Setting up AD at DR site

hi,
We are planning to set up an AD at DR site. The production AD is using windows server 2003 R2 32bit SP2 and is in virtualize environment.
The DR site also will be in virtualize environment. I need help for steps to setting up the AD at DR site.
My idea is to setup an AD at the DR site then replicate the production AD to the DR site.
I'm new to this Active Directory any suggestions will be a great helpful.
Thanks

Hi,
Based on my research, you can create a new site, then promote a server as an additional Domain Controller in the new site, configure appropriate DNS settings, and wait for AD replication
to take place.
Although, it is not recommended to place only one virtual Domain Controller in a site, we should maintain
physical Domain Controller in each site to mitigate the risk of a virtualization platform malfunction.
Here are some related links below I suggest you refer to:

Can I Set Up a 2nd iWeb Site?

Hi,
I was wondering if you are able to set up a 2nd iWeb Site. My Daughter has a site but I'd like to set one up too for myself. Any help would be great!
Thanks in Advance,
XMTitan

Hi,
if you and your daughter have different accounts on the computer there is no problem in having two sites. Your site will show up on iWeb in your user account and her site will show up on iWeb in her user account. If you want to make a site which is independent from your daughter's site and don't have different user accounts on your computer you just have to have two different Domain files (where iWeb stores its files User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2 ).
If you don't want to have a completely independent site and don't have different user accounts on your computer open iWeb go to File=>New Site
Site=>Index where people choose which site they want to visit your daughter's or yours
Site1=>Your daughter's
Site2=>Yours
you then can publish to the same .Mac account or host.
The only problem that could happen is with publishing two independent sites to the same .Mac account. One site will overwrite (thus delete) the other. That problem is not happening with using two different .Mac accounts or by publishing to two different hosts.

Cédric

How to set security group as primary site collection admin and secondary site collection admin using powershell in sharepoint online site - office 365?

How to set security group as primary site collection admin and secondary site collection admin using powershell in sharepoint online site - office 365?

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to set security group as admin of primary and secondary site collection using PowerShell command in office 365.
I suggest you can use the command below to set the group to site owner, then it will have the site collection admin permission.

Setting SharingCapability property for a Site Collection using CSOM in C#

Hello,
I am trying to deploy multiple site collections in a SharePoint 2013 Online tenant, using CSOM in C#.
I am currently using the SiteCreationProperties to do this, but I miss one crucial parameter : SharingCapability.
Do you guys know a way of activating external sharing for a site collection in CSOM ?

I believe you can set the SharingCapability of the Site after you create it. You can use the Microsoft.Online.SharePoint.TenantAdministration.Tenant.GetSitePropertiesByUrl(siteUrl, true)
This returns SiteProperties object with a SharingCapability property you can set with the appropriate enumeration. Then call the Update method.

How set hard quota to my site?

Hi all,
I am setting the disk quota as following.
if (siteTemplate.ToLower() != MySiteHostTemplate.ToLower())
Int64 i64DiskSpace = diskspace;
SPTlogger.Debug("diskSpace: " + i64DiskSpace.ToString());
i64DiskSpace = (i64DiskSpace * 1024) * 1024;
SPQuotaTemplate quotaTemplate = null;
try
quotaTemplate = GetSPTQuotaTemplateByStorageMaxLevel(i64DiskSpace);
if (quotaTemplate == null)
//we are not supporting storagewarninglevel; setting it 90% of storagemaxlevel
long storagewarninglevel = (i64DiskSpace * 90) / 100;
long storagemaxlevelMB = (i64DiskSpace / 1024) / 1024;
string templateName = string.Format("{0}({1}MB)", i64DiskSpace, storagemaxlevelMB);
quotaTemplate = CreateSPTQuotaTemplate(templateName, i64DiskSpace, storagewarninglevel);
if (Site != null)
Site.Quota = quotaTemplate;
catch (Exception ex)
SPTlogger.Error("-------------------------ERROR-------------------------");
SPTlogger.Error("Error while fetching quota template: " + ex.Message);
if (Site != null)
Site.Quota.StorageMaximumLevel = i64DiskSpace;
Site.Quota.StorageWarningLevel = (i64DiskSpace * 90) / 100;
// end setting disk quota template
if (Site != null) Site.Close();
It is setting the disk quota. however during file upload, larger file are also being uploaded. What is missing here?
Tnanks,
Moohak

Hi,
The following code snippet for your reference:
SPSite siteCollection = new SPSite("http://MySiteCollection");
SPQuota quota = siteCollection.Quota;
quota.StorageMaximumLevel = 5242880; //bytes
quota.StorageWarningLevel = 5242880; //bytes
siteCollection.Quota = quota;
I suggest you debug your code or provide more code(like the GetSPTQuotaTemplateByStorageMaxLevel
and CreateSPTQuotaTemplate methods) for further research.

