ADMT Profile Translation and Outlook 2010 profiles [Problem solved]

Hi all,

I would like to share with you this issue which I had today when migrating users to a new domain in a new forest.

What I did:

Migrated All groups
Migrate some users
Translated users' profiles (It was an add operation)
Switched users to their new accounts

All was ok for profiles: users were able to access them based on the use of their old and new accounts.

However, I remarked the following:

After profile translation, if the user logs on using his old account and tries to access his Outlook profile all is okay. But, when after that it uses his new account he will not be able to start Outlook
After profile translation, if the user logs on using his new account and tries to access his Outlook profile all is okay. But, when after that it uses his old account he will not be able to start Outlook

So, it was like the Outlook profile was assigned to the user account which was the first one used after doing the profile translation.

Our goal was that the users should work properly using their new accounts. For that, I was able to solve the problem by applying a logon script in a group policy which was targeting only new migrated accounts.

The logon script was the following:

IF NOT EXIST %HOMEPATH%\%USERDOMAIN%\%username% IF %USERDOMAIN%==New_Domain_NetBIOSName (cd C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14
Outlook.exe /resetnavpane
mkdir %HOMEPATH%\%USERDOMAIN%\%username%
)

So, when I migrated a user and translated his profile, the user is not aware (The process is like that since we switch users in bulk) of that and will continue to use his old account. At this step, the Outlook issue will be applied only on their new accounts to use.

After migrating the user account and translating profiles, we migrated computers to the new domain: At this step, users are still use their old users' accounts. After that, we asked the users to use their new accounts. Once done, the group policy gets applied and repaired Outlook and users were able to work with no issues using their new accounts. They have not noticed that there is an issue!

Please note here that once I repaired profiles on new accounts, Outlook is no longer available when they use their old accounts. If I repair Outlook on their old account then Outlook on the new accounts will become again not available and I found no workaround for that.

Hope that this will be helpful for you :)

Ops Mgr 2012 - SPN detection for SQL Server 2008

We have just installed Ops Mgr 2012 on our network to evaluate it.

One of the alerts we are recieving is relating to SPNs for our SQL Server 2008 Servers -

"SQL Server cannot authenticate using Kerberos because the Service Principal Name
(SPN) is missing, misplaced, or duplicated."

The error indicates it is missing an SPN.

However, I have checked the SPNs for those servers, and they exist and are correct. Kerberos authentication works between them on a double hop basis as well, so I do not understand why Ops Mgr is alerting on them. Oddly, it is NOT alerting on SPNs for our SQL Server 2005 instances, only the 2008 instances.

I have attached an image showing the error and the results of setspn -l SERVICEACCOUNT, below.

Is anyone able to advise?

Thanks!

I have deleted and re-added both SPN's but Ops Mgr is still reporting that they do not exist. As previously stated, this is occuring for multiple SQL 2008 servers, but not SQL 2005 servers with SPN's setup in the same way.

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

I have now also removed the SPNs, given the service account permissions to create its own SPNs (and restarted SQL Server - confirming that it has created them) and the system is still alerting.

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

Can you also try SetSPN /L global\service.sas

It shouldn't make any difference but the script does distinguish between AD and local accounts - just wonder if SetSPN /L global\service.sas might return a different list than the screenshot you have given. Personally, the alerts I have seen from this have been genuine but that doesn't mean there isn't an issue with the script under certain circumstances.

I opened another thread about this very same problem, good to see that I'm not alone.

I have run the command using the domain as part of the service account, but have gotten back the same results.

Interestingly, I have found that when giving a SQL 2008 service account permissions to create its own SPNs, it creates 3. 2 with the port (1 netbios, 1 FQDN) and 1 without port (FQDN). All of our manually created SPNs have the port assigned to them (1 FQDN, 1 netbios).

I have had to since rebuild the server as the Rollup Patch prevented the Data Access service from starting, and OpsMgr is no longer alerting on that service account that has permissions to create its own, but is on the others.

I have read the Microsoft documentation, and am sure the requirements for a SQL Server SPN is for 1 FQDN and 1 netbios. The SPNs for the other servers work fine with Kerberos authentication, and OpsMgr is still not alerting on the SQL 2005 SPNs which are identical.

Thanks!

Ah ha!

After reading this - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191153(v=sql.105).aspx I was wrong, the SPN requirements are different between 2005 and 2008. So while the SPNs we have created are valid and work, they are not technically correct, which is causing Ops Mgr to alert.

