Updated server 2012 MP to 6.0.7061.0 but still seeing MAX API alerts

I'm seeing alerts for
Alert: Max Concurrent API Reached alert
Source: Microsoft Windows Server 2012 Standard
On most of my domain controllers, however when I look at the counters and do the formula it looks like my max api setting should be fine at 1....is this still a bug?
Pulled this data from the alert context in SCOM 2012

I have updated to the newest software on my iphone 5 but still have the red notification circle on the settings app. How do I get rid of it?

I have updated to the newest software on my iphone 5 but still have the red notification circle on the settings app. How do I get rid of it? TIA for help.

OK, a couple questions for you. You say you have "the latest" iOS update installed on your iPhone, but you don't mention what version that is. Would you please tell us what the version number is for your iPOS installation? Also, you have the "banner" on your Settings App, but is the banner for in iOS update, or is it for something else? Do you have a new provile, or an expiring profile, or possibly Notifications that may be triggering that?

I installed OSX server 10.6 snow leopard on my IMAC, but still have choppy videos. can anyone tell me how to fix the problem

I installed OSX server 10.6 snow leopard on my IMAC, but still have choppy videos. can anyone tell me how to fix the problem

By your use of "still", did this problem exist before OS X Server was installed? OS X Server itself has no particular linkages to video processing, beyond what OS X client provides.
Some details on the configuration might be useful. Are these videos you're having issues with stored locally in files, or are these videos received over the network and played? If the videos are local, have you tried playing the videos from a different disk? If the video files are remote, can you download the videos and play them as a test?
What software are you using to play the videos? QuickTime? QuickTime X? Does using VLC or another player work better? There are some discussions of choppy videos around the forums, too.

Updating Server 2012 R2 DataCenter Offline With WSUSOFFLINE

Hello!
I Am trying to update a system that is not connected to the Internet and I am not really sure which updates I need.
Server 2012 r2 datacenter roles:
1. DC
2. DHCP
3. DNS
So far... (will have VMware installed)
I will need to update every server on the system via wsus offline (also the client pc's)
is there a bundle of updates for the O.S. (Server 2012 itself) or can you direct me as to where can I download the updates please?
thn'x in advance
Omri

Hi Omri,
essentially you'll have to configure the main WSUS server to sync for whatever products you want to patch (i.e. Server 2012R2, Exchange 2013, etc), and select the update classifications (critical updates, service packs, etc), and then export/import those
to the disconnected WSUS.
It's not really practical to try and figure out exactly which updates are needed on which machines, using the approach above the clients can then determine, based on their own configuration, which updates are applicable.

Windows Server 2012 R2 (VM). KB3000850 installed successfully but then after reboot it couldn't complete update & uninstalls

Hi,
Every time we try to install KB3000850 on a Windows Server 2012 R2 (Virtual), it says it installs successfully, reboots, but then before the logon screen comes up it says "We couldn't complete the updates, undoing changes..." and it uninstalls
the update. Yet, when you look at installed updates, it shows KB3000850 yet it's still availabe when you look for new updates, and if you run the update again manually, it doesn't say that it's already installed. What gives? :)
(no hyper-v)
Thank you!

Hi,
Please refer to Dave’s suggestion and check if help you to solve this issue.
Just addition, please also refer to following KB and check if can help you.
"Failure configuring Windows updates. Reverting changes.
Do not turn off your computer" error when you try to install Windows updates
Meanwhile, please check Windowsupdate and CBS log files if fine more relevant clues.
If any update, please feel free to let us know.
Hope this helps.

...that no computers are registered to receive updates (Server 2012) WSUS issue

Hi
Server 2012 64-bit WSUS install
I have trolled as many forum posts as possible but they seem to relate to older versions of Windows OS.
I have clicked the "To set up a client computer" and followed all the steps to create a GPO etc.
However the computers on the domain still look to the internet for their updates and not the WSUS server despite the policy in place.
WSUS is sync and I have 1987 security updates waiting, 626 critical updates waiting etc.
I have approved 562 updates and declined 1338 so far.
I have created 8 separate computer groups.
What can I do to get my domain computers looking to the WSUS server to receive their updates?
Many thanks
Leo

I would suggest starting with
Update and Configure the Automatic Updates Client Computer in the WSUS Deployment Guide, and the
Step-by-Step Guide to Understanding the Group Policy Feature Set.
The links provided point to solutions for much older OS. I am running a Windows 2012 Server environment with Windows 8 OS on client PC's. All the data provided on the link is for Server 2000/2003 and Windows XP. Must I assume that nothing has changed in terms
of registry values and methods of solution?
Very little has changed, the principles are the same, the Admin UI has evolved/modernised somewhat.
Windows8 does have a slightly changed auto-updating behaviour (relating to the post-install-restart behaviour) , but this is able to be modified with a GP setting.
The main settings for a client, continue to be controlled by the same registry settings (keys/values), and this can be configured by GP, and the resultant settings can be observed in the registry.
The applied settings, are consumed by the WUAgent and output to the windowsupdate.log, so it's easy to confirm if your GP settings are being applied correctly as expected.

