Setup UCS Auto-Deploy using PXE and dual vNICs
We are trying to set up Auto Deploy for UCS B200 M3 blade servers. Our setup has the chassis connected to dual 6248 Fabric Interconnects. We were successful in getting this to work when the blades were identified via MAC address configured on the DHCP server (Infoblox). However, in trying to resolve the scenario of the server attempting to PXE boot via either NIC, thus having two different MAC addresses, this scenario could not be supported on the DHCP server (mapping two MAC addresses to one IP address). Then we had the idea of using the GUID/UUID of the blade as a unique client identifier, as it is the same no matter which NIC is used.
We have tried to set this up, but have been unsuccessful. The blade sends out its' GUID using DHCP option 97, but the DHCP server is only looking for the Client ID via DHCP Option 61. We have not been able to determine how, or if, the blade server can send its' GUID via DHCP Option 61, and Infoblox tells us that their server cannot be configured to accept DHCP Option 97 as a client identifier.
Has anyone encountered this situation, and resolved it? Surely this isn't a unique situation, having a blade server with two NICs.
Thanks in advance for your response.

Hi Ron,
i am currently setting up an autodeploy environment. But i only use one nic per host for boot from san. Because of the autofailover possibility in ucs, i think i do not need a second nic.
Why do you use a second nic? Do i miss something or is it just because of the thinking to have a redundancy for management in vcenter?

How do I activate Office 2013 that I have deployed using ODT and App-V onto a Remote Desktop Server?
I am setting up a demo Server 2012 R2 environment (1 DC server, 2 RDSH servers, 1 App-V server).
I have created an Office 2013 volume license App-V package using the latest Office Deployment Toolkit. I have deployed the App-V package to an RDS server and it all works fine. However, I am unable to activate Office 2013 using the MSDN Office 2013 retail
key because it tells me the product key is invalid for this version of Office. I've looked at the alternative of using the App-V Sequencer to create the Office 2013 package, but from what I've read this is not a Microsoft supported method.
Is there any way that I can activate Office 2013 (volume license on RDS) using the method I've outlined above, or is there any way of using the Office2013 download from MSDN such that it can be packaged by the ODT (or App-V Sequencer) for successful deployment
using App-V and activation using the retail Office 2013 product key on MSDN?True, VL channel media can't be activated with MSDN Retail pkeys (that's what I was trying to get you to understand, I figured you would be attempting that, as so many people do :(
I've not attempted your scenario myself.
It sounds like you aren't following the supported scenarios as (poorly) described by MS;
The way I read their guide, for an RDS scenario, you must use a VL key [either MAK or KMS] (since a subscription product+key can't be used on RDS):
i.e.: <Product ID="ProPlusVolume">
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2772509
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2915745
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/dn481351.aspxhttp://blogs.technet.com/b/office_resource_kit/archive/2013/12/02/announcing-app-v-5-0-sp2-support-for-office-2013-volume-licensing-editions.aspx
So, that all means that for RDS, you can't use anything other than VL "product" (in
the form of an ODT-generated output) with a VL pkey. So, for your RDS demo setup, you need to use real product and real pkeys.

Premiere is Crashing when using CUDA and dual GTX680
I am getting consistent crashing when using Premiere in this configuration:
OSX 10.8.5

Jeff,
The ATI card is the GUI interface, it can't be disabled. GTX cards are dedicated to processing (DaVinci Resolve setup). Are there known issues with setups using both ATI and NVidia CUDA cards?
I actually rolled back the CUDA drivers do to this same issue. Recent version of the drivers had the same issue.
bk
Yeah, typically dual video card setups that involve cards or chips from different manufacturers will choke Pr. Typical issue is with laptops that have on-board Intel graphics chips and also have ATI or nVidia graphics adapters. I don't have any answers or workarounds for you if that's your issue. To see if the different manufacturer thing is the issue, try temporarily disabling the nVidia cards and using hardware-accelerated Mecury Playback with the ATI card and OpenCL. (I'm not a Mac guy, so I don't know if the GUI card can be used for other video processing.)

