MSA 1000 SAN newby question

• Compatibility of MSA 1000

  I have an old MSA 1000 Fibre Channel SAN that I intend to use for a data store on a free ESXi hypervisor type host.

  I checked the compatibility guide and the last listed support for ESX version is ESX 3.5.

  Not being is not terribly familiar with VMware, I guess I can use still managing this SAN even if it is not listed in the compatibility guide for ESXi 4.1 because he (my assumption) is simply no longer being officially supported or tested.

  However, I thought I'd ask - are there specific restrictions or problems with FC SAN or without generally with the free ESXi Hypervisor?

  I expect that the SAN won't work. It will not be taken in charge so if you have any questions, and they are connected to the San do not expect nor the best effort. Most important that the SAN would be to ensure that the HBAs are supported. If they don't are not I would consider even using them.

• Cannot connect ESX to HP MSA 1000 box

  I have 2 ESX servers. These two servers are connected to a HP MSA 1000 (that's our mini san)

  On the connection to one of the vi console box, I see the server and 3 comments below.

  On the creating a new virtual machine, I can connect to a data store. There is no connectivity between this box and the table.

  On the connection to the 2nd ESX Server via the VI Client, all guests show as unavailable.

  I can't restart or do something with these clients.

  In addition, trying to add a new virtual machine, I see nothing in the screen of data store. (then becomes invalid)

  Is this a problem with conectivity between the ESX Server (in which comments are unavailable) and the HP table?

  Can what commands I use to tets connectivity to an ESX Server data store and check if data warehouses are available?

  Hello

  So, I assumed that the aircraft was down and had to be reset. The guys at HP have not upgraded the firmware of the device as they wanted to ensure that there are no compatibility issues with the firmware of the MSA 1000 box cards HBA and firmware.

  Interesting, that I never got to restart my unit to get connectivity. I would upgrade to firmware active/active.

  A strange thing is that this MSA 1000 has 2 controllers, but one of the controller was never connected to the box. Not bad, it is inserted into the MSA1000. It seems therefore, that there is no (active-passive, active) configuration of the array of redundancy. It's something I want to do moving forward.

  Just insert it. Make sure however that the main port HBAS on each host is connected to the primary controller within the MSA. If they are not get you flip flop unless you use Active/Active firmware.

  At this point you can connect via the Web, VI and the ILO in two boxes of ESX Server and Yes we had also a connected Windows box (it was never passed on to me), so now in the windows box, I started the utility of matrices of Compaq and I can see the raid configurations.

  This is how to configure the MSA. You can do not to ESX or the ILO, only a box separated from Windows with qlogic HBA or cable series. That in general, I have connected to my ESX host so I could control things without needing a separate windows box.

  Oh boy! IF anyone of you can guide me to a good guide for the configuration and connections between MSA1000 SAN and ESX hosts, it would be wonderful.

  HP should have one.

  Another question: I noticed that the version of ESX is 3.0 and VI client is 2.0. Also when I connect through the VI client, I see that the tab of the inventory and the administration, I don't see the options such as cluster options and also activate the plug-ins for VMotion and VMupdate Manager. When I connect through the VI client, I login as root.

  Should I be upgrading the infrastructure of the ESX 3.5 and the VI Client to 2.5 to activate all options?

  These options are available in 3.0 and 3.5. Not really sure what you're asking here. But I think it's a separate issue and should have its own thread.

• Boot from SAN Configuration Question

  Asked me to start deloying new hosts ESX 3.5 using Boot from SAN.  All the documentation I've found is clear on the configuration of HBAS and SAN lun.  I tried to find out what the correct design for the HBA boot ports and storage used.  Does anyone have info on the Boot/operating system as well as the storage of data on the same HBA ports.  This design would be only two HBA by using a port of each for failover.  I also plans to isolate the boot/OS on his own two redundant ports but get resistance from my SAN Group on the fact we use two additional ports turned on by host.  After a few unsuccessful attempts with VMware support, I finally got someone to give me one different answer a document on how to put in place the HBA and SAN.  I was told that sharing should be fine but I also met some files indicating that you must keep them separately.

  Hello

  There is no question share the wwn for a startup process.

  The key here is to always book LUN 0 for the reader to boot/OS on all systems.

  I have 12 guests thanks to her, and there is no sound technical reason to isolate him.