Install Virtual Guest Services option not updating Server 2012 Guests

Hi,
I'm using VMM 2012 SP1 Update Rollup 3 and Hyper-V 2012.
I have installed KB2908415 hotfix onto our Hyper-V clusters to resolve stability issues with CSVs. Installing this hotfix causes an update in Integration Tools to version 6.2.9200.20873.
If I shut down my virtual machine and use the manual option of "Install Virtual Guest Services" it completes successfully but the Integration Tools aren't upgraded on the virtual machine. This only happens with Server 2012 guest machines
(Windows 7 and Server 2008 R2 guest machines are updated successfully. I have tried refreshing the virtual machine in VMM so the Integration Tools version is displayed.
VMM mounts the iso from c:\windows\system32 onto the virtual machine but the install doesn't seem to start.
Has anyone managed to get this working?
Thanks,
Emma

I attempted to create a new VM and was met with the same error but I'm able to create a VM using Hyper-V manager.

Wsus synching but now updating server 2012

Hi
I recently installed WSUS on server 2012 64bit. Everything installed fine I configured it right as well (I guess)
Update directly from MS
No Proxy server
Created Group policy for client
Created computer group
Now in console I can do the synchronize fine but my download status still says - 0
I tried to approve few critical updates but still nothing
I can browse all the sites and I can manually update Windows server so thinking I am connected to internet ok and sync is 100% succeeded
What am I missing here --- Please help
Regards
Manoj Nain

Hello,
Updates will be downloaded when you approve it, but it will take some time to download the files.
And you may get a message like this:
If so, what you should do is to wait. Once the downloading is finished, it can be applied to clients.
Hope this helps.

Update Server 2012 to Server 2012 R2 and keep DirectAccess configuration?

Hi!
Does anybody know if you can upgrade an existing Windows 2012 Server with
DirectAccess to Windows Server 2012 R2 without losing or wrecking the DirectAccess configuration?

Hi There - Done it quite a few times and works without issues - as long as the Server Name, IP's and everything stays the same it will be fine.

SQL Server 2012 Installed KB2793634 and it completed successfully but display error in the event log

Hi
Running SQL Server 2012 with SP1 on Windows 7 x64 SP1
One of the machines that this is installed displayed that the Windows Installer was starting repeatedly, like every 30 secs
I installed KB2793634 and everything completed successfully. No errors in any of the Summary, Detail, etc and all check marks at the end. I went throught the event viewer and in the application log and saw the following
Product: SQL Server 2012 Database Engine Services - Update '{4023B523-7241-4B6D-83A4-92105B0A3DC8}' could not be installed. Error code 1642. Windows Installer can create logs to help troubleshoot issues with installing software packages. Use the
following link for instructions on turning on logging support:
Is this something with the KB. How do I find what the issue is and what do I do to fix it? Or is this a real error?
I brought up SQL Server and the issue that the KB resolves seems to been resolved. I can connect to the instance just fine, the version of the KB has been applied to the instance so now it is at 11.0.3128
Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
According to the description, I know the patch that was successfully installed after the msiinstaller error.
1. Per
KB304888 and mentioned the possibility that the hotfix was launched a second time after the initial successful update.
I suspect if you have installed any hotfixes or Cumulative updates after installing Service Pack 1 for SQL Server 2012.
Reference:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2793634
2. Check the application log. Is the error happening intermittently?
Thanks.

Windows storage server 2012 share not connecting by share name but connecting thru IP address from windows XP machines

We have a windows storage server 2012 (HP storage server) in our domain. All of sudden We had a issue, connecting the server shares using the share name only from XP machines, but it is connecting through IP address with a delayed response. We are getting
the below error message from all the windows XP SP2 machines in our domain.
"\\<share name> is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource. Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have a access permissions.
Login Failure: The target account name is incorrect."
But it is connecting while we are trying from windows 7 machines. Also the other server shares (Windows 2003 server) are connecting without any issues using the share name. In addition to this we gave everyone permission for this share. And it worked
well before but not now. Could you please suggest any solution for this complex issue?
Thanks,

