Set a delay for automatic shutdown of virtual machines

Hallo,
is there a way to set a delay for the automatic shutdown of the guests when the host is shutting down? Just like the automatic startup delay but for the shutdown. The simplest possibility would be to shutdown the guest in the opposite of the startup delay.
I want to shutdown the Exchange Server first and then the rest - the virtual Domain Controller should be shutdown as the last server.

Hi,
Additional, please notice the guest 5 minutes delay shutdown issue, more detail please refer the following article:

Is there a way to to set up safari for automatic private browsing?

Without having to select it from the safari tab each time you launch the app.?
Automatically.

Is there a way to to set up safari for automatic private browsing... Without having to select it from the safari tab each time you launch the app.?
Here's one option...
Follow these steps to ensure that Private Browsing is turned on automatically each time Safari launches:
1) Under System Preferences > Universal Access, check "Enable access for assistive devices."
2) Copy the code below and paste it into your AppleScript Script Editor, located in your Applications > AppleScript folder:
*activate application "Safari"*
*tell application "System Events"*
*tell process "Safari"*
*click menu item "Private Browsing…" of menu 1 of menu bar item "Safari" of menu bar 1*
*if exists button "OK" of window 1 then*
*click button "OK" of window 1*
*end if*
*end tell*
*end tell*
From the Script Editor's File menu choose Save As > File Format: application, and leave the Options unchecked. Place the saved script in your User > Library > Scripts folder, or in some other out-of-the-way place on your hard drive.
3) Download and install Do Something When. Set up a new rule with Do Something When and configure it to open the newly saved AppleScript app when Safari launches.
Works for me, using Mac OS 10.4.11.
Best regards... Good luck.

How is the performance of Mac Pro if i use it as host for windows and linux virtual machines.

How is the performance of Mac Pro if i use it as host for windows and linux virtual machines.
I am planning to buy a high performance PC to run my Windows and Linux servers as vitrual machines for my testing purposes.
Initially i planned to build my own computer with recommended configurations but considering space constaints and cooling factors i think Mac Pro can be a choice. But need some inputs if Mac pro (Intel Xeon E5, 12 GB RAM) is good for running virtual Machines.

You could even run Windows natively and still run your VM servers.
I have seen reports and such on MacRumors and elsewhere - run Windows natively as well as VMs (can also do testing and run Mavericks in a VM under Mavericks)
The fast internal PCIe-SSD, plus 6 or 8 cores, and 32-64GB RAM. Of course for $5,000 for 8-core, some Thunderbolt storage and 32GB/64GB RAM you can buy some serious hardware.

Where to set payment method for automatic payment F110 ?

hello everyone
I need some help.
user want to use payment method M(manual check) to pay by automatic payment F110.
but when use f110 no transaction for that vendor (that vendor using manual check).
where to config payment method for automatic payment F110

hello everyone
Hi ,
APP program runs- on payment method please make setting for your payment method "M" in FBZP.
Like Payment method for Country (OBVCU) & company code (OBVU)
Make sure that you have assigned payment method (M) bank ranking & subaccount.
Assign the payment method to vendor master data & invoice.
After that check the invoice comes under your payment dates
Hope after that if you run F110 picks up the open items
Thank you

Automatic Scheduling of Virtual Machine Shutdowns and Start-ups

Is there a scheduler available to Shutdown and Start-up Azure Virtual Machines?

Hi,
Based on my experience, if you shut down the VM within the RDP session, the VM would be in the stopped status and you will still pay for it.
Do you want to stop it to the stopped(deallocated) status to save money? If yes, you can create schedule tasks with Azure PowerShell cmdlets on your local computer.
Start-AzureVM -ServiceName xxx -Name xxx
Stop-AzureVM -ServiceName xxx -Name xxx (VMs would be in the stopped(dealloacted) status)
Stop-AzureVM -ServiceName xxx -Name xxx -StayProvisioned (VMs would be in the stopped status)
Please note that if all the VM in a cloud service are in the stopped(deallocated) status, the public IP address would be changed next time you start a VM.

