Production server Windows 2003 clone

I would clone a domain-joined windows 2003 server, but I am unable to run the command sysprep on the clone because it is joined to a domain, and I don't want to leave the area and the production server of the effect.

I need to do some tests and don't want to ruin the production so server basically, I need a another copy of the server added to the domain with a name different/sid etc.

Thanks for your help.

Wow, it runs now...

I had to delete the file sharing and printing for Microsoft Networks service, and then restart the Server service, and then run sysprep.

  • HP officejet pro 8600 server windows 2003

    I'm managing a server hosted by running windows server 2003.  I have a user connects via RDP and trying to map printers.  She has a HP OfficeJet Pro 8600.  I can't find drivers for Windows Server 2003.  I tried the XP driver but it will not be installed.  It says I have the wrong software.

    Does anyone have ideas how I can get around this?  I looked into some universal drivers, but they don't make much sense to me.

    I had the same problem when you try to install the self-extracting download driver. OS is not compatible...

    But it's the right driver, you just have to make a way...

    Download and install the driver of HP. (use a third-party zip tool such as 7zip to extract to the folder)

    (http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL40127/mp-97860-2/OJ8600_Basic_x86_619.exe)

    Open Printers and faxes on your 2003 Server window.

    Click file, and then select the print server. Install the driver from here. (x 86) Use have disk, and then point to your folder of extraction. Just use the Autorun.inf file.

    He has installed the driver and allowed the printer redirect RDP even a Windows 7 PC

    >

    SSH is not a technology allowing to connect to databases.

    You will need to install an Oracle client on the Linux server, implemented a tnsnames.ora file that includes the necessary connection information for the database of Windows Server.

    See the Linux 11 g Client install Guides here - http://www.oracle.com/pls/db111/portal.portal_db?selected=11&frame=

    Then read through the 11 g Net Services (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/network.111/b28316/toc.htm) Administrator's Guide for an overview of connectivity.

  • Virtual machine does not start the Server Windows 2003 Std ISO file?

    Hello

    I am trying to create a virtual Windows 2003 machine, I created the ISO file, downloaded on my ISO library and connected the CDROM drive for the ISO file.

    When I boot the maching, I select the start menu and select the CDROM drive the virtual machine starts the ISO?

    The continuous boot just on the network card boot.

    It's as if the virtual machine does not see the CDROM drive?

    I use folder2iso

    To me, it sounds as if the ISO created may not be bootable! How did you create the ISO file?

    I wouldn't recommend VMware Converter. It is not supposed to copy all your data only to resize a disk so that you can use extpart or gparted for do it for you.

    FVO-Export is an option. However, since you have an another data store with the free space on the disk, you can also simply copy the existing virtual machine to this data store.

    What I'd probably do:

    • stop the VM (s) located on the data store
    • remove existing snapshots
    • remove the VM (s) of the inventory (right-click the virtual machine-> "Remove from inventory")
    • copy the files of the virtual machine to the another data store (using the browser data store)
    • Rename the original files (to make sure there is no more reference)
    • Add the VM (s) to the inventory (right-click the file vmx in the news/copied folder in the browser data store)
    • Power on the VM (s) to make sure that everything is ok
    • delete the 'old' records

    There may be other options too, however the steps above should ensure that the copy process is properly and it is save to remove the now empty data store.

  • Extremely slow CHKDSK on external Drobo B1200i connected to a Windows 2003 Server)

    (I have a Drobo B1200i related to an unresolved external server) windows 2003 Server), with 9 x 4, double redundancy to discs. The scoreboard shows that all drives are healthy. The player has 2 LUNs. One of the units is 16TO and used to store data, some are small files and some are large files. We found errors when you try to save this logical unit, which prompted running chkdsk. Run us CHKDSK G:/x/f/r it was launched on 22 may at 18:00. He ran steps 1-3 to 25 may, making hundreds of repairs (deleting entry index... recovery of file... orphans replacing non-security IDS valid... Insert the attribute data to place...)

    He has been blocked since May 25 (for 3.5 days) 60% of the step 4 of 5, moving very slowly. Currently, it reads "(14191283 of 20660608 processed files) all 60 percent" the number of processed files remains to be the same number of hours and moves upward then 5000 files and then a few hours left in the same issue for others... At this rate, it may take 3-4 months at the end!

    My questions are the following:

    1 - is it normal to take this amount of time with the large disk like mine (16 TB)?

    2. is there a risk of data loss if I stop it now?

    3. is there a chance that what has already been solved during the early stages is all that was needed, and that interrupts it the process now will be harmless?

    4. If I stop the process now and errors persist, and I decide to run CHKDSK again, it run faster for the early stages and get to the current point faster than the 6 days it has taken to get this far? or it will take another 6 days to join the current point?

    This issue is beyond the scope of this site and must be placed on Technet or MSDN

    Hello

    I m wondering that you want to install Windows server on a laptop...

    In any case, it is a known problem and also happens on XP and Vista. To fix this you need to use the laptop SATA driver or you change the SATA mode in the BIOS by AHCI compatible, then you don't need a driver.

    Here are some instructions that might be useful for you:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD9401AN0000R01.htm

    I do not know if you will get a driver for Server 2003 but you can try the XP driver and in the worst cases, it must use compatible mode m.

    Let me give you a little advice: If you have other questions, use the forum search. You can find hundreds of discussions about this.

    Hello

    As mentioned above, you will not find the Toshiba drivers designed for Windows 2003 R2 server.
    But don t worry, and don t give up.
    Windows XP drivers must simply be compatible and you should be able to install the Xp drivers on the Win2003 Server operating system.
