Upgrading only 1 server to sl

We have 3 xserves on our network. 1 g4, 1 g5 and 1 intel all running 10.5.8
The master open directory is the g4 and the other 2 are replicas.
I want to upgrade the intel Xserve to snow leopard so I want to know if it's ok to keep the intel xserve as a replica of a 10.5 OS directory or whether I should make it the master and the other 2 be replicas. Or should I leave them all as standalone.

Yes - exactly. You can connect a server to an OD. First, set the server up as a standalone and make sure everything is working - particularly DNS. Then go to the Open Directory settings in SA and connect the server to another directory. It'll say right there what it does, which is use the other server for directory info, authentication, etc...You just won't have a replica of the OD master.

Is it possible to upgrade only apache in oracle 10g application server.

Hi All,
I have to upgrade only apache in oracle 10g application server with out upgrading oracle 10g as.
Is it possibel to upgrade only apache version in oracle 10g application server. if yes.could you suggest the steps that i need to follow.
This is very urgent.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sathya

If your trying to upgrade just apache in that oracle home, then no. If your trying to upgrade to a real apache version, from apache.org, mod_oc4j won't work. You need to use Oracle's version of Apache or HTTP Server.
Is there a reason you only want to upgrade Apache and not the whole oracle home?
There are ways to do it, but it wouldn't be supported by Oracle and I wouldn't recommend that either.

I am upgrading to Calendar Server 4.0 on NT with more than 9 nodes (or I already have) and my server won't start

I am upgrading to Calendar Server 4.0 on NT with more than 9 nodes
(or I already have) and my server won't start.

The steps are the same whether you have already upgraded or are about to.

Calendar Server 4.0 on the Windows NT platform can only support up to nine
nodes on one server, while 3.51 supported up to 14. If you have a Calendar
Server 3.51 with more than 9 nodes that you want to upgrade to Calendar Server
4.0, Netscape recommends that you migrate the extra nodes to another Calendar
Server 3.51 on another Windows NT system. To accomplish this:
<OL>
<LI>Install Calendar Server on another Windows NT machine and configure it to
use the same directory server as your current Calendar Server.
<LI>Stop and backup your current Calendar Server.
<LI>Individually zip up the node directories you want to move to the new
server. (drive:\unsers\unison\db\Nx
where "x" is the number of the node you want to use.)
<LI>Stop the new Calendar Server.
<LI>Unzip the files into the new Calendar Server in the same place as they
were on the old server.
<LI>Edit the unison.ini
file on the new server to add the nodes you have just migrated.
<LI>Edit the unison.ini
file on the old server to remove the nodes you have moved to the new server.
<LI>Edit the nodes.ini
file on the old server to remove the nodes you just moved and then add them
with the new hostname. Keep in mind that you will only be able to modify the
node network from the old host.
<LI>Run unidbfix -export
on both servers for all nodes.
<LI>Edit the remotenodes.ini
file on both servers to reflect your node topology.
<LI>Run unidbfix -import
to import the changes into the node databases.
<LI>Run unidbfix -c,
then -f,
then -c
again on both servers for all the nodes.
<LI>If you don't get any errors, run uninode -test all
to test if your nodes connections are set properly. If they are not, do not
start either of the servers; instead, fix the errors and try again.
<LI>Start both servers.
<LI>Log in and check to see if you can see people on remote nodes.
<LI>Notify the users on the moved nodes of their new calendar host.
<LI>If you did this in preparation of an upgrade, you can now run the upgrade to
4.0 since both servers contain fewer than 9 nodes.
</OL>

Use Disk Utility whihc is in the Utilities Folder.

Upgraded ZENworks Primary Server Will Not Refresh

Good Afternoon,
I recently upgraded our primary server from ZENworks 11.2-11.3a.
The upgrade procedure completed with no errors. However, the server will not refresh it's status in the ZENworks Control Center. Control Center continues to report the server as 11.2.0.0. The UI of the Control Center is upgraded. The agent continues to push back the next contact with server time without updating the last contact with server time
Things I have tried:
-doing a manual refresh through control center gives a "Connection Failed" error
-doing a manual refresh with zac ref completes successfully but does not update anything
-cleared the agent cache using zac cc
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you very much!

