Windows 2012 Standard File Server Clustering SMB Share Error: Access is denied.

Hi All,
My setup consist of 2 nodes clustered with File Server role. I can successfully failover role to either node with no issues. But if I try to modify the permissions of any file share on my file server cluster I get the following error: Error
Occurred while updating an SMB share: Access is denied. Access is denied.
Now I played around with the permissions on these shares and noticed that when I add the "everyone" group to these shares with change permissions I can successfully modify the shares with no errors. If I removed the "everyone" group
I get the error. So to tell its like some service or account needs permission to these shares to be able to modify them. I don't want to keep "everyone" group on these shares. Can anyone please shed some light on what group, user,
or service account needs permissions on these shared in order for me to modify these SMB shares without getting Access is denied. Thanks

Hi,
It seems your account don’t have the enough right to modify this clustered folder permission.

Write access to a directory for ASP 2.0 application stops working on Windows 2012 Standard Cloud Server

Just moved our ASP 2.0 based web application to a Windows 2012 Standard Cloud Server. A directory is used for temporary copying of files for the application. The Read Write access is properly given and everything works but then stops working
in about 2.5 hours. The settings are still there, to make things work again typically I add "Everyone" to the security list and apply and then 3 hours later I remove "Everyone" and this refreshes the security setting and things work
againg for a couple of hours. Last Cloud server was 2008 R2 and we had no issues. Recently moved to this new cloud server. Code has been functioning fine for years and can not migrate it to newer ASP since will have to make quite a few code
changes. Obviously a bug which needs to be addressed. Again the security settings do not disappear but are no longer handled properly every 3 hours or so.

Hi,
Is there any other files have the same issue? Please create a test folder and give the same permissions with the directory for ASP 2.0 application to see if the issue still exists.
Regards,
Mandy

Server 2012 R2 File Server - 2008 R2/Win7 Clients Access Denied. SMB 3 Encryption.

I've setup a Server 2012 R2 File Server. When creating shares I selected to enable encryption.
Now Windows 7 and 2008 R2 clients cannot access. Pretty clear that this is SMB 3 encryption the cause.
OK. So can I enable these Windows 7 and 2008 R2 clients to access encrypted SMB 3 shares?
I can find no answer or documentation on this.

So can I enable these Windows 7 and 2008 R2 clients to access encrypted SMB 3 shares?
No, you can't. These Windows 7 and 2008 R2 clients talking to Windows Server 2012 R2, they will negotiate to the lowest common protocol which would be SMB 2.1 enabling communication, while not taking advantage of the SMB 3.0 specific capabilities (encryption
included).
There's no built-in encryption inside SMB 2.1

Windows 2012 R2 File Server Cluster Storage best practice

Hi Team,
I am designing Solution for 1700 VDi user's . I will use Microsoft Windows 2012 R2 Fileserver Cluster to host their Profile data by using Group Policy for Folder redirection.
I am looking best practice to define Storage disk size for User profile data . I am looking to have Single disk size of 30 TB to host user Profile data .Single disk which will spread across two Disk enclosure .
Please let me know if if single disk of 30 Tb can become any bottle neck to hold user active profile data .
I have SSD Writable disk in storage with FC connectivity.
Thanks
Ravi

Check this
TechEd session,
the
Windows Server 2012 VDI deployment Guide (pages 8,9), and
this article
General considerations during volume size planning:
Consider how long it will take if you ever have to run chkdsk. Chkdsk has gone significant improvements in 2012 R2, but it will still take a long time to run against a 30TB volume. That's down time..
Consider how will volume size affect your RPO, RTO, DR, and SLA. It will take a long time to backup/restore a 30 TB volume.
Any operation on a 30TB volume like snapshot will pose performance and additional disk space challenges.
For these reasons many IT pros choose to keep volume size under 2TB. In your case, you can use 15x 2TB volumes instead of a single 30 TB volume.

Issue in Upgrading Windows 2008 R2 Standard server to Windows 2012 Standard Srever

Hi
We have a Windows Server 2008 R2 stadard running... (came with the server).
To use 64GB, we have just purchased a licence key (retail) and downloaded ISO (Evaluation version) to upgrade.
Then I got this error message saying that
"Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard cannot be upgraded to Windows Server 2012 Standard Evaluation (Server with a GUI). You can choose to install a new copy of Windows Server 2012 Standard Evaluation (Server with a GUI) instead, but this is different from
an upgrade, and does not keep your files, settings, and programs."
Well, fresh installation is not an option for me. no way..
I read somewhere that it is because I am trying to upgrade from licenced 2008 R2 standard to evaluation 2012 standard. Then I saw a screenshot where you supply a licence key after selecting an edition to choose..
I don't get that screen sinceit is the evaluation version.
Well, I am supposed to upgrade the system before the end of the new year... now I am in a panic.. - - ;;
Can anyone help me with this please???

