Isolate the production environment servers in a test environment

I would like to create a clone of my production SQL and Sharepoint server environment and isolate the servers from the rest of the environment. What I want to do is to create a new volume on my SAN and clone the two servers to it. After that, I want to always allow access to a consultant in order to access servers remotely while not allowing the rest of the production environment to see the servers. Is there an easy way to configure this?

You can work with NAT.

Add a virtual machine acting as a NAT and gateway in this "isolated" network

Or, simpler, add a server or a client with a dual NIC, an isolated network and the other in the local network.

  • Error 401 during the passage of the assessment of the production environment

    Hello

    We recently moved our application for assessment of the production environment by using the credentials provided by the Push of BB Services, only to find out that we receive an "HTTP 401 - PushServiceId/password status invalid in the authorization HTTP header" whenever we try to send a push notification.

    We do not have change our code (which works very well using assessment data) at all except for his replacement by credentials. We use the URL https://cpxxx.pushapi.na.blackberry.com/mss/PD_pushRequest to send our push notifications, where xxx is the CPID provided by BlackBerry, and we're certainly using the password for the initiator to push (instead of the password for the portal content provider).

    Needless to say that we are base64 encoding app id and the password in the header, and as I said if switch back us to the environment assessment (change credentials), everything works fine.

    This becomes a problem, I would appreciate help if someone was faced with a similar problem.

    That's all. He works with the new credentials.

    Thank you.

  • How to deploy my portal to the production environment

    Hi all

    I use the ASDK developed an access portal, my question is how to deploy my portal to the production environment? You must also install the ASDK in a production environment? Or just install the package of execution?

    Thank you
    Alan.H

    Hello Alan,.

    Is this an application ASDK 10 g or 11g? In both cases, the answer is really the same thing: do not install the ASDK in the production environment, but for 11g it's much easier to do.

  • Isolate the virtual environment

    I am trying to create a virtual test environment consisting of workstations, member servers, and domain controllers. I need to isolate this laboratory of the rest of the network to avoid introducing domain controllers and others to our production network. Looking at settings of network card for the VM one workstation I created, the only option is "VM Network". Is there a way to configure the virtual machines where they would be isolated from our network?

    Hello.

    If you are working on a single host ESX (i), you could create a vSwitch with no physical cards assigned to him and use it to the isolated network.  If you work with multiple hosts, you can create a new vSwitch and assign a single physical network adapter that is connected to a remote switch.

    Good luck!

  • Anonymous performer of Oracle PL/SQL in the Production environment leave a residue?

    Hello

    In my project, we have a large PL/SQL in Prod-Replica Envt to generate scripts. However, to reproduce Prod for this Prod-Replica lasts long and is causing a delay to respond to change requests.

    We have READ ONLY access to Prod DB, but we cannot deploy the PL/SQL Package it. We plan to convert the PLSQL in an anonymous block PLSQL and running it in PROD DB to get real data. Alternatively, we can run it directly or via Java and then read the DBMS output later. as mentioned here-> the use of cursors and results in Oracle PL/SQL, Java/JDBC - Stack Overflow

    , However, is not an expert in PL/SQL, I wanted to know, if it leaves residues in PROD outside the additional load a temporary server for read queries. We only select queries in this PL/SQL and so I donot believe we leave triggers or change the DB somehow.

    Can you please let me know the possible consequences of it.

    -Thanks & Regads

    -Scott

    There will be an impact on the server, the conversion of code unit of PL/SQL (procedures and functions) must be encapsulated in a single code PL/SQL anonymous block.

    This anonymous PL/SQL code block needs to be parsed and compiled - burn a lot of CPU (that oppose the use of unit code already compiled PL/SQL).

    This anonymous PL/SQL block is likely to be very large because it contains too many units of PL/SQL source code. This needs memory to the server as the whole code block will be stored in the shared pool (for analysis).

    Another impact on performance would be wise to network. It requires more bandwidth to transfer this big block of code (created by the customer) to the Oracle server. This increases latency. And is not an evolutionary approach.

    So no, there is no "residue" of the code inside the actual physical database code is never stored in the database. However, this approach and the code will affect negatively network and server resources.

    You should consider the problem and determine if this solution you have in mind, justifies this impact.

  • Is there real problems leaving the production as a 'full of APEX development environment?

    Hello

    We have recently installed APEX (5) in our production and Test environments.  We have not all applications running in Production at the moment.  Looking through the documentation I've learned that you can configure an instance of the APEX "APEX full development environment" or a "APEX Runtime Environment" and you can switch between the two through scripting.

    It is recommended to set your runtime production environment.  However when you do this you will lose access to admin functions.  My questions are:

    (1) if we look / account ADMIN secure as well as all users in our application workspace, is so no REAL question simply letting PROD as development environment?

