Turning off the server
I am moving my server from a G4 to a G5. I will use the same License. Eventually the G4 will be reloaded with a client version of Mac OS X.
Not surprising, when the G5 boots, it discovers the G4 is still running with the same license and so it refuses to work. I can shut both down, boot the G5 and then boot the G4 and that "works" but if I ever reboot the G5, I have to shutdown the G4 first.
Is there a way to just tell the G4 to stop working -- disable it from working?
Thank you,
Perry Smith

Pull the power cord?
Short of that it sounds like you're asking for advice on how to circumvent Apple's license agreement and I don't think you're going to find much help for that here.

Unpluggin the Ethernet is Different Than Turning Off The Server!
Hi All,
I am working with a cFP2020 with a 4 space backplane. I am running Labview 8.0 RT. Have not gotten around to putting in the latest set of CD's I just got sent. I have the whole setup on my desk here and am noticing a potential problem for my application. Was hoping that someone could explain this to me?
I am building a vehicle, with the cFP on the vehicle and a PC controlling the vehicle. Mostly Im turning on lights and reading sensors on the vehicle, but I am transmitting some commands.
My perfect world would be that if I lost communication between the vehicle and the PC, that the vehicle would recognize this within a reasonable ammount of time (1-2 seconds) and stop itself. I would like a whole routine for "com failure" to run if that is the case.
My questions:
It does not look like I want to use the fieldpoint watchdog because everything I have read indicates that on a watchdog com error, the fieldpoint shuts down. Am I wrong? Should I look further into this?
I wrote my own watchdog. It sends messages back and forth on shared variables. If a message is late, it turns off a light (using cFP led's on the main module.) The PC VI is running as part of the project. The Vehicle VI (on the cFP) is compiled as an application that runs on startup. I have experimented alot with failure situations. The following work fine:
- Stopping the PC VI that communicates with the vehicle VI. The light on the cFP turns off fine.
- Stopping the Shared Varaible Engine. "Undeploy" on the shared varaible in the project. The light turns off fine. Infact both the PC and the Vehicle VI's register the dissconnect with their lights.
The following does not work right:
- Unplugging the ethernet link! The VI on the vehicle (cFP) is still running (got another blinking light going), however it takes 11-16 seconds for the light to turn off, indicating the disconnect. This is quite a bit longer than the other methods that work fine (those are about 1-3 seconds). Can anyone think what is going on?
I know this seems like an essoteric question, but it gets to the protocal for the cFP. Should I be running my PC VI as an application? I am running it in the project.
Thanks

As an aside, is there a way to deploy an application and have it run immediatly upon deploy. I am having to reboot to run the application. I notice different performance if its running from the project v. it running as an app. Since I will be using it as an app in the final product, I want to test it that way.
Thanks Again -Kevan,
The quick answer is that most NI ethernet protocols are implemented with 10 second timeouts. This is different than the undeploy in that stopping the shared variable engine will send unsubscribe messages rather than timing out. (Note: I am making an assumption on how the shared variable protocol works because it is partially based on the older Logos protocol used in Fieldpoint, and that is how the closing works for Logos).
As for the watchdogs, there are two watchdogs in [c]FP RT modules; the RT watchdog (which can reboot the controller) and the network communications watchdog (which can set one or more outputs to a desired state on loss of communication).
For a very rapid communication link disconnect, implement the shared variable as a boolean that has it's state inverted every half second. Have the [c]FP controller read the variable and look for changes in the state of the variable. If the variable does not change at the update rate (with some small margin for timing), then you have probably lost the link prior to getting a full network timeout.

