Receiver server for Receiver file system

Hi,
I am trying to create a scenario where the data from SAP system goes to XI through ABAP proxy and has to write the data in the file.
My Question...
In the Integration directory my sender system is ABAP Proxy and receiver system is File adapter.
When I try to create a distribution channel of type XI adapter, I cannot select it as sender. By default it comes as receiver. How Do I go about doin this scenario.
Also, since I have to write to a file, it is my receiver(outbound adapter). Please can anyone tell me what would be the service definition for this as I am writing to a directory!!!
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sam,
Your query actually pertains to XI. Please post it in the Exchange Infrastructure forum.
Kind regards,
Markus

In Windows Event long I can see the following events logged:
Event 3002, Port Map:
Windows(R) failed a request to register RPC Port Mapper on TCP port 111. RPC Port Mapper cannot start.
Network File System (NFS) clients use RPC Port Mapper (also known as Portmap and Rpcbind) to discover NFS protocols on remote servers. Without RPC Port Mapper, Server for NFS
cannot start and NFS clients cannot access files on this server.
Verify that no other software is registered on TCP port 111, then start Server for NFS manually (which will also start RPC Port Mapper).
Event 7000, Service Control Manager:
The Server for NFS Open RPC (ONCRPC) Portmapper service failed to start due to the following error:
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Event 7001, Service Control Manager:
The Server for NFS Driver service depends on the Server for NFS Open RPC (ONCRPC) Portmapper service which failed to start because of the following error:
A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Event 7001, Service Control Manager:
The Server for NFS service depends on the Server for NFS Driver service which failed to start because of the following error:
The dependency service or group failed to start.
Based on a technet forum I have already checked and made sure there is no other service running on port 111 (command used is netstat -a -b -o).
Dependent Service Status:
During the installation process “Client for NFS” seems to have gone well and the service started successfully. But the “Server for NFS” failed, when checked for the status of the dependent process “portmap” service failed to start with the WIN32_EXIT_CODE
“31 (0x1f)”. Please find below the query result.

        CHECKPOINT         : 0x0
        WAIT_HINT          : 0x0
C:\Users\CMMAdmin>
As the EXIT CODE is 31 ( A device attached to the system is not functioning), I have checked device manager and made sure there is no yellow warning shown against any hardware device. Further I am not sure how to proceed and debug this issue.
Please let me know if you have any suggestion on how debug this issue further.

My solution was to run netstat -ano to identify what process was running on port TCP/UDP :111, then with the command tasklist I got PID matching with the task name. Once identified I stopped the process, rebooted and installed
the NFS service. On top of that, before installing NFS services I disabled firewall and antivirus. It worked fine for me. I hope this will be usefull for you. By the way, don't forget to enable all process back!
Have a good one!

Common content server for 2 SAP systems

Hello Friends,
We have configured a common content server for 2 SAP systems, say A & B using oac0 and csadmin, have set 2 content rep C1 for A & C2 for B resp. Please let me know if this is fine?
other thing is when i go to t-code csadmin on both the systems, for A - C2 displays customizing missing and for B - C1 displays customizing missing.but the systems are running fine and we are able to checkin documents
please let me know why it shows customizing missing?
Regards
Surjit

Hi,
The customizing missing message is due to 2 different SAP system. Means when you activate the content server thru CSADMIN the certificate is used only one. Right! Now physical systems are two so in both the cases it will show one as customizing missing because no physical rep available for missing one. But these will work at it's own level fine because the one is available as a physical rep in each case.
Hope this will resolve the query.
Regards,
Ravindra

Plain user and systemd: dependency failed for local file system

I tried to switch to systemd, but ended up in a maintenance console (Enter root password or Ctrl-D to continue):
Enter password.
journalctl -b as suggested yields "Dependency failed for local file system".
I couldn't find a systemd troubleshooting page in the Wiki. So, can someone point me to such a page? Anyone willing to give some hints?
What I did so far: Did what https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Systemd tells one should do to switch to systemd.
In the boot menu pressed e, moved one down to the line starting with "kernel", pressed e again, and appended init=/bin/systemd.
Somewhere I read that "mkinitcpio -p linux" should be issued to make systemd work. No (positive) effects.
Paul
P.S.: Shouldn't there be a topic "systemd" in "Pacman Upgrades, Packaging & AUR"?