Question on potential configurations for resource cluster as virtual machine server / beowulf / render farm

I am looking for a starting point on where to focus my efforts in researching a desired configuration. Of course anyone who spends anytime researching in forums knows that one thing that people hate is for people
to ask questions that can be easily answered with a simple Google search, so let me start by saying I have done many hours of research on this already. The problem I am having is that although there is a huge amount of information out there on what I
am looking to do, I don't believe many people have attempted this on as small of a scale as a single user system. Also, the amount of routes to go down seems endless, which for me so far has led to many hours of wasted trial and error. So keep
in mind that I am not so much looking for a handout on answers but rather a more narrowed path of searching and researching.
What I am looking to do is take the current equipment that I have and consolidate it into a 9-12U server rack using mounted 2 or 3U atx cases so that I can have a more organized, space saving setup. That is the
easy part, what I have been looking into though is the combining of cores and processing power to make a "super computer" yet I use this term very loosely. From what I have read, the closest thing I can compare the idea in my head to is referred
to as a Beowulf Cluster, or a Render farm but I believe as the name suggests that this is more dedicated to a single task of rendering. I like the idea of a virtual machine server where I would never actually locally use this machine but rather set up
many virtual machines that I can remote into. I started to compile a ProxMox Server, and this was the right idea, however when running a VM, that VM is constrained to the hardware resources of the single node that it is assigned to. If there is
a way to be able to have a machine that would utilize the 20 some odd cores that I would have in the cluster, along with the 40-50 gigs of ram, well that would be ideal but sounds too good to be possible. Also, ProxMox isnt quite there in compatibility for
a home/home office user. I understand that the programs that are used have to be written in a way where the architecture allows for such, but if it could even be used for speeding up my render time with Adobe and Autodesk (which I know do have such functionality)
that would be wonderful.
So without writing a whole book I am looking for suggestions on how to proceed. Can I literally build a "super computer" that is not really that super... more mediocre super... or am I better off just consolidating the hardware but not the
OS's and programs. Also, I do currently use three or four different distros of Linux, mostly for ethical hacking and security type work like pen testing. One thing I have never been a fan of though is dual booting. Perhaps investing
in a hot-swap HDD chassis that I could load all the different OS's on where I could just pop in whatever OS I am looking to use. As you can see I am far from knowing where to spend my efforts in research.... THANK YOu for ANY help.
I was recently suggested Microsoft HPC Pack as a platform? Anything?
Here is what I currently have:
these are all fully built)
Intel i5 3.7 quad core
Nvidia (ASUS) GTX-760
16 Gb DDR3 @ 1600 Corsair
ASUS Sabertooth Z87 MoBo
Autodesk - Inventor, Revit, 3Ds Max, Maya, Fusion 360, Flow, etc.
Adobe - PhotoShop, After Effects, Dreamweaver, Illustrator, etc.
Basically as you can see this is used for my work in 3d modeling, rendering, and drafting along with 3D printing.
Sys. #2
AMD 4.7-5.0 8 Core
Nvidia GTX 760 (Same as sys #1)
16 Gb DDR3 @ 2400 Mhz
ASUS Crosshair V Formula Z
Various programs for programming, app development, gaming, etc. (This is my daily driver)
Sys #3
AMD 4.5-4.7 8 core
16 Gb DDR3 @ 1600 Mhz
Asus Crosshair V Formula Z MoBo
Not currently using this one but is fully functional.
Sys #4
HP built i5 3.4 quad core
12 Gb DDR3 @ 1600
Nothing Special - this is the one I was using for school work but being that school and programming became one and the same I have all but abandoned it.
THANK YOU AGAIN TO ANYONE WHO HAS MADE IT THIS FAR in reading this.

The cluster works only for standalone webcache and httpserver installations types.
If you want to do this you have to use dcmctl command to change from one farm to another.
try checking with dcmctl command with out options an dyou will get a full list of options.
then run dcmctl usage(orhelp) option to see what you need.
As far as I remember
you have to check the farm id of the server you want to be the master
then in the second, you have to run dcmctl joinfarm or something like that.
Regards.

Can't install drivers and software for hp c7180 on virtual machine with no USB port

I have a virtual machine running Windows XP to use some old software that isn't compatible with Windows-7. I also would like to print to my HP C7180 all-in-one printer from the XP VM. I downloaded the entire 520MB app and driver package, and then just the 72MB driver package, but both give me errors stating:
This system does not meet one or more of the minimum requirements needed to install this product. The installation cannot continue.
Requirement/Details and Guidance
USB Drivers/This computer does not have the necessary USB software support to allow completion of a USB installation. The installation cannot continue until this is resolved.
USB Hardware/Required Action: Click Cancel to exit this software installation. In order to install this device as a USB device, please refer to your computer documentation or USB add-in card documentation for more information about USB drivers.
I don't want to do a USB installation, but a Network installation as this all-in-one is connected only to my network.
Is there any way to force this software (with an option/switch) to only do a network installation? It never gets to the part where it asks what type of install where you can choose USB or Through the Network.
A link to where I can simply download the drivers that would allow me to print only would work as I can create a local LPR printer port using the printer's IP address.
Please advise...

Please advise . thanks in advance

Hi
Thanks for the reply . I am using
Virtual machine manager console .
right click on the virtual machine, i see network adaptar in Hardware Configuration and there no option to choose speed in any of the option.
Please guide me if i am wrong

How do I set Premiere preferences for all users - University lab machine?

