linked clones, sql server sysprep, how does the storage

Hello

I created a SQL Server 2008 R2 sysprep installation. deployed clones related to these models.

Everything works great!

I just want to know how the installatioon takes place. linked clones share binaries and files of parent?

Is there any degradation of performance in the future?

or that all the SQL Server program files and installation files actually get copied on?

What happens exactly...

Thank you

Solution

1 use this link to prepare the image through GUI

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/petersad/archive/2009/12/17/SQL-Server-2008-R2-Sysprep-step-by-step.aspx

2 copy the content on SQL Server ISO at the root of C:\xxxxxx

3 complete the image using configuration.ini (encrypted installation)

you will need to change your setupcomplete.cmd in the C:\windows\setup\scripts folder

4. once the installation is finished, you can run a batch file to delete the installation folder.

any questions let me know

  • DB Link to SQL Server

    Hi all

    I'm trying to understand how to configure a DB connection to MS SQL Server, I learned a lot of links but still do not see where I am going wrong.

    I tested different types of configuration:

    Oracle Database 11 g 11.2.0.3.0 on AIX--> gateway database Oracle 11 g Release 2 (11.2.0.1.0) for MS SQL (64-bit) on Windows Server 2008R2 SP1 - > MS SQL server 2008 R2 x 64 SP1 on Windows Server 2008R2 SP1

    Oracle Database 11 g 11.2.0.3.0 on AIX--> gateway database Oracle 11 g Release 2 (11.2.0.1.0) for MS SQL (32-bit) on Windows Server 2003R2 SP2 x 32 - > MS SQL server 2008 R2 x 64 SP1 on Windows Server 2008R2 SP1

    Oracle Database 11 g on AIX - 11.2.0.3.0 > gateway database Oracle 11 g Release 2 (11.2.0.1.0) for MS SQL (32-bit) on Windows Server 2003x 32 SP2 + MS SQL server 2005 R2 x 32 on the same Windows Server SP4.

    I followed the instructions as

    Configuration of database gateway for ODBC Oracle

    http://www.YouTube.com/watch?v=rEZOiZrc708

    etc.

    But nothing works (())

    Help me please understand what is the problem?

    Let me show you the last configuration where the Oracle Database gateway and MS SQL 2005 x 32 SP4 server are installed on the same Windows 2003x 32 R2 SP2 server.

    First, I created a system DSN, as described, for example, here Re: DB link to SQL Server

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\dg4msql]
    "Driver"="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\SQLSRV32.dll"
    "Description"="dg4msql"
    "Server"="MSVO-TG4MSQL"
    "LastUser"="RECOVER"
    
    

    then I configured the config .ora files

    Here's my config files:

    initdg4msql.ora - the Oracle database gateway

    # This is a customized agent init file that contains the HS parameters
    # that are needed for the Database Gateway for Microsoft SQL Server
    
    #

    )

    (CONNECT_DATA =

    You didn't fix your database tnsnames.ora file - you have still the bad SID entry in there - see the tnsping:

    (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = tg4msql)) (HS = OK))

    => According to your listener.ora file the SID is dg4msql.

    Please open the tnsnames.ora file on your Oracle database server and modify the alias SQLLAB:

    SQLLAB.world = (DESCRIPTION =

    (ADDRESS_LIST =

    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = 10.48.104.18)(PORT = 1521))

  • How does the online Flash Player Settings Manager?

    That's one thing, I've always been curious to know: How does the Flash Player Settings Manager ?

    It's a UI SWF running in a regular reader of Flash, but there obviously access to all kinds of Flash Player settings low level, a typical SWF is not.

    My first guess is that the user interface is in fact built into Flash Player, but then why would you go to visit a website to see? The SWF file is actually be served by the site Web and Flash Player's trust to the Web site to access a low level player not made public API?

    As a Flash developer for many years I've just been curious about this for a long time. Now that the Manager is obsolete by the construction in the settings (which is a lot less mysterious) Manager, I thought I would ask before it is completely forgotten.

    -Aaron

    Yes, the SWF is imbued with special powers, which are linked to the domain that sovereign wealth funds are served from.  The settings are basically just special LSO.

