FYI
Windows Activated - but Action Center had remained red on need to complete Windows Activation. I discovered that only when I just had to use Action Center now. Windows was activated weeks ago.
To fix - I had to follow the prompt in Action Center - and go from here to Windows Activation - which stated Windows was (already) Activated.
After that Action Center removed its promp for activation.

Setting registry key via group policy to execute a logOFF script for any user
As you all know setting group policy logoff script registry keys directly will not work and this has to be done via group policy. I cant use gpedit.msc as I need to automate this during 1 click install through a script.
Can you guys help with a script which adds logoff script entries in to registries via group policy ?

Determine When Users Have Changed Their BPOS-S Password - All Users Must Change BEFORE BPOS Transition
As your BPOS company comes closer to being Transitioned into Office 365, each online company administrator must verify that each of their users have changed their passwords, in order to synchronize these passwords into Office 365. Doing this will assure that once the company is transitioned, the users will use the same password in the new Office 365 environment.
To help Online Administrators, they should first download the latest Microsoft Mailbox Transporter Tool, which includes updated PowerShell scripts, which can be used to query (Get-MSOnlineUser) BPOS-S for user password changes, allowing you to determine which users have not changed their password. You can then reach out to them and ask for them to change OR you can use the Set-MSOnlineUser command to set a password for them, which will then be synchronized into Office 365!
Resources:
- Download the latest Microsoft Transporter Suite Tool: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displayLang=en&id=5015

Any ideas?
Thank you,

Sorry Ted, I completely forgot the -Password command :-) So once you issue a -Set-MSOnlineUserPassword you must use the -Password command which sets the user's password to something. Using the additional -ChangePasswordOnNextLogon $True, this obviously forces the user to change it before they can login. You could leave the past part off and just tell all the users their password is "xxx" and since the password was set, it WILL be synchronized into Office 365 and be ready for use for these users. of course if they change it to something else, that password will be synchronized into 365 and be used post-transition. Up to you on how you want to use this....sorry about the missing piece :-)
Example for determining which users have not changed their BPOS-S password since December 1, 2011. You can use this example PowerShell script once you updated your Microsoft Online Transporter Suite and can modify either the date range or any of the other conditions/parameters to meet your needs:
Find All Users Who Have Not Changed Passwords Since 12/1/2011 and Change Password to "P@ssw0rd1" and Force to Change at Next Logon
$Cred = Get-Credentials [enter your BPOS Administrator account credentials]
Get-MSOnlineUser -Credential $Cred -enabled | where {$_.PasswordLastSetDate –lt “12/1/2011”} | Set-MSOnlineUserPassword -Password "P@ssw0rd1" –Credential $Cred –ChangePasswordOnNextLogon $true
The above will query the BPOS Microsoft Online Directory Services (MSODS) for users who have NOT changed their password since December 1st, 2011. Anyone in this PowerShell (in-memory) list will then be piped to the Set-MSOnlineUserPassword and change these users passwords to "P@ssw0rd1" and instruct MSODS to force the user to change their password during their next login. Of course you will need to tell these users that their password has changed to P@ssw0rd1, as they will need this to change their password!
Note - If you want to run the following, it will give you the list, and then you can run the full command to set the password for these users. This way you will have a list of people that you need to contact with their new password:
GET LIST OF USERS WHO HAVE NOT CHANGED THEIR PASSWORDS SINCE DECEMBER 1, 2011
$Cred = Get-Credentials [enter your BPOS Administrator account credentials]
Get-MSOnlineUser -Credential $Cred -enabled | where {$_.PasswordLastSetDate –lt “12/1/2011”} | FL Identity
Note - In order to use the above updated Get-MSOnlineUser cmdlets you must upgrade your BPOS Mail Migration machine to use the latest Migration Tool. If you have downloaded and attempted to update/upgrade your older Migration Tool application, you may find errors when issuing the Get-MSOnlineUser command. Please refer to the following post, which explains how to resolve this issue: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/bpostransition/thread/312cdddf-d20a-404b-8f1f-275f52cd75cd

If I run the following command as you have listed, will this suffice in triggering the Office 365 Migration?
And what if the user has not logged in yet to change the password before the migration?
Also, what if I just set the password and set require "ChangePasswordOnNextLogon $false", will this be enough to trigger/complete the migration process without having to login to the new Office 365 portal for my end users?
Find All Users Who Have Not Changed Passwords Since 12/1/2011 and Change Password to "P@ssw0rd1" and Force to Change at Next Logon

