Uninstall TS Device CALS - Windows 2008 Standard Edition
Hi,
Please help me to Uninstall Terminal Server Device CALS.
I have 25 Remote Desktop Services Device CAL but at time of activation; by mistake i Installed 30 and 25 Licenses accordingly. So i want to reset this license
database and re-install /activate the same as my license agreement.
Hi,
You need to contact the Clearinghouse with your license agreement numbers, etc. again and explain to them that the licenses were installed as Per Device and you need
re- install /activate. They will help you install them again as Per Device.
The article below can help you find their phone number (it is for windows 2000, but is still relevant, just substitute "Remote Desktop Licensing" when it mentions
"Terminal Services Licensing".)
HOW TO: Locate a Phone Number for the Microsoft Clearinghouse
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/291795
You can also revoke Client Access Licenses (CALs) manually.
Please refer to the following article for detail:

8 vcpu for Windows 2008 Standard Edition Guest
Hi,
Due to a software requirement, I'm investigating the possibility of creating an 8 vcpu Windows 2008 Standard Edition 64-bit guest.
In Vsphere, its possible to create an 8 vcpu windows 2008 Standard Edition guest by configuring the "cpuid.coresPerSocket" parameter to 2, which allows the Standard Edition windows license to see 8 cores without violating the standard licensing which caps it at 4 processors.
Is there a similar functionality in Oracle VM Server?
Thanks.
Terence
Edited by: 835043 on 8/02/2011 19:53Hi Simon,
Read that link you sent and I believe it allows us to play around with cpu cores in Windows Standard Editions in virtual environments.
"Software run in a virtual OSE is licensed based on the number of virtual processors used by that virtual OSE. If the physical processors in the server have two cores, each virtual processor also has two cores from a licensing perspective."
So its up to us to configure the cores as it defaults to single core for each vcpu.
I've tested in vsphere using 4 vcpus and setting it for 2 cores each. The OS sees only 2 processors but I've got 4 threads in task manager. If I revert to 4 single core vcpus, the OS sees 4 processors.
I'm trying to see if I can do the same in Oracle VM and am trying to understand the cpuid setting in the vm.cfg. The examples given in xmexample.hvm-stubdom are for Intel 8 core and AMD 5 core but all I have is AMD dual core.
So trying to figure out how to set it correctly in my situation. Haven't found any detailed documentation for configuring those ebx, ecx, edx settings. -
I have been using Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition for my business purpose and there are at-least 30 Users who logged in into the server Via Remotely from different location. I want to upgrade my server with latest one with some extra cores and RAM for
better and smooth operations for all users. So, i have a doubt whether my CAL Licenses will works with Windows Server 2012 or i need to purchase the new one for the same?
Moreover, if i don't upgrade my Windows to any 2012 edition and stay on 2008 Standard Edition how much maximum RAM can be installed at a time? is there any limitations? if Yes, please let me know how do i upgrade my Windows 2008 Standard Edition to any other
business edition to avoid such limitations of RAM?
Waiting for your favorable and quick response.Hi again,
th eupgrade optiuon from Standard 2008 to Enterprise 2008 was only available for customers with open value contract with activ esoftware assurance then they can purchase the step up license from Standard to Enterprise.
the only way to have the Enterprise 2008 Edition is to make th edowngrad efrom 2012 Standard to 2008 Enterprise. it means that if you purchase the 2012 R2 Standard Edition, you may downgarde to Enterprise 2008/2008 R2. th ebest way to make the downgrade
to 2008 R2 Enterprise is to purchase the current Version 2012 R2 Standard in volume licensing than you can download diretly from VLSC the Enterprise Edition.
with your downgrade you can still using the 2008 CALs.
thanks

Windows 2008 Standard SP1 will Support MS SQL Server 2008R2 Enterprise Edition ?
Dear ,
Currently we are running MSSQL Server Enterprise 2008 Edition on Windows 2008 Standard Edition 64Bit (.Net 3.0). Now we are upgrading the MSSQL Server to 2008R2 Enterprise with SP2. Will it support to upgrade on the same OS or do we need still upgrade

