Question about package replication retry

Hello. My environment is SCCM 2012 SP1. I will be setting up several remote distribution points that are rebooted daily. Once the distribution points are up, I will need to distribute several large packages to them. Because of the bandwidth available,
the packages cannot complete before a reboot is finished. My understanding is that SCCM will retry to distribute a package 100 times before stopping. Also, my understanding is that SCCM will also start over where it stopped during the previous retry and not
start completely start the distribution from the beginning. Is this correct?

Retry value by default is 100, you can change that if you wish.
For content distribution to DP, TechNet does not mention anything about resume option between site server and DPs:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg712694.aspx#BKMK_MonitorContent
Clients can do that though by using BITS enabled DP.
I found this for SCCM 2007:
BITS is never used to transfer content from the site server to the distribution point. The site server always uses SMB to copy packages to distribution points and does not use any throttling or fault tolerance.

  • Basic Questions about Package Installation

    I have one basic question about installing packages.
    How can I find out if needed software is already installed without knowing the name of the package?
    For e.g. I want to know, if the MYSQL Server is already installed but I don't know the Package name.
    How can I find out the package name of needed software?

    Difficult.
    Assuming the string "MYSQL" appears somewhere in the package
    name or the package description, you can grep the output from
    "pkginfo". That is "pkginfo | grep -i sql" would list all installed
    packages that contain the substring "sql" with either upper- or
    lowercase letters.

  • Question about packages from AUR that get into [community]

    just noticed that powerpill is out of the AUR and into [community] (yeah!).  My question: since I installed powerpill and its two deps from the AUR, should I uninstall the versions that I built from the AUR then install from the repo or doesn't it matter?  In other words, will pacman know that these are in the repos and if updates are posted, will it fetch them just like any other package?
    I think the answer is no to the uninstall and yes to pacman just working, but I'd like to hear from the pros
    Thanks!

    Thanks for the confirmation.  Powerpill rocks - I'm very glad to see that it's in [community] now.  I took a stab at updating the beginners guide with an entry about it.  I don't have much time tonight to do it justice, but at least it's a start.

  • A simple question about packaging

    Hello,
    I have a question related to java package.
    I download a java package from web, suppose the jar file is: fghi.jar, includes classes and source files.
    I copy it to c:\temp\ directory, and then uncompress it onto my C:\temp\ directory.
    Then the directory structure is: c:\temp\com\abcd\fghi\swing
    one of the file under c:\temp\com\abcd\fghi\swing directory is Test.java:
    package com.abcd.fghi.swing;
    public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args){
    I want to run the test program after compiling it
    c:\temp\com\abcd\fghi\swing\java Test
    Then it gives the error message:
    "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError"
    By the way, I had modified my CLASSPATH variable,
    CLASSPATH=c:\temp\fghi.jar
    My computer OS is windows 2000.
    Can anyone tell me how I can run it successfully?
    Thank you very much!

    If you didn't change anything in the java program, you don't need to compile them. In order to run the Test java program, change current directory to c:\temp and run following command.
    java com.abcd.fghi.swing.Test

  • Newbie questions about Database replication, "backups", and sql version

    Just created my first Sql Database using the "SQL Database Management Portal". A blast but three questions come to mind:
    1. Is this DB automatically
    "replicated"? (In other words,  is DB "failover" or clustering,  a feature of all newly created Azure databases?) 
    2. Our on-premise model is to make a daily DB backup which is saved to a nightly tape. If needed, we can restore a two-month old database backup under a new name to compare it with the current one. Does Sql Azure support this capability
    or not? Can it be requested?
    3.  Which on-premise version of sql is "Sql Azure" closest to? (2014?)
    TIA,
    edm2
    P.S. My database was created using the "web" edition.

