Statically assign xenbr0 (eth0) interface to one specific NIC

Hi,
I have multiple NICs on my Oracle VM server. Everytime it reboots, xenbr0 (eth0) will be dynamically assigned to one of the NICs card, depending on which one comes up first. My xenbr0 is assigned a public address. That means that I will not be able to connect to the server remotely if it is assigned to a different NIC. Can someone tell me how I can assign xenbr0 to one specific NIC statically?
Regards,
Ming

In Oracle VM 2.2, it automatically creates xenbrX bridges for each ethX device it finds. If this is changing, it means your NICs are changing on boot. You need to ensure that your ifcfg-ethX device configurations have HWADDR fields to fix them to a particular NIC.
In Oracle VM 3.0, we do not create xenbrX bridges by default and this is all handled by the Manager.

  • Assigning new VIP interface

    Hello,
    We are building a clusterware implementation to protect a oracle SINGLE instance DB (using the well known pdf
    guide) and a 3rd party application (i'll call it APP). We want to assign 2 virtual IPs, one for the DB and one for
    the APP. The fact is that we want to split the traffic to 2 ethernet cards by assigning IP to boths of them. The problem is that I cannot assign VIPs to the second network card. Some facts:
    Oracle 10g2
    oifcfg -getif:
    eth0 192.168.0.0 global public
    eth1 192.168.0.0 global public
    eth2 192.168.3.0 global cluster_interconnect
    crs_stat -t -v (truncated)
    rg1 application ONLINE esm1
    rg1.lsn application ONLINE esm1
    rg1.vip application ONLINE esm1 << Bound on eth0 WORKS
    rg1.db application ONLINE esm1
    arcVIP applcation OFFLINE esm2 << Bound on eth1 problem
    command used to create APP VIP:
    crs_profile -create arcVIP -t application -a $CRS_HOME/usrvip -o oi=eth1,ov=192.168.0.10,on=255.255.255.0
    crs_register arcVIP
    crs_setperm arcVIP -o root
    crs_setperm arcVIP -u user:oracle:r-x
    crs_start arcVIP
    trying to start bring the following vip log on both nodes:
    Interface eth1 checked failed (host=esm1)
    Invalid parameters, or failed to bring up VIP
    I also cannot run vipca (various java library error-no time to debug a program too)
    Is it possible to give a hint of what is going on? Is it possible that the same subnets pose problem?
    Regards,
    Jim
    Edit:
    the main IP address of the interface is pingable by the way

    Currently the only VIP assigned to the hosts is the application VIP for the oracle
    instance (created according to the pdf "protecting a single instance DB with Clusterware")
    It is assigned on eth0/192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
    The second interface is eth1/192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0
    I was told that the overlapping subnets do not pose a problem.
    I have removed the default VIPs assigned to each host during the clusterware installation because
    i am solely interested in application vips failed over to the surviving node.
    I used crs_unregister ora.racnode[x].vip
    crsd.log shows nothing except the failure to bring up the VIP
    /var/log/messages shows nothing.
    The vip was crs_setperm to owner root and read execute to oracle user.
    Thanks for your time.

  • How to only synchronize one specific LDAP user group with SAP?

    Hi,
    Hopefully this is the correct forum to post this in. I want to have continuous one-way synchronization of users from my LDAP server to my SAP central system. I've started configure in SAP using transaction SM59 and LDAP. Can I somewhere set that only one specific LDAP user group shall be transferred to SAP (they do not need to be assigned to any specific group, profile, role in SAP) - or should this be done on the LDAP server side (or is it at all possible)?
    Correct me if I'm wrong, but the User Group field in the report RSLDAPSYNC_USER only concerns SAP user groups right? This would therefore not be sufficient since I want to select the users to synchronize based on user groups in the directory.
    Thanks, Oscar

    We've used a repository constant to specify the LDAP filter for reading users / groups from the LDAP target.
    E.g. LDAP_FILTER_USERS (&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=user))
    Then we also have a constant for the LDAP_STARTING_POINT
    For our AD Group Initial Load we filter according to these settings:
    LDAP_FILTER_GROUPS = (objectclass=group)
    LDAP_STARTING_POINT_GROUPS = ou=IDMManagedGroups,ou=Groups,dc=cfstest,dc=le,dc=ac,dc=uk
    The above example only reads AD groups starting at the specified OU
    Then in a Job From LDAP Pass the LDAP URL looks like this:
    LDAP://%$rep.LDAP_HOST%:%$rep.LDAP_PORT%/%$rep.LDAP_STARTING_POINT_GROUPS%?*?SUB?%$rep.LDAP_FILTER_GROUPS%
    I hope this helps

  • Static method allowed in interface?

