Problem accessing Storedge C4 changer

Hi,
I connected a Storedge C4 via the 1202 FC bridge to a V240.
I can see both the changer and the drive via the OBP:
ok probe-scsi-all
/pci@1e,600000/SUNW,qlc@2,1
********* Fabric Attached Devices *********
Adapter portId - 10B00
Device PortId 20100 DeviceId 81 WWPN 100000e002235a49
Lun 0 Changer QUANTUM PX500 000B
Lun 1 Tape HP Ultrium 2-scsi F63Z
On the host (after a boot -r) I can see the tape unit in /dev/rmt and iostat -En, but i cannot find the changer anywhere....
Any ideas??
TIA
Martijn

We had a similar issue with one of our C4's it turned out to be the v440 it was attached to.
I pulled both power leads on the v440 to reset the systemboard and scsi hba and all was good, I could then see the C4 after a probe-scsi-all.
As a precausion Sun also changed both terminators for single ended terminators, this reduces the i/o to 40mb/sec both reduces the amount of interference from the HBA.
Don't forget to boot everything in the right order. Leave the server off completely and first boot up the C4 this takes up to 10 minutes.
Then power on the server to the ok prompt do a probe-scsi-all and the robot should show as a qantum px500.
If not even after you've pulled both power leads on the server then look at cables, termination or scsi hba.
What server are you using for the media server connected to the C4 and what scsi hba are you using.

Giancarlo.

Server Cannot access StorEdge

Dear all,
From few days past I am having the problem of accessing StorEdge 3510 by my SF V890. Suddenly the storage light stop blinking and the server stops accessing the StorEdge. When it occured first time, I shut down both the server and StorEdge and changed the fiber cable, it was able to access then. But after 2 days later the same problem occured and then after rebooting the server and storedge the problem was removed. What might be the problem with the server that it stops accessing the StorEdge 3510 suddenly. Is it the problem with the Fiber Card. Please find here some log output.

I don't know if this will help but here's what happened today.
While I was out of the house, I wanted to see if the VPN connection was still active and working on my phone. It told me that it couldn't log in so no big deal. I figured I'd check it when I got home.
I got home and checked the Server settings for VPN and sure enough, it was off. I turned the VPN setting to ON and let it write its information. I then went to the AEBS tab on the left pane and it asked me for the password. Once I put in the password for the AEBS, it worked just fine.
So far what I've done was erase any Keychain passwords related to the AEBS and turned on VPN service to get it working. Don't know if that'll work for everyone else but hopefully it does. Seems it's a tiny bug that should be stomped out rather quickly as it's a huge piece of OS X Server.

I recently changed my email address and switched it to my primary address on my Apple ID account. It works in iTunes, but when I open up iCloud, my old ID shows and I can't access it to change anything. Can't ask for email change for password

I recently changed my email address and updated my Apple ID name to the new address. It worked for iTunes and apps, but when I bring up iCloud, my old ID name shows. I can'tr access it to change it since my security questions don't work and when I request an email to change password, it says it sent one but I do not receive anything. Just need to klnow how to change my Applle ID on iCloud if I can't access the old one. I'm afraid if I delete the account and open a new one, I'll lose all of my calendar.

If you have 'Find My iPad' activated on the iPad it will cause this problem. You will have to contact Support for help. Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'More Products and Services', then 'Apple ID'.

Problems accessing Music Files in Slideshow module in LR 2.6 and Windows 7 64 bit

     Just got new computer 64 bit Windows 7. Installed LR 2.6 and am having problem with slideshow and music. Never had this problem before with my XP computer. When I open up slideshow module and go to Playback window and check soundtrack and try to choose a music folder, I have a new problem. It opens up "Browse for Files & Folders" dialog box as usual, but it only lets me browse on my desktop or my User name on the C drive. My music is in my F drive where my data is stored. I've never had a problem accessing my music in my F drive in my XP computer, but this setup limits where I can browse to. Interesetingly, this works OK in LR 3 beta on this WIndows 7 PC where it opens up a dialog box "Choose a music file to play" which gives me access to all my drives. In summary, I can't access music files stored on a drive other than my C drive using LR 2.6 on a Windows 7 64 bit computer.
     I have attached a screen shot to compare the new Windows 7 Browse for Files & Folders dialog box to that in my XP computer.
     Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Matthew Kraus