How to setup Time Capsule to use wifi and 2 ethernet ports
Hi, I hope someone can help with this issue as I've been searching for an answer without success. Basically, can a Time Capsule (1st gen) connected to a modem create a wireless network, as well as connect to an ethernet powerline adapter, as well as connect to an iMac by ethernet?
My original setup was as follows:
modem > time capsule (which creates a wireless network) > iMac
I bought an AirPort Express to use in another room. It was extending the TC wifi network, but the speeds weren't great so I've got a pair of powerline ethernet adapters. I wanted to add those into my current setup so that the Express can create a wireless network.
Anyway, before I can get to that stage, I'm having issues with the TC. I want to achieve the setup as follows:
modem > time capsule (which creates a wireless network) > powerline adapter 1 * > powerline adapter 2 > airport express
* But as well as connecting an ethernet cable to powerline adapter 1, also connect one from TC to my iMac.
When I tried connecting an ethernet cable to the TC in my original setup, the iMac lost connection to the internet. I've managed to get the following setup to work:
modem > time capsule (which creates a wireless network) > powerline adapter 1 > powerline adapter 2 > imac
But to achieve the setup I want, would require me to buy another powerline adapter (for the Express), and it seems silly to have to use a powerline adapter for my iMac when it is right next to the TC.
Any help would be appreciated.modem > time capsule (which creates a wireless network) > powerline adapter 1 * > powerline adapter 2 > airport express
* But as well as connecting an ethernet cable to powerline adapter 1, also connect one from TC to my iMac.
When I tried connecting an ethernet cable to the TC in my original setup, the iMac lost connection to the internet. I've managed to get the following setup to work:
What you are attempting should work fine. The TC should be able to manage multiple ethernet connections as well as the wireless.
Investigate what is happening when you plug ethernet into the TC from the imac.
Please try it.. turn off wireless in the imac to ensure ethernet is the only connection.
But I would recommend you shut off the whole network at that point. Restart everything in order.. modem .. TC.. EOPs.. Express.. clients.. with 2min gap between them.
Now look at the imac and check the network preferences.. did it pick up the correct IP from the TC? It should have router (gateway) and DNS all correct using dhcp.. if not check the connectivity light on the TC.. does it come on when you plug in the ethernet cord?
Open a terminal on the mac and ping the TC address. does it respond?
Give a few screen shots of how the TC is setup.. bridge, router and what IP it is running. Even just the summary page. -
Cost of logic board, new & used, Quad and Dual G5, new & used
This will seem a strange question, and difficult to get an answer. That's why it is being posted here.
How may one find out the cost each of the following, if purchased during July 2007 to August 2008 ?
• New logic board for the Quad G5
• Used logic board for the Quad G5
• New logic board for the Dual G5
• Used logic board for the Dual G5
If the exact amount of each isn't known, does anyone have an estimate, or a suggestion on how to get these four cost amounts ?Hello,
I am not sure I completely understand what you are asking... The simple thing to do in pricing out each of those 4 parts is to check out ebay... Then add maybe a few hundred dollars to them and you willl get similar pricing from back in 2007 to 2008. A Quad G5 logic board today can be had from anywhere to 100 up to 350.00.. Back in 2007, it was probably around 5-600 dollars..
But, really I would check out ebay and do a search for G5 Quad or Power Mac G5 Quad.. as for the dual G5? Really, those were not even worth it, given their extreme LCS leaking problems, especially the 2004 Dual G5 2.5 which was notorious for leaking.
The Quad is by far the best you can get... and make sure you find one with the SINGLE PUMP as it was the most reliable made and still is. Those came out in the later half of 2006 from April until September of that year, while the dual pumps were in Late 2005 October. -
Lenght of movie using iDVD and Dual Layer Burner
I am using FCE to create a movie that is a little over 2 hours. I verbatim dual disks that show 240 minutes of space. I have a lacie D2 DVD drive. I believe that I should be able to burn a 2hr movie with this equipment (of course the planets must be aligned I a will probably have to sacrifice my next child to the gods). But in theory it should work. RIGHT???
But in theory it should work. RIGHT???

