TACACs servers in different locations

Is it possible to have a switch/ router configured for a 2 x Tacacs servers in different locations. They are not clustered, they are on the same network, but different domains and in different countries and use different login credentials

You can configure multiple ACS in your switches and routers. It doesn't matter where these servers are located as long they are reachable by the AAA-client. If both servers work with different credentials I would configure them with different prompts so that the admin can see which server is asked.
Don't stop after you've improved your network! Improve the world by lending money to the working poor:

Syncronise 2 ifs on 2 servers at different locations????

Hello,
we have to offices connected via vpn both having a server running oracle. We want to sync. the two system using ifs (distributed transaktions ?). is it possible?
please email the answer to [email protected]
Thank your very much

munno,
I don't think your question is specific to Database Machine or Exadata at all. The same questions arise any time there are two servers in different time zones that service the same application. The answers are specific to your application and database configuration. If you use the TIMESTAMP data types that include timezone, it shouldn't matter. Unfortunately, most customers aren't using these types. The data in the database shouldn't change based on where the database server is located IMO - the application should insert the data with whatever time it wants/needs.
Changing the time zone on storage cells requires you to run the ipconf utility. Changing the database server time zone is done just like any other Linux server - nothing special there and there are many good doc sources for that that any competent Linux administrator should be able to find if they don't already know.
Hope that directs you to the answers you need.

Syncing a pair of OSX Lion Servers in different locations

Hi Folks,
I have 8+ TB of data sitting on various hard drives (yes I know its nuts). I want to purchase a pair of Mac Mini Lion Servers with the Promise Pegasus 12TB (6x2TB) R6 RAID Systems on each and load all of the data on both of them and then put them in differnet locations and have them sync/backup the files between them via the internet.
Are there provisions in Lion Server that will let you sync/backup the files between two Lion Servers automatically?
Thanks!
Mike Pappas

I hope you plan to do the initial sync locally
There is no official Apple provided approach to do this, but there are various ideas you could consider. Firstly you are going to need to organise some means for the two servers to be able to communicate with each other over the Internet. A site-to-site hardware based VPN providing a permenant connection would be the easiest and most reliable.
Secondly, you will need to use some software on each server. A common tool for syncing two computer volumes is Rsync see http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/ man1/rsync.1.html
Many Mac backup utilities have a similar capability to backup to a remote host. Some use their own protocol for doing this e.g. Retrospect, some use standard FTP, some rely on you first logging in to the remote file server so it is available on your desktop.
Another different approach you could consider would be to use a pair of NetGear ReadyNAS boxes. These are self-contained 'servers' although not ideal for use for Mac OS X network home directories. NetGear provide an add-on service to synchronise two (or more) ReadyNAS boxes. See http://www.netgear.co.uk/business/products/software/readyNAS-replicate/default.a spx this also does all the hardwork of letting both ReadyNAS boxes find each other without having to setup a VPN system.

CUCM servers in different locations - possible?

Hello
This may be a simple question but I've been asked to investigate it.
We have a CUCM version 9.1.1.10000-11 set up comprising :-
1 x Publisher
2 x Subscribers
1 x TFTP server
2 x Unity servers
2 x Presence servers
They are all currently located in two racks in a comms room in our Frankfurt office.
Is it possible to move half of them to another location to give us a redundancy scenario? Or do they need to be in the same place for some reason?
If they can be moved is it just a case of making sure the IP addresses are valid in each location or that the config is re-done to reflect the new IP addresses of the moved servers?
Thanks

Yes, review the guidelines for CoW in the SRND for the CUCM server and the CUC HA design guide to consider the BW and RTT between sites that is required to split them over a WAN.