Thanks for the reply. I went through the process you suggested to change Ownership & grant permission to access files. When I get to the owner tab in Advanced Security Settings....I am already the current owner of this folder.
What do I do now?
Thanks,

Problems accessing Time Capsule on windows Vista

I have an iMac running Leopard and a laptop running Vista Home Edition. I'm having some problems accessing Time Capsule from the Vista machine. everytime I click to access the drive, a message appears in the menu bar of the window that says (not responding). I've tried leaving it. I've even changed my entire wireless network to bypass the original g router (belkin) to use TC, so I now have TC as my router, Belkin just setup as a wired broadband modem but I still get the same problem. The mac seems fine, although I have had quite a few issues with drop outs.
both machines have the latest version of Airport Utility and Bonjour.
The laptop is a recent purchase to replace a dead XP machine, this worked fine and I managed to get stuff backed up just before it died, thankgod.
Any help appreciated.

No problem seeing Time Capsule with iMac, Dell desktop XP Home, Dell notebook XP Pro, and Fusion with XP Pro. All installed according to the installation guide. Installed AirPort Utility on all machines and updated firmware to 7.3.1. To see the other machines, make sure file sharing is on. Firewall on the PCs may need to be turned off. The printer plugged into the USB port also worked with all the XP systems and the iMac with a few missing features on iMac (I am assuming different driver issues). BTW, logging onto the created network and accessing the Time Capsule HD are separate. If you've entered different passwords for the HD and wireless networking when setting up Time Capsule initially (which I did through the iMac first), you'll need to enter them separately with the XP machines. You could also try resetting Time Capsule. Seems to work for others.

Problem Accessing Protocol Classes in INBOUND PROXY

Hi guys.
Im having problems accessing Protocol Classes in a inbound proxy.
I have this code that is copied from:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a7/3b2a2d45a34a23b75e3b18745c63bc/frameset.htm
DATA: lo_server_context   TYPE REF TO if_ws_server_context,

lo_server_context   = cl_proxy_access=>get_server_context( ).
lo_payload_protocol =
     lo_server_context->get_protocol( if_wsprotocol=>payload ).
But Im getting this error:
The result type of the function method cannot be converted into the type lo_payload_protocol
If I try to get the attachment protocol with this code:
DATA: lo_server_context TYPE REF TO if_ws_server_context,
lo_attachment_prtcl TYPE REF TO IF_WSPROTOCOL_ATTACHMENTS.
lo_server_context = cl_proxy_access=>get_server_context( ).
lo_attachment_prtcl = lo_server_context->get_protocol( if_wsprotocol=>ATTACHMENTS ).
Im getting the same error.
What am I doing wrong? It' s code copied fror SAP Library!!!
Thanks a lot.

hi,
you are choosing wrong type for lo_payload_protocol.
you must change like this
lo_payload_protocol TYPE REF TO IF_WSPROTOCOL.

Problems accessing History Store in NW Developer Studio

Hello All:
This is a problem that I had previously logged as a secondary issue under another problem. I'm relogging it here in the hopes that the new subject will bring some new eyes (and ideas) to the issue. May the moderators of the forum indulge me.
When I make a change to the Java code and save the changes, I get errors in the Error Log saying "Problems accessing history store", "Could not open indexed store", "Could not add history", etc. for the Bean file. All the messages are pointing to the ...\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources\.history\.index file. Is anyone familiar with this issue or how to resolve it?
Thanks,
.. Craig

This problem was caused by a SAP service not being active which prevented NWDS from accessing the required directories/files. The server had been shut down and when it was brought back up, the service (SAPMMC, I think) wasn't started automatically. Once the service was started, everything worked as expected.

