SCCM Application & Package deployment-Using the Required option to speed up the deployment process

Current Environment-Window server 2012, SCCM 2012
Question:
Is there a way to speed up the process for the application or package to get downloaded to the SCCM Cache folder on the computer using the Required option. The reason is that when ever i use the required option and use the time as UTC or client local time
with As soon as Possible, the time for the package to download and install by itself would take atleast an hour.When i use the Available option and go to configuration manager and click on the machine & user retrieval policy, the application or package
appears on the system center within seconds, but it dosent happen the same when i use the Required option. The polling schedule is currently set to 5 minutes.Is there any settings or time interval which needs to be changed or i am missing out to speed up the
current Required option process.

Content is not ever downloaded by the client for available deployments until you actually initiate the deployment so not sure what you are expecting.
I think you are confusing some of the basic concepts here also. When Torsten and I say download, it means the download of the content associated with the package/application once the deployment starts. However, a client learns of new deployments (and things
about those deployments like if they are required or not) by retrieving the policy -- this is not the "download". Policy retrieval happens on the cycle specified in the client settings and is by default every 60 minutes although this can be force in a few
different ways including initiating a machine policy retrieval and eval cycle o the client. As Torsten also said, there's no difference between the policy retrieval for required or available deployments -- there's no way for these to be.
Also, why would you use UTC?

Deploying LightSwitch applications to IIS using the Oracle Entity Framework

I have had no sucess running Lightswitch applications on IIS using the Oracle Beta entity framework. Applications work fine from visual studio but after deployment fail when I trying to access an Oracle data entity.
I have tried deploying to a 2008 V2 server 64Bit running IIS7.5 and also to a 32 bit windows 7 machine running IIS7. Both machines had the entity framework installed and I could connect to Oracle with SQL developer just fine. Briefly in the case of the 64 bit machine I get a bad image exception indicating a 64/32 bit conflict. (App pool switched to allow 32bit). The problem with the 32Bit machine is that the session either hangs or dies with an [Arg_TargetInvocationException]
In all tests apps could connect to SQL server fine but as soon as I use an Oracle connection they fail. It would very helpfull if someone could confirm that they have managed to use the Entity framework Beta with Lightswitch and IIS.
Thanks in advance

Both hosts working now. Initially I created a service account for the aspnet service with extended rights and assigned this to the application pool. This subsequentluy turned out not to be required - ApplicationPoolIdentity works fine. What worked was as follows:
1. On a 64 Bit host you need to set the application pool to Enable 32 Bit Applications (Right click the relevant app pool in IIS and select advanced)
2. Switch off windows authentication for the application (leaving just anonoymous authentication) This was required on both hosts
3. On the 32 Bit host copy tnsnames to the oracle client admin folder - the framework seems to ignore theTNS_ADMIN environment variable. Probably more to this but its working for now.

Great exercise to document the problem like this. It got me thinking about how an app with modules would be different from an app that does not use modules. Solution: I moved the dummy reference of PersonPhotoView out to the main application file (as opposed to being inside the module) and it worked. I've probably been lucky not to have experienced this problem earlier, because for most other entities I have an instance attached to my model which is linked / compiled with the main application.

Hi Andi,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes, I have waited for a while and the result doesn't change.
The Porblem here is the application is seen started in visual administrator.Only restart brings up the page back.
Can you please suggest anything.

"security" application package to CLEAN the widely "known" Malicious code?

