Event ID 55: The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. ...
In my Hyper-V server I get an error message in the event log:
Event ID 55
The file system structure on the disk is corrupt and unusable. Please run the chkdsk utility on the volume \\?\Volume{d8cfcca8-c935-11e1-acc4-d94f72d41a21}.
I think that the volume is an ID of a Virtual hard disk, but how do I find which one?
Things I already tried:
mountvol.exe does not list the volume;
vssadmin list writers does not show the volume.
We suspect this happens when Backup Exec makes a shadow copy of a volume as it occurs as the backups are going. But how do we see which volume on which virtual machine is corrupt?
(We have a 5-cluster Hyper-V host, cluster shared volumes based on iSCSI, runing Server 2008R2 Datacentre edition).

If the event is generated on your Hyper-V server you should run the chkdsk utility on that server not on a virtual machine. I recommend you back up the virtual machines on the volume before you run the utility.

I discovered this error is generated at the same time a virtual machine of Windows 8 (consumer preview) is backed up, I think it may be related... will move this virtual machine to a different host and see if I get the same error on the new host...
To be continued.

Hi,
Any updates about the issue?

I'm seeing the same error in a 3 node Hyper V cluster (2008 R2) fully patched during VM backup using DPM 2010 SP1. Also using Iscsi CSV's. Doing a serialized backup per CSV LUN.
Hyper V nodes are monitored using SCOM that pickes up this event.
hope to do some research this week and find the root cause.
@ Richard_artes: Did you manage to figure out the root cause of this event?

Check for Multiple Null Registry entries with VBScript
Hey Scripting Guy,
I know questions have been asked about reading Registry keys and Values and if they exist but... My question is "How can you check for multiple keys that may or may not exist." The basis of my question is checking if "Remote Desktop" is enabled on a computer. There are 3 registry keys involved. I have a script but if two keys are missing, the script only reports the 1st entry that is missing. I even tried breaking it into different Subs to see if that would help but it has not. I only included the 3 subs, I did not include the beginning of the script with the Declarations, Objects and Constants.
- "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon\WinStationsDisabled"
- "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\fDenyTSConnections"
- "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\TSUserEnabled"
Thank you.

Use values from two colums in a list as a unique index
I'm wondering how to enforce any combination of values from two list's columns to act as a unique index, maybe you guys can help?
Please get familiar with image I'm linking below. Values from columns "Urzadzenie" and "Port" are those that I want to use as a indexes. I want to avoid situation in which two rows ("3" and "9") have the same values: 'war_lx4' in Urządzenie column and 'ae0' in Port column.
Actually this list was created after exporting my Access database to SharePoint. In Access I have no problem to use values from many columns to act as a unique index but unfortunatelly after exporting to SP this functionality is gone ;/
I'm also wondering if there is a way to fix it in Access or I have to modify some SP settings.

There is no OOB option to apply unique constraint on multiple columns. You could try using JavaScript and override PreSaveAction to prevent the save if the combination exists. Refer to the following posts for more information

Snapshot Master - View all checkpoints, schedule checkpoints, run reports...
Hey guys, just wanted to share an applications that I've come across called Snapshot Master - lets you view all your checkpoints in one screen, and delete any you don't need. It also lets you schedule checkpoints across multiple VMs and even lets you set a date to auto delete them! Has a bunch of different reports you can run too. Plus a load of other options.
If you need to do any of these things, maybe take a look as it's saved me a few headaches.

special character question/help
I am working on a script where it is accepting parameters from our internal erp system which is not a windows based o/s system.
All of the parameters are formatted like this: "<<MODE=SELECT>>"
My script, in theory, is to take the incoming parameters and writing them to a text file in a format like this <<MODE=SELECT>>
My issue is how to strip off the double quotes and not have the << or >> cause errors
I have found may ways to remove them but each time I remove them and run the script I get this error
<< was unexpected at this time
My script is as follows:
Update - I used a function to replace the " with a space and received the same error
echo %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8
echo %8
set p1=%~8
set dirname=C:\temp\%p1%
if not exist %dirname% mkdir %dirname%
cd C:\temp\%p1%
REM CREATE VARIABLE %TIMESTAMP%
for /f "tokens=1-8 delims=.:/-, " %%i in ('echo exit^|cmd /q /k"prompt $D $T"') do (
for /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/-,() skip=1" %%a in ('echo.^|date') do (
set dow=%%i
set mm=%%j
set dd=%%k
set yy=%%l
set hh=%%m
set min=%%n
set sec=%%o
set hsec=%%p
)
)
REM ensure that hour is always 2 digits
if %hh%==0 set hh=00
if %hh%==1 set hh=01
if %hh%==2 set hh=02
if %hh%==3 set hh=03
if %hh%==4 set hh=04
if %hh%==5 set hh=05
if %hh%==6 set hh=06
if %hh%==7 set hh=07
if %hh%==8 set hh=08
if %hh%==9 set hh=09
set timeStamp=%yy%%mm%%dd%_%hh%%min%%sec%
set TextfileName = VC%timestamp%.txt
set p=%~1
@echo %p%> vcab.txt
set p=%~2
@echo %p%>> vcab.txt
set p=%~3
@echo %p%>> vcab.txt
set p=%~4
@echo %p%>> vcab.txt
set p=%~5
@echo %p%>> vcab.txt
set p=%~6
@echo %p%>> vcab.txt
set p=%~7