How do you upgrade OS X server 4.0 to another drive after installing on primary drive

I've upgraded OS X Server to version 4.0 after installing the Yosemite OS X. As usual, the server does not work properly after the upgrade. I've installed Yosemite on another boot drive to rebuild the system. I'm trying to upgrade the new install of Yosemite to the Server 4.0 version but when clicking the upgrade button, it just sits there with the wheel spinning. Has anyone seen this and how can I get the copy downloaded again to install version 4.0 of OS X Server?

I appreciate both of your prompt replies. According to the following support page (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107037), I only needed OS X 10.1 or later (more specifically, it says that 10.0.X or earlier cannot be upgraded without erasing). This page was directly referenced by this page (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301270) which is on the very post that Ferd referenced ("10.4 Tiger Upgrade: Decision tree+Checklist" at http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=121773). I can find nothing on official Apple websites that says anything about needing OS X 10.2 to upgrade to 10.4. The bottom line is that most of my harddrive is consumed with my music (approx 15 MB) and there is no convenient way for me to back it up or move it without buying an external hard drive. It just seems absurd to me that in order to use my new $300 iPod that I need to both invest $120 in new software and then another $100-200+ in an external hard drive so that said new software can be installed over my existing data. It's really bad enough that Apple gives you no charger and no case for the iPod, charges you for new software versions, and then makes their new software so incompatible that you have to erase your hard drive just to install it. Exactly why do people love their Macs over their PCs? If I have to buy an external hard drive, why shouldn't I simply take all my data off of my iBook and be done with Macs forever?

Calendar clients 4.03 cannot work offline since we have upgraded to Calendar Server 4.0

Macintosh Calendar 4.03 cannot work offline since I have upgraded to Calendar Server
version 4.0. When users attempt to either go offline or login offline,
they receive module errors:

Module:>CApplicationCorporateTime.cp>,
Label:20, Service error#(0x1320a)

It looks like versions 4.03 and lower clients (primarily on the Macintosh) are unable to
properly handle data from the 4.0 Server as it was able to in the 3.5 server.

There have been changes made with the new 4.0 server version as to how a
password is sent over the network to the client. In order for a customer to
use an old client version (pre 4.5) with the offline agenda, the following
parameter needs to be set in the server's /users/unison/misc/unison.ini file:

[ENG]
pwdreturnonitemget = TRUE

Once all users have been upgraded to client version 4.5x or higher, it is
highly recommended to remove this parameter or to set it to the
default value FALSE.
This parameter becomes active as new client sessions are established. It is
not necessary to stop and start the server.

The best solution for this issue is to only use Calendar client versions 4.5
or higher.

Upgrade from sql Server 9.0 to sql Server 12.0

I am currently running SQLEXPRESS (SQL Server 9.0) It appears that there is a limit to the size of the database which I have exceeded. I want to restore a backup of my customers DB and am not allowed to do so. Appears to be a size issue,
the customer DB is over 5 GB.
Will I eliminate this size restriction using sql Server 12.0?
I don't see any references to upgrading sql Server 9.0 to sql Server 12.0, only references to a new installation. Can it be upgraded and how do I do that?

Hello,
Please read the following article.

Error upgrading Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 to 2012: 0x80070490

Hi everyone!
As it is release day for Hyper-V Server 2012, I decided to go ahead and upgrade from Hyper-V Server 2008 R2. However, I keep getting this error:
"Windows Setup cannot find a location to store temporary installation files. To install Windows, make sure that a partition on your boot disk has at least 1198 megabytes (MB) of free space.
Error code 0x80070490"
I have over 20 gigs free on the boot volume, and tons more on my VHD volume, so I don't know why it's doing this. I have shut down all VMs, there are no snapshots, nothing cluttering up my C: drive, and yes I've rebooted it several times. I have
also tried copying the installation DVD to a local volume and installing that way, but I keep getting the same error. I know the quick solution would be to just format, reinstall clean, and pray that my VMs import into 2012 (which are already safely
on another volume), but there has to be a reason this is happening.
Any ideas? :) Thanks!

