[Transport / CTS] Production servers on a different site than dev servers

Hello,
My current customer has his development servers on a physical site A and his production servers on a physical site B (distance between the sites is 300kms).
How can we do to tranport the developments and customizing from site A to site B.
The customer doesn't want to mount sap/trans from site A to production servers as the exchange are not secured...
We will use CTS+ in a complex environment (ECC, BI, EP, SRM, PI, Solman)
Thanks in advance for your help

hello Thomas,
you can copy the datafiles and cofiles from dev to prod server and then manually add the transports in import queue of production server and do the transports
Hope that helps
Rohit

Distribution Monitor for 2 different servers from 2 different sites

Hello all,
We are trying to use Distribution Monitor during a parallel Unicode Conversion on a SAP 4.7 system.
The source system and target system are 2 different servers located on 2 different sites (more than 500Kms distant).
Questions:
1. Can we use Distribution Monitor with 1 source server dedicated for the Export and 1 target server dedicated for the import of a package?
2. If it is not possible, what are the constraints in fact?
3. Can we have a scenario where Distribution Monitor is used on the source system in order to use the parallelism benefit and Migration Monitor used on the target system?
Thanks for your help & feedback,
Chris

Hi Chris,
1. Can we use Distribution Monitor with 1 source server dedicated for the Export and 1 target server dedicated for the import of a package? The Answer is No
In order to use Distribution monitor, u need minimum two application servers on source systems and correspondingly atleast minimum two application servers on target system
For example let us say Application server A and Application server B on sources systems and Application Server C and Application server D on target ytem
Then configure Distribution monitor properties to include two application servers as source systems and two application servers as target systems. When u exeute distribution monitor preparation, first it scan database servers in source system nd target system and then scan CI servers in source and target system. Then Packages will be distributed in two application servers A and B
Run Export from Application server A for first fifty packages , at the same time Run import these first fifty packages in Application Server C
Run Export from Application Server B for other remining packages and at the same time , run import the remaining packages into Application Server D.
(that is one to one correspondence)
2. If it is not possible, what are the constraints in fact? - There is no constraints. However there is lots of time consuming during Distribution monitor preparation and checking.
3. Can we have a scenario where Distribution Monitor is used on the source system in order to use the parallelism benefit and Migration Monitor used on the target system? - The Answer is No.
You cannot mix distribution monitor tool for source system and Migration tool used on target system.
You have to use any one tool depending on the size of database used.
if your database size used is very very large then recommend to use distribution monitor where u in sou can have multiple R3load jobs in each application server. Say Application server A use 20 R3load jobs and Application server B use 15 r3load jobs).
Thanks

Listener not working in one of the servers of the Standby site

Hello,
The system is a RAC with two servers working as Primary site, and two servers working as Standby site.
Both servers of the Primary site are sending redo logs to one of the servers of the Standby site. The other server of the Standby site is not receiving any redo log.
I have checked the listener.ora and the tnsnames.ora files of the server that is not receiving and it is well configured comparing it with the server that is receiving the redo logs.
If I check the status of the listener: lsnrctl status listener_<node name>
Both of the Standby servers look fine.
But if I connect directly to the database...
In the 1st server of the Standby, the IP appears:
SQL> show parameter listener
NAME TYPE VALUE
local_listener string (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)(PORT = xxxx))
remote_listener string LISTENERS_DB
Nevertheless, in the second server of the Standby site, the one that is not receiving the redo logs, the IP does not appear:
SQL> show parameter listener
NAME TYPE VALUE
local_listener string (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = )(PORT = xxxx))
remote_listener string LISTENERS_DB
I have found the following to reload the listener:
Oracle# lsnrctl reload listener_`hostname`
Oracle# lsnrctl reload listener_standby
Has anyone tried this? Did it work? It can be run without affecting the sytem, Dataguard, replication..., right?
If you have another idea to fix this, let me know please.
Thank you ;)

If I see the status of the listener_standby in the second server of the Standby site, the one that it is not receiving redo logs, it looks like it is fine. Why?