  • How does the remote collector?

    I'm not clear on the role of remote collector.

    How does the remote collector? He interviews / transmits data to the internal manifold? What is the flow of data?

    Thank you

    -isayani

    Isayani,

    It was stated earlier in this thread - a case of primary use for the remote collector is to collect metrics to an environment that is separated by a logical or physical network complexity.  For example, a demilitarized zone where you want to just open a minimum of connections internally or to a remote location where you have limited network connectivity and wishes to consolidate the collections to save bandwidth.

    You can also choose to add another collector if your vC Ops server is of limited resources.  However, based on the environment of size that you used in your example, there is no advantage and only an additional complexity of having several collectors.

  • running in vCenter Server, ESX, how clean the vCenter host?

    I hope that the topic of the thread makes sense somehow.

    We have vCenter Server works like an ESX VM, for now on local storage, but eventually it can be moved to the SAN storage.

    To clean up our ESX host, we use Update Manager.

    How does the VUM to sanitise the host that is running the vCenter Server VM?

    What should I do to have AUVS to clean up the host that runs the vCenter Server VM that is running VUM?

    Thank you, Tom

    If everything works on local storage, you can simply make your updates via esxupdate on the command line.

  • How does the LEAST?

    Hello

    I want a table to count (*) 1 less, count (*) table 2 in a test case. How does the least in functions?
    create table count1( col1 number);
    create table count2( col2 number);
    
    truncate table count1;
    truncate table count2;
    insert into count1 values(1);
    insert into count1 values(2);
    insert into count1 values(3);
    insert into count1 values(4);
    insert into count1 values(5);
    commit;

    insert into count2 values(2);
    insert into count2 values(3);
    insert into count2 values(5);
    commit;

    Less works like this. Consider this SQL

     MINUS 
    

    Now LESS is what removes the records of query1 queries occurring in query2 and displays the remaining records in query1.

    So, in your case

    select count(*) from count1 -- Result is 5
    minus
    select count(*) from count2 -- Result is 4
    

    This returns 5 as the number of table count1 is 5.

  • How does the virtual machine BACK to Windows?

    How does the NTVDM?  I run an old DOS program written in Fortran 77, which, with the exception of the database has not changed in 20 years.  It takes about 2 hours to start a business.  My boss told me that I can get a better computer.  Upgrading my computer 3 GB RAM maximum 4 GB will make a difference.  When I use the MEM command, I thought that the memory in use is what I take BACK used, approximately 1 MB.  Am I missing something?  More RAM can help?  Help a different CPU architecture?   The little knowledge by going to various sites, I have gained seems to tell me that dual core or quad processors are unnecessary because BACK is a single processor and use it exclusively.  How about a faster chip.  Is there a limit to the speed that is finished on the BACK.  Then addresses NTVDM maybe all these problems Unlike DOS itself.

  • How does the trash?

    OT: Trash.

    How does the trash?

    It seems to be a "sandbox", but a reference to the storage space on each disk.

    I can't find a real situation for the trash

    If I delete a file from the c: drive or the drive e: is the deleted file stored in a different location or the renamed file right on the disc it came? (don't forget the BACK a deleted.doc file was just renamed $eleted.doc)

    Thank you

    In Windows 7, the trash is a named hidden system folder $Recycle.Bin.  There is a file with that name in the root of each of your partitions (e.g., C:\$Recycle.bin, D:\$Recycle.bin, etc.).  Within each of these folders are folders for each user in use on the machine account (there may be additional folders).

    When you double-click on the icon to the trash that is displayed on your desktop that opens is a composite of all files $Recycle.bin for the user account that is active.  In other words, you see the files you deleted all partitions of disk, but you will not see the deleted files of another user of your computer.

    If you right-click on the Recycle Bin icon, you can configure the space used for the $Recycle.Bin records on each partition.  The default size appears in about 10 percent of the first 40 GB on the size of the partition more than 5% of the balance.  As a general rule, you should leave the default size.

  • How does the task before action?

    VSM 9.1.4

    MSSQL

    Hi guys! How does the special action forward in rules CBT works?