Is there a way to do this

Powershell and PDF using itextsharp
I am working with success in reading PDF files using the itextsharp.dll.
Below the code fragment, which does this little miracle:
Add-Type -Path $ItextSharp $reader = New-Object iTextSharp.text.pdf.pdfreader -ArgumentList $TestPDF for ($page = 1; $page -le $reader.NumberOfPages; $page++) { $lines = [char[]]$reader.GetPageContent($page) -join "" -split "`n" foreach ($line in $lines) { $line } } I want to do nicer things however, and here come my question:
In order to understand better the dll at hand I try the following:
$asm = [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile($ItextSharp) $asm.GetTypes() | select Name, Namespace | sort Namespace | ft -groupby Namespace
but how do I arrive the the methods and object defined in the dll without desecting the C# code ? unfortunately the dll does not come with a lot of documentation, so I would like to use Powershell board tools to explore what I have in the dll file.
Question I have are: how do I know from the dll that the object I want to create is:iTextSharp.text.pdf.pdfreader ?
Thank you very much for any hint
Yours
Erich

Never used the psoting tool. will learn it, I promise ....
Problem was with firefox, now I use IE.
Anyway the question is how do I arrive from:
$ItextSharp = $PathToItextSharp + "\itextsharp.dll"
Add-Type -Path $ItextSharp
$reader = New-Object iTextSharp.text.pdf.pdfreader -ArgumentList $TestPDF
I.e. after Add-Type I do not have any object yet to inspect. How do I know that I must create an object using "iTextSharp.text.pdf.pdfreader".
something like: $asm = [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile($ItextSharp) ???
thx a lot

That is clear, but , once I called New-Object I need gm. But my question is how do I know the parameter of New-Object, i.e. how do I know that the name is "iTextSharp.text.pdf.pdfreader" and not only "iTextSharp.text.pdf" ?
$ItextSharp = $PathToItextSharp + "\itextsharp.dll" Add-Type -Path $ItextSharp # which Object can I create ? # I have read that one: iTextSharp.text.pdf.pdfreader # are there any others ? # or other dll, for example: # which ones do I need for itextsharp-dll-xmlworker.ddl $reader = New-Object ?????? -ArgumentList $TestPDF $reader | Get-Member
One possible approach is:
$asm = [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile($ItextSharp) $asm.GetTypes() | select Name, Namespace | sort Namespace | ft -groupby Namespace # this works fine, however I do not get methods # and elements or classes

Ahh. That looks better and is readable.
The answer is "Autocomplete. Type iTextSharp then a dot and hit <tab> and cycle through all embedded type and so on.
Get the enume this way:
PS C:\scripts> [iTextSharp.text.pdf.CMYKColor]::ORANGE R G B - - - 255 200 0 PS C:\scripts>
After the :: tab through the enum names.

There must be something I am missing. Let me reassume what I do
$ItextSharp = $PathToItextSharp + "\itextsharp.dll" Add-Type -Path $ItextSharp
then I enter:
ItextSharp.
and tab to expand, nothing happens.
[iTextSharp.text.pdf.CMYKColor]::ORANGE however works fine.
another try:
$asm = [Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile($ItextSharp)
then I enter
$asm.
and tab to enter, then the object gets expanded, but it seems to me, that are all methods inherited from type object, indeed I do not find "iTextSharp.text.pdf.pdfreader". Below the output of $asm | gm
Clone Method System.Object Clone()
CompareTo Method int CompareTo(System.Object value), int CompareTo(string strB)
Contains Method bool Contains(string value)

