Test/Verify Biztalk 2013/Windows 2008 R2 installation

Hi
I have experienced problems with MSDTC on a new two server development box (virtual server)
BizTalk 2013/MSSQL 2012 on Windows 2008 R2
MSDTC failed connection when receive locations was started
Seems to be fine now DTC tester is working ok
I'd like to check how the installation is doing on a more regurlar basis
Any ideas, some scheduled action, a service or something
Thanks /Peter

Peter,
You can consider few options:
Since you dont have any trace of MSDTC failure in your new installation, instead of looking for an trace, you can look for its reaction like suspend message and configure an alert to
be send to you (or to support team)
Normally any MSDTC related failures on a running instance would result in a eventlog entry, and again you can configure for an alert for this event log entry.
Another option is you can create a batch file to run the DTCPing tool and it can output an log file. Your automation script can interrogate or send the copy of the log file to you.
Also in MSDTC, you can enable tracing options, where you have options like “Trace Aborted Transaction” (In the same tab you can also choose the log file location). So you can create an
automated process to send you the log file (may be by email) when the log file is created or periodically.
As said, Messagebox view can be scheduled to run and it can capture the MSDTC failures. And this report can be emailed to you.

How to test node failover in Windows 2008 R2 Failover Cluster?

Can anyone give me advice on how to properly test a node failure with a 2 mode Failover Cluster in Windows 2008 R2?

To test the failover of a clustered service or application
In the Failover Cluster Manager snap-in, if the cluster that you want to configure is not displayed, in the console tree, right-click
Failover Cluster Manager, click Manage a Cluster, and then select or specify the cluster that you want.
If the console tree is collapsed, expand the tree under the cluster that you want to configure.
Expand Services and Applications, and then click the service or application for which you want to test failover.
Under Actions (on the right), click Move this service or application to another node.
As the service or application moves, the status is displayed in the results pane (center pane).
Optionally, repeat step 4 to move the service or application to an additional node or back to the original node.

Does Windows 2008 Server run ok under Mac Mini Bootcamp?

Does anyone have any experience of installing and running Windows 2008 Server on a Mac Mini (of which has either Mac OS or Mac OS Server installed), under Bootcamp?
I currently have an old Dell with Windows 2008 server which acts as my Domain Controller, Exchange Server for a small home-office network. It's due an upgrade as the hardware is so old (and noisy!) and like the idea of having a nice compact, quiet Mac Mini, but want to make sure it can carry out the same duties under bootcamp on Win2008?

Windows 2008 can be installed in Boot Camp. However I don't believe it is officially supported by Apple so there may or may not be issues with installing the Boot Camp Drivers (or future updates to the Boot Camp drivers.) Not something I'd be recommending for a "production" environment. If this is a test/dev system, then probably worth trying, depending on how critical your network uptime is.
Also, you didn't mention if your Dell came with Windows 2008 preinstalled, but if it did, then likely it has a "branded" version of Windows that won't activate correctly on non-Dell hardware. (If your Windows disks have "Dell" on them, they won't work with the Mac.) So you may need to purchase a retail or volume license copy of Windows 2008.
In general, for a server running as a DC & Exchange, you'd want RAID1 as a minimum so that would be the Mac Mini Server, not the "desktop" Mac Mini. Unless you have one lying around, you're looking at something around $1500-$2000 to start, depending on whether you can transfer your existing Windows 2008 & Exchange installations. (Another $500-$2000 depending on what vesions of Windows & Exchange.) And probably 8GB of RAM since Windows 2008 & Exchange on 4GB is pushing it. Considering the costs, I suggest you look at the Dell T110 series or the HP Proliant 110 series. Both lines are very quiet and are supported for Windows 2008 from the factory, including Windows Small Business Server, which includes Exchange. While not as small as a Mac Mini, they are mini towers and about the size of a typical PC desktop.
If you really wanted a small footprint, then HP has a "microserver" series. You'd probably need to call HP to get the build you want as the online ordering is limited for that model. From Dell, there is the Zino model desktop. Again, not supported for a "server", but you were going to consider a the non-server version of the Mac Mini, then the Zino has at least a chance of you reusing your existing versions of Windows if they're Dell branded, thus saving your something in the range of $500-$2000 for new software. (But I would NOT recommend a non-server chassis without RAID1 hard drives, so the Zino is not my choice. I just offer it as a possibility if you accept the risk of an unsupported installation, as would have been installing Windows 2008 in Boot Camp.)
So yes, it will work. But I wouldn't recommend it for a production environment, especailly if you have the "desktop" computer without RAID1.

