Question about task scheduled task to create snapshots of computer virtual

Hello

We run 5.1 ESXi hosts.

There is a requirement of applications consultant to do instant schedule for a particular virtual machine.

I have set up the scheduled task, BUT would like to know is possible to specify how long the snapshot schedule to run?  As: 3 days OR between 01/05/2015 and on 05/03/2015?

Your opinion is requested.

Thank you

You can write a shell Script that will take the system time and do the comparison if it's more than an hour, you can trigger 'vim - cmd vmsvc/snapshot.create vmid' with the name of snapshot of timestamp.

  • Questions about the right way to create a logon page?

    What is the best approach to take for the implementation of a portlet to logon to a WLP 10.3.2 Portal? A portlet of connection must be created in it's own book, and then once a user is logged on, the Portal main book would be displayed?

    Or should I put a login portlet it's own page then once a user is logged on, hide this page and the main page of the portal?

    I'm looking for the best approach.

    Hello
    Once a user is authenticated in my portal, how to assign a role to the user?
    1. given that the user is already there in the security, you can add this user to the role of testers immediately. Say, you create the user weblogic1. Add this user to the role of tester. So when it connects, it is automatically part of this role.

    By example, if I create a Portal administration Console TESTER role and determine that the authenticated user must belong to the TESTER role, how would assign the role to the user dynamically?
    NOW, dynamically if you don't know which user connects and if you want to add to the role of TESTER, you should do this using the API. With the help of API, you can get the list of all the roles he belongs to and if it's not part of the role of tester, add sound ID user to the role. All APIs are here. You will have this logic just after the authentication code. As you will have in Login pageflow connect action that performs the authentication. Then the next set of lines will be to add this user to the role.

    I'm confident, you can do so by the API. Just look for the API in the docs online. I not remember exact set of classes, but they are there. Do some research. I will share if I can find these APIs.

  • question about two versions of lightroom on the same computer

    Hi all

    I used the C/C version of lightroom on my desk for the last year or two, but I still have my old 5.7.1 version installed. is it possible to uninstall the old version without changing anything in the C/C version?

    Thank you

    Vicki

    Yes, if you are satisfied with the way that LR 6/cc is currently running, you can uninstall LR 5.x.

    During the installation of the major version upgrades (5.x to 6.0), the Adobe software is always a side-by-side installation.

  • question about technique

    Hello

    Have a question about the best way to create a document.

    I make a menu for a small restrauant.  He wants to do on 8 1/2 x 11 and trifolded.

    Q. will it be a problem if I have created six 8 1/2 x 11 documents and then place each one of six in the correct Panel documentation in the doc of trifolded (and do a fitting > content to adapt the framework to scale?)

    Now, you may be wondering why would I not only work on the three himself and forget the 6 docs.  Well, it seems just easier to work on something that I can see and easily managed without having to constantly zoom (as I would on the Trifolded 8 1/2 x 11 doc).  Then, just take one place and fitting for the great doc in the right panel of the portfolios in three sides.

    In addition, there a chance that he may want to go with the pages of 8 1/2 x 11 and forget the smaller print trifold.

    Anyway, I would appreciate your comments.

    Bob

    I see no problem with the creation of six separate documents and placing them in every panel of the 8.5 X 11 trifold. As long as each placed the document is created with the same size as a 1/3 to three components Panel. And I don't know it is not an international consortium of creating document evil overlords who will expose you to do.

    However since you asked to talk technical, it would be considered a little on the non-standard side if sent to a printer. It could even be seen as hackney and amateur, but not too many print shops will tell you that because you pay for your print job.

    However, this is not the place to pick up emotion a back rub for how to create a file. You would be better served by making the complete document (one document) and learning of the rapid means of keyboard shortcuts to navigate through the document. Using the space bar to activate the tool hand for the panorama, using the SPACEBAR and the command key together to bring up the zoom tool, by adding a shift of this combo to zoom back. These techniques can be very fluid navigation and eliminates the unnecessary task to create 7 documents where there should be only one. After a few days of repeated use these key combos should seem like second nature, and you'll wonder how you did without them before.

  • Windows 7 Task Scheduler is not wake the portable computer at the scheduled time

    Instead of stopping my laptop, I put it to sleep at night. Later, the laptop is expected to execute the sequence of tasks scheduled in my windows-7:

    1. 04:00, run a task "A". To perform this task, the laptop awakens from his sleep because "task" was to "wake the computer to run this task" activated.
    2. 05:06, Hibernate (not to be confused with sleep) the laptop by running the command "rundll32.exe powrprof.dll, SetSuspendState 0,0,0.
    3. 05:30, running a "task B". To perform this task, the laptop is supposed to wake up from hibernation, because this "task B" has also the "wake the computer to run this task" activated.