According to the wiki you are supposed to append init=/usr/lib/systemd/systemd if you are using the "Mixed systemd/sysvinit/initscripts installation" mode. In all other configurations you should NOT have an init=.... entry since init becomes a symlink to systemd
As far as I know, the init= entry doesn't hurt anything - it just isn't necessary.
EDIT: Of course, it will hurt if the path was wrong...
Also, at least on my system, /bin/systemd symlinks to /usr/lib/systemd/systemd.

Cloned volume gets stuck at boot "Waiting for Network File System"

I've used "Carbon Copy Cloner" many times with success and no problems (v 2.3 , default settings, make destination bootable) as I migrated to larger drives or make backups in advance of a major OS upgrade.
Last time I was successful, I was at OS 10.3.5. I use 3rd drive to boot my Mac, then clone the one non-boot drive to the other. I do the disk repairs & permission repairs as the normal course of this process, before & after. I am now at 10.3.9. I am do this clone in prep to go to 10.4 so I have a good back in the event of later problems.
When I attempt to boot from the newly cloned partition, it goes fine on the boot process until it hangs at the "Waiting for Network File System" step and never gets past there. I've never had this happen before. I retired all the steps, even ran "Diskwarrier", but no change.
I am not trying to run from a remote or network drive, just a 2nd drive in my
G4 from which I have previously been able to boot (until this last clone attempt that is).
I googled the symptoms ""Waiting for Network File System"", found it to be common, but no real answers. Is this one of those annoying UNIX things? Any ideas how to fix / turn-off whatever is hanging the boot up? Thanks in advance!

Hi Kool,
So there seems to be a "speed-bump" around 10.3.9. No wonder I have had the same results with a different tint. I went to Drive Genius to clone this one. Results with that were interesting.
If I did a [Device] clone, it would take and show at start with 'option' key... and work just like my internal with 3 accounts on it... login and proceed like it was internal. If I did a [Volume] clone, it would not show up at start with the 'option' key... I'd have to boot it from System Preferences > Start-up Drive. Once booted, it had no login screen so all the files were accessible. I took the clone of this 3 account PB and tried it on an iBook. Had to boot from System Preferences too, also, all the account were accessible from that machine... implying that anyone who had that drive could get past/into my files that would be secure on my computer, but not on the clone. If I took the [Device] clone and booted from the ibook at start with the option key, it would not get past the login screen... altho the mouse worked and I could click on the name, that was as far as it got, Froze.
So, I have figured, for safety, a [Device] clone is it, as long as the original computer lives. The safety features for login seem to be hardwired in the chip that the clone was made from (The iBook had 2 accounts but not my 3). If safety is not an issue, the [Volume] clone is fine... like moving to a newer OS on the same computer. It would seem from your experimentations that the situations with this 10.3.9 is just a hick-up and is solved in 10.4.3 with CCC v3...
Thanks for your info... I am thinking of going to Tiger, but I am so fond of this Panther...

Plumtree Crawler Web Services for NT File Systems

Hi,
I'm working with Corporate portal v5.0.4J. I'm trying to figure out if the 'crawler web services for NT file systems' are build into the portal or whether it is an optional component that needs to be installed?
Any info is appreciated.

Archive Repository - Content Server or Root File System?

Hi All,
We are in the process of evaluating a storage solution for archiving and I would like to hear your experiences and recommendations. I've ruled out 3rd-party solutions such as IXOS as over kill for our requirement. That leaves us with the i5/OS root file system or the SAP Content Server in either a Linux partition or on a Windows server. Has anyone done archiving with a similar setup? What issues did you face? I don't plan to replicate archive objects via MIMIX.
Is anyone running the SAP Content Server in a Linux partition? I'd like to know your experience with this even if you don't use the Content Server for archiving. We use the Content Server (currently on Windows) for attaching files to SAP documents (e.g., Sales Documents) via Generic Object Services (GOS). While I lean towards running separate instances of the Content Server for Archiving and GOS, I would like to run them both in the same Linux LPAR.
TIA,
Stan

Hi Stanley,
If you choose to store your data archive files at the file system level, is that a secure enough environment? A third party certified storage solution provides a secure system where the archive files cannot be altered and also provides a way to manage the files over the years until they have met their retention limit.
Another thing to consider, just because the end users may not need access to the archived data, your company might need to be able to access the data easily due to an audit or law suit situation.
I am a SAP customer whose job function is the technical lead for my company's SAP data archiving projects, not a 3rd party storage solution provider , and I highly recommend a certified storage solution for compliance reasons.
Also, here is some information from the SAP Data Archiving web pages concerning using SAP Content Server for data archive files:
10. Is the SAP Content Server suitable for data archiving?
Up to and including SAP Content Server 6.20 the SAP CS is not designed to handle large files, which are common in data archiving. The new SAP CS 6.30 is designed to also handle large files and can therefore technically be used to store archive files. SAP CS does not support optical media. It is especially important to regularly run backups on the existing data!
Recommendation for using SAP CS for data archiving:
      Store the files on SAP CS in a decompressed format (make settings at the repository)
       Install SAP CS and SAP DB on one server
       Use SAP CS for Unix (runtime tests to see how SAP CS for Windows behaves with large files still have to be carried out)

