ok but which steps i have to follow ;)All of the steps relevant to your install - you can skip those steps (eg RAC or DataGuard etc) that do not apply to your install.

Does anyone have any idea at all?
I have a feeling it may have something to do with tnsnames, but I'm not sure.

ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forcedSee the alertlog for the reason behind this generic error. Did you only upgrade the software without running the upgrade script according to the README file of the patchset?

Integration - Windows Server 2003/2008R2: Creating a login script that attaches programs to a certain user group. Upgrading to Windows 7/8

We are currently running a windows server 2003 environment with a 2003 server being the DC. We have a couple of 2008 r2 servers that are member servers.
OK...
Our users are primarily operating off of windows xp clients/workstations in which they use RDP to connect to the newer member servers that are windows 2008. With their base profile in xp I am using roaming profiles via server 2003. I am looking to begin
upgrading all of the workstations to all-in-one windows7/8 boxes partially because of cosmetic reasons(#weird) and partially because we will eventually begin using the camera options that are in the all-in-one's.
Also..I must do this one at a time as we don't have the money to do a complete overhaul of all client workstations..If that was the case, I could just redo the network and make those members servers the DC and backup DC as well as add a virtual server
in which everyone can access those legacy programs that are still needed...
As you guys know windows 7/8 boxes will not work with server 2003 and roaming profiles. The reason we don't completely upgrade to 2008 r2 environment is because we are still holding on to a legacy program that requires server 2003 and these programs are
vital to our operation.
So..broken down even further...
A: User is part of a 'LocalAdmins' group that makes them automatically a local admin upon any system within our domain.
B: User logs in to windows xp with credentials in which a tailored made per user roaming profile comes up from server 2003
C: User then logs into one of the two terminal servers via RDP with same credentials and accesses new primary application. To access the legacy applications, they merely minimize their RDP session to get back to the windows xp session.
Ultimately..
1. I'd like to begin replacing option B: with windows 7/8 all-in-ones and and have the RDP saved sessions,that talk to the 2008 member servers, as well as, a few vital ie shortcuts automatically come to all users that are apart of that "LocalAdmins
group period.
2. Setup 1 server 2003 box that runs that legacy program and allow everyone access via a Virtual Environment..
3. If they log into a windows xp box, or a windows 7/8 box, I want them to have access to the same icons.
I guess this is a lot to digest, but my question is, what script could I make that would essentially allow uniformity for both my xp workstations and newly added windows 7/8 boxes? What script could I create that would,I guess reside on server 2003, that
brings all the neccessary icons to the users that are apart of that "LocalAdmins" group despite having a windows xp, 7, or 8 workstation?

" I don't see what the issue is because a logon script will still be managed by Group Policy and will have to be applied using GP rules. In the end you still have to write the script."
You basically contradicted the smug part of your rant and multiple answers with this statement!!! You just recognized that some sort of script would be necessary if I chose to use it via group policy.
But according to you..
"It is not and has never been done via a script."
Clearly it has a section per user for a "profile path" and a "logon SCRIPT". Which warrants my creation of this post since I have currentely implemented
roaming profiles. That is how I am manipulating what users can have on their desktop because of course, we have different users that have different needs. But out of all the users, there are programs that need to be laced and seen upon immediate login.I
will consult other people as this is only preliminary planning but about half of your statements are completely unwarranted and UNNECESSARY!
This statement also proves your additional inaccuracies...
"All of the profile things are handled by Windows and have nothing to do with scripts. You define all of that in Group Policy."
That's just silly talk. I told you in my initial break down of my scenario in an entirety that I am using "tailored made per user roaming profiles" to control desktop environments not group policies in this case. But you just made an absolute statement in
saying "You define all of that in Group policy" which is completely wrong...
Do me a favor, please don't respond to this post anymore. I'd love to see if any other partner, staff or whatever mind responding. Thank you for your help anyway. I will use what is useful in your post and discard the rest.
Thanks

