Windows 2008 R2 & Non R2 combined in Distributed install

Could anyone advise if I will have problems doing a SolMan 71 Distributed Install with the Instance on a WIndows 2008 server and SQL 2008R2 on a Windows 2008R2 server.
I see Server 2008R2 ia now supported but see nothing about mixing them on the PAM.

Hi Bill,
I don't see anyone with this setting. Logically, it should works as homogenous system installation, basically DB host needed access to access /sapmnt on CI host.
Cheers,

Migration of a Windows 2008 Domain to 2012 with SCCM 2012 installed

Hey there,
i have been requested to migrate two 2008 Domains to 2012 with a possible merge.
Done this many times, but in this case i have a SCCM 2012 installed in the Environment.
SCCM is not covered by me, but i would like to have some aditional Background on this...
Are there any Special Points to give Attention to?
Any Hints or Ideas on this?
Best regards
Chris
btw: i still found, that i am not "allowed" to migrate the sccm itself, but Need to reinstall it...

Lets say you have two domains - Domain 1 and Domain 2. Both have W2008 DCs. SCCM 2012 has been deployed to Domain 1.
You could just upgrade to W2012 DCs in Domain 1, then migrate Domain 2 resources to Domain 1.In this way SCCM is unaffected.

Windows 2008 R2 backup fails with event 521 error code 2155348001

Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. Hyper-V role installed.
OS on drive C. All VMs stored on Drive D.
I am attempting to run a Bare Metal backup of the host system to a network share.
Drive D is not included in the backup job. I am getting the following error:
Log Name:      Application
Source:        Microsoft-Windows-Backup
Date:          1/10/2014 11:28:52 PM

Description:
The backup operation that started at '‎2014‎-‎01‎-‎11T04:08:50.683000000Z' has failed because the Volume Shadow Copy Service operation to create a shadow copy of the volumes being backed up failed with following error code '2155348001'. Please review the event
details for a solution, and then rerun the backup operation once the issue is resolved.
Reviewing event details, as suggested, does not offer any solution.
I have tried the suggested solutions in other similar threads of increasing the timeout value with the registry entry.
This does not work.
I have not tried reregistering the VSS writers manually, as the only links I have found are for server 2003/2008 (not R2) and explicitly state that they won’t work on higher versions of the OS, since they now utilize manifests and the manual procedure could
cause problems for those servers. Haven't found similar procedures for 2008 R2.
I have been able to narrow this down a bit.
A Windows 2008 R2 SP1 server with Hyper-V installed – backup to a network share is successful;
Install the DPM 2012 agent – same backup fails with the 2155348001 error.
We use DPM 2012 to backup VMs, but DPM cannot perform a bare metal backup/restore of server and the 2012 version no longer has the DPMSRT feature.
I prefer to run Bare Metal Backup to a file server share.
Stuck on this one.

In the first place a 'blue screen' has to be analyzed on the OS side, Oracle COULD be the reason, but who knows? More likely a hardware problem (RAM,disk storage). So you have to ask your system administrator and/or call Microsoft support. Or you try to find an answer in one of the many articles in the web, for example this:

How to set up fax solution using Windows 2008 R2 Fax server role and Exchange 2007

Hello,
I don't know if this is the right forum to post this but since it is related to Exchange I thought it might be. If this is not the right place, please direct me to the forum where my post would be more appropriate.
I'm looking to set up a Fax solution for the company that I work for as we are moving away from analog phone lines to VoIP using SIP. My original thought was to set up a Windows 2008 R2 server with Fax server role installed and have it route the fax message
to Exchange 2007 SP3 so the fax message can be delivered to each user's inbox. I was reading a little bit on the Windows Fax server role and from what I saw it looks like it can only route fax messages to one email address. This not ideal for my company. Is
there a way to have the fax server role route the email to each user's inbox? If so, how can I achieve this?
How can implement this for this sending outgoing faxes as well?
I don't know if this releveant or not but I will be using Asterisk as a media gateway between our SIP trunks and the Windows Fax server.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Moving SAP Content Server/MaxDB 7.6 to a Windows 2008 R2 Server

