• Best method for updating CompactRIO data to Server "National Instruments.Variable Engine.1"

  Hi all, I have an OPC Client of third-party I want to use for testing with the CompactRIO. Can I specify 'National Instruments.Variable Engine.1' in the OPC server, create a new item of the mutual FUND, go to a variable and then see its value. I use a CompactRIO and I want to send the updated data that I am acquisitionning of for third-party Client OPC, then, what is the best method? Currently, what works, is that I created a shared variable published to network on the LabVIEW host that I dragged in the CompactRIO project. I've created a small loop increment value every 500ms. I then created on the host computer, a little VI, who issued this national value to "" Instruments.Variable Engine.1". Now, is there a better way to do his? Is it something that can automatically fill in manually the Variable of the CompactRIO motor without publishing the shared inside a LabVIEW application variables? Thank you for your time, best regards!

  Thanks a lot for your replies, Drew,.

  I downloaded the OPC UA API and it will next week.

  Thanks again!

• best method to update the primary key

  Can someone tell me the best possible method to update the primary key so that the foreign key is also updated.

  You're after a mechanism that lets you update the primary key sometimes on some lines, or did you just impossible, which means that you must update all the data because of some kind of change in the structural definition?

  If all you need is a rational method to change keys sometimes (and this isn't quite mortal sin that other posters have been suggesting) then recreate your foreign key as a constraint can be delayed may help.

  Oracle allows no you cascading updates automatically for primary keys, but if the foreign key is carried forward you can proceed as follows:

  set constraint {foreign key constraint name} deferred;
  update parent primary key;
  update child foreign key;
  set constraint {foreign key constraint name} immediate;

• Best way to update new XPS8700 drivers?

  What is the best method of updating the drivers? I tried several times to download Dell system detects and while the site thinks that you have downloaded the file, it did not. I used my Service tag to identify my computer and noticed that the first option for the update of the BIOS driver was for the A10 Bios, while my new computer has a Bios A08. So my confidence level in the Dell site for driver updates is not high. It is better to use the Device Manager and download updates individually from there? Or is one of the free 3 software products left that supposedly make it a good option? Thanks for any recommendations you may have.

  Huh?

  If you have the BIOS A08 A10 is available, what is wrong with that? A10 is obviously a newer version than A08 and was released only very recently.

  You cannot use the Device Manager to download the drivers from the Dell site. Your best bet is to look for new drivers based on the material actually installed in your PC (look on the invoice that came with the PC, or click on the Configuration link on the support page).

  You can compare the driver version in device with one offered Manager to see whether or not you have later.

• Update the BIOS HP Pavilion b4650e

  http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=PV-56156-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en&...

  Since the upgrade my HP clubhouse of XP to 7 I noticed the original BIOS with no upgrade. I found this link, but apparently only compatible with XP. What can I use to upgrade my Pavilion d4650a, running 7

  Hello

  There are two philosophies dealing with updates:

  1. "if it ain't broke don't fix it."

  2 install the updates as expected by the manufacturer as they correct to avoid her problems.

  Manufacturers (Windows, HP, CISCO, IBM, Intel, SET, NVIDIA, ASUS, EVGA, Dell, Panasonic, Toshiba, Cyberlink, Oracle, etc.) spend billions each year, produce updates of BIOS, firmware and software to achieve this.  If she did not sense of business while they do it.  I found thanks to many years of experience that the cost to rediscover was a lot more than the cost and the risk to apply updates.  An experienced hpar once said that exposure to a bad update was less than 1%.

  Only you can decide which "side" you want to be in.  Personally, I'm proactive rather than reactive.

• Update the BIOS of powerage dell 2950 through an ESXi installation

  I'm not sure of the best way to update the bios of a Dell 2950 powerage on which I have a facilities of ESXi 3.5 u2.

  I have two virtual machines running.

  Dell has a "Update Package for Microsoft® Windows®" (PE2900_BIOS_WIN_2.1.0.EXE) which, in my opinion, can update the bios from a windows OS.

  I had to do some research, but I posted instructions on how to upgrade your Dell server running ESXi through records of SUU. Here are the instructions... I do before putting all servers in production, and after the shooting of any old material off the rack before stopping their production, never had a problem.

  Here's my process to update ESXi (dell of course hardware) servers.

  1 Download DVD Dell Software Update Utilitly, its 1.9 GB disc. (if you have a dvd player on your server, you can directly boot from this drive but if you had a CD player in your continuous server, or if you want to store the files of rep on a USB drive below eye).

  2. extract the contents of the iso (winrar), so a lot of my servers arrived with

  just for the readers of CD so I take a USB stick and loading JUST the 'repository '.

  folder from the disk update utility, which is about 1.2 GB of update

  files.