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Agree with words of “Dave & Tim” and based on my research, we need to perform a clean installation of Windows Server 2012 Evaluation Versions instead upgrading.
However, if we have licensed Windows Server 2012, we can upgrade to Windows Server 2012 by referring to the Upgrading previous retail versions of Windows Server to Windows Server 2012 part of
Evaluation Versions and Upgrade Options for Windows Server 2012.
Hope it helps!
Regards.

Shadow Copies on 2012 R2 File Server Cluster

Hello all!
I've inherited a two node physical 2012 R2 file server cluster that contains a few SMB shares on a single clustered disk. I'd like to enable shadow copies for this shared disk but want to store the shadow copy data on its own shared disk
as per shadow copy best practices (at least on non-clustered file servers).
I created a second cluster disk, assigned it to the same resources as the SMB clustered disk.
Now historically I've enabled shadow copies through computer management but I want to ensure the shadow copies are cluster aware so in the Failover Cluster Manager I open Storage | Disks and right click the SMB cluster disk and click the Shadow Copies tab.
From the tab I can Enable shadow copies, this sounds like what I'm looking for, unfortunately it does not give me an option to choose a disk/volume to store my shadow copy data, so this can't be right.
My next step was to connect computer management to the cluster virtual server name (NOCFS4) and through the System Tools | Shared Folders | All Tasks | Configure Shadow Copies it shows me the correct number of shares on the SMB cluster disk plus
I can see the Settings button for configuring the location and size limit for shadow copies, however once I tweak the shadow copy location and size settings, click Ok and click Enable to turn on the shadow copies I get a long pause and an error about
not being able to create a schedule. So it seems connecting to the cluster virtual object is not the answer either.
That leaves using computer management to connect to one of the physical server nodes of the cluster. When I open the shadow copy interface on the physical node I note that it shows a 0 for the number of shares it detects on the SMB clustered disk.
This doesn't surprise me since this interface isn't cluster resource aware.
So I'm stuck. Does anyone know the "Microsoft way" to enable shadow copies on a clustered disk while storing the shadow copy data on a second cluster disk both attached to the same cluster resource?

Hi guys
I spotted exactly same problem right now on Windows 2012 R2 with latest updates.
Enabling Shadow Copy via Cluster Manager on disk will enable schedule and snapshots but schedule is not-cluster aware (is created locally on node) and "Previous Versions" are visible only locally but not via shared folders (UNC path accesible by
clients)
When I spotted this behavior I tried different way going via Computer Management and cluster resource name but console always hangs for me when using "Configure Shadow Copies". After many minutes configuration window is opened (Hurray!) but any
action there will hang whole console again. Enabling Shadow Copies will fail with "0x80004005: Unspecified
error" for creating scheduled task but "Next Run Time" column still shows "Disabled". Checking disk resource via Cluster Manager shows it is enabled and ?local? scheduled task is created.
Computer management console still shows DISABLED and any action freezes whole console (only when cluster resource name is used).
This fix I found, unfortunately, is not applicable to 2012 R2 OS: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2894464
To sum up there is a major bug in MS implementation in Shadow Copies for Shared Folders when clustering is used or it is still not supported in 2012 R2? Doing it outside cluster works as it should (without freezes and Previous Versions are available via
UNC)
There is no documentation about FileServer Clustering on 2012(R2) unfortunately.
Could someone from MS clarify it?
Many thanks
Filip
EDIT:
Ok, one correction:
Scheduled task is not created in "Failover Clustering" hive of Scheduled tasks as user may expect but failover of fileshare to other node will unregister/reregister it on active node only.

Windows 2008 R2 File Server - user profiles appear underdirectory C:\user

I've a windows 2008 r2 file server and few day ago I've noticed that under directory c:\users some user profiles have been created.
These users don't have rdp access to this server and don't use any ts application.
Is this a problem or a normal behavior?

Hello,
IIRC this is normal behavior as they do a connect to the server to access the shared folders.