    Hi edm,
    According to your description, you create a SQL Azure database in Azure platform. The replication feature is not supported by Microsoft Azure SQL database. If you want to sync the SQL Azure database and local database, you can use SQL Azure Data Sync service.
    For more information, see:
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/the_cloud_pilot/archive/2011/10/24/your-first-sql-azure-data-sync-step-by-step.aspx
    In addition, if you have Web or Business Edition databases, you must create your own backup strategy. You can use database copy or Import and Export services to create copies of the data and export the file to an Microsoft Azure storage account. Meanwile,
    Windows Azure SQL Database provides a mechanism for automating the process for exporting a database to BACPAC files on a set interval and frequency. For more information, see:
    Schedule an Automated Export:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh335292.aspx#automate
    Windows Azure SQL Database Backup and Restore strategy:
    http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/3057/windows-azure-sql-database-backup-and-restore-strategy/
    Currently, Azure uses a special version of Microsoft SQL Server as its backend. It provides high availability by storing multiple copies of databases, elastic scale and rapid provisioning, when we check the version of SQL Server, it shows as follows.
    Microsoft SQL Azure (RTM) - 11.0.9216.62

  • General question about packages after the -Rs removal

    Hi !
    This is more of curiosity question . I was always wondering after i perform the command pacman -Rs package and then i try to install it again the downloaded size is 0 kb
    Meaning that the file is already stored on my hard drive . How can those packages be removed from my hard disk ?

    shak wrote:OK thanks for your help . The only relevant command i found is pacman with the  -n option , nosave. Is this the one ?
    No. the nosave option is for config files that would be saved as .pacnew if the option was not passed in.
    What you need is
    sudo pacman -Sc
    This will clean your cache and remove all the packages that are NOT installed on your system.
    If you want to remove every package from the cache then pass in an extra -c option
    sudo pacman -Scc

  • Question about packages

    Hello! I'm pretty new to java and had a quick question. Lets say I have a class called homework1 and another class called building. Each class is public but in separate packages. I want to create an object of
    building within the homework1 class (this class contains main). Normally you would simply type something along the lines of:
    Building house = new Building();however when I try this it doesn't work, says something along the lines of the type cannot be resolved. If I move homework1 into the same package as Building it works perfectly fine. What am I doing wrong? It's a requirement that the classes be in separate packages so I can't simply place them in one. Any help, tips or suggestions are greatly appreciated! Thanks.

    Classes from other packages have to be imported.

  • Question about packaging material

    Hello all,
    i have encountered an interesting problem.
    I create an order with material r-1150 qty = 10.
    and in delivery i used 2 packaging material, each for 5 pc.
    1. PK-100
    2. PK-095,
    thus 2 HUs are created
    however only PK-095 can be displayed in delivery item list ( together with Material r-1150) .the PK-100 is missing.
    and in the following TO, by picking , i can also only confirm the material and PK-095. and the material qty = 10 .
    then I tried to package with only pk-100, and it is still missing from the delivery item list.
    one thing more weird is , if i change manually in Picking the pk-100 to pk-095, even Pk-095 wont be displayed. Only when I empty the box, and delete the HU and create a new HU with Pk-095, then it could be displayed.
    So do you know how to control this ? and where i can configure to hidden and display the packaging material ?
    thanks!
    regards
    Recke

    Hello, Sridhar,
    first, thanx for ur answer,
    but I think u misunderstood it.
    In the first 1. example
    In the delivery, I packed the qty 10 into 2 different packaging material
    1. PK-100 ---- 5 pc
    2. PK-095 ---- 5 pc.
    but in the item list of delivery, i can only see PK-095, and the following TO, I can pick the total 10 pc and PK-095
    but the PK-100 is missing ( despite that it contains 5 pcs)
    In the 2nd example.
    I only use PK-100 to pack in delivery, but still missing in the item list. That means only my 10 pc product is there.
    see attached file
    in my example 3
    I only use PK-095 as packaging material, it displays together product.with out any problem.
    so do u know what is the matter here ??

  • One question about package

    this why?

  • [SOLVED] Question about package updates and ABS

    Hello,
    I have manually compile my kernel in order to apply a patch my laptop needs to suspend. So I use abs and customize the pkgbuild. A few days ago when the update for kernel26-2.6.33.3-2 came out, I thought I'd just refresh abs, rebuild, and then I'd be up to date. But instead now pacman -Syu tells me that there is still an update for the kernel.
    Does building from ABS not get you the latest package update?
    Also, what exactly is the package update compared to a software update? I'm guessing that it is an arch only update to the package but the software itself is the same version. Or am I totally off?
    Thanks for the help!
    Last edited by Fingel (2010-05-12 03:42:38)

    When building via ABS, the package installed gets its version from the PKGBUILD ($pkgver-$pkgrel).  Pacman just looks at available version vs installed version to tell if you should upgrade.
    Your abs tree was probably just not up to date; just because pacman -Syu says your mirror has a package, doesn't mean building via abs _at that moment_ will get that version.
    Be sure to run `abs` to update your tree, then when you're editing the PKGBUILD, check which version it's building.  In some cases, you can simply increment those numbers right in the PKGBUILD before building as source files are often fetched based on those variables, etc. -- but I don't know if I'd recommend that when building something like the kernel.