Sal,
As long as the password is modified, whether by the user or by a powershell cmdlet, the password is then synced to O365.
If a user does not log in prior to the transition, it will not affect anything as long as the password has not expired in O365 (90 days after being set/changed). If the user doesn't have their BPOS password post-transition, they won't be able to log into the Sign in Client (SIC) and have their Outlook profile automatically redirected to O365. This will mean you will need to remove the registry keys put in place by the SIC, manually, as well as manually reconfigure the Outlook profile (unless you want to create a NEW profile and redownload all email again).
Have a great day,
Dan

Is the password change just for users who have passwords that are about to expire? I changed my BPOS password about a month ago and can currently login to Office365 with that password. Is it necessary for me to change my password?
Thanks,
John

EVERY user needs to change their password once since, basically, January 1st of this year. They will also need to make sure their passwords don't expire during the transition period so that they can login to the BPOS Sign in client (SIC) at least once post-transition, for the mailbox reconfiguration to point their profile to O365.
Have a great day,

Hi all, I found out an interesting tidbit on using these PowerShell commands and wanted to let everyone know what I found:
For BPOS administrators who like to use PowerShell, specifically for password management, you may have found that certain PowerShell commands work while others do not. Specifically there are different parameters that can be used to check for whether a user has changed their Password since xx/xx/xxxx and perform certain tasks, such as setting the password and/or forcing the user to change their password at next logon.
For example, if you use the following command you will find that the PowerShell command states that the parameter -Password is missing and must be included in order to properly run:
Failure
- Get-MSOnlineUser -Identity testuser@domain.com | Set-MSOnlineUserPassword -ChangePasswordOnNextLogon $true
However if you run the Set-MSOnlineUserPassword separately you CAN use the -ChangePasswordOnNextLogon without needing to use the -Password parameter, thereby not needing to change the password, but instead simply force the user to change the password the next time they login to BPOS Services:
Success
- Set-MSOnlineUserPassword -identity testuser@domain.com -ChangePasswordOnNextLogon $true
So if you simply need to force users to change their password at next logon, use the above PowerShell command against BPOS. However if need to change the users password in addition to forcing a password change, the Get & Set commands can be used together to perform this task. Just make sure you use the -Password parameter when performing this particular task.
Hope this helps clarify what parameters are required and when to use one over another.

Well, you could 'hide' it.. and this really *is* hiding it and not removing it - and is very much a hack in my mind - but...
there are two css classes
.newListViewSearchMode
.searchModeToggleImage
That control the visual appearance of those UI elements. You could alter those in the FIM theme to make them 'invisible'. It would be quite interesting to see the reaction of someone accidentally clicking in the contol area however :)
If you're really woried about people viewing things outside of the search scopes you defined, use a less permissive MPR to limit access to the 'undesired' objects and you're much more protected.

Please Kill Desktop
Hello,
What is the point of the "Desktop" app? Why do programs need to launch in it? This is a horrible development.
Please kill the desktop app. Simply make the Start screen the desktop and be done with it.
Here is how it should work: If I launch Excel, simply launch Excel in a window. There is absolutely no need to launch Desktop then launch Excel. Then I would also be able to have Excel on 1/2 of my screen and see my live tiles updating in the other half and displaying information that I can use. Currently if I am actually performing work all the live tiles are hidden from view and essentially useless.
As part of killing off Desktop you also need to add in a minimize and close button on the corner of apps. It is far to difficult to close an app, especially on touch screens. Having to drag an app to the tray to close it simply takes to long.

Why would you want to be limited to a single Excel Window via the Metro interface? You realize you can't window metro applications, and you certainly can't window then to fill 1/2 of the screen. You also cannot display Metro on multiple monitors. Running Excel in the Start Screen would seriously cripple Excel.
Some brilliant people at Microsoft designed it to be that way based on some unknown user groups that said so.

Some may have misunderstood your comments. I would try to provide an answer that may not be wholly satisfactory but represents what Win8 can and cannot do. The Start Screen is not really "Windows" as you knew it. It represents a very different application model layer (I did post a schematic in another thread) and applications running in it are supported by the WinRT API (which is fully compatible with the Win8 running in ARM processors, a version officially known as Windows RT). To get the full functionality of the desktop which is backwards compatible with all previous Win32-based versions of Windows, you have to go to the desktop.
Win8 is in fact, a "hybrid" OS, merging the attributes and properties of a "portable" OS (such as Android or iOS) with those a "desktop" OS. It works for some but not for others, I guess. I find it an amazingly bad compromise and a cynical ploy for Microsoft to intersect itself in the mobile consumer market, but this is just me. As you have seen here, there are others that are "enamored" with change (for change's sake).
So, in short, unless Microsoft totally recodes Win8, your request is impossible. You have to live within the limitations/capabilities of this OS, or, if you wish, remain with Win7. In fact, if you want to run desktop applications why did you even bother "upgrading" (sidegrading or downgrading work equally well here) to Win8? Were there any specific advantages that you wished to obtain?