Failed Windows Server 2003 Enterprise SP2 to Windows 2008 Enterprise OS Upgrade

Attempted to upgrade the OS on our Primary Domain Controller which is running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise with Service Pack 2 installed on a HP ProLiant DL360 G4P Server with 2GB of ram, 3.2 GHz Processor and 53.2 GB of free space on C. I took
the following steps prior to attempting upgrade.
1. Determined that Server meet the minmum requirements for upgrade.
2. Installed all Windows Updates.
3. Uninstalled McAfee Virus Scan Enterprise Application
4. Backed Up and Imaged Primary Domain Controller.
5. Tested Domain Replication to ensure Primary and Backup Domain Controllers were communicating with each other.
6. Set Domain Function Level at Windows Server 2003
7. Placed ADPREP folder on C:\ on Primary Domain Controller and ran "adprep /forestprep" and "adprep /domainprep" successfully
8. In the C:\Windowd\System32 renamed the WindowsPowerShell application folder to WindowPowerShell-Old, the application failed the Upgrade compatibility test.
Loaded the DVD: "Windows Server 2008 for Enterprise, Standard and Datacenter 32bit Edition", ran installation in upgrade mode to preserve existing settings and software.  The Ugrade ran to last step, application install and failed at
26% complete with the following errror message:
"Windows installation encountered an error and cannot continue. Your computer will now restart and your previous version of windows will be restored"
My questions are why did the upgrade fail? What can we do to ensure the upgrade will succeed next time?
I have incuded the Setuperr.log below.

Hi,
Here are some limitation of upgrading:
Upgrading is supported from x86-based and x64-based computers, but cross-architecture upgrades are not supported.
Cross-language upgrades are not supported.
Upgrading from Windows Server 2003 to a Server Core installation of Windows Server 2008 is not supported.
We cannot upgrade the failover clusters from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008. Before upgrading, we must uninstall failover clustering.
For detailed information about Upgrading to Windows Server 2008, please refer to the link below,
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc755199(v=WS.10).aspx#BKMK_Supported
Besides, to confirm that it isn't an IO issue, could you please try to copy the DVD to the local disk?
If error occurs, it may be an IO issue.
Best Regards.

Issues when Sharepoint Services 3.0 OS upgraded from windows server 2003 standard to windows server 2003 enterprise

In my sharepoint 2007, I have upgraded the OS from windows server 2003 standard to windows server 2003 enterprise R2 SP2. After the OS upgrade when I run the central admin it's showing this error "Microsoft Windows Sharepoint Services 3.0 Error 2908
error has occurred" screen shot below of the error.
Any help?

Not sure I can help. In general MS does NOT support the upgrade of the Underlying OS without re-installing SharePoint. Many of the prerequisites that were installed when SharePoint was installed are OS specific. You can either contact
Product Support and see if they can provide any assistance or re-install SharePoint from scratch and re-attach/migrate all the existing databases with content into the new system on the new OS.

Do I need to upgrade Windows Server 2003?

What roles are you running on your Server 2003? Less than 15 workstations, any plans for future growth?

I work at a small office, pediatrics. I want to know if I still need to upgrade our server since we are using cloud-based for our EMR system. We only have less than 15 computers running on Windows server 2003. The server is mainly used for shared folders and shared printers only. I need your advice.
Thank you.

Auto rollback with no error when upgrading windows server 2003 sp2 to windows server 2008 R2

Hi, I have a server needs to upgrade from windows server 2003 sp2 to windows server 2008 r2.
It should be supported from technet site
And yes, it went through all the list of upgrade. After rebooted, it told me "the upgrade was not successful, Your previous version of windows is being restored. Do not restart your computer during this time.".
Is there a place located the upgrade failure log? What's the common cause about the auto roll back?

Thanks for the reply.
I copied some sentences in Setuperr.log

Upgrading windows server 2003 domain controller to windows server 2008

Hello friedns :
We have a company with about 2000 users , and two windows server 2003 domain controllers , one of them acts as a primary domain controller , and the other acts as secondary domain controller , all the FSMO s are on the primary DC ,we have decided to upgrade all of our servers from windows server 2003 to windows server 2008 , the first step is to upgrade the domain controllers to windows server 2008 , our domain controllers are so sensitive and has to be active 24 hours a day , i have stress upgrading it to windows server 2008 , what is the best solution to upgrade it with no risk ?
( i have an opinion but i am not sure and i dont have any guide about it , i want to install a windows server 2008 and promote it as an additional domain controller to the windows server 2003 DC and the transfer all the FSMOs to it , and then promote the first domain controller !!! is that possible ? if yes , is there any guide about it? )
If there is a guide available for it please let me know . (Specially if there is a tip & trick)
thank you guys.
Network is my LOVE