Problems Accessing Local Files

Hi,
I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I'm havign problems accessing a file on the target machine's local filesystem. I've signed all my jars and added the all-permissions tag to the jnlp file. However, my code:
ClassLoader cl = getClass().getClassLoader();
InputStream is = cl.getResourceAsStream("c:/resources/testsuite.xml");
fails to find the file "testsuite.xml".
Is this a classpath issue? I've tried to add c:/resources to the class path but with no luck.
any help would be much appreciated
Thanks

Try "file://c:/resources/testsuite.xml" instead. I
believe you are suppose to be passing in a valid URL
and what you passed in wasn't.That's wrong. Resource name should be just a path. It could be a full path started from "/" or just a relative path from given class (here better to use this.class.getResourceAsStream() method).
Better yet, since you are giving full security access
to the user's local machine you don't really need to
rely on the class loader at all. It's just a normal
file, so you could create your File object and read it
in the way you do normally. I would suggest to do not rely on File object at all because it can only be dealing with local file system and thats can't be changed in future.

HELP! Problem accessing usb hard drive on airport extreme

Hi all,
Hopefully someone can help me.
I have a Macbook Pro (2009). Recently put on Lion and have had no problems until now. Last night, the computer could not see the USB HD that is plugged into our Airport Extreme that it was using for the time machine backups. HOWEVER, our Macbook (white 2007) which is also running Lion has no problems accessing the HD! The Airport is working fine as we can still access email, the internet and my NAS drive (D-link 323).
So, I went into the Airport utility and clicked on the Drive section... the drive is shown on the airport and the settings are all set for sharing (etc. etc.)... but in finder I cannot access any of the drives on the airport... I just get a "Connection Failed" and then a pop-up saying that there was an error connecting to the airport, check the address and if the problem persists check with the admin.
This is what I have done so far....
1. Rebooted the airport (using Airport utility)... didn't work.
2. Turned off the USB HD and turned it back on.... didn't work.
3. Verified and fixed the permissions on the macbook pro... didn't work.
4. Turned everything off and then restarted everything again... didn't work.
5. Compared all the settings on our macbook for the Airport extreeme (using the airport utility) and the macbook pro... everything was identical nothing needed to be changed.
6. Tried to connect to our macbook using the macbook pro... came up with a "Connection Failed"... HOWEVER I was able to share the screen?!?!?!?!?
7. I pinged the airport... no problems pining...its only has problems connecting to the drives on the airport.
The airport is shown under the "shared" section of finder along with my NAS dirve (D-link 323) and the macbook... I can access the D-link with no issues but nothing else.
Please help... this is very frustrating and It dosnt make sence as to why it can see the drive but wont let me access it.
Thanks!

A little update... spoke to Apple Care... they said that this happens and then are aware that this happens, but had no answers how to fix.
Unfortunately not much help... anyone else have any information?
Please help!

Problem accessing an object in a VBox

Hi!
I have a problem accessing an object which is in a VBox.
I made an example so you can see my problem. I am trying to
access pnlChat.
If you load the swf you won't see the Alert because there is
something wrong (and I don't know what)
If you try to remove the <mx:VBox> tags that wrap the
pnlChat Panel, it will work.
Why can't I access this object when it is in a VBox?
Thanks

From the FAQ I'm compiling:
Q: I need to set a property or add an event listener on a
component
that is in a ViewStack/TabNavigator/Accordion. When the
component is not
the first child of the Navigator Container, I get a null
object error
(#1009). What causes this, and how can I fix it?
A: By default, the Navigator containers only create the
children of
each pane as that pane is viewed. The easy way to fix this is
to set the
creationPolicy on the Navigator to "all." However, this will
cause your
application to take longer to load. A better way to fix this
is to wait for
a later event, such as creationComplete on the component you
want to access,
or to use binding to "pull" the data into the component.
The way I handle it is to call invalidateProperties() on
change of the
ViewStack. I then override commitProperties() and call an
"initializer" for
each pane. In the body of each initializer function, I check
to see if the
selectedItem for the viewStack is the one my initalizer cares
about. If
not, I return from the function immediately. Inside that
initializer
function, I set properties and add listeners as appropriate.

I am still having problems accessing java script sites. Anyone else having this problem?

I am still having problems accessing java script sites. Anyone else having this problem?

