Pre-sales technical question for a HA MARS setup

My knowledge of MARS is very limited. I am considering buying two Cisco Security MARS 25 (CS-MARS-25-K9) units.
This is to allow each system to be installed in different data centers, same geographical location.
This will be in an active/standby configuration.
Is it correct that the license is cheaper for this type of setup ? Can anyone confirm this ?

Kenneth;
  CS-MARS does not have a concept of active/standby (high availability) operation - there is no data synchornization between the two units.  You can have two active CS-MARS with all reporting devices reporting to both.  However, when either/both of the two systems is unreachable it will not receive any events during that time and in turn not generate any incidents.  The 'standby' unit is used to restore archived data for 'offline' analysis.
  Each CS-MARS will require its own license key.
  You can reference the 'standby' operational process here:

  • Pre-sale MacBooks question.

    Hey - I know this Question is a Pre-sales question but there isn't a forum section for that - and apples contact us section haver replied after two days, so I'm posting here
    I'm looking at buying either the new MacBook Pro 13" or the MacBook Air, however I can't decide which one to go for, I went to London last week and had a session on the old Pro and Air,  it helped - but it only helped by making me sure I wanted one of them...
    I was wondering, would it be possible for me to purchase one MacBook and try it out for a few days, and then swap it and try the other?   
    Eg:
    Buy MacBook Air, use for two days, bring back, try out MacBook pro (and pay the extra amount)?
    Sorry if that sounds stupid, 
    Cheers,
    Tom.

    There is a restocking fee for open items. You might get away with the restocking fee if you do by another similar item

  • Pre-Sales Installation Questions on Adobe CS6

    I am thinking about getting Adobe Creative Suite Design Web Premium CS6 from the local campus bookstore so I can use it with the web certificate program I am taking. They have a boxed version which I will probably get. Less expensive than the digital download card version. I had some pre-sales question before I commit to buying it. The person I talked to on the phone was not able to answer a few questions about the software, must have been a newbie and unfortunately the only one in the department at the time.
    Since I will be purchasing the boxed version directly from the store, do I need to still e-mail some kind of student proof to Adobe or is a student e-mail sufficient? How does that work part of the installation work/what's involved? Is there a serial number in the box already or will it be sent by e-mail?
    Also, my Mac may be on it's last leg but it seems to be hanging in there. Can't afford to buy a new computer just yet. What happens if the hard drive experiences some kind of data failure. If I need to reinstall on a new computer or replacement boot drive, do I have to repeat the whole process of verification of some kind prior to re-installing?
    Once I graduate (and understand that will not be able to keep my student email address), how will this effect me in regards to the Adobe software? What if I need to reinstall or install it on a laptop (I heard you can install it on two computers)?

    You only verify once. Acceptance makes you eligible for a serial number.
    To re-install after that, you install the software and enter your serial number.
    Ensure that your computer meets the minimum requirements to run CS6.
    Once I graduate (and understand that will not be able to keep my student email address), how will this effect me in regards to the Adobe software?
    You can still continue using your student software after you graduate.

    You will pay normal retail price for other Adobe software or to upgrade or to join the Cloud.
    What if I need to reinstall or install it on a laptop (I heard you can install it on two computers)?
    Download the software installer (or use your disc), install it and enter your serial number.
    Your license entitles you to activate the software on a maximum of two computers at the same time.
    Note: the CS6 license is operating system specific i.e. works on 2 x Windows only or 2 x Mac only. You cannot mix and match. However you can mix and match Cloud (CC) software.

  • Email Change, Pre-Sale ticket question

    The email account I'd registered on iTunes with is no longer active. I had pre-ordered an album which came with pre-sale ticket information, but that email (presumably) went to my no longer valid email address. I was unaware that it had been deactivated until I tried to check it for this reason. I changed my email address to an active one, but I'm not sure how to get this information again. Since my help options appeared to be update my software and post in the forum, I chose the latter obviously, but if there is some tech person I can write to to ask about this, I'd appreciate it since the pre-sale starts soon. Thanks
    -Kim

    No one here can help, this is a user to user forum.
    Best bet is to contact iTMS customer support.