Crypto-Locker: Just turn off the Server service?
We had six of our clients get infected with the latest strain of Crypto-Locker in the past two weeks, so we've had a lot of recent practice fighting it.Of course, the first thing we were doing after identifying the infection, was taking down the file server to stop the corruption.After dealing with the first three, it occurred to us, instead of shutting down the entire file server--and possibly killing DNS, AD, and whatever else is on the server--why not just disable the Server service? That should kill all of the shares at once but leave things like DNS and other non-NetBios network calls alive. It’s also usually faster than completely downing a busy server.We tried this on the next three of our clients that were infected with Crypto-Locker, and kept a close eye on the files on the server. Sure enough, it seems to have instantly...
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks CommunityHow do you get online then?
I was just browsing AT&T tariffs and comparing them to their UK counterparts. Do you not get unlimited WiFi? (As in WIfi provided by or in partnership with your carrier).
I just see this which leaves me wondering;
+AT&T is Apple's exclusive carrier partner for iPhone in the United States. An eligible data plan for iPhone is required. This data plan covers data usage in the United States and does not cover international data usage and charges. *If AT&T determines that you are using an iPhone on your account without an eligible data plan*, AT&T reserves the right to add an eligible data plan to your account and bill you the appropriate monthly fee.+ -
Can I turn off the monitor for Mac Mini and use it as a music server?
I am in the process of upgrading my PC most likely to a Mac product. With the non-server version of Mac OS X, can I turn off the monitor connected to a Mac Mini and use it as a streaming server? Or I have to get the server version of OS X to do that?
I plan to run Logitech Media Server on the Mac to stream music to players. Each player interacts with the Logitech Media Server to select songs to stream. When I turn on a player, it will wake up the computer from the sleep mode.
Currently, this Logitech Media Server runs on a Windows Vista machine and it will keep the PC from entering sleep mode while playing the songs. After I play the last song, the PC will start the idle count down and then enter into sleep mode.
Do you see any problem with my intended use of a Mac Mini? -
Is it more secure to turn off the DHCP server in router?
I read that it is more securer to turn off the DHCP server in the router?
Is this true?If you google the question you'll find articles claiming that disabling autmatic DHCP makes a router more secure. For example: http://netsecurity.about.com/od/quicktip1/qt/qtwifistaticip.htm
On the other hand, there are articles debunking this (and other ideas) as myths:
http://www.zdnet.com/blog/ou/the-six-dumbest-ways-to-secure-a-wireless-lan/43 -
This past month I have been having problems connecting to my home wireless connection. I have a MacBook Pro OSX Version 10.6.8. Previously I had no problems whatsoever. I have tried unplugging the wireless router, turning off the wirless airport, deleting the network name from my list of servers and trying to reconnect this way. These methods have worked temporarily, but the same problem keeps coming back. Most of the time my personal wireless connection does not even come up among the list of available networks. My fellow flatmates have PCs and both of them are able to connect to the network without problem.
The router is a d-link model DIR-615. I am not tech savy, so if any other information need to be provided in order to better understand my situation, please let me know.
Please help me!If I open the list of networks in a window it says "connection timeout," but if I just select it from the drop down it tries for awhile and then stops with no prompt. When I try to run network diagnostics it says "sorry, we can't connect to the internet" (or some solution-free variation of that)

How to safely turn off the computer while the motion servo is still enabled?
When we use PCI-7344 and set it for serve closed control, I have found a very serious problem
in using the control card in this mode.
As the card is able to control motors only with the computer at power on status, but if we are very
carelessly to shut down the computer and without the notice to turn off motor driver power first
we would always get serious sudden moves of the motors, and might cause damages to the system. The same situation also applies to when control the motors under open/closed loop stepper mode.
How should I do to prevent the above situation?
(note: in my system, we have hook up relays and timers if we could set DIO bits before shut down
the computer. But
still, there are a certain occassions that the operator would still forget to set the DIO bits
and turn off the computer directly)The Inhibit output pin of the motion controller (also called drive enable) is the best way to achieve this. It is basically a signal that most power drives take in as an active low input so that when the powergoes out of the computer, the line goes low and immediately kills the axis so that no servo ouptut command affects the motor.

Streaming audio data won't stop unless I turn off the phone for 5 minutes.
I have been testing the Curve 8330 regarding streaming audio from an icecast server. The address of the station is http://www.AirProgressive.org, click on "listen". (I have already run this by the icecast experts and they say it is a Blackberry "bug")
BLACKBERRY USERS! PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE STREAM (dataflow) DOES NOT STOP WHEN YOU CLICK "STOP" ON THE MEDIA PLAYER! (and will continue for as long as you leave it on, and even if you turn off your BB for less than 5 Minutes.) I'm not sure if you are charged for these streams, but it seems that the battery is depleted rapidly if this continues without aborting it. See details of my testing below:
> Access icecast stream by clicking on the link on the website:
http://www.airprogressive.org:8000/stream.m3u
> Stream consists of mp3 at 32kbps / 22050 Hz.
> Stock media player launches, stops at "Do you want to open or save the item."
> No connections started yet (viewing "List Clients" page of icecast admin interface).
> Click "open", stream begins playing.
> Two connections are started instead of just one, always offset by 2 seconds.
-- but sometimes only one connection starts.
> FYI, Icecast config: <client-timeout>30</client-timeout>
Here is the output from the "List Clients" page of Icecast2 Admin

I can understand that the player may continue to communicate when "stopped" to fill the lookahead buffer, but when it is restarted, it should use the same connection and not start a new one.