  Kind regards

• Various Newby Questions on get Podcasts on iTunes

  I want to download podcasts (.mp3 files) to iTunes 2 Web sites that I administer - one is a WordPress ( http://www.hopeandpassion.org/?page_id=232 ) site and one is a non-WordPress ( http://www.norwinalliance.org/audio-links.php ) site. There are about 50 podcasts on the WordPress site and about 600 podcasts on non-WordPress site.  50 podcasts on the WordPress site are provided as links on a static page.

  I am new to the FEED RSS and iTunes.

  To the WordPress site, I figured out what to do for one of the 50 podcasts: I took the link for the podcast and published in a new blog, so I used the mechanical press to set up my RSS feeds ( http://www.cobwebinc.com/wordpress/feed/podcast/ ), I created a graph for the power and gave the link for it to power press I went to iTunes and downloaded the link RSS feed for assessment, iTunes has approved the upload and this unique podcast is now on iTunes. I have a few questions:

  Publication of 49 new blog posts for others 49 podcasts downloaded on iTunes?

  Do I need to go to iTunes 49 times and him give the link of the RSS feed appears each time I publish another blog article? If so, the RSS link is always the same. How iTunes knows that there is a new podcast?

  As I understand it, the RSS file is an .xml file. It was created by mechanical press. Where is this file which is located? I want to watch it. I've looked everywhere in my server space and cannot find the .xml files.

  Display on iTunes isn't quite right. How can I tweak it? I want to change the graphics and some other entries on the posting of iTunes.

  Now for the site non-Wordpress how I produce the RSS feed file? I won't be able to use PowerPress.

  Thanks for your help. I'm a beginner at this, as you can tell.

  OK: it's important to get the right terminology, or we will go along in circles. Your links feed a podcast called "Cobweb computer Services Inc. The podcast is all 'wrapper' for the episodes; you have so far only an episode. Shortly, you will add more (as you say there is a lot on the site) and these should be called episodes, no podcasts. In order to add more episodes, all you have to do is add to food. No action is necessary. Subscribers will see the new episodes fast enough; Usually, it takes 1 to 2 days for new episodes to appear in the store. The store will recognize that there are new episodes without having to tell him.

  I guess you don't really want your podcast to be called "Cobweb computer Services Inc." since the site is called "Hope and Passion" so you can change the title in the "title" tag in the feed.

  Your stream is in your server, cobwebinc.com, in a folder (directory) called "podcast" in a folder called 'feed' in a folder at the root level called "wordpress". To make changes in the diet, you just need to change the details everywhere where you originally entered them and re-post the flow. I can't advise on the specifics of the use of Wordpress or PowerPress. Blubrry have a help to the http://forum.blubrry.com forum

  The other site seems to be exactly that, a site with no RSS service. You will probably need to use Wordpress or one of the other services or programs of creation of podcast and annotates them manually.

• Newby Question about downloading Podcasts and play on music video more

  I get my new podcasts from a variety of sites of English radio (six or seven), including CBC, BBC, NPR, etc..

  I use MS Vista with FLOW RSS to download.

  I noticed that some of the podcasts automatically from one to the other on my video play, and I noticed that some of them are grouped in the other subdirectories, and I have to fix each subdirectory to play these. What I understand reading this Sansa community site, my camera Clip done automatically for me.

  On my very old mp3 player, he would like to download all my podcasts in a directory and I play a podcast to the next, non-stop. For me, it was easy and without violin.

  I discovered, yesterday, that if I had used entered MS Vista the-properties of the mp3 files downloaded and selected the 'details' and them selected "remove properties and personal information", as all the podcasts would change and liquidate showing them in two folders on my Clip 1. 2 podcasts. Records

  I have two questions;

  1. I lose all the features on the Clip, when I do this? I noticed, that he still remembered when I left a podcast before the end, and I want back to him

  2. is there an easier way for me to get all the podcasts in one place, so I can not listen to stop without changing the records? and without having to delete the properties and each of them?

  Help is very appreciated. Thank you

  "Not all of them appear in the directory"Podcast"on the Clip. All except a show in the directory "Folder" on the Clip. "

  If they are in the folder podcast on the player, they should all be available in the submenu of podcast. Some may be listed as unknown though, if their title tag is missing. When you navigate using the submenu podcast, this is done using the title tag. Why edit tags that may be missing or in error is a good idea.

  You could use the navigation in the files and play them all if there are no subfolders.

  However, the best idea is to group the podcasts in albums (with each file in an album with the same tag to album). Then you can read the album of podcasts as a series. The advantage of this is that if you read some files from podcast in the series, music, then turn off the player, when you return to the submenu podcast, the reader will remember what podcast file is changed during playback.