Hi All.
We are in the process of upgrading our server where the SAP content server is located. We are going from SAP CS 6.30/MaxDB 7.6 to a Windows 2008 R2 server where we want to install SAP CS 6.40/MaxDB 7.8. I have been following the latest manual from SAP for upgrading to MaxDb 7.8 (2010-10-05) from MaxDb 7.6 using the in-place method.
To date we have installed MaxDB 7.6 on the server. We restored our latest backup and performed the index checks as spelled out in the manual. I have the database in ADMIN mode and went to run the MaxDb 7.8 install for the 64 bit window version. THe install GUI comes up, but the Update selection is grayed out. This tells me that the install program can not detect our existing database. I did make sure I was running the install as Admim so I do not think that is the issue.
This is the second time I have tried this upgrade. The first time I did a comand line upgrade by runing the .bat file DBUPDATE.bat. We have a 110 Gbyte database and this upgrade ran in about 15 minutes, and of course when I went to openthe database it was toast. Do not want to make the same mistake again.
One other point, since we did a restore of the database, then the index check, we did not run a backup as the manual suggested as we felt it was not necessary. Does the system require a backup before upgrade and that is why it does not see the database?
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

I beleive we have resolved the issue with upgrading the database, but now we are having a problem with Datbase Studio 7.8. Before the upgrade we used Data Manager 7.6. After the upgrade we installed Database Studio 7.8 and when we go to start it up, we are getting the Problems opening perspective 'com.sap.sdb.tools.ut.perspectives.mainPerspective'. I followed the instruction in another post Problems opening perspective in Database Studio, but we still are getting the error.
Can anybody offer any assistance as we are getting close to the weekend when we want to do the cutover and we are not even done with our first pass at upgrading the SAP content server.
Thanks
John

Error Intall RWD Uperform 4.3 on Windows 2008 with Oracle 11G

Hi,
I need install RWD Uperform 4.3 on Windows 2008 with Oracle 11G.
When tried install Uperform 4.3 occurs the next error:
Product: RWD uPerform Server -- This Release requires Oracle 11.2 R2 ODP Client to be Installed.
If you are not using Oracle, please use the regular 4.30.0 release.
If you are using Oracle, please install ODP.NET and then re-run the Setup. Setup will be aborted now.
I installed the ODP.NET whit the version 11.2.0.2.
But the errors still occur.
Thanks.
Marco Kolombesky

In the end I solved my problem.
But I installed RWD uperform 4.4 (not 4.3).
But I think that the problem was that when I installed uperform 4.3 I didn't run this command at DB level on my SQL Server datadabe:
ALTER DATABASE AdventureWorks2008R2
SET READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT ON;
GO

MDM 7.1 Installation on a Windows 2008 Cluster

Hello everyone,
We have a two node x64 Windows 2008 Server cluster.
We have just installed MDM 7.1 (MDS & MDIS) onto the Microsoft Failover Cluster which already has an ABAP system and a JAVA system installed. Each of these systems has it's own Cluster Service/Application as required, with shared storage (saploc & sapmnt share for each install).
The only way I can get the MDM services to start (SAPMDQ_04 & SAPMDQ_05) is if the local saploc share is removed from each node (c:\sap\usr).
The following entry exists in the Windows Event log when the MDS or MDIS service tries to start
Unable to change to Directory C:\usr\sap\MDQ\MDS04\work. (Error 3 ESRCH*: No such process OR: The system cannot find the path specified.) [ntservstart.cpp 1053]
This path is not valid which is why the service doesn't start but I cannot work out why it is defaulting to looking at the saploc share on c:\usr\sap. MDS and MDIS are installed on the shared cluster disk which is v:\usr\sap so why does it not pick up this share i.e.
SRMQAMDMCI\saploc. (SRMQAMDMCI is the name of the Client Access Point for the MDM cluster service)
-> I can browse to this share perfectly fine
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I was just wondering if you found a solution to this problem.
I am currently installing a multi-sid installation on 2008 and getting the same problem.
The first <SID> was fine, but now when I try to install the the second <SID> I am getting the same problem with the saploc when installing the SCS.
The install recognizes the the Virtual saploc, but when the service starts it tries to use the physical saploc.

Does GRC 5.3 support Windows 2008?

