VMware and Siebel in Production – We have a first customer!

Hi All,
Wanted to pass this along since it may be a first. When we checked just over a year ago neither Siebel nor VMware could produce a single Siebel customer running VMware in production. We knew of a few VMware web servers in production and a few VMware Dev/Test installations but not any full VMware enterprises.
When this customer decided to go full VMware in production about a year ago as part of their Siebel 8.0 upgrade we were a little concerned since we knew they were going to be one of the very first.
I am happy to report that after two months of live production usage with 14 servers in the enterprise everything worked out very well! All 14 server are VMware and even Avaya CTI is VMware.
We know of one customer who recently decided against VMware in production since they were a little scared. I wanted to pass along the word that it worked great for our customer.
Did anyone else beat us to production with VMware? Just wondering if this is a first.
Take care,
R

  • I would like to know, does Apple Product Giveaways have a page for competitions on Facebook? A lot of People including myself have entered in these competitions and have won and iPhone and many other items. I am one of those people who won, it is true.

    Hi, My name is Sue Keeffe Ayton, I just want to know, does Apple Product Giveaways have a page on Facebook? They are running competition to win Apple Products. A lot of people seem to be winning Apple Products including myself. I saw that I have won a White Iphone 5s 32 GB, I would like to know if this is a scam. If someone goes on the facebook website and type in Apple Product Giveaways you will find this competition page. Please tell me if this page is for real.
    Please I need to know if this is for real.
    A lot of poeple including myself have entered these competitions and have won. I have tried to contact this page admin, but was unable to. I have even tried to contact Facebook team to find out, but was unsuccessful at this point in time.
    I am not sure if these people who are running these competitions are going to send these items out to the winners. I hope they do. If you enter a competition/s and you win, you would expect to receive your winning item/s.
    I never thought it was possible to win something on Facebook. When I saw my name pop up on the winners list in Apple Product Giveaways for March 2 2014 I was excited. I am one of 5 people who won an Apple product.
    Below you will see Apple Product Giveaway page on Facebook. On the right you will see the competition winners. I hope someone can help me find out the truth and if its fake, I will report this to Facebook to have this page shut down. A lot of people will be hurt, disappointed and very angry this has happened
    I hope you will show your support and help me solve this.
    If this is not the right site to report this or find out if this is a scam, please guide me to the correct area.
    Thank you for your attention.

    Apple does not give away its products.
    Unless you are the 1,000th person to show up at a new Store and Tim Cook is there and his assistant is filming you to be posted on their Home Page.
    That is yet another FaceBook SCAM.

    On opening google I get the message:"WARNING! Your Flash Player may be out of date. Please update to continue" - on clicking ok I am diverted to Flash Player Pro download site?? Is this a Adobe product? And why even though i have the latest flash player version I repeatedly get the message?

    This is not a message that Adobe is providing, and I recommend that you not click on the link. It sounds as though you might have malware on your computer.

  • HT1339 my older iPod my husband wants to use and his netbook does not have cd drive. How do I down load iPod and iTunes info for this product so he can now use it?

    my older iPod my husband wants to use and his netbook does not have cd drive. How do I down load iPod and iTunes info for this product so he can now use it?

    Your question(s) is/are a little hard to understand.  So your husband has an iPod as well as a netbook and he wants to be able to sync iPod with this netbook is that correct?  If so, he'll need to first download and install iTunes assuming the netbook is running some version of Windows such as 7, Vista, or XP.
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    As for importing or ripping music, he'll have to either use an external CD/DVD drive that is attached via USB or rip the songs to another PC you have with a built in CD/DVD drive.  Once you have imported them to the other computer, you can transfer the songs to an external hard drive or to his iTunes library via Home Sharing.
    If this isn't quite what you were looking for, please clarify.

  • Horrible product , I have everything mac and this is my biggest disappointment. I have taken it in 3 times since march and again 1 week ago and now voice over even though turned off will not stop talking I can't even listen to music !!

    i have reset everything and voice over still won't stop . Iv turned it off it has never been turned on .
    THis his by far is the worst apple
    product I own and I own over 7 different products Just me alone in my house there are numerous more .
    i now for the fourth time since March have to bring the product back to apple and have it looked at . That's hours at times that I spend there due to lines , as a full time worker and student I do not appreciate the hassle of continuously having to fix this product . Lat time I went in I asked the service representative to provide another product and I would pay the difference in fees. She just wrote a note saying " if I come back again to to give a brand new product , less then one week later I'm returning with my product and hope to get what I was promised .
    I Have never been so disappointed in an apple product and recommend no one ever buys it .  Invest in a different product .

