Server 2012 R2 and DPM 2012 (ocsetup not recognized)

I am trying to install DPM 2012 on Server 2012 R2 and unalbe to get past prerequisties check.  When I try the command "OCSetup.exe SIS-Limited"  it comes up that OCSetup is not recognized.  How do I install (SIS) on Server 2012 R2?

Hi.
DPM 2012 SP1 is not supported running on Windows 2012 R2.  Please decide on one of the following.
A) Install DPM 2012 R2 on the Windows Server 2012 R2 or other
supported operating systems.
B) Install DPM 2012 SP1 on Windows Server 2012 or other
supported operating systems.
FYI for Windows server 2012 R2 the new command is:
dism /online /enable-feature:SIS-Limited

  • Windows Server 2012 Essentials (not R2) - all client computers offline

    The server is Windows Server 2012 Essentials (not R2). I have had this problem ever since I first installed the Windows Server 2012 Essentials server in the summer of 2013 (before R2 was released). The Windows Server 2012 Essentials server shows offline
    for all Devices under Dashboard. (Allow me to add that I just installed another site with Windows Server 2012 Essentials R2, and it was a breeze - all of the computers at the second install site are online.) I have one Windows 8.1 Pro client and the rest
    are Windows 7 Pro clients. The problem occurs on ALL client computers.
    I have removed computers from Devices in Dashboard on the server, rebooted the server, changed the client computer to a workgroup, rebooted the client computer, and reinstalled the connector software on the client computer. Same result. I
    have tried this on a Windows 7 Pro client and a Windows 8.1 Pro client with the same results.
    After running the connector on a client computer and waiting for the server to update its Devices status, if I look under Devices on the server Dashboard, the Windows 8.1 client computer will say online but within 24 hours it goes offline again. The
    Windows 7 client computers never show online. Both computers stay offline - they NEVER show an online status (referring to the status under Devices in Dashboard).
    I should make it clear that the clients can access the server shares with no problem. File synchronization works great. The clients can ping the server and the server can ping the clients. But client backups on the server fail.
    One of the most troublesome things about this problem is that it prevents the client computers from being accessed remotely using the website setup by Anywhere Access. I can login to get remote access to the shared files on the server, but
    the only computer that says "online" is the server. All of the other computers are "offline".
    The server and clients are only using Windows firewall. The clients all use Microsoft Security Essentials for their anti-virus.
    I used a troubleshooting tool that tells me that there are problems with port 6602 on the server, but the clients are all fine with port 6602. I know port 6602 is important for using Anywhere Access but I am still trying to find out more details on that.
    I have checked all of the firewall settings related to port 6602 on the server, and the firewall settings look like the standard Windows settings for this port. I used netstat to find the PID associated with the port, and I looked up the PID to find the service.
    That all looked standard, too.
    I have been working on this problem since the summer of 2013!! Does anyone have ANY suggestions?!!
    HELP!

    Hi,
    Just addition, please check if all necessary Windows updates are installed on those
    “Offline” client computer.
    When connect client computers to the Windows Server 2012 Essentials server by using the Connector software, there
    will be LAUNCHPAD on the client computer. Was this LAUNCHPAD grayed out? Please check if can access Shared Folders via this LAUNCHPAD. Meanwhile, please ping the Windows Server 2012 Essentials via IP address and server name when client computers show as
    Offline. Any find?
    Get Connected in Windows Server Essentials
    In addition, please follow the path on Server and client computer:
    %programdata%\Microsoft\Windows Server\Logs. Did you check any relevant Server-side logs and
    Client-side Logs if find more clues?
    Windows
    Server Essentials 2012/2012 R2 Log Files
    If any update, please feel free to let us know.
    Hope this helps.

  • I'm running V10.6.8 and the system is not recognizing a San Disc adapter that I plug into the side of the keyboard. This always worked in the past. Whats changed?

    I'm running V10.6.8 and the system is not recognizing the presence of a San Disc (SDHC) adapter that I plug into the left side of the keyboard. This always worked in the past. Whats changed? I can't upload my images to a folder.

    Another item I'd found when getting an SD card for an older camera was the lack of backward support from the SD card if it was too new, while a newer camera can sometimes use an older SD card at a slower read-write speed. There are limits and ceilings on what kind of card works with old/new stuff.
    So I ended up taking a nice SD card back to one store and had to settle on a 'walmart kinda dubious kingston two pack a cure' for the older Panasonic Lumix. Smaller capacity but seems to work OK for the era. I don't trust kingston with macs, but this 10 y/o Lumix seems to not care about that.
    Hopefully you can obtain the correct cards, because some stores only sell parts for their inventory of cameras. And some adapters are limited too.
    Depending on what I'm doing with the card and the camera it goes with, I attach the camera to the computer and not just the card in a reader. That way I can file items inside the camera SD card in a way the camera won't overwrite them. Later when I save everything from the card into an external hard disk drive, all my filed folders of images by date (I created in the SD) appear in order, in the later archive. Easier too, when I burn to DVD or CD media, to create yet another archive away from the computer or the camera.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Windows 8 and Server 2012. Not detecting network is a domain.