Dear Experts:
We currently have GRC 5.3 running on Windows 2003 Servers (64bit). They are running fine without any issues. But we are in the process upgrading the servers from Windows 2003 to 2008. I tried to find out if Windows 2008 is supported in GRC 5.3, but in the SAP market place product availability matrix (PAM), only show what browser it will support. No indication for Windows server side. From the installation guide of GRC 5.3, it only listed WIndows 2003, NO 2008 mentioned.
Where I can find the right information on if GRC 5.3 can run on Windows 2008 or not? Are any of you upgraded from 2003 to 2008 for GRC server? Any issues need be aware of?
Thanks,
Yujun Ran

Hi Yujun,
Since GRC relies on the underlying NetWeaver OS PAM, you can install on Windows 2008 Server, if you are successful in installing your Netweaver 7.0. My recommendation would be to look at the compability of database and other supported add-ons too before you actually go with Windows 2008.

Wyse Thin client not connecting to Windows 2008 R2 server

Configuration
SBS 2011 Server
Windows 2008 R2 server with Remote Desktop Services installed, License Manager installed.
WYSE WT3125SE thin clients with Windows CE 5
I setup the Windows 2008 with Remote Desktop Services and was able to successfully connect the Thin client. Then I installed the License Manger and applied my Open license using User Cals. Was able to login. Next day I get the following
error-"Because of a security error, the client could not connect to the remote computer. Verify that you are logged onto the network and then try connecting again" I still can connect fine from other machines even Windows Home Ed.
I remove license server and still was unable to connect. Built a second Windows 2008 R2 server with RDS on it. Was able to connect without issue. Pointed it to the first RDS server license manager and have still been able to connect with
the Thin Client. The thin client can rdp to the SBS server without issue in admin mode, can connect to RDS2 server but not RDS1 with the license manger. So my issue is with the license and so my question is what is it with the license server
running on that server that is keeping thin client from connecting. I even did a reload of RDS1 and tested connecting throughout the process and it worked up until I applied the license and then it stops. And then if I uninstall the license, rds, remove
from domain still not able to connect. Any help would be appreciated.

We had the same problem with older terminals after cloning a 2008R2 rds server and sysprep it.
The original rds server worked fine but when the old terminals connect to the new 1 they come up with the error : Because
of a security error, the client could not connect to the remote computer. Verify that you are logged onto the network and then try connecting again"
After reading all of the postings about this issue and tried the reactivate solution of the license server,
I was sure that it had something to do with the x509 certificates that are generated the first time you connect to a valid license server.
What I did, I installed a new license server activate it but did not install licenses on it.
I pointed the defective rds server to the newly installed license server and deleted the following registry keys:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\RCM
Certificate
X509 Certificate
X509 Certificate ID
X509 Certificate2
Then reboot.
After the reboot all old terminals can connect fine again. As final step I pointed the rds server to the same license server as the other ones,
reboot and all worked fine.
So conclusion is that when you pont a rds server to a license server that has the new type of licenses on it it will generate the wrong x509 certificates
that are not supported by the older clients, by pointing it first to 1 without any rds calls on it, it generates the older x509 certificates which are compatible with the older rdp clients then the switch to new license server will then not regenerate the
x509 certs so it keeps working.
I hope this helps someone
This issue was driving me crazy so very happy that it is resolved now
Cheers Frits

Issues installing 10g ODAC on Windows 2008 with Oracle 10g Express

I am new to Oracle and am having an issue installing Oracle Data Access Components on Oracle 10g 64bit running on Windows 2008 64bit.
I need the ODAC installed to enable integration with SSIS.
The issue I have if i install using ODAC10203x64 the setup file fails with a javaw error and the ntdll.dll.
I then downloaded the ODAC1110720 which states it backwards compatible. It installs just fine, but now i am not sure as to how to configure it correctly as the Configuration util that loads in ODAC10203x64 does not run.
The ODBC drivers are not visible under the ODBC connection manager although this may be an issue of just opening the 32Bit version.
Any help would be appreciated

Hi Ibrahim,
You should decide what you require.
32bit version can be installed on 64bit server and this should work fine (check the certification matrix for this).
The "problem" is that you would not gain any performance benefit from the 64bit server
If you want to have benefit you can upgrade the JVM to 64 bit version.
I did this 3 years ago and I do not remember exact steps though everything worked OK.
WARNING:
this can be unsupported, ask support to be sure
- Install the 32 bit version on the server
- Download 64 bit Java JRE/JDK and install it (well, you can search the same release as included in the AppServer or try newer one, 7 for example)
- later, reconfigure the appserver so it uses the version you've installed, OR Copy the everything from c:\progfiles\java\... to the directory OraHome\... (forgot exact directories)
try to search the forum, there had been a thread with the same question
regards, michael
