SBS2011 and cloud solution advice

Hi
I have a client, they currently have an SBS2011 server looking after emails, redirected files, etc
They also have a Server 2008R2 standard install on a separate server, this looks after Centrally Shared Files within the business
Ok Broadband speed is standard ADSL 1MB up and 16MB down (so not great) Fibre Optic is years away.
They have just got a new contract job which will take them a few years to complete. They will have key members working remotely for quite some time (yes they will pop back and forth for server synchronisations etc)
However while they are working away they will need to store vast quantities of centralised data - data that they can access where they are and data that can be accessed by the main office.
Due to broadband speeds VPN's are completely out, my thought would be an online cloud server, so a third server in essence which is located in the cloud which both parties site and main office can see.
At first I thought about services like DropBox Team, and SkyDrive with Office365 and other services like that. The issue is they all require synchronisation tools that make every computer have to have a copy (the amount of data they will store over the years
could easily get towards 1TB, this can not be stored locally on each users machines (500GB hdd and waste of HDD resources) Benefit though Drag and Drop folder access, of files like normal plus version control built in... woo :) 
If you don't use the synchronisation tool you have to use the web interface, this is folder at a time, have to download, edit then use web tool to upload, and you can't upload folders and it becomes an absolute pain
Before anyone suggests SharePoint on SBS... again this seems to be a webinterface for files single file downloads and uploads
this is not an easy to use system
Clients could well be dealing with folders of photos wanting to download whole batches, groups, a selection of files, editing a selection etc.
They generally need that mapped drive folder drag and drop type interface, where groups of files can be edited etc, but without needing all files to be synchronised or antyhign complicated or selecting folders to synchronise, as they will never know what
they need until they need it, etc.
I was thinking maybe a VPS/Cloud/Dedicated server with Windows Server Standard installed on it, on the net might solve the problem , join it to the company domain remotely and then use that as a central store..... would I be able to map folders? would it
work?
Has anyone here had a similar setup need? and/or suggestions about the best way to do this? I mean the internet is just a big network, so surely a server located remotely should be able to be treated like a local server? the speed issues to a centralised
server on the net would be alright for users to log into as dealing with a capacity of 100MBit/s where as the company local server can only down 16mbit/s and up 1mbit/s
Thanks in advance

Hi Larry.
I'm not sure that would help, unless I'm missing something (quite possible)
As I say the main office broadband is absolutely dire 1mbit/s up and 16 mbit/s down
There will be several users on site, all with their own laptops. To use RDS - would mean another 7 licenses of everything (that they already have on their laptop) to try and work in the main office from their remote location. - They will have laptops etc
on site.
The issue is access of centralised data. On site they will be collecting 1-3TB of data over the 2 years - each onsite will have 4G upload speeds or dedicated line upload speeds (the speed issue on site is not an issue)
What we don't want is data spread over several laptops the people don't know who has what - also data needs to be backed up (can't trust users to backup themselves plus they'll keep their portable HDD next to their laptops)
Main office also needs access to the data - plus on site staff may go back to main office every so often and need access to data there etc
That's where my thought of a Windows 2008R2 standard server in the cloud came from - as Site will have good internet they will be able to upload data to that server
As the office has reasonable download, they can access the data they require, when they require (thing that put me off services like Dropbox and OneDrive that require Syncing all)
Everything backed up, everything accessible.... but I don't know if i'll be able to set up mapped drives to work just like a windows folder - these are basic users, trying to faff with FTP software or web interfaces they will not handle, they will get incredibly
frustrated with as they will have hundreds of files to deal with ever picture session they do, etc.
Hope that helps define the issue more
Thanks
Tris

  • Definitive Storage and Backup solution

    Hello, I'm looking for a definitive Storage and Backup solution.
    So far I've been looking on to Drobo 5D or N, LaCie 5big Thunderbolt™ 2, or LaCie 2big Thunderbolt™ 2.
    Networking would be a plus but not a must. I'm open for other suggestions and also wonder if these systems can be considered backup since they are ready for single or double disks failures.
    Thanks.