Server 2012 Local Shares - Cannot access using \\IP but works via \\localhost

I've been stuck on this problem for the last couple of days and I can't find a solution on the internet that works.
I have a Windows Server 2012 instance running on Amazon AWS with a public IP address. I am using it as an SCCM (System Center 2012 Configuration Manager) Server (so it is a Domain Controller also). I realize that it's probably not best practice to use a public
IP here, but I'm in a weird position where we are not connecting any of the Clients to the actual Domain (they are Workgroup computers all around the world). The goal here is to use SCCM to deploy software packages to all of the Clients, which are not on the
same LAN/VPN/Domain.
This is my first time setting something up like this, so I followed this guide. I am able to get the Workgroup computers to show up in the SCCM Server Device list (via manual client install), but these Workgroup computers need access to the Server's shares
to download the software packages. On Amazon, I opened all ports and allowed all IPs to communicate with the Server. I am able to RDP into the Server from any Workgroup computer using the IP address, but cannot access the Server's SMB shares even though I
am attempting the connection with a Domain account with access to those shares.
I decided to see if I can even connect to the shares locally on the Server. Logging in with an account with administrator privileges, I can access \\localhost\shares without
a problem. But when I try to do \\X.X.X.X\shares,
it asks for user/pass (confirming that it is able to connect) and I put in the correct credentials for the account with administrator privileges (using DOMAIN\ACCOUNT), but it continually says that the user/pass is incorrect. After I click cancel, an error
comes up saying "Error Code 0x80004005 Unspecified Error".
It is crazy to me that the administrator account that is logged in cannot access the local shares via the public IP address... obviously no remote computer would be able to access the shares if the Server itself cannot. I have tried disabling the firewall,
but this makes no difference. I am able to ping the IP from the Server and I get a response.
I have searched around the internet for a solution but nothing has worked. Here are some of the suggestions I've found (that have failed):
- Making sure "Client for Microsoft Networks" and "File and Printer Sharing for Microsoft Networks is installed and enabled for the Ethernet Adapter
- Enabling NetBIOS over TCP/IP in IPv4 properties
- Ensuring IPv6 is disabled
- Server, TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper, and Workstation (services) are all running
Any ideas? Sorry for such a long post, just wanted to get as many details as I could. All help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi,
Are there any anti-virus software or other third party products running on the server? If yes, please disable them to see if it resolves the issue.
Here is a similar thread below I suggest you refer to:

Server 2012 Datacenter - local IIS site opens locally but not from PCs on the domain

This is my first multi-server domain server install on an existing domain. I have a new Server 2012 installed on our domain. This server will host an intranet site, not public facing. I managed to install IIS and have a working ASP/.Net site. I can open
the site while on the server. However, the server denies access to the site from PCs on this domain. I tried changing the security options for the site directory but I can't find the issue.
The directory security objects allowed include:
MYSERVER\IIS_IUSRS
But, "MYSERVER" does not acknowledge the security object:
MYDOMAIN\IIS_IUSRS
What settings have I missed? The default site on port 80 is working locally and from the domain. My site is on port 8080 and is not located under the c:\inetpub folder, where the working default site is located.
Thanks in advance,
Kurt

Update:
I installed SQL Express 2012 and Management Studio 2012 locally on "MYSERVER". Again, I can attach to my instance of SQL locally from this server but using SSMS2012 from my PC on the domain, the SQL instance is not found. This must be related to
the above issue.

Windows Server 2012 , File Share, need to create CNAME but not working

I'm doing a file server migration for an old Netapp and I'm moving all the data to a Windows Server 2012 Standard System. I need to be able to have 3+ cnames for the system so I don't impact existing clients. I have read the below
articles and none of them are working.
Currently I'm getting the following error
"The Mapped Network drive could not be created because the following error occurred"
"The target account name is incorrect"
So I have tried the following without any luck, and these fixes below are supposed to work on Window 2008R2, but they don't on Server 2012
1) use DisableStrictNameChecking registry value
2) use netdom to create another hostname that is bound to the server, netdom computername (mysystem) /Add (newsystemname)
3) I used setspn to create an alternative name for the system
4) tried disabling SMB3
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated, I'm sure this is possible just down know now.

Why don't you just go into DNS and create multiple records for the same IP address?
Or, if you like trying more complicated paths, install DFS and use its distributed naming capability. It can have many, many different names.

When downloading, I am never connected to the update server. It will say it is connecting, but nothing else happens.

I will get a pop-up message that I need to update Firefox. I click the button, and it says it is 'connecting to the update server'. It never connects, because nothing else happens. Even after an hour or two, it is still 'connecting to the update server'. If it matters, I am on a Mac.

If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
