Removing Workstations from Sybase DB

Hi,
Server & Workstations use Zenworks 4.01 + IR5 patch.
I have some obsolete workstation inventory information in the zenworks
sybase database. The eDirectory objects no longer exist but the data for
the workstations is returned in Inventory Query results.
I've read discussions and TID's for solving this on other versions of
Zenworks but none of the solutions worked for me. A "sync" to ensure that
data is removed if the eDir object does not exist would be good.
A few times in the past year the sybase database was offline for a week or
so. It could be that the edir objects were removed at this time and
therefore the removal process did not find it's way back to the sybase DB.
I have no automated WS inventory removal procedure.
I don't want to start with a clean DB and let it repopulate as some data
from workstations that only connect periodically is valuable.
Thanks in advance,
Julian

Thanks for the comment Marcus. I found that I had a problem with paths in
this file:
\ZENworks\Inv\server\WmInv\properties\InventoryRem oval.properties
and syntax in the file:
\ZENworks\Inv\server\WmInv\properties\InventoryRem ovalList.txt
With these two issues resolved a : "startser RemoveInventory" now removes
the items as desired.
Cheers
Julian

  • Removing workstations from database

    I have auto removal of unused worksataions setup on several servers.
    I
    noticed that some of the workstation objects that were manually
    deleted
    from NDS still show up in an inventory scan. Shouldn't the scheduled
    removal get rid of those from the database even if they've already
    been
    manually removed from NDS?
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Jared, in my message I wrote that I was using the STARTSER
    NSLOOKUPFORDB
    command and getting an error message. I was typing it in at the
    server
    console just as I had written it in my message. The actual command is
    STARTSER NDSLOOKUPFORDB. I was missing the first "D" in

  • Migrating from Sybase 11.9

    Is there an Oracle tool still available for migrating Sybase release 11.9 databases to Oracle? I can't seem to find anything on the Oracle website.
    Thank you,
    Steve

    SQL Developer migration is the latest migration tool Oracle offers to mograte foreign databases to Oracle. Unformtunately it does not cover Sybase ASE 11.9 database releases according to the manual:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/pdf/migrationdatasheet_15.pdf
    To migrate a Sybase 11 ASE you might think about using the old Migration Workbench utility:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/migration/workbench/index.html
    The Sybase 11 plugin has been removed from the list of available resources, but it is still available on the download server:
    http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/omwb/101040/Sybase11.jar
    In addition I've notified develoment if they could implement again a link on the OMWB download page fro the Sybase 11 plugin.
    So you need to get from the Oracle Migration Workbench download URL the common file of OMWB:
    http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/omwb/101040/omwb.zip
    Extract this ZIP file into a directory of your choice.
    The plugin (make sure you save the file as it is - as a JAR file) into the OMWB Plugin directory and then get from Sybase te jdbc driver jconn2.jar and put the JDBC driver in
    to the OMWB\drivers directory.

  • Cannot run vmware installer after manually removing Workstation 10

    So I have an issue with a corrupt vmdk file on a virtual machine build on Workstation 9. The vm will not boot past the Windows startup screen. That is issue #1.  Issue # 2 is I cannot install Workstation 9. Here is the history of my steps. That virtual machine was later upgraded from Workstation 9 to Workstation 10 hardware compatibility. In searching around the forums it seemed like folks who had similar issues uninstalled Workstation 10 and went back to Workstation 9. I used the manually uninstall vmware workstation from the command line instructions. Which advises you to remove all traces of vmware from the various modules and folders and locations. It removed Wksta 10. Now I downloaded Workstation 9 and I am trying to install it from command line.......the process just gets stuck and goes no further. With the message on screen:
    (vmware-installer.py:3378): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "murrine",
    I have updated the operating system several times with sudo apt-get update. I am running Ubuntu Mint Cinnamon 17.1 fresh install with no gimmicks installed.
    My system info is:
    Intel i5 cpu
    ASUS motherboard
    2 hard drives NO RAID.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    Hello,
    I'm also in this case. But I run 3.10.20 (LTS). Same error message if I install NVIdia proprietary drivers >319.49
    Due to tearing issues, have to have 331.20.
    Strangely, everything works fine (as user) if I run vmware from a terminal...

  • REPLACE statement removing commas from a money convert... I do NOT want it to do this

    I am using a case statement to remove the '-' from a negative number and place a '(' there instead. 
    The negative side of the CASE statement is as follows:
    REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, SUM(Begin_Balance)), 1), '-', '(') + ')'
    The positive side is:
    CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, SUM(Begin_Balance)), 1)
    The data output for the positive portion is 100% correct. Here is an example of the output I receive.
    (18271.15)
    (25000.00)
    82,490.00
    45,000.00
    Why is the replace statement stripping my commas?

