Time sync monitor for all windows member servers

How to monitor time sync issue on all the member servers and domain controllers.  Can we monitor through scom 2007 r2.  Specially we need an alert when all the member servers are not in time sync.
B John

There is no monitor for exactly your ask.
The AD management pack includes a Time Service Health monitor for DCs that makes sure the time service is running:

Here is my "domain time tip:"
Select your preferred time server from this list
http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/NTP/. For example 'tick.usno.navy.mil'.
Then run these commands on your PDC emulator of the domain:
W32tm /config /syncfromflags:manual /manualpeerlist:"<DNS-name-of-time-server>"
W32tm /config /reliable:yes
W32tm /config /update
W32tm /resync
Net stop w32time
Net start w32time
If you execute these commands, AD defaults will cause all your member servers to discover the domain time standard and update to it.
Good luck,

  • Missing Feature in Lion: Expose for all Windows

    Hello!
    I've written a feedback to apple, that says it all:
    =================================================
    Since Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion) there was one Feature removed,
    which was a very important time saver for me:
    Expose for all Windows
    I'm missing this feature very much. In Mission Control you only see one window completly of every app, the other window are hidden behind. You can't entirely see, what is in that windows behind. There isn't a text Info when you float the mouse pointer over the window.
    In Mac OS X 10.6. (Snow Leopard) I loved this time saving feature. I would be so happy and grateful, if this feature were to resurface in Mac OS X 10.8. (Mountain Lion).
    Please let "Expose all Windows" return! :-)
    =================================================
    What do you think about it? Should / Could Expose return in the next Mac OS X? (I hope so)
    Greetings from Germany,
    Matthias B.

    Hello Rysz and Captfred!
    Rysz:
    I already have send this to Apple feedback.
    Captfred:
    There are two problems:
    1. I want to see all windows of all applications at once.
    2. Even the windows seperate a little bit, there are (even with only three Windows) most parts of the windows hidden because of the front window shown.
    Greetings,

  • How can I resize and reposition the Date Created window for All windows?

    When setting view options for a finder window set to list view, I cannot get column resizing or positioning to hold. When making those changes, the option for "All Windows" automatically shifts to "This window only" and it then does not hold.

  • Control-Shift-W activates Snow Leopard-Like exposé for all windows. Can this be disabled/changed?

    Running Mac OS X 10.7.2 on my MacBook Air, Control-Shift-W produces a Snow Leopard-like expose for all windows.
    While useful, this keyboard shortcut is wreaking havoc with my BBEdit settings. (Control-Shift-W is used to toggle "Selected text only" in the "Find" window.)
    Does anyone know a way to alter or disable this system shortcut? I haven't been able to find any information regarding this shortcut and I fear I may have altered an underlying property (using "defaults write…" at the command line) and I don't know how to revert what I (may) have done.
    Thanks in advance.

    I suspect that it's busy trying to mount a network file system of some type.
    Are there any errors in your logs that seem appropriate (viewable via Applications->Utilities->Console?)

    We don’t need to run this script on all the server. Just once is enough. For the problematic users, you can use Set-CASMailbox –id user |FL to check if the restrictions are applied

  • Disabling time-only monitoring for a method

    Hello,
    I have a namespace "MyCompany" with a class "MyClass".  MyClass has a method that is very CPU intensive (think loads of fast enumerations).  I want to exclude this method from all monitoring including time monitoring. 
    Can I do this by disabling monitoring for that method in the methods dialog box (resource methods) or do I need to disable monitoring for the entire class under namespaces?
    Thanks,
    Peter

    Hi Peter,
    Both variants will work.
    But if you choose the second variant (disabling the entire class within namespaces configuration), you won't see all the calls of that class in stack unless you add some calls explicitly within methods.

  • Can I Set View Prefs for ALL Windows?

    Is there a way in Tiger to set preferences so that ALL Finder windows ALWAYS open to a chosen view? If I want to see all windows in List View, for example, whenever a window is opened or created so that I don't have to reset windows individually, can this be done?
    G5 Dual 2.7   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  
    G5 Dual 2.7   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    That actually doesn't completely work. I have the same settings for my 10.4 Finder. I also have the highest level directory (ie: the boot drive) set to icon view with Brushed Metal and Sidebar turned off. However, all new folders created on the desktop always begin in Brushed Metal w/ Sidebar view. Also, folders that have been set with Brushed Metal/Sidebar turned off, open with it turned on when first navigated to via the Dock.
    In other words, open place your boot drive in the Dock. Set it to icon view with Brushed Metal and set Finder to open folders in new windows. Create a folder at the highest level of the drive. Open it to confirm it has taken the parent folder settings (in this case icon view, with Brushed Metal/Sidebar off). Close the window. Now open it via pop up menu from the drive icon in the Dock. Not only does it open in Brushed Metal Siderbar on view, but also at a different size, and sometime different Desktop location. Only when you manually turn off Brushed Metal at that point will the two versions of the open folder match when navigated to both ways.
    This behavior drives me nuts, as I tend to stay in non-Brushed Metal view, in either list or icon. I have several drives, and bop between Dock pop-up navigation, and regular old double click drilling. I'm constantly having to manually set windows to non-Brushed metal view, even after they were created with it turned off. I wish this inconsistency, and the fact that all new folders created at the Desktop begin with Brushed Metal on, were controllable system wide. However, it's been this way in OSX since as early as I can remember. So I doubt it'll ever be addressed.

