Troubles with GPT file system

Hello everybody,
i got a motherboard MSI 760GA-P43FX
and i experience the following issue:
i bought a SSD disk KINGSTON SSDNOW 120GB, trying to do a fresh windows 7 installation (64bit) on it.
Later, i need to install the TRUE CRYPT to encrypt that SSD harddrive,
unfortunately, the WIN7 formats the SSD disk with an EFI (GPT) file system again and again,
and the TRUE CRYPT does not support GPT file format only the older MBR.
I red plenty of stuff on this issue, some people who got lucky and bought other motherboard
can choose between EFI and old MBR (Legacy) when booting from the DVD drive.
Unfortunately, i could not find any option in my BIOS to disable the EFI
or on the boot-up to choose non-EFI booting from DVD.
(i red somewhere when i would be able to choose the older non-EFI booting from DVD when installing the WIN7,
the WIN7 will automaticaly format the SSD with a MBR which is what i need.)
Please dont tell me i need to buy another MB, the funny thing is, i bought the same motherboards,
installing the same system, all is the same, SSD, CPU, RAM, everything is the same,
but on my 2nd machine i am just not able to go through the EFI issue.
On my 1st machine i have installed everything properly, SSD works fine with the true crypt,
all is fine! I assume the version of BIOS could be different or i dont know.
Anyway, I wont use any HDD bigger then 2 TB so i dont need any EFI file system.
I am desperate, can anyone help?
thanks!

Hello t:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Do those applications open from the application folder? If they do:
Try trashing a preference file and restarting (com.apple.dock.plist).
If that does not help, drag the icons that do not work off the dock (poof sound). Then go to the application folder and drag the appropriate icon to the dock.

Troubles with xmp files not loading...

I'm having troubles with xmp files not loading with images but are present in the image folders. does anyone know why this is happening and if there is a way to fix this. Also when trying to load the xmp individually they are grayed out and unable to load. I have tried this on different machines (Macs) and still no luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated in this issue.

> The information contained in the XMP file is stored in the DNG file so there is no need for a separate file.
Aww, yuck!! That's a real drag...
When editing lots of files (yesterday's shoot produced 8GB) I back everything up to off-line storage and then, after doing all my edits and crops in ACR, I only have to copy over the small XMP files which takes no time at all.
So if I re-edit the DNG with ACR I have to re-copy ALL the files again to the off-line storage.
I used to sometimes even save 2 versions of the xmp files when I needed 2 different crops of the same images, such as doing a wide screen 'cinema' crop for a corporate client's Intranet presentation of their event, as well as more standard crops to be used for their newsletters.
Guess I won't be using DNG any more..
Thanks for the help Kees :-)

Confusion with OCFS2 File system for OCR and Voting disk RHEL 5, Oracle11g,

Dear all,
I am in the process of installing Oracle 11g 3 Node RAC database
The environment on which i have to do this implementation is as follows:
Oracle 11g.
Red Hat Linux 5 x86
Oracle Clusterware
ASM
EMC Storage
250 Gb of Storage drive.
SAN
As of now i am in the process of installing Oracle Clusterware on the 3 nodes.
I have performed these tasks for the cluster installs.
1. Configure Kernel Parameters
2. Configure User Limits
3. Modify the /etc/pam.d/login file
4. Configure Operating System Users and Groups for Oracle Clusterware
5. Configure Oracle Clusterware Owner Environment
6. Install CVUQDISK rpm package
7. Configure the Hosts file
8. Verify the Network Setup
9. Configure the SSH on all Cluster Nodes (User Equivalence)
9. Enable the SSH on all Cluster Nodes (User Equivalence)
10. Install Oracle Cluster File System (OCFS2)
11.Verify the Installation of Oracle Cluster File System (OCFS2)
12. Configure the OCFS2 (/etc/ocfs2/cluster.conf)
13. Configure the O2CB Cluster Stack for OCFS2
BUT, here after i am a little bit confused on how to proceed further. The next step is to Format the disk and mount the OCFS2, Create Software Directories... so and so forth.
I asked my system admin to provide me two partitions so that i could format them with OCFS2 file system.
He wrote back to me saying.
*"Is what you want before I do it??*
*/dev/emcpowera1 is 3GB and formatted OCFS2.*
*/dev/emcpowera2 is 3GB and formatted OCFS2.*
*Are those big enough for you? If not, I can re-size and re-format them*
*before I mount them on the servers.*
*the SAN is shared storage. /dev/emcpowera is one of three LUNs on*
*the shared storage, and it's 214GB. Right now there are only two*
*partitions on it- the ones I listed below. I can repartition the LUN any*
*way you want it.*
*Where do you want these mounted at:*
*/dev/emcpowera1*
*/dev/emcpowera2*
*I was thinking if this mounting techique would work like so:*
*emcpowera1: /u01/shared_config/OCR_config*
*emcpowera2: /u01/shared_config/voting_disk*
*Let me know how you'd like them mounted."*
Please recommend me what i should convey to him so that i can ask him to the exact same thing.
My second question is, as we are using ASM, for which i am gonna configure ASM after clusterware installation, should i install Openfiler??
Pls refer the enviroment information i provided above and make recommendations.
As of now i am using Jeffery Hunters guide to install the entire setup. You think the entire install guide goes well with my enviroment??
http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/hunter_rac11gr1_iscsi.html?rssid=rss_otn_articles
Kind regards
MK