  • Technical question for RSR_OLAP_BADI

    Hello,
    If you use virtual characteristic/key figures you implement RSR_OLAP_BADI. If you use in addition RSR00002 (Exit for BEx Variables) you may even use values of variables when calculating virtual characteristics/kea figures. In order to do so, you have to put the value of the variable into a static attribute of the BAdI-class.
    Question: What happens if two users execute the query at the same time with different values for the variable? My problem is, that the BAdI-class as well as the attribute are static and not instance.
    Thank you + Regards,
    Ingo

    It depends on the OLAP Cache Settings.

  • Sales & Delivery question for a Gift!

    I'd like to purchase a Macbook Air online from the Apple Store as a gift to someone living in Thailand, using my credit card.
    Upon delivery, will they ask her to see the credit card? For obvious reasons this won't work for me as I will be away and not on site!

  • Bunch of questions for 2k+ video editing setup. Please help if possible

    Hello everyone, I'm in the process of building a desktop (mainly for video editing -- with some graphic design and gaming here and there). I'll be working with Canon 5D III raw footage (Magic Lantern) and typical dslr h.264 for the time being. Eventually I'll be working with 2.5k and possibly 4k. I mainly use Premiere Pro and syncing with AE, though with this new build I will start on DaVinci as well.
    This is what I have OR considering thus far:
    (Just purchased) CPU: Intel Core i7-4930K 3.4GHz 6-Core Processor 
    (Just purchased) Motherboard: Asus X79 DELUXE ATX LGA2011 Motherboard 
    (just purchased) Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 780 3GB Video Card 
    (just purchased) Power Supply: SeaSonic G-750 750W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply
    (already owned) Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 120GB 2.5" Solid State Disk
    (already owned) Storage: Samsung 840 Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Disk 
    (considering) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler  
    (considering) Memory: G.Skill Ares Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1866 Memory
    (considering) Storage: Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive
    (considering) Storage: Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200 RPM Internal Hard Drive 
    (consdering) Storage: Western Digital Caviar Green 3TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive 
    (considering) Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (OEM) (64-bit)
    computer tower -- very undecided
    My main concern right now is setting up the hard drives. I've been reading and researching on how other editors are structuring their system, but it seems everyone has slightly different setup. So I'm somewhat confused on a smooth and optimal setup. Is this a good setup:
    1) Samsung 840 250gb -- for OS/apps
    2) Samsung 840 evo 120gb -- for project files/media cache/scratch disk?
    3) 2x Seagate Barracuda 3TB 7200rpm in Raid 0 -- for meda/raw files?
    4) WD Caviar 3TB 5400rpm -- for exports/general storage/etc
    Is that okay? Should I get another HDD to separate project files, media cache, and/or scratch disk? Is Raid 0 necessary? Most likely I'll be using onboard raid option and I never done raid before. The reason why I'm going with the Barracuda is because there's a deal on them right now.
    **note: I have 5 external hard drives for backup and backing up the backups. I'm not too worried about the reliability of Raid 0 if it means I can get quicker performance.
    Another question, can anyone recommend a tower that's under $150? I've been looking at a bunch and just can't decide. I live in NYC and my room does not have AC so having a tower with good airflow is a must. Also my roommate has a cat and I would like to have dust filters (though not as important as I can just buy aftermarket, but having a tower that comes with some would be nice)
    Sorry for the long post and thank you in advance!

    All my parts have arrived and I'm all set to put together, but I have one more question. According to Tweaker's page:
    Media cache & Media cache database files, created on importing media into a project. They contain indexed, conformed audio and peak files for waveform display.
    Typically small files, but lots of them, so in the end they still occupy lots of disk space.
    Preview (rendered) files, created when the time-line is rendered for preview purposes, the red bar turned to green. Read all the time when previewing the time-line.
    Project files, including project auto-save files, that are constantly being read and saved as auto-save files and written when saving your edits.
    Media files, the original video material ingested from tape or card based cameras. Typically long files, only used for reading, since PR is a non-destructive editor.
    Export files, created when the time-line is exported to its final delivery format. These files are typically only written once and often vary in size from several hundred KB to tens of GB.
    1(media cache) should be on the fastest volume and 5(exports) can be on the slowest. Now I have 3 SSD -- Samsung 840 Evo 250GB, Samsung 840 256GB, and Samsung 840 Evo 120GB... I plan on using the non Evo 250gb for OS/programs. That leaves the 120gb and 250gb (both Evo) for media cache and preview. My question is, which one of the two (media cache & preview) will pile up space faster? Should I put meda cache on the 250gb and preview on 120gb? Or flip flop them?
    Sorry for all the questions.