  • Finder views change for all windows

    After playing around with Snow Leopard for just a few days, I noticed that when I change a view type in any Finder window, that view is applied to all windows. Is this by design? With Tiger, you could specify the view for "this folder only" or "all folders"

    Joe - I've been heavily researching this issue. I've received some helpful advice from baltow, but here is how I fixed my problem. While in Best Buy over the weekend, I played on one of their Macs running Leopard 10.5.8 to see if the problem started before Snow Leopard. It did, wasn't just me. Then I found this site:
    http://www.macintouch.com/leopard/faq.html#finder
    It said: *Why don't my window view settings stick?* The Leopard Finder's approach to consistency is to use the last view you selected in any Finder window for all new Finder windows. You can override this on a per-folder basis; go to the menu View > Show View Options (or press Command-J). This opens a view options Inspector (a mini-window much like a traditional Palette window); at the top of this window, check the "Always open in" box to force the folder always to show the current view.
    This is what was throwing me off - I thought that Always open in box was a global setting, not on an individual folder basis. With Tiger, you had two options: This window only, All windows.
    Now I will play with the Arrange By setting and see if that works as well.

  • Change default homepage for all windows terminal user profiles

    would like to change homepage,bookmarks,proxy settings for all user profiles on windows server 2003/2008

    You can use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify new (default) values.
    Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
    pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
    pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
    See:
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
    These functions can be used in the mozilla.cfg file:
    defaultPref(); // set new default value
    pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
    lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes

    I want to develop an app in VS 2012 for windows 8 (windows store apps), 
    but i have some questions and doubts that needs to be put to rest by your advice
    1. Any app created in this IDE will it work on windows xp, vista and above?
    2. If yes, what is the work around it for it to work on all windows platform?
    3. If no, should i use win forms to develop the app i.e VS 2012 for windows desktop?
    4. if i use VS 2012 for windows desktop (winforms) will be deployable on windows 8-8.1?
    Thank you in advance and reply soon
    Jayjay john

    Windows Store Apps are only supported in Windows 8 and later (depending on what OS you target - Windows Store Apps can be targeted to 8.0 or 8.1 and likely 10 soon). They won't be able to work on Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7. There is no workaround - users
    need at least Windows 8.
    You could use Win Forms or WPF in order to develop Desktop Applications. Desktop Applications are still supported on Windows 8 and later. They don't however support Windows RT tablets, Windows Phones or the Xbox One.

  • Error code 80070308 for all windows update

    Hi,
    I'm unable to install any kind of update. The install finishes with the following message : Unknown error code 80070308.
    My system info is as follows:
    OS: win7 Pro 32-bit, downloaded from ms website
    Processor: AMD Athlon XP2400+ @ 2.66 GHz
    RAM: 1GB
    I already saw this similar topic "VPC7 install failure: Prior to restart " but there is no solution.
    Thanks !