Accessing the EAC in different sites

I currently have an Exchange 2010 environment with a 3 node DAG. All servers are 2008R2 and we have 2 production servers and one DR server (at a remote site).
I am working on upgrading our Exchange to 2013 and have installed 2013 SP1 on -3- 2012R2 production servers and -2- 2012R2 DR servers. The install went smoothly and I have the new 2013 DAG configured with these 5 member servers. I have configured
all of the virtual directories and everything else to get me ready for coexistence.
My question is this. No mail has been directed to the 2013 servers yet and I have just been completing the configuration. I am able to log into the EAC on the -3- production servers by browsing to https://server/ecp/?ExchClientVer=15 and logging
in with our service account that has a mailbox mounted on one of my 2010 production Exchange servers. When I go to the 2013 DR server and go to that address and try to log in with the account, I get a ":-( Something went wrong" error. I
can then mount the service account database on the 2010 DR server and it will let me log into the DR server EAC but then not the production server EAC. Is this expected behavior? Do I need to have a service account mailbox mounted on a server at
each site for administration? I'm just trying to see if I misconfigured something or if this is expected behavior. Thanks.

Hello,
Can you login by using the Exchange 2010 Server Url like
http://Exchange2010/ecp?
You may need to configure the proxy or redirection between the different sites:

ASA Failover when Firewalls are at different sites - help

I am implementing a solution for a customer whereby they have two Cisco ASA 5520X firewalls. They wish for the firewalls to be in an Active-Standby state.
This not only means that if one firewall dies, the other will take over. It also means that any configuration changes made on the primary are copied to the backup.
The only catch is, both firewalls are at different sites. There is no layer 2 WAN link running between the sites. They are seperated by both the internet cloud on one side and their internal company MPLS cloud on the other.
The diagram, that I have taken from my GNS3 simulation and modified slightly, shows the setup. All of the IP addresses (and AS numbers) are made up. Any reflection on real world IPs is unintentional and just a coincidence.
The diagram is probably too overcrowded with IP information than is needed in this question - but the basic idea is the following:
1. Under normal conditions traffic will flow to the internet from the remote MPLS site and leave via the firewall (PAT) at site1 - however note the public range of 23.23.23.0/24 is configured at both Site-1 and Site-2 - so at the moment the internet cloud is prefering Site-1 to reach that range.
2. If the internet link fron INT-PRI at Site-1 fails, remote MPLS traffic destined for the internet will be forwarded out to the internet at Site-2.
3. If the two MPLS links to Site-1 fail, INT-PRI will stop advertising the public range to the internet PE routers and traffic from the remote MPLS router destined for the internet will go out via Site-2.
I have the tracking and dynamic routing failover setup between the sites all configured and worked out (I can provide the details of how INT-PRI tracks a sponge address in the MPLS cloud to determine whether or not it advertises the public range to the internet etc etc if you want, but on this question I want to focus on the firewalls).
Currently the customer has resigned to having to do manual copying between the firewalls every time a change is made (i.e. there is no dynamic failover configured and the Site-2 firewall is just a clone that is kept up to date by their change management team).
Is there a smart way to set up an Active-Standby configuration between these distant sites? Or at the very least dynamically copy the configuraiton to the backup everytime a change is made? My first though would be some kind of EEM or TCL script but I'm not that experienced with either. Alternatively, if there is smart was to get the two firewalls talking over Layer 2 it might be a better way forward.
Thanks in advance. Apologies for this question being too wordy.

You could used Ethernet over MPLS (EoMPLS) or Virtual Private Lan Services (VPLS), though if I remember correctly this is limited to certain platforms and IOS versions.
Here is a design guide you could have a read through on the options

This workflow cannot be imported because it was created in SharePoint Designer for a different Site

Hello everyone. I am getting this error when attempting to move minor workflow changes from mirror SharePoint development / production environments and hoping someone can help me.
"This workflow cannot be imported because it was created in SharePoint Designer for a different site, or the original workflow has been moved or deleted. To move a workflow between sites, use Save as Template (.wsp file) instead of a Visio workflow
drawing."
So basically I have taken an image of our single SharePoint server, Domain Controller, and a client and restored them to an OFFLINE development environment for the testing of workflow changes prior to production. I've put quite a bit of time into one
particularly and would like to export/import rather than re-created from scratch.
I've successfully created the form template and imported. This created the necessary list items nicely and the form appears to work as expected. However, when attempting to import the .VWI file exported from dev SharePoint, I am getting the above
error. If I change the .VWI to .zip and remove the "workflow.xoml.wfconfig.xml" file, then re-zip and change the file extension back to .VWI I get a dialog that allows me to import, but I have to choose a new name and much of the related content
is lost. I need to be able to overwrite/merge the existing workflow with the import. Any suggestions?
One strange thing I ran into was during a test of an export/import from and to the exact same environment. If I simply export to .VWI, then import from .VWI with no changes, SAME everything I still get this error. Very weird. Hoping someone can shed some
light on the subject. Thank you.