Inplace upgread Windows 2008 R2 to Windows 2012

Hello,
I am testing inplace upgrade from Windows 2008 R2 to Windows 2012 R2. My test server is Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise, Evaluation and is a domain controller. I tried to perform an inplace upgrade, however it failed. The compatibility report says that
Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise cannot be upgraded to Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Evaluation (Server with GUI).
I also update the schema first. It went fain and it was completed without error.
Thank you.

Hi,
Based on my experience, it is not supported to upgrade
from a Windows server evaluation version to another Windows server evaluation version. If you want to use Windows server 2012 R2 Datacenter evaluation version, you need to delete the previous operate system and perform a clean installation. Or
you can convert the evaluation version of Windows Server 2008 R2 to a full retail version and then upgrade it to Windows server 2012 R2 Datacenter version.
For more detailed information, please refer to the link below:

Biztalk 2013 Eventlog.WriteEntry

On Biztalk 2006R2 (windows server 2003R2), I never had problem writing to eventlog from my Biztalk orchestration.
But on BizTalk 2013 (Windows server 2008R2), whenever My Biztalk application tries to write to eventlog, I see the following error:
Inner exception: The source was not found, but some or all event logs could not be searched. Inaccessible logs: Security.
Exception type: SecurityException
Source: System
I followed the instructions in the following link and was able to resolve the issue.
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/271578/BizTalk-Event-Log-error-The-source-was-not-found-b
But I am not sure if it is the right way of fixing the problem. Anyone faced similar problems with Biztalk 2013? Any inputs on the cause and the resolution of the problem?? Greatly
appreciate any insgiht or suggestions on it.

If the Source does not exist, an implicit attempt to create it will be made during the Write. If the logged on use does not have the ability to create Event Sources, this will fail as you see. As stated, this is a .Net thing and is in no way
BizTalk specific.
The BizTalk Host Instance Service Account should not have Administrative rights on the machine.
You have two options:
Write a program that creates the Event Source using EventLog.CreateEventSource():
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/2awhba7a(v=vs.110).aspx
Use the eventcreate.exe utility:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324145/en-us
eventcreate is probably your best option here.

The acount information could not be verified - SQL 2005 SP3 installation on Windows 2008 R2 Failover Cluster

Hi,
We have a problem when we are trying to install SQL SP3 on SQL 2005 cluster.
The problem is described bellow:
We installed a new Windows 2008 R2 x64 failover cluster with two nodes.
As a next step we installed SQL 2005 Enterprise edition x64 on this failover cluster. We have finished the installation without problems. After SQL installation we are trying to install SQL SP3 . We have logged on using a domain administrator account and
we start the installation of SP3 with that user. In authentication mode screen the test gives a success status using either domain administrator-windows authentication or sa-sql authentication. On remote user account screen, when we give the domain
administrator account we get the message "the account information could not be verified. Press ok to return to authentication mode screen to determine the reason for failure".
We have tried to give the SQL services startup user on remote user account screen but the error is the same.
the domain administrator account exists on security logins of SQL with sysadmin rights.
Can someone help?
Thanks.

Hi StelioMavro,
According to your error message, when you install SQL Server 2005 SP3 in your failover cluster, we need to verify if there was other instance that had been removed and the installation did not pass the login check. I recommend you use windows authentication
instead of SQL Server authentication when applying SP3. And the windows account used to run the SP3 setup program must have administrator privileges on the computer where SP3 will be installed.
For more information about how to install SQL Server 2005 SP3 in failover cluster, you can review the following article.