    Hi Deguich,
    Generally, the Windows Update issue can be caused by one of the following factors:
    1. The Windows Update service has been stopped.
    2. Corrupted Windows Update Temporary folder.
    In order to narrow down the cause of this issue and resolve it, I suggest you refer to the following steps. After finishing each step, you can check the result again.
    NOTE: Some third party programs can affect the Windows Update service. If you are running any third party applications such as Spyblocker, Internet or web accelerators (programs designed to boost the speed of the Internet connection), security or anti-virus programs (Norton, McAfee, etc.), I recommend we temporarily disable or shut them down and then try accessing Windows Update later. Please understand that we are disabling these programs only for the purpose of troubleshooting and we can re-enable these programs after we finish troubleshooting.
    Step 1: Verify the relevant Windows Update services
    ================================
    1. Click the "Start" Button, in “Search" bar, type: "services.msc" (without quotes) and press Enter. If you are prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    2. Double click the service "Windows Update".
    3. Click on the "General" tab; make sure the "Startup Type" is "Automatic" or "Manual". Then please click the "Start" button under "Service Status" to start the service.
    4. Please repeat the above steps with the "Background Intelligent Transfer Service" service.
    You can also temporarily stop these services, restart the computer, and then start these services again. If any service is missing or cannot be stopped or restarted, please let me know.
    Step 2: Rename the Windows Update Softwaredistribution folder
    ================================
    This problem may occur if the Windows Update Software distribution folder has been corrupted. We can refer to the following steps to rename this folder. Please note that the folder will be re-created the next time we visit the Windows Update site.
    1. Close all the open windows.
    2. Click the "Start" Button, click "All programs", and click "Accessories".
    3. Right-click "Command Prompt", and click "Run as administrator".
    4. In "Administrator: Command Prompt" window, type in "net stop WuAuServ" (without the quotes) and press Enter.
    Note: Please look at the cmd window and make sure it says that it was successfully stopped before we try to rename the folder. However, if it fails, please let me know before performing any further steps and include any error messages you may have received when it failed.
    5. Click the Start Button, in the “Search" bar, type in "%windir%" (without the quotes) and press Enter.
    6. In the opened folder, look for the folder named "SoftwareDistribution".
    7. Right-click on the folder, select Rename and type "SDold" (without the quotes) to rename this folder.
    8. While still in the "Administrator: Command Prompt" window, type the command "net start WuAuServ" (without the quotes) in the opened window to restart the Windows Updates service.
    Note: Please look at the cmd window and make sure it says that it was successfully started. However, if it failed, please let me know before performing any further steps and include any error messages you may have received when it failed.
    If the issue persists, would you please upload the following information to SkyDrive and provide us the link for analyzing?
    How to capture a screenshot
    ================================
    1. Press the Print Screen key (PrtScn) on your keyboard.
    2. Click the "Start" Button, type "mspaint" in the Search Bar and Press Enter.
    3. In the Paint program, click the "Edit" menu, click "Paste". Then click the "File" menu, and click "Save".
    4. The "Save As" dialogue box will appear. Type a file name in the "File name:" box, for example: "screenshot".
    5. Make sure "JPEG (*.JPG;*.JPEG;*.JPE;*.JFIF)" is selected in the "Save as type" box, click "Desktop" on the left pane and then click "Save".
    How to collect the System Information
    ================================
    The System Information can provide us with more information about the current status of the system. I would like to check it for you. Please send it to me using the following steps:
    1. Click the "Start" Button, type "MSINFO32" in the Search Bar and press Enter to start System Information.
    2. On the popup window, on the menu bar, click "File", and click "Save", type a file name and then choose NFO as "Save as type", click "Desktop" on the left pane, and click Save.
    How to collect the WindowsUpdate.log file
    ================================
    1. Click the "Start" Button, type "WindowsUpdate.log" (without the quotes) in the Search Bar and Press Enter. We will see a file named "WindowsUpdate.log"
    2. Now click on the "File" menu and then click on the "Save As".
    3. From the left panel, click "Desktop" and click the Save button.

  • Listing Access Rights for all of our servers

    We are in the process of enforcing new security requirements that call for specific enforcement of user rights (Local Security Policy \ Security Settings \ Local Policies \ User Rights Assignment). We are trying to find a method of dumping rights configuration
    on every server so that we can identify those servers they can be quickly re-mediated with a base group policy, and those that will require extra work to ensure that servers with special rights considerations are preserved and documented. We are hoping to
    use the same script to validate that the settings we push out from group policy actually apply to the servers.
    I am not looking for someone to write the script. I just cannot find a way to dump the policy in an efficient way. We have tried two WBEM Classes (RSOP_PolicySetting and RSOP_UserPrivilegeRight). Both would be fine if they showed the local configuration
    as well as the domain propagated settings. We need the combined answer, not just the group policy based settings.
    I found a method of using PSEXEC to execute SECEDIT to dump the settings on a remote system, I would then need to script the recovery of the output and change SIDS to user / groups. The method is looking pretty kludgy. Is there a better way to get this data
    and compile it for review? Powershell or command line is fine as long as we can do it remotely. WinRM is not allowed at our site, so any method dependent on that wont work for our purposes.

    Are you asking how to get the rights of the local groups on a remote system?
    There are a number of utilities that display account rights as configured.   I don't think anyone would feel that using SECEdit is the way to do this.
    NTRights is an SDK utility.  WhoAmI will display the privileges assigned.
    WHOAMI /ALL
    Privilege Name                Description                         
    State
    ============================= ==================================== ========
    SeShutdownPrivilege           Shut down the system                 Disabled
    SeChangeNotifyPrivilege       Bypass traverse checking             Enabled
    SeUndockPrivilege             Remove computer from docking station Disabled
    SeIncreaseWorkingSetPrivilege Increase a process working set       Disabled
    SeTimeZonePrivilege           Change the time zone                 Disabled
    Even WMI can return rights/provileges.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