So, to stop the streaming server from communicating with the Blackberry handset, you must either turn it off or disable mobile network for at least 5 minutes.
It appears that the handset continues to transfer data (and therefore incur charges, if the user does not have an unlimited data plan) if the handset is not turned off or mobile network disabled for at least five minutes. It also runs down the battery much faster because the radio transmitter is actively being used, even if the user is not listening to the stream.
The Blackberry network has intervening servers that continue to receive data from the streaming server even if the handset is off. This behavior likely has utility to deal with the realities of the cellphone network, to allow the stream to be transferred from one cell to another, and deal with the possibility that the handset may be out of range for up to 5 minutes without "interruption." However, it is hard to turn off the stream.
QUESTIONS:
1. Is there a way to stop this sort of behavior using a configuration setting or something? It seems particularly stupid to start a new stream connection each time a STOP/START cycle is completed, allowing the old connections to continue streaming data (even if the data does not make it to the handset).
2. IS IT TRUE that the user will be "charged" for the data streams that are not disconnected?
3. Is there a way for a developer to send a signal to the intervening cellphone network to discontinue the orphan streams?
THANKS!!No, I'm using something like this :
to start...
channel = new SoundChannel();
soundPlay = new Sound();
urlReq=new URLRequest;
urlReq.url=mylUrl; // url of radio mp3
soundPlay.load(urlReq);
channel = soundPlay.play();
to stop it...
channel.stop();
channel=null;
try{soundPlay.close();} catch (e:Error) {} // error or not, the sream won't stop.
Any idea ? Did you try with a NetStream object ?

HT1657 How can I turn off the scrolling movie ads in itunes store?
How can I turn off the scrolling movie ads across the top of the screen when I open the itunes store and am in the movies section?
Thanks varjak paw.
I was afraid this was the case. To the degree that Apple marches down this well-travelled road towards making money by trying to pound customers into submission with flashing ads, etc. that actually serve only to aggravate and drive away at least people like me (28 year user of macs) from both Apple and whatever is being advertised, and indeed get in the way of my being able to efficiently do what is my part of what I always thought was the core of the synergism between Apple and its customers -- them innovating to provide the best tools to help us to be creative and productive, then the company will find itself sharing that space with myriad other companies so bankrupt for ideas and innovation that they have no other possible strategy that to promote mindless consumerism. That does not seem a place of strength for Apple and a complete forfeiting of its unique position. Sad to watch. -
I tried to set the setting on a laptop in our domain from "turn off the display after 5 minutes" to "never".
the button is greyed out.
I tried the advanced settings, even that won't work.
Os on the laptop is windows 8.1 Pro, the laptop is a member in a domain.
Anyone knows this issue?
thanks,Hi,
Are you referring to this?
Please check the policy Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Power Management\Video and Display Settings
(if deployed by a GPO created by server in a domain, then check Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative Templates\System\Power Management\Video and Display Settings)
in the right pane, find "Turn off the display (Plugged in)", check whether it is configured to a specific data.

How do I turn off the album art in ios 7 iphone?
How do I turn off the album art in itunes on my iphone with ios 7?
I want to turn it off because it is not aesthetically pleasing and it makes the scroll list really long by pushing the title text further apart.
A few of the albums have the wrong artwork, which will push me over the edge. I don't want to fix the artwork. I just don't want the artwork.
Please tell me how I can turn it off.
Thanks,

HT5858 how do you turn off the need to hit enter once the password is entered
How do you turn off the need to hit enter once a password is entered?
Can you try logging on as another administrative user? (Make another user, if necessary.)
And just for the heck of it, if you click the lock and unlock the rest of the controls, does the checkbox appear?
Another thought: is your computer part of a Windows domain or other network? Is there a policy on the network to require a screen saver password? (For example on my office's Windows network, a screen saver password requirement is set in the Group Policy. I'm assuming that something similar can be done with an OSX server, if you haven't joined the Mac to a Windows Active Directory network.) -

Well, if you're running linux you could use Runtime.getRuntime().exec() to execute 'halt -p', if the process was being run as root. Not terribly elegant but I suppose it would work. Although I wouldn't want an unattended process running as root.Yes, this is how you can do it, but on Windows machines as well. I'll go into pseudocode:
App1: Server (running on every lab machine)
open server socket on port X
wait for connection
verify connection is yourself so that not everyone can shut it down
if not, wait for connection again
if it is, run halt for linux or shutdown for windowsApp2: Client (running on just your computer)
open a socket to each machine running the server app (or you could use multicasting)
validate yourself however you did that
close socketThere are some implications of this though - unless your validation mechanism is decent, pretty much anyone can shut down anything they want. Also, if you don't check for a logged-in user, you may destroy someone's work. Just keep those in mind.
Also, if it is a Windows setting, there are usually better ways to do this - a well-managed windows network has built-in functionality to shut down computers remotely.

All,
My client copy is really big.
How can I switch off the Transaction logs in SQL server whie doing client copy.
I DO NOT want Trans log keep increasing.
In oracle, I can turn off the archive logs.
Please advise.
Thanks again and hope to hear from you soon.
From,
PT.Hello,
the log backup on simple mode is not necessary. The full database after switching back to full is a must.
Please keep in mind, that even running on simple mode the log can be filled up, as all transactions are still written to the log. Commited transaction then can truncated from the log. But when you run a hugh transaction like a client copy, the log might grow as well. The log will be freed once the transaction commits or rolls back. And no, you can't split a client copy in several transactions.
Best regards