Professionally & Personally - I use, make, and Read many PDF files daily [reports, documents, & books]; I have many "many" thousands of PDF documents in my Archives.
A. Background:
1.    I have heard, since Acrobat 5, many security specialist have deemed JAVA as a THREAT; and PDF as a security concern! Recently Reported Home Land Security has deemed JAVA as an on-going "continuing high threat", in spite of se7u11; reported that DHLS expressed that 28% of reported ATTACKS were from Adobe Acrobat PDF files embedded user malicious software code [ever growing numbers of attacks]. <PDF security is a major growing DOD concern!>
2.    To my great surprise from "IT" professional who disabled JAVA in his Department's systems, the current Security Software and specific program updates offer no real solution or resolutions to this ongoing security problem. I understood that Virus and Trojan Checkers do not check malicious software code hidden inside PDF files, and software updates do not remove or make safe the malicious software code in the actual PDF – thus it remains a potentially very DISTRUCTIVE-DATA-BOMB just setting in your databases awaiting to be activated at some future date.
3.    "This is very tedious and time consuming!" I have since disabled JAVA in my Adobe Acrobat and run each PDF through "PDF OPTIMIZER" - Discarding all User Data, User Objects, and especially User JAVA Codes – and disable my LAN internet connection -- before utilizing it. I don’t know if this is of any good or not – but I feel safer.
B. PROBLEMS & QUESTIONS (I’ve given each question its own string to assist with preventing confusion)!
4.    CLEAN OLD FILES! Has Abode Acrobat issued stand alone "security" application package to CLEAN the widely "known" Malicious code or attack internet sites from PDF files? I was informed that Security Software doesn't perform this specific function inside PDF files. Does Adobe have a similar Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool? What is Adobe's solution?

Hello George Johnson
I do so appreciate your assistance…
Although I have used in business and own computers since the 1970’s [built one myself from a kit in 79], I’ve not had to concern myself with programming since, DOS, Lotus/IBM/Apple Basic and COBAL --- especially after XP release I gave up even trying to figure what each does. I did not mean to offend as to which specific JAVA version and/or product is the problem, since I personally have no CLUE – and today totally depend upon goodwill of smart guys like you.
Specifically why recently DHLS [IT security folks and DOD for many years] is saying that Malicious Software code in PDF files is such a big threat and responsible for 28% of the systems attacks I do not know the technicalities or reasoning of these assertions – except it had something to do with JAVA CODE/JavaScript[?] contained inside the actual PDF which virus software doesn’t detect or destroy? I do not know if it is the Additional CODE placed inside the PDF by the bad actor and/or the changing of actual Adobe Program Code is the problem? I may be chasing may tail!
My biggest concern for many years into the future -- is protecting my very large PDA database/Archive, multiple Systems, my personal information, and to try to the best of my ability to not pass PDF having within it Malicious Software CODE [JAVA CODE/JavaScript?] put into it by a bad actor.
Since my PDF database Archives [and back-ups] is many terabytes – it is impossible to “import” each PDF into Acrobat and run PDF Optimizer (removing Adobe known user placed codes and data) – as I am doing now – much less trying to figure out what else I should check for within the PDF file or the ever increasing updates, changes, versions of plugging the hole in the dikes…..
So George, back to my question, Has Abode Acrobat issued stand alone "security" application package to CLEAN the widely "known" Malicious code or attack internet sites from PDF files? [You know 28% DHLS & DOD is talking about.] I was informed that Security Software doesn't perform this specific function inside PDF files. Does Adobe have a similar Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool? What is Adobe's solution?
Thank you so very much for your knowledge, help, and interest.

I have two apple id accounts ,when i used to update application it used to prompt a default id and if the application was downloaded using the other id i would cancel and it would prompt the other id but not any more .

i have two apple id accounts ,when i used to update application it used to prompt a default id (the old one) and if the application was downloaded using the other id i would cancel and it would prompt the other id but not any more .
it just prompt the old id which im not signed in with im signed in using the new id and when i cancel nothing happens and when i try to update applications separately i have the same problem .
im signed in using the new id
the old one is my wife's so i can't delete it
the problem happens when i update all or each application by its own
using ios 5.0.1 on a iphone 3gs
the applications are downloaded using both the new and old id's
any help will be greatly appreciatedِ

These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here and they don't monitor these forums - I've asked the hosts to remove yout account ids from your post.
In terms of combining accounts it's not currently possible to do so, nor to copy/transfer content from account to another.