Of the hundreds of Hitachi hard drives received, not a single one had failed due to manufacturing or design errors. Adding the highest average lifespans and the best relationship between failures and market share, Hitachi can be regarded as the winner.
    Data Storage Platforms; their Drawbacks & Advantages
    #1. Time Machine / Time Capsule
    Drawbacks:
    1. Time Machine is not bootable, if your internal drive fails, you cannot access files or boot from TM directly from the dead computer.
    OS X Lion, Mountain Lion, and Mavericks include OS X Recovery. This feature includes all of the tools you need to reinstall OS X, repair your disk, and even restore from a Time Machine
    "you can't boot directly from your Time Machine backups"
    2. Time machine is controlled by complex software, and while you can delve into the TM backup database for specific file(s) extraction, this is not ideal or desirable.
    3. Time machine can and does have the potential for many error codes in which data corruption can occur and your important backup files may not be saved correctly, at all, or even damaged. This extra link of failure in placing software between your data and its recovery is a point of risk and failure. A HD clone is not subject to these errors.
    4. Time machine mirrors your internal HD, in which cases of data corruption, this corruption can immediately spread to the backup as the two are linked. TM is perpetually connected (or often) to your computer, and corruption spread to corruption, without isolation, which TM lacks (usually), migrating errors or corruption is either automatic or extremely easy to unwittingly do.
    5. Time Machine does not keep endless copies of changed or deleted data, and you are often not notified when it deletes them; likewise you may accidently delete files off your computer and this accident is mirrored on TM.
    6. Restoring from TM is quite time intensive.
    7. TM is a backup and not a data archive, and therefore by definition a low-level security of vital/important data.
    8. TM working premise is a “black box” backup of OS, APPS, settings, and vital data that nearly 100% of users never verify until an emergency hits or their computers internal SSD or HD that is corrupt or dead and this is an extremely bad working premise on vital data.
    9. Given that data created and stored is growing exponentially, the fact that TM operates as a “store-it-all” backup nexus makes TM inherently incapable to easily backup massive amounts of data, nor is doing so a good idea.
    10. TM working premise is a backup of a users system and active working data, and NOT massive amounts of static data, yet most users never take this into consideration, making TM a high-risk locus of data “bloat”.
    11. In the case of Time Capsule, wifi data storage is a less than ideal premise given possible wireless data corruption.
    12. TM like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
    13. *Level-1 security of your vital data.
    Advantages:
    1. TM is very easy to use either in automatic mode or in 1-click backups.
    2. TM is a perfect novice level simplex backup single-layer security save against internal HD failure or corruption.
    3. TM can easily provide a seamless no-gap policy of active data that is often not easily capable in HD clones or HD archives (only if the user is lazy is making data saves).
    #2. HD archives
    Drawbacks:
    1. Like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
    2. Unless the user ritually copies working active data to HD external archives, then there is a time-gap of potential missing data; as such users must be proactive in archiving data that is being worked on or recently saved or created.
    Advantages:
    1. Fills the gap left in a week or 2-week-old HD clone, as an example.
    2. Simplex no-software data storage that is isolated and autonomous from the computer (in most cases).
    3. HD archives are the best idealized storage source for storing huge and multi-terabytes of data.
    4. Best-idealized 1st platform redundancy for data protection.
    5. *Perfect primary tier and level-2 security of your vital data.
    #3. HD clones (see below for full advantages / drawbacks)
    Drawbacks:
    1. HD clones can be incrementally updated to hourly or daily, however this is time consuming and HD clones are, often, a week or more old, in which case data between today and the most fresh HD clone can and would be lost (however this gap is filled by use of HD archives listed above or by a TM backup).
    2. Like all HD-based data is subject to ferromagnetic and mechanical failure.
    Advantages:
    1. HD clones are the best, quickest way to get back to 100% full operation in mere seconds.
    2. Once a HD clone is created, the creation software (Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper) is no longer needed whatsoever, and unlike TM, which requires complex software for its operational transference of data, a HD clone is its own bootable entity.
    3. HD clones are unconnected and isolated from recent corruption.
    4. HD clones allow a “portable copy” of your computer that you can likewise connect to another same Mac and have all your APPS and data at hand, which is extremely useful.
    5. Rather than, as many users do, thinking of a HD clone as a “complimentary backup” to the use of TM, a HD clone is superior to TM both in ease of returning to 100% quickly, and its autonomous nature; while each has its place, TM can and does fill the gap in, say, a 2 week old clone. As an analogy, the HD clone itself is the brick wall of protection, whereas TM can be thought of as the mortar, which will fill any cracks in data on a week, 2-week, or 1-month old HD clone.
    6. Best-idealized 2nd platform redundancy for data protection, and 1st level for system restore of your computers internal HD. (Time machine being 2nd level for system restore of the computer’s internal HD).
    7. *Level-2 security of your vital data.
    HD cloning software options:
    1. SuperDuper HD cloning software APP (free)
    2. Carbon Copy Cloner APP (will copy the recovery partition as well)
    3. Disk utility HD bootable clone.
    #4. Online archives
    Drawbacks:
    1. Subject to server failure or due to non-payment of your hosting account, it can be suspended.
