Upgrading OES2sp2/SLES10sp3.. done at the same time how?

I was reading through the inst-oes-lnx.pdf doc (for OES2sp3) to upgrade our OES2sp2 server, and section 5.2.2 clearly states, "You must upgrade SLES 10 and OES 2 at the same time". This line is confusing me badly.
The problem is, following along the online(rug) upgrade section (Section 5.4.5), I see it says only to download the move-to-oes2-sp3 patch, after which there are more rug commands, some configuring, and at least one reboot. It doesn't explicitly say anything about a move-to-sles10-sp4 patch (except that it cannot be used to upgrrade OES2 SP3) until Section 7.4.1, Updating the Server Base form SLES 10SP3 to SLES10 SP4.
So... they're done sequentially, OES, then SLES? Or am I off here? That would mean for a time, the server is running as OES2sp3/SLES10sp3. That doesn't seem to meet the "same time" requirement.
But if they are to be done simultaneously, which is what "same time" means to me, then I'm at a loss.
Does the move-to-oes2-sp3 patch automatically add the move-to-sles10-sp4 patch? That seems to be hinted at by line 5 of Section 5.4.5 Performing the Upgrade: " Install the recommended patches that are in the channels using rug up -t patch -g recommended && rug ping -a." (But why then have Section 7.4.1?)
I don't have the luxury of development or test servers to play around on, being tight budgeted, our servers are in production- I have to get this right.
Thanks!

The "move-to-oes2-sp3" patch will take care of upgrading the underlying
SLES10 SP3 to SLES10 SP4 at the same time as upgrading OES2 SP2 to OES2
SP3.
Do NOT try applying the "move-to-sles10-sp4" patch on your OES2 server
unless your server is already at OES2 SP3 but on SLES10 SP3 - there was an
oddity with OES2 SP3 where it didn't fit the "OES2 SPn is only supported on
SLES10 SPn+1" rule as was originally supported on SLES10 SP3.
If you're unsure, please post the output from "cat /etc/*release" and we
can advise which patch you need to install.

And I strongly suggest making sure you have the ability to do the offline media upgrade in case something goes wrong. We had horrible luck with the online/channel method from OES2 SP2 to OES2 SP3 upgrades getting stuck sometime after the "move to" script executing and not completing.
Never had the media method not work, however.

Upgrade and change plan at the same time

My husband and I have phones on the old Family Talk plan. We want to upgrade to iphones and at the same time, switch to the More Everything plan. I can't seem to find a way to do this. When I start with the upgrades I am only given the option to add data to our current plan, not to change the plan completely. Do I change the plan first, then come back and upgrade or vice versa?

Try voice chatting with a rep on Verizon's website. It's under contact toward bottom of page. I would think you need to change the plan first then the phones, but I would check with them.

If i have my mac mini and my mac air connected to my thunderbolt display at the same time how do I switch between each of them without unplugging one of them?

If i have my mac mini and my mac air connected to my thunderbolt display at the same time how do I switch between each of them without unplugging one of them? (By the way im mirroring my macbook air to my thunderbolt display not dual screening it)

That's not what home sharing is for or how it works.
You want the remote app.

Upgrading Logic and Mac at the same time?

Hey, I need a bit of help. I am curenttly running Logic 7 on a 2.0 dual core powermac G5. When Apple release the penryn chips I will sell my G5 and get a new mac book pro. I want to upgrade to Logic 8 (the UK upgrade price is about £130). However would I need to install logic 7 on the new mac to be able to use the upgrade? Sorry if this sounds stupid! I don't really wanna be installing old software on my new mac. Could someone explain how this would work. I would prefer to keep everything new and simple, for some reason I have an image of installing 7 and then upgrading to 8 is gonna eat all my memory and hardrive space and muck up the new machine?! Kinda wanted to start afresh with new computer, new software etc. There is nothing I need to bring over from my copy of Logic, no tracks or plug-in's or anything. Also another factor is I think I have 7 or 7.1, not sure that will even run on the new intels will it? If I remember I think 7.2 was the intel upgrade. If I had the money I would just buy it from scratch but I don't have the money and spent about £600 on it originally so would prefer to keep costs down!
Cheers

No, just install Logic 8 and have your XSkey handy.
Logic 7 installation is not required (or even advisable.)

I have 2 tv's that I want my apple tv to show on (same view, at the same time) How can I do this?

How do I set up 2 tv's to show one apple tv? I want the same screen in different rooms with one being hooked up directly to one apple tv.

