ShaerPoint Workspace comes bundled with the Microsoft Office 2010 Professional Plus version. I think you can also buy it as a standalone product without the other Office tools.

Round Number to the closest bigger Number in SSRS 2008
I have some values like 12345. I would like to round this number to 13000. I am going to use them in the chart axis for more readable interval.
How can I do that?
Here are some example:
124567 Round to : 125000
123 Round to 150 or 200

Hi,
If you want to round up the numbers to the level of hudreds, then its better to do in the below way.
Cint(Left(Field.Value,1)) * Power(Count(Field.Value-1)) + (Cint(left(field.Value,2)) + 1) * Power(10,(Count(Field.Value)-2))
The above expression gives for ex number is : 423456
Cint(Left(Field.Value,1)) = 4, Power(Count(Field.Value-1))=100000
so the multiplication gives 400000
(Cint(left(field.Value,2)) + 1) = 3, Power(10,(Count(Field.Value)-2))=10000
So multiplication gives 30000.
Now the sum of both gives 430000. Which is round figure of 423456.

Hi Raksah,
Are you looking for the 32 bit version of the Lync Server ?
Or only the client software that connect to the Lync server?
As with all Microsoft product, there are no 32 bit version of Server version.
The URL that you copied is for the 32 bits client software...not the server.
So Lync Server 2010 is 64 bits flavor only.

Migration
I have a related question, regarding my home environment.
As an AD guy, I naturally am running my own domain with several DCs (mostly virtual). I'm also running WHS (the original) for backups, remote access, etc. By its nature, it's not the domain so I'm using shadow accounts...a less than optimal solution. I'd love to replace it with the more capable WS2012E.
WS2012E supports a domain, supports migration...but I'm suspecting it won't support what I'm looking for: Joining a pre-existing domain that DOESN'T have an SBS as a source server? I'm okay with moving the FSMO roles to the WS2012E server once joined to my domain. But it looks like it's locked into the "migrate from SBS" scenario?
Thanks,
Sean

On this first go-round, my assumption is that if I do a clean install it will attempt to set up its own domain (rather than have an option to join an existing domain); the installation option for Clean Install explicitly says "...if you do not have an existing Windows domain."
I chose the migration option because it at least explicitly allows you to join a domain. Unfortunately, this is what I run into:
It's looking for a source server, which as far as I can tell is supposed to be an SBS.
It'd be overkill to set up a forest trust between these two domains...and I'll bet a nickel you aren't allowed to do that anyway.

You were correct, it proceeded with any DC. But it failed in the FSMO role transfer section because it couldn't resolve the PDC master. Probably due to name resolution failures because my secondary DCs go up and down like rabbits:
I think I'll try the FSMO role transfer, etc. in a separate test domain before I go much further. Stay tuned :-).

For the migration scenarios, windows server 2012 Essentials expects the source server is a GC and with all FSMO Roles on it. It doesn't have to be SBS.
for the above error, you should bring the source server back to available. And click retry button. It doesn't need to do it from the beginning.

Okay, thanks. I hedged my bets for the migration and pointed the Essentials servers to a DC that didn't hold the roles - and disabled inbound replication to the roles holder with REPADMIN /OPTIONS <DC> +DISABLE_INBOUND_REPL just in case Essentials was doing something to the domain I wasn't happy with, would have done /SHOMETA to look at the changes.

converting server 2003 R2 SP2 x64 to a Hyper V vm in Server 2008 R2 SP1
Im having a bear of time doing a P2V server 2003 x64. In the past, I used Disk2vhd, but install the guest services before hand. With this, I get the "error starting operating system" even if I do a repair install on the vhd. I know the scvmm is what is the recommended solution, but I just want to make my intentions clear here; I dont need scvmm for anything other than the single conversion. In most cases, i will be taking a small LAN, one DC and converting to Hyper V vm (too many good reasons to list) and having to have multiple servers to do the conversion process isnt in the cards. I want to be able to convert to vhd, load 2008R2 with Hyper V or Hyper V server on the same source server hardware and then start the vhd and continue on. In this case, I will be upgrading from 2003 to 2008, but want to do the upgrade as a vm, not a physical machine (again, too many good reasons to list).
Soo., how does a guy convert a server 2003 R2 x64 SP1 server to a 2008 R2 SP1 Hyper V guest VM...without having to have a separate server with scvmm, and another with the hyper v client on? I want to just convert to vhd (sent to either an external hdd or network share) and then rebuild source machine as the hyper v host.
Seems that MS has nothing documented that I can find regarding P2V conversion on a small business scale, and not a large enterprise level operation.
Much appreciate any assistance.