  • Pre sales/Sales/Support

    Hi all,
    I am in very need of your inputs
    I have to take a certification among Sales/Pre sales/Support.
    For Pre sales we have "BI EE Presales"," Oracle BI Applications" and "Performance Management (PM) Apps Presales Champion " options. All these options are also avaliable for Sales with Presales being replaced by Sales in the course name. For Support "General Support Consultant " and "Hyperion Support Consultant " are avaialble. Could anyone of you pls pls throw some light on what exactly does the Pre sales/Sales/Support mean in this context? I need your response very badly.
    Thanks in advance.
    Edited by: user10682075 on May 14, 2009 3:57 AM

    Yuo haven't given us a link to see what actually the titles are? A snippet picked can have a very different meaning when combined with the entire thing. Are these courses offered from Oracle? I guess Sales and Support should be clear. Pre Sales , AFAIK , are the guys whose job is to go and "break the ice" before the actual sales people can go and fix the deal while negotiating the price. Pre sales guys are sent to go and tell/show why one should buy the product that they are trying to sell throwing away the product that they are already using. So their job is not jst to go and say, hey use oracle , its damn good but to go and show, hey you are using XYZ dabatabase, let me tell you why Oracle db is better than this technically! So the presales guys are highly technical guys , yet they work as a sales team/guys.
    Hope that would make some things clear. If it didn't, as I mentioned , post the link page where these titles are mentioned. May be looking at that someone would be ableto give a better answser.

  • Pre-Sales Questions: RV220W & SRP 547W

    Hi,
    Couple of pre-sales questions if you don't mind:
    1. Does the RV220W Wireless-N Network Security Firewall allow RADIUS authentication of wireless clients on the WLAN?
    2.  Does the Cisco SRP 547W Wireless Router allow wireless clients to tunnel into the WLAN using VPN?
    Thanks very much.

    Yes it supports all the functionality. For more detail you can see the below link

  • Pre-sales Questions

    What is the best way to contact Apple and get answers to pre-sale questions? Sometimes these forums work well, other times there is no response. When there is a response, is there a way one can determine it the responder is a representative from Apple?
    Is there an 800 number that one can call for pre-sales questions? Unfortunately the closest AppleStore is 60 miles from my home.

    1159/3605
    Hi jbmth,
    Responses you get here are from other users that volunteer to share their Apple knowledge.
    The quality is probably the best possible, since every time something goes wrong in one's advice, someone else would quickly jump in and offer corrections/additions.
    Determine representatives from Apple:
    They have a white apple in front of their names. You won't see an answer from an Apple employee more than once or twice a year here really.
    This is most a user-to-user forum.
    What kind of info do you need?
    Generally speaking, speculation about new products is quite very unwelcome by Apple standards.
    Here in the Discussions, it is simply forbidden by the Terms of Use.
    I hope this helps.

  • Pre-order question for iPhone5/Verizon

    I have a quick question...
    My wife and son currently have the iPhone4 with AT&T and they are now out of contract.  I'm currently on Verizon.  I want to change their carrier and pre-order the iPhone5 for both of them from Verizon.  I want to add those lines to my existing Verizon account and transfer their numbers as well.  Would I be able to do this through this through the Apple Store's web-pre-order system? (or possibly Verizon's?) or will I have to speak with someone about doing this?
    Thank you so much in advance

    Here's what AT&T had to say about new customers when the 3GS was launched. I'd guess the same applies to iphone 4:

  • Pre-sale questions?

    Hi,
    since it seems impossible to contact Adobe in any way to get information BEFORE
    buying a product...
    I need to know whether Premiere Elements 8 allows you to add subtitles to your
    movies?
    I mean REAL subtitles that the user can enable or disable. I'm not at all talking about
    free text titles that are imprinted in the video itself.
    Thanks for any help.
    Steve
    P.S. if anyone has a pre-sale email address, thanks to let me know.

    No, you can not add optional captioning to videos in Premiere Elements.
    That's a function of more professional apps, like Encore and DVD Architect Pro.