Hello Vincent,
I get the same error trying to upgrade my 2008R2 server to 2012. Here's my diskpart output for the partition (it's a mirrored partition):

How to upgrade the Admin Server to WLS 9.2.3 while Managed on 9.2.2

HI,
I have a WLS 9.2.2 domain with Admin and 2 Managed instances clustered. Admin and Managed Servers are on different machines.
I want to upgrade only the Admin Server to WLS 9.2 MP3 while all my Managed Servers are in WLS 9.2 MP2.
Can any one provide me the detailed steps on how to upgrade only the Admin server to WLS 9.2 MP3?
And I read in the Weblogic documentation that this supported. But could not find any detailed steps on how to upgrade only the Admin server to the Major version.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi
1. "And I read in the Weblogic documentation that this supported". Can you please provide the link or documenation that exactly says that this is Supported ???
2. As far as I know, one of the basic requirements for Weblogic Cluster with managed servers across different remote machines is, all the machines, Admin and Managed Servers machines should have Exact Same Version (including Service Pack) of WLS deployed. Right now I do not have this link on top of my head. But this is the only Supported and one basic requirement for Weblogic Cluster.
Since WLS uses all Shared Modules and each Shared module do have like Implementation and Specification Version. If you upgrade admin server domain, most probably config.xml file will be upgraded with all modules version as 10.0.2.3 (something like that). This means when you restart Managed Servers, they will get a new copy of config.xml file from admin server machine. So now on Managed Servers all these modules (10.0.2.3 etc) should exist on their local machines. This is just my thought.
Thanks

How to upgrade from Leopard Server 10.5.8 to Lion Server?

In anticipation of Lion, I finally retired my G5 2.7GHZ Mac Desktop running Mac OS X Server 10.5.8 and moved the start up drive to an 2 GHZ Intel Core 2 Duo MacMini.
It is running fine.
I would like to now upgrade to Lion Server, but without spending $499 for Snow Leopard Server. I do have a Evaluation Copy of Snow Lleopard Server 10.6. Can I use this as an intermediary transition to Lion?
Any other suggestions short of spending the $499?

There is no way at this time to go from 10.5 to 10.7 with out extra steps.
If this is a Mac Mini and Not a Mac Mini Server you can get the 29.99 Snow Lep client disk and install client on the mac mini then install lion and server on it making it a server and then bring your data back
If this is a Mac Mini Server you can install it from a Snow Lepored Client Via target disk mode. then you can erase the drive and install fallowing this apple support document.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4766
Now Migration will only mode your data and not update the OS, so migrating is not the solution for you. if you where to buy a new machine with Lion installed then migrating your data would he a help, but to update the OS you need to have 10.6.7 or higher
or a secound machine and be able to do the install over Target Disk mode.

BSOD after an in-place upgrade from Windows Server 2003 R2 to Window Server 2008

Xylems92 wrote:Unfortunately, we cannot take this approach.We have to move to 2008 (not R2) due to a software that runs on this machine and is validated will not run on 2008 R2 and above.

So i need this to work as an in place upgrade to 2008I feel your pain, but any company worth their salt will (meaning the vendor) should know that you cannot simply perform an in-place upgrade of a Server OS.
Really the proper method is to backup everything, format and install Server 2008 (are you limited to 32-bit?), restore data/reinstall software. What's the reasoning for the upgrade? 2003 EOL or something else?
Do you have a guarantee that the software will even work on...

Hello everyone.
We seem to be having an issue when doing an in place upgrade on our windows 2003 R2 server to go to Windows 2008. Every time we try and do the upgrade, once the server reboots it blue screens with no real information. Just mentioned to try and do a check disk to check for hard drive issues.
It gives us the option to go the earlier version of windows (back to 2003 R2) but nothing we have tried has succeeded so far.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Upgrade from Panther Server with Raid1

Trying to upgrade from Panther Server with software Raid1. Upgrade fails with "Could not prepare disk". I'm guessing it has to do with the RAID1? I need to upgrade and not do a clean install.
Could I upgrade to tiger server first?