I am setting up an editing suite for our University which has a "per machine" Creative Cloud licence. It is a PC installation. This machine will be used by a class of students who will log in with their own credentials. I need to set the preferences for Premiere (video output, workspace layout, default drives etc) so that it will be the same for all users logging in since we want a consistent setup for teaching purposes and dont want to have to help each student set up so that it shows correctly on the monitors. Is there a way of saving this setting as the default for every user?
The most important one is the preferences - Playback in order to set up the second monitor.

Setting up MPD for every user on the machine

I'm having a few problems setting up MPD. What I want to do is configure MPD such that it starts automatically at login using the current user config file (so that it uses the correct db) and stops playing and exit (to free port 6600) on logout. This way when a different user logs in MPD will use the correct database and playlists dir.
So far I've created all the needed files (.mpd/{.conf,.pid,etc}) in the home dirs of every user and followed this (MPD/Autostart with systemd/Current Setup) then I followed these steps for user1 (created the needed files in user1's home) Using systemd to manage your session (Should I repeat them for user2?). I'm using this service for mpd:
[Unit]
Description=Music Player Daemon
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/mpd %h/.config/mpd/mpd.conf --no-daemon
ExecStop= /usr/bin/mpd %h/.config/mpd/mpd.conf --kill #I expected this to stop mpd on logout
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
The problem is that when I log out the music keeps playing which means mpd is still running. If I log in as user2 I can see users1 database (using ncmpc) but I can't control the playback e.g:If I want to skip the current track it stops playing.
Any ideas?

rodrigomb81 wrote:ExecStop= /usr/bin/mpd %h/.config/mpd/mpd.conf --kill #I expected this to stop mpd on logout
That will stop mpd when the service is stopped, which will happen when the user instance of systemd exits. So logout should do `systemctl --user exit`. (This might be mentioned on the wiki, but that systemd/user page is a big mess.)

Monitor bandwidth utilization for Hyper-V's Virtual Machines

Hi,
I'm wondering, if SCOM is capable to monitor incoming & outgoing traffic (current and total over time) of VMs in Hyper-V?
Tried to search about it, and found only 3rd party tools or the monitoring is only available for Router, not VMs.
Thanks.

Hi Andre,
Also you can use performance monitor to monitor the VM's bandwidth through counter "Bytes Received/sec" and "Bytes Sent/sec" under Hyper-v virtual network adapter :

Block alignment for NetWare 6.5 Virtual Machines

I have an enviornment with multiple virtualized Netware VM's running on vSphere. Some were converted using VMware's P2V software other's were migrated using the SCMT.
My question relates to block alignment at the NSS layer. I have the block alignment handled up to this point:
SAN Luns: 64kb
VMFS Partitions: 64kb
VMDK files: If created using the vSphere client 64kb. If P2V ???
NSS partitions within VMDK: ???
What is the default block size for the NSS partitions in Netware? I there a way to check?
If they are not at 64KB, Is there a tool available to re-align them to 64kb?
Thanks for the help!

The default and only available block size for NSS is 4k. No alignment should be necessary as 4 divides evenly into 64.

Automatic shutdown on old machine

Every time I use firefox (or so it seems) ...my computer automatically shuts down on me. The fan suddenly cranks up to top speed and then the machine shuts down.
Now, my machine is a 10 yr old Dell Latitude. This used to happen quite infrequently that I could live with it, but the last couple of days it happens every 10 mins or so. Are there any settings that I can check to prevent this. Or maybe some software to curb the speed of the fan ?

I was having a somewhat similar issue with my cpu overheating and throttling a while back. for the little it may help, simply taking apart my case and cleaning everything with a couple of cans of power duster completely eliminated the problem, and dropped the cpu temp under load by *25* degrees!

Possible to shutdown Virtual machine in case of inactivity ?

Hi all,
i wanto to know if its possible to shutdown ( Desallocate ) virtual machine in case of inactivity.
I try to make that with automation but i dont find a script which do that since the azure portal.
I found its possible in the VMs but if i have 200 Vms its a hard job.
Thanks for all

Different delays for tooltips

Is it possible to set different delays for two tooltips ? for example, for one component its tooltip will show immediately, but for another component in the same panel its tooltip will show after 2 seconds ?
As a guess I would use mouseEntered() on the components to do (ToolTipManager).setInitialDelay(...) whenever the value changes.
Is there a way to set tooltip specific values for the values you usually set through the ToolTipManager ?

Please do not disclose branches on the external forums. As an Oracle employee you should post questions regarding internal builds to Oracle's internal forums. One the final steps in the wizard allows you to change packaging for each VO and EO.
