Storage management workflow

Hello,
I am new to LR and i need some help in finding an efficient way to manage my storage management.
I have LR running on a SSD and also have an 1TB internal hardrive.
I am planning on setting up a 4TB RAID mirror set up, just wanted to know your advice on this?
Would i save everything on the raid i.e Lightroom catalogue, photos, final edited images, (essentially everything) ... or is this not a good workflow for storage management?
Would greatly appreciate any advice & also any other alternatives on how to go about storage management.

Normally, with Lightroom, you don't save a copy of your final edited images on your hard disks, as the final edited image can always be displayed and created by Lightroom; in other words, your exported final images are considered temporary, and deleted once their use is completed (e-mail, web, print, etc.) knowing you can re-create them again exactly as before by exporting another copy.
Thanks for your reply but Im not sure i follow.. So if i wanted to access a final edit, how will i do so?
In regards to my previous post, would you say the mirror RAID set up is sufficient?

HP Storage Management Pack 3.0

Hello,
Is any one successful in getting diagram view of HP storage devices using HP Storage Management Pack 3.0 for SCOM 2012. I could successfully send SNMP test traps from storage nodes to SCOM server. My configuration is Gateway server in an untrusted
domain and have trouble connecting HP Storage Management Pack User Configuration Tool.exe
application to SCOM server from GW server domain. It is not clear which port is used by this tool/application to communicate with SCOM server. Any pointer in this regard is highly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Rajemma,
we have installed MP Version 3.0.1 on SCOM 2102 SP1 UR3.
Unfortunately I donot receive the SNMP Traps, getting following error instead:

Intel Matrix Storage Manager disables Windows Update and Windows Validation on Windows 7 64-bit

I have a Lenovo ThinkPad R61 8918CTO on which I did a clean install of Windows 7 Ultimate SP1 (64-bit) on a new Seagate Momentus XT 750GB drive. The installation was trouble-free, as were all of the post-install Windows Updates.
Then I installed ThinkVantage System Update 4.03 and used it to install most of the available Lenovo updates. Big mistake. I'll spare you a detailed account of the hours I wasted troubleshooting, rolling back to previous restore points, and doing more troubleshooting, but it turns out that installing Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver v. 8.9.2.1002 caused Windows Update and Windows Validation to fail.
Symptoms: Windows Update control panel can't check for updates and reports that the Windows Update service isn't running when it actually is. Online Windows Validation fails and the standalone Windows Validation utility won't install. Microsoft programs that require a validated copy of Windows (e.g., Microsoft Security Essentials) won't install.
Solution: Roll back the driver for the relevant SATA controller to the previous driver.
I've reinstalled ThinkVantage System Update 4.03 and hidden the proposed Intel Matrix Storage Manager update; since then, I've used it to complete my Lenovo updates without issue.
I hope this post will help other people with this problem find the solution a lot faster than it took me!

This happened after installing a new advanced format drive with 4k-byte sectors, I'd guess. If the storage driver doesn't report the physical sector size to Windows, update fails.
I just ran across this myself (again) putting Win 7 on a T400.
I don't know why this is still going on. It may be that the update lists for older machines still have pre-AF-drive drivers listed.
FYI, another fix is going to the Intel site and installing the latest Matrix Storage Manager AHCI driver. This may be more desirable than rolling back to an older driver in some cases.

P55-CD53, how to install SATA AHCI drivers and Matrix Storage Manager?

Please excuse my noobness as this is for my first PC build and much of it is Greek to me, but could someone please inform/educate me as to what the following drivers (link) are for and which need to be installed after a fresh installation of Windows 7 Pro x64? Do I need to install all of them because some of these appear to be redundant, just from different manufacturers, or am I mistaken? I have a single 500GB HDD but will probably add more down the road.