Why aren´t all users creating a local Profile on the fileserver?

PCO on Windows 2012 64-bit server

Hi All,
We have MII hosted on windows 2012 64-bit server. We are planning to install latest GA version of PCo which happens to be 2.3. From the product availability matrix it seems that PCo 2.3 is not listed in the OS for it.
I know that PCo 15 which is in ramp is compatible with windows 2012 64-bit server.
Has anyone installed PCo 2.3 on windows 2012 64-bit server or is anyone aware when PCo 2.3 will be available for windows 2012 64-bit server.

i have spent two days trying to fix this, including:
- reset the reporting service AD account
- create a new reporting service AD account
- change report server to "local system" instead of AD account
- reinstall the reporting role several times
- reinstall the entire SQL reporting server service
- delete the reporting db and all related objects on the filesystem
- modify permissions of reporting service user (full admin on OS and SQL level, as well as in reporting server roles)
- install a new vm with SQL server reporting services (the error does not happen on this new machine)
at the moment, sccm is creating a new "CM_MED.OLD.xxx" folder in reporting server every minute in a loop.
how can i solve this?
Environment is Server 2012R2, sccm 2012r2 cu2, SQL 2012 sp2.

this is what i see in reportserver logs:

Error when re-starting an SQL Server Instance from VBA - [SQL-DMO]Service Control Error: Access is denied.

Our Application needs to have the use of the [Named Pipes] and [TCP/IP] Protocols. To save our Users the hassle of having to enable them manually our application has always done it for them and then stopped and restarted SQL Server. However
since the advent of Vista and Windows 7, the restart stopped working. We solved the problem by detecting the failure to re-start and giving Users sufficient instructions for them to do it themselves. Since this only occurs during installation on
the Server, this approach has not been too much of a hassle. However we would like to tidy this up if possible. This the VBA code that is causing the problem:
    obj_SQLServerInstance2.Start _
        g_SQL_UseWindowsAuthentication, _
        SQLServerInstance, _
        UserName, _
        Password
This still works when run under XP, but fails under Windows 7 with the Error:
[SQL-DMO]Service Control Error: Access is denied.
Does anyone know how to resolve the problem?

This still works when run under XP, but fails under Windows 7 with the Error:
[SQL-DMO]Service Control Error: Access is denied.
Hello Brian,
Under Windows 7 you have to run the VBA script with admin permission, a normal user don't have permissions to start/stop services.

HT4968 Calendar is locked on my Mac. I keep getting the message "The server responded with an error: Access to iCloud is not permitted. The server responded 403 to operation caldavmigrate to server queue able operation." How do I resolve?

Calendar is locked on my MAC.
I keep getting the message" The server responded with an error: Access to icloud is not permitted. The server responded 403 to oepration caldavmigrate to server queueable operation."
How do I recify?

We previously had a similar issue when migrating multiple accounts from MobileMe to iCloud. The issue was resolved by disabling and then enabling iCal sync through iCloud on our iMacs in System Preferences.
Always backup your calendar before troubleshooting (File > Export > iCal Archive).
The following steps are roughly from a Apple Support Community discussion.
Open iCloud in System Preferences.
Switch off (uncheck) iCal sync in iCloud System Preferences pane.
Backup iCal before doing this. You will need to remove calendar data.
Open iCal and verify the iCloud account is removed in the iCal preferences under accounts.
Close iCal, reopen System Preference and switch on (check) iCal sync in iCloud System Preferences pane.
Reopen iCal and verify the iCloud account is enabled in the iCal preferences under accounts.
At this point if the problem persists you might try completely signing out of iCloud and then signing back in. But remember to backup all related data (iCal, Contacts, Mail, Photostream, etc) before turning off iCloud sync!

I assume you are implying "biztax" application here, right?
I have contacted their program lead, with no result at all.
Past days I have been searching for a solution - reinstalls / new systems - no solution.

If anyone finds a solution to this issue, please do let me know - any help is appreciated.
Biztax tells to use the "signature", not the "authentication" - but it is only Auth. that is showing up as option to sign (that works)
ps, did you fiddle with the Adobe Reader XI security settings and import that PKI etc as well? I hoped that would be the breaktrough. Sadly i'm still crying in my chair.
Oh, and dont forget: they claim nobody else got this issue. Maybe one or two people. (We got about 8 customers experiencing exactly the same symptoms at the same time )