    Hi Guys,
    I hope I have posted this to the correct forum.
    I have 2 x Windows 8 PCs that do not detect that they are connected to a domain (network location awareness not working). I can join them to the domain but they still don't recognise the network as a domain. Instead they identify it as "private".
    Other PCs on the network (Win XP and Win 7) work prefectly, just the windows 8 machines don't work.
    Also, when I do join them to domain I also receive this message.
    "changing the Primary Domain DNS name of this computer to "" failed. The name will remain xxxx.local. The error was: the specified domain either does not exist or could not be contacted. "
    I have tried the following
     - DHCP and DNS has being tried both as static and dynamic (can ping DNS server which is the domain controller Windows Server 2012) .
     - Updated PC NIC drivers.
     - No AV is installed on either server or PC.
     - Updated PC to windows 8.1.
     - Disabled both server and PC firewalls.
     - Check NLA service and all dependent services are running.
     - Disabled all adapters on server except for one.
    I am really hoping someone can help with this as I would really appreciate it.
    Thanks.

    Hi Guys,
    I managed to find a solution to the problem. I noticed that the DNS server zones did not look quite right. The _msdcs zone was missing the subfolders (dc, domains, gc, pdc).
    To fix this issue: on the NIC adapter I had to tick the box "register this connection's addresses in DNS" (found under TCP/IP v4 > advanced > DNS tab).
    I then had to remove the DNS role, reboot then re-add the role. Problem solved. Hopefully this saves someone else pulling their hair out for an entire day.

  • Server 2012 std not able to see Domain, DC and DNS on Win SBS 2008 std Domain

    Hi There
    I have a HP ML 110 G5 SBS 2008 std server as my DC on my network. I recently added a HP Microserver running Server 2012 std (with no roles or features installed) to act solely as a file server for a 3rd party program as the program was not running efficiently
    on the main server.
    The problem I am having now is that the 2012 server keeps falling off the domain and cannot contact DNS server. I have also had to re-enable remote desktop several times. It also shows the 2012 Server as being on a private firewall profile and not on the
    domain firewall profile but I suspect that this is part of the same problem. 
    the resulting problem that this is causing is that the local machines that need to contact an SQL database on the 2012 fileserver intermittently either time out or are very slow to connect.  
    So far I have tried: 
    Switching from Static IP to DHCP. 
    Re-adding the server to the domain. 
    Stopping and restarting DNS services on the DC.
    Checking physical Network connections and routing.
    Putting the 2012 server into the same Organizational Unit as the 2008 DC. 
    Has anyone else encountered this problem when adding a 2012 server to a 2008 domain?  I have a feeling that the solution is probably something simple that I've overlooked, but I can't think what.  Any help would be greatly appreciated. 
    Regards
    Russ

  • Set up Search Service App For SharePoint server 2013 on Windows server 2012 R2 not working

    Hi all,
    I installed SharePoint server 2013 on Windows  server 2012 R2 using VirtualBox.  I created a DC(domain controller) server with a domain set up on one VM and it has SQL server 2012 SP1 installed. Then SharePoint 2013 on another VM was set up to access
    the DC server.  Everything seems working except Search Service App which cannot be sucessfully set up. Creation process for Search service app says Successful and 4 search databases were created and look fine. But when I navigate to search service app
    admin page, it gives error info:

    Since separate DC server and SharePoint server do not work, I installed SharePoint 2013 on DC server ( so DC server has everything on it now ) but it gives exactly same result. Later I installed SharePoint 2013 SP1 and still have the same problem with Search
    Service app. I spent two weeks tried all suggestions available from Web and Google but SharePoint Search Service simply does not work. Config and other databases work but why Search Service has this issue seemingly related to search DB.
    Could anybody please help out? You deserve a top SharePoint consultant award if you could find a solution. I am so frustrated and so tired by this issue.    This seems also to be a SP set up issue.
    Thanks a lot.

    Using new Search Service App wizard to create SSA is always a success. I could delete existing SSA and recreate it and no problem. It says successful but when I open Search Admin page from CA, it gives me errors as mentioned.

    Since separate DC server and SharePoint server do not work, I installed SharePoint 2013 on DC server ( so DC server has everything on it now ) but it gives exactly same result. Later I installed SharePoint 2013 SP1 and still have the same problem
    with Search Service app. I spent two weeks tried all suggestions available from Web and Google but SharePoint Search Service simply does not work. Config and other databases work but why Search Service has this issue seemingly related to search DB.
    Could anybody please help out? You deserve a top SharePoint consultant award if you could find a solution. I am so frustrated and so tired by this issue.    
    Thanks a lot.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that  SharePoint server 2013 Search Service App did not work on Windows server 2012 R2.
    Please make sure you configure Search Service Application correctly. You can refer to:Create and configure a Search service application in SharePoint Server 2013
    I recommend to created new Search Service Application, and made a full crawl. Then assigned the new SSA as the default SSA for webapplications. Finnlay checked  the issue doesnt occur now,
    If all search related components now are online, to keep the enviroonment clean, you can delete the old SSA.
    Thank you for your understanding.
    Best Regards,

  • Windows storage server 2012 share not connecting by share name but connecting thru IP address from windows XP machines

    We have a windows storage server 2012 (HP storage server) in our domain. All of sudden We had a issue, connecting the server shares using the share name only from XP machines, but it is connecting through IP address with a delayed response. We are getting
    the below error message from all the windows XP SP2 machines in our domain.
    "\\<share name> is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have a access permissions.
    Login Failure: The target account name is incorrect."
    But it is connecting while we are trying from windows 7 machines.  Also the other server shares (Windows 2003 server) are connecting without any issues using the share name. In addition to this we gave everyone permission for this share. And it worked
    well before but not now. Could you please suggest any solution for this complex issue?
    Thanks,
