What Happens to AWS AMI's When Your CAL Subscription Expires

Hi,
I just tried out the Free Trial for enterprise foundation extensions on HANA and experimented with managing my instances directly from my AWS Console. I noticed that when I created two AMI (ERP HANA and BI) directly in the AWS Console and subsequently tried to launch new Instances from that AMI my dispatcher fails. (I shut down the Hana DB manually before taking the snapshot and started both the DB and SAP Services manually on startup)
However doing exactly the CAL version of this process (Create Solution off a suspended instance) from CAL management console and launch new instance with this "My CAL solution" works fine.. Apart from the subsequent licensing error when trying when trying to log in to this new instance mased on "My CAL solution". So my assumption is that this is all happening because these are special trial licenses.
This got me wondering;
1.  Let's say I have a CAL subscription and valid development/partner licenses for my Installation, would I have the same experience as I described above?
2.  After building a solution and creating an AMI on AWS, if my cloud subscription expires or I chose for what ever reason not to renew, will this AMI that was created through create a solution option in CAL and stored as an AWS AMI be still valid.
3. Following from 2, will I be able to subsequently launch it in AWS in a new VPC and not the CAL VPC without any issues?
Would really appreciate if anyone can share some insight on this..
Regards
Ruke

Hello Ruke,
Creating AMIs and launching instances directly from the AWS Console violates the Terms and Conditions of the corresponding free trial or SAP CAL subscription.

    If I merge libraries and then back the merged libraries up onto an external drive or DVD, do I just back up the libraries themselves, or do I also back up the original files?
    If you're running a Managed Library, then backing up the Library also backs up the original files.
    I ask because my HDD is getting pretty full. I want to reduce the amount of stuff on it, and the iPhoto libraries are the biggest single consumer of space at the moment (Nearly 100GB).
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Regards
    TD
    P.s. If you're running a Managed library, then it's the default setting, and iPhoto copies files into the iPhoto Library when Importing
    If you're running a Referenced Library, then you made a change at iPhoto -> Preferences -> Advanced and iPhoto is NOT copying the files into the iPhoto Library when importing.

  • I wish to recycle a number of macs.  What happens to the hard drive when sent to Simms?  Do I need to dismount them?

    I wish to recycle a number of macs.  What happens to the hard drive when sent to Simms?  Do I need to dismount them?

    Hard drives don't die then come back to life. Your drive never died. You just thought it did.
    Obviously, if a hard drive isn't on and spinning its life is longer than when it is always on and spinning. If a hard drive in a laptop is idle it goes to sleep. That's normal because it prolongs battery life. Of course it hardly matters if the computer is running on AC power. The drive may still go to sleep but there's no impact on the battery.
    If the computer is in use 24/7 then its useful life will be less than if it's in use only 12/7 or 8/7. This is both logical and obvious. But in the long run all computers or their hard drives fail. There is little you can do to prevent that. They are meant to be used. If your life is dependent on the computer being usable, then buy another one as a spare. Or at the very least buy a backup drive, keep the computer backed up, then you can worry less about drive failure.

  • What happens to iweb-built site when I upgrade from Leopard (10.5.8) to Snow Leopard (10.6.3), and subsequently upgrade to 10.6.8 or even 10.7? Will fonts stay the same? Will layout change? Or anything else change? Thanks

    What happens to iweb-build site when I upgrade from Leopard (10.5.8) to Snow Leopard (10.6.3) and subsequently update that to 10.6.8 or even to 10.7? Evidently iweb has been discontinued. I have version 3.0.3 of iweb now but understand that there's been an update for OS 10.6 so same question goes for this update.
    Will fonts change? Will layout change? Will widgets still work? Links? Will Google Analytics PlugIn still work?
    (Since MobileMe is disappearing, I now save iweb site to local folder on my computer, then upload it to GoDaddy using Cyberduck. I run Google Analytics plug in on folder before its uploaded.)
    My computer, MacBook Pro came with iweb, which has been updated to 3.0.3. Since iweb is discontinued, will upgrade of operating system just ignore iweb so that iweb will run the same as before? Or will it wipe it out? Or change how it currently works (questions above).
    Thanks

    As you now know iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two features will be broken.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: iW14 - Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    NOTE: the iLife 11 boxed version Is no longer available at the online Apple Store.  To get a copy you'll have to try Amazon.com or eBay.com.

  • What happens to connection to oracle when process exit

    Hi,
    What happens to open oracle connections when a process exit without closing them ?

    The process monitor (PMON) performs process recovery when a user process fails. PMON is responsible for cleaning up the database buffer cache and freeing resources that the user process was using. For example, it resets the status of the active transaction table, releases locks, and removes the process ID from the list of active processes.
    PMON periodically checks the status of dispatcher and server processes, and restarts any that have stopped running (but not any that Oracle has terminated intentionally). PMON also registers information about the instance and dispatcher processes with the network listener.
    Like SMON, PMON checks regularly to see whether it is needed and can be called if another process detects the need for it.

  • What happens on iCloud (ex. contacts) when multiple family members use the same Apple ID?