    Hello,
    I've written the following code:
    package a.b.c.d;
    import java.util.Map;
    public interface Adapter
    public void execute(Mapping mapping) throws Exception;
    public static Map getParameters( ) throws Exception;
    My compiler complains thusly:
    "Adapter.java": Error #: 217 : modifier static not allowed here at line 8, column 23
    Is it illegal then to declare a static method in an interface and if so why? Thanks in advance!
    -Exits

    An interface itself is just a contract that says "I will implement thus-and-such methods with such-and-such a signature." The interface has no "meat" to it, so it can't implement the static.
    Now you're thinking, if MyClass implements MyInterface, then MyClass can just have a static method that is the one on MyInterface. The problem is with how you're getting your MyInterface-type object. You can do it like this:
    MyInterface obj = new MyClass();
    obj.myStaticMethod(); //Bzzzzzzzt! blows up at compile time...or...
    MyInterface obj = someMethodThatReturnsClassImplementingMyInterface();
    obj.myStaticMethod(); //Bzzzzzt! same problemYou can't call a static method on an instance; you have to call it on the class,
    MyClass.myStaticMethod();You can't call it on the interface directly because, again, the interface has no guts inside it. There's really no reason to put a static method on an interface because that's not what interfaces are for. If MyClass needs a static, put it there.

  • How to specify for JVM the stack for ONE specific thread that invokes JNI

    Hello all!
    I'm 2 days now looking for a solution in several forums but even in Sun Java Forums nobody was able to come up with a solution. If you know a better forum to place it, please let me know.
    Description:
    I have an application that launches several threads of different types. One of them is quite specific and run a critical JNI C++ process. The remaining ones are just for controling of other stuff... When I call the application by the command line
    java -classpath ... -Xss20m -Djava.library.path ... pack.subpack.myApp
    the application usually crashes: My computer has 256MB RAM of memory that vanish in seconds and causes an OutOfMemoryException
    Sometimes the application works properly, but sometimes the memory usage goes up fast until a general crash.
    What I believe that is going on:
    When we declare -Xss20m, I undestand that for each thread the JVM will attemp to allocate more 20MB, and if I have 10 threads, it goes up to 200MB and so on; however I'd like to have 20MB just for my critical process (that is called in one specific thread) and not for any thread.
    If I try to reduce -Xss parameter to, let's say 10MB, my C++ process overflow the JVM stack for the thread.
    So, does any body have know how to solve it? Please... I need experts help!
    Thanks a lot,

  • Owner on Sales Order Defaulting to One Specific User

    When entering a Sales Order, the Owner is defaulting to the Salesrep but only for one specific rep and their BPs. If a Sales Order is entered for any BP other than the ones for this particular rep, the Owner is correctly populated with the User entering the order but. What could be causing this? There is no formatted search on the field

    Hi Christian,
    In the marketing documents
    Owner displays the current SBO User who has performed the transaction. The user should be registerd in the employee master data and the User code should be mapped which will refresh the owner code once the BP is selected.
    Buyer (Purchase )/ Sales employee (Sales) here the data is retreived from the employee mapped to the Business partner master data BP Masterdata --> General --> Field : Sales employee (Customer), Buyer ( Supplier) . i.e, an Employee when assigned to particular BP's
    Ex. If in the Purchase document you select a BP and he has EMP1 mapped in the buyer code it will be assigned with EMP1 in the purchase document and the user entering the data will be updated in the owner code

  • Can I dedicate the 5 GHz band to one specific devise?