Thanks.
After booting from the Windows 7 disc, I selected Repair Windows, Load Drivers. Which specific controllers do I need to install for the P55-CD53 MB since there are multiple controllers listed for each of the four SATA compressed files?
Considering the multiple files and multiple controllers, is there no one out there with a P55-CD53 that has AHCI mode enabled that can give dumbed down instructions on how to do so?
The manual states "Select the appropriate RAID controller and press enter." Well... which one is the appropriate controller? Am I suppose to load the driver for all the AHCI controllers if that's even possible?
For the Intel P55 AHCI / RAID Drivers compressed file, these are the controllers available within F6flpy64\iaAHCI.inf:
Intel(R) ESB2 SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) ICH 10D/DO SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) ICH10R SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) ICH7M/MDH SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) ICH7R/DH SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) ICH8M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) ICH8R/DH/DO SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) ICH9R/DO/DH SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) PCH SATA AHCI Controller
Intel(R) PCHM SATA AHCI Controller 4 Port
Intel(R) PCHM SATA AHCI Controller 6 Port
Also, regarding the dual BIOS controls for SATA/IDE/RAID settings previously mentioned, I believe SATA ports 1-6 are controlled via Intel and 7,8 are controlled via Jmicron. Considering my HDD is currently plugged into SATA 1, Jmicron probably isn't necessary for the moment.
Edit:
Turns out that none of the drivers for the controllers listed in iaAHCI.inf could be installed. However, I went ahead and installed the drivers listed for all the controllers in iaStor.inf. I reinstalled Windows 7 to get rid of the BSOD. I then installed the chipset drivers and Intel Matrix Storage Manager.

Unable to start Storage Manager Engine on OES2SP3

Hi,
I just installed Storage Manager on a OES2SP3 x64 server and after what seems to be a correct installation, the Engine doesn't start.
Does anyone if is there any undocumented dependency or something I should know to be able to start it?
I've been also looking for some log file, but it seems that "/etc/init.d/nsmengined start" doesn leave any log.
Any idea?
Regards
Jose Luis

Jose Luis,
Are you running anything else on the server that uses port 3009? Port
conflict is one reason for the NSM Engine to shut itself down.
Please send an email to storagemanager-at-novell.com so we can help you
sort out this issue.
thanks,
NSM Development

RMAN integrated with Tivoli Storage Manager

Environment
===========
Two Node RAC Production DBs on 10.2.0.4
Platform : Solaris
RMAN is the only backup tool i've ever worked with. I've come across OTN articles which discuss TSM along with RMAN. Is there any advantage at all in using TSM with RMAN ? Or, Is it just marketing gimmick by IBM?

Our strategy:
1--Monday ------------------->Level 0 backup (1:00am)
2--Tuesday----->     Level1
3--Wednesday----->     Level1
4--Thursday------------------>Level 0 backup (1:00am)
5--Friday----->     Level1
6--Saturday----->     Level1
0--Sunday ----->     Level1Our RMAN backup pieces got to an NFS mount . Every monday morning the Level 0 backup is copied to Tape by Sysadmins and kept for 3 months. So, where does Tivoli storage manager come into picture ? Does TSM do copying the backup pieces from Disk to Tape part ?

Scanner calibration for colour-managed workflow

I would like to do a decent calibration of my Epson V750 Pro scanner to achieve a colour-managed workflow. I have the latest version X-Rite i1 Photo Pro 2 calibration kit, and although this enables me to calibrate my monitor and printer, it does not support scanner calibration. I do have Silverfast Ai Studio which includes a scanner calibration facility - is that the best available to me or are there any other options, possibly using the i1 spectrophotometer as I know that it used to be possible to carry out calibration with the older versions of that equipment? Other than that, I'm using an Espon 3880 printer, running Vista x64 and using Photoshop CS5.

Mike is probably right, the Epson profiles available in the Epson scanner sw are close enough. I;ve never seen any ******** about scanner output in this forum.