How best store files on application server: Tables vs File system

Hi Experts,
We want to let users to upload files to application server. The number of files can potencially grow over time (1000 files every month) though I whould like to limit size of each file not more than 1-2 MB.
Also files should be classified (having custom attributes) so later on we need to search, select files according to attributes.
So what are the best options in long run (for performance, reliability etc)?
We have NW system 7.0 with MaxDB
I can think of the following options:
1. Store files in TRANSPARENT table in RAWSTRING. Easiest variant (to select files etc) Here I have concerns how this table and database behave after some period of time and what will happen if size will grow to let say 50 GB. Will it work? What are normal size limits for transparent tables?
2. Store files in CLUSTER table in RAWSTRING. Less convenient to work with (joins are not allowed etc). Will cluster table help to handle big size of table? What are practical size limits for cluster tables?
3. Store files on file system (on application server) and write info (attributes etc) into ztable. Select from ztable and read content file from file system (dataset commands?). So files will be written to one directory just one after another.
What are the best option to follow? I would personally prefer option 1 as easiest but have servious concerns regarding size of one transparent table.
What do you recommend?
Regards,
Dmitry.
Edited by: Dmitry Kalmykov on Jul 28, 2009 8:58 AM

Hi,
I too feel that option 1 would be best choice.
For your ref: Check the Transp.table REPOSRC and the field name DATA
Also Check the technical settings (Size category).

Best practices for ZFS file systems when using live upgrade?

I would like feedback on how to layout the ZFS file system to deal with files that are constantly changing during the Live Upgrade process. For the rest of this post, lets assume I am building a very active FreeRadius server with log files that are constantly updating and must be preserved in any boot environment during the LU process.
Here is the ZFS layout I have come up with (swap, home, etc omitted):
NAME                                USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT
rpool                              11.0G 52.0G    94K /rpool
rpool/ROOT                         4.80G 52.0G    18K legacy
rpool/ROOT/boot1                   4.80G 52.0G 4.28G /
rpool/ROOT/boot1/zones-root         534M 52.0G    20K /zones-root
rpool/ROOT/boot1/zones-root/zone1   534M 52.0G   534M /zones-root/zone1
rpool/zone-data                      37K 52.0G    19K /zones-data
rpool/zone-data/zone1-runtime        18K 52.0G    18K /zones-data/zone1-runtimeThere are 2 key components here:
1) The ROOT file system - This stores the / file systems of the local and global zones.
2) The zone-data file system - This stores the data that will be changing within the local zones.
Here is the configuration for the zone itself:
<zone name="zone1" zonepath="/zones-root/zone1" autoboot="true" bootargs="-m verbose">
<inherited-pkg-dir directory="/lib"/>
<inherited-pkg-dir directory="/platform"/>
<inherited-pkg-dir directory="/sbin"/>
<inherited-pkg-dir directory="/usr"/>
<filesystem special="/zones-data/zone1-runtime" directory="/runtime" type="lofs"/>
<network address="192.168.0.1" physical="e1000g0"/>
</zone>The key components here are:
1) The local zone / is shared in the same file system as global zone /
2) The /runtime file system in the local zone is stored outside of the global rpool/ROOT file system in order to maintain data that changes across the live upgrade boot environments.
The system (local and global zone) will operate like this:
The global zone is used to manage zones only.
Application software that has constantly changing data will be installed in the /runtime directory within the local zone. For example, FreeRadius will be installed in: /runtime/freeradius
During a live upgrade the / file system in both the local and global zones will get updated, while /runtime is mounted untouched in whatever boot environment that is loaded.
Does this make sense? Is there a better way to accomplish what I am looking for? This this setup going to cause any problems?
What I would really like is to not have to worry about any of this and just install the application software where ever the software supplier sets it defaults to. It would be great if this system somehow magically knows to leave my changing data alone across boot environments.
Thanks in advance for your feedback!