    The problem:

    Faithfully, the laptop awakens from his sleep at 04:00 to run "task A". However, it is not always faithful to wake up from hibernation at 05:30. 3 days (April 13), he stood at 05:46 instead of 05:30. Today, he was not awake to the top even by 06:05!

    Then, there are following around this interesting phenomenon :

    1. Today at 06:05, when I found that the cell had not awakened, I checked if the food was THERE... it wasn't. As soon as I turned on the power, he automatically stood. When he awoke, he showed that the battery is charged to 64%! Which implies, my manual operation of switches WE supply should not have been necessary in the first place!

      Earlier, on 13 April, however, no manual intervention of any kind has happened and the computer had its power supply IT throughout the night. Yet he stood AFTER the scheduled time.

    2. Then, this Act of waking from hibernation after the scheduled time is fascinating to me. From my point of view, the computer must either wake up on time, or it does not wake up at all because I chose NEITHER option "Run task as soon as possible after a regular check is not respected" , OR the ' if the task fails, restart every ' option.

    Here, I would like to bring a few details & confirmations:

    1. There is no defect in the backup provided by the battery of my laptop because it provides a safe backup for about 2 to 3 hours. Even if I'm typing this message, actually on battery, not on a current area of my laptop power supply.
    2. I usually leave the computer power mobile power during the night as a precaution against the batteries running out of power. Even on 13 April, it was YOU. Last night was the first exception to this regime, which began 21 days ago.
    3. I don't have either the "start the task only if the computer is powered" or the "Stop if the computer switches to battery power" options enabled for a task planned in question.
    4. I also have the advanced power settings "allow wake timers" is set to enable for "on battery" and "Plugged In".

    So, I have the following questions:

    1. Why computer faithfully to wake up from its sleep, but not as faithfully to wake up from hibernation?
    2. The State of food plays a role any in this Act of waking from hibernation? Does it matter if the computer is on battery or plugged when waking up when "start it the task if the computer is powered" or the option "stop if the computer switches to battery power" enabled?
    3. Finally, what can I do to correct this erratic behavior?

    Right - a scheduled task cannot be configured to wake the system from hibernation.

    In the properties of the task, the Condition is "wake the computer to run this task":

    The key words here are "Wake" and "Sleep".

    When your system is in sleep, he is still able to get a stimulus like a click of the mouse or keyboard stroke to wake up or a scheduled task to wake him up.

    The only way you can be awakened, it's if you sleep - you cannot be reactivated if you are hibernating (aka powered off completely = death).

    You cannot use a ST to wake the computer after Hibernation.

    You might be able to set an option in the BIOS to power the system at some point and have then an era channel a few minutes after this date.

    You may be able to configure your router to send a WOL packet (wake on LAN) to the system to a point and then have an era handle a few minutes after that date.

    Useless answers?

    Some often banned users has some good tips:

    Ignore responses that begin with the words "Hi" or "Hello" contain methods and steps, ignore phrases that start with the word 'try' and responses that end with the words "check if it helps" you can save yourself a lot of time and frustration.

  • Question about snapshots and virtual machines

    Hi all

    I have a small question about snapshots. I use VMware for about 6 months and I read about snapshots and how they work but still have a question to make sure that I understand how it works and it will work the way I think it works.

    I have a Windows 2003 server, which is a virtual machine. I have an application that uses MSDE database. I want to upgrade the database to MS SQL 2005, but to do this I need to back up the MSDE database, uninstall MSDE, and then install SQL 2005 and move the SQL database. This happens on the same VM.

    What I was thinking if I well Snapshots correctly is to snap turned the virtual machine before doing anything. Then do my upgrade steps and see if everything works. If its all messed up so I should be able to return to my shot and everything should be the way he had. What is the good? One of the main reasons I moved the server VM was because of this upgrade.

    After reading the documentation for the snapshots, it's how I undestood it. Pretty much any change could be reversed with snapshots. I wish just they had put in a few examples in the PDF file. Also it would be the same for all type of grades of the OS? Could I snapshot a Windows 2000 Server, and then "in the upgrade of the square" to Windows 2003? I've cloned a VM to do this but was curious about whether snapshots would be just as easy.

    Thanks for your help.

    That is right.

    Exactly the same thing for the upgrades of the OS.

    Perhaps the most important thing with the snapshots is to keep an eye on them and don't let them sit too long or become too big.  You have described the use cases are very good uses for snapshots.  Just make sure you have a solid plan with a schedule set, so that you can come back or validate changes before the snapshot becomes too large.

    Good luck!

  • Question about Equallogic snapshots.