Oracle's 10gR2 Automated Storage Management implementation on CentOS 4.1

Actually there are several nice articles on Oracle Technical Network
devoted to the same topic. Whats new may be said ?
The target of message is to highlight the optimal sequence of steps
required to bring Oracle10g (10.2.0.1) ASM-database up on CentOS4.1 , placing ASM instance and serviced databases in different Oracle Homes.
Oracleasm library install is done immediately after creating "oracle"
linux account and "dba" group to be ready for ASM Instance creating during
the first Installer run supposed to build it. ASM instance for disks and disks
group management is created the first by Installer along with the disks group
for database supposed to be built during the second run of Installer and to be
placed into recently created disks group.
I. Oracle 10gR2 ASM and ASMLib 2.0 I/O.
1.Install CentOS 4.1
2.Run as root:
# groupadd dba # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
# groupadd oinstall # group owner of Oracle files
# useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
# mkdir -p /u02/oradata/wtfdata
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u02
OTN instruction:-
Before installing Automatic Storage Management, it is recommended that you install the optional add-on Automatic Storage Management support library, ASMLib. ASMLib is an application program interface (API) Oracle that is aimed at simplifying the interface between the operating system and the database, and to exploit the capabilities and strengths of storage arrays provided by different vendors.ASMLib provides an alternative interface for the Automatic Storage Management-enabled kernel to discover and access block devices. It provides storage and operating system vendors the opportunity to supply extended storage-related features. These features provide benefits such as improved performance and greater data integrity.
OTN instruction ends.
3.To install ASMLIB 2.0 run as root:-
# rpm -Uvh oracleasm-2.6.9-11.ELsmp-2.0.0-1.i686.rpm \
oracleasmlib-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm \
oracleasm-support-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm
Now you get /etc/init.d/oracleasm ready to go.
Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver:-
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm configure
Default user to own the driver interface [oracle]: oracle
Default group to own the driver interface [dba]: dba
Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Fix permissions of Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: [ OK ]
Scanning system for ASM disks: [ OK ]
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm enable
Create ASM disks as desired utilizing command:
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VLM0X /dev/sdx
Tune /etc/sysctl.conf,/etc/security/limits.conf,/etc/pam.d/login, /etc/profile.
and oracle's shell environment as advised in [1].
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
OTN instructions:-
Its recommended that you install Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home, regardless of whether you plan to only have one or multiple database instances.Installing Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home helps ensure higher availability and manageability.
With separate Oracle homes, you can upgrade Automatic Storage Management and databases independently, and you can remove database software without impacting the Automatic Storage Management instance. Ensure that the Automatic Storage Management version is the same or later than the Oracle Database version.If an Automatic Storage Management installation does not already exist and you select the Oracle Universal Installer option to install and configure Automatic Storage Management only, then Oracle Universal Installer installs Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home.
OTN instruction ends.
Select " Advanced installation" and
create ASM instance in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
Create disk group during this run .
Exit installer.
$ ./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and create new ASM-database placed into existing disk's group
in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_2 .
Modify ~oracle/.bash_profile correspondently.Relogin as oracle.
Next:-
$ sqlplus /nolog
SQL> conn / as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> shutdown immediate;
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount;
ORACLE instance started.

Database mounted.
SQL> alter database archivelog;

SQL> alter database MastDB flashback on;

SQL> alter database open;
Database altered.
Open Enterpise Manager console.(Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control URL
http://ServerCentOS41:1158/em). Create new disk's group for flashback recovery area and modify corresponding value on Recovery Settings page of EM.
System startup in this case should look like:-

II. Oracle 10gR2 ASM and Standard Linux I/O.
This method creates Oracle database files on raw character devices managed by ASM
using standard Linux I/O system calls.It requires to create RAW devices for all
disk partitions used by ASM.
1.Install CentOS 4.1
2.Run as root:
# groupadd dba # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
# groupadd oinstall # group owner of Oracle files
# useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
# mkdir -p /u02/oradata/data
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u02
Just as an example create 4 partitions:
/dev/hda6,/dev/hdc6 5 GB each one
/dev/hda7,/dev/hdc7 3 GB each one
Create raw devices modifying file /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices as follows:
/dev/raw/raw1 /dev/hda6
/dev/raw/raw2 /dev/hdc6
/dev/raw/raw3 /dev/hda7
/dev/raw/raw4 /dev/hdc7
Put in /etc/rc.d/rc.local
chown oracle:dba /dev/raw/raw*
chmod 660 /dev/raw/raw*
I was experiencing problems with loosing "oracle:dba" permissions after Linux
reboot. Oracle's raw device came up with "root:disk" ownership after reboot.
Restart Linux
Run as root:-
# service rawdevices restart
Tune /etc/sysctl.conf,/etc/security/limits.conf,/etc/pam.d/login,
/etc/profile and oracle's shell environment as advised in [1].
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and

PS where are you planning to install to with only 55MB available anyway?