    2. Subject, due to lack of security on your part, to being attacked and hacked/erased.
    Advantages:
    1. In case of house fire, etc. your data is safe.
    2. In travels, and propagating files to friends and likewise, a mere link by email is all that is needed and no large media needs to be sent across the net.
    3. Online archives are the perfect and best-idealized 3rd platform redundancy for data protection.
    4. Supremely useful in data isolation from backups and local archives in being online and offsite for long-distance security in isolation.
    5. *Level-1.5 security of your vital data.
    #5. DVD professional archival media
    Drawbacks:
    1. DVD single-layer disks are limited to 4.7Gigabytes of data.
    2. DVD media are, given rough handling, prone to scratches and light-degradation if not stored correctly.
    Advantages:
    1. Archival DVD professional blank media is rated for in excess of 100+ years.
    2. DVD is not subject to mechanical breakdown.
    3. DVD archival media is not subject to ferromagnetic degradation.
    4. DVD archival media correctly sleeved and stored is currently a supreme storage method of archiving vital data.
    5. DVD media is once written and therefore free of data corruption if the write is correct.
    6. DVD media is the perfect ideal for “freezing” and isolating old copies of data for reference in case newer generations of data become corrupted and an older copy is needed to revert to.
    7. Best-idealized 4th platform redundancy for data protection.
    8. *Level-3 (highest) security of your vital data. 
    [*Level-4 data security under development as once-written metallic plates and synthetic sapphire and likewise ultra-long-term data storage]
    #6. Cloud based storage
    Drawbacks:
    1. Cloud storage can only be quasi-possessed.
    2. No genuine true security and privacy of data.
    3. Should never be considered for vital data storage or especially long-term.
    4. *Level-0 security of your vital data. 
    Advantages:
    1. Quick, easy and cheap storage location for simplex files for transfer to keep on hand and yet off the computer.
    2. Easy source for small-file data sharing.
    #7. Network attached storage (NAS) and JBOD storage
    Drawbacks:
    1. Subject to RAID failure and mass data corruption.
    2. Expensive to set up initially.
    3. Can be slower than USB, especially over WiFi.
    4. Mechanically identical to USB HD backup in failure potential, higher failure however due to RAID and proprietary NAS enclosure failure.
    Advantages:
    1. Multiple computer access.
    2. Always on and available.
    3. Often has extensive media and application server functionality.
    4. Massive capacity (also its drawback) with multi-bay NAS, perfect for full system backups on a larger scale.
    5. *Level-2 security of your vital data.
    JBOD (just a bunch of disks / drives) storage
    Identical to NAS in form factor except drives are not networked or in any RAID array, rather best thought of as a single USB feed to multiple independent drives in a single powered large enclosure. Generally meaning a non-RAID architecture.
    Drawbacks:
    1. Subject to HD failure but not RAID failure and mass data corruption.
    Advantages:
    1. Simplex multi-drive independent setup for mass data storage.
    2. Very inexpensive dual purpose HD storage / access point.
    3. *Level-2 security of your vital data.
    Bare hard drives and docks. The most reliable and cheapest method of hard drive data storage, archives, and redundancies
    The best method for your data archives and redundancies, which is also the least expensive, the most reliable, and the most compact option is the purchase of naked hard drives and at least one USB 3.0 HD dock ($40 roughly).
    While regarding Time Machine and your Macbook or desktop, your primary backup is best saved to a conventional USB (or Firewire / thunderbolt) hard drive inside an enclosure, the most important part of your data protection begins after your 1st / primary Time Machine / backup; and these are your secondary (most important) data storage devices, archives and their redundancies.
    However bare hard drives and docks (below) also work perfectly as a Time Machine backup, this is for home use, since the docking station is certainly not very portable as a notebook Time Machine backup device should be; nor should bare HD be packed around with a notebook, rather remain at home or office.
    Six terabytes of 2.5" HD pictured below in a very compact space.
    Bare hard drives and docks have the lowest cost, the highest reliability, and take up the smallest storage space
    Drawbacks:
    1. Care and knowledge in general handling of naked hard drives (how not to shock a bare HD, and how to hold them properly). Not a genuine drawback.
    Advantages:
    1. By far the least expensive method of mass HD storage on a personal basis. Highest quality naked HD can be purchased in bulk very cheap.
    2. Eliminates the horrible failure point of SATA bridges and interfaces between external drives and the computer.
    3. Per square foot you can store more terabytes of data this way than any other.
    4. Fast, easy, no fuss and most simplex method of data storage on hard drives.
    Time Machine is a system  backup, not a data backup
    Important data you “don’t dare lose” should not be considered ultimately safe, or ideally stored (at the very least not as sole copy of same) on your Time Machine backup. Hourly and daily fluctuations of your system OS, applications, and software updates is the perfect focus for the simple user to conduct ‘click it and forget it’ backups of the entire system and files on the Macbook HD.
    Bootable clones are the choice of professionals and others in that Time Machine cannot be booted from and requires a working HD to retrieve data from (meaning another computer). Your vital data needs to be and should be ‘frozen’ on some form of media storage, either in a clone, as an archived HD containing important files, or on DVD blank archival media.
    A file that is backed up to Time Machine is unsafe in that if that file is deleted off the computer by accident or lost otherwise, that file will likewise vanish from Time Machine as it reflects changes on the internal computer HD/SSD.