Although why it is alerting on the SPN that actually exist and not the SPN sans port, I can not answer and is probably a bug in the script?

Ajax Async call in MVC 4

I have a JS function that makes an AJAX Async call.

I have a function in Controller class that makes a Service call.

public JsonResult PostAsync(string name)
{
string val = "Not Found ";
MySr.Service1Client scc = new MySr.Service1Client();

scc.GetDataCompleted += (result, e) =>
{
val = e.Result;
string str = val;

};
scc.GetDataAsync(name);

return Json(val, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}

But, my problem is, the Server-Side function already returns the value (as "Not Found") instead of the value received after the webservice call.

I want the function to return the value after the webservice returns the value.

SharePoint 2010 Content Deployment reverting site home pages to default team site site-pages/home.aspx on destination

Hi there

I have a problem with Content Deployment jobs. They are running with out a problem and all the content is being deployed, however on some sites the default home page is changed back to the SharePoint stock standard team site site-pages/home.aspx.

I must stress that this is not on all sites but only a few, and there are many sites. The actual home page /pages/default.aspx does exist and you can go to it but it not the default. And in the sites on the source server where this is happening the default site-pages/home.aspx has sometimes been removed and when the content is deployed it is created on destination even though it's not there on the source.

Any ideas?

Reply:

If any of you come across this, the issue was caused by the Wiki feature being enabled on the source site collection and that created and set the site-pages/home.aspx as default.

Incompatibility Issues with Windows 7 and the TS-L633B DVD-RW Drive

There appears to be an incompatibility issue with Windows 7 Home Premium (32 & 64 Bit) and the TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633B ATA Device. The system works properly with the original system configuration (i.e. Gateway Laptop Model NV5421U with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-Bit), it also works properly when doing an original system recovery, using the disks, to factory default. However, when the system is upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium, both the 32 & 64 bit versions were tried, the device becomes extremely unreliable and often disconnects from the system (i.e. it is not visible in both the device manager and in the My Computer window). Because the system is new, I wrote to Gateway about it and I am still waiting on a response. Anybody recognizing this as a problem as well?

Check the Gateway Support website to see of there is a firmware update for the optical drive. Some optical drives required a firmware update to be compatible with Win 7.

Yea I'm having the same issue on my gate laptop. It works fine when i uninstall my driver and reinstall but then shortly disconnects from system... god its really annoying. I'm thinking that contacting microsoft about the issue may be a better way to go especially since I've heard gateway isn't operating anymore? Keep me posted if possible. thanks

Except Microsoft will not provide the solution if it requires a firmware update to the optical drive - that will have to come from the manufacturer/vendor or through Gateway. Microsoft does not initate software, firmware, nor drivers for other manufacture's/vendor's hardware.

You can go to the Support website http://www.samsungodd.com/Eng/ and check for a firmware update.

As far as I know, Gateway was taken over by Acer, but I could be wrong. You can still get support though. However, I just found out that my unit is currently being supported by Revonate; Phone number 1-866-243-1450.

Ok thanks thats good to know. I checked that site wasn't able to find any firmware updates for ts-l633b cd/rw... I suppose it hasn't been released yet =/. I did however find a quick fix for the issue but it involves turning off the ALPM feature which is responsible for telling the drive when not to run in order to save power... I use this laptop to take notes in class and need all the power management i can get so this is not an option for me.

If anyone happens to come across firmware update for the ts-l633b please let me know. thanks

Hello,

Thanks for the feedback on this. The article you found directly addresses the issue and the specific problem at hand. In fact, Microsoft actually identified the specific problem (i.e. the Adaptive Link Power Management (ALPM) feature) and offered a workaround for the problem if the firmware update is not yet available for the DVD device. I have looked for the firmware update for the "TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633B ATA Device", but have not been successful. I will try the workaround offered by Microsoft as per the article and see if this helps.

Thanks again

I am having the exact same problem with the same DVD drive.

I have tried the workaround via cmd.exe and it didnt work, device still disconnects itself once the tray has been opened.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Also cannot find updated firmware

Thanks

EDIT 1: ok, I think I have found the firmware update and for those that it might help it is here

http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/download.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen&releaseid=R224827&SystemID=INSPIRON1545&servicetag=&os=WLH&osl=en&deviceid=19335&devlib=0&typecnt=0&vercnt=1&catid=32&impid=-1&formatcnt=1&libid=32&typeid=-1&dateid=-1&formatid=-1&fileid=321761

This firmware is for the Dell inspiron 1545, not sure if it will help those with different laptops but I would guess it is pretty standard.