When i'm in safari, if i hit command   to make the type bigger safari doesn't rememberthis setting after i close the site and reload it. in chrome this happens automatically. can i make safari remember my type size settings automatically?

when i'm in safari, if i hit command +   to make the type bigger safari doesn't remember this setting after i close the site and reload it. in chrome this happens automatically. can i make safari remember my type size settings automatically?

That is normal Safari behavior.
May be this will help.

How to set page margin for any site being viewed without back and forth scrolling?

Some sites and most forums, the threads cannot be read without scrolling the screen back and forth. How can these be set where all information is read without moving screen short of up or down and not side ways back and forth.

Thank you all for attempts to satisfy my needs. The last concerning my screen is 19 inches and 800 resolution. I'm very long in the tooth and if I go higher in
resolution I have to play squint the fonts are so small. Crank them up and I'm back to scrolling back and forth on the screen.
Again thanks for help but I' m not interested in spending money on newer
haha state of the art equipment just to satisfy the need of cyber space Ad
purveyors to post their wares. Graphics I can do without as well. If they want
me to see what they have to offer, then stop messing with what once worked just fine.
I still have Word where I can do with whatever I copy n paste to get done what I need. The convenience of doing so right at the site isn't a requirement as such. Being a retired Master Electronics Technician, I'm short on computer orientations but long on other kinds of smarts.
Again, Thank you all for the help.

SP2013 Set default views across multiple site collections (powershell)?

I am the editor for a large SharePoint 2013 publishing site with approximately 130+ subsites. Based on our most popular content types, I've create two diffferent default views that will come in handy as we move to a distributed authorship model. (I'm thinking
specifically about the Quick Edit/Excel-like feature to make quick changes to page/document metadata.)
The authors/content owner/editors have NO experience with SharePoint, so while the usual benefit of using views is that they can be tailored to individual needs, I'd like to start them off with something that is VERY easy to change on the fly using Ribbon >
Library > Quick Edit. It's either that or, as just a power user in the CMS, go to each individual page and document library and change it manually, which could take days, if not longer. The ideal solution would look for all subsite of layout/content type
foo and change the default views within the page libraries to a set of 17 metadata.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Ryan D Watters

Hi Ryan,
As I understand, you would like to change default view for page/document libraries via powershell.
Firstly, you need to get all page/document libraries in the site, then add columns to default view.
Here are some articles for your reference:

Set alias URL for SharePoint site

Hi,
I want to set the SP site alias. my server name appearing http://dmfpqabudappcq2 and i want to change it to http://MySharePoint.
I check the central admin - AAM - Edit alias url. I have updated there.
Now, i am setting the new alias host in DNS. for this i have open the DNS - expands server name - Forward Lookup zone. When i go for right click then i can not see to add new alias and server IP there.
Can anyone please tell what i am missing here to complete the setting for SharePoint alias.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Rakesh

I've never trusted changing a Web App's URL. I always advise adding a new AAM for http://intranet etc. alongside your already existing server name.
I would return the inital entry to as it was, then add a new AAM for your site.
Now if i understand you correctly you haven't added an A host record for the AAM address to DNS yet? This is described here:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc779029%28v=ws.10%29.aspx
Once you have an A host record you should be able to 'ping' that address from a client computer. You should also be able to browse the site from a client computer (assuming there's a site collection created for that web application).
You will not however be able to browse it from your SharePoint server, this is because of the loop back check:

Can I set privileges for publishing a site?

Is it possible to set up Muse such that one of my team is able to make various changes to a site, but only I am able to publish to Business Catalyst, once the changes have been approved?
Thanks in advance

Hi
With Muse we cannot setup permission privileges for publishing sites, Muse will publish the site to user account which is setup in Publish account ( Edit > Preferences > Publish Account )
Any user with administrative permission with the site can make changes to the site within Business Catalyst as well from Muse, unless you remove all the permission privilege for that user from Business Catalyst.
So if user is added as Admin role in Business Catalyst then he can edit the site as well pulish the site from Muse , but if User is removed from admin role then he cannot publish the site from Muse.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Is it possible to create a super-set materialized view from master site?

In the replication documents, materialized view is a sub-set of master site. But my scenario is when I delete some records in the master site. I don't want these records(which's been replicated to the materialized view table before) be purged in the materialized view. Is it possible for oracle replication ?

If your goal is to replicate inserts and updates but to ignore deletes, you would probably be better off setting up Streams and simply not subscribing to deletes.

Firefox's option bar for saving username and passwords will not show, I have it set to remember passwords for sites. Can sites be added manually?

I was using Norton to remember my user names and passwords, however I do not use Norton any longer. Firefox does not give me the option of saving passwords even though I have it set to remember them.
There are no sites in the exceptions list. How can I reset Firefox so the option bar shows?

* Make sure that you not run Firefox in (permanent) [[Private Browsing]] mode
* In Private Browsing mode some menu items are disabled (grayed) and features like visited links are disabled and not showing
* You are in Private Browsing mode if you see "Tools > Stop Private Browsing", possibly grayed
* You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
* To see all History settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>
* Uncheck: [ ] "Automatically start Firefox in a private browsing session"