    I've got the new Dual band n Airport Extreme (AE) that I would like to dedicate the 5GHz band to one specific devise and have all others use 2.4.  My goal is giving the most 'horsepower' to my work laptop upstairs, all others can use the 2.4.  Being on another floor, I need all the help I can get with strong connections and good performnace. 
    Short and sweet bullets include:
    Current Devices:
    -Dell laptop for work. 5GHz band card will be installed shortly.
    -iMac, Lion OS, 3 mos old.  Recently hard wired to the AE as perofrmance was spotty when connected wirelessly even though the AE is 20 ft away.
    -iPhone 4s, iPhone 4, iPad (1st gen)
    -HP printer wirelessly connected to the AE
    -An old Droid I connect to the internet once in a blue moon
    -A blue ray player (rarely use to stream Nexflix)
    -HD TV with access to Netflix, etc (rarly use)
    Smat folks will quickly notice only the laptop can access the 5GHz band given my iMac (only devise 5Ghz) is hardwired.  That will change....Apple TV will be purchased.  Also, 1 yr old son may say "hey this cord looks great, why I dont I pull it to see what falls first, the iMac or AE".  This question answers near-term questions as I expand devices and helps really prepair for my next 2-3 devices. 
    I understand the process of setup a seprate name for the 5GHz band.  Guidance needed- How do you "point" the laptop to the 5GHz band.  I've looked fo the option on my iMac (previos to hardwiring it) wiht no luck.  My chaallenge is figuring out how have the laptop read adn connect to the 5GHz band automatically...I don't have the setup to automatically have devised choose which band whey would like to use.  i've looked numerous arcieles and I can find where people describe in sufficien detail  >>>>Please be as specific as possible on each step is required to get my laptop to recogize and connect with the 5GHz band. 
    Some addtl questions
    1- Can I tell which devise is connected with an n, g, b, whatever band?  I dont want anything degreading the bandwitch of the 2.4 GH2 band. 
    Can you tell which devises are using those bands (n,g, ?) bands.  As i understand, in this specific case, if I have 20 different devisce all using the 4Ghz band,  I want to make sure my laptop gets the best performance. 
    Thanks!

    You already have assigned a separate name to the 5 GHz band on the router, so to have a Mac connect to that band, you would do the following:
    Open System Preferences (gear icon) on the dock
    Open Network
    Click on AirPort or Wi-Fi
    Click Advanced at the lower right
    Make sure that the name of the 5 GHz network is first in line at the top of the connection order list. Drag it to the top if it's not already there.
    Delete any other networks that you no longer need by clicking on them to highlight them, and then clicking the - (minus) button at the bottom of the list.
    Make sure that there is a check mark next to "Remember networks this computer has joined"
    No other boxes should be checked
    Then open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access, locate the listing for the networks that you no longer needed, and delete the entry for each of them.
    I would like to see how (b/g or n) my other devises are connecting to the Airport Extreme.
    Open AirPort Utillty 5.x, select the AirPort Extreme, and click Manual Setup
    Click on Wireless Clients about 2/3 of the way down the page
    The window will display the MAC address of each wireless device along with info about the connection. You will need to do a bit of investigative work to figure out which MAC address matches up with each wireless device.
    My understanding is that a router will use the lowest of the connections (if one devise is connecting via b, all other devises will connect b).
    No, that is a common tale that we hear, but it is not correct. Each wireless device will connect to either 2.4 GHz or 5 Ghz based on its capabilities. It will do the same as far as whether it connects at "n", "g", or "b" speeds. For example, my laptop connects at "n" speeds while my old iPhone connects at "g" speed.  The slower iPhone connection has virtually no impact on the "n" connection with the laptop.
    I used a wi-fi analyzer to determine the best channel, and it indicated chanel 14 was the best.
    If you are in the U.S. or Canada, then you can only use channels 1-11 on the 2.4 GHz band. The U.K. uses channels 1-13.

  • One specific website won't load

    While browsing the internet on my laptop (late 2011 MacBook Pro, 2.4 GHz Intel Core i5 processor), I have one specific website that will not load. It's worked in the past, but has suddenly stopped working.
    My software and OS are up-to-date (OS X 10.9.5), and I've scanned for viruses (Intego VirusBarrier). I've tried multiple networks (WiFi only, no ethernet), haven't changed my network or firewall settings, and have tried disabling my firewall (Intego NetBarrier). I've tried multiple browsers (Safari, Firefox, and Chrome), reset Safari to clear my cookies and cache, and have disabled the one browser extension I use.
    I've been able to access the site on other computers and on my iPhone, all on my primary network. I've opened the terminal and used the host command, and I know my computer is able to interpret the site's IP (something about verifying the DSN?). As best I can tell, this is not an issue with the website, but with my laptop.
    Any ideas?