The big issue here is that you do not know PowerShell.
Add a type does not get you anything useful with this DLL because of how it is designed.
Start dimple until you understand how PowerShell works. Don't write scripts. Just do this at a command prompt.
Where you see <tab> means that we tab until the item we want is displayed.
PS C:\scripts> add-type -Path .\iTe<tabs>xtSharp\it<tabs>extsharp.dll PS C:\scripts> $doc = New-Object iTextSharp.<tabs>text.D<tabs>ocument PS C:\scripts> $$doc.<tabs>HtmlStyleClass PS C:\scripts> $doc | gm TypeName: iTextSharp.text.Document Name MemberType Definition ---- ---------- ---------- Add Method bool Add(iTextSharp.text.IElement element), bool IElementListener.Add(iTextSharp.text.IElem AddAuthor Method bool AddAuthor(string author) AddCreationDate Method bool AddCreationDate() AddCreator Method bool AddCreator(string creator) AddDocListener Method void AddDocListener(iTextSharp.text.IDocListener listener) AddHeader Method bool AddHeader(string name, string content)
Typing the first couple of letters will start the tabbing at that string and proceed ahead.
Takes some time to review the documentation on how to use PowerShell autocomplete.

In ISE this is what happens:
To make this work in ISE you have to first execute the add-type line After that the Intellisence and AutoComplete systems will work.

In PS5 we can use new semantics to create a type instance:
Note that we can use the type [itextsharp.<tabs> ... to complete the object reference and add the "new()" constructor to create an object. If the constructor takes arguments we can find them lby leaving off the () and it willlist all method overload:
D:\scripts> [System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection]::new OverloadDefinitions ------------------- System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection new(string connectionString) System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection new(string connectionString, System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCredential credential) System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection new()
Reflection can find anything on an object. If you take time to learn how to use PowerShell and the editor you will find you can inspect and use almost any type library with ease even with limited documentation.

I have done the tests recommended in you post by going through the steps in "Steps to troubleshoot SQL connectivity issues" Turning off the Firewall solved the problem, but naturally, I don't want to leave it turned off.
Here are the settings I have changed and the results:
Firewall off: Instant connection.
Domain Profile: Inbound connections changed from Block to Allow. (No results) Time Out at 15 seconds
Private Profile: Inbound connections changed from Block to Allow. (No results) Time Out at 15 seconds
Public Profile: Inbound connections changed from Block to Allow. (No results) Time Out at 15 seconds
All three of the above set to Allow (No Results) Time Out at 15 seconds
IPSec Settings: All computers on the domain added to Only Allow Exceptions. (No results) Time Out at 15 seconds
IPSec Settings: Added Domain Admins to Only Allow Authorized list.
Are there any other firewall settings I can try resetting?

Some devices, all running 32-bit versions of Windows 10, are excluded from receiving the update though the company notes in a blog post announcing the new release.
Microsoft plans to make ISO images available at the end of the week which will work on 32-bit PCs as well so that the update may be installed on those devices.

Take Note: If you're an Insider using Windows 10 on a 32-bit machine, you won't be receiving this build today. There is a bug causing 32-bit installs to fail, therefore this build is not rolling out on that architecture. 64-bit users can proceed as normal.

Well, I feel better now knowing that the problem is not in my end.

From yet another site :
excerpt : Source
"We have discovered a bug that impacts our ability to release this build to PCs running 32-bit (x86) versions of Windows 10 Insider Preview builds. Because the majority of Insiders in the Fast ring have PCs running 64-bit (x64), we decided to go ahead and release this build with 32-bit PCs blocked until our next flight. We plan to release ISOs for this build by the end of the week and Insiders on 32-bit PCs will be able to update from the ISOs.

HI,
I have a community site template enabled, in which i need to acheive the following things as follows,
1. I need to have custom Join this community link, by default it have on byut I couldn't see that web part, might be email is not configured in it not sure due to that?
2. I need to have only the approved reply and discussion to be showed in the page how to acheive that
3. in the count of the reply it will have all the count which includes, but i need only the approved counts.
Thanks,

1. with network capture from IE developer tools, i can see that Join Community model dialogue show the page /_layouts/15/CommunityJoinPage.aspx ;
After you click send request, administrator can find a pending request in site settings->Access Request and invitations.
The Join Community process just request and assign site permissions, user needs more then Contribute permission to create post or reply in the community, which means 'join' the community.
2. In site settings->versioning settings, you can set the require content approval to yes. And Only user who can approve items can see draft items

GuYuming,
Is there any way to have just the discussion require approval and then the replies not require approval? That's the way it worked in our staging environment but in Production it seems to want the approval for all items.