Software is simply code and should make it simple and easy for users. There does not seem to be a logical reason that Microsoft could not launch Desktop app's in a Window in the Metro UI. If they need the Desktop Code, fine, but hide the experience from the user so that it is seamless. A user doesn't care about the difference between RT, desktop, metro and the rest - they simply want their user experiences to be easy and that is not what Microsoft has supplied. Forcing a user to constantly switch to/from Metro every time they want to launch a new app is pointless and frustrating.
I suppose that if Microsoft is going to remove the windowing feature from their OS then they should stop calling it "Windows".
Also, you can install Office 2013 now if you want - there is not a Metro version of any the 2013 Office products. That means that a Metro version would not be forthcoming until at least 2016 at which point we will be seeing Windows 9.

Some very good points but here is the answer:
(a) The public schematics for Win8 (they are conjectures, MS has not released its own), indicate that the Start Screen cannot support desktop programs and one has to travel back and forth. Although I do take your point that "software is just code" and that it should be "easy for users", the fact remains that Win8 would need to be re-done to offer a unitary experience. This is not happening now.
(b) Even if Microsoft can retool everything, it does not want to. It wants users to have to be exposed to the "joys of Metro/Modern" and live in the Start Screen as much as possible as they can buy there apps from the Microsoft store (the walled garden of Metro delights). Thus, there are many reasons for Microsoft to retain the experience as it is today. User convenience does not figure in this calculation. Microsoft fully accepts the notion that the desktop experience has been partly degraded. Win8 was not supposed to be a "desktop" oriented OS anyway. Users should not buy it and install it if they want a pure desktop experience. For that, they should try to remain with Win7. I am not sure how long downgrade rights would be available, but my guess that they would be available as long as there is a good number of users demanding them.
(c) Even if there is a Metro version of Office 2013, would you want it? Would you want a complex computing experience moved into the simplistic "portable" experience? It would mean limited multitasking and no-windowing at all. In addition, the design guidelines for Metro would eliminate much of the visible command structure and one would have to menus "in depth". More clicks would be necessary to achieve the same result. Considering the fact that all current portable OSes (iOS, Android) have access to office suits that can open all the Office files, what would be the utility of "shrinking" Office for the Metro environment? More sales for Microsoft, possibly. But none in usability terms.
Thus, one needs to see Win8 for what it is. It may have specific utility in tablets (which remains to be seen) but at the desktop its utility is dubious.

User List

Course Name
Course Level
Filter values:

Level 2 then HIDE Level 3
No Hide on Level 3 since Level 3 should see all.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Reply:
Ultimately it would be:
Hide if [Course Level] is Greater than [User Level]...
I know in the conditional formmating area if I select the item in the row I can get the first two values of [Course Level] Is Greater Than... but I cannot figure out how to get [User Level] as the area to pull the filter value from.
So I guess my quesiton is really how would I create a Parameter that would reference the USER LIST:USER LEVEL ?

Is your server SBS and if so what version?
Is your DHCP server 2008 or 2008 R2?
If so, check the cleint configuration and ensure that for both ipv4 and ipv6 that the DNS servers are configured by the DHCP lease.

In my case, DHCP for v4 and v6 is enabled and both Scopes have Search List enabled and identical, but still does not work. Same results on WIN7 or Server2008R2. In both cases, the "Search List" setting in the registry fixes the issue, however this is not a good work-aroun as it potentially requires multiple GPO's for different scopes in different child domains. WHy does the DHCP Search list not work?

For those that want to use the registry fix fo the "Search List", enter the domain search list under the 'Paramaters' key as a value for the DWORD:SearchList.
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\TcpIP\Parameters\SearchList; values: domain1.local, domain2.local, etc...
Do the same with the ..\Services\TcpIP6\Paramater\SearchList key

how to retrieve image from library to info path.
Hi all,
I am having a SharePoint 2010 document library which contains images. Those are Certification images. I am having a multiple choice Control on my info path form. When Someone click on Sales force or Java respective image has to display.
I use hard coaded images and apply rules. that work fine but how to retrive those images from library.
Please give me a work around for this.
Thanks in Advance.

