you file a bug at bugs.adobe.com/flex and give out your machine config details, and the error log.
    With regards to generating a new php file and the introspection error that you are getting, looking at the logs it probably is two fold.
    First off the name of the file and the class name should be the same, are you having employeeServices as the name of the class in employeeServices.php file.
    Second, It seems prior to generating this new file, you had a syntax error at line 5.
    It would be easier to figure out what the error is, if you can also attach the php file, by removing any sensitive information in that.
    Hope this helps.

  • Please help with this issue "To Run a SSIS Package outside of Server Data Tools You must install Drived Column of Integration sercvies of higher" From C# app

     i have searched all over the google and here on MSDN(I have read all the threads related to my problem ) , i am new to SISS and doing my clg project ,
    I have this package which loads data from  dim tables to a fact table , my Package runs without any problem in BIDS (2012)
    I have installed SQl Server integration services on SQL and service is also running in services.msc,
    the problem comes when i execute my package using my C# application i am using MSDN Method to execute a SSIS package programmatically given here.
    "http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136090.aspx"
    For loading my FactTable i have used a Derived columns  and some lookups , 
    Now if i don't use derived columns and looks ups and just use source and destination component then my package runs fine from my C# application but if i use derived columns or looks ups etc it gives the following error
    "Error in Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.TaskHost/SSIS.Pipeline: To Run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must Install Derived Column of Integration services of higher"
    I am searching and trying to resolve this issue from previous 2 days but without any luck please help or guide me what is solution to this problem ,,i will be very thankful
    I have also found that integration services that are running on my system have version  10.0
    but the BIDS have version Version 11.0.3402.0
    IS this causing problem ?  if yes then what i have to do  ?

    Hi BlaxButt,
    The package is developed in SSDT installed by SQL Server 2012, so it is a SSIS 2012 package. However, the Integration Services you have installed is SQL Server 2008 R2 version. To run the package outside SSDT, you need SSIS 2012 installed. The reason why
    the package runs fine with only Source and Destination components is that such a simple package can be executed by the DTExec utility installed by SQL Server 2012 Data base Engine or Client Tools (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard). To run a package that
    uses other tasks/components outside SSDT/BIDS, the SSIS runtime is also required except the DTExec utility. To obtain the SSIS 2012 runtime, we have to install SSIS 2012 on the server where the package runs.

  • Dynamic action - Cache server data

    APEX 4.2.2
    Is there a way to cache server side data in a global (page/document level) Javascript vector (bunch of key-value pairs) (associative array, array of objects or some such)? This way the data can be used by subsequent dynamic actions' Javascript code without querying the server over and over.
    I see that apex_util.json_from_sql is still undocumented after all these years. Are there any examples of using that API to do this sort of thing? Can someone please share?
    Thanks

    https://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=57688:24
    I took a shot at this and it seems to work well using Javascript global objects for data storage. Hope this helps someone.
    1. Page attributes - Javascript global variables var gData,gLookup={};2. On-demand application process Get_Emps as apex_util.json_from_sql('select empno,ename from emp');3. Page Load dynamic action to invoke the application process and cache the data var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$v('pFlowId'),'APPLICATION_PROCESS=Get_Emps',$v('pFlowStepId'));
    var retval=get.get();get=null;
    gData=apex.jQuery.parseJSON(retval);
    $.each(gData.row,function(i,obj){
       gLookup[obj.EMPNO]=obj.ENAME;
    });4. EMPNO page item - Standard OnChange dynamic action to SetValue of ENAME page item using the cached data - Javascript expression gLookup[$v(this.triggeringElement)]
    We document something when it is ready to be supported. This specific procedure isn't something we haven't invested in, and thus, per our discretion, have elected not to document or support it at this time.Fair enough.