    Hello forum

    I could not confirm this, but instant never need to commit anything to the basic volume?

    Lets say I have 10 snapshots and delete the oldest? There will be a load of e/s to validate these instant changes?

    Also, if someone could point me to any type of indepth explanation of this technique of snapshot, I would be interested to read all that.

    Thank you!

    N ° current data are already on the base volume.  There is nothing to commit.   Only if you are completely restoring a volume from a snapshot will be there in writing for the base volume.

    Solution title TABLE: how the snapshot reserve space is allocated and used

    Solution details Snapshot Reserve Allocation and use

    -------------------------------------

    In a series group PS, snapshots can protect against errors, of a volume

    virus or the database. A cliché represents the content of a volume

    at the time you created the snapshot. Creating a snapshot does not disturb

    access to the volume, and the snapshot is instantly available allowed

    iSCSI initiators.

    Before you can create snapshots for a volume, you must allocate space (called

    snapshot pool) for snapshots. You set the value of the snapshot reserve

    When you create or modify a volume. Snapshot reserve benefits from the same

    as the volume of the pool data.

    When snapshot data consume entire supply snapshot, the Group remove is

    the oldest snapshots to free up space for new images or sets the volume and

    snapshots offline, according to the policy you selected for instant recovery

    space.

    The functionality for creating snapshots is called hybrid allocate when writing.

    Operation of sharing and snapshot of the page

    -----------------------------------

    A PS Series Group organizes the physical storage into logical segments called pages.

    Each page is composed of several logical blocks. This is similar to the way file

    systems combine areas of physical disk in 'clusters' or 'chunks '. Each page has

    a reference count which records the number of volumes and snapshots that share

    the page.

    When you create a volume, the group creates an internal table, called the volume

    table, which contains pointers to pages that use the volume. When you create

    a snapshot of a volume, the group creates a snapshot table by making a copy of

    the volume table, which is usually an operation in memory that the Group

    run in a transactional manner. For each page of volume in use, the support group increases the

    reference count to indicate that the volume and the snapshot share page.

    Because the group does not move or copy the data or allocates a new pages, photos

    are fast and efficient.

    Reserve of the snapshot stores the differences between the data on the volume and snapshot data

    (in addition to differences between the data of multiple snapshots). When you

    first create a snapshot, the page for the volume and the snapshot tables are

    In brief identical copies and the snapshot consumes no snapshot

    reserve. A reading of the same logical block of the volume application or the

    snapshot returns the same data because the application is reading from the same page.

    However, if you write a page that has a volume and a snapshot of share, snapshot

    reserve is consumed.

    Here's a simplified example of a snapshot operation. In general, no.

    additional I/o operations are needed to manage the data volume or snapshot.

    However, other internal operations can occur due to virtualization and

    data balancing on berries of the PS Series.

    If an application performs a write to 8 KB for a volume containing a snapshot, the

    Group:

    1. determine what page is modified by the write operation.

    2 - If the page is not shared, writes the data to the page.

    3. If the page is shared:

    . (a) allocates a new page of disk space and reduces the instant to reserve

    . the volume of a single page.

    . (b) update the page of volume table to point to the newly allocated page.

    . (c) mark the newly allocated page as having new data on the volume and the references of the

    . original page for unchanged data.

    . (d) writes the data to the new page.

    When writing is complete, if you read the data on the volume, you have access to the

    new page and new data. However, if you read the same logical block of the

    Instant, you get the original data, because the snapshot will always point towards the

    original page. Similarly, if you set a snapshot online, write to the snapshot.

    feature hybrid write protects the original data volume by allocating

    a new page for the new snapshot data.

    Only the first page of writing to a volume shared (or snapshot) consumes additional

    snapshot reserve. Each subsequent entry is considered identical to a writing on a

    non-shared the page because the original data are already protected.

    Functionality similar to hybrid allocate when writing is used in cloning operations.

    However, unlike when you create a snapshot, cloning a volume immediately

    consumes space additional group. If a clone is moved to another pool, data

    is copied during the operation of moving pool.

    Restoring a Volume from a snapshot

    ----------------------------------

    Because of the layout table, restore a volume from a snapshot is very

    quick. First of all, the group automatically creates a snapshot of the volume by copying

    the volume table to a new table of snapshot. Then the Group transposes the page tables

    the volume and the snapshot you selected for the restore operation. NO.

    additional space is required, and no data is moved.

    Deletion of Volumes and Snapshots

    ------------------------------

    Because volumes and snapshots to share pages, if you delete a volume, you

    automatically remove all the clichés associated with the volume.