Thanks for ur reply Mufalani,
You have managed to solve half part of my query. But still i am stuck with what kind of mount point i should ask the system admin to create for OCR and Voting disk. Should i go with the mount point he is mentioning??
Let me put forth few more questions here.
1. Is 280 MB ok for OCR and voting disks respectively??
2. Should i ask the system admin to create 4 voting disk mount points and two for ocr??
3. As mentioned by the system admin.
*/u01/shared_config/OCR_config*
*/u01/shared_config/voting_disk*
Is this ok for creating the ocr and voting disks?
4. Can i use OCFS2 file system for formating the disk instead of using them as RAW device!!?
5. As u mentioned that Openfiler is not needed for Configuring ASM... Could you provide me the links which will guide me to create partition disks, voting disks and ocr disks!! I could not locate them on the doc or else were. I did find a couple of them, but was unable to identify a suitable one for my envoirement.
Regards
MK

All this system is doing is connecering to a folder on our File System.
Any help would be great as this is really frustrating!
Thanks

It is currently set to admin, user and does not seem to work!

Having trouble with wav files and sample rates

Hi ,I am having trouble with wav files and sample rates .I have been sent multiple projects on wav as the main instrumental ; I wish to record in 48.000kHz .Now comes the problem.When I try to change the project to 48k It seems to pitch up the track.I can't have them send the logic/project file as most have outboard synths,different plug ins etc.This particular case the producer has recorded the synth task in 41.000 kHz .My successful outcome would be to be able t create a project file in 48 kHz .And NOT pitch up whne I add the instrumenta wav file .Any help would be gratefully recieved,this is my first post so any mistakes I may have made go easy

You'll have to convert the actual synth audio file file that the producer gave you to 48kHz. You can do this in the audio Bin in Logic.

Troubles with .m1v Files

Hi All
I am having trouble working with .m1v files in Adobe Bridge CS3 2.1.1.9.
I exported the .m1v (video only mpeg files) in Adobe Premiere Pro with the Adobe Media Encoder.
But now, when I try to add metadata to these .m1v files by right clicking on one- the right click menu no longer has file info as an option. And further, under the file menu- file info is grayed out when a .m1v file is selected. I also tried selecting the .m1v file and clicking in the IPTC core dialogue box, but when I do this, Bridge gives me an error box that reads: "This property cannot be modified"
Any Ideas???

It's simpler to just reinstall the OS, followed by running Software Update. Reinstalling shouldn't take too long and only replaces the system components and the basic Apple apps, leaving all settings and other files alone.

Crystal Reports XI String [255] limit with the File System Data driver...

I was trying to create a Crystal Reports XI report to return security permissions of files and folders. I have been able to successfully connect and return data using the File System Data driver as the Data Source; however the String limit on the ACL NT Security Field is 255 characters. The full string of data to be returned can be much longer than the 255 limit and I cannot find how to manipulate that parameter.
I am currently on Crystals XI and Crystal XI R2 and have applied the latest service packs but still see the issue. My Crystal Reports Database DLL for File System data ( crdb_FileSystem.dll ) is at Product Version 11.5.10.1263.
Is it possible to change string limits when using the File System Data driver as the Data Source? If so, how can that be accomplished. If not, is there another method to retrieve information with the Windows File System Data being the Data Source? Meaning, could I reach my end game objective of reporting on the Windows ACL's with Crystal through another method?

Hello,
This is a known issue. Early versions you could not create folder structures longer than 255 characters. With the updates to the various OS's this is now possible but CR did not allocate the same space required.
It's been tracked as an enhancement - ADAPT01174519 but set for a future release.
There are likely other ways of getting the info and then putting it into an Excel file format and using that as the data source.
I did a Google search and found this option: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/16772-45-display-explorer-folders-tree-structure-export-excel
There are tools out there to do this kind of thing....
Thank you
Don
Note the reference to msls.exe appears to be a trojan: http://www.greatis.com/appdata/d/m/msls.exe.htm so don't install it.

