SQL 2012 Cluster- How to or Steps to Move Tempdb Files from Local drive to Shared volume

Hi..
I did Installation of SQL Server 2012 Cluster. During this setup I installed Tempdb Files on Local drive. Now I want to move this tempdb files from local drive to Shared Drive . When I am trying to move I am getting below error.
Does any one can help me or provide the steps to move this tempdb files from local drive to Shared Drive ?
Msg 5184, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot use file 'Z:\Tempdb\tempdb.mdf' for clustered server. Only formatted files on which the cluster resource of the server has a dependency can be used. Either the disk resource containing the file is not present in the cluster group or the cluster resource
of the Sql Server does not have a dependency on it.
Thanks

Hi,
The error message may be thrown out when you attempt to create a database on another shared cluster drive when the SQL Server resource is not dependent on that disk.
Check if you are in the scenario which mentioned in the following article:
How to create databases or change disk file locations on a shared cluster drive on which SQL Server was not originally installed

How to copy very large number of files from one drive to another???

I'm a fairly experienced Mac user for serveral years but this problem really has me stumped.
I'm trying to copy or move 152,000 files from one external drive to another drive. I can highlight (Cmd - A) all the files on the first drive and drag them to the second drive but Finder always shows 32,768 files being copied no matter what I try.
Any and all suggestions on how to move/copy a large number of files from one external drive to another are greatefully appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Mack

I would use the command line tool rsync.
For instance with: rsync -av source-dir destination-dir
-a The files are transferred in "archive" mode, which ensures that symbolic links, devices, attributes, permissions, ownerships, etc. are preserved in the transfer.
-v Verbose, so you see the progress.
Rsync is fast and really, really powerful and many times used in shell scripts and the like to automatically backup and/or sync stuff. Google a bit for more info.

Hello,
You can schedule an operating system task (Control Panel -> Schedule task) to either call a batch file or a PowerShell script.
Please read the following resources for examples:

New To Mac, How to move/copy files from external drive

Just got my first Mac computer. My music files (about 140 gb) are on an external drive.
When setting up iTunes the process of transfering and organizing the files took over 24 hours--more than twice as long as on my old PC.
I would like to keep the files on the Mac itself. I have plenty of space now, and I think not using an external drive improves performance. Then I could use the hard drive as a back-up, as nature intended.
Problem is, due to my inexperience with Macs I'm stumped as to how to do this.
Any suggestions would be greatly aprecciated!

I believe you would simply copy your iTunes Music folder from your external drive into the main iTunes folder on your Mac, then open Preferences, and in the Advanced section use the 'Change' button next to eh 'iTunes music folder location' window to find your copy of the iTunes Music folder and let your Mac know that's where all your tunes are.
That's pretty much the exact reverse of what I had to do!
Hope that helps (and isn't wrong)!

How do I open music after moving files from 1 drive to another?

I ran out of disk space on my C drive. The computer is partitioned w/ C & D drives. I moved all itunes folders to the D drive and cannot open the music. I went to advanced and redirected to the D drive and appropriate file without any luck.

Hold down the Shift key in Windows when opening iTunes. In the resulting dialogue you will get the option to create a new library or navigate to an existing one. Navigate to where you placed the copy of the library file and open it up: How to open an alternate iTunes Library file

Adding existing SQL Server 2012 to a New SQL 2012 Cluster

We currently have a SQL 20012 Server setup and running on our domain. We would like to switch this to a clustered environment. Is it possible to setup the new SQL 2012 Cluster and add the existing SQL 2012 server as a node in the cluster
without losing any functionality. All servers will be built with same drive letter.

No its not possible to convert standalone installation to cluster.Moreover first you need to configure Windows cluster then backup all SQL server databases logins jobs packages and install fresh instance of SQL Server in cluster aware mode

Sql 2008 r2 cluster side by side with sql 2012 cluster on Windows 2008 R2

We have a SQL 2008R2 active/passive SQL cluster running on Windows 2008 R2 cluster.
I would like to add a SQL 2012 clustered instance to the same Winows 2008 R2 cluster.
Are there any issues involved having a SQL 2008 R2 clustered instance running side by side with a SQL 2012 instance in same Windows 2008 R2 cluster?
Are there any pitfalls/"gotchas" to watch for with SQL 2012 cluster install?
Thank you so much!

Hello,
Two instances, one SQL Server 2008 and the other SQL Server 2012, side-by-side, is fully supported.
I would like to recommend you to assign a different port (not port 1433) to the non-default instance
to avoid an IP address conflict between both instances.
Hope this helps.

SQL 2012 Cluster Multi Instances !

Hello,
For SQL 2012 Cluster Multi Instances setup, Does the Storage Space should be different for each instance or can be the same?
Kindly help me in this.
Regards !