However, it hasnt helped in my situation as the flash downloader requires that the drive is active, in my case the drive disconnects and therefore the application locks up and appears to be useless.

EDIT 2: I rebooted the laptop with the DVD tray open, for some reason when I accessed 'my computer' the DVD drive was displaying.

I then ran the firmware update (I was on TS-L633B (D200), the firmware updated me to TS-L633B (D400). The problem now seems to be solved and the drive is displaying just fine.

For reference I am running windows 7 Ultimate.

Hope this helps people.

You could put the DOS update on a DOS bootable flash drive and try updating the firmware that way.

DOS based firmware flash update for TSST TS-L633B slim 8x DVD+/-RW:-

1. Unzip the TS-L633B_D400.zip into your USB key.
2. In "Dos" folder, just type "TSDNDOS.EXE L633BD400.BIN".
3. Just wait for the firmware update completion, you should see "UPDATE SUCCESSFUL" (At this time please reboot your computer) !!

I did what Rick Dee recommended, and it seems to be working, I have Win7 x64 on a Dell 755 Core2Duo. The dell driver will work on a gateway system too just make sure you indicate the your operating system is either 32 or 64 bit. I couldn't get it working like jeandemo because I could only get it to show up for 3 seconds in windows. I had to go the dos route. I know it is painful but when you have to upgrade 300+ machines you have no choice but to figure it out. I'm going to deploy updates while on Vista for this before we move to 7. Oh in Vista Enterprise this was never an issue and we have been running on that since spring this year, not sure why Ultimate has issues. Thanks, Rick and Jean!

On the Dutch Packard Bell site I found the following instructions:

click Start, type REGEDIT.

Look for and remove

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlClass{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}LowerFilters

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlClass{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}UpperFilters

Restart the computer.

It solved my problem; perhaps it will help other people.

I'm getting the same problem with a Samsung R510 Laptop, I spoke to Samsung UK and they didn't know anything about the problem even though I told them to look at the KB article.

I found this:

But I cannot seem to get it to work on any system I tried on my XP Mode Ultimate system and it just starts then stops, doesn't perform anything.

I have contacted Samsung Optical Europe they said that they would email me a solution for the drive but I'm not hopeful in getting anything from them. Samsung UK said they could take the machine in and do the firmware update on the drive, but that means they will have the computer for a few weeks then when I should be able to download and do the update myself.

I have used the work around for now and that seems to be OK. It would be nice to get a working firmware update though.

I too have a Samsung R510 and Samsung are ignoring me. This is problem is so annoying as since installing Windows 7 I can't reinstall Adobe CS4 software and am unable to work. I've been battling with this for days. I had come across the Windows regedit fix, but don't have the 'upper' and 'lower' entries.

I already fixed this problem in my Lenovo G550. Everything would be fine with that latest (SC01) firmware available at: http://www.samsungodd.com/Eng/Firmware/FWDownload/FWDownload.asp?SearchMode=TOTALSEARCH&SearchWord=TS-L633B<sup>*</sup> but it fits only pure Samsung-branded drives. In my Lenovo I had TSST TSL633B LE03 drive, so One Click Firmware Update couldn't work because of that LE03 part of the drive's name.

What I finally did was extracting 'TS-L633B_SC01.exe' (you can use 7zip to do it) onto my hard drive (this file is just compressed archive).

TS-L633B_SC01.exe consists of two packed files:

TSDNWIN.EXE
TS-L633B_SC01.bin (which is the firmware itself)

Then I opened the BIN file in HEX editor and replaced all of the 'SC' and 'SC01' words with 'LE' and 'LE03'.

Yes, It's very risky but it works for me :) Finally I just ran TSDNWIN.EXE and used modified BIN file.

Sorry for my English.

It appears I could fix this issue on my ACER Aspire 5738G x32 with upgrade to Win 7.

Deleting upper & lowewr filters did no good, FixWin did not help.

I went to ACER service & support section and downloaded and ran (as administrator) the following drivers

Chipset Intel Chipset Driver 9.1.1.1015 4.7 MB 2009/10/01

SATA Intel SATA Driver AHCI 8.9.0.1023 21.4 MB 2009/10/22.