Hi!
Disk2VHD is usually what I use when all else fails. I seriously recommend that you consider installing SP2 on your server 2003 machine before converting. If memory serves me correct, VSS was first included then and, if I recall correct, it's neccessary in order to perform a online P2V migration.
You can download the SCVMM 180-day trial and install as a VM to perform the conversion, but Disk2VHD should really be sufficient.
Once again, I could be wrong since I never had any 2003 x64 servers, but 2003 + SP2 is my recommendation.
------------------------------------
Reply:
Hi,
If you asked here, the answer is SCVMM or disk2vhd. You may try some third-party tools also.
By the way, please update the computer to Windows Server 2003 R2 with Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2003 R2 with Service Pack 1 is not a supported guest operating system on Hyper-V.
For more information, you can refer to:
Virtualization with Hyper-V: Supported Guest Operating Systems
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2008/en/us/hyperv-supported-guest-os.aspx
In addition, P2V is not always a good idea to migrate the existing services. Sometimes you can create a new VM, and then migrate the services to it.

Sorry, But it was a typo...the server is 2003 x64 R2 SP2 Enrerprise edition. Server is up to date.
Being that this server is owned by a not for profit group and they have a shoe string IT budget, building new and transfering would eat up some serious hours. I will be migrating them to 2008, but they have exchange as well as numerous DB's. if it was a simple dc that was part of a group of servers, sure, but this is the whole enchalada.
As oulined, the plan is to just get to vm, and then upgrade in place. as a vm, its a safer way to be.
------------------------------------
Reply:
If you're recieving an error when you boot the migrated VM, this usually means that the OS is configured to boot from a storage or RAID controller that requires drivers. The boot partition information will be false since Hyper-V boot all VM's on a IDE controller.
You could try to boot your VM with the Server 2003 (with slipstreamed SP2) installation CD or ISO to see if it detects a currently installed OS, and if it does, repair it.
------------------------------------
Reply:
i have tried the recovery as suggested. it boots from cd, sees the os, deletes files, loads files, saves config and then when it reboots, it errors out. I have done this 3 times to make sure all is correct.
I have not tried recovery console with fixmbr or fixboot, as I read its useless. I will try and let you know (only thing i didnt try so far.
The Hyper V settings are as follows:
Boot from CD>IDE
2 CPU
Mem=Dynamic with 4096 min 8192max
IDE >vhd file image created by disk2vhd
Nic (synthetic) not connected
All services
------------------------------------
Reply:
In the meantime, I'll throw some thoughts:
How does the message appear and does it say anything else? Will it attempt to boot and then show a bluescreen or doesn't it boot at all?
Were there any application bundled drivers installed on the source machine that would appear in the add/remove programs list?
Is the c: drive larger than 127GB?
------------------------------------
Reply:
C is >50GB. Error is right away, no bsob, just "error loading operating system"
No app bundled drivers...but those should be stripped off during repair...any other thoughts?
------------------------------------
Reply:
Could it be that the master boot record holds the wrong boot partition information after all?
Just a thought, could you please mount the vhd in the host disk manager, open the boot.ini file located in the disk root directory with notepad, and post what it says? (It's a hidden file)
A 2003 x86 VM's default boot.ini file would look like this:
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Windows Server 2003, Enterprise" /noexecute=optout /fastdetect
If the boot information differs from this, means that the OS location was written during the P2V and survived the repair installation.
------------------------------------
Reply:
the boot.ini looks right:
[boot loader]
timeout=1