    I have the same question what time did you chat ? Just because you were speaking with someone that is representing Verizon does not mean you were speaking to a "Customer Service" agent. Customer service is only open during specific hours. After those hours the only people online is the Online Sales Department. It is very possible you were chatting with the sales department.

  • I have purchased Creative Suite 6 and it keeps asking to sign in and put in product code. Says "trial period has ended."  I purchased the suite and have the disk.

    I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 6 (have the disk).  But now it keeps asking me to sign in and reenter my product code.  Says "Trial Period has ended."  There was no trial period.  I purchased the suite.  Very annoying to have to keep logging in.  How do I fix?

    Thank you Benjamin.
    I may reinstall.  It wont let me continue until I have entered the product code.  Says "trial period" has expired.
    Thanks again,
    Jim

  • How can i contact useless iTunes to get back previous purchases that they won 't give me back because somebody accessed my account and downloaded some product without my permission. I have sent severeal emails rung apple but nobody will return my emails.

    how can i contact itunes to get back my previous products i have purchased. I have emailed them several times but they won 't return my emails.

    iTunes support is online only. E-mail them again.  Realize they may not necessarily respond immediately.
    Of course if you had your purchases backed up on a hard drive you wouldn't need to contact them at all and they could be back on your computer in a matter of minutes.

  • I cannot retrieve the serial number of the product i have purchased and installed once on my PC

  • I have installed VMware Fusion but having trouble with Calyx Point software and was told Bootcamp needed to be installed.  Will I not have to uninstall Calyx, VMWare and Windows 7 prior to installing Bootcamp?

    I have just bought a new MacBook Pro and I really like it.  However, for my job I have to use Calyx Point software which has to be ran on the Windows side, so they sold me VMware Fusion software.  It works fine until I try to save a PDF or email docs.  I have called Calyx and they have advised me that bootcamp works.  I am wondering if this is going to help and since I have already installed VMware am I not going to have to uninstall that program, Windows and Point and then install bootcamp and reinstall Windows and Point?  If I'm beating my head against the wall, and just need to return the laptop, then that's what I will do, but I sure hate to as I really like my Mac.

    Checked VMware Fusion Community Forum?
    Most install Windows (natively) and then 'attach' the (Boot Camp) partition to Fusion.
    that way you can dual boot and run Windows natively when needed, and run Windows as a Guest OS VM under Mac OS.
    But.... and I don't know about Calyx, doing things like save pdf and email should work fine same as usual.
    Maybe there is something you didn't or need to do to Fusion (Tools or install Acrobat) or in configuring.
    I used Fusion but found I prefered running Windows natively at the time.
    If you do need to use one install in both manners, then you need to do through and partition your drive and reinstall Windows that way, and only then attach Fusion to it.
    If you need to run Windows for work, I'd exchange it - especially if you have only had it a couple days, and get another.  There are a lot of new laptops coming out in the next months that look nice, fast and won't have some of the issues you run into with Windows on a Mac.

  • ?"Please uninstall and reinstall the product."  This is the error messageI am getting.  I am afraid to uninstall from my old computer because I don't have the original paperwork.  Should I jot down some information before I uninstall my CS5?

    You'll need your serial number or proof of purchase. It's really no different than any other kind of software.
    If you need help with you serial number, contact web chat. Here's a link:

  • Hi. I just downloaded "angry birds" from the iTunes store. It says it was successfully downloaded and that I can use it on the two mac products I have. I can see an icon for it in the finder on the mac, but I can't figure out how to play the game. Anyone?

    Thank you for your reply. After a lot of fruitless searches, I hit on a page that offered the same wisdom you did. I feel like rather a fool for not knowing that. Grr. I really appreciate your answer, and that you didn't end it with "dummy." Cheers to you. Hope someone does something kind for you today.