Unable to run automated tasks with reboot due to bitlocker
Hi,
I run several VBScripts and windows batch files. I cannot find a command to run for either as an administrator on the local computer that will reboot the machine and not prompt the user for a bitlocker pin when it starts back up. This is needed as i have a job that runs that needs a reboot to continue with several tasks post reboot. Does anyone know if this is achievable as an admin using wither VBScript or a windows batch file? If so, how?
Regards,
Vishay

BitLocker can be configured not to require a PIN when booting.
This is not a scripting question, however.

I don't have a machine I can test with, but if you make a call PowerShell:
get-bitlockervolume | suspend-bitlocker -rebootcount 1
That might keep BitLocker at bay without having to turn it off entirely. I don't know if this will suspend the PIN requirement, however.

Enabling Forest Discovery
Hi,
I have manually created the boundary based on site and IP subnet, If i enable forest discovery does it repopulate all the site and convert that as a boundary irrespective of one which i have already created it manually or it will create the delta(one which is newly created in AD )
Any help would be much appreciated.
Reply:
Torsten Meringer | http://www.mssccmfaq.de

Reply:
For AD sites, yes.
Forest discovery does not create IP Subnet Boundaries though, it creates IP Address Range boundaries which are much preferred.
If you've already created your boundaries, there's no need to have forest discovery create them again though so you can disable that. Alternatively, as Torsten pointed out, boundaries have no functionality until they are added to a boundary group so there's no harm in having them enabled either.

BranchCache: How many HostedServer can you deploy with an one content (main branch) server?
Hello guys,
i hope you guys can help me with that quesiton.
Q: How many HostedServer can you deploy with one content server?
For example: i have my content server in USA. So can i deploy a hosted server in Vietnam and a hosted server in China? It´s that possible or support BranchCache only one HostedCache Server for each content server?
Thank you :)
Megas_Ioan
Reply:
hi,
your configuration is not a problem. You can have many content servers and many HostedCache servers.
The HostedCache servers don't need to know about content servers - in fact the clients could be pulling content from multiple content servers - and you can have multiple HostedCache servers in large locations with many clients for redundancy.
thanks

Issue while adding article to existing subscription(Transactional Replication)
We are haing issues while adding article on existing subscription.
The replication is setup with Initialize from backup=true.
Below is the command I tired to use aftet transfering the rows thru export import wizard but the table on the subscriber isnt refreshing.
exec sp_addarticle @publication = N'marcus8rpl' , @article = N'appnames' , @source_owner = N'dbo' , @source_object = N'appnames' , @type = N'logbased' , @description = null , @creation_script = null , @pre_creation_cmd = N'NONE' , @identityrangemanagementoption = N'manual' , @destination_table = N'appnames' , @destination_owner = N'dbo' , @vertical_partition = N'false' , @ins_cmd = N'CALL sp_MSins_dboappnames' , @del_cmd = N'CALL sp_MSdel_dboappnames' , @upd_cmd = N'CALL sp_MSupd_dboappnames'
Reply:
1. Stop the log reader agent
2. Stop making changes to the new article in the Publisher (Note that table should be quiesced to all changes while the data is being copied out from the publisher and until the table is added to the publication with sp_addarticle)
3. Generate a script to create the table on the subscriber and copy the data out of the article from Publisher to Subscriber.
A. For new or small tables you can use INSERT INTO… SELECT * FROM
B. For tables with a lot of existing data, create a SSIS package that creates and then load the table on the remote server
4. Add the article to the publication using sp_addarticle
5. Start Log Reader Agent
6. Now you can start to make changes as the log reader will start tracking changes for the article at this point.
Please note that if the backup already had the article and if it is still present in the subscriber and provided there is no schema change is done to that table, you don’t need to create it again in the subscriber.
Also compare the row count of the table being added between publisher and subscriber before starting log reader agent to make sure that both publisher and subscriber have the same amount of data.

There is an issue with adding new articles to publications where the subcription is initialized from a backup.
New articles won't replicate the changes. I can't find a reference to this, but I first read about it here.
You may want to open a support incident with Microsoft on this.