It's a problem with the browser.
Please try the following possiblities:
- use a different browser or at least a different IE-Version
- restart the problems (helped me several times)
- try comptability view in IE

How to determine which locale uses the specific process

Hi,
I would like to get to know which locale uses the specific process.
I mean that when the process starts it should use the current system locale.
Where I can check that information which locale are used by the running process?
I ask because I would like to make sure that for example when the locale are French or Japanese the process/deamon use the current locale.
Kind regards,
Daniel

Hi,
currently we are in the process of consolidating our databases. One of the neccessary steps is to figure out which user connects to the database at all. That's easy, we implemented a logon-trigger and log the collected information into a separate table.It could have been even easier by turning on the built-in audit feature.
If a user with objects (e.g. tables, views, procedures) exists - but this user never connects to the database - does that automatically mean that these objects are not used at all? No need to say that this is not true. But how can we figure out if a connected user has selected an object of this user?audit would be a good choice.
Our porblem is that we have alot of schemas in our database - but the developers don't know if this schema is not used by an application or not (sad but true).Not sure what developer will do with used/not used application.
To enable auditing would be one choice to figure out if an object was ever used or not. What's wrong in auditing ?
Even though audit may have a footprint on performance, that would probably be less costly than any custom solution.

Can anyone tell me the how to use the "ducking" process in Logic Pro 8?

Howdy,
I've tried following the directions in the manual but I just can figure out the steps necessary to use the ducking process in Logic 8. For those who aren't sure what ducking is it's for instance, when you want a guitar track's volume to be reduced when a vocal track is active. As an example, there is a way to trigger the volume reduction in the guitar track(s) using a compressor in the vocal track. Whenever the singer is singing it automatically reduces the volume in the guitar track. I'm just not sure how to do this. Any help with the steps involved would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark

Well, the theory is you run say, the mix , through the 'ducker' or as I like to call it, the 'motherducker', then you simply sidechain say, a kick drum. That is to say, you route your kick to a bus or aux channel, preferably routed to a different output, then assign that bus or aux as your sidechain input in the ducker. The theory is that the through signal will duck on receipt of the sidechained kick.
Frustratingly, this ducker is the buggiest thing since a bug landed on a buggy while loading it into the back of a VW bug. It just doesn't work. well it works for a bit and then stops working. Or the kick comes through the ducker as well. Or some other manifestation of complete crapness. Come on Apple, sort it out - it's the sound that everybody wants!
Sorry Mark L1

To use the transformation process I hear you have to code using OOP, True?

I've heard that to use the transformation process all update rules, routines must be writtend with OOP and you can't use the older coding method. Is this true

Prefferably Yes Routines hav to be migrated accordingly to OO ABAP.

Application package deployment

Hi there,
I have created a application package in sccm 2012. I would like it to be visible and available for support technician (ie helpdesk) so they can install it for users when needed. Can someone guide me how to accomplish it please?
Thanks

Can the available applications to be listed so helpdesk can deploy them when end user wants it? I don't want to use end user interaction yet. Can this be done in software center page? I think I've seen it before. I am working for a small company there users
are senior citizens. Thanks.
If you "deploy" the application with a "purpose" of "Available", to a device collection, and, you configure the deployment settings on the "User Experience" tab so that it doesn't generate notifications, this application
deployment would quietly reside in Software Center, waiting for the user to initiate it. This could be done by your helpdesk team, either physically at the computer (the helpdesk person simply launches Software Center when at the pc), or, helpdesk can remote-control
or remote-assist the pc/user and do it for them.
Is this what you mean?
Alternatively, deploy the application (with purpose-Required) to a collection, then, when the end-user needs that application, the helpdesk would use the ConfigMgr console to add the device into the relevant device collection. The application will then
deploy when the collection is evaluated and the client performs policy retrieval.
It really depends upon what your "helpdesk" service consists of - is it desk-side physical attendance?
Remote-control or remote-assist?
Does the end-user have to interact with the application deployment or is the application deployment "silent/unattended"?
(these are things we don't know about your scenario :)
There are many, many ways to deploy software with ConfigMgr - it depends on your scenario and your experience and (often) also the nature of the application software itself.