I currently have two servers for CER, a pub and a sub. The customer wants to put these two servers at different locations for disaster recovery. I know exactly how to configure a Pub in Sub for CER but I'm wondering what are the network requirements for this type of design. I've been through all the Doc's on CER but I'm not finding anything. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Can 2 people in different locations at the same time import, access, send, and receive the same messages from the same email account

I import messages into Thunderbird. I send and receive emails. One of the things I like about Thunderbird is that I can insert (image, link, etc) right where I want to, and I can Attach. But not just a simple attach file. No, I can also click Attach and choose Webpage. A lot of web-based emails are plain, simple, no frills - Attach file and that's it.
So I need to have my client be able to do the same thing I do when sending out emails, Namely sending out emails with an Electronic Press Kit (EPK) attached - which is to say, a webpage (not a pdf in our case). So, I need her to download, install, and use Thunderbird.
Here's the problem and my question. She needs to access, send, and receive from my email account. That would be easy if it was simple attach files - she could just login on the web, go to squirrel mail and bang it out.. Here it is: She needs to be able to import the messages to be able to reply to some messages - she needs access to what I have access to. She needs to use Thunderbird so she can take advantage of the features like insert image with link or attaching a webpage. My question is how will this affect my use? Can 2 people simultaneously and from different locations access and use the same email account or is it a case where her importing the emails would cut me off..Is it an either or thing? Basically, can her and I both import the emails or can they only be imported to one location at a time. Because every time someone sends me an email i get it right there on my Thunderbird application..it's imported to my Thunderbird..I want her and I to be able to do that without affecting each other. I don't want her to start importing to her desktop and then I can no longer import. If she says "point those messages to my computer what will happen to my ability to access them on my computer in the same manner I am currently?

I think there is a contradiction in your requirements. You want two people to share an account and you don't want either to interfere with the other.
The short and simple answer is to use IMAP to connect to the mail server. If your current email provider doesn't offer IMAP, find another that does. This is old technology already and it's disgraceful that some email providers haven't yet put it in place.
IMAP means that your messages are stored on the server and both of you will see exactly the same set of messages. And therein lies the contradiction; you will both see changes made by the other so you are inherently interfering with one another.
Caveats: some providers may not permit you both to access the account concurrently, and even if they do, things may become interesting if you both choose to work on the same message simultaneously.
Note that all of this is about email servers and protocols; your choice of Thunderbird as your email client has little bearing on the situation.

What is the best way to work on the same InDesign file in different locations?

I'm the creative director for an in-house creative department. We produce 37 catalogs and a multitude of print and electronic advertising each year, plus a variety of other items. Our problem is that we have two locations. In the current set-up, if I want someone at one location to work on a project but the files are at the other location, I have someone at the one location package all the materials involved with that project and either upload them to DropBox or copy them to an external drive and ship it. Not very efficient.
We have servers at both locations but there are different files at each location. I'm able to remote from my computer into a computer at the other location, but if everyone were to do that we would need double the number of CC subscriptions and computers, and it would bog down the internet connection that the entire company uses. I'm also connected to the server at the other location (again, over the internet) and have opened InDesign files that reside on the server there and tried to work on them here (over the internet) but that is much slower than remoting in.
The only way I can think of to alleviate this problem is to run duplicate servers at each location, but this would be an update and back-up nightmare (unless I'm missing something). Is anyone operating this same way and, if so, how are you dealing with it?
We can't be the only company that works like this. Maybe I'm just missing something.
Thanks,
Lloyd

One tiny thing bothers me about your setup. And you said it above, you would need double the number of CC subscriptions and computers. Are you using two people to access under the same CC subscription. Even if they are working in two different time zones, it is technically violating the rules and spirit of the rules of being able to install on two machines at the same time.
You're allowed to install for two machines for one person working at the office and then at home. One person wouldn't be in two different locations at the same time.
Meanwhile, regards your problem, I remember reading about a system many years ago that was pretty simple. It was based on an old newspaper/magaizine system of "who has the folder." (Created before computers) In the old days, if someone was working on a file, they left a folder with their name in its place.
In the computer age, one person, working on a file, would move it to their desktop. Then, they would leave an empty folder with that document's name where it had been as well as their initials. So if I took "Shoes and Socks Fall 2015.indd" out, I would leave a folder named "Shoes and Socks Fall 2015_smsc" in its place.
And if it was necessary for me to have the images, I would make a copy of them onto my machine so I wouldn't tax the network. Then when I was finished, I would copy the file back to the server. The links should show up. If not, we could relink later.
With the empty folder on the server, anyone could tell who is working on a project. So if they were late getting it back, you could email them.
It relies on the people being disciplined enough to make the folders, move the docs, etc. But since you've ruled out all the systems for companies with dumb employees, you're going to have to make them follow the rules.