  • Quick question about data replication

    Hi all,
    We have 9i database running on Sun solaris. Can we make a copy of this database on another server (backup and restore) and then apply archive logs from the databaser to its copy to keep the copy current.
    I know Oracle has solution like Standby database for this but we need this a temporary solution for few months until we go to 10g/11g.
    Please let me know if I am not clear or any other info. is required to answer this.
    Thanks & Regards,

    That is what a Scripted Standby is -- not using DataGuard.
    You setup scripts to push/move/copy archivelogs from the Primary server to the Standby server (or you use log_archive_dest_2 to have the archivelogs written to the standby via RFS, with a listener and the database instance in MOUNT mode on the standby).
    On the standby, you have a script that periodically "wakes up" (or is awakened by a process on the Primary which has pushed new archivelogs) and then issues a RECOVER but does NOT do an OPEN. It then shuts down after having applied the last archivelog received.
    I don't have a script ready but did do this even in Oracle7. (with additional logic to check CHANGE# or SEQUENCE# and also do Checksum comparisons of the ArchiveLogs).
    A google search will return a number of suggestions.
    for example

  • Qustions about Package "Groups"

    Hello,
    I have some general questions about package "groups" in Pacman. Mainly, I'm curious about who is responsible for deciding when a group will be made and what packages will be included. For example, I type in "pacman -S gnome" and get this:
    gnome package not found, searching for group...
    :: group gnome (including ignored packages):
    epiphany gnome-applets gnome-backgrounds gnome-control-center
    gnome-desktop gnome-icon-theme gnome-media gnome-mime-data gnome-mount
    gnome-panel gnome-screensaver gnome-session gnome-settings-daemon
    gnome-themes gnome2-user-docs libgail-gnome metacity nautilus
    notification-daemon yelp
    :: Install whole content? [Y/n]
    Who decides what all those packages will be? Is there a place where users can provide input about what should be included? I realize a big part of package groups by be simply ease of dependecy managent, but it seems it would be a useful tool for users to get a system up and running quickly. For example, there are several basic things that one would need to get a usable "desktop" up and running (not counting the WM or DM). For example, xorg, alsa, etc.
    I understand that Arch is all about simplicity and building a system from the ground up, which I totally love, but many of us are still going to have the same core goals in mind when setting up a "desktop" system.  We're all going to need xorg, want sound, desire pretty fonts, and have some common useful apps. So, for anyone that falls into that category, a package group called something like "arch-desktop" could include some of these core components. We could even eventually have additional groups tailored towards specific DMs like "arch-desktop-xfce" or "arch-desktop-gnome".
    Now, I realize I've totally spun this specifically for this propsed "arch-desktop" group but I guess my main point was to find out where one could provide official input for such things.
    Thanks!

    Mr. Swillis wrote:It seems to me like something that could make things "quicker" for an advanced user to get setup (less stuff to remember) and perhaps "easier" for teaching new Arch users.
    Since pacman will resolve all dependencies, all you need is to do a
    # pacman -Syu
    # pacman -S gnome
    after a core-install. Everything else you would need, could be clutter to someone else. I don't believe there is something as a 'sane default of packages'. Maybe if you're a fan of a particular windowmanager, then you might be interested in what the majority uses for a panel, a taskbar, a background-image-viewer, but also then there are so many choices and personal preferences that everyone could make his or her own group of packages.

  • A question about creating packages as local objects in ABAP

    Hi,
    I have a question about creating packages with SE80. Whenever I create a new package it is assigned a new transport request. After that, I can create new programs inside this package, and each time I can choose whether to assign the new program to a transport request or just save it as a local object (I often do this for test programs that I don't transport and I remove them once my tests have been done).
    What I would like to ask is that, is it possible to create a package (and not just programs inside a given package) as a local object? so that every new object created in this package will be considered as a local object?
    Thanks in advane,
    Kind Regards,