You can use a hyperlink for this, so as long as you have the hyperlink to each image, you can accomplish this.
- Add a hyperlink field to your image library, and each hyperlink just has to be a hyperlink to the image itself.
- Pull that hyperlink field into InfoPath in a data connection to the pic library.
- From the data source pane on the right, right-click on the Hyperlink field, and choose Picture.

Storage Services: Differences in ATA, SATA, SCSI, & Fibre Channel
- Using WINSERVER2012 RC 8400
- Abit IP35PRO XE Motherboard w Intel Core2 Quad Q9450
- OS is installed on an SSD connected via SATA cable to SATA II port on motherboard.
- 1 Supermicro 8-Port SATA Card - AOC-SAT2-MV8 - connected via PCI1 slot
- 1 Highpoint 8-port SATA Card - RocketRaid 1820A - connected via PCI2 slot.
- 1 500GB Seagate SATA HD connected to each SATA card, total = 2 HD with 1TB storage.
In Storage Services:
- the HD connected to the AOC-SAT2-MV8 displays its BUS as Fibre Channel
- the HD connected to the RocketRaid displays its BUS as SATA
- the SSD connected to the SATA II port on motherboard displays its BUS as ATA.
In the system BIOS, all the drives appear as SCSI devices. Therefore, I was expecting all three interfaces to display the BUS as either SCSI or SATA. Can anyone explain to me why the motherboard shows ATA and one of the cards shows Fibre Channel?? No where in the product docs for the AOC-SAT2-MV8 does it even mention the word Fibre.
Thanks!

I made a similar observation here: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/winserver8gen/thread/578a4c17-ed61-4d1a-837b-bdde46f2e7fe
My Supermicro AOC-SASLP-MV8 disks appear as RAID, but they are SATA disks on a PCIe SAS controller (no RAID functionality is available)
My RAIDCore disks appear as Fibre Channel (this is a PCIe RAID controller)
My motherboard disks (with the Supermicro BIOS set to Intel RAID mode) appear as RAID - probably correct

Thanks for the info David:
In your post, you mentioned a Supermicro AOC-SASLP-MV8 (with 8 SATA ports on PCIe for $100). Do you think this card would make a good replacement for my AOC-SAT2-MV8 card? You said the drives display as RAID - does it say they are on a shared bus? I would like to set up a cluster between two machines running WINSERVER2012 RC 8400 - if I purchased two identical AOC-SAT2-MV8 cards and installed one card in each machine, do you think I'll be able to set up a cluster?
Thanks
------------------------------------
Reply:
The AOC-SASLP-MV8 (3Gb, $100) and its replacement AOC-SAS2LP-MV8 (6Gb, $200) are both straight SAS PCIe cards, vs. the AOC-SAT2-MV8 (SATA). I don't know if they support shared SAS storage, but they may well do.
However, you will not be able to use Storage Spaces clustered storage without all the pieces being SAS dual-path: dual-port SAS disks, dual SAS connections (through expanders if necessary) to the disks, and a SAS PCIe card in each server for each path. SATA disks are just single port so won't work.
I am only using SATA disks, with reverse breakout cables to SAS backplanes with individual connections. I am not using SAS expanders, dual connections, or dual-port SAS disks. For me, these cards were just the cheapest way of adding 16x SATA disks over 2x PCIe slots. I am then using Storage Spaces to provide software RAID5 on a single server.
I have successfully tested the Starwind HA iSCSI target to then provide shared iSCSI storage on top of two separate DAS arrays and servers for a cluster witness and a CSV for shared storage. You can then run SOFS on top of this (in VMs, to avoid the Hyper-V loopback issue), and finally use SOFS as an SMB3 target for VMs. A total HA solution done with just two physical servers and no physical shared storage.