Hi,
This TechNet online article might be helpful for you.
How to Upgrade Domain Controllers to Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee522994(WS.10).aspx
For your convenience, I have list some general steps for your reference.
Since the following operation have potential damage to Active Directory database, it is highly suggested that you'd better perform a full backup of Active Directory (System State) firstly. Also it is better to test the following procedure in a similar lab environment first.
General Steps:
=============
1. Verify the new server's TCP/IP configuration has been pointed to the current DNS server.
2. Make the new server become a member server of the current Windows Server 2003 domain first.
3. Upgrade the Windows Server 2003 forest schema to Windows Server 2008 schema with the "adprep /forestprep" command on old server.
Please run the "adprep.exe /forestprep" command from the Windows Server 2008 installation disk on the schema master. To do this, insert the Windows Server 2008 installation disk, and then type the following command:
Drive:\sources\ADPREP\adprep.exe /forestprep
4. Upgrade the Windows 2003 domain schema with the "adprep /domainprep" command on old server.
Please run the "adprep.exe /domainprep" command from the Windows Server 2008 installation disk on the infrastructure master. To do this, insert the Windows Server 2008 installation disk, and then type the following command:
Drive:\sources\ADPREP \adprep.exe /domainprep
5. Insert Windows Server 2008 Installation Disc in the new server.
6. Run "dcpromo" on new server to promote it as an additional domain controller in existing Windows 2003 domain, afterwards you may verify the installation of Active Directory.
Please refer to:
How to Verify an Active Directory Installation in Windows Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816106
7. Verify the new server's TCP/IP configuration has been pointed to current DNS server.
8. Enable Global Catalog on new server and manually Check Replication Topology and afterwards manually trigger replication (Replicate Now) to synchronize Active Directory database between 2 replicas.
Please note: It will some time to replicate GC between DC, please wait some time with patience.
9. Disable Global Catalog on the old DC.
10. Transfer all the FSMO roles from the old DC to the new DC.
Please refer to:
How to view and transfer FSMO roles in Windows Server 2003
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324801
11. Verify that the old DNS Server Zone type is Active Directory-Integrated. If not, please refer to:
How To: Convert DNS Primary Server to Active Directory Integrated
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/816101
Note: Active Directory Integrated-Zone is available only if DNS server is a domain controller.
12. Install DNS component on new server and configure it as a new DNS Server (Active Directory Integrated-Zone is preferred). All the DNS configuration should be replicated to the new DNS server with Active Directory Replication.
13. Make all the clients change TCP/IP configuration to point to new server as DNS.
14. You may configure TCP/IP on all the clients, or adjust DHCP scope settings to make them use the new DNS server.
Please note: It is a good practice to make the old DC offline for several days and check whether everything works normally with the new server online. If so, you may let the old DC online and run DCPROMO to demote it.
Hope it helps.

Wilson Jia

Upgrade has been disabled : Windows Server 2003 to 2008 Upgrade

To whom it may concern :
I have a virtualized Windows 2003 Web Edition (x86) that needs to be upgrade to Windows Server 2008 (x86). It has several web applications installed and configured thus clean install of Windows Server 2008 is not an option.
In short, I get a "Upgrade has been disabled" message.
It also says, "You cannot upgrade from Windows Server 2003 Web Edition to Windows Web Server 2008. You can upgrade to ." Would you please help?

Looks like you'll need to clean install it.

Upgrade from Windows Server 2003 to 2008

Hi Experts,
We are currently running SAP BPC v 7.0 for Microsoft in a Windows Server 2003 environment. This is not a production application right now as we are doing discovery work in SAP BPC 7.0. For another project, we need to upgrade to windows server 2008.
We are trying to figure out if the SAP BPC will still work after the upgrade. I know SAP BPC is compatible with Server 2008, but do we need to start of a fresh installation or the upgrade will work. We are trying to figure out if we should plan some time to reinstall SAP BPC and re-do the work we have done in BPC once it has been upgraded.
Thanks a lot!

At this point, BPC 7.0 for Microsoft is not certified for Windows 2008. So, if you prepare and execute the upgrade to the server OS, support may not assist if you find any issues. We plan to be certified on Windows 2008 with the next release of 7.5 for BPC.
Hope this helps.

Upgrading Virtual Windows server 2003 to 2008

We currently run VI 2.5 with 3.5 U2 servers in a cluster. I was trying to upgrade (in place) a Windows server 2003 st. to Windows Server 2008. However when doing this the guest becomes unresponsive at (completely black screen in the console windows) and the setup reboot the guests and I boots back into 2003 (stating that the setup/upgrade failed). Is there a trick I need to be aware of?