Oracle 10gR2 Automated Storage Management implementation on CentOS 4.1

Actually there are several nice articles on Oracle Technical Network devoted to the same topic. Whats new may be said ?
The target of this message is to highlight the optimal sequence of steps required to bring Oracle10g (10.2.0.1) ASM-database up on CentOS4.1 , placing ASM instance and serviced databases in different Oracle Homes.Oracleasm library install is done immediately after creating "oracle" linux account and "dba" group to be ready for ASM Instance creating during the first Installer run supposed to build it. ASM instance for disks and disks group management is created the first by Installer along with the disks group for database supposed to be built during the second run of Installer and to be placed into recently created disks group.
I. Oracle 10gR2 ASM and ASMLib 2.0 I/O.
1.Install CentOS 4.1
2.Run as root:
# groupadd dba # group of users to be granted SYSDBA system privilege
# groupadd oinstall # group owner of Oracle files
# useradd -c "Oracle software owner" -g oinstall -G dba oracle
# passwd oracle
# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
# mkdir -p /u02/oradata/wtfdata
# chown -R oracle.oinstall /u02
OTN instruction:-
Before installing Automatic Storage Management, it is recommended that you install the optional add-on Automatic Storage Management support library, ASMLib. ASMLib is an application program interface (API) Oracle that is aimed at simplifying the interface between the operating system and the database, and to exploit the capabilities and strengths of storage arrays provided by different vendors ASMLib provides an alternative interface for the Automatic Storage Management-enabled kernel to discover and access block devices. It provides storage and operating system vendors the opportunity to supply extended storage-related features. These features provide benefits such as improved performance and greater data integrity.
OTN instruction ends.
3.To install ASMLIB 2.0 run as root:-
# rpm -Uvh oracleasm-2.6.9-11.ELsmp-2.0.0-1.i686.rpm \
oracleasmlib-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm \
oracleasm-support-2.0.0-1.i386.rpm
Now you get /etc/init.d/oracleasm ready to go.
Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver:-
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm configure
Default user to own the driver interface [oracle]: oracle
Default group to own the driver interface [dba]: dba
Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Fix permissions of Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: [ OK ]
Scanning system for ASM disks: [ OK ]
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm enable
Create ASM disks as desired utilizing command:
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm createdisk VLM0X /dev/sdx
Tune /etc/sysctl.conf,/etc/security/limits.conf,/etc/pam.d/login, /etc/profile.
and oracle's shell environment as advised in [1].
Login as oracle:-
$ cd /tmp/database
$./runInstaller
OTN instructions:-
Its recommended that you install Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home, regardless of whether you plan to only have one or multiple database instances.Installing Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home helps ensure higher availability and manageability.With separate Oracle homes, you can upgrade Automatic Storage Management and databases independently, and you can remove database software without impacting the Automatic Storage Management instance. Ensure that the Automatic Storage Management version is the same or later than the Oracle Database version.If an Automatic Storage Management installation does not already exist and you select the Oracle Universal Installer option to install and configure Automatic Storage Management only, then Oracle Universal Installer installs Automatic Storage Management in its own Oracle home.
OTN instruction ends.
Select " Advanced installation" and
create ASM instance in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
Create disk group during this run .
Exit installer.
$ ./runInstaller
Select " Advanced installation" and create new ASM-database placed into existing disk's group in $ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_2 .
Modify ~oracle/.bash_profile correspondently.Relogin as oracle.
Next:-
$ sqlplus /nolog
SQL> conn / as sysdba
Connected.
SQL> shutdown immediate;
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> startup mount;
ORACLE instance started.