Make sure you power down your system to allow for the new driver to load.

Only doing "restart" did not work. Only after full power up I coulfd get the message that the new driver for TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633B ATA got loaded.

Since then I tried loading, ejecting, writing & erasing DVD & CD's, bot Read ONly and Rewritable. No way to reproduce the previous problem.

I hope it can be of any help to someone.

There appears to be an incompatibility issue with Windows 7 Home Premium (32 & 64 Bit) and the TSSTcorp CDDVDW TS-L633B ATA Device. The system works properly with the original system configuration (i.e. Gateway Laptop Model NV5421U with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-Bit), it also works properly when doing an original system recovery, using the disks, to factory default. However, when the system is upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium, both the 32 & 64 bit versions were tried, the device becomes extremely unreliable and often disconnects from the system (i.e. it is not visible in both the device manager and in the My Computer window). Because the system is new, I wrote to Gateway about it and I am still waiting on a response. Anybody recognizing this as a problem as well?

Since this is so old, maynot be of use, but did anyone having these issues try the upper/lower filters registry fix? that seems to always work for me, when the drive just disappears from My Comptuer.

Microsoft informou os clientes das questões relacionadas com a mais recente iteração do cliente Windows, em que o Windows 7 não jogar bonito com a unidade de DVD. Acordo com a empresa de Redmond, os usuários têm relatado problemas em que o Windows 7 é incapaz de reconhecer a unidade de DVD após a instalação. Questões também têm sido chamaram a atenção da Microsoft sobre upgrades de Windows 7. Ao mesmo tempo, os problemas parecem afectar Windows Server 2008 R2, além de Windows 7.

"Este problema ocorre porque o driver SATA (Msahci.sys) implementa nova funcionalidade de gestão de energia que é conhecida como ALPM (Adaptive Link Power Management). Algumas unidades ópticas não se comportam corretamente com ALPM habilitado e podem não ser reconhecidas pelo computador,"Microsoft, explicou.

A empresa de Redmond também fornecido uma pequena lista de dispositivos que Windows 7 não pode reconhecer após o download, ou após uma atualização. "O seguinte é uma lista de alguns modelos de drive de DVD que são conhecidos por apresentam esse problema: TSST TS-L633B e PLDS DS-8A3S," Microsoft afirmado.

A Microsoft não oferece uma actualização para este problema, mas os clientes afetados por este problema específico podem acessar e implementar um hotfix através do suporte da Microsoft. Como alternativa, o software gigante documentou um workaround manual projetado para permitir que os usuários finais manualmente resolver o problema. Os clientes Windows 7 precisará manualmente desativar os planos de energia ALPM ativos em suas máquinas e elaborar um plano de energia nova.

“To manually disable the existing ALPM power plans on the computer, at a command prompt, type the following commands and then press ENTER after each command:
powercfg.exe -setacvalueindex 8c5e7fda-e8bf-4a96-9a85-a6e23a8c635c 0012ee47-9041-4b5d-9b77-535fba8b1442 DAB60367-53FE-4fbc-825E-521D069D2456 0

As I have just discovered, Samsung TS-L633B AC01 in my Acer Aspire 4736 is not compatible with windows 7 as described in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/975270

Fortunately, you can crossflash Samsung TS-L633B AC01 to the latest SC01 firmware. Download the latest firmware here: http://www.samsungodd.com/korLib/popup/Download.asp?path=FWDownload&fname=TS-L633B_SC01.exe

Extract the file using winrar or others. Two files will be extracted: Tsdnwin.exe and TS-L633B_SC01.bin. You won't be able to update the firmware because of different OEM version (AC01 and SC01).

Therefore you need to force flashing by creating a shortcut to Tsdnwin.exe, edit the shorcut's property 'target' field and add "-nocheck" parameter, e.g: C:\Some Folder\Tsdnwin.exe -nocheck Execute the shortcut and flash your drive.

Note: Instead of creating a shortcut you can also execute Tsdnwin.exe -nocheck from command prompt. Flashing under XP environment as in BartPE, WinBuilder or similar is beneficial as the drive does not keep disappearing like when under windows 7.

DOS based firmware flash update for TSST TS-L633B slim 8x DVD+/-RW:-

1. Unzip the TS-L633B_D400.zip into your USB key.
2. In "Dos" folder, just type "TSDNDOS.EXE L633BD400.BIN".
3. Just wait for the firmware update completion, you should see "UPDATE SUCCESSFUL" (At this time please reboot your computer) !!