  3. then download the CD version of Dell Software Update Utility, it

  will have all the updates for the DVD and dell does not have up-to-date

  but that's fine, boot from that disk.

  4 start the CD, to the start screen select Update utility, wait 15-20

  "mins for linux to load, display, select Update ' updates are

  Located on a usb drive ", put your USB key with the storage folder"

  on it, then hit, which makes search updates, show what is necessary and

  You can update.

  5. install and start.

• Time to update the BIOS and firmware of remote management?

  I'll put up a 'new' ThinkServer RD630 (2954A6U). It was purchased for a project that never happened, and we are now dry and reuse to replace an old Office Server. The current firmware versions are:

  • BIOS: 2.05
  • ME: 2.1.5.73
  • BMC 1.7
  • IPMI 2.0

  Page 61 of the User Guide ThinkServer says, "update the BIOS on your server only if the new BIOS version specifically solves a problem you have. We don't recommend updates to the BIOS for servers that do not need. [...]"

  As far as I know, we have no problems. The system starts fine and runs Windows Server 2012 well enough.

  HERE'S MY QUESTION:

  Should I update the BIOS and firmware IMM (remote management) to the current version? Are there hidden problems, security issues or other concerns that it is worth?

  Other indicators of initial configuration that you can share with a new admin would be much appreciated, too! Thank you.

  With the help of the Lenovo Support, I was able to fix my problem where I couldn't get to the menu of the BIOS of the 630 RD (in F1) and all I saw was a cursor on the screen. I describe the procedure in detail here:

  https://forums.Lenovo.com/T5/ThinkServer-rack-mounted/BIOS-settings-blank-with-cursor-after-BIOS-UPD...

  Thank you to all those who commented above and especially to those who have sent me suggestions via PMs.

• Update the BIOS of Dell C6100

  Hello, I bought a used C6100, and as I feared is not a C6100, rather one of these customized.

  Is there a way to make sure this isn't a C6100? I tried the serial number and it is not found.

  I want to update BIOS and firmware BMC, one of the nodes has a bios of the 09 (eeek)

  Any comments would be great

  (They have updated the bios on other nodes, so they got the bios from somewhere, but I'm afraid it's a contract between the original company and the dell and dell will not help me)

  Thank you

  Hello astroproxy

  Yes, it is a DCS system. I wouldn't recommend updating the BIOS or any which firmware on the device. I suggest to use the system as-is. Unfortunately I don't have access to information on DCS systems. They were supported by specialized groups and information on them were kept in these small teams of people.

  There is no path of support within Dell. The only way you will be able to get information or support on a DCS is through the dealer.

  The best way to know if you have a DCS system is to enter your number of dell.com/support service. If the serial number is not then it is likely a DCS system. It is not 100% reliable, but it is the simplest method for verification.

  Thank you

• How can I save BIOS Firmware on G60-243DX

  How can I save BIOS Firmware on G60-243DX

  does anyone know of a tool on the net.

  My G60-243Dx has a F.33 BIOS.  It cannot be that.  latest version of the BIOS is F.32A.

  I think that geek team at best buy, updated with incorrect firmware.

  There is no available tools to save it... and I doubt that they flashed the BIOS of your laptop with the bad because the software will not Flash the BIOS, if it does not.  As well, it probably doesn't work very well if it was the wrong version.  HP site is sometimes behind the posting of updates... service centers probably have the latest versions.

• Update the BIOS R610 of linux

  Hi again fellows!

  After Googling a lot, and now me again. I need to update my BIOS and linux debian Server R610, of course, without having to restart the systems.

  All the information I found on linux is confuse, some guys use lmbios to run the images, others use the iDRAC7 Interface but I hafe iDRAC6 and I can't access the web interface, I can only access OMSA 7 Web GUI.

  How you guys update the BIOS from linux? I already downloaded the image.

  Thanks in advance

  Hello xgonzalo

  You can update the BIOS to OpenManage Essentials: http://en.community.dell.com/techcenter/systems-management/w/wiki/1989.openmanage-essentials.aspx

  The easiest day is simply to use a DUP and updated through the iDRAC. Why you can't access the web interface of the iDRAC?

  The BIOS will not update until the system restarts, then why is it so important that you perform the update without reboot? If you can not web server iDRAC function then it would probably best to boot from a Linux live CD that you run the RHEL or CentOS sync .bin file. Other methods to perform updates will be community supported on Debian.

  This is the community support site: http://linux.dell.com

  Hello

  I don't know why she does not appear on the download page. I checked several pages to download the product as it should be, and it is not present anywhere. The package is properly formatted, so I suspect it's a timing problem of a certain type with the site. There is a newer version of the firmware that is pending release and will get I hope that Web site to get new data.