    What happens on iCloud when multiple family members use the same Apple ID?  For example if we all choose to use iCloud for contacts, are they all merged together?  We use the same Apple ID so we can use find my iPhone to keep track of the whole family.

    Of course if you are both connected to the same iCloud account you have the same contacts - what did you expect?. The contacts live on the server and are read from there by the devices; so as you've both managed to sync your contacts up to iCloud they are now inextricably mixed. You can only delete your contacts by deleting individual ones, and doing that will delete them from your phone as well.
    You can only unravel this by
    1. In the iCloud contacts page at http://icloud.com, select all the contacts, click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose 'Export vCard'.
    2. Sign out of System Preferences>iCloud
    3. Create a new Apple ID and open a new iCloud account with it for your own use.
    4. Import the vCard back into the iCloud contacts page.
    5. Go to http://icloud.com and sign in with the original ID. This is now his ID. Work through the contacts individually deleting the ones you don't want him to have. When done sign out and advise him to change his password.
    6. Go to the new iCloud account and delete his contacts individually.
    Of course if you have also been syncing calendars and using the same email address there are problems with doing this.

  • What happens to shared folders/mail when I disable/remove a mailbox in Exch2010 and which is better to get space back?

    We have a number of old mailboxes taking up room.  The users are long gone and I looked into removing them.  The clients of these users have been moved to others.  The users had shared folders that held this info.  I have a few questions
    about the removal.
    1. Is there a difference in time before space is given back if I disable versus remove the user in EMC?
    2. If an ex-employee had folders that others are sharing, what happens when I do the remove/disable?  Will the folders still be out there on the people who had it shared or will it vanish from them too?
    Thanks for your help.

    "Best practice" is going to be defined by each company.  I worked for Microsoft for 13.5 years, assisting over 100 large companies deploy either Windows or Exchange, and none had the same definition for their "best practice". 
    If you need access to a mailbox for a time period, you figure out a way to keep it.  If you want any terminated employee's mailbox gone tomorrow, it is gone tomorrow.
    I am a fan of having some sort of process that runs periodically to clear out unnecessary mailboxes and accounts, but if there are business reasons for keeping them around, that needs to be defined into the process.  In my current company, terminated
    accounts are kept for 30 days, mailbox included.  We give mailbox access to a different employee if required and tell them that if they need anything, they need to pull it into their own mailbox.  Then, when the account disappears, the mailbox goes
    into the dumpster.  So, if someone forgot to pull a message, they tell their boss and live with the consequences.
    But again, that's just another example of how it might be handled.  You get to define what will work for you, including pulling your business units in to help with the definition.

    Nothing happens to the music on your computer. Nothing will "combine" unless this other person actually downloads something to your computer. Simply logging into an iTunes account does not instigate any automatic downloads of anything.

  • What happens if i purchase apps when home page limit is exceeded already

    New to iPhone. I know iPhone 5 has the limit of 11 pages of home screen, and I wonder what happens if I accidentally continue to buy apps when it's already over the limit. Will it warn me or it will start removing apps to make room for new ones?

    The apps will still download to your phone, they just won't be on your home screen. You can still access the apps by searching for their names. To do a search, from your home screen, swipe from left to right until you see the search screen.
    Why don't you group apps into folders to make room for more?

  • What happens to my MobileMe Gallery when I switch to iCloud?

    I have about 20 picture folders in my MobileMe Gallery.
    1.  What happens to those pictures when I switch to iCloud? Do I need to manually download each folder and then reload them to iCloud?
    2. Gallery had a nice option of making some folders public and others private - does anyone know if this option exists in the iCloud photostream?
    3. I currently have a PC (ugh! - saving to get a MAC) running Windows XP Pro - am I correct that Photostream will not work with my PC?
    Many thanks for any help!!

    If you have an iPhone 4 or 4s, an iPad 2 or newer you could download iPhoto for iOS; import your albums onto the devices and use the Journal function to create a journal and post it to iCloud for friends to see. It even allows you to announce to your friends and family the new post.  The images look as if they are posted on a bulletin board. After selecting an image, the view can manually view the next image by pressing the next button or view all of them in a slideshow.  

  • What happens to the closed captions when you delete a video or audio from a slide? (Captivate 7)

    This might be a silly question but ...
    I have a presentation with audio voiceover on every slide and videos on some. I have entered closed captioning for all of them. This is a pretty time consuming job.
    What happens if I run into a problem with a video or audio clip and need to replace it? If I delete that audio or video from the slide, what happens to all the closed captioning that you added to it? I'm assuming it's deleted when you delete it from the slide.
    If I export the captions before deleting the audio/video file, can I then reimport them when I replace the audio/video file with a fixed version?
    Thanks for any clarification.

    Hi there,
    You can have CC with Slide audio and Multi Slide video in Captivate.
    If you will delete the slide audio or Multi slide Video, then CC will get disabled on that slide, but same CC text will retain there as Slide notes.
    Now, once you will re insert the audio or multi slide video you can mark that slide notes as CC again, or can have new CC.
    So, even after deleting the audio and multi slide video, CC will not be deleted.
    check following section in Captivate:
    Thanks.