    >> I am using a case statement to remove the '-' from a negative number and place a '(' there instead. <<
    So many horrible fundamental errors in one sentence! 
    1.  CASE is an expression, not a statement. An expression returns a scalar value of a known data type, A statement changes the schema. 
    2. In SQL, all display formatting is done in a presentation layer, never in the database.
    3. We use the ANSI/ISO Standard  CAST()  and not the old Sybase/Unix CONVERT today
    4. We use DECIMAL() and not the old Sybase/Unix MONEY. This thing does not work; it fail to do correct math; Google it! Do a data audit and see if you can go to jail for this. 
    5. SQL is not COBOL. The COBOL language treats all data as strings. STOP DOING THAT IN SQL! This language uses abstraction in the database and the presentation does the job that your old PICTURE clause used to do.

  • How can we remove items from the VF04 list?

    We have a long list of items in VF04 that, for various reasons (some process related, some due to errors), are not to be billed. We have looked at applying filters to the list but there is nothing really suitable to hide these individual documents e.g. we could filter out some dates where none of the items on that date are to be billed but other dates have a mix of items we want to bill and others we don't.
    I have done a search of this forum but didn't find a previous topic with a quick and simple method to remove items from the list .
    Is there a method, other than billing them or sorting each issue individually, to permanently remove individual documents from the VF04 list?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    David

    Hi,
    David,
    Download a list of Pending delivers doc form VF04.
    Paste the list in T.Code : VL09 (Delivery reversal) and reverse the delivery.
    Then go to T.Code: VL06G Select the list of deliveries that has been reversed, select/delete all un- wanted deliveries.
    This way you can remove all unwanted pending deliveries forn Billing due list (VF04).
    Thanks & Regards,

  • What steps do I take to give my husband my older IPAD w/o removing him from my Apple account?

    I recently bought a new IPAD2.  All personal data and APPS were transferred from my older IPAD to my new one at the time of purchase. I'd like to give my older IPAD to my husband w/o removing him from my Apple acct.  Apple's support does not provide instructions for my situation.  Does anyone have suggestions as to what steps I should take?

    What you might need to do depends upon how you want the old iPad to be for him.
    If he will be using your iTunes account for any purchases/downloads from the store then he can continue to be logged in with your account in Settings > iTunes & App Stores. If not then log out of your account by tapping on your id in there, and he can then log in with his own account - any apps and other store downloads that you leave on the iPad will remain tied to your account, so only your account will potentially be able to redownload them and/or download updates to your apps.
    To use his own account for Messages he can log out of your account via Settings > Messages > Send & Receive - tap on your id at the top of that screen and select 'sign out' on the popup. He can then log in with his account. Similarly for FaceTime : Settings > FaceTime (tap on your id on that screen). And (if he wants to back up his content to his own account) : Settings > iCloud > Sign Out
    If you want to remove all content from the old iPad so that he can start afresh with it, then Settings > iCloud > Sign Out, and then Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings

  • Best app to remove duplicates from iTunes 2014

    Hi All,
    I've been trying to research the best application to sort and remove duplicates from my iTunes library. I have over 7000 songs and iTunes built in duplicate finder doesn't look at the track fingerprint, which is useful for those songs which are labelled "Track_1" etc.
    Has anyone reviewed any recent products? I was looking at TuneUp, but after reading so many negative comments, I've decided not to go down that path. I would prefer a program that did most of the work for me, due to the amount of songs. Happy to pay for a good product...
    I do have MusicBrainz Picard, which has done a great job of tagging, but don't remove duplicates.
    Thanks in advance :-)

    Tune up is a great app.  When they moved from version 2 to version 3 is when it went to crap and all heck broke loose.  They shut their doors  but they have since re opened and went back to developing  version 2.  I use that version and I am pretty happy with it as being an overall cleanup utility.  I also use Musicbrainz and a couple of other utilities but in the end if you have an enormous library 20k plus then you are going to have a few slip through.  I would probably go with Tuneup if I were you and a thorough third party duplicate finder.  Dupe Guru's music edition seems to do a pretty good job.

    This is very vague.
    If you mean pics that you synced to your iphone form your computer, then delete them the same way. Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want to be on your iphone, sync.

  • Updated iTunes and now can't remove songs from my iPod - please help

    I've updated iTunes to version 11.0.0.163 and have an iPod Nano 16gb 5th generation.
    In iTunes, I'm no longer able to manually select songs to remove them from my iPod - I can't even see the list of music that's on my iPod. The only option it gives me is to sync, and I don't want to do that. Before I upgraded iTunes, it was easy to move music between my iPod and iTunes, now I can't - what's happened?
    My iPod is full so I want to remove some music, not all of it. Any advice? Please help - I'm going round in circles!
    Thanks

    Ctrl + B for show Top Menu

    itunes will now look more like itunes 10.
    You can click on your device in the lefthand window as before
    You may prefer to use the Music Sync page to select or deselect Playlists, Artists, Albums etc and click apply.
    Delete your files is enabled by ticking the Manualy manage music option on the Device Summary page. You may have to scroll down to find it
