hello:

I want to retrieve a variable $i in nested foreach in the name disk-$i, the problem is that i loose the value of $i on disk-$i,how can i preserve this variable for example

foreach ($i in (1..$n)){

get-job | foreach {set-disk disk-$i}

Unfortunately you code does not make mush sense. What are you trying to do?

foreach ($i in (1 .. $n)) {  	Write-Host $i  	get-item "folder-$i" # ??????  	get-job |   		ForEach-Object {  			set-disk -Number $i   		}  }

windows installer service

I have this frustrating error which prevents me from installing Windows Installer Service. I wanted to install Microsoft .Net framework 4.6 for Corel Graphic Suite X8 but then I had this error saying:

"Setup cannot run, because the Windows Installer Service is not available on this computer."

So I tried Googling for an answer and I tried command prompt (using run as administrator) "net start MCIServer" but It said:

"The service name is invalid".

I then opened the services window and I didn't find Windows Installer so I thought I should download it. I downloaded it from Microsoft website but again I had this error "The requested operation requires elevation".

I'm so tired of these errors and I've had a frustrating day and this is killing me at the moment.

Thank you.

New career paths

Hallo out there,

I´m on the printing market for over a decade now and considering to move to the pure IT, i mean that because I already assume some roles in the IT department as well like installing and troubleshooting file sharing and email related stuff, ip conectivity and cabling. is the MVA and its certificates on its own enough to move on to lets say sytem administration or helpdesk roles? By the way, i´m a copier tech.

i would really apreciate some points of view.

SQL Server 2012 Monitoring

Hi,

I need to know what all access is required to monitor SQL Server 2012.

Thanks,

Reply:

You can get a list for that by searching MSDN: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/system-dynamic-management-views/system-dynamic-management-views

VIEW SERVER STATE and VIEW DATABASE STATE are usually enough to get the necessary info. But without knowing more about what you want to monitor it will be hard to give specific permissions. I would suggest you try monitoring with a login that has no permissions and <g class="gr_ gr_272 gr-alert gr_gramm gr_inline_cards gr_run_anim Grammar multiReplace" data-gr-id="272" id="272">adjust</g> upwards until you are able to monitor without any errors.

------------------------------------
Reply:

If users just need to view Activity Monitor in SSMS, grant their SQL login account 'VIEW SERVER STATE' at the instance level.

Grant Server Permissions (Transact-SQL)

Hope that helps,

Network and Sharing Center not accessible after deployment

I am having a couple of issues that I am hoping someone can help me out with. I have used MDT for a while and typically don't have any major issues that I can't eventually weed out, but am stuck on this one. Deploying Windows 10x64 1607. According to the wizard and BDD.log, there are no issues, but upon closer examination, I notice that several scripts, (run as applications) I have in my TS didn't do anything they were supposed to, even though the BDD.log recognized them and said they completed successfully. Also, I see that I am unable to open "Network and Sharing Center". It sits there,,,waiting,,, with the annoying spinning circle. I realize that there could be something wrong with my image, but no there were no errors when ran sysprep and capture. Just wondering if anyone else has run into similar problems? Thanks!

This might not be a trivial request. Does the service have any dependencies on other services? Do any other services depend on the service? What research have you done, what have you tried so far, and with what results?

Hi Bill.

The service don't depend on any other service. Whenever an applicaiton's process goes down we need to run the service to restart the processes. So I want to automate whole this set. And avoid the manual login every time followed by service restart.

So I thought writing a script to login to a remote application server and restarting the service.

Need help getting script to detect the subnet it is on and ping specific devices from a master list based on subnet

I have a script that will ping a list of devices. What I am trying to figure out is how to have the script detect the subnet it is on and then select those devices from the master list based on subnet and spit out a CSV file with ping results and device status based on the current subnet.

To detect subnet you need the device address and its subnet mask.

Posting all of that forms code has nothing to do with subnet allocation. It doesn't help.

Please post only the piece of code you are using to detect subnet.