I had the same problem with my Acer Aspire, Win 7 Pro and the TSST TS-L633B drive.

I contacted Acer and they sent me the following :-

Why does the DVD drive or Blu-Ray drive disappear after upgrading to Windows 7?

After upgrading to Windows 7, the notebook may not detect the DVD drive or Blu-Ray drive due to a compatibility problem between the Windows 7 driver and the Optical Drive firmware. Updating the storage driver may resolve the issue.

SOLUTION

Updating the storage driver:

Visit the Download section of Acer support website.
Select Product Family, Product Line and then your specific Product Model.
Click the Operating System drop-down arrow and select your current version.
Select the Driver tab and then click the orange arrow next to Intel SATA AHCI Driver version 8.9.0.1023 or later.
Click Save and select where you want to download the file.
For additional information on how to install the downloaded driver, please visit Installing a downloaded driver on Windows Vista or Windows 7.

MORE INFORMATION

For Aspire Timeline 4810T and 5810T, it is also recommended to download the OpticalDriver PM application. Follow these steps:

Visit the Download section of Acer support website.
Select Product Family, Product Line and then your specific Product Model.
Click the Operating System drop-down arrow and select your current version.
Select the Application tab and then click the orange arrow next to OpticalDrive PM.
Click Save and select where you want to download the file.

I had the same problem with my Samsung laptop. I solved the problem by installing the updated IMSM driver package (Intel Matrix Storage Manager) provided by Samsung on its driver download site. During the installation prozess an updated cd-rom driver for the TSST TS-L633B as well as an updated hard disk driver were loaded.

For DELL 1545 Just update to the latest AHCI driver from Intel. It solved the problem right away , pronto!

Go to your Pc "DELL-PC" in my case, go to file and then system properties, then device manager, go to IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers

,go to intel ICH9-E/M SATA AHCI Controller and update software. Place the updated software in a folder you can easily remember it will decompress to a folder named AHCI.

This for Win7 and DELL 1545 laptop. , But you can work out for any other pC laptops and other brands.

If yours is a DELL that has ICH7 or 8 it will not give you this problem due to the idiosync. of WIn 7 or 8. I have another old DELL that was upgraded frpm VISTA Home premium to Win7 it has no problems with the CDRW drive this I found out that it had ICH7 that was upgraded through the installation. happy trying. DO NOT upgrade to a different ICH version I dont know what will happen to your PC maybe it wont bootup.

Reply:

Win7 home is not incompatible with XP mode at all, Microsoft just won't let it run on home edition, it's their way of justifying the extra $ for "higher" editions. The cost of Windows 7 here in New Zealand is astronomical, even for Home Edition. You can get this for around $100 in the States, here it costs $250. And you don't want to know what the "higher" editions cost. It's ridiculous!

At this moment, Visual Studio does not provide support for Java development, so you have to rely on another IDE to develop Java applications.

How to force the Package execution result to SUCCESS in case of failure.

Hello all,

I have created a package in I have used a BULK Import Task which will import the data from CSV file to database.

Now in case if their is error in the data, for eg: mismatch in datatype, then i have used SEND MAIL TASK which will inform the Administrator that their is the error in some rows of the CSV file.

But at last when the package execute and if their is an error in the file related to the datatype then the Package result comes out to be "FAILURE"

but instead of that i want it to SUCCESS.

Please help me out on this problem.

Thanks in advance.

Set the MaximumErrorCount property of the package to a higher number and make sure every task has FailPackageOnFailure/FailParentOnFailure equal to FALSE.

I have tried this scenario in my SSIS package, but by doing this if any error ocurr in any other module for eg: Directory not found

So in that case also my SSIS package return SUCCESS which is wrong.

So, can i do it only to the specific module in SSIS rather than for whole package...?. So that at last the result for the package comes out to be SUCCESS.

I assume the Send Mail Task is in the OnError event handler?

Try putting this task not in an event handler, but in the control flow.
Put it after the BULK INSERT task and connect it with a red arrow.

Hello Koen,

I have tried to do what you have suggested , but was failed because SEND MAIL TASK uses the System variables like:

System::ErrorCode, System::ErrorDescription, System::SourceID, Sysytem::SourceDescription.....etc

which will be not available in the same window where BULK INSERT is present, hence the mail will not be fire.

Any other alternative for this problem..?