Hi,
Add article in replicationAdding new article without generating a complete snapshot 1) Make sure that your publication has IMMEDIATE_SYNC and ALLOW_ANONYMOUS properties set to FALSE or 0.
Use yourDB
select immediate_sync , allow_anonymous from syspublications
If either of them is TRUE then modify that to FALSE by using the following
command
EXEC sp_changepublication @publication = 'yourpublication', @property =
N'allow_anonymous', @value='False'
Go
EXEC sp_changepublication @publication = 'yourpublication', @property =
N'immediate_sync', @value='false'
Go
2) Now add the article to the publication
Use yourDB
EXEC sp_addarticle @publication = 'yourpublication', @article ='test',
@source_object='dbo.test', @force_invalidate_snapshot=1
If you do not use the @force_invalidate_snapshot option then you will receive the
following error
Msg 20607, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_MSreinit_article, Line 99
Cannot make the change because a snapshot is already generated. Set
@force_invalidate_snapshot to 1 to force the change and invalidate the existing snapshot.
3) Verify if you are using CONCURRENT or NATIVE method for synchronization by running the following command.
Use yourdb
select sync_method from syspublications
If the value is 3 or 4 then it is CONCURRENT and if it is 0 then it is NATIVE.
For more information check
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189805.aspx
4) Then add the subscription for this new article using the following command
EXEC sp_addsubscription @publication = 'yourpublication', @article = 'test',
@subscriber ='subs_servername', @destination_db = 'subs_DBNAME',
@reserved='Internal'
If you are using the NATIVE method for synchronization then the parameter
@reserved='Internal' is optional but there is no harm in using it anyways. But if it is CONCURRENT then you have to use that
parameter. Else the next time you run the snapshot agent it is going to generate a snapshot for all the articles.
Lastly start the SNAPSHOT AGENT job from the job activity monitor. To find
the job name follow these steps.
· select * from msdb..sysjobs where name like '%yourpublication%'
· Right click on each of those jobs and find which one contains the step
'Snapshot Agent startup message'. This is the job that you want to
start from the first step.
Verify that the snapshot was generated for only one article.

Hi, I have an oracle to sql transactional replication setup. How can I add new articles without bringing in the other tables? I can't run Step 1 above because the publication database is an oracle database. How can I update the 'immediate_sync' and 'allow_anonymous' to false then? I can't seem to find the table on the oracle database to make the update? Please help...

It's possible to add article(s) after inialization from backup but you need to change some options on publication and update one system table for subscribtion :
http://www.concatskills.com/2016/02/01/replication-initialisation-par-sauvegarde/
1) Disable initialization from backup on publication
2) Use async mode on publication
3) Update system table for subscribtion

First time on here but have to say Brilliant Mark. I had done alot of research on this and there is a myriad of schemes to get this going. Yours worked a treat. Still a bit odd after initializing from a backup you cant add articles using the snapshot agent automatically but yours worked a treat.Who is Mark? Don't see a post from him. Is it different/less convoluted than SiaKumar's?

Netstumbler on Win7 64-bit
I can't seem to get Netstumbler to work on Windows 7 64-bit Release Candidate. Does anyone know if this works on the 32-bit version of Windows 7? Perhaps it's a problem with my network card? I'm running an Intel 5100 AGN network card.

FWIW, NS doesn't work on my Vista (x86) laptop, either. NS, useful as it may be, also hasn't been updated in quite some time, and still to this day lacks even Vista support.
There's a sticky (still posted) in the NS forums on this.
My thinking is that your issue will be fixed when mine is - that is, when a version newer than 0.4.0 (one that has proper Vista support) is released.
Edit: your question got me to looking for a something that works. Vistumbler works under Vista x86, and should work on x64. It's also actively developed.
HTH,

There is a piece of software that uses the netsh command as its root and it much easier than a command line called vistumber. It is written to work on vista and 7 but uses the netsh command to gather its information. The link is below. I like it, but my quest to find a piece of software that reports SNR like netstumbler and works on Vista and 7 continues.......

Note that this article does not say that it supports moving from VMware workstation.
You could try using a third party product. I have used Starwind's converter (no cost) successfully. Ensure that you remove the VMware tools from the VM before you convert the disk. Starwind's converter doesn't really convert the VM; it converts the virtual hard drive. Then you create a VM on Hyper-V and point it to the converted VHD, so you need to note the configuration of the VM on the VMware side to use to create the Hyper-V VM.
Of course, the typical caveat ... it is always recommended to build the VM from scratch rather than convert. Then you never have to wander if it was the conversion process if something goes wrong with the VM in the future. One less thing to debug.