  • What's the best cloud solution for Aperture photos?

    I use aperture and looking for a cloud storage solution to free up space? Interested in Fanfair, Smugmug and Dropbox. I plan to keep using Aperture for recent photos but want to be able to upload (and remove from my hard drive) older photos to free up space?
    Any suggestions on product and workflow?

    The problem with multiple libraries is that they are inconvenient. Only one can be open and searched at a time, so if you're looking for that photo from your trip to NY, well was that in 95? 96? Maybe it was 94... And as an Aperture Library is pretty much unlimitied in size, I don't see a compelling argument for a library-per-year approach.
    Having two libraries - one on the internal and one on the external - seems like a lot more convenient, but I would do that slightly differently.
    On the External I would have one complete library. This makes backing up very easy. Back that up and you have everything backed up. From that I would export as a library the material you want to take on the road with you. If you import then ideally import to the one main library, of if not, then you can move material from the internal to the external library using the export as Library/ import library function. So, at all times the internal library is a sub-set of the main one.
    I'm wary of Dropbox and other cloud solutions for backing up an entire Library. Why? These are very large databases. I've seen people complain that restoring a library can take days simply because these guys shape their traffic and you're downloading massive amounts of data.
    Further, many cloud services store the files on inappropriate disk formats, and this can lead to damage to the Library.
    So, my suggestion would be as follows:
    One full size Library on an external
    That backed up to another external.
    Ideally, backed up to a second external - this lives off-site at your workplace, a relatives house, even in your car.
    On your internal a subset of your main library.
    As for backing up Photos to the cloud, that's quite simple. Services like Flickr and SmugMug - and there are many others - are there and you can upload all your photos, they remain accessible from any computer anywhere in the world.