If it's an AppleTV 1 (silver) it has HDMI and component.
Black AppleTVs only have HDMI.
The copy protection lobby insist that AppleTV uses HDCP copy protection for protected media and you are unlikely to find a legitimate consumer device that can convert video from HDMI to an analogue format to distribute to other TVs, VCRs, DVD recorders etc.

Upgrade Many CUE modules in the same time

Hello,
We have about 320 branches contain CUEwithout going to every module one by one? modules need to be upgraded from version 7.1.7 to 8.5.1. Is there a way to install all of the modules one shot without upgrading one by one (Please note that we dont have any cisco nms or managment software for such purpose).
Appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Amr Sherif

Cisco doesn't make such an application, so you would have to write it yourself, or engage a programmer that can do it for you.

When I open Firefox browser, as well as my homepage opening, a new tab also opens at the same time how can I stop this please?

This problem has only just started and I don't know why. When I click the Firefox icon to open the browser, my homepage tab opens and another new tab opens up alongside my homepage tab. I have checked and the are no pipe characters in my homepage addres.

I restarted Firefox in safe mode then reset it all and it has worked, thanks for the solution.

New computer & going from PE7 to 8 at the same time, how do I move

Here's the situation
     Old computer - XP, running Photoshop Elements 7
                         - All pictures are on an external hard drive (drive letter I:)
                         - 2 catalogs - MyCatalog, Tess's Catalog --- each have a couple thousand pictures, they've been tagged, organized, etc.
     New Computer - Windows 7, running Photoshop Elements 8
                         - disconnected the external picture hard drive from the old computer and attached it to the new computer (now drive letter E:)
What steps do I need to follow to get the new computer to recognize the 2 catalogs that were previously created on the old computer?
Thanks,
Tess

On the old computer, in the PSE Organizer (probably need the drive with the photos attached), select File->Backup Catalog. Create backups, one for each catalog.
On the new computer, in the PSE Organizer (probably need the drive with the photos attached), select File->Restore Catalog. Point it to the backups you made.

Dbua upgrading multiple db at the same time

hi
in rac environment is it possible to run multiple dbua to upgrade 2 db's at the same time ? they both share the same rac db home.. i dnt think if its possible to run both from nodea but what if i run one from nodea and one from nodeb? will that work ?

in rac environment is it possible to run multiple dbua to upgrade 2 db's at the same time ?Yes you can execute two binaries at the same time.
they both share the same rac db home.. DBUA will upgrade database not ORACLE_HOME so if you are going to upgrade you will stop the database.
i dnt think if its possible to run both from nodea but what if i run one from nodea and one from nodeb?It will happen because before upgrading you need to shutdown, so it is possible
will that work ?Yes but very careful .. :)

Two different Resultsets for the same query (running at the same time)

I am using the Thin Driver for Oracle 8.1.6. I am invoking queries in multithreading mode (each thread has his own connection to the oracle DB). If i am invoking the same SQL-Statement in two different threads nearly at the same time, only the ResultSet of the first query is complete. The ResultSet of the second query is not complete (the number of tuples differs each time I run the program). Principally the two ResultSets should be the same (no changes are done at the same time in the DB), but they are not.
Anybody knows this problem and knows how to solve it? Principally read accesses on DBs should not make such trouble ...
I hope anybody can help me.

Pranav,
As this BADI is having option checked 'Multiple use'. You can implement multiple implementations.
You need not to deactivate the existing implementation.

Import PST files for multiple users at the same time?

While importing PST files into archive mailboxes, the Exchange 2010 mailbox server went to 100% CPU and memory usage and I could not stop the imports because the EMS stopped responding. We had to restart the whole server to get back to normal.
Not sure if importing PSTs was the cause of it it was a coincidence. We have done imports the same way before without this issue.
How many PST imports can be done at the same time and how do we queue up multiple users and have the mailbox imports have unique names for each user? I noticed they are always called MailboxImport and MailboxImport1 and then it starts over as MailboxImport
again for additional users. So, if more than one user's PSTs are being imported at the same time, we will have multiple identically named imports running.
We would like multiple users' PST imports to queue up and start automatically when the previous users' imports complete.

