Support for BusinessObjects DataServices on VMware?

Hi Guys
Does anyone know if BusinessObjects Dataservices is supported to run on a virtualized platform, like VMware?
Is it supported for Production and/or non-production systems?
Best regards
Tom Bo

Tom,
I'd recommend you take a look at the below link for the official VMware support guidelines:

SDK support for BusinessObjects Mobile Android

Dear All,
I have read a useful document for BusinessObjects Mobile IOS recently:What is new in BusinessObjects Mobile BI iOS SDK 5.0 – Part 1 of ASUG Webcast
However, we can hardly find any SDK document for Android, so could anyone shed light on whether we have similar solution on Android? What if Android customer wish to customize their logo, icon, apps etc, how do we deal with it?
Thanks a lot,
Sophie

No specific plans at this time for x86 Android.

VMWare Fusion support for Windows 7?

Does anyone know when VMWare Fusion will come out with an update that supports Windows 7?
I've heard that it can/does work, you just have to choose "Windows Vista" from the list of OSs and make a few tweaks. Still, I don't like using anything in any sort of beta so am hoping they'll have an update out soon that has official support for Windows 7 (i.e. it shows up as an OS choice in the list).
Anybody know?
Thanks.

Is vmware supported for production environment ?

Hi All,
Is vmware supported for production environment ?
Thanks
Sunny

All,
I'm glad someone has outlined the clear support statement that has existed for sometime between VMware - SAP. For those of you still running on Oracle, here is some good news:
Wording towards SAP Customers requesting support:
"Oracle, VMware and SAP are working collaboratively to ensure support for SAP customers that use VMware virtualization for SAP solutions running Oracle DB. Functional tests are currently being performed to verify supportability of the SAP&Oracle stack. Details will be made available in SAP note 1173954 u201CSupport of Oracle for VMwareu201D after tests have been completed. It is expected that in Q1 2010, ESX 3.5 and later releases including vSphere 4 will be supported by Oracle and SAP according to Oracleu2019s metalink note 249212."
There is no reason why x86 platform today cannot run the most demanding workloads on VMware vSphere in a production environment. But has noted earlier, don't get hung up on "production" - you have heaps of TestDev, SolMan TestDev, sandboxes, gateways, application servers etc that should immediately by put into a VM - once you are comfortable with your solution in-house, I'm sure you will move production instances into a VM as well.
Below are some great resources for you to use in your quest to virtualize SAP on VMware:

VMWare support for guest OS

Hello all,
please could anyone suggest what MAC OS are supported on VMWare guest OS.
i've checked the supported guest OS list in vmware fusion, they menitoned about 150 OS which include Snow Leapord but mac desktop OS is not specifically mentioned.
i am looking to have something similar
mac mini with vmware fusion installed and would like to have mac desktop OS as guest OS
please could anyone clarify if this is supported.
regards
ravi

Hi,
currently no Mac OSX client version is supported as guest in any virtualization apps, not in VMWare nor in Parallels.
Only the OSX Snow Leopard Server is supported as guest.
Apple does not allow virtualization of OSX client version and VMWare and Parallels abide by that rule.

Is smb 3.0 already supported for exchange 2013

Hello,
We are looking to deploy exchange 2013. We have a netapp storage and vmware environment.
I was wondering if smb 3.0 is already supported for exchange 2013. I read in a blog of 2012 that it wasn't supported at the time. We would like to use it instead of a iscsi lun.

Hi,
Based on my knowledge, it is still not supported for Exchange 2013 up to now.
Here is an article for your reference, please refer to the "Exchange storage requirements" section.

Nomachine NX/FreeNX, can't get 3D accelearation support for Virtualbox

Greetings to everyone!
I have a problem, which hopefuly someone knows how to solve?
I've installed everything I needed for one small headless testing server based on Arch linux (x64, kernel 2.6.32 and X.Org X Server 1.7.3.902 (1.7.4 RC 2)), and have setup only basic stuff and services (I've attached rc.conf file)
In addition I've setup also a desktop enviroment based on LXDE (in case of problems but it's stared manualy only when need and by NXclient or ssh -X), NVIDIA drivers (v. 190.53), VirtualBox 3.1.2 and VMWare Server 2.0.2 (x64).
When I'm working directly on computer everything is working just fine and I have support for hardware acceleration in Virtualbox, but when I try to use it from remote location (eg. using NX client, or using X forwarding over SSH), I can't get access to 3D features of VirtualBox (3D acceleration and 2D acceleration buttons are greyed out!), also when I try to access NVIDIA settings panel it says "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." Well I'm pretty sure I have drivers installed, but is there any chance they are badly configured?
I really Arch linux and would like use it as my main distro and really would like if someone can help me find a solution for this problem, (especially knowing that the same things IS working on my second and much older computer based on Intel Pentium 4 (2.0 Ghz), ASUS P4B533 Asus GF4 MX440 graphic card Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS), and that it's a bit frustrating
The newer computer is based on AMD Athlon II X2 240, Gigabyte MA770-UD3, and Gigabyte 7300GS graphic card.
I've tried so many tutorials, many found on this forum, tried with different GUI (KDE, GNOME, LXDE) in case i "skipped" something and nothing helped me..
Checked everything (I know) twice and even more, but no success.
Is there some way to use hardware acceleration over remote sessions , am I missing something or is "the resistance futile" ?
I'm sending my rc.conf, xorg.conf file, so if someone has more expirience with it?
Thank you.

