VMware and Windows Server Storage Space

We know Windows Storage Server could be storage of VMware.
Could VMware also adopt Storage Space feature when using Windows Storage Server?

Hi,
I'm a little unclear about the question.
Do you mean you are going to install a VM in VMware as Windows Storage Server and setup Storage Space on it?
I cannot confirm if there is any specific limitation of VMware but personally I think it will work. In Hyper-V it is supported.

Windows Server Essentials Storage Service and Windows Server Essentials Email Service eating memory

Hi
I have Windows Server 2012 R2 with Essentials Role installed. I have integrated server with Azure AD, Office 365 and Intune using the Essentials Dashboard integration tools.
I can see that Windows Server Essentials Storage Service and Windows Server Essentials Email Service are eating much of server memory. What are these services for and why they use a lot of memory? Specially I am wondering about the Email Service. What is
it for? Server dont handle email in any way so what is this service for? I tried to google it but found nothing.

Hi
I have 6GB of memory.
When I check from Resource Monitor, for Essentials Storage Service, Commit Set is 4G and Working Set is 1,8G.
Email Service Commit is about 1,8G and Working Set is just below 1G.
So these two services are reserving almost all the memory.
Memory is about 85-90% in use all the time, whether it be night or day.
Server have about 12 users and at the office there is about 2-6 person at the time. Link between server and office is 100M. There are no other services installed but the basic ones. We use server for AD (O365 integration) and file shares. Traffic in File
Shares are not big. They are more kind of an warehouse that in busy day-to-day use.
This server is about couple of months old and it has been like this since it was fired up.
I dont know what to look for from Event Logs and Process Monitor dont give me anything useful.

Which VMware support Windows 7 as Host and Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS

Folks,
Hello. I need to install PeopleSoft PIA in Windows Server 2003.
Because my laptop is preinstalled Windows 7 Home Premium Editon and cannot dual boot multiple Operating systems. I have to install VMware in Host Windows 7 and then install Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS for PIA.
I have installed VMware Server 2.0.2 into Host Windows 7 and Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS. Everything works fine for a while. But VMware Server Home Page https://mylaptop:8333/ui cannot display any more.
I have found that Windows 7 is not a supported Host Operating System for VMware Server 2 and strange thing might happen anytime. I found that "VMware Player 3" is fully supported Windows 7 as Host OS but is not supported Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS.
Does any folks know which VMware product support Windows 7 as Host OS and Windows Server 2003 as Guest OS ?
Many thanks in advance.

Hi,
Based on my research, I would like to suggest the following:
1.
Ensure the printer is compatible with Windows 7 and Windows Server 2003 and the drivers are up-to-date.
2.
Try the following method:
Printers that use ports that do not begin with COM, LPT,
or USB are not redirected in a remote desktop or a terminal services session
Hope this helps. Thanks.

Nicholas Li - MSFT
That doesn't apply to Windows 7 Machines. I'm having the same problem as Acer_, I have a RDP Session from a Windows 7 Machine to a Windows XP machine and the local printer was available a few days ago but isn't anymore. The drivers are installed on both PC's
and are compatible with Windows 7.

Can I use Azure Backup and Windows Server Backup in a Windows Server ?

Can I use Azure Backup and Windows Server Backup in a Windows Server ?
I want to use both Azure Backup and Windows Server Backup for two senarios.
For Disaster Recovery = Azure Backup to Azure Storage.
For non-Disacter Recovery = Windows Server Backup to a on-premises disk.
The non-Disaster Recovery mean a file or folder recovery, disk crash recovery, migrate to another servers.
The non-Disaster Recovery need the speed of recovery just like 10 TB recovery as soon as possible.
If I can use both Azure Backup and Windows Server Backup in a Windows Server,
Are there any notes for using both ?
Regards,
Yoshihiro Kawabata

Hi Yoshihiro Kawabata,
Thanks for posting here!
Azure Backup to Azure Storage and Windows Server Backup to a on-premises disk. These are two different question and can be answered individually.
Azure Backup to Azure Storage - Possible.
Windows Server Backup to a on-premises disk - Possible.
Can I use Azure Backup and Windows Server Backup in a Windows Server? Is a question.
I will check on this and get back to you at the earliest.
Thanks!