This will get you the subnet ID using the mask.

How can I get the script to identify the subnet it is on

A script isn't "on" a subnet (by this I assume you mean a network ID), but a computer is. Here's one way for a script to determine the current computer's network ID:

Get-WmiObject Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration -Filter "IPEnabled=true" |   Select-Object `   @{   Name="ID"   Expression={([IPAddress] (([IPAddress] $_.IPAddress[0]).Address -band ([IPAddress] $_.IPSubnet[0]).Address)).IPAddressToString}   }

Assuming a single NIC:

The following also gives you the mask length:

$nic = Get-WmiObject Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration -Filter 'IpEnables=True'  [ipaddress]$ipaddr = $nic.IPAddress[0]  [ipaddress]$ipsubnet = $nic.IPSubnet[0]  ([ipaddress]($ip.Address -band $ipsubnet.address)).IPAddressToString  # mask length  [convert]::ToString($ipsubnet.Address, 2).Length
# number of hosts
[convert]::ToString($ipsubnet.Address, 2).Length - 2
# start by adding to net address from 1.
1..$numhosts | %{$netaddress + $_ }

-- Bill Stewart [Bill_Stewart]

------------------------------------
Reply:

our support staff are using landesk to take over a client workstation which is logged in as a normal user, so they have no access to run resmon, which is locked down for admins only.

There are times that processes will conflict with our main business application from running. Lync has been the latest one.

If Lync is running it will block our business app sometimes. Ending task on lync and the hung business app processes lets the program start normally. Without being able to do that, the user needs to reboot and hope it does not happen again

Asking for a username and password in a script doesn't seem to have anything to do with your scenario.

product key question

Hello,

I was speaking with a rep yesterday directed me to this site. I am having issues matching up product key cards with my computers since the key card I installed is different from the one on the Microsoft site. I was give a service request id 1387181892.

Troubleshooting "the username or password is not valid" when trying to change the default content access account

So what can you do when you're trying to change the account used as the "default content access account" for the search service application (Central Admin > Manage Service Applicaitons > Search Service Application), every attempt fails with the error "the username or password is not valid," you know for a fact that the username and the password are both valid, and the verbose ULS logs offer no clues?

Trying to reset the account with the Set-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication also gives a similar error: "Content source access username or password is not valid."

This turned out to be an excellent opportunity to do some DebugDiag exception logging (see https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/chaun/2013/11/19/steps-to-log-all-net-exceptions-to-a-log-file-with-debug-diag-2-0/) against the application pool used by Central Admin while we reproduced the problem.

The first log showed just one exception:

Type: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
Message: The referenced account is currently locked out and may not be logged on to.
Stack:

Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchApi.WriteAndReturnVersion(CodeToRun`1<Int32>, VoidCodeToRun, Int32)
DomainNeutralILStubClass.IL_STUB_CLRtoCOM(System.String, System.String)
Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchApi.WriteAndReturnVersion(CodeToRun`1<Int32>, VoidCodeToRun, Int32)
Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.Content.SetDefaultGatheringAccount(System.String, System.Security.SecureString)
Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Internal.UI.ContentAccessAccount.OnClickOK(System.Object, System.EventArgs)

So the solution there is pretty obvious there. But attempts to change the account to other accounts that were not locked out gave us the same error in the browser but a different .net exception:

Type: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
Message: The profile for the user is a temporary profile.
Stack:

DomainNeutralILStubClass.IL_STUB_CLRtoCOM(System.String, System.String)
Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchApi.WriteAndReturnVersion(CodeToRun`1<Int32>, VoidCodeToRun, Int32)
Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.Content.SetDefaultGatheringAccount(System.String, System.Security.SecureString)
Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Internal.UI.ContentAccessAccount.OnClickOK(System.Object, System.EventArgs)

What's the best way to deal with this type of profile related problem?

My searching for "The profile for the user is a temporary profile" led us to a helpful webpage by Thomas Vuylsteke, a Microsoft PFE with a speciality in Active Directory. I am reproducing the entire page here just in case the original happens to disappear some day.