Javascript can be left on, but Java (which is something very different) should generally be turned off.
Apple barred Java from running on Macs, leaving companies that rely on Java plug-ins out in the cold.
Apple blocked Java 7 Update 11 by adding it to the banned list in XProtect.
This was the second time in two weeks that Apple has blocked Oracle's code from running on Macs. This time Java is blocked through Apple's XProtect anti-malware feature.
Java has come under fire as the means by which hackers have been able to gain control of computers. In April 2012 more than 600,000 Macs were reported to have been infected with a Flashback Trojan horse that was being installed on people's computers with the help of Java exploits. Then in August Macs were again at risk due to a flaw in Java, this time around, there was good news for Mac users: Thanks to changes Apple has made, most of us were safe from the threat.
Unwilling to leave its customers open to potential threats Apple decided it's safer to block Java entirely.
Macs running OS X Snow Leopard and beyond are affected.
UPDATE for those running Lion or Mountain Lion:
Oracle on Friday February 1 released a new version reportedly addressing vulnerabilities seen with the last build.
Apple disabled Java 7 through the OS X XProtect anti-malware system, requiring users to have at least version "1.7.0_10-b19" installed on their Macs. The release dated February 1 carries the designation "1.7.0_13-b20," meeting Apple's requirements.
Oracle "strongly recommends" applying the CPU fixes as soon as possible, saying that the latest Critical Patch Update contains 50 new security fixes across all Jave SE products.
Update foror Snow Leopard users:
Apple have issued update 12 for Java for OS 10.6:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1573
Note: On systems that have not already installed Java for Mac OS X 10.6 update 9 or later, this update will configure web browsers to not automatically run Java applets. Java applets may be re-enabled by clicking the region labeled "Inactive plug-in" on a web page. If no applets have been run for an extended period of time, the Java web plug-in will deactivate.

Problem accessing YAHOO Email folders on Z10 device

Hi everyone.
There seems to be a problem in problem accessing the folders on yahoo email accounts using z10 device.
I am able to send and receive the email properly using the z10 device. saving drafts are also working fine. But I am unable to access all email that were saved to yahoo folders before my transition to blackberry z10.
I am able to move any email from my inbox to an existing folder under yahoo. and move it back to inbox if required.
But when I try to access a mail that were saved to yahoo folders before my transition to blackberry z10, the following message appears "No enteries in this view". I did mention all folders to sync.- but the systems seems not to be doing that way.
Two scenario's possible:-
1. All folders are not geting sync.
2. Date/ timing issues (restriction) on certain folders coming in picture by default.
Would appreciate if someone could respond how to solve this issue or just forward by the z10 -support email id. plz
Thanks

I have removed battery, i have made sure new updates are in.

I am able to receive three other email accounts, they have no problems, just yahoo.
I tried to change wifi settings, but that will not change....
I have also lost all the names of my contacts in the phone book area... it is very strange...
the numbers are there, but the names disappear and say that the contact list is empty
my voice control does not work anymore as it says it cannot access contact book
then one time it loads up after a reboot and the telephone lists are all there... and then next time no
i am assuming all this is related?
can someone write me or tell me where/how to post this problem?
Try removing the CARDDAV, CALDAV and email account that are related to the Yahoo account, reboot the phone, and then just use the wizard, and re-create the accounts
Using the Playbook and the Z10 and the Z30 and loving them

Having problem accessing MacMini over network with PC's Windows 7

Hi all,
I have a Mac Mini with 10.6.x
Onec in a while, especially when restart Airport Extreme for upgrade or something else (both are connected with ethernet cable cat5e) ALL PC's on the network having problem accessing Mac Mini Server while All MACs are fine and can access all folders no problem. Usually takes about 3-4 min for PC to connect to server. Then once it is connected (it loads all folder and files in that current window on the PC) i can go from folder to folder with no delays. However if i close the window with all folders then again i have to wait for around 3 min. to load everything all over again. AFP and SMB are ON. Today i made an experiment and turned SMB off and the problem still excist with the difference that after 3-4 min delay no folders were shown.
It seems that the PCs have hard time establishing connection with the server which is weird that Macs don't have that problem. It must be something with the setting of Mac MIni. Other wise i have no problem accessing Internet so the routher is working fine. DHCP is ON on the AP Extreme.
I came across as i was searching for this issue and it seems that authentication - Golden triangle or whatever is called - might be the issue in the whole mess. Do you guys think that this might be the case ?
The only way i have found out to help is to restart the Router and Server and that usually fix the problem .
Could you please help me figure what is going on there?
Here is the original thread: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3867559?tstart=0 ( i think i posted in the wrong forum )