  • Message Tags, Kudos, and Accepted Solutions

    The Toshiba Forums feature a few ways to make it easier for forum users to find messages of the greatest interest to them by allowing forum members to add information about messages in the form of tags, Kudos, and Accepted Solutions. 
    Tags
    Tags are any words that help to describe what a message is about.  Each message can have many tags associated with it, and any logged-in forum member can create tags for any message.  Searches in the forums also look at tags when looking for messages to match search terms, so tagging messages increases the value of the messages for all forum members.
    Also, as you navigate through most screens of the forums, there will be a "Top Tags" area on the right side of the page.  This tag 'cloud' displays tags that are relevant for your current context within the forums.  Larger font tag terms indicate that a tag is used many times in the current area of the forums, while smaller font tag terms are used infrequently.
    To add tags to a message, just click on the red 'Add Tag...' button at the bottom of the message. 
    Kudos
    Kudos are a way for forum members to express appreciation for any message that they find particularly helpful, informative, or insightful.  Any forum member can give Kudos to any messages, but only one Kudo per message can be given by each forum member. 
    Each message displays the number of Kudos that have been given to it, so looking at the Kudos count is one way that forum users can identify particularly useful messages.  Also note that the total number of Kudos given in to all messages in a thread appears when you select a message board and view its list of threads. 
    To add your Kudos to a message, click on the red partial-star Kudos image to the left of each message.
    Accepted Solutions
    Many threads will be all about describing and finding solutions for various types of problems that people encounter when using their computers and consumer electronics gear.  The 'Accepted Solutions' feature provides a method for forum members who start threads to indicate when a reply has supplied a solution to the problem that had been experienced.  Each thread can have only one Accepted Solution and only the thread originator (and forum admin staff) can designate a message as an Accepted Solution for the thread.
    Messages selected as Accepted Solutions will have a graphical badge indicating that status, and the original message in the thread will include a link to jump down to the Accepted Solution.
    The Tags, Kudos, and Accepted Solutions features are provided to help forum users find the best of the best information here in the forums.  Please use them as often as you find appropriate.

  • Cant Lightroom be used as standalone, or must I use the unsafe cloud solution?

    Cant Lightroom be used as standalone, or must I use the unsafe cloud solution?

    the stand-alone version is the same software as comes from the cloud - you can verify the MD5/SHA checksums if you don't believe me.
    it may be worth elaborating what it is you are concerned about (I'm not familiar with the safety issue that Adobe has "shown us before").
    But regardless, Lightroom is available "stand-alone" and will be "indefinitely" so no reason to fret, yet..

  • Get native file in ucm (ucm and terastack solution working together)

    Hi,
    We use oracle universal content management server (ucm). A lot of files are stored on the hard disk of the system using this content management system. Now we are using Terastack Solution (http://www.hie-electronics.com/) to create backup of the data. The TeraStack Solution is an optical data storage system designed and manufactured to improve performance through affordable and reliable data storage management. Terastack solution archives (writes) all files to dvds and then a module of it truncates all these files to zero byte in size to save disk space. Now terastack solution watches all archived files. If an application tries to open such a file, it intercepts this, blocks this request, then restores the file from the dvd. During this process calling application just waits for the file to open. After restoring terastack solution sends a signal to the calling application, and the file with full contents is opened in the application.
    Now here is the problem:
    Files are check-in oracle content server. Terastack solution has burned these files to dvd and made these files to zero byte in size. Now when we click a link in content server to get a checked-in file (native file), terastack solution intercepts it, restore the file from dvd, then an open/save dialog box open to either open or save the file to a location. We save the file to a folder, open this file and come to know that there is no content in the file. It is still a zero byte file.
    When we checked the file at original location (remember ucm stores files in vault folder), we came to know that file is actually restored successfully by the terastack solution but the content server returned a zero byte file. When we click the link for the same file again to get native file in ucm then we get a fully restored file. i.e. on the first try to get native file we get a zero byte file although it is restored by terastack solution successfully. And on the second try we get file with full contents. On the second try, file has already been restored by terastack solution during the first try and terastack solution ignores files greater than zero byte in size, that’s why client gets a correct file on second try. Having size greater than zero means file is already restored.
    The link in ucm that is used to get native file does not point directly to the desired file. It calls some code in ucm that transmit the required file back to the client. Something like this:
    http://localhost/idc/idcplg?IdcService=GET_FILE&dID=11&dDocName=test_06&allowInterrupt=1
    I think what is going on here is, when we click on a link to get native file that is zero byte in size, content server creates a response for the file, append the size of the file (currently zero) to the header of the response along with other info, and then tries to transmit the file to the client. At this point, terastack solution intercept the request and restore the file. After restoring terastack solution send signal to calling application that file is restored. But the server has already created request for the file and it is not updated during or after the restore, that’s why client gets zero byte file.
    What I want is somehow force the content server to wait until file is fully restored by terastack solution and then transmit the fully restored file to client. Is there any configuration setting for ucm that will achieve the goal?
    Any setting in bin/intradoc.cfg or config/config.cfg or something else?
    Need help.
    Environment:
    OS: Windows XP SP3
    Content Server 10gR3 (Deployed to: IIS, JDK used: v1.5)
    TeraStack Solution (Deployed to: JBoss)