    I have a few suggestions to try:
    1) Completely uninstall VirusBarrier.  There is simply no need for additional antivirus or firewall products on a Mac with a current OS version.  Third-party firewall and antivirus products cause more problems on Macs than the ever prevent.
    Next, do the following side-by side on both your Mac that can't visit the site and one that can.  Compare what you see between the two.
    2) Check "System Preferences" > "Network" > "Advanced" > "Proxies".  None of the boxes should be selected under "select a protocol".
    2) Check "System Preferences" > "Network" > "Advanced" > "DNS".
    3) Open a terminal window, enter the following command and hit return:
    cat /etc/hosts
    You should only see the following entries:
    # Host Database
    # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
    # when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
    127.0.0.1 localhost
    255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
    ::1            localhost
    fe80::1%lo0 localhost
    If you see additional entries let us know.
    After comparing your Proxy, DNS, and hosts file of a Mac that can reach the site and the one that can't, let us know what differences you see.

  • Edge Transport Server Fails DNS Query When Emailing to one Specific Domain

    This issue occurs for the same domain across three different edge transport servers.
    All servers are Windows 2008 STD SP2, Exchange 2007 SP1 U9.  Emails are delivered using DNS connector from edge.  Emails to this one specific domain would sit in the retry queue with DNS query error until NDR was generated.  Connectivity Logging generated the following:
    2009-09-01T19:52:23.539Z,08CBEDE9198E2DC3,SMTP,subdomain.domain.com,>,DNS server returned ErrorRetry reported by 208.241.124.200
    2009-09-01T19:52:23.539Z,08CBEDE9198E2DC3,SMTP,subdomain.domain.com,-,The DNS query for 'DnsConnectorDelivery':'subdomain.domain.com':'cd771f71-77a3-4aca-b002-86f477816910' failed with error: ErrorRetry
    I changed the servers DNS settings to different servers with the same response.  Validated that manual MX lookups worked, and that I could telnet to any of the three MX records and deliver mail via telnet.
    I did a packet capture and received the following:
    12    32.280037    172.28.16.55    208.241.124.200    DNS    Standard query AAAA SMTPSERVER.subdomain.domain.com
    So what is happening is the Edge servers are only performing IP6 lookups, and throughout the log, only for subdomain.domain.com do they NOT perform a regular IP4 A record lookup.  I then went about disabling TCP/IP6 as per this article:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/network/cc987595.aspx
    this stated to do the following:
    Alternately, from the Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 desktop, click Start , point to Programs , point to Accessories , and then click Command Prompt . At the command prompt, type netsh interface ipv6 uninstall .
    To remove the IPv6 protocol for Windows XP with no service packs installed, do the following:
    Log on to the computer with a user account that has local administrator privileges.
    From the Windows XP desktop, click Start , point to Programs , point to Accessories , and then click Command Prompt .
    At the command prompt, type ipv6 uninstall .
    Unlike Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, IPv6 in Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 cannot be uninstalled. However, you can disable IPv6 in Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 by doing one of the following:
    In the Network Connections folder, obtain properties on all of your connections and adapters and clear the check box next to the Internet Protocol version 6 (TCP/IPv6) component in the list under This connection uses the following items .
    This method disables IPv6 on your LAN interfaces and connections, but does not disable IPv6 on tunnel interfaces or the IPv6 loopback interface.
    Add the following registry value (DWORD type) set to 0xFF:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip6\Parameters\DisabledComponents
    This method disables IPv6 on all your LAN interfaces, connections, and tunnel interfaces but does not disable the IPv6 loopback interface. You must restart the computer for this registry value to take effect.
    I did the above, and still, the Edge Transport servers would only perform AAAA lookups, and messages would sit in the queue.
    As temporary workaround, created new send connector with the three available MX hosts as possible smarthosts for subdomain.domain.com, and this allowed email flow.
    I've tried disabling the TCPIP6, and still doesnt work.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Allen and Paul,
    we experience problems in receiving mails from senders with this Exchage server problem. When we are aware of the problem, we send them the above mentioned link and ask them to make adjustments. Then afterwards usually mail arrives without any problems.
    The problem for us is that it seems as if the problem grows. More and more mail does not arrive on our mailadresses (mine for example is [email protected]) And not all of the senders recieve notifications that mail cannot be delivered. As you can imagine
    this situation is unacceptable and damaging our customer relations.
    Is there anything WE can do? (apart from sending them the information to make adjustements in their Exchange servers...)
    I hope you can help us...
    Thanks in advance
    Leonard
    Hi Leonard,
    as stated below we where experiencing the same problem with one of our customers. Seeing that it's a DNS related problem we suggested to the customer to change or add an additional DNS service through i.e. dyndns.com. After adding the current DNS records
    to the new DNS service mail started coming in from every customer that had problems.
    So for your clients i would suggest a similar solution, it helped over here at least.
    Kind regards,
    Philipp

  • Can you assign multiple customer masters to one Business Partner in R/3?