Greetings to you all from Zagreb (Croatia)

The thing is I don't have any problem when I'm working in front of computer, only when using remote sessions (like NX, VNC, etc.).
I can install additions, but I can't select 3D acceleration checkbox (it is disabled - grayed out) in Virtualbox, or use any graphic hardware advanced feature on computer when I'm using remote session, but it's enabled when using local session.
Even when I try (when connected over NX) commands like glxinfo | grep render
it says something like "not using direct rendering", looks like it's not even using nvidia driver, output show mesa driver is in use?
Could it be something with remote access, remote access rights or something like that?
During installations was following mostly tutorials from Arch Wiki.
Maybe I missconfigured something, or didn't configured at all?

Dell Equallogic SAN HIT Kit support for SAP in Linux 11.2

Hello Everyone,
I would like to use an Equallogic SAN as storage in SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11.2. Is the Equallogic SAN supported in Linux when using the HIT Kit to provide MPIO and snapshot support? The article from thorsten.staerk describes Equallogic SAN + Linux + native iSCSI (no mention of the HIT Kit). I understand that there are restrictions on using third party kernel modules.
My understanding is that the Equallogic MPIO driver will provide a faster, more efficient, connection to the SAN along with additional features.

From the documentation "Installs a compatible prebuilt kernel module, if available. Otherwise, the installation script loads the Dynamic Kernel Module Support (DKMS) package and compiles the Dell EqualLogic-supplied kernel module."
EqualLogic Integration: Installation and Configuration of Host Integration Tools for Linux – HIT/Linux
The Dell EqualLogic HIT/Linux MPIO software consists of two components:
1. The EqualLogic Host Connection Manager daemon, ehcmd, which monitors the iSCSI session state and the configuration of the Linux server and PS Series group. Running in the background, the ehcmd daemon uses the Open-iSCSI management tool (iscsiadm) to add, remove, or modify iSCSI sessions to maintain an optimal number of iSCSI sessions. It also gathers information on the volume layout from the PS Series group.
2. A loadable kernel module, dm-switch, which implements a new Device Mapper target to the multipath devices. Based on the volume layout on the array members, the dm-switch module routes each I/O to the optimal path within the PS Series group.

The use of binary-only Linux kernel modules or drivers on the same server as SAP software is not recommended by SAP.

I'll take a moment to provide an update on the solution. There were some issues with the initial configuration of the in guest iSCSI volumes. If I had to start from scratch, I would run all the storage through VMware. The last round of software updates appears to have resolved a potentially serious issue with iSCSI disconnects. iSCSI has run perfectly for two months now. I'll consider the issue resolved once I have six months without any iSCSI issues.
One remaining issue is that LVM won't initialize properly without implementing a custom init script. The init script work-around is simple and it works.

Microsoft support for Windows Server 2008 R2 on vSphere 5.5

Hi, everybody.
I'm checking if Microsoft will provide support for Windows Server 2008 R2 running on a VM on vSphere 5.5 Update 2. So far what I've found at
http://windowsservercatalog.com is:

Does that mean Microsoft doesn't support Windows 2008 R2 on vSphere 5.5 update 2?
I'm aware Windows Server 2008 R2 lifecycle is close to EOL, but customer requires this specific version for application compatibility.
Thanks

Hi mdgrkb,
Products that have passed the SVVP requirements for Windows Server 2012 R2 are considered supported on Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2008, and

UCS 1.4 support for PVLAN

Hi all,
Cisco advise UCS 1.4 supports PVLAN. But i see the following comment about PVLAN in UCS 1.4
"UCS extends PVLAN support for non virtualised deployments (without vSwitch ) . "
"UCS release 1.4(1) provides support for isolated PVLAN support for physical server access ports or for Palo CNA vNIC ports."
Does this means PVLAN won't work for virtual machine if VMs is connected to UCS by Nexus1000v or vDS although i am using PALO (M81KR) card?
Could anybody can confirm that?
Thank you very much!