Auto Deploy and Kickstart - pros and cons
I have an existing kickstart setup I am able to use for deploying a basic installation of ESXi as well as other OSes. For this, we PXE boot a server, go through a menu, and choose the appropriate option. I'm evaluating using Auto Deploy. Can I specify as a menu choice an option to use Auto Deploy instead of using kickstart?
Also,
- will VMware be replacing kickstart as an option with Auto Deploy?
- any advantages/disadvantages between the two methods? From what I've seen online, they seem comparable.Thanks, this is helpful. We do use Host Profiles, but we also have kickstart as our standard deployment method for physical servers, primarily for Linux, but it's also working for Windows and ESXi, too. However, using it for ESXi means we deploy a server with a basic setup, and currently need to apply Host Profiles manually. I'd like to use the existing kickstart infrastructure, and update the current ESXi install/upgrade choice to trigger an autodeploy of ESXi 6.0 to the hypervisor.
There seems to be some overlap between the two (e.g. both use TFTP and can use DHCP, and both deploy an OS onto the server, albeit with different methods). What I specifically need here is:
a. a way to, in the kickstart section to install ESXi 6.0, to trigger an auto deploy; I'd imagine I'd specify the auto deploy server as an option, e.g. ks= ... install=http://auto-deploy-server-ip-here/install/...
OR
b. a way to, in the kickstart ks.cfg configuration (in vmware's documentation, e.g. vSphere 6.0 Documentation Center, it refers to them as scripts), point to an autodeploy server to finish what kickstart starts.
Thoughts? -
Auto Deploy and VCD Network Isolation - Not Working
Hello,
I have opened a support case about this issue, but the case is moving a lot slower than I would like to see. I thought I'd post here to see if anyone has ran into anything similar.
We recently switched our 24-host vCloud cluster (more info about this cluster below) over to Auto-Deploy (was using boot from USB). After the switch, we had a few complaints from customers that use isolated networks. It turns out that only 4 of our 24 hosts were working properly with isolated networks. All 24-hosts are using the same auto-deploy image.
When the hosts boot up, the vCloud Director web interface shows the following with green check marks: "Status", "Enabled", "Ready", "Available", and "VCD Network Isolation Capable".
To get my other 20 hosts working, I disabled all 20 hosts in the vCloud interface, unprepared them, and prepared them. After this, network isolation worked for those 20 hosts. When I reboot one of the hosts, the host still looks like it's good in the interface, but network isolation doesn't work until I disable, unprepare, and prepare.
Here is some more information about our environment:
vCenter build 2001466
ESXi Host Build 2702864
VCD Build 5.5.2.2000523
vShield Build 5.5.3
Here is the Deploy Rule that the hosts are using:
Name : UCS-2.2.1-pcloud.5.5.aln
PatternList : {oemstring=$SPT:ESX_PublicCloud_autod.2.2.x}
ItemList : {ESXi-5.5.0-autod-2.2.1.vshield}
I have confirmed that this is indeed the profile being used by looking at the Summary tab for the hosts and seeing the listed Image Profile.
And here is what's in that item:

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.Right now, on my test host (that is not working), I have two VMs, one named "Test 1" and the other "Test 2" They only have an isolated network on them (named "Test Isolated Network") that is in my VDC, and pings do not work between them. If I move them to any other host (that have been unprepared and prepared), pings work. I can move both to the same host, or different hosts.
Here is the fence info on this host, I'm not really sure how to interpret this:

Deployed OS unable to use mouse and keyboard?
I have an really odd issue,
Since a few days I have an really odd issue, everytime I deploy an Image via MDT to a certain server type I am unable to move the mouse or use the keyboard. I can control it in the bios etc, but as soon as windows boots I lose control over the mouse and
keyboard. I recreated an image on a different server, put that back and the same thing happened. I deploy the images via WDS and it works fine there. Even after the OS is installed I can boot into PXE and I can control the mouse
When I create the image everything is fine, but when I deploy it to a different machine it's not able to be controlled.
Has anyone experienced this ever before? Deploying a fresh windows copy works. but I have no clue where and how I can read log files. The servers in question are Dell PowerEdges R210 II by the way.
The OS Deployed = Windows 7 PRO 64 bit
Server = Dell PowerEdge R210
Using MDT 2012 SP2 on Windows Server 2008 R2
Any help would be greatly appreciated!I'm not sure I totally follow what's going on above.
I have never had keyboard/mouse driver problems with MDT, sorry.
Can you walk up to the server an plug in a USB Keyboard? The OS should detect the new device and install the driver right then and there. If not, you may have a corrupt driver subsystem. I would also blame the KVM if you have one.

Auto-Deployment and Restarting Managed Server
Hi,
We are using WebLogic Server 7.0 SP2 on Solaris 8. Yesterday, a developer copied
over a new WAR file into the applications directory. Then he ried to restart the
managed server. This appeared to hang, so he tried restarting the admin. server,
which also failed. Looking at the log, it looks like the admin. server is trying
to deploy apps. from the applications/backup directory.
After I removed the backup directory and edited config.xml to remove all references
to this directory, I was able to startup the Admin. server (though there were
still some errors; see later) and the managed server.
The servers are actually running in "developemnt" mode and have the Aut-Deploy
feature enabled, so my theory is that the auto-deployment was conflicting with
the managed server restart. He shouldn't have had to restart the managed server
since Auto-Deploy is enabled, right?
I'm also wondering about these errors I got when I the Admin. server finally started:

Thanks,
PaulThe short answer to your question is that auto-deployment and multiple
servers don't mix.
If you have a single-server domain and choose to use auto-deployment,
that'll work fine.
Once you have separate admin/managed servers, you need to use
weblogic.Deployer, the wldeploy ant task (8.1), or the console to deploy
applications.