• BlackBerry Smartphones newby questions

  I just took a Curve 8330.  It's very different from what I'm used to, and so I have a few questions.

  1. I use Outlook Express to my main e-mail address.  It doesn't have a fixed schedule.  Does anyone have a suggestion as to what I should look for in a calendar that I can sync the BB to?  Is there a recommendation on a particular calendar?

  2. I probably exaggerated email accounts on my BB, but at this stage I am not prepared to cancel because of personal and professional e-mails on the BB.  Am I missing something?  Seems to me that I should be able, through BlackBerry Desktop Manager, go to my BB and delete e-mail messages using my PC.

  3. I can't use the Application Loader for the 8330.  The message is «BlackBerry Desktop Software has no peripheral BB software for the device you have connected to the computer...» "When I check updates is not one for the 8330.  I went to Verizon.  They say they get the BB site update.  Is there another way to get the update of the software?  Is there another way to download apps?

  4. I looked on the BB site for an email about these issues, but cannot find the link.  Where is - am I on it?

  Not a bad idea at all, the only stupid question is one that is not asked

  IBM Red Book: Introduction to Storage Area Networks

  -Learn the basics of SAN terminology and component uses!

  -Introduce the benefits of a San can bring!

  -Discover the IBM TotalStorage SAN portfolio!

  Summary

  The explosion of data created by businesses today makes storage a priority of strategic investment for companies of all sizes. As storage is a priority, three key initiatives have emerged:

  -Simplification of the infrastructure: Consolidation, virtualization, and automated with IBM TotalStorage management can help simplify infrastructure and an organization to achieve its business objectives.

  -Information lifecycle management: management of business data through its lifecycle from conception to elimination in a way that optimizes the storage and access at the lowest cost.

  -Business continuity: maintaining access to data at all times, protect strategic assets and adjustment of collection costs based on the value of risk and trade information.

  Storage is no longer a reflection afterthought. Too much is at stake. Companies are looking for alternative ways to effectively manage the growth of data volumes and to make these data available throughout the company; This is propelling the removal of storage in the network. Moreover, the growing complexity of the management of a large number of storage devices and vast amounts of data is driving greater business value in software and services.

  Current estimates of data can be managed and made available is growing at 60 percent a year, it is here where a storage network (SAN) enters the arena. In simple terms, without are the infrastructure of primary storage for today's global economy. Without offering simplified storage management, scalability, flexibility, availability and access to improved, movement and backup data.

  Red Book from IBM provides an introduction to the San. It illustrates where without are today, which are major industry organizations and standards bodies active in the world of SAN and it positions best-of-breed approach IBM full to allow without with its products and services. It presents some of the most common and characteristic terms present in a San.

• iPad stylus newby question

  I confused directions to charge my iPad pen and it is glued directly on the lightning of my Air card; After two minutes I checked it and it was hot. I deleted and loaded with the adapter in the right way.

  Is there a chance that the pen has been damaged?

  I was surprised to see that after 10 minutes, she went from 25% to 100% of full charge. I hope this is normal behavior (and I've not messed up its sensors). It does not work as expected like a feather at least (so far). TX

  You are supposed to be able to charge Apple pencil directly from the connector of the lightning.

  I wonder did really plug into an iPad Air? The pencil is designed to work with the iPad Pro only.

  Anyway it wasn't supposed to be burning hot, I checked it on the Apple Store.

• Newby question about the Quick Selection tool

  I have what I think must be a simple background to remove a portrait.  This photo was taken near a white wall and a flash shadow was precipitated on the left.  The quick selection tool has no problem of selection of wall area in a mask.  The problem is when you try to register the shadow of the hood.   He has no problem with the hair.  There is a color difference evident between the hood and its shadow and its quite a different gray in the red channel.  Is it possible to adjust the tool quick selection to recognize different color or gray?

  TIA.

  Open the document you want to move to the first.

  Then return to this document (as in the screenshot), right-click on the selected layer in layers, "Duplicate layer", select the document target destination, press OK. Your layer, so that the mask is moved to the new document.

• Newby question Super base

  I have three items under my graph custom in a Flex application, a text, a label and another label that shows the current time. Flex is forcing me to place them on different lines for some reason any and requires each object be centered horizontally. But I want them all on the same line side by side. I do not see a property to adjust, can anyone direct me to where I can change this behavior?

  Because the provision of default Application is vertical, you must change this absolute property, allowing you to position its children explicitly using the x and y properties, or you may have used canvas using container in the application, which does the same thing.