2 CF servers,but different remote object path for flash

I have 2 CF servers,but different remote object path for flex in each server.
Eg for one flex program in my dev server I define the remote object as follows
<mx:RemoteObject id="myService" destination="ColdFusion" source="cfide.flex.path_to_file" showBusyCursor="true">
But in my live sevrver I have to do this.
<mx:RemoteObject id="myService" destination="ColdFusion" source="path_to_file" showBusyCursor="true">
How can I make both the same?

Thanks mate,
I tried <use-mappings>true</use-mappings> and restarted the server but its still not working
I think this is the spoiler:
ColdFusion mappings apply only to pages processed by the ColdFusion Server with the cfinclude and cfmodule tags. If you save CFML pages outside of the Web root (or whatever directory is mapped to "/"), you must add a mapping to the location of those files on your server.
from
http://www.adobe.com/livedocs/coldfusion/5.0/Installing_and_Configuring_ColdFusion_Server/ basiconfig9.htm
so that ruins it for flex I guess?

Setting backup on two different locations

Hello, people. I am a newbie DBA and at my work place , Using RMAN for my backup strategy I want to set up a backup to two different location ( e.g A:\backup and B:\backup), I have configure two channels, and also set configure device type disk parallelism 2, but I seem not to be getting the result i need.
What does configure device type disk parallelism actually do?
For me to proceed, what do i need to do? thank you.

RMAN configuration parameters are:
CONFIGURE RETENTION POLICY TO RECOVERY WINDOW OF 3 DAYS;
CONFIGURE BACKUP OPTIMIZATION ON;
CONFIGURE DEFAULT DEVICE TYPE TO DISK; # default
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP ON;
CONFIGURE CONTROLFILE AUTOBACKUP FORMAT FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO '%F'; # default
CONFIGURE DEVICE TYPE DISK PARALLELISM 1;
CONFIGURE DATAFILE BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 2;
CONFIGURE ARCHIVELOG BACKUP COPIES FOR DEVICE TYPE DISK TO 1; # default
CONFIGURE CHANNEL DEVICE TYPE DISK FORMAT 'D:\oracle\backup\data_%U', '\\atapp\data\olu\backup\data_%U';
CONFIGURE MAXSETSIZE TO UNLIMITED; # default
CONFIGURE SNAPSHOT CONTROLFILE NAME TO 'D:\ORACLE\ORACLE9I\DATABASE\SNCFTESTER.ORA'; # default
this is my configuration and it works fine, A copy of the backup are on both servers, the same size the and there is only copy of the archive log and controlfile on one of the servers which is fine

Connecting to two different SQLServers present on different Locations

Hi,
How can i connect to two different SQL Servers which are at different locations in the same session? IS there any way to do this without disconnecting from the first server?
cheers,
Sachin

Well,
actually my problem is that im reading Database
e Properties through a file which contains multiple
database entries. And i have only one Connection
Object so if im logged into one ex SQLServer in
London, I have a class which will allow me to loginto
another database SQL Server at New York. Now how do i
keep my connection as well as connect to New York
Database Server with the same Connection Object. If
possible, I need to logoff from the Server at London.
How do i do this? Any Ideas?Redesign. You have a connection object that can only have one connection. Either you have to close that connection and reconnect to the other one, or you need two of them. Those are your choices.

Time Zones on exadata located at different locations

We have a situation where our Oracle databases are going to be located at different geographical locations. ( platform: Oracle sun database machine, eXadata).
We have data loaded into these databases from all over the world too.
***Not sure what time zone we will set at each location, no idea, but thinking of GMT at each location.
-1-
Question is, how do we do that on ODM ?
-2-
Where do we need to apply this change ?
-3-
Storage Cell Level ? OR
-4-
Database Level on each Node ?