Help!! Auto-Deploy and Check For Updates in an OPMN-managed instance
I'm trying to use the auto-deploy and check for updates functions in an OAS 10.1.0.3 but I can not make it work.
I don't Know if this functions are only availables for a standalone OC4J instance.
Can anyone help me??
Thanks!!! and sorry for my poor english.Auto-Deploy is not really designed for an OPMN managed instance -- in earlier releases, this would not even work correctly since deployments where stored in the DCM subsystem and any subsequent configuration changes made via DCM would overwrite the config and you'd lose the "auto-deployed" application.
In 10.1.3.x where DCM is no longer in the picture, and the auto-deploy polling is a function of Oc4J itself, it may work. Be aware that this is not something that is tested in OPMN managed environments.
What configuration changes have you made?
You need to ensure you have modified server.xml so the attribute check-for-updates="all" and you've added the attribute application-auto-deploy-directory and have it pointing at a directory to watch.

Regarding the Customer Setup for ISA B2B using SAP J2EE 6.4 and NWDS
Hi
Does someone knows how we can setup a customer project using
SAP J2EE 6.4 and NWDS.
I've tried to setup the project but facing a weird problem..
I've ISAWAC640SP11 and ant buildtool to build the application.
I didn't get any "sda_build.xml" in this patch (ISAWAC640SP11).
i've used "sda_build.xml" of ISAWAC40SP11.
I've build the application using build tool but when i try to deploy it
on SAP J2EE 6.4 using SDM i get a weird message stating
<b>"com.sap.sdm.util.sduread.IllFormattedSduFileException: The archive must be deployed with a 6.20 SDM, which has a SDM-SDA compatible version 1 or greater."</b>
Does anyone knows from where can i get the sda_build.xml file compatible with
ISAWAC640SP11 ??
Also can some one suggest me to setup a customer project for extension and
modification of ISA B2B 640 on NWDS and SAP J2EE 6.4....
Thanks & Regards
Sandeep SolankiHi,
I am Rajesh..and it seems that you and I are facing the same problem. Well, I am really finding it hard to find material like PDF's files on Build Tool. and ISA Development and Extension Guide.
I would really appreaitate if you could send me some material. Well, My project is very simple and I have been given the task to first submit a simple demo of B2C on R/3 system. ( Not CRM ). I have also installed the NWDS and everything including the ISA WAC Java components. I am having real hard time in modifying them....
Can you please shed light on it...You can also email to me at [email protected]
Thanks in Advance for your kind consideration.

Precompile JSP and auto-deploy
Hi!
Before deploying our web-application we run it through 'ojscp' to pre-compile the JSP-pages.
The we use the auto-deploy feature of OC4J.
Work almost! - except the pre-compiled pasges are not deployed. A directory '_pages' are included in the war-file, but is not copied to the application-deployment directory (./persistence).
I can copy by hand and the things work.
It this a bug or have I missed something???
I am using a stand-alone OC4J 9.0.3 (latest release).
Kind Regards
Klaus Gadegaard
TietoEnator SolutionsKlaus,
Yes, we are aware of this issue/problem. We are working to fix this in 9.0.4.
What you are currently doing as a workaround will work just fine. As an alternative, if you could try to pre-create _pages directory and then deploy. I am not 100% sure if this alternative will work.. Will test out.. you may also want to try out.

Office 365 email deployment using Outlook 2010 and PRF files
Hi,
I've been struggling to get Outlook 2010 setup with a new Office 365 deployment. I would like to use custom PRF files to get the new Outlook profiles configured. I have more than 100 users.
One of PRF files I'm using is shown at the end of this message. Each user will get a custom PRF file with his/her information already configured (mailbox, server name, etc...). I've obtained the corresponding Exchange server using:
Get-Mailbox <email> | select ExchangeGUID
I've attached the domain at the end of the GUID and then that's the Exchange server. It matches what you get with Outlook using Autodiscover.
Using these PRF fies I'm able to create a new default profile and set all the parameters as if I had create the profile manually. Two problems here though:
1) I don't know what to change in the PRF file to set the Logon Network Security to Anonymous Authentication under the Security tab (Exchange account properties)
2) When Outlook asks me for the username and password, it won't take it, and I know I'm using the right credentials. If I create the profile manually (not using Autodiscover) and I use the same configuration parameters in the PRF file, everything is ok. I have
already run all the updates and tools that come as part of Setup Desktop in Office 365. Actually I get the same results with Outlook 2013.
I'm looking for some help here or ideas how to roll Office 365 without having to go user by user and creating a new profile and waiting for Autodiscover to finish :)

happens. 1 week later and probably 100 hours later I am just going to create a simple how-to for each user.
Here is the link I just found explaining the "virtual connection points". http://www.blackmanticore.com/2c209fbaa93ae6cf8f8dac5b50281f2e
I'm sure NEXT YEAR Microsoft will catch up with itself and add this option/feature in the Office Customization Tool to create PRF files that will actually work with their services. -