but i am wondering....when i did the repair, it found the previous install of windows and listed it as "disk2vhd windows server....edition"
thoughts?
I did
run fix boot and fixmbr as well.
------------------------------------
Reply:
Well, to be honest I'm running out of ideas.
What if you mount the VHD in the disk manager -> open an elevated command prompt -> run DISKPART -> select virtual disk + partition -> use the ACTIVE command ?
In that way, not only does the disk hold a boot record and OS, but we've also made sure that the partition itself is bootable.
------------------------------------
Reply:
When its mounted in disk manager you can see that its active and healthy boot partition. I just want to summarize the steps I have taken, and if you know of a posting that shows the MS supported method for conversion that doesnt involve scvmm and some servers I dont have, i would love to read it.
Step 1: defrag
2: Stop the Exchange Information Store
3: Verify no one is using shares ( i do the image grab after hours)
4: Use disk2vhd 1.63 with the "prepare for vm" checked
5: Send image to usb external hdd
6: Import hdd into my server back at our office ( I have to find a successful migration path before I can take them down again)
7: Copy VHD file from hdd to my array for my hyper V guests
Set the following settings:
2 CPU
4096 starting mem to 8196 max
vhd mounted
I have tried a repair installation, and it goes through the process until it does the first reboot and then same "error loading operating system". I have done a console boot with fixboot and fixmbr
I've tried to boot with all integrated services off as well, same result. As soon as the Hyper V grey splash screen goes by, I get "Error loading operating system_" with the cursor on the ned flashing.
I really need to get this going. As an MS partner, what else are my support options for resolution on this? I have another post regarding in place upgrade of server 2003 and its just stale with no resolution, I hope this doesnt go the same route
Much appreciate the assistance I have received up to this point.

4: Use disk2vhd 1.63 with the "prepare for vm" checked
I'm looking at Disk2vhd v1.63 on my Win7 machine right now. I don't see the "prepare for vm" checkbox, I can't recall ever seeing it on an older OS and quite frankly, I have no idea what that checkbox would do if I saw it.
Since the IS allegedly installs synthetic IDE drivers, what if you don't install the guest services prior to conversion or any other features or tweaks that might "optimize" the system for virtual environments?

I am trying V converter right now to see if it goes.
at the end of the day, there are still a few MAJOR "oops" that Hyper V has vs VMWare. One is the conversion process and two is com/usb port access for guest OS's.
I still dont see anything short of SCVMM for conversion by MS for MS. Even though Disk2Vhd is done by sysinternals, MS says no support. So, for our busniess, it makes it tough to push MS and Virtualization, as smaller businesses (150 or less users) is our bread and butter, and most have single server enviornments) and I have no documented supported path.

In my case (V2V from VMware Server) the reason was the missing IDE driver.
Here is my solution to get rid of "error loading operating system":
- Uninstall VMware Tools.
- Create and connect any (!) virtual IDE drive to the VM and boot once BEFORE the V2V (or P2V) copy process to have IDE drivers installed already on the source machine.
- Change Intel PCI IDE or any other (booted still within VMware) to "Standard PCI IDE".
- Use msconfig.exe to enable "Detect HAL" (Vista / WinSrv 2008) in Extended Options.
- Use Disk2vhd e. g. to copy C: to a new vhd (e. g. over LAN to the host file system.
Please note: the Hyper-V can only boot from IDE (with 127 GB limit). You may attach further disks on the (virtual) SCSI driver. But during boot there is no SCSI support. This starts with the HyperV Integration Services.
You may attach VHDs to IDE or SCSI. The type is not fixed by the VHD file itself.

I thought the 127 Gbyte limit was only for Virtual PC. I thought the Hyper-V could handle disks bigger than 127 Gbytes. I have exactly the same problem, need to virtualize Server 2003 x64 Enterprise to a Hyper-V environment. I get the same response after DISK2VHD. I have not yet tried using VMware as an intermediary. The C: is 275 Gbytes and I want to grow it to 400 Gbytes after getting it on Hyper-V. This is an Exchange server and I really would like to not rebuild it from scratch as we may be using an ouside service later this year, to host our mail server.

disk2vhd is a VPC tool so it has the same 127G limit.
Another thing you need to know about doing a p2v with 2003 x64 is that there never was a 64-bit driver for the legacy NIC.