The specified changeip -checkhostname command does not make changes to your configuration.
To research the command (and that's entirely your perogative), please use Google or Bing to search for previous discussions and details, or review the provided man page documentation for the command. (Launch Terminal.app (folder Applications > Utilities) and issue the command man changeip. You'll see something like this:
$ man changeip
changeip(8)               BSD System Manager's Manual              changeip(8)
NAME
     changeip -- Change service configuration files with hard-coded IP addresses
SYNOPSIS
     changeip [-v] [-d path] old-ip new-ip [old-hostname new-hostname]
     changeip -checkhostname
     changeip -h
DESCRIPTION
     changeip is used to manually update configuration records when a server's IP address or hostname changed in a way that affected services were unable to properly process, for example when the server is behind a NAT device and the WAN identity changed. ...
Given your response and your concern, consider creating a backup of your disk. Shut down, boot the installation DVD, and use Disk Utility (from the Utilities menu) in the second screen of the installation process to copy your disk contents to an external storage device. (Time Machine isn't as good at getting a backup of a server as is a clean backup created while shut down.) There are descriptions around that detail how to create this backup using Disk Utility.
There is no DNS server implemented in the Airport Extreme. The Airport Extreme forwards DNS requests to a DNS server elsewhere. Few gateway devices contain DNS servers; that these devices request a DNS address tends to be confusing, too. That address is solicited from the user for use in the DHCP server that many of the available gateway devices provide.
There is no need for a DNS forwarder, particularly if your server is configured for your LAN. (Adding a forwarder adds another hop into the whole translation process. That configuration and that extra hop can be useful when the intermediate DNS server is providing specific, enhanced DNS-related functions, such as security monitoring and logging, or providing a "nanny filter" mechanism.)
If you are running DNS services on your LAN, then your Airport Extreme DHCP server should be configured to pass out the IP address of your DNS server.
It would appear that your local box has the default self-hosted DNS, and is not configured to serve LAN DNS (other than for itself). That's good. Accordingly, it'll likely be getting good DNS from itself, but will not be getting translations for other hosts on your network. That's not so good. When DNS responses are not available, you'll get DNS-level timeouts, and those are usually around 30 seconds each.
Check your server logs for messages related to the failed connections, and check the Windows file service logs for any errors being generated by the file service. The log information is most easily available from Console.app, which is a utility in Applications > Utilities folder, or from the Server Admin tool (Applications > Server folder) for DNS, and for the file server component.
The above is probably going to read like a wall of unfamiliar jargon, so please ignore this and my previous response here, and I'll leave it to somebody else to assist you here.

Sudden problems accessing webpages and iTunes & App store.

About 2 days ago, my iMac started having problems accessing the iTunes store (and downloading purchases), accessing the App store, and loading webpages (both on Safari and Firefox). The rest of my applications work without problems. At first I thought it might be a internet connection problem, however, I don't have any problems on my MacBook, iPad or iPhone. I tried fixing the disk permissions, but that had no effect. Any ideas on what I should try next. I thought maybe I should do a clean installand then restore my my applications and user data from a backup I will make, however, I couldn't download Mountain Lion because of the problems with the App store (the download stalled at 360k). I know I can download it to my MacBook, but I was wondering if anyone out there has experienced anything similar and what might otherwise be done to fix it.
Thanks,
Erich

Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
Take all the applicable steps in this support article.
Step 2
If you're running OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and take the remedial steps suggested in the summary that appears, if any. The program also generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
Step 3
If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. Continue if you find that Wi-Fi is faster with Bluetooth disabled.
From that same menu, select Open Bluetooth Preferences. If the box labeled Discoverable is checked, uncheck it. Click the Advanced button, and in the sheet that opens, uncheck the top three boxes, if any are checked. Click OK. Enable Bluetooth and test again.
If the application called "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" is running, quit it.
Step 4
This step will erase all your settings in the Network preference pane. Make a note of them before you begin, and recreate them afterwards. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the preference pane.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Reset the System Management Controller.