Hello,
The reason is that's what Microsoft decided to do. It's also that way because disks are a clustered resource and belong to a single resource group. Each SQL Server install will have its own resource group. If a disk could belong to more than one resource
group, and a group fails - then all of the instances with the same disk would fail. That's not what you'd want from an HA solution. Microsoft clustering is a shared nothing model to which this is part of.
Before installing:

How to move all files from a folder for a user to a centralized folder on a core server

Hello,
I'm curious if there is a batch file that can be made to move the contents that are setup like this....
I'm having to redo a TS cluster and I'd like to make a batch file script that can be executed that moves the contents of say 'jsmith's local desktop profile @ \\NGTTS1\users\jsmith to a centralized folder on our roaming desktop profile server that saves
all of the files for the desktops @ \\NGTFS1\users\jsmith.
The problem I have is no matter what I tell users to save there files to our Y drive that is a folder that is synced across all 6 of our TS servers, users still store files on there desktops, so as you can imagine if one day they are on one server, then
next day they could be on another and there files aren't the same.... hence the reason why I want to move all there files to the centralized server so when I redo the profiles from scratch on the TS server in the farm they suck files from the core server and
have all of the files they are used to having....
Now I know I can do this with a MOVE command I've just never done one to this exact.
Hopefully someone knows the command to move all the contents of one folder on one server to the folder on a different server. I've already got the bulk of the coding done of the .bat script I just don't know this move command:
would it be this:
move \\NGTTS1\users\jsmith *.* \\NGTFS1\users\jsmith
any help would be appreciated, I'm sure this is a easy command to do!
This is the coding I have so far....
@echo off
color 0A
title Moving Local Profile folder to Centralized Profile Folder on Core Server.
:start
echo Welcome, %USERNAME%
echo What would you like to do?
echo.
echo 1. Moving Local Profile folder to Centralized Profile Folder on Core Server
echo.
echo 0. Quit
echo.

echo.
pause
cls
goto start
:Move-user-profiles
echo.
set /p profile="Enter user profile: "
move "\\NGTTS1\users\%profile%" *.* "\\NGTFS1\users\%profile%"
echo moving files from local profile folder to FS1 profile server, stand-by...
echo.
goto cancel-special
:cancel-special
set /p cancel="Type cancel to stop action: "
if not "%cancel%"=="cancel" exit
cls
echo Action is cancelled.
echo.
pause
exit

In Windows we would do this using Group Policy. There is a Policy setting that csn move the Desktop folder to any server you want to move it to. Once set it will automatically do this for you.
You should post in the Group Policy forum to find out how we use Group Policy to manage users profiles in Windows.
You cannot use a script to relocate a users Desktop folder. The desktop is locked by the time the users logon script is finished running. It the desktop and profile are already being managed by Group Policy then this can only be done with GP.
There are also numerous issues associated with deployment and re-deployment that you need to address Post your questions in the Winows Deployment forum to get assistance with deployment issues.
Again - want you are asking is not generally possible because of how Windows is designed. This would only likely work on a simple system or on a stand alone PC and then only under a very limited set of circumstances.
Use GP folder redirection to do this. For deployment use Deployment Forum and for TS specific issues post in the RDS forum.
All of this needs to be considered correctly for TS users inn a TS Cluster environment. (TS Cluster?? - not sure what you mean by that.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

How do I move a file from "Recents" in Adobe Reader for Android to a folder in "Documents"?

How do I move a file from "Recents" in Adobe Reader for Android to a folder in "Documents"?
Files from Google Drive are appearing in "Recents" where I cannot organize them hierarchically.
I cannot find a user manual for Adobe Reader for Android with this level of detail.

Hi John,
Files opened via Google Drive are not listed in ‘Documents' section of Adobe Reader, because they are read only files. If you really want to save these files to ’Documents' then please follow below steps -
Open the file from Google drive in Adobe Reader.
Tap on the Comment icon placed at top toolbar(Second icon from the beginning)
You would encounter a 'Read-Only document’ dialog, tap on Save button.
Once you performed above steps , your file will be saved in /Download/Adobe Reader/ folder.
Hope this will solve your problem.
Thanks,

How do I delete the synced offline files from my iPhone?

Hey people! I just unchecked "offline" for all my playlists on my iPhone to free up some memory. However the usage of the Spotify-App is still shown with 1GB. Is there any way to get rid of the cached songs besides reinstalling the app? Regards, Marius

Spotify are currently collecting information about this, since in theory that is what should happen
No one from Spotify has posted since Meredith asked for user info regarding the bug. Generally that may not be so surprising as it has only been a couple of months. Howerver, it is not as it was news to the Staff. This thread:Help-iOS-iPhone-iPad-iPod-Touch/How-do-I-delete-the-synced-offline-files-from-my-iPhone is from spring 2012.
My point is that I think it would be good if everyone experiencing this problem made some noise.

Sorry, yes this is Microsoft Excel. The Microsoft XP has Excel files denoted as xl, the later versions of Microsoft Excel are denoted as xls files. The later verions of Microsoft Excel open the xl files OK, does Excel for Mac not able to do this?

How do I delete a movie (not bought from iTunes) and have it actually deleted from the library as well?

How do I delete a movie (not bought from iTunes) and have it actually deleted from the library as well, I keep deleting stuff from iTunes to try and free up some space only to find the file still in the library?

It depends upon what preferences settings you use. Most people use default settings so when you delete an item it asks you if you want to get rid of the file too.
If iTunes absolutely refuses to get rid of the file (I have never heard of this by the way) you can always go to the media folder or wherever the file is located and drag it to the trash yourself.