    We are trying to configure SAP Business Partners in ECC5.0 but it seems the relationship between a business partner and a customer master is one-to-one so a business partenr cannot have multiple customers (table BD001 only allows for a single entry).  Does anyone know if it's possible to assign multiple customer masters to one business partner?  If so, is there any documentation available?
    Many thanks.

Also I've noticed when I've re-published occasionally it will show the mobile version on my desktop and not the desktop version??? no idea why that's happening so I've had to turn that off. any explanation on why that is happening would also be much appreciated.

    I haven't received an answer as of yet, I'll post t on here when I do. I de-activated the mobile site because it's my clients site so he needs it to be operational during the day. I hope someone gives me an answer soon.

  • Use Time Machine on ONLY one specific folder?

    I wish to use the Time Machine function to backup only one specific folder on my computer, the DROPBOX folder.
    How can I implement this and inform Time Machine of my choice?
    According to my first investigations, I only have the choice to select folders to EXCLUDE. This makes the setup of Time Machine unconfortable.
    Any advice?

    I agree with Jeffrey Jones2 above .
    Makes no sense to backup the dropbox folder alone, Dropbox It is "cloud storage" and has its own backup. Dropbox keeps a snapshot every time you save a file. You can preview and restore.
    If you go to the DROPBOX website you can view deleted file from the trash can icon (see below.)
    From there it is a matter of Restore the file. This would work for accidentally deleted files,  there maybe a 30day archive limit so read the small print for details.
    If it is imperative to your backup plan,  just drag and drop  your folder to any external storage device, just not the Time Machine HD/partition.

  • Just updated my iPhone 4 from IOS 6.1.3 to 7.1.2, I know I am behind the times, but I got there eventually! All seems well but I have one specific problem and hope someone can offer a helpful suggestion.

    Just updated my iPhone 4 from IOS 6.1.3 to 7.1.2, I know I am behind the times, but I got there eventually! All seems well but I have one specific problem and hope someone can offer a helpful suggestion.
    On opening the app "Find my iPhone" I add my password and sign in, to be greeted with a screen that says;
    "Update Find My iPhone. A new version of Find My iPhone is available from the App. Store. You must install the update to continue using the app. Update now"
    On hitting the "Update now" button I'm taken to the relevant page on the App Store, to be told that I cannot update as it needs IOS8 to be able to continue and as my iPhone is only a 4 cannot install IOS8.
    I'm left going around in circles. The only thing would be to delete the app, but looks like I could not re-install the version I would need. Any body have any thoughts or suggestions? (Apart from updating my phone, I have a few months left on the contract!)
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, thanks for the suggestion. I have tried as you suggested, and when opening the "purchased" apps some have the icloud logo next to them, but I only have "OPEN" against "Find My iPhone". When opening it up, it goes through the same routine; needs to be updated before proceeding, and wouldn't update because I don't have IOS8.
    Anything else I could try, or am I doomed!
    All of your help is much appreciated, thanks

  • How to select a substring in oracle up to a more than one specific character

    How to select a substring in oracle up to a more than one specific character
    for ex : 121.051^NP: FAMILY PRACTICE  ( trim the values before ^ )
                121.051^*NP: FAMILY PRACTICE (trim the value before *).
    with below function I can only get rid of ^ , I want both the specific characters ^ and ^* to be removed at the same time.   
    SUBSTR(p.phys_sub_grp_2_desc,INSTR(p.phys_sub_grp_2_desc, '^') +1)

    Another option is to boldly replace 'em:
    SQL> with t as (
      2  select '121.051^NP: FAMILY PRACTICE' str from dual union
      3  select '121.051^*NP: FAMILY PRACTICE' from dual
      4  )
      5  --
      6  -- actuel query:
      7  --
      8  select substr( replace(str, '*')
      9               , instr(replace(str, '*'), '^')+1
    10               ) str
    11  from   t;
    STR
    NP: FAMILY PRACTICE