Installation guides of BizTalk 2013

Hello All,
I do see the installation documents of "Installing BizTalk Server 2013 and BAM in a Multi-Computer Environment.docx" and "Upgrading to BizTalk Server 2013 from BizTalk Server 2010-2009.docx" at
Installation Guides Related to BizTalk Server 2013. But I'm trying to find "Installing BizTalk Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012.docx" similar to what is available for BizTalk
2010 "Installing BizTalk Server 2010 on Windows Server 2008 R2 and 2008.docx".
I see other helpful sites like
Sandro's BizTalk Server Installation Scenario, but I'm also looking for word document on it.
Thanks
Bhava

There is no specific guide for installing BizTalk Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012. The guides have been refactored to eliminate these distinctions.
So long as you meet the minimum OS requirements:
Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, Windows 7 SP1, Windows 8
the installation process is essentially the same.
I think the UI experiance from Windows Server 2003 -> 2008 was different enough to warrent a separate guide. 2008 -> 2012, not so much.

Hi!
Windows 2008 R2 is not yet listed in the PAM - and hence not yet supported. The technical prerequisites are met (with a special kernel patch) but not all software is released, so you may get it to run technically but not everything is tested and so, you should not install any SAP system on it!
In fact, and just to provide you further details it is not possible to expect the 710 products released for Windows Server 2008 R2 before around four weeks; 700 products will be released even after 710.
See [SAP note 1383873|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1383873] ("Windows Server 2008 R2 Support").

Upgrade of Integation Services (Windows 2012 R2) on Windows 2008 R2 with Exchange 2013 SP1 DAG fails

Here is the scenario:
Legacy Host: Windows 2008 R2
Guest VM: Windows 2008 R2 with Exchange 2013 SP1 DAG cluster.
After importing the VM (2008 R2 and Exchange 2013 DAG) into a 2012 R2 host (Cluster). (copy VM files to new 2012 R2host) Everything works fine.
Then upgrading "Installation Services" (for Windows 2012 R2 host) on the imported VM runs fine with no errors to the "Restart" prompt. VM than shows: "Configuring Windows updates 32% complete. Do not turn
of your computer." Hangs there for about 20 minutes until is says "shutting down". Hangs there for 20 minutes until power off. Restart to normal start; "Preparing to configure Windows. Do not turnoff your computer." proceeds slowly
to "Configuring Windows updates 32% complete. Do not turn of your computer." hangs there again indefinite. Sometime hangs at shutdown cycle and "Configuring Windows updates 32% complete. Do not turn of your computer." indefinitely.
I moved 20 other machines from a 2008 R2 host to new Windows 2012 R2 hosts all of these machines install the 2012 R2 Integration services just fine on the 2008 R2 VM. Just the 2008 R2 VMs clustered (DAG) and Exchange 2013 SP1 do not take the Integration
Services upgrade.
Any advise from Microsoft? I know I could decommission the DAG and Exchange machines and install Integration services on the native box before Exchange and DAG and that would sure work, but I'd rather avoid that amount of work for a simple integration layer
upgrade.
Thanks

Thanks

Deva
i didnt get what you mean by rpd client.,if you mean Admin tool, installation is OBIEE 'simple installation' type which includes Admin tool.
coming to connectivity, no from physical layer you cannot view data as the packaged dll file (nqsdbgatewayoci10g64.dll ) is not registering in Windows 2008 64 bit,which i even tried manually.
since above step is failing, i also installed a 11g db client(to divert oci connections) which is working fine for oracle connectivity and updated PATH environment variables but this issue is still in place.. as reports still pointing to Oracle_BI1/bifoundation/server/bin/ dll files
please share your thoughts

How do I enable users to attend on Lync 2013 meeting on Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Services/XenApp 6?

Hi,
We are not using Lync internally. But some of my users need to attend Lync 2013 meetings. We run a Windows 2008 R2 Terminal Services/XenApp environment. Users are not allowed to install applications.
In the past, I was able to install administratively a Lync 2010 attendee client.
How do I enable my users to attend a Lync 2013 meeting?
Thanks.