Hello "jemurray".
Have you read this document? (page 198)
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/820-7013?l=en
Then the solution is:
01.- Create an alternate boot enviroment
a.- In a new rpool
b.- In the same rpool
02.- Upgrade this new enviroment
03.- Then I've seen that you have the "radious-zone" in a sparse zone (it's that right??) so, when you update the alternate boot enviroment you will (at the same time) upgrading the "radious-zone".
This maybe sound easy but you should be carefull, please try this in a development enviroment
Good luck

Cannot uninstall Exchange 2013 from Server with REFS file system

EX2013 SP1 installed fine on the 2012 R2 server with REFS, but now I need to remove it and reinstall. When I go to uninstall it, I get an error that "the specified installation directory must be located on a NTFS file system". I have tried
via control panel and command line.
I could avoid the uninstall if I could replace the Enterprise Edition license key with a standard key. the "Change License Key" option only allows you to go from standard to enterprise.
Any advice on either issues? (uninstall from REFS or change enterprise key to standard key)
According to the below TechNet article REFS is supported for an install, but maybe not an uninstall
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee832792(v=exchg.150).aspx

Hi,
1. I suggest romving previous Exchange server via ADSIEdit.
NOTE: It is better to try the steps with the assistance of a MS support. Do remember to backup the AD.
2. Then reformat the file system to NTFS.
3. Last, reinstall the new standard Exchange version.
Thanks
Mavis

Help! what is the default location for shared file system?

Help! i came in this morning and for some bizarre reason the shard file system information had disappeared and podcast producer wouldn't work i thought it was in library/quicktimestreaming/movies so i set it to there but when i try and submit a video i just get question-marks in the post where the video should be its obviously not finding it. So i found where most of the previous videos were which is a folder called Podcast Producer which seems to be a link to my external drive but when i set the shared file system to this folder it creates a new folder called podcasts and sticks them in there so i get the same question-mark scenario. Its bizarre i can't figure out why it would losse the information in server admin the only thing i can think of is that i did a repair permissions and wondered if it might have set some permission on the shared filesystem folder differently and made it somehow inaccessible does anybody know what permissions should be set on the folder? Also regarding quicktime streaming does this location have to be the same as the shared file system folder?
Message was edited by: purplemonkey1

Thanks - The folder was hidden, so once I changed my options to see hidden files, I was able to find it exactly where the link told me it would be.
Much appreciated!

I am running Mac OSx Lion 10.7.2. My problem is I can't search on an external network server for a file with the finder toolbar anymore. Nothing shows up and it will not search. I was able to in snow-leopard and am no longer able to w. Lion. Suggestions?

I am running Mac OSx Lion 10.7.2.
My issue is that I am not able to run a search in the finder toolabar on a network server. No files show up nor does it search on the server anymore. I was able to run the search in snow-leopard and am no longer able to do so with Lion. Is there a preference I can change or some kind of app or program I can download that will help me with this issue? This is extremely problematic for me as I am searching for files all day everyday. Thank you!

Hello,
It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
Reset the Firewire bus
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.

How do I identify the latest file modifications, application install, and registry key modification for Security Forensics.... using GP Audit for registry/file system

Hello,
Title pretty much states it all. I initially set out (as part of a Security Forensics initiative) to identify the most recently installed applications, modified files, and registry key changes using PowerShell. I attempted to pull this information and sort
them by date installed/last modified, but it was brought to my attention this information isn't always present and can be modified - so it's not accurate.
At that time it was suggested we use Group Policy auditing for Registry and File System - but I'm not sure how I'm going to use/pull these in PowerShell? This will be used on remote host all over the world so local physical access isn't an option.
My question is:
Once Group Policy Auditing for Registry and File System has been enabled, how would I go about pulling those audit logs for review once a system has been identified as compromised? I'm brand new to this GP Auditing (we have a separate team for that) so feel
free to take it from the beginning. :)
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Here are a few suggestions for you:
Ensure Remote Registry service is started on local and remote machines.
Add the – Credential option and supply administrative credentials within the command.

Change ZFS root dataset name for root file system

Hi all
A quick one.
I accepted the default ZFS root dataset name for the root file system during Solaris 10 installation.
Can I change it to another name afterward without reinstalling the OS? For example,
zfs rename rpool/ROOT/s10s_u6wos_07b rpool/ROOT/`hostname`
zfs rename rpool/ROOT/s10s_u6wos_07b/var rpool/ROOT/`hostname`/var
Thank you.

Renaming the root pool is not recommended.