Hi,
Hyper-v and VPC virtual machines can't have a use IDE VHD file greater the 127 GB , Microsoft say that this is a limitation to the IDE controller , so what you can do :
1.Move all your data to a second disk say d: ( move all data into a new VHD)
2. Convert your machine to VM where the C:\ is less that 127 GB
3. Create a VHD at any size less that 2TB , attache the new VHD (data VHD) to scsi controler of VM on Hyper-v

Alberni,
Did you ever find a solution to this? I've begun converting a very old HP x86 2003 server with that Disk2VHD, which worked fine in my test case as a virtual pc, going to move on to a Hyper-V Host now. One thing i've noticed, since my server was converted as SP1 first, then updated once virtualized, Yes it worked under SP1, Disk2VHD modified the boot.ini to this:
[boot loader]
timeout=3
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Disk2vhd Windows Server 2003, Standard" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptOut /KERNEL=ntkrpuni.exe /HAL=halacpi.dll
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Windows Server 2003, Standard" /fastdetect /NoExecute=OptOut
Which i found didn't work when trying to apply SP2, so i took the Disk2vhd line out and it all worked fine and integrated well after that.
Hikmat has a good idea for large drive support as well. I have to admit, VMWare has had a much smoother process to this for the last couple years or so.

Transactional Replication From SQL2000 to SQL2012
Hi,
We have an old version of sql 2000 server which currently serves as a publisher to a 2008 R2 subscriber.
We have purchased few licenses for SQL 2012 and testing our applications for that version. I was wondering if we can replicate the data from 2000 to 2012. I tried but while adding a subscriber, it gave me an error saying that the compatibility level is not supported.
Does anybody have an idea if this is possible. I will look into another possibility of replicating from 2000 to 2008 and then from 2008 to 2012 but managing such an architecture is complex and error prone.
Any inputs will be helpful and appreciated.

Update. Although this might not be supported, I could manage sql 2000 as a publisher and 2012 as a subscriber.
The distributor was hosted on 2008 R2 version because the 2000 server had its distributor configured to use 2008 R2 and I was not allowed to change it.

I can tell you it is not supported. The rule for transactional replication is that the distributor has to be the highest build of any of the partners. The publisher should match the distributor if possible and should never be higher.
Rules for the Subscriber vary. The official doc is here (doesn't mention 2012 directly):
Considerations for Upgrading Replicated Databases
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143699(SQL.105).aspx
-
A Subscriber to a transactional publication can be any version within two
versions of the Publisher version. For example: a SQL Server 2000 Publisher
running can have SQL Server 2008 Subscribers; and a SQL Server 2008 Publisher
can have SQL Server 2000 Subscribers. -
A Subscriber to a merge publication can be any version less than or equal to
the Publisher version.
For a Read-Only Transactional publication, you can get away with having a subscriber that is almost any version. After all, it just sits there and takes changes. That being said, you shouldn't plan on putting anything in production that violates the rules in the above doc.

Remember you can always increase from Standard to Enterprise at a later time. So if you determine later that you would like some of the Enterprise class features, such as Excel Services, InfoPath Services, Filter Web Parts, Chart Web Parts (or Business Data Web Parts) PerformancePoint Services, or Access Services, then you can enable those features at a later time after purchasing licensing.
Additionally, if you find that you only need some features, like Filter Web parts and charting, you can purchase those from an Independent Software Vendor (ISV) and save a significant amount of money. You could also develop solutions in house if you have the talent.
Every business is different. It is hard to make a recommendation without knowing your business needs.
Good luck with your deployment!

Windows 2008 R2 vs. usernames
I have just converted to win 7 stations 2008r2 domain (from w xp + 2003r2). But the shock! Windows NT 4.0, how long has it been? We got rid of 8.3 filenames, we advanced a lot. Yet, we still use pre-win2000 names! Ok, I would not say a word should it be for compatibility. But, try for yourself - redirected folders in w2008r2, it looks cool, it looks great... Not until some poor user has to live with a principal name longer than 20 characters. In the GPO you decide to redirect the desktop folder, you only have to specify the root folder like \\myserver.mydomain.local\users$ and the form informs you that "For user Clair, this folder will be redirected to: \\myserver.mydomain.local\users$\Clair\Desktop" This is really COOL, all data in a single folder, one can put even the roaming profile in the same folder. Clair does not even know how lucky she (or he) is as the WINDOWS 2008 R2 SERVER uses her (or his) PRE-WINDOWS 2000 LOGON NAME to generate the path.
Fortunatelly for Clair, it makes no difference, it just looks the same as he principal name. If I lived in the US, I would be spared this trouble as my users would be John Does and even using firstname.lastname.firstname.lastname would not get me past the limit. Unfortunatelly Czechs do have a bit longer names and sometimes their firstname.lastname makes up 21 characters or more.
This is not the single instance where we encouter PRE-WINDOWS 2000 LOGON NAME in WINDOWS 2008 R2 SERVER and WINDOWS 7. Simply logon to the domain has the default form DOMAIN\PRE-WINDOWS_2000_NAME, yes one can write their principalname@domain so you end up writing almost 40 characters...
Another example of this shameful side of W2008r2 server and w7 is the well known %USERNAME% variable, again this represents pre-windows 2000 logon name.
I still hope a little that this all is my mistake and that I messed up my system and that pre-windows 2000 logon names are actually a piece of history...