Just FYI, Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows Server 2012 BranchCache Deployment Guide in Word format in the TechNet Gallery

The Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows Server 2012 BranchCache Deployment Guide is now available for download in Word format in the TechNet Gallery at

hello again,
meanwhile I was lucky to find this article about Idenity Mapping in TechNet in the Storage Team Blog:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/filecab/archive/2012/10/09/nfs-identity-mapping-in-windows-server-2012.aspx
Likely to be overseen at the end of one paragraph it says:
"Client for NFS does not support NFS V4.1 in Windows 8 or Windows Server 2012"
Question : Is this an official statement and is it still valid with most recent
Windows Server 2012 R2 that NFS client does NOT support NFSv4.x ??
thanks - Rainer

BDB support for Windows Vista, WIndows 7 and Windows Server?

Hello,
I examine to use BDB on Windows, and I have a question.
There's a description about supported OSs on the BDB reference guide as follows;
Where does Berkeley DB run?
The Berkeley DB distribution includes support for Windows/95, Windows/98, Windows/NT, Windows/2000 and Windows/XP, via the Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 and .NET development environments.
Does BDB distribution supports for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2003?
And it will support Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7?
I believe that BDB does not depend on specific function of Windows, thus there's no problem to support them...
Regards,
Akira

Yes, we have a plan about BDB support for Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows Server. Once we are ready, we'll let you know here.
Hi Vit,
For Berkeley DB XML questions, please go to the Berkeley DB XML forum at: Berkeley DB XML
By the way, I learnt there's a XP-compatible mode in Windows 7. You may want to try DB-XML with that.

Lms 3.2 and window server 2008 r2 standard

we have bought lms 3.2 and window server 2008 r2 standard. Now we know, it cant be used togetther
Could we upgrade to lms 4.0.1 ? If so, how can we do ?
thank you.
Duyen.

Correct, LMS 3.2 is not supported on Windows 2008 R2. You can upgrade to LMS 4.0 (which is supported on R2), but that is not a free upgrade from LMS 3.x. You can, however, download a free 90-day eval of LMS 4.0 from http://www.cisco.com/go/nmsevals .
It sounds like you need to contact your reseller or account manager to see what they can do. If you just purchased LMS 3.2, you may be able to get a free or discounted upgrade to 4.0.

Hi,
This error means that your DC does not support the encryption method the ACS wants to use.
Usually this happens when you run 2008 Server with 2003 functionality...
You will need to run ktpass.exe according to the DC you are running:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/nac/appliance/configuration_guide/48/cas/s_adsso.html#wp1277452.
For Windows 2008 Server at 2003 Server functional level:
ktpass -princ newadsso/[adserver.][email protected] -mapuser newadsso -pass
PasswordText -out c:\newadsso.keytab -ptype KRB5_NT_PRINCIPAL

I'm having probs backing up iPhone 5 to iCloud - just sits on the backing up screen with message 'estimated time remaining....' But goes no further and doesn't back up - wifi is fine and definitely enough storage spaces. Anyone have any ideas plea

I'm having probs backing up iPhone 5 to iCloud - just sits on the backing up screen with message 'estimated time remaining....' But goes no further and doesn't back up - wifi is fine and definitely enough storage spaces. Anyone have any ideas please?

You might try a forced shutdown to begin with, hold down the top and home buttons together until the device shuts down, then restart it.
First check that your device is correctly connected to the wifi/internet (settings > wifi)
If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
If this doesn't help, try turning off some items for back up in a pattern to try to establish if your problem is being caused by specific data on your device.
Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

Is there a 32 Bit edition available for windows server 2012 and windows server 2008

Dear All,
Is there a 32 Bit edition available for windows server 2012 and windows server 2008?