This is not viable. I don't know which user is going to be attending Lync meetings from suppliers or customers ahead of time and have no contacts to request a test meeting. This is a loop. How does Microsoft expect sysadmins to support their products if
the client software is not easily available.
At this point if I have a user who needs this, I will only know about it after the meeting has failed. At that point the user is not very receptive to the idea of involving his contact in troubleshooting and setting up test meetings. It's even worse if it's
an executive.
Is there any way of pre-installing the pre-requisites for attending Lync 2013 meetings?
My only choice is to inform my user community that we have no way of supporting Lync and request that they use GotoMeeting or WebEx with their contacts who try to do a Lync meeting.
I am very disappointed in Microsoft's approach with Lync 2013.
Thanks for your time.

Installation ERP 6.0 EHP4 on MSCS windows 2008 - oracle 10

Hi,
I'm installing an ERP 6.0 EHP4 on platform windows 2008 - oracle 10 with MSCS.
Cluster is configure as described in SAP installation manual.
Network configuration is set up as described in SAP installation manual.
During step --> First MSCS Node (7.3.5 Configuring the First MSCS Node) sapinst got an error before end of input parameters.
In other forum I've found to check MSCS network configuration, but it seems OK.
Any idea ?

Hi,
my SAP system is 7.01 kernel based so I can't apply control.xml of "Note 1249469 - SAP NetWeaver Based On Kernel 7.11: Windows".
I've just download new control.xml file attached to "Note 1326698 - SAP NetWeaver 7.01 SR1/Business Suite 7 SR1: Windows" but error still remains.
So I've compared the two control.xml files in corrispondence of function IPAddress(adr), where the error "modlib.jslib.invalidIPAddressNumber" is returned.
The difference between files are reported below (first control.xml for kernl 701 and before control.xml files for kernel 7.11).
I've noticed that in my control.xml files is missing the following code:
 while (num < 0) {
 num += 0x100000000;
For a test I've tried to modify my control.xml files adding this code and there is no error; I can see "Parameter Summary" of sapinst program. Now I can go on with installation, clicking on next.
Now I've to decide if going on with installation or opening a support message to SAP Support for validating this solution.
What do you think about this ?
Bye
Maurizio

Oracle 10g installation on Windows 2008 VMware

Hi everybody,
hope you can help me with that issue; I try to install a ECC 6.0 test-system with Oracle 10g on a Windows 2008 VMware instance.
I am getting a strange error when executing sapserver.cmd when I try to install the Oracle software; the Oracle Universal Installer 10.2 is aborting at the very beginning with an error popup with following content. First I enter the Drive letter for installation and SID and then OUI trys to start...
The program was not closed properly. An internal error occured. Please provide Oracle support with following datas:
"unknown"
"unknown"
"unknown"
Any ideas? I did not find anything in Metalink or on the SAP Marketplace. And I am aware that Oracle is not official supported on VMWare; on Windows 2003 I did not occur any similar problems.
kind regards
Philipp

The OUI doesn´t work (yet) on Windows 2008, you will need to wait for the OUI 10.2.0.4.

Grid Infrastructure installation on Windows 2008 R2 problem

Hello there,
I tried to install Grid Infra 11gr2 on windows 2008 R2. I followed all the documentation, but i'm unable to install it. It always end with an error at the grid configuration step (OracleOHService ends unexpectedly, ohasd log says "caught exception"). I've got an SR opened, no answer for the moment ...
Did someone a least managed to install grid infra on 2008 R2 ?
It is certified, 2008 R2 is mentioned in the documentation, this is not my first RAC installation on windows (10g, 11gr1 on 2003, 2008 R1). But this time I'm totally stuck.
PS : I love Linux.

Make sure you have the shared storage configured correctly, on either Oracle ASM or OCFS for Windows. In my testing, i used a storage cabinet and iSCSI to connect to the disks.
If you have attempted to install Grid once, then before attempting another installation, you must clean out the failed installation (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e10817/rem_orcl.htm#CHDGBBIJ) and zero out the disks used by Oracle ASM. Also, use the asmtool to mark the disks so that Oracle ASM can identify them correctly.
Also, make sure that Microsoft Clustering is disabled (and preferably not installed) on the servers you are using in your Oracle cluster.
Most of the time, a failed installation is due to the shared storage not being configured correctly, or being configured so that it works during installation of Oracle Grid, but once the server is restarted, Oracle Grid fails to start.