Btrfs with different file systems for different mount points?

Hey,
I finally bought a SSD, and I want to format it to f2fs (and fat to boot on UEFI) and install Arch on it, and in my old HDD I intend to have /home and /var and try btrfs on them, but I saw in Arch wiki that btrfs "Cannot use different file systems for different mount points.", it means I cannot have a / in f2fs and a /home in btrfs? What can I do? Better use XFS, ZFS or ext4 (I want the faster one)?
Thanks in advance and sorry my english.

pedrofleck wrote:Gosh, what was I thinking, thank you! (I still have a doubt: is btrfs the best option?)
Just a few weeks ago many of us were worrying about massive data loss due to a bug introduced in kernel 3.17 that caused corruption when using snapshots. Because btrfs is under heavy developement, this sort of thing can be expected. That said, I have my entire system running with btrfs. I have 4 volumes, two raid1, a raid0 and a jbod. I also run rsync to an ext4 partition and ntfs. Furthermore I make offline backups as well.
If you use btrfs make sure you have backups and make sure you are ready to use them. Also, make sure you check sum your backups. rsync has the option to use checksums in place of access times to determine what to sync.

Cannot uninstall Exchange 2013 from Server with REFS file system

EX2013 SP1 installed fine on the 2012 R2 server with REFS, but now I need to remove it and reinstall. When I go to uninstall it, I get an error that "the specified installation directory must be located on a NTFS file system". I have tried
via control panel and command line.
I could avoid the uninstall if I could replace the Enterprise Edition license key with a standard key. the "Change License Key" option only allows you to go from standard to enterprise.
Any advice on either issues? (uninstall from REFS or change enterprise key to standard key)
According to the below TechNet article REFS is supported for an install, but maybe not an uninstall
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee832792(v=exchg.150).aspx

Hi,
1. I suggest romving previous Exchange server via ADSIEdit.
NOTE: It is better to try the steps with the assistance of a MS support. Do remember to backup the AD.
2. Then reformat the file system to NTFS.
3. Last, reinstall the new standard Exchange version.
Thanks

Trouble with mpkg files

Hi,
This is my first question on this forum... My Ibook (G4) running with OS X 10.3.9 doesn't want to open mpkg files anymore, wich makes me unable to install any new software (ILife O6, for example).. Have you ever encountered this problem, and if so, is there an answer to it?... Thank you all very very much!!!

Double clicking won't work unless you mess with the operating system...
That's rubbish.
If the manifest file has the correct information what class to start (Main-Class:...) and the JRE is properly installed the system will know what to do when someone double-clicks a jar.
It will open the jar try to read the Main-Class section of it and try to start that class.
@see http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/jar/basics/run.html

Uninstall Oracle Culster (RAC) & Oracle Database with Raw File System (LVM)

Hello,
I have configured "Oracle RAC" with "Database" on Hp Unix 11.23 Platform. The shared storage is based on "raw" file system,which has mounted through "SAN" Storage. We have used total 18 LV (logical volumes) for oracle & clusterware.
By mistaken, I have configured wrong "Public, Private IP Address & Virtual IP Addresses" during RAC installation,thus my oracle "crs" is not working perfectly. So, is it possible to modify the "public,private & Virtual" IP Addresses? If Yes, provide me the step by step modification link.
Moreover, I would like to know certain steps to uninstall entire "Oracle Clusterware & Database." Kindly do the needful the "uninstallation" steps & is it necessary to remove & recreate LVM partitions, on which "oracle crs & database" has installed?
Advanced Thanks,
Nishith Vyas

Hi,
You haven't told anything about version...
By mistaken, I have configured wrong "Public, Private IP Address & Virtual IP Addresses" during RAC installation,thus my oracle "crs" is not working perfectly. So, is it possible to modify the "public,private & Virtual" IP Addresses? If Yes, provide me the step by step modification link.BTW, this thread has information that can drive You to this change:
Re: Is it possible?
Moreover, I would like to know certain steps to uninstall entire "Oracle Clusterware & Database." Kindly do the needful the "uninstallation" steps &Again... No versions, but You this thread can drive You to this
How to cleanup / remove RAC installation (CRS,RDBMS,ASM)
is it necessary to remove & recreate LVM partitions, on which "oracle crs & database" has installed?I don't think so. If all steps on uninstalling procedure don't work, You'll can try "zero" the information on the raw device using dd.
Hope it helps,
Cerreia