SQL Server 2008. Error: 8623, Severity: 16, State: 1 The query processor ran out of internal resources
I am using SQL Server 2008 (No SP). I got the below error while executing a query having lot of values in IN.
The query processor ran out of internal resources and could not produce a query plan. This is a rare event and only expected for extremely complex queries or queries that reference a very large number of tables or partitions. Please simplify the query. If you believe you have received this message in error, contact Customer Support Services for more information.
Please let me know if any hot fix is available to fix this issue or provide a work-around.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Bharat.

workaround should be easy - instead of a giant "in" list, insert all those values into a #temp table and use that instead.

After Successful retraction of solution from SharePoint farm, still showing that status as deployed
Most of the times you can see that after successful retarction of a solution through central admin the status is still showing as deployed.
This happens because the solution might be deployed at central admin as well. So follow the below steps:
Steps to work around this issue:- Retract the solution from all content URLs
- Retract the solution from the Central Administration web application specifically

If you have got questions about this, just ask.
In a perfect world,
users would never enter data in the wrong form,
files they choose to open would always exist
and code would never have bugs.

If it helps, I think the red outline draws attention to your posts and makes you look even more distinguished!
I don't think the "abusive" flag actually does anything except draw the moderators' attention. It doesn't prevent helpful votes, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't prevent being marked as an answer. It's really just annoying, but surely he'll get bored after awhile, or (if not) at least make you look important with all of your posts outlined in red.
In any case, I hope this gets resolved quickly, but I also realize that tracking down and banning an individual permanently is not a trivial task. Even if he keeps getting through, don't let him get to you. Most of us have spent years developing the ability to ignore idiots, so I doubt his efforts here will have any effect at all on your reputation in the MSDN community.

Is this an example of what you are talking about? I notice that thread is old, but the "abuse" denotation is recent.

How many concurrent users are you running on your server?
I'm currently reading the "Capacity Planning for RD Session Host..." docx from Microsoft and while it's a great resource, I want to ask any who will respond:
How many concurrent users are you getting on your physical systems in real world use?
And what type of server nodes are they?
Thanks in advance to any who share their experiences.

Might be easier to give a useful comparison if you could give a bit of background on what it is you're hoping to run in your RDS environment.
based on some of the searches I've done, I don't see people running more than 30-45 users on a box. That seems like a low number and not very cost effective. I was just curious what people are running here

Hi
If you are using Windows server 2008 R2 as a RDS host then you can simply try TSadmin.msc and you can get all information whatever you required related to users.

Hello,
We run physical servers (dual 6 core processors with 48GB RAM and local 15K HDDs), getting 150 concurrent running full desktop. We also use AppSense Performance Manager which helps.

One of ours currently has about 60 users logged in. All they run is our point-of-sale application. Dual Intel Xeon E5620 @ 2.4 GHz and 24 Gig of RAM. CPU usage is usually under 10% and physical memory is about 40% used. Our goal is 120 users.
Are you running any local attached disk in the terminal server in this configuration? If so, what type and how much?
Thank you!

Great to hear! How many 15K spindles are you providing the terminal server?

edjin,
We have 2 disks running RAID0 - so we get approximatly 320iops of performance from this setup which is more than enough for our application set.
We looked at SSD and SAN attached but found that these didnt increase the load we could achieve.

We have 2 X 750 GB 7200 RPM Sata Drives in each box which are mirrored. Just to run the operating system and the application - and it is full desktop, not remote-app.
