• Cannot create the user in SQL Server 2008 physical model

  When I'm on the right, click relationship models-> Relational_1-> physical models-> SQL Server 2008-> database-> users, 'New' (which is the only option) is greyed out and I can not add users.  In versions 4.0 EA, I was able to create users.  This feature has been removed from SQL Server?  I work in a mixed shop and we chose SDDM because it could support Oracle and Microsoft. And I am now ready to migrate everything from Oracle Designer to SDDM and it seems that some of the featrures of SQL Server have been removed.

  Hi Marcus,

  any object login - tree of the physical model of SQL Server consists of:

  -Databases

  - Connections

  -Tables

  -Views

  - ...

  If you need to create a connection in the connections series and in its dialog box you will find related tab.

• Windows server 2008 r2 outgoing smtp

  Hello

  I have a dell t300 running windows server 2008 R2. It is running Hyper-v, also manage a virtual machine running windows server 2008 r2 with exchange 2010 sp1.

  Everything was fine, then all of a sudden, over the weekend, outgoing calls to port 25 have stopped working on the virtual machine.  I can use Explorer (port 80) ok but nothing to the port 25 stops - it's as if the firewall blocks but I don't see where.  I try to call port 25 on various other hosts using telnet and it does NOT work

  The physical host works very well to port 25, as do all systems on my network, so the problem lies in the implementation of windows server 2008 r2 in the virtual machine somehow.  I have another virtual machine running windows XP on the same host and that is called fine ut using telnet to the virtual network bridge is not the problem either. I'm guessing that the firewall or a corruption of the tcp stack sort

  I ' LD be grateful for clues about where to look because email system has continued to send him and it's a major pain.

  Thank you

  Hi, Ive answered my own post!  turns out the problem be mcafee that is running on the server. It was blocking the outgoing mail that he had detected an apparent threat. Unfortunately, it didn't say clearly that he had done this.

  In any case, the deactivation of this area of mcafee has solved the problem. all I have to do now is to discover the threat!

• DNS Server 2008 issue

  My Windows Server 2008 VMs does not automatically create the DNS records, but will update them if I manually create them. Here's the break down. I have several servers in my area, virtual and physical with static IP addresses. Records from 2003 and 2008 server create and update DNS physical server running as they should. I have several Virtual Server 2003 computers that also work well with the DNS system. The only problem I have is with Server 2008 running on a virtual machine. What I have done for all virtual machines 2008 is manually create DNS record and change the permissions so that he has edit rights to the record. Does anyone have any ideas of what can be the problem?

  Hi FlingDog,

  Welcome to the forums!

  I doubted much you have a specific question from VMware here. It seems that your DNS permissions are not quite right.

  If you you remove the manual entries in DNS, re-seems-t-it if manually save you it from the server performed? Try to run the following in a command prompt: ipconfig/registerdns

  As indicated at the end of the command, the DNS records must be updated, and if not the best place to look is the event viewer on your DNS and your server after 15 minutes.

  Post back if you still have problems.

  See you soon,.

• Dual boot Windows 8 on Windows server 2008 R2

  Original title: I have brought asus X 202

  I have brought asus X 202 that comes with windows 8 and I need double OS to run on it(windows_server_2008_R2).can I install it?

  When dual-boot with older versions of Windows, the earlier version (this case Server 2008 R2) must be installed first.

  I personally recommend that you run Windows Server 2008 R2 through a virtual computer program:

  You can use alternatives such as Oracle VirtualBox or VMWare Player.

• Cannot import Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4.

  Hi team,

  I use VMware vCenter Converter Standalone to import certain Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V virtual machines to VMware ESXi 4, using another Windows Server 2008 R2 as the machine Agent Converter. Well, the agent connects to the Windows VM source very well (I used the net use command to create a line of conduct...), perhaps no chance to connect to the computer target VMware ESxi 4 and make the converter doesn't work...

  Following is the error message:

  "Unable to connect to the host specified" from the converter agent machine. " It is perhaps because the host is not available on the network, there is a problem with the network configuration or management on this host services do not react. Check all components of converter to be able to connect.

  So, my question is; is it possible to create a work around (like the net use Windows command above) to make possible the connection of the converter Agent on Linux VMware ESXi 4 machine Windows machine, to directly import the virtual machines of Windows Hyper-V to Linux VMware?

  Thanks in advance,

  It's even easier than that

  Use this: http://www.winimage.com/

  Which will convert *.vhd *.vmdk, so you don't need to do all this... Of course, another way is to start the machines, leaving them on Hyper-V and go through the network and process virtual machine as physical machines and do a P2V on the network...

• Windows Server 2008 R2 on a host of Windows 7 virtual machine

  Using a host Windows 7 Ultimate (64 bit), could I create a virtual machine in Windows Server 2008 R2 as a DC with active directory and join the field of Win 7 host?

  If so, what virtualization software recommend?

  It would be only for development purposes.

  No, you would not be able to join the host (Windows 7) for Windows Server 2008 R2. (Chicken and eggs).

  You can use Oracle VirtualBox or VMWare Player:

• Is it possible - installation of a virtual machine with Server 2008 on a disc and use the other drive for storage

  I have a Dell power edge server with 2 Configuration of disks 1 TB in raid 0

  I can install a Win Server 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 R2 on a VD without problem, but I do not see the other disk of TB in option within Windows Server to be used as storage SQL only.

  How can I get the two disks to appear in Windows server?

  what I want is:

  First Dell 1 TB drive VD = Server 2008R2 and SQL on C:\

  Second VD Dell 1 TB drive = D:\ like disk storage

  do I have to configure the Dell VD another way or is it possible

  
  

  Thank you

  
  

  
  

  You basically configure the virtual machine that you want on all the available storage (do not forget to keep free space, for example snapshots). -As I understand it - is so that ESXi does not see the storage! This is often caused by the RAID controllers not taken in charge or the RAID issues. Please check if the RAID controller is supported as well as the configuration. BTW. Why do you want to configure RAID0? If you want to create two virtual disks on warehouses of separate data anyway, simply present to ESXI as two separate disks/volumes.

• Impossible to install windows server 2008 on virtual machine

  Hello

  I installed vmware 9 without any problems, but when I create a virtual machine and I want to install windows server 2008 on it, I see this error:

  This virtual machine is configured for 64-bit operating systems. However, the 64-bit mode is not possible.
  This host supports Intel VT - x, but Intel VT - x is disabled.
  Intel VT - x can be disabled if it has been disabled in the BIOS/firmware settings or host was not powered by bicycle since changing this setting.
  (1) check that the settings BIOS/firmware activate Intel VT - x and disable "trust execution."
  2 turn on the host if either of these BIOS/firmware settings have been changed.
  (3) turn on the host if you have not done since the installation of VMware Workstation.
  (4) update of the BIOS/firmware from the host to the latest version.
  For more information, see http://VMware.com/info?id=152 .