    Thank you for your reply. Although the links to weblayout version of files works perfectly with terastack, but we want to take backup of files in vault folder. Is it possible to change the links that are use to get native file? Can we somehow make these links to directly point to vault files? If yes please tell us how.
    A custom java service to download the native file can also work. Can you please give us a sample code and how to implement it in ucm?
    Please provide one of the solutions. I’m a new comer to ucm, so please provide instructions in more details.
    BTW, I tested the restoration of file using a test dotnet web application. I added code that downloaded a user selected file to the client. The code we used is as under:
    1. FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(filepath);
    2. Response.Clear();
    3. Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fi.Name);
    4. Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", fi.Length.ToString());
    5. Response.ContentType = GetFileContentType(fi.Extension);
    6. Response.TransmitFile(fi.FullName);
    7. Response.End();
    GetFileContentType() function is a simple function to get content type of a file type.
    Line#4 is important here. A file is zero byte in size when a request to download a file is received by the server, and the server just appends content-length=0 in the header. So even the file is restored by the terastack afterwards, client still receives a zero byte file. At this stage our test application has the same problem, not getting a native file with full contents.
    We removed line# 4 and tried again to download a file thru our test web application. This time client got file with full contents after the file is restored. So we think this Content-Length header is the one that needs to be handled.
    You may find this information useful if you decide to build a java service solution.

  • HELP ASAP!! Lettered password tried first time, caused my ipod to be unrecognized by iTunes and only solution is restore, which I don't want to do!

         I put in a lettered passcode recently and now it won't work anymore and iTunes could not let me type in the password and only solution is to restore it. I really do NOT want to restore it at all because I highly value the info, saved pics and links, especially the music I saved which is only on my ipod, not anywhere else, not even my computer. I am a music person and I work and live for music, and recently I saw a new kind of passcode which can be lettered instead of a 4-digit passcode, so I went ahead with it, which made me comfortable. Until I realized as soon as I clicked the top button (which just put it to sleep or off) and when I click it on, it says it has to be plugged to iTunes. I thought I would have to get home to type in my lettered passcode to get in, which I did. But when I plugged it in, there's no password needed or anything like that. iTunes won't even recognize my iPod, and the solution is to restore it, which I refuse to do, because all my work is in this iPod of mine I've had since nearly 4 years now.
         PLEASE HELP ME ASAP!!!!!!! I can't live without music, I know it's hard to believe but it's true. Is there any other way I can get my iPod to work without having to restore it and lose everything I've worked for in it?? None of it is saved to any other computer or technogical device. Everything is in my iPod. Please help!! I am struggling each day without music, it's impossible, I miss music and I need to hear it, and the iPod is the only way for me to hear as of for now because I am deaf/hard-of-hearing and my hearing aids are broken, so I use the ipod everywhere I go to listen to music on my earphones/headphones, I can't carry my computer anyways, lol. Please may any of you help me solve this problem?? I will be eternally grateful! THANKS SO MUCH!!

    If you are unable to enter the passcode into your device, you will have to restore the device to circumvent that passcode.
    Is the music purchased from iTunes? If it is you can contact iTunes support and ask them to allow you to re-download the music that you purchased from iTunes.
    Also, do you sync the device regularly? When syncing an iPod Touch/iPhone a backup file is made. That backup file doesn't contain your music but it does contain your address book, application data, pictures, notes, etc. After restoring your device, you can try restoring from the last backup that was made of your device so you will not have to start over completely from scratch.
    Hope this helps!

  • Is there a relationship between InfoPath and the "Solution Approval" and "Solution Unpublish" timer jobs?