Have not got that working so far...how would that traffic flow work?
1000v -> 6120 -> 5020 -> 6500s
(2) 10Gbe interfaces, one on each fabric to the blades. All VLANs (including the PVLAN parent and child VLAN IDs) are defined and added to the server templates - so propagated to each ESX host.
At this point, nothing can do layer 3 except for the 6500s. Let's say my primary VLAN ID for one PVLAN is 160 and the isolated vlan ID is 161...
On the Nexus 1000v:
vlan 160
name TEN1-Maint-PVLAN
private-vlan primary
private-vlan association 161
vlan 161
name TEN1-Maint-Iso
private-vlan isolated
port-profile type vethernet TEN1-Maint-PVLAN-Isolated
description TEN1-Maint-PVLAN-Isolated
vmware port-group
switchport mode private-vlan host
switchport private-vlan host-association 160 161
no shutdown
state enabled
port-profile type vethernet TEN1-Maint-PVLAN-Promiscuous
description TEN1-Maint-PVLAN-Promiscuous
vmware port-group
switchport mode private-vlan promiscuous
switchport private-vlan mapping 160 161
no shutdown
state enabled
port-profile type ethernet system-uplink
description Physical uplink from N1Kv to physical switch
vmware port-group
switchport mode trunk
switchport trunk allowed vlan all
channel-group auto mode on mac-pinning
no shutdown
system vlan 20,116-119,202,1408
state enabled
This works fine to and from VMs on the same ESX host (PVLAN port-profiles work as expected)...If I move a VM over to another host, nothing works...pretty sure not even if in same promiscuous port-profile. How does the 6120 handle this traffic? What do they get tagged with when they leave the 1000v?

Hi ,
I have vistied the site http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/bi and looking for Localization and Globalization information , also looked into CR2011 user guide,
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/CR2011/en/xi4_cr_usergde_en.pdf
as mentioned , didnt see any information on Localization and Globalization.
I need intial information , if Crystal Reports supports localization with RTL (Right to Left) for the listed languages. Once this information is in hand , i can go furthure and make my hands wet with samples.
I need this information for WinForms and HTML (for WebPages) , I am not sure how different they are inside CR2010 , but for sure externally WinForms reports and HTML Reports (for WebPages) are different.

Oracle's Support for Virtual Iron customers

Please refer to the blog entry at:
http://blogs.oracle.com/virtualization/2009/07/oracle_vm_blog_whats_safe.html
Lot's of chatter out there today about VMware's migration program. Below are a few points for customers to consider…
1. Oracle is dedicated to the on-going support of Virtual Iron customers and has enhanced the support offering beyond what was previously available from Virtual Iron. Oracle is pleased to be able to offer its Lifetime Support program for Virtual Iron products, which will extend sustaining support for these products and the Virtual Iron Enterprise Edition products indefinitely. Please refer to the Lifetime Support Policy: Oracle Technology Products on the specific support options for Virtual Iron products. In addition, Oracle has retained Virtual Iron support personnel, so that people who provided support prior to the acquisition will continue to do so going forward.
2. Our intent is to seamlessly combine Virtual Iron's technology with Oracle VM to deliver a product that is unique in the industry both in breadth of functionality, and also depth of features specifically designed to make the full application stack easier to deploy, manage, and support in a virtual environment. Through the combination of Virtual Iron's technology with Oracle VM, customers will be able to benefit from an optimized, efficient application infrastructure with low operating costs. In the meantime, existing customers can be assured that they are fully supported, 24x7 through a world-class support organization.
3. Oracle VM is a free download. Virtual Iron customers can download and start using Oracle VM today. Oracle VM supports both Oracle and non-Oracle software, and delivers more efficient performance than other virtualization products. Moreover, there's no license cost for Oracle VM. You can benefit from complete virtualization and operating system stack with Oracle Enterprise Linux and Oracle VM that permits dramatically faster and easier deployment of enterprise software.
4. Compare. Oracle VM support pricing.
For more information, you can visit:
* Learn more about Oracle and Virtual Iron
* Oracle VM

Got my call and was unable to get all my questions answered (my fault had to cut call short), also I was unable to get the tech called back today so i am hoping that I can tomorrow.
Preliminary thoughts/answers seam to point that they will sell you additional licenses if you buy support for all of your existing boxes, plus the ones you want to add. Because I use single processor boxes I am trying to get them to license based on the cpu count instead of by the box. If by the box it doubles my cost.
We talked a great deal about the Oracle VM 2.2 that was released for download and how if compaired to Virtual iron. Oracle is not up to the Virtual Iron level yet but it made some big jumps and will be there pretty soon, by their account. I look forward to seeing the progress and the advances that they will surely incorperate with the huge influx of cash that Oracle will bring.
Stay tuned.

Digital Media Manager support for Hyper-V?

Hi
Just a quick question, is there any planned support for the DMM Virtual appliance to be hosted on Hyper-V (on server 2012) or any supported conversion methods for a VMware Virtual Appliance to a Hyper-V version

David,
I would reach out to the business unit responsible to verify but I highly doubt it. DMM is not being developed further and is in a Maintenance Mode. Since the change over to Appspace being the main platform for Cisco Digital Signage there will be no further feature development on the DMM platform in that regard. Appspace is fully supported in a VM environment though.
I have also listed the contact info of the PM responsible who you could unicast to verify.