    (2) If you make your Production environment, a runtime environment, it seems that you can import only new applications via the SQL script.  What happens when you export out of your Test instance and it has an application ID that is already used in the Production environment?  When you import forward, it lets create you a new application ID instead of using the existing one.  I fear that the admins will accidentally overwrite an existing application if they import via the script.

    You can keep the Apex Builder in production. Indeed, it gives you a lot of additional options.

    Ask the administrator to disable all accounts developer of workspace in the production environment, however.

    Also, export the applications run only, not run & Build. It gives a little extra coverage.

    When you import forward, it lets create you a new application ID instead of using the existing one.

    It would be bad practice. You would create a nightmare of versioning IMHO. What happens if you get an error of production application ID 1231, page 21, which is the application ID 132, page 21 in development? How can you know which application is which?

  • How to replace a page in the production of development?

    Hello

    My development environment is Apex running locally on a Windows 7 box (Apex 4.2.2) and Oracle 11 g.  I want to export a single page of the development application and import it (replacing the same number of page) in the production application that resides on a server hosting on the 3rd party app (also version 4.2.2).  When you import into the production environment, I get the following message.

    "This page was exported from another application or application in the different workspace. Page cannot be installed in this application. »

    There must be a way to export/import a single page of a development in an environment of production environment.  What approach should be taken?

    Thank you

    Kim

    As long as the applications have the same app id, you should be able to export development and import production... However, this is NOT the recommended method for making migration...  Better make an app as apposed to pages...

  • In regards to the product class Import

    Hello

    I just wanted to know can we import the class of product in the Production environment.

    I understand that even if we import, but we cannot map the Product Spec and will the deployment. Is this common undertanding...

    Thank you in advance

    Classes of products can be imported into DS (Design Studio) at design time and must be mapped to ProdSpec manually.
    When this mapping is performed in the design studio, productClassMapping.xml will be formed which will be used later in the mapping/validation of products upstream to the OSM product specifications.

    Yes, you need deployment when you try to add new classes of product in the OSM.

    Instead of add plug your orchestration/som cartridge prod, have a cartridge for maintaining product specifications and classes of products where you can view these from your orchestration/som cartridges. So that your deployment requires only changes in the classes/technology of the product.

    Guys, correct me if anything wrong above.

    Create DDL scripts to configure each environment database in the way that suits you (create tables, indexes, packages, etc.). Use the Oracle database as export datapump utilities to export data from a database and import in another. JavaScript, you must specify your needs with precision in words where it is stored. Even with the images and css.

    If you create an application packaged for installation in many databases, you can create an installation script that goes along with the application. See the User Guide and the page objects supporting in Report Designer when you select an application. There are a lot of instructions throughout.

  • Send emails based on the dev/test/production environment

    Hi Experts,

    I have this requirement where

    If xyz process is complete

    1. in production send e-mail to different users of the company
    2. in dev and test send emails to only the development team.

    So I intend to modify the code to get information from database "Select sys_context('userenv','instance_name') from double;" and send emails to recipients, based on the name of the instance returned.

    If I'm heading in the right direction? Please let me know if there is a risk that in the future prod and dev can return the same name!

    I'm on "Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.4.0 - 64 bit Production"

    Thanks in advance.

    We have a table of configuration and put an entry here as recipient of email. You can store different settings for different environments.

    hard coding your logic, relying on instance_name is not a good idea.

  • Another scenario of test - isolate the recovery Site

    Question for the gurus out there:

    Installation: We have a simple configuration with a single restore site protected and unique. The configuration of the network is stretched VLAN. All the tests to bubble networks works as advertised, and we are very pleased with the solution so far. In addition to virtual infrastructure, there is a certain physical systems that make up the environment, and the goal is to make a complete failure on the test of the site in the coming weeks.

    Test case: the proposed solution is to drop the link between sites protected-recovery and turn the entire failover datacenter in a bubble (only accessible through VPN links). Once the test is completed, we would have back then all the changes on the recovering site, so that it protects once more the main site.

    Question: Would it be possible to rotate part SRM to the test in 'Test' mode only - that she set up the whole environment attached to the VLAN direct (who are now isolated from production by dropping the link of the site) and once finished, reset the recovery by the normal site (i.e. "Test recovery finished, press on continue clean...") ») ? I don't see why it wouldn't work, unless for some reason, the test procedure requires communication between the sites that the effective recovery process does not.

    Thanks for any comments.

    Hello

    Recovery test requires no connection to the protected site as far as I know.

    About the networking part of your question, when you change a recovery plan, on the network management screen you have an option to configure the test networks. These networks is used during the trial instead of bubble networks (default).

    SRM will be cleaning the virtual environment, but how do you cleaning physical servers?

    For how long you plan to run on the recovering site? You have sufficient capacity for snapshots on your storage array?

    Michael.