Variable Size 88082024 bytes
Database Buffers 188743680 bytes
Redo Buffers 7168000 bytes
Database mounted.
SQL> alter database archivelog;

SQL> alter database open;
Database altered.
Open Enterpise Manager console.(Enterprise Manager 10g Database Control URL
http://ServerCentOS41:1158/em). Create new disk's group for flashback recovery area and modify corresponding value on Recovery Settings page of EM.
System startup in this case should look like:-

Storage Manager and Windows 2012 Deduplication

Does anyone have Storage Manager working with the deduplicated volumes in Windows 2012? It works fine on 2012 itself, but when I attempt to move data to or from a deduplicated volume I get the following error:
182: the requested operation is not supported.
The error seems pretty self explanatory. But I'm really hoping there's a way to get it working. We're planning to do a complete teardown and rebuild of our storage and this could be a deal breaker for whether we use Storage Manager at all to manage user data.
Engine Version: 3.1.0.4
Windows 2012 Standard
Active Directory Schema Not Extended

scunha,
Could you send an email to [email protected] explaining what
you're doing and providing some details of your deduplication settings?
We'd like to look at this in more detail.

HP Storage Management Pack v4.0 for Operations Manager

Hi everyone,
I've installed HP StoreFront Manager MP for Microsoft 4.0 (HP Storage Management integration with MS System Center) on a Ops Mgr 2012 R2 Server
The diagram view of the two P4500 G2 StoreVirtual Appliances are shown without issue.
However I cannot get any alerts, error alerts, events, warning events showing in the HP Storage or HP StoreVirtual Storage MP folders
I've created new alert/event view/criteria "show data related to: HP Storevirtual SNMP trape catcher rule ALL
But this also shows nothing.
I've followed the HPStorageManagementPackforSystemCenterUserGuide-4.0.pdf to no avail.
Any ideas most appreciated.
Configuration as follows:
Installed HPStorageManagementPackforSystemCenter.exe on the Ops Mgr 2012 R2 Server:
SCOM_MP_V4.0_Microsoft_Windows_Server_2003_2008_W32_2008x64_2008_R2_Win_Server_2012_R2_T4282-10516
https://h20392.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=System_Center
Chose the HP Storage MP install option: OpsMgr Server: requires Management Server deployed on this server
Ticked the "HP StoreVirtual Storage" component
Executed HP Storage Management Pack User Configuration Tool.exe
Added the IP of Ops Mgr 2012 R2 management Server
Added the 2 IPs of the HP StoreVirtual Storage appliances
Configured SNMP community string as 'public' for each appliance
It shows two the discovered 2 storage systems
In Ops Manager 2012 R2
Authoring / object discoveries, enabled the following rules, saved to a new MP:
HP StoreVirtual Cache Discovery Rule
HP StoreVirtual Drive Discovery Rule
HP StoreVirtual Network Device Discovery Rule
HP StoreVirtual Power Supply Discovery Rule
HP StoreVirtual Discovery Rule
HP StoreVirtual System FAN Discovery Rule
HP StoreVirtual SNMP Trap Capture Rule
In the Ops Mgr 2012 R2 Console, the HP StoreVirtual Storage MP Digram View shows the cluster, two p4500 appliances with cache, drives, fans, network devices and power supplies all green
SNMP on Ops Mgr 2012 R2 Server
Trap community name public
Trap destinations
localhost
IP of Ops Mgr 2012 R2 server
Security, send auth trap public community
Accept SNMP packets from IP hosting the Hp Storevirtual Centralized Management Console
SNMP and SNMP trap services started
HP Storage MP server service started
On the CMC Server SNMP windows service config is:
Community name public
Trap destination IP of Ops Mgr 2012 R2 Server
Security, send auth trap public community
Accept SNMP packets from any host
SNMP CMC settings for SAN Management Group
SNMP general settings, Access control (IPs of Ops Mgr 2012 Server and CMC server)
Trap recipient (IP of Ops Mgr 2012 R2 Server, SNMP v1)

Hi,
Can you check windows event and see what error message appears?
I highly recommend you follow the HP Storage Management Pack for System Center User Guide.

Hierarchical entities view in Manage Workflow

Hi! In my 9.3.1. planning application users with Administrator role can choose between hierarchical and flat views of entities in the Manage Workflow screen but users with Interactive User role only see entities in the flat view with no option for hierarchical view of entities. Is it a standard limitation of Hyperion Planning or is it fixable? I would be very grateful for any ideas!