SCCM Client on Site Server from Different Site within Same Domain

Our desktop team has a site to manage desktops.
We have a site to manage servers.
Do you see any issue with the Server site managing the Desktop teams servers as their clients?
In other words, desktop wants us to patch and manage their SCCM servers with our site. Placing the SCCM client on their servers pointing to our site.
Thanks for any gotchas!

Are you talking about different (standalone primary ConfigMgr) sites (e.g. site abc is used for managing desktops and xyz for servers)? And now you want to assign the ConfigMgr clients (on servers used in site xyz) to site abc? This does work, but I am not
sure if it is supported.

ITS Login screen behavior different on 2 clustered servers(BBP)-config same

We have a production server(s) for Standalone ITS 6.2 (BBP) with 2 hosts and this is load-balanced and clustered.
The templates for (BBP) bbpstart and bbpglobal for the affected instance are identical on both physical servers.
The services on both the servers are also identical. But yet, Login behaviour on the 2 servers are different.
The servers are :-
Prd:    (Instance) WEP     on server it03 and it04 port 82
URL: http://it03:82/scripts/wgate/bbpstart/!
or URL:
http://it04:82/scripts/wgate/bbpstart/!
Production cluster URL - http://clusterits20:82/scripts/wgate/bbpstart/!
The problem is as follows :-
'The basic issue is that the users have to click on the 'enter' button on the BBP login screen (for server it04) main BBP screen, (hitting/pressing 'Enter' button doesnt work).
But on server IT03 users can just press enter on the login screen on their keyboards for IT03 (server it03) to login ! ..... so depending on which server they connected to within the cluster address they would have to press or click buttons etc to get past the BBP login screen.'
The templates for bbpstart and bbpglobal for the are identical on both physical servers.
The services on both the servers are also identical.
Please advice on how to solve this issue.
Thanks and regards
Avinash
Edited by: Avinash Rajan on Aug 11, 2008 5:33 PM

Hello Avinash,
Did you check the template bbpglobal/99/login.html? That is the actual file being used for the bbpstart service logon screen. The login.html should contain a function for login using the enter (function loginOnEnter(theEvent)). Maybe this is missing from your it04 server?
I would recommend publishing the bbpglobal Internet Service to your it04 server again.

Migration Exchange 2010 to Exchange 2013 in a different site

Hi all, I have
an Exchange 2010 with these characteristics
Site A
- 2 Servers DAG for mailboxes
- 2 Servers Client Access and
Hub Transport in Microsoft
NLB
- 2 Domain Controllers Windows
Server 2008 R2
I want to upgrade to Exchange 2013 but in another
Site, Site B. When the migration is complete,
the mail system will only be in Site
B.
The connection between Site A and Site
B is a reliable connection.
Is there any problem to upgrade Exchange 2013
to another Site, other than Site
A?

It is like any other Migration (Same Forest) You just need to make sure that AD is been replicated from Site A (Exchange 2010) to Site B (Exchange 2013).
No Network or replication issue between the sites. Having more than 1 DC on Site B would be good idea.
Once you have all these set, rest of the things are same.
Extend the AD Schema.
Deploy the Exchange Server 2013 CU6
Create the Cert request for 2013.
Install Cert on Exchange 2013.
Configure the Virtual Directories for Exchange 2013.
Test the Coexistence between 2010 and 2013.
Perform the Cutover from 2010 to 2013.
Test the Cutover and start the Test migration phase.
Once the test phase is fine, start the full fledge migration.
Move Mailbox and Public Folder Database.

How to configure Hyper V VM replication between 2 different sites (located geographically at 2 different cities)

Hi all,
I would like to know how to replicate VM's between 2 different sites which are entirely located at different parts of the cities and also
they are on different domains. Both Servers are running HyperV 2012 R2 Standard. As initial phase I have copied the VM's files (.vhd and other config files) from Site A to Site B.
In this case, can any one please guide me on how to achieve this replication between 2 different sites.
A quick response is much appreciated...
Thanks in advance.

Hi Sir,
I would suggest you to build a site-to-site VPN to achieve this .
Also you need to create a domain trust for two domain , as it has been deployed by other people :

Multiple Domain Controllers, different sites, checking status for replication

Good day,
How can you see what DC has the current "master" or most up to date version? If I have 3 DCs and 3 different sites, and I add a new user at one of the sites, then that site has the newest master. How can I check what version of the Global Catalog / ADUC version / revision they each have?
Is there a CMD / Powershell script to do so?

Sounds like you got a used computer and paid new for it, that's illegal.