It's up to driver what bus type to report (see below). It's not a big deal to report FC for SATA or SCSI for say USB: whole Windows storage stack talks SCSI and only lowest driver in the stack provides a convertion from SCSI to device-specific command set.
//// Define the different storage bus types
// Bus types below 128 (0x80) are reserved for Microsoft use
//
typedef enum _STORAGE_BUS_TYPE {
BusTypeUnknown = 0x00,
BusTypeScsi,
BusTypeAtapi,
BusTypeAta,
BusType1394,
BusTypeSsa,
BusTypeFibre,
BusTypeUsb,
BusTypeRAID,
BusTypeiScsi,
BusTypeSas,
BusTypeSata,
BusTypeSd,
BusTypeMmc,
BusTypeVirtual,
BusTypeFileBackedVirtual,
BusTypeMax,
BusTypeMaxReserved = 0x7F
} STORAGE_BUS_TYPE, *PSTORAGE_BUS_TYPE;
Hope this helped :)

Errata for 70-642 Self-Paced Training Kit, 2nd Edition
I just received another email from O'Reilly informing me of the September 2012 reprint of the 2nd Edition of the 70-642 Self-Paced Training Kit. This reprint corrected numerous reported errata.
However, unless you have the most recent reprint edition of this book, your text will not have the corrected errata, so here are the errata on the oreilly.com site.
Better yet, you can buy the 70-642 Training Kit as an e-book from oreilly.com, and you will always be informed when a corrected reprint is released so you can download it for free.
I hope you find this information useful.
Exchange 2007 peer mail servers

I thought the same thing. I am setting up AVST's CallXpress Unified Messaging and documentation mentioned Exchange peer mail servers and I could not find anything and thought well AVST has its own terminology which they need to articulate in their documentation
thanks for quick response
------------------------------------
Reply:
They are UM specific terminologies.
VMSC - VMD - Messaging - Servers Tab
Use the Messaging dialog box, Servers tab to view a list of the Modular Messaging servers and primary peer Exchange servers for a voice mail domain. The peer server is the message store server that MASs communicate with when sending and receiving voice messages.
Understanding Peer Servers
When initially installed, an MAS is configured to have a single Microsoft Exchange server handle message storage and processing for subscribers. This Exchange server is known as the primary peer server. Each MAS in the system configuration has an assigned primary peer server, though all MASs may share the same primary peer server.
You can identify and configure additional peer servers within the voice mail domain that can handle messaging on behalf of subscribers, if the primary peer server fails. Thus, if the primary peer server for an MAS fails, the MAS can search for another peer server to allow messaging to continue. Each MAS in the system is assigned its own list of non-primary peer servers for backup relief.

How to get Live performance usage of VM's hosted in Hyper V by using SCOM
Hey guyz, we have a Hyper -V host with lot of VM's hosted in it.
We have SCVMM to manage the Hyper -V,
and we also have SCOM integrated with SCVMM.
Im completely new to this scenario, and i got the task of getting VM's Live Performance Details like CPU Usage, Network Usage,Disk Read and Write, Memory usage. Can anyone guide me how to achieve it.
and one more thing, all of these things i need to do using C#,
Please help me guyz, im totally blind in this scenario.
- Moved by Daniele Muscetta Wednesday, September 12, 2012 3:49 PM Not an APM question - potentially related to VMM integration. (From:Operations Manager - Application Performance Monitoring (APM))
Reply:
Hi,
From APM (Application Performance Monitoring) standpoint, - and currently you're asking the question in this branch, - you may achieve the information you're looking for by collecting APM statistics.
In this case you need to push SCOM 2012 Agent to each server you want to monitor (APM Agent will be deployed there automatically, if there is no Intercept Agent 5.7 installed), to configure APM monitoring, to enable System Center Management APM service and to check out statistics you get in AppDiagnostics. The statistics packages are sent automatically on time interval regardless monitoring apps activity.
Here is the blog article how to enable APM monitoring in SCOM 2012 (it's written for RC, but still actual for RTM):
http://www.viacode.com/blog/blog/2011/12/15/.net-avicode-apm-monitoring-in-scom-2012-rc-quick-look
On the other hand I believe you may grab all those metrics by creating regular SCOM rules separately to APM monitoring. In this case it's better to ask the question on general SCOM forum.

Syed,
albeit this is the forum on application performance monitoring, you should really be leveraging the Operations Manager and VMM integration. But this is not the right forum for that and the solution suggested by Igor is sub-optimal for this scenario.
There is plenty of information on the web http://www.bing.com/search?q=monitoring+hyper-v+scom and there are more specific forums even on the "general" forums i.e. http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/operationsmanagergeneral/threads or http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/virtualmachinemanager
There is another thread I am aware of, which I also moved recently to another forum that was mis-posted here, which is kind of related http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/operationsmanagerextensibility/thread/52e85ff2-d368-43fc-8d06-0668500db20a
For this reason, I am also going ahead and moving this thread to OPSMGR - General.