  • Insert data into oracle based on sql server data(here sql server acting as source to oracle and destination to oracle)

    Source is Oralce. Destination is SQL Server.
    Requirement - I have to fetch sql server server data (empid's) based emp table  and send this as input data to oracle to fetch and empid's are common.
    I cannot use merge or loopkup or for each as oracle have too many records.
    For example - In MS SQL - i have empid=1,2..Only these records, I have to fetch from oracle source into sql server destination. For this, I have adopted the below approaches...The major problem I face, when i build a empid's as a string, it is taking only
    4000 chars. My string lenght is 10000. How do I breakup this string lengh and send to data flow task till all broken strings length passed to DFT.
    Approach-1
    created two variables - oraquery string, empid string
    step1 - ms sql database - created sql task - declare @empid varchar(max)
    SELECT @empid=
    Stuff((SELECT ',' + empid
            FROM  
            (SELECT  DISTINCT  convert(varchar(10),empid ) empid FROM emp
             ) x
            For XML PATH ('')),1,1,'')
    select @empid =    '(' +  @empid + ')'
    select @empid
    resultset=singlerow
    resultset=resultname=0; variablename=User::empid (empid is declared as string)
    step2 - oracle database - created data flow task
    created oledb source
    I put  this statemnt in oraquery expression - "select * from dept where dept in  "
    +  @[User::empid] + "
    expression=true
    [OLE DB Source [1]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR.  An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14.
    An OLE DB record is available.  Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle"  Hresult: 0x80040E14  Description: "ORA-00936: missing expression".
    Approach-2
    created three variables - oraquery string, empid  int, loop object--when I put int then it is automatically setting to 0
    step1 - ms sql database - created sql task - SELECT  DISTINCT  convert(varchar(10),empid ) empid FROM emp
    resultset=fullresult
    resultset=resultname=0; variablename=User::loop
    step2 - created a for each loop container
    for loop editor - for each ado ennumerator
    enumerator configuration - loop
    variablemapping - variable=empid;index=0
    step3 - oracle database - created data flow task (outside for each loop. If I put inside it is taking long time)
    created oledb source
    I put  this statemnt in oraquery expression - "select * from dept where dept in  "
    +  @[User::empid] + "
    expression=true
    Data inserting in a destination table but  empid=0.

    Sorry didnt understand if your step3 is outside loop how
    @[User::empid] will get values for the empids from User::loop. The iteration happens inside loop so you
    need to have a logic to form the delimited list inside using a script task or something and concatenating everything and storing to variable @[User::empid]
    . Then only it will have full value used to be used in step3 query

  • Application Server Data Source settings help needed (10.1.2.0.2)

    Hi,
    Can someone tell me what maximum values can I set in the following properties under Connection Attributes when I define a DataSource on
    Application Server. I have almost 25+ web application deployed on my 10.1.2.0.2 server that all uses one data source I have defined. Now the issue is the number of requests
    are very high and every now and then I get timeout error when trying to get the database connection. At one particular instance at peak time I may get over 200+ requests that
    do some databse connections etc. Following are my current settings. But need to increase some more but wondering what are the maximum values I can have. I have only one server 10.1.2.0.2

    Cached Connection Inactivity Timeout (seconds) = 30
    Maximum Open Connections = 60
    Minimum Open Connections = 10

    What other properties can I have to make use of datasource effectively.

  • SSIS: To run a SSIS package outside of SQL Server Data Tools you must install SCR - DP1 Connections of Integration Services or higher

    We have SSIS installed on a machine that is not part of a cluster but it is accessible by the cluster.
    Our job we have running on the cluster is failing with the following error:
    Error: 2014-01-31 09:14:37.52     Code: 0xC000F427     Source: SCR - DP1 Connections

    Any advice or information on how to resolve this would be great.
    Many Thanks.

    Hi NessaBella,
    Integration Services service is not a cluster-aware service, and does not support failover from one cluster node to another. Therefore, in a clustered environment, Integration Services should be installed and started as a stand-alone service on each node
    in the cluster.
    Based on the error message, it seems that SSIS is not installed on the cluster node on which the job was running. Although SSIS is installed on a machine that is not part of the cluster and can be accessed by each cluster node, the SSIS service installed
    on a remote server cannot be used a cluster node. So, please install the shared feature SQL Server Integration Services on each cluster node. Besides, if certain packages need to run in 32-bit mode in certain jobs and the SQL Server installed is 64-bit version,
    you also need to install BIDS/SSDT on the cluster node to get the 32-bit runtime of SSIS.

    Have you reviewed the setup.log?
    On a side note, why would you put the database file on the same drive as the OS? That defeats the whole purpose of having a remote SQL Server. Why use a remote SQL Server in the first place.