What if you change the MaximumErrorCount and the FailParentOnFailure/FailPackageOnFailure only on the Bulk Insert task. Does that help?

Pankaj Kumar Yadav-

I've done some research:

once a task failed, the errorcount is incremented and propagated all the way to the package.
Meaning, a task fails --> errorcount for that task is 1, but the errorcount for that package is also 1.

So if you modify the MaximumErrorCount and the FailParentOnFailure/FailPackageOnFailure properties, the package will always succeed or always fail. You cannot make this dependant on one task only.

Hi Pankaj,

You request is cetainly doable.

However, you need to change your design a little bit.

1. you need to put your bulk insert task which might be failure during process into a container (for simple, a sequence container.)

2. you need to make sure that to set your bulk insert, failparentonfailure to FALSE

3. you need to put your email send task into the error event hanlers, while the bulk insert task fais it sends an email.

4. the last but most important, while bulk insert taks is selected, click the system variables, to set the propagate system varialbe onerror to False. (default is true)

I believe this will work.

Cheers,

Aaah, that's right. I vaguely remembered a propagate property, but I couldn't find it while I was creating my test package.

I tested it and it works. But make a good documentation of your package, because you'll change so many default values that the guy after you is going to wonder what the heck is going on :)

Exchange 2010 Storage in a Virtual Envrionment

Hi to all,

just some information around Storage in Virtual Exchange Envrionments:

First, some background. You might be wondering why we don't support running Jetstress
in a virtual machine. The reason is actually quite straightforward. Over the years as we have
worked with customers and partners who were either deploying new hardware for Exchange
or validating Exchange storage solutions in the Exchange Solution Reviewed Program (ESRP),
we saw a number of examples of Jetstress test results where the reported IO latency numbers
were wildly inaccurate. Given the lack of trust in the reported performance metrics, we had to
ensure that Jetstress was not run in this configuration. This resulted in the guidance that customers
deploying on virtual infrastructure should validate storage performance by running Jetstress in the
root rather than in a guest virtual machine. While this was a feasible workaround with Hyper-V, it's
not a realistic solution for other hypervisors.

Just as the Exchange
product has matured, the hypervisor products that some of our customers use to
manage their Exchange infrastructure have matured as well, and we decided that
the time had come to do some new testing and see if those strange performance
results of the past would come to haunt us again. After weeks of automated
testing with multiple hypervisors and well over 100 individual Jetstress tests
completed in various configurations, we've reached a conclusion…

Effective immediately, we
support running the Microsoft Exchange Server Jetstress 2010 tool in virtual
guest instances which are deployed on one of the following hypervisors:

Microsoft
Windows Server 2008 R2 (or newer)
Microsoft
Hyper-V Server 2008 R2 (or newer)
VMware
ESX 4.1 (or newer)
Additionally, we are
removing the restriction in the ESRP v3.0 program on using virtual machines, so
from this point on our storage partners will be able to submit ESRP solutions
for Exchange Server 2010 where the validation testing was performed on a
virtual machine.

As a reminder, the best place to learn about supportability for
Exchange Server 2010 virtualization is on TechNet in the Hardware
Virtualization section of the System Requirements topic.
Additionally, we have published a Best Practices for Virtualizing Exchange Server 2010 with Windows Server 2008 R2 Hyper-V
whitepaper that contains many helpful deployment recommendations.
The best resource for understanding how to properly use Jetstress for storage and
solution validation is the Jetstress Field Guide, which has been recently updated to include this change to our
support for guest virtual machines.

How many DNS server is holding our AD-integrated DNS zone ? which DNS server is problematic new joined member server using ? have we checked record in that ?

Meanwhile, if we assign address or other network entries for member host statically then have we also set a correct DNS suffix and allow it to registry with DNS server that it is point to in TCP/IP properties ? could you show us the "ipconfig /all" result from this member host here ?

What if we manually register that by running command "ipconfig /registerdns" ?

For receive location you need to configure atleast the value of these properties:

Schedule e.g. Timely Schedule
AfterGet - Delete/Rename
File Mask - e.g. *.txt
SSH Host - Host Name
SSH Port - Pot no default is 22
SSH Remote path
SSH User
SSH Identityfile or SSH Password

For send port you need to configure atleast the value of these properties:

SSH Host
SSH Port
SSH Remote path
SSH Remote file name
SSH User
SSH Identityfile or SSH Password

Thanks for the Response.