• Impossible to extract and run the update of BIOS HP Proliant ML350 G4

  Hi guys,.

  I currently have a problem with my server ESX/ESXi 3.5.  I try to update firmware BIOS but were unsuccessful.

  I downloaded the required files and followed the instructions from HP but nothing helped.  After running the command "sh cp006541.scexe" root I get the following error:

  cp006541.scexe: could not find a required program.

  Make sure that these programs are on the path: tar gzip tail sleep mkdir rm

  I can verify that gzip and tar are installed on the server.  Is that what I am logged in as root and it will not work?

  CD HP SmartStart does not host VMware ESX support so I can't use this CD either.

  Can someone please help me with this problem that I can't find information on hp.com

  Your help is appreciated

  Kind regards

  Angelo

  ESXi is not a Linux environment.

  To manage updates of the firmware of the hardware, the best way is the tool from the seller.

  HP as a live CD that can perform this task.

• Yet WT8-A-102 stops suddenly and updated the BIOS

  I bought a Toshiba still WT8-A-102 (not part no PDW09E-00100EEN) to the end of 2014. I upgraded from Windows 8 for Windows 10 Home Version 1511 without any problem in 2015.

  I use it for a limited number of applications - Office365 and navigation, generally with Chrome and Hola VPN to access certain geographically limited websites, for example TV channels, watch movies and content recorded from my TV (these are generally. TSV format); I run the free version of Malwarebytes and AVG anti-virus.

  I have two problems I can solve t.
  
  1 stop abrupt
  For a few months now, it always turns off suddenly, always exactly 30 minutes after the start. There is no warning, the screen goes black and that s it. You can immediately restart and continue as before, but the same thing will happen again after another 30 minutes. It happens that it s plugged in or on battery power.

  I can find no reason for this. For example:

  • It didn't happen when I've upgraded to Windows 10 but a few months later.
  • The battery does not turn down.
  • The Tablet does not heat.
  • It occurs regardless of whether you ve been using the Tablet constantly for 30 minutes or simply turn it on and let it idle.
  • Sleep and stop times are set to one hour.

  I ve looked at event viewer and the only things there are a few system errors showing which means nothing to me (a server is not registered within the required). Certainly, there is nothing that happens in the few minutes before it turns off suggesting a reason.

  Any ideas please?
  
  Update 2 BIOS

  I ve installed the different Toshiba updates available for this model. However, the update BIOS doesn t work. She is currently the version 1.60. I ve downloaded the version 1.80 for this model on the desktop. The zip file is bios-20150722112320. I extract it and it starts the process. The Tablet goes on to say it's reboot and then a panel will appear that says:

  InsydeH20 Flash secure
  Invalid firmware image!
  Press any key to reset the system

  It s a Tablet! While they want me to? I ve you press buttons - Windows and volume - but nothing happens. If I just leave it, it turns off after 30 minutes and we re back with BIOS version 1.60 and I can work as usual.

  Although this seems excessive, but suggestions please?

  Thanks a lot for any advice,
  John

  It seems that your problem is similar to mine. I'm having the same random stop downs https://forum.toshiba.eu/showthread...-Error-Code-10 also I have an error code 10 in Device Manager. The agenda called "Intel Trusted execution engine Interface"... are you facing the same error?

  I sent my tablet at the service of Toshiba, it has been over a month now and still waiting to be informed about the problem!

• updated which bios dc7700

  The HP website lists 2 updates of BIOS for my dc7700 SFF XP pro computer. They are:

  1-HP Compaq Business Desktop System BIOS (786E1 BIOS) (International)
  2 - HP Compaq dc7700p Business Desktop System BIOS Intel vPro Technology (786E1 BIOS) (International

  A big piece on the inside has Intel on it, but not Intel Pro. Does this mean I should choose No. 1.

  In addition, 2 other choice is on the list:

  3 - Firmware update for HP 786E BIOS families computers equipped processors Intel (International)
  4 HP Compaq Business Desktop ME update Firmware and utilities (International)

  What are doing?  What is ME Firmware?

  You are the very welcome.

  With a Pentium processor, you use the update of BIOS not vPro (HP Compaq Business Desktop System BIOS (786E1 BIOS) (International).

  I would certainly be Flash the BIOS using the F10 Flash system ROM you will see on the page of instructions when you first run the BIOS file.  Simply format a USB key with the FAT 32 file system and copy the contents of the file flash BACK in the USB.  Plug it into the PC, turn on the faucet of the F10 key to enter the BIOS and select the menu system flash rom and follow the instructions on the screen.

  Just keyboard, mouse and monitor connected when you Flash the BIOS (other than the drive flash usb of course).