Do I need to worry about day light savings ?

Mounting Documents, Music, Video and Picture folder to different location.

I would like to mount the documents, video, picture and music folders to a different location than \users\<username\. Anyone know how I can go about doing this? My goal is to have those folders default to folders on a shared partition on the drive. I am dual booting OS X and Vista and would like to share the folders I listed above so both operating systems can read and write to them. I have my drives setup as follows:
Partition 1 OS X
Partition 2 Vista OS
Partition 3 Shared
I already have Vista defaulting to the correct folders on the shared drives but not sure how to get it done with OS X.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Moving the default folders may cause problems with installers and such that expect them to be where they normally are, and there may be various permissions issues. With that said, you should be able to create an alias or symbolic link to the desired folders and place them in your shared partition.

Saving screenshots to a different location?

Somewhere, there is a preference to set the default location to save screenshots... I can't find it now! I have one of my machines set to save screenshots to a folder on my desktop, so I know this is possible. But I can't seem to find that preference on a second machine. I thought it was a preference setting in Cocktail, but it isn't there.
Can anyone tell me where to set the default location for saving screenshots? I need to set it to a folder instead of Mac OS's default of the Desktop.
Thanks!

I would love to know how to set a different location. How do you do this in Leopard and Snow Leopard?

I'm trying to download Firefox 4, but the following message comes up: Downloading/Volumes/firefox/o5we?qDe.part.part could not be saved, because an unknown error has occurred. Try saving to different location. What does this mean?

When trying to download to download Firefox 4, the following message comes up: Downloading/Volumes/Firefox/05weDe.part. could not be saved because of an unknown error. Try saving to a different location. I have a Mac OS X Version 10.4.10. I think I should be able to download Firefox 4. I have Firefox Version 3.6 now.

I am often getting this kind of error, although I believe it's less frequent with Firefox 4 than with the previous version. I do not know a proper solution, but I have noticed this:
* If I simply try to re-download, it will fail again.
* If I clear the list in the download window, I can download the same file without any trouble.
I believe the problem may be related to the antivirus software. The file is downloaded completely, and instead of moving it to the final position Firefox gets confused and deletes it.

Mac mini server on two different location

Hi,
With my partner we are working on very havy image file from two different location. we wont to be able to share those file to each other easly and quickly mad make sur those file are allways up to date.
- My first idea was to install in my place one mac mini server with external hard drive (RAID 0) and install the same server in my partner place. then I would like to create a VPN connexion between both Mac Mini server and setup a kind of RAID 1 between then. link that if my partner modify an image file on the server, With a short delay I will be able to see it on my side. this solution would be the best for me as all the data would be save in two different location and I would not have any backup issue.
I did not buy the MAC mini server yet but as soon that I know the best soluiton and that it is possilbe to do so I will buy it.
- My second idea (if the first one is not possible or if you guy's convins me that my idea is stupide) would be to have one MAC Mini server in one location setup with an external hard drive in RAID 01. my partner will need to connect to this server through VPN. This solution seems to be a good option but my partner will need to copy the file in local to work on it (few Gb eatch file) and copy it back on the server when he finish to work on it.
With this solution I will also need to organise manual backup through another hard drive to avoid to have all our data in the same location.
Witch one of those solution seems the best and can work with MAC mini server? If you have another idea for my situation I m more then happy to read it.
Knowing that other user may need to access to my file, is the MAC Mini server VPN connection safe and fast?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Chris.

The fact that you are both working on multi-gigabyte
files, the statement BDAqua made about network speed
is a big issue. Small incremental changes in a single
multi-gigabyte file still require that entire file to be transferred.
There in lies the big issue with network speeds.
Basically, it seems idea 1 will probably not work well and
besides, RAID is for local drives and not for over networks.
One solution to the synchronization issue is have a single
computer that has the application and the data and log into
it and work remotely. However, it sounds like these are image
files and working and any kind of graphics over a remote
connection is problematic unless there is a very high speed
network connection.
Second idea is the simple solution. As for the backup, that
can be automated with backup software and the backup could be
put any where.