Hi,

All editions of Windows Server 2008 R2 are 64-bit only.
Reference link below(session Supported upgrade paths):

And based on MS official description about system requirement for Windows Server 2012/2012 R2, we may find out that they only has 64 bit OS.

Compatibility forms 6i and Windows Server 2008

Hi,
We want to change our Server from 2003 to Windows Server 2008 64bits.
My question is : is there a compatibility between Oracle forms 6i (our application) and Windows Server 2008 ?
Will the migration be successfull, or will we have some bugs?
Thks for your help.
O.

YES. It worked perfectly for me, you'll have to use oracle 8/8i lite though.

Windows server 2012 as primary DC and DNS server and windows server 2003 as secondary DC and DNS

Migration from windows server 2003 AD DC and DNS server to windows server 2012 R2,
Cannot I set up Windows server 2012 R2 as primary DC and DNS , windows server 2003 as secondary DC and DNS ? (for backup server when server 2012 fail, user can continue to login and access internet services)

You can mix both as long as your Forest and Domain Functional level are Windows Server 2003. However, I would like to bring your attention to this blog about known problems when mixing DCs with Windows Server 2003 and 2012 R2 OS:

T-500 and Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM

My setup:
T-500 dual booting via VHD - Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 (both 64-bit).
My problem:
I'm having a devil of a time with this one. I get random BSOD'd in my Server 2008 R2 installation, but my Win7 install is rock solid. Sometimes it's right away, sometimes after a few minutes, sometimes when trying to use WordPad. I cannot get my wireless card (Intel 5100 AGN) to work along with video drivers for my ATI card, so I'm leaning towards a driver issue. I'm trying to use the Win7 drivers for anything that's missing drivers at the moment, since they are the same under the hood, so to speak.
Has anyone else experimented with this setup and/or run into similar problems? Thanks!
T500: T9400 (2.53GHz), 4GB RAM, 160GB 7200rpm, 15.4in 1680x1050 WSXGA+ LCD, 256MB ATI Radeon HD3650, DVDRW, Intel 802.11agn wireless, AT&T WWAN, Bluetooth, Modem, 1Gb Ethernet, 9c Li-Ion, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 RC (Build 7100)

You shouldn't have any big issues, but there are a couple of gotchas that Server versions of Windows have (a notable one is the Bluetooth stack). Those are somewhat detailed in the review, though (and that blog also details how to get other features of Server 2008 R2 running).

Kerne_task and window server uses high CPU percentage

I have a white macbook unibody mid-2010, and the aactivity monitor shows kernel_task and window server using CPU of around 20% at times. Why is it doing this and how can I stop it from using so much? Thanks for any help

I was experiencing something similar, but with windowserver running at over 80% mostly, spiking to 99%. MacBookPro hardly responded anymore.
I investigated windowserver and learned it was "coordinating and handling the display for applications that want to place something on the display" (sure this is technically incorrect; trying to explain in plain English). So there was a good chance it was not windowserver itself, but a calling application being the root cause.
Using Activity Monitor (in Applications - Utilities folder) I listed all active processes and preselected the ones I recognized, and anticipated they would be using graphics more than average. I then started killing them one after the other.
After I killed "BetterTouchTool 0.721", my windowserver went back to normal behavior, and the machine was fast again.
Three last points:
1) BetterTouchTool web-site does NOT say it fully supports Lion yet. I could have checked that so not blaming anyone here but myself.
2) I'm using dual display and I see some references online to BetterTouchTool having some issues with that on Lion still.
3) In your case, any other process can be causing the same symptoms; it does not have to be "BetterTouchTool". Do the trouble-shooting by killing process one after the other and it should quickly tell you which process is the culprit.
Hope this helps,
Ronald