A big thanks to you my friend... I followed your steps and it actually works on my environment... currently I got 2-3 more Windows 2003 servers that needed to be upgraded to Windows 2008. However to save cost we are doing it ourselves... below is the steps I taken following your steps:
Do note that I did this in VSphere 4.0 Update 2 version. One more thing... Ensure you got at least 20GB HDD free space in boot drive before you do the steps below else it will be like me the first time doing it...
1. Windows 2003 VM - Remove/Uninstall the VMware Tools from the Control Panel.
2. Shut down the Windows 2003 VM. You do not need to restart because you need to change the Guest VM OS from Windows 2003 to Windows 2008 R2. Once the Guest OS is changed, start the Windows 2003 VM.
3. Suffer a bit on the screen resolution but you can tweak it back to 1024 x 768 using the default VGA drivers. Recommend to do this so that it would be easier to work with a bigger desktop.
4. Go to the Device Manager Tab to disable the "Base System Device". This took me a while to confirm the location because of the bad mouse (It will happen after VMware Tools is removed).
5. Proceed to do the Windows 2008 upgrade.
Hope this steps will help others...

Windows server 2003 Standard edition RAM Upgrade

We are using Windows server 2003 Standard 32 bit edition in our office With HP ProLiant DL580 Generation 5 hardware , We are trying to upgrade RAM to 8 GB from 4 GB but it is not taking, It is detecting 8 GB RAM while booting but not showing in my computer
property.
Same thing we tried with Windows server 2003 Enterprise edition and it is working fine there.
Is there anyway to upgrade it ?

It is normal. You simply need to use a 64 bit OS.
You need to re-install the OS to be running a 64bit version as no in-place upgrade is supported.

Errors in Unity 4.2(1) after OS upgrade to Windows Server 2003

I upgraded our Unity VM only server to server 2003 and reinstalled Unity 4.2(1) and restored untiy from backup. After the restore there are multiple errors in the Application log. I have engaged two different Cisco TAC people and neither of them could help me in resolving these problems. Makes me lose confidence in Cisco when I can't even get an American based engineer who knows anything about Unity! Hopefully someone here knows something.
Application Log errors below:
CiscoUnity_Notifier - Event ID 1071 and 1023,
Active Server Pages - Event ID 5,
CiscoUnity_ConvSubscriber - Event ID 187,
VBRuntime - Event ID 1,
CiscoUnity_BMsgConnector - Event ID 10005.
DBWalker returns1 error relating to orphaned entries in the GlobalSubscribers table:
*** Check for orphaned GlobalSubscriber table entries ***
1649:(error) 2 invalid rows found in the GlobalSubscriber table
These rows have no corresponding GlobalLocation table entry and are likely 'stranded' in the directory from a previous install.
The following rows were found to be invalid:
Alias=USbms_FLAPK001-T03, SubscriberObjectID={069E45E6-B471-4C7C-A4F1-07EE0248EA25}, Bad LocationObjectID={63285FC4-1DCB-4C93-9903-DFAD724D548E}
Alias=Unity_FLAPK001-T03, SubscriberObjectID={A1E42B80-AF4E-42CF-A2D0-12E2BEA862B4}, Bad LocationObjectID={63285FC4-1DCB-4C93-9903-DFAD724D548E}

I'll have to look into this a bit more but I can tell you what this essentially means. There are 3 main system accounts that Unity sets up when the application is installed (assuming you integrate with Exchange 2003). You actually specify the location for these objects during the permissions wizard and etc. The 2 accounts here are the primary system account for handling outside calls (Unity_) and the account used for failsafe operations (USbms_) - they are the 2 orphaned entries you see. It appears the location specified for these accounts may have been invalid during the reinstall or there was some other yet to be determined issue at play here that caused these accounts to be orphaned which is not good.
When you installed Win2K3 and then reinstalled Unity, did you set up Unity to the exact version and ES that your last DiRT backup was saved at? Also, did you specify the same OU's and etc when you ran the permissions wizard for where to import objects, create objects, and etc.
Can you attach a copy of the installation log and other application logs? I'll try to look further and see if I can be of more assistance.

Windows Server 2003 32bit in-place upgrade to Server 2008 32bit

I'm attempting an in-place upgrade from Server 2003 to Server 2008. The upgrade will proceed through 3 reboots until it reaches 77% complete and then just stops. I'm assuming that there is a problem with a driver, but I have no way to be sure
since there is never any error message. If I hard-reboot it will roll back to the original OS. Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas?

I'd check the log file for the hang/rollback reason.