It looks Similar to the configuration of the FTP Port.

do we need to install and configure the Tunnelier to verify the connection to the adapter.

I just need to know the flow of the operations that is to be happened in the SFTP Receive/Send Adapter if using the Tunnelier.

You don't need Tunnelier for the working of SFTP adapter that tool is required for testing e.g. to check the connectivity with SFTP server, to drop the files on SFTP server so that SFTP receive adapter can pick these, to check if the file has been successfully transferred to SFTP server by SFTP send adapter.

CM07 client Group Policy deployment for Wintel Servers x86/x64

Dear all,

I'm about to deploy SCCM client to customer Wintel servers. Business requirement for is software asset management,inventory & patch management. No package deployment to servers is intended so far.

Servers don't have any existing SMS client installed on them. Objective would be to install SCCM client with customised setup options once. By researching various methods available I could see following can be used:

1. Client Push.
2. Software updates.
3. Group policy deployment.

May you please shed light on using Group policy deployment of SCCM client...its pros and cons..any helpful tips? Thanks.

Regards,
Shahzad.

Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the default programs control panel. I am trying to open it to get to program files. I can open it on the left side but when I try to open program files it says the same thing. Can somerone tell me what the default program and icon is?

Hi,

What type of adapter are you using? Do you see anything in the eventlog apart from this. Can you give the complete error in the event log like the event id and the process which is throwing the error.

Slow startup - stuck on logon screen

My start-up is extremely long - what I noticed is happening that I get to the initial slide screen but cannot use the screen for 2-4 minutes to reveal the log on screen (username and password). Is this just one of those quirks with the Consumer Preview or is there actually something I can do or forward to Microsoft?

Use the Windows Performance Recorder from the ADK:

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w8itproperf/thread/15334e89-1030-42a8-b999-66830aad3cef/#472a42c7-d5ad-417e-a7fe-ff7c0d8cb7ea

and make a trace. Compress the trace as 7z or RAR and upload the trace.

compress it before uploading. 7z (ULTRA, LZMA2) dramatically reduce the size!

Disable network browing via GPO in Windows 7.

Hello!

Hope everyone is doing great.

Would request for an assistance, i have recently upgraded my DC from windows 2003 to 2008 and Client PCs from XP to Windows 7. Want to restrict user to access any network component by browsing or accessing using \\servername etc. Please suggest.

Many Thanks.

Thanks! Ahin

Hi,

I think that you have to deal with some firewall rules on the server when you want to prevent to users to access the server via UNC (\\servername).

Please take a look at this for more information:

Hi,

Thanks for the responce but if i have disabled the firewall access for all computers, cannot this be used other wise. Similar to we had setting for Windows XP.

Thanks! Ahin

Hello,

this should be achieved with GPOs but therefore please ask in http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/winserverGP/threads?page=1

Be aware that disabling browsing with the \\servername may result in problems with connectivity within the domain as DCs MUST be accessible for the NETLOGON and SYSVOL shares.

As small option you may also disable with GPO accees to the command prompt and the RUN line.

Hyper-V host requiring multiple IP subnets

We have a two node cluster that originally was set to one subnet ending with 24 and 136. We migrated all our windows apps successfully. Now we have started migrating our CentOS apps. Those with 24 and 136 are working great. However one web app has a different ending 77. We've been able to ping the host using the new IP, but we are not able to ping the web app. We have 4 Vlan assignments within the host. We've assigned the 36 and 124 to one of the VMs. We tried doing this with the new IP but it didn't work, so now we are trying a direct IP connect between the application and the Internet. Any suggestions?

I'm just wondering if there is anyway of assigning a VLan# to a specific defined IP.

Hi Jenshadus

Hope you're well. Virtual networks are described here

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc816585(v=ws.10).aspx

You assign VLAN#'s to interfaces, not to IP addresses. The first thing to verify would be whether or not you can ping the default gateway from the affected hosts (that's assigned to your VLAN77).

If the ping succeeds it's not likely an issue with your vlan/ip configuration on the VM or in Hyper-V (but perhaps another issue e.g. DNS/routing)

Let me know if you need any further clarification. If it's still not working, we may need further detail (IP addresses, VLANs, network overview etc).

>> What did you mean by this? Did you an IP range such as 192.168.1.24 to 192.168.1.136?

By the way, please provide your network topology and networking settings in details, both on virtual machine and Hyper-V host machine. Thanks for your understanding.