Temporary Profiles and IIS Application Pool Identities
Published on Monday, September 24, 2012 in IIS, Windows 2008, Windows 2008 R2
I'm a bit stumbled that I've only come across this now. Recently I discovered that there are some cases where you can end up with your service account using a temporary profile. Typically this is the case where your service account has very limited privileges on a Server. Like application pool identities which run as a regular AD user, which I consider a best practice. I myself saw this in the context of the application pool identities in a SharePoint 2010 farm or with SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 R2.
The phenomena is also described at: Todd Carter: Give your Application Pool Accounts A Profile So this does not apply to all Application Pool identities! Only those running with "load profile=true".
In the Application event log you can find the following event:
Windows cannot find the local profile and is logging you on with a temporary profile. Changes you make to this profile will be lost when you log off.
How to fix it if you see those nasty "c:\users\TEMP" folders?
1.Stop the relevant application pools
2.Stop the IIS Admin Service (in services.msc)
3.See that the TEMP folders are gone in c:\users
4.Follow the next steps
How to make sure your accounts get a decent profile?
We will temporary add the service account to the local administrators group so they can create a profile. In fact all they need is the "logon locally" privilege. The second command will start a command prompt while loading a profile. This will ensure a proper profile is created.
1.net localgroup administrators CONTOSO\AppPoolAccount /add
2.runas /u:CONTOSO\AppPoolAccount /profile cmd
3.net localgroup administrators CONTOSO\AppPoolAccount /del
As a side note: if the TEMP folders are not disappearing, or you are still getting a temporary profile, you can try to properly cleanup the temporary profile:
1.Stop the application pools
2.Stop the IIS Admin Service
3.Using right-click properties on computer, choose advanced tab and then pick User Profiles. There you can properly delete them.
If you're still having troubles you might need to delete the TEMP folders manually AND cleanup the following registry location: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList
Especially look if there aren't any keys with .bak appended to it.
==========

------------------------------------
Reply:

With Thomas' article in mind, I confirmed in INETMGR that our appPool for Central Admin does have Load User Profile set to TRUE. No great surprise there.
I then confirmed that we had several TEMP folders under c:\users\. We had, for example, c:\users\TEMP, c:\users\TEMP.{domainname}, and c:\users\TEMP.{domainname}.000. Our other search servers did not have these folders.
Cleaning up old profiles through System Properties > Advanced Tab > Settings for User Profiles and then cleaning up more profiles in the registry at HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList as Thomas suggested solved our problem for us. We didn't have to do the other steps.

Disable "Add a language" under region & language in windows 10 1607(Enterprise edition) for standard users

Dear Experts,

We are running a Windows 10 multilingual environment where we are supporting English + 5 additional OS languages (Russian, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese and French). These additional 5 OS languages are installed along with the SCCM Task sequence.

We have below 2 objectives (Issues) where would need your support:

1. We would like to completely disable "Add a language" option under region & language in windows 10 1607 for standard users so that no standard users are able to add any additional OS language on their own:

2. As said above we are providing English + 5 additional OS languages to all users. Our next objective is to allow user to remove any provided language which is working fine in 80% of the cases but in some cases while users try to remove the OS language they get a UAC prompt (Weird as it is not always the case). Also even if they get the UAC prompt, they can still Cancel the UAC prompt window and able to remove the OS language:

Reply:

Also to keep you updated that we have already tested the below GPO and it is not useful to disable this option:

Interactive Sorting by Value within multiple groups

This should be easy but I can't seem to figure it out. All I want to do is be able to sort ascending/descending by Value across 4 groups. Here is my design...

This is the report (note that all the child groups are toggled by their parents)...

Toggling the sort widget doesn't do anything. I tried sorting by group but that just sorts the group values by alpha.Would appreciate some help with this.

Thanks!

I still haven't gotten this solved. I tried sorting on the top-level group instead of the details row, but the results are baffling. Can anybody help?