Wow, Panther server. Ah the memories... Anyway, what you are running into is an issue with the actual Apple RAID software versions. If you run this command:
diskutil checkRaid
You should see in the result:
Apple RAID version: 1
That is your problem. Tiger and Leopard will only install on Apple RAID version 2 which was introduced in Tiger. But, all is not lost. Apple has provided a method to upgrade the RAID version without a break and a recreation. Again, using diskutil, run this command to see your options:
diskutil convertRaid
You will get:
Convert a 1.x RAID set (Mac OS 10.3 Panther or earlier) to a 2.x RAID set.
The filesystem must be mounted and resizeable (i.e. Journaled HFS+).
Ownership of the affected disk is required.
Example: diskutil convertRAID /Volumes/RAID
If the name of the volume is Data, then diskutil convertRaid /Volumes/Data should provide the fix you need.
Boot from your Leopard install media and then before attempting to install, open the Terminal and use the command above. Provided you formated as HFS+ journaled you will be fine.
*Make sure you have a backup!*
Oh, and if this fails, then run a diskutil list and hope that you did not install the OS 9 firewire drivers. If you did, then nuking and paving is likely your only option. In that case, I would suggest a clone, then a Raid break, then a creation of a new RAID set, then a restore, then an upgrade.
Again, make sure you back everything up. Be ready to revert back to your clone. Stop all services before upgrading. Export all users and groups. Just be safe. Panther to Leopard can be a tricky upgrade. If you are using MySQL, do a dump before attempting.
Hope this helps. Backup first. Backup many places.

Power On VM - Permissions Denied after upgrade to vCenter Server Appliance 6

After upgrading to vCenter Server 6 from 5.5 some of our users permissions seem to have changed. We have assigned permissions to groups of users at a folder level to manage and see only their VMs. This role allows them to perform common tasks.
After upgrading, when a user tries ot power on one of their VM's they receive the following error:
Name: Power On Virtual Machine
Status: Permission to perform this operation was denied. You do not hold privilege "System > Read" on host ""
We can resolve the issue by giving the users read only privaledges at the host level and not propogate but this is a lot of work in our environments to perform this on all hosts for our users. Has something changed in vsphere 6?

I have the same issue with Win vCenter 6.0.0 2656760.
With 5.5u2 roles work perfectry.
Role is assigned to a folder with VMs (not hosts or datacenter)

Upgrading from Tiger Server (10.4) to Lion?

I have an Apple Xserve (Dual 2.66 GHz Xeon proccessors, currently running Tiger Server, 10.4) I'm hoping to upgrade to Lion. The server is used at a non-profit community center so we've had to pass on the last few upgrades (Leopard, Snow Leopard) given the price tags (~$500), but since Lion server was announced at only $50, I've been thinking about trying to upgrade it. From what I've read, this $50 copy is good for a full, clean install, and not just an upgrade-only version. Is that true?
So here's the real question; Can I upgrade straight from server 10.4 to server 10.7?
According to the Step 1 here (http://www.apple.com/macosx/server/how-to-buy/), I first need to upgrade to the latest version of Snow Leopard, but no way will I pay $500 for it. What are my options?
What happens if I install a standard (non-server) version of Snow Leopard on the server, then try to upgrade from there? Will I lose all server functionality? My assumption would be that this would result in upgrading most of my non-server applications, while leaving me with the 10.4 versions of all the server/administrator applications. Is this at all correct? Or do I lose all server functionality by using a standard user disc?
Any responses would be greatly appreciated. We're looking at spending several thousand dollars on an entirely new server, but if we can salvage this one for $50, it would be a no-brainer. Thanks!

Hello, bambe009, and welcome to the forums,
Because it hasn't actually shipped yet any answers here are speculation and nothing is actually known for certain.
That being said it does appear that the only means of distribution will be via the App Store (with some 'sort of' exemptions for large institutional and educational buyers) so some form of Leopard appears it will be necessary.
It may be possible that your client Leopard to Lion Server may very well work (there's nothing to stop you from installing client Leopard on the Xserve) but the obvious downside of this is that you will need to recreate all your services and accounts etc from scratch in Lion. There is a upgrade/migration path for going from 10.4 to either 10.5 or 10.6 that updates your old services and accounts from one server set-up to the new one. I speculate that Lion will have a similar system to move from Snow Leopard Server to Lion Server and assuming it does you would lose this moving from the client version to server.
In addition it seems that the Lion Server "add-on" is essentially $50 upgrade to the product itself making the total cost more like $80 total, but still distinctly less than before.
Again - this is several layers of speculation about a product that does not exist yet so several large grains of salt should be taken with this.