To know which application is actually using the listner port 1521

hello every one,
i have a small problem out here.
i have a test server(solaris)..have already installed development suite 10g on it as well as installed weblogic on it.
right now according to requirement i have to install application server 10g on it for load balancing.
but while installing i got an error that states as follows "install has detected that port 1521 on your host is currentlybeing used by other product....."
i have not installed any database in this server..
Tried to find out whether 1521 port is actually listening using the below command
netstat -an|grep 1521
*.1521 *.* 0 0 49152 0 LISTEN
now i want answer for few questions
a)does weblogic has metadata repository like oracle 10g AS and does it listen 2 1521 port..(according to my knowledge it listens to 5556 port)are there any file like portlink.ini in weblogic as 10gAs??(these questions might be sounding lame but i m new to web logic)
b)i just wanted to know which application in my current scenario is using the port 1521 so that i can stop the services n den install oracle AS and once the installation is done i can restart the other application by changin its port no,so dat it can listen to other port..
c)Consider this scenario "If i dont stop any oracle application ie d2k and weblogic" and start installation..during installation itself can i make my application listen to some other port like 1522"..i have heard about staticport.ini but have not practically used so can u'all help me in this..
if there are any other solution about how to go about installation with out stoppin any oracle services then please let me know..
thanking you,
Regards

Hello Fabian,
You can use lsof to find out which process has allocated port 1521 :
lsof -i TCP:1521
Most likely it is a TNS listener process.
Thanks,

"No enought room on startup disk for Application Memory" when using the Accelerate Framework

Dear colleagues,
I am running what I know is a large problem for a scientific application (tochnog) a finite element solver that runs from the Terminal. The application tries to solve 1,320,000 simultaneous linear equations. The problem starts when I use the Accelerate Framework as the Virtual Memory size jumps from 142 G to about 576 G after the library (LAPACK) is called to solve the system.It does not do it if I use a solver that does not calls LAPACK inside Accelerate.
The machine is a mac pro desktop with 8 GB of ram, the 2.66 GHz Quad-core Intel and the standard 640 GB hard drive. The system tells me that I have 487 GB available on hard drive.
The top instruction in Terminal reads VM 129G vsize when starting. When I run the finite element application once the LAPACK library in the Accelerate framework gets called, the Virtual Memory (VM) jumps to 563 G vsize.
After a short while, I get the "No enought room on startup disk for Application Memory error"
This is a screen capture of the application attempting to solve the problem using the LAPACK library inside the Accelerate framework: Here are the numbers as reported by the activity Monitor.
Tochnog Real Memory 6.68 GB
System Memory Free: 33.8 MB, Wired 378.8 MB, Active 5.06 GB, Inactive 2.53 GB, Used 7.96 GB.
VM size 567.52 GB, Page ins 270.8 MB, Page outs 108.2 MB, Swap used 505 MB
This is a screen copy of the same application solving the same problemwithout using the Accelerate framework.
Tochnog Real Memory 1.96 GB,
System Memory Free: 4.52 MB, Wired 382.1 MB, Active 2.69 GB, Inactive 416.2 GB, Used 3.47 GB.
VM size 148.60 GB, Page ins 288.8 MB, Page outs 108.2 MB, Swap used 2.5 MB
I can not understand the disparity in the behavior for the same case. As I said before, the only difference is the use of Accelerate in the first case. Also, as you can see, I thought that 8 GB of ram memory was a lot.
Your help will be greatly appreciated
Best regards,
F Lorenzo

The OP had posted this question in the iMac Intel forum.
I replied along similar lines, but suggested he repost this in the SL forum where I know there are usually several people who have a far better grasp of these issues than I.
I would be interested in getting their take on this.
Although, I think you are coming to the correct conclusion that there are not enough resources available for this process, I'm not certain that what you are saying on the way to that conclusion is correct. My understanding of VM is that it is the total theoretical demand on memory a process might make. It is not necessarily the actual or real world demand being made.
As such, this process is not actually demanding 568GB (rounded.) As evidence of that, you can see there is still memory available, albeit quite small, in the form of free memory of 33.8MB and inactive of 2.53GB (the GB for that figure, above, seems like it might be a typo, since for the process when not using Accelerate the reported figure for inactive was 416.2 GB -- surely impossible) and 7.96GB used. The process, itself, is using 6.68GB real memory.
In addition, I question whether the OP has misstated the 487GB free drive space. I think that might be the total drive capacity, not the free space.
My guess is that it is the combination of low available memory and low free drive space prompting this error.
From Dr. Smoke on VM:
it is possible that swap files could grow to the point where all free space on your disk is consumed by them. This can happen if you are very low on both RAM and free disk space.

This gets more to the actual intent of your question...
EDIT: Looks like some kind of glitch right now getting to the Dr. Smoke post.