    In this scenario, where the dependent task will go if it is enabled by the CBT?

    1. Task Implementatation is initially assigned to GroupX
    2. CBT rules:
      • If the request Type TypeA, proceed to task, set state of StatusA demand and send the task to the GroupA
      • If the request Type is TypeB, go to the task of technical approval, the Request Status StatusB value and prior approval of the Group b

    test.PNG

    When I tried to simulate this, the task of implementation was not sent to GroupA when the request Type TypeA. Instead, he was sent to the assigned group GroupX. Checked the CBT story and it seems that the rules that has task until the action was never carried out.

    Yes, that's all. I think now I know why it works the way you expect.

    I think that if TCC happens to any rule that meet its criteria of condition, it does not check any other rules in addition.

    So you specify different rules for different conditions, but not for different actions.

    And several actions (for example the Request Status value and before the task) can be combined into a single action like this:

  • How does the Vswitch?

    Hello

    Suppose we have an Esxi host with 2 physical network card and a virtual machine running on it. without grouping of NETWORK cards NIC is chosen to forward traffic outside the Esxi?

    and I want to know in this scenario, how does the Vswitch? It sends the mac address-based frame? Let's say that the two network adapters is connected to the same switch.

    Thank you.

    If you don't want to use the pool (for some reason any) then creating vSwitches with only a single uplink or create multiple groups of ports on a vSwitch with multiple uplinks and override the order of failover on each port group to set vmnic active, standby and unused.

  • Re: How does the data retention?

    Hello guys

    How does the conservation of data in vC Ops? In the document it says data retention in the company is 900 days. But in the vSphere user interface, we can keep up to 4 years, which is by default and the minimum level. These two does not?

    There are also resolutions different weeks, monthly, quarterly, and annual. Suppose for example that if we maintain weekly resolution as 12 weeks and months 10, all the quarters 9 and annual 5 years as shown in the picture how it works? I mean after 12 weeks the data will be deleted, but we said 5 years for recall information. How this is achieved.

    Please help me

    Thank you

    Let me be more specific:

    1. the colelctor collects data interval 20 seconds every 5 min

    2. it is wrapped in a 5 min avg and max value.

    3. these values 5 min is rolled up to hourly, daily, weekly... ect... for two reasons: capacity and analysis of dynamic thresholds which is stored in two databases diffenent calculations.

    It does not compress the stats... it gets stats avg. (Analysis uses avg to get trends used for forcasting ability... ect)

  • How does the BC and calculate shipping UPS?

    How does the BC and calculate shipping UPS? How does he know how many widgets can fit in a box or if a widget is big enough to carry by itself?

    Some of our products are shipping at the right price, and others are far away.

    Are "Product Dimensions" dimensions of the box or widget?

    Thanks for any help.

    Everything is located in one single box no matter how big it is, BC and then calculates a volumetric size of the products, the problem, it's long and thin elements do not get calculated very well and lead to prices being unacceptable for certain types of orders.

    Second question, dimensions of the product should be the size of the box and not the size of the product (for the calculation of delivery somewhat correctly).

    I said that a short time before it can be overcome, but you must calculate your shipment with a 3rd party and then inject in order before ordering, it is out of the box solution, hopefully some new funky BC liquid options come along and fix everything.

  • How does the license for CS6?

    Looking to start learning about website coding, and I've heard a lot of Dreamweaver.  I'm not subscribe through CC, I'm looking to buy a license for life CS6 outright.

    But how does the license work?  If I have to reinstall my OS because my hard drive dies, I can reinstall DW using the same product key?  Is it related to my Adobe account, which means that I have to log in to activate it?

    Any help would be appreciated, live chat is down so I thought it would be the next best place.

    If you are unable to disable advance, you can contact Adobe customer for help.  But as I said, you can install up to 2 devices.  I think if you try to install on a 3rd device, your other 2 get automatically turned off.  So even if you need to format C, you will always be able to get up and running quickly.

    Is meant by perpetual license "to use for as long as your operating system can run it."   CS6 is almost 3 years old and is no longer updated.  It is what it is.  Currently, 4 versions of the currently available version of creative cloud.