Please try like this. Rename folder name same as alias. i.e. \\server\share\<alias>. below are examples.
"\\server\share\jsmith"
"\\server\share\tjones"
"\\server\share\rsmith"
"\\server\share\bspears"
"\\server\share\mmouse"
And run below command to take PST from the corresponding
foreach ($i in (Get-Mailbox)) { New-MailboxImportRequest -Mailbox $i -FilePath "\\Server\share\$($i.Alias)\$($i.Alias).pst" -baditemlimit 50 -acceptlargedataloss ;while ((Get-MailboxImportRequest -mailbox $i | ? {$_.Status -eq "Queued" -or $_.Status -eq "InProgress"})) { sleep 180 } }
If a folder missing with the alias you will see an error similar to this.I think this will work for you. You just keep only the required PST folders to import in the "\\Server\share" folder.
"Unable to open PST file '\\server\share\mmouse\mmouse.pst'.
Error details: Could
not find a part of the path '\\server\share\mmouse\mmouse.pst'.
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (0:Int32) [New-MailboxImportRequest], RemotePermanentException

Running two stepper motors at the same time from one port

Hello,
I have to run two motors at the same time - one used to move a linear ball screw and one to turn a grip. I am doing tension and torsion testing on small wires, but tension and torsion have to be done at the same time. I also have to build in the ability for each motor to take multiple steps, ie. have a motor take x number steps at y velocity and then move x number of steps at z velocity. Both motors need to be able to do this. However, I am having problems getting the motors to run at the same time and to take all the steps. The motors are connected to two RMS Technologies R356 controllers. Both of the controllers are then connected to one RS485 to USB converter card, and that card is connected to one of the USB ports in the computer. Currently, I pass an array of commands to two for loops each containing VISA read and writes. I've attached the vi to look at. All of the timing stuff in the code is because a new command cannot be sent to the controller before the motor is done executing the previous command. If commands are sent right after one another, the controller will only execute the first command and then return with an error.
Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I'm not too clear on exactly what you are trying to accomplish or some of the details.
Are there equal number of torsion and tension steps?
Is there a pairing between a torsion and tension? For example, you want to tension and torsion simultaneously, but those two together make a complete step?
Do you want to wait until both the torsion and tension have completed before moving on to the next torsion/tension pair?
Is there any time delay you want to hold at before moving on to the next step.
When working with state machines, it is important not only to define the states, but also the logical stepping from one state to the next, or alternatives based on conditions. It could be flowchard, but sometimes people call them state charts.
Right now your latest posting has goes to "Write to Motor" event though and will wait there forever because there is nothing in the queue to write out through the VISA port.
Let's assume your first state would happen to be Enqueue Tension (in order to get something in the queue), you will actually queue up all your tension commands at once with the For loop. Then i will be 1 less than the size of the array it always will be because for an array size n, i will go from 0 to n-1 on each iteration. So your false case will run and you will go to "Write to Motor". Write to Motor will run and dequeue the first command then go to Waiting for Response. Waiting for response will iterate through the while loop until 66 or 67 comes back. I assume only 66 will come back for tension since you have yet to write a torsion command. Once that comes back, it will go to Enqueue Tension again and insert a whole other series of commands. Then go back to write Motor and will take out the 2nd queue element from the first set of commands your wrote. It will stay in a Tension mode and the Queue will grow endlessly putting in a whole new series for each element that you dequeue.
A state machine is the way to go, but I can't really sketch one out for you because I'm not sure exactly how your applications is supposed to work. If a tension and torsion command are paired together, perhaps you should just queue them together and write them out at once. But the key thing is to sketch out on paper your application and flowchart exactly how the program should progress from step to step.
PS: One other thing, make sure you wire the queue reference wire through all states.

How to access variuus database servers at the same time.

Hi All,
Here, i've to access more than one databse servers at the same time.
i've to fetch some data from AS400, and some from MS-Access and SQL-server. The problem is this should be done at the same time.
What should i do. Plz. help.
Thx. in advance.

what is exactly "at the same time"
what could prevent you from opening multiple connections?

How to run save for web and contact sheets at the same time

Hi
my question is simple and a means to save time-
Lets suppose I have 3 camera images and I want to run either save for web applications on 2 cameras at the same time, how/can i do that to save time or lets say contact sheet action on 1 and save for web on the other to save time or photoshop files and this runs in the background?
would really help save me time.

Even if you could run the three process in the background at the same time I do not think the duration of the total execution time would be any shorter. You would still be executing the same number of processor instruction reading and writing the same number of files. If the whole processor was constrained by the processing power running them cuncurrenly may increase the processing time because of contention for the processor. If the processes are IO bound that will not change a overlaping the processes may cause more hard disk seaking because of contention of the hard disk arm.