    One of our developers has a test SP 2010, service pack 2 system. Against it, he is testing form library InfoPath 2010 applications that he is developing.
    There are, over the 2 months he has been working, an increasing number of times that the machine becomes so slow as to be unusable. For instance, in his attempt to publish an updated form this morning, the publish time was about 2 hours.
    I see nothing obvious in the event log.
    However, in the 5.7 million line 14 hive log, there are 5.6 million lines of the form:
    Solution Deployment : Deleting directory C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\Template\Features\FT-01-6d499aed-f899-c88e-5f7e-8dad243ccaf1\solution.xsn.1.0.0.1018.1.0.0.735. Delete if not empty.   ae8f490c-f1bf-4f25-92aa-6fc8e0de7de5
    When I look in the Features subfolder, there are over 13k of folders containing a solutions.xsn and a DLL with the name of the application.
    These folders date back to when the work began.
    When I look at timer job history , all I see are status of Succeeded.
    But I do notice that every minute a series of 6 Solution Approval and 6 Solution Unpublish timer jobs run.
    Since the timer says to run every minute, I suspect that something is wrong with the jobs.
    This being a test machine, there is no reason to have 13k of old copies of the form and dll. He is not going back to one of those as far as I am aware.
    Is there some action that he should be taking that should be "cleaning up" this situation?
    Is there something that a SP admin could do to clean things up so that things no longer take so long to run and create such large log files?
    Thanks for your ideas.

    Also, where did you happen to purchase it from?

  • How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    How can I import all my gmail contacts into iPad? I use iPad mini and the solutions available on the web are not compatible.

    Hello and thanks for the answer.
    I meant by "not compatible" that all the solutions that I found on the web did not work, especially the "Microsoft exchange" one.
    Fortunately I found on the comments of the first website you mentioned the right answer for me, which I copy below:
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add CardDav Account.
    Enter the following information in the fields:
    Server: google.com
    User Name: Enter your full Google email address
    Password: Your Google account password
    Select Next at the top of the screen to complete the setup.
    After you have completed the setup, open the Contacts app on your device. Syncing should begin automatically.
    Additional Information
    Note: Make sure that SSL is enabled (under Advanced settings), and that the port is 443.
    If you are using application based special password go to https://accounts.google.com/Se... and instead of your password put that special code and u r done.

  • Hello hi, i just won't to ask, if there has been any changes on how to find a stolen phone, did some one come up with a fare and good solution. as it is not fare at all when some one could use it for free and there is a lot of things could be done to this

    hello hi, i just won't to ask, if there has been any changes on how to find a stolen phone, did some one come up with a fare and good solution, new Apps. as it is not fare at all when some one could use it for free and there is a lot of things could be done to this condition, no one seem to care,
    i have a story about my sister, am talking on her behalf, she got stolen her phone at a caffee when she just come from a horeble exam, she was very mad and having haedace for not doing well at the exam, i ask her if we could have coffee before we go home, once she sate; while i was getting the coffee for her, some one snicked to her pocket and took the phone, immidatly she feelt it and went on to searching, but nathing was hopefull. what makes it more heart braking is that she worked day and night just to buy the phone and pay for her books and so on as a student. she use to work 16 houres a day before she had to start school. 8 houres in one place and then to the other place. and she was always demanding for more houres to work; one day her boss saw her on her other job and she was serprised to see her and saied OHhh my God Milly if you work like this, i wonder if you servive, how could you also ask for more houres, My sis had to do it she has no parents or any thing, well the phone was taken after only two months of having it. the sad thing is she stile dream having it even though she can't think of buying againe. well me i have tryed a lot of things but i know some were out there there is a solution for people like this, it is not always fare for some one who has payed up to 800 to just loose his ......  
    Thnks

    I'm sorry, but your sister, unless she had already turned on the "Find my iPhone" feature and the person who took the phone has not disabled it, is out of luck. She should report the theft to local police authorities, including the serial number of her iPhone. While her experience is unfortunate, there are good reasons why Apple cannot do anything else about it.
    I hope she gets her phone back.
    Best of luck.

  • I want to find any backup and recovery solution for SharePoint server 2013 enterprise

    Dear Expertise,
    Recent set up SharePoint server 2013 Enterprise, and looking for backup and recovery solution, does the built in Windows Backup can handle it, and how?
    KF

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to know some backup and restore solution for SharePoint 2013.
    There are two Technet articles about the backup and restore, you can have a look at them.

    You can also use some third-part software tools to achieve the same scenario.