Windows 2008 standard hangs during chkdsk
I have a file share server running windows 2008 standard edition. It is connected to a SAN via Fiber channel. There are 4 volumes presented to the Server via the SAN. After a critical error occured, I restarted the server and the OS requested
that I run chkdsk on the SAN volumes. I allowed it to run. It quickly got to the indexs, but then got hung at about 49% in stage 2. After letting it set for several hours, I was forced to hard boot. Upon restart, I did not allow the
chkdsk to run as this is a production server. The server booted up with no issues and all of the data was intact. I recently migrated the data via Thin Import to a new SAN. All of my data now resides on a brand new set of discs in my compellent
array. To save down time, I presented the volumes to the server using the same drive letters. The server immediatly asks to run chkdsk on these volumes. I run chkdsk and it still hangs in the same spot on the indexes. I've made snapshots
of the volumes and presented those to another server. After running a rescan in disk managment, that server requests a scan and fix. I let that run and it completes. I'm at a loss on how to correct this issue. The data seems fine, but
chkdsk will not complete.Hi,
Stage 2: Chkdsk checks the directories in the volume. Based on your description, please use
chkdsk /x command to force the volume to dismount. Then check if you can execute the process of chkdsk successfully.
Meanwhile, please go to Event Viewer and check if you can find some related errors.
Hope this helps.

USB Controller Driver (3.0) for Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition 32-bit
Hi,
I have recently built a HP DL320e Gen8 v2 server with Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition 32-bit & it's missing the USB Controller Driver which HP don't have. I have searched endlessly online without success. HP suggest I try Windows but I couldn't
find it in the Download Center either.
Can somebody please provide me with the USB Controller Driver for Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition 32-bit?

For this issue, i think you need to search in the HP official website or contact the HP support.

Migrating windows 2003 standard edition to windows 2008 enterprise edition
Hi
We are using ECC 5.0 and our PRD system is running on windows 2003 standard edition,and recently we have got some physical memory problem.as windows 2003 standard edition supports only 4 GB of RAM. and we want to extend our RAM for that we are planning to upgrade os to windows 2008 enterprise edition,is that possible.and after upgrading OS what are the activities that need to be performed for SAP to run succesfully,kindly suggest.
Regards
PranavHi Markus
I read note SAP Note 690432 - Windows 2003 Support in it regarding upgradation of os windows 2003 standard edition to windows 2003 enterprise edition.
Upgrade of Your Operating System
If you upgrade an existing SAP system to Windows Server 2003 perform the
following actions:
o Install the latest R3DLLINS
You find the latest dynamic link libraries R3DLLINS for Windows
Server 2003 on the EXT-Kernel CD in the NTPATCH directory.
o Replace the R/3 kernel with the EXT-Kernel.
If you do not replace it you will get error "SICK" after the first
logon attempt after the start.
In this case, download the disp+work package(s) from the SAP
Service Marketplace at service.sap.com/patches and unpack the
patch(es) to directory usr\sap\exe:
dw*_<patch-level>
Use at least patch level 186.
o Use the latest saposcol version.
This version supports the changed performance counter of Windows
Server 2003 to determine values for ST06 and RZ20.
You can find the latest version in file saposcol_<Patch Level>.CAR.
in the SAP Service Marketplace.
o SAP DB only: See SAP Note 315237.o Compatibility of the Hardware with Windows Server 2003
You can perform the upgrade to Windows Server 2003 only if the
hardware has been explicitly released for this purpose. To check,
do one of the following:
- If the Windows Server 2003 CD is available, check compatibility
with WINNT32.EXE in the \I386 directory. The exact statement
is: <DRIVE:>\I386\WINNT32 /CHECKUPGRADEONLY. The result is
stored as text file WINNT32.LOC in the present Windows
directory (e.g. C:\WINNT).
- The hardware has successfully passed SAP hardware certification
(http://www.addon.de).
- The hardware is contained in the Microsoft Hardware
Compatibility List (http://www.microsoft.com/hcl).
- The hardware has been released for Windows Server 2003 by the
manufacturer. This information is published on the
corresponding website.
o Kerberos Single Sign-On
When the SAP system is installed on Windows Server 2003 you can
setup the Kerberos Single Sign-On. If you use the kerberos protocol
the information exchanged between the SAP frontend and the
application server for authentication is encrypted.
The procedure for setting up Single Sign-On is described in all
recent installation guides which you can download from the SAP
Service Marketplace at: service.sap.com/instguides.
o SAP domain under Windows Server 2003
Follow the instructions of the Windows documentation for the
migration of a Windows NT 4 domain to Windows 2003. For the SAP
environment some additional points need to be observed.
For Windows NT 4 there are two models for the SAP system domain:
- Single domain
All users and the SAP system build one single domain. This
domain can be migrated to Windows Server 2003 and exist there
as single domain.
- Additional domain
There is one domain for the users and a second domain for the
SAP system(s). For a migration to Windows Server 2003 the SAP
system domain has to be created as child domain under the user
domain. A "Top-down" procedure is to be used. The higher domain
(the user domain) must be migrated prior to the SAP child
domain. If the user and SAP domain is part of a larger domain
structure the complete domain structure for Windows Server 2003
needs to be planned in a preparing phase. Usually, the
structure created under Windows NT 4 has to be re-arranged and
consolidated.
The name space of the root domain and all sub-ordinated domains
has to be defined and the distribution of the DNS services
needs to be determined.
Note the following:
The SAP domain has to be created as child domain.
The SAP domain must not be converted into an organizational
unit (OU). OUs are not supported by R3SETUP and R3up.
in it nowhere it is mentioned about system copy so plz suggest. -
Maximum Nodes supported for NLB and Cluster in Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition ?
Hi.
I am looking for information How many nodes supported for NLB and Cluster in Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition ?
If you can provide for all the versions that would be great.
-Thanks
- Ajay ChananaHi,
You can configure a Windows server 2008 NLB cluster with up to 32 nodes. However,
scaling beyond 8 nodes will cause a slight performance hit because the network traffic is broadcasted to every node and only one NLB node accepts the connection.
For more detailed information, please refer to the link below:

For the captioned issue, is it possible? We have successfully created linked server between 2 MS SQL server 2008 standard edition, but failed for the standard and express edition. Is there any trick to setup? Thanks.
Hello,
SQL Server Management Studio Express Edition may not allow to create a linked server, but the workaround is to use the T-SQL. You can use sp_addlinkedserver and sp_addlinkedsrvlogin.
Hope this helps.

Hi,
I have Oracle 11g ODAC 11.1.0.6.21 installed on my Application server that has 32 bit Windows 2008 Standard. The Oracle database 10g is installed on another 2008 server. On database server I can connect using SQLPlus. But on application server I cannot connect using ODAC SQLPlus. I have given correct service name in tnsnames.ora file.
Error is ORA-12154 TNS: Listener cannot resolve service name
What's wrong? Is 11.1.0.6.21 not meant for Windows 2008? I did not get any errors while installing.
This 11.1.0.6.21 works perfectly for me on XP machine.
I have browsed this forum but not getting clear steps to peform.
Can someone guide me what is needed?
Thanks
ShriniHi,
The request to connect from the client is reaching the server but it seems the parsing of the service name is either wrong or the information is correct. Here are a couple of suggestions.
If you have a good known set of sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files on another client where the same connection descriptor works, then backup the curreny client network config files and copy the good known files to the Windows 2008 web server where you see the error. Make sure you recycle the worker processes once the files have been copied.
Try to connect via Ezconnect and by pass the config files to see if you get the same error.
//hostname:port/servicenameofdb
where hostname is the machine where the target database is running
port is the port on the DB machine where the tns listener is running and listening
service name is the service name of the target DB
Use this syntax in the connect string box when attempting to connect from SQL PLUS out of the ODAC home.
You can also run lsnrctl utility on the server and vertify there is a handler for the service name or instance that is the target,