    You can manually delete snapshots (for example, if you need more of)

    snapshot data). In addition, the group can delete snapshots automatically in the

    following situations:

    1 - failure instant free reserve. If the snapshot data consume the snapshot

    . reserve, the group either deletes the oldest snapshots to free up space for new

    . snapshots or sets the volume and snapshots in offline mode, according to the policy

    . you have chosen for the snapshot space recovery.

    2 - maximum number of snapshots, created from an agreed timetable. If you set up a

    . timetable for the creation of snapshots, you can specify the maximum number of

    . photos you want to keep. Once the program creates the maximum number

    . clichés, the group will delete the oldest snapshot for planning

    . to create a new snapshot.

    Snapshot are deleted in the background queue. The group travels

    the snapshot page table and decremented the reference count on every shared page.

    Any page that has a zero reference count is released into free space. Pages

    with a zero reference count are not released because they are shared with

    the volume or other snapshots.

    Because stereotypes can be automatically deleted, if you want to keep the

    given to a snapshot, you can clone the snapshot.

    Reserve snapshots use agreement

    ------------------------------------

    The snapshot reserve is consumed only if you write a shared volume or snapshot

    page. However, it is difficult to establish a correlation between the amount of data written in one

    volume (or snapshot) with the amount of instant reserve consumed as a result.

    especially if you have multiple snapshots.

    Because the pages consist of several logical blocks, size e/s and distribution

    volume merge affect overall performance of e/s in addition to the snapshot

    reserve its use.

    For example, do much written about a narrow range of logical blocks in a volume

    consumes a relatively low amount of reserve of the snapshot. This is because as Scripture

    the same logic block more than once, does not require not additional snapshot

    reserve.

    However, doing random number wrote a range of logical blocks in a

    volume can consume a large amount of reserve of the snapshot, because many other

    pages are affected.

    In general, use instant reserve depends on the following:

    1. number of entries that occur in the volume (or snapshot) and at least one

    . snapshot exists. In general, more Scriptures tend to use more snapshot reserve.

    . Although multiple writes to the same logical block do not require additional

    . space.

    2 - the range of logical blocks, on which occur the Scriptures. Written in a wide range of

    . logical blocks tend to use more instant reserve written in a narrow

    . rank, because more of the written word are to different pages.

    3. number of snapshots of the volume and timing of the write operations. Most

    . snapshots that you create more snapshot reserve is necessary, unless there is

    . few entries on the volume or snapshots.

    4 - age of snapshot. Snapshots older tend to consume more snapshot reserve only

    . the clichés of recent because the group must retain the original data for a

    . longer time.

    Design Snapshot reserve

    -----------------------

    You cannot create snapshots until you book instant space. Snapshot reserve

    is set as a percentage of the reserve volume (space) for the

    volume.

    When you create a volume, by default, the volume uses instant group-wide

    reserve adjustment. (The reserve in the scale default setting is 100%. You

    can change this default value.) You can change the reserve snapshot setting when you

    create a volume or later, even if the volume is in use.

    Although the snapshot reserve is not used until the volume or writing snapshot occur, it

    is consumed immediately free pool space. For example, if you create a

    fully allocated (not thin provisioned) 200 GB volume and specify a snapshot of 50%

    pool of reserve, free space is immediately reduced to 300 GB (200 GB for the volume

    reserve and 100 GB for Snap reserve), even if there are no pages in use.

    Therefore, before you create a volume, you should consider how many snapshot

    reserves, if any, to assign to the volume. The reserve of the snapshot set to zero (0)

    If you do not want to create snapshots.

    The optimal size of the snapshot reserve depends on the amount and type of

    changes in the volume and the number of shots you want to keep.

    By example, if you set the snapshot reserve 100%, and then create a snapshot.

    You can write to each byte of the volume without missing snapshot

    reserve. However, if you create another snapshot and then write in each byte of

    the volume, the first snapshot is deleted in disk space available for the new snapshot. If

    you set the instant reserve at 200%, there would be a sufficient reserve of snapshot

    for the two snapshots.

    A very conservative strategy in terms of instant reserve sizing is to put the snapshot

    book value at 100 times the number of shots you want to keep. This

    guarantees that keep you at least the number of snapshots, regardless of the

    the number of entries on the volume. However, this strategy is generally allocates

    book an excessive amount of snapshot, because that rarely crush you all the

    the data in a volume during the lifetime of a snapshot.

    The best way to instant size reserves is to assign an initial value to the reserve

    and watch how instant you can keep over a period of time specified under a

    normal workload. If you use tables to create snapshots, allow the

    calendar of work for several days.

    To get an initial value for a snapshot reserve volume, you must estimate

    the quantity and the type of entries in volume and the number of snapshots, you want

    keep. For example:

    -If you wait a few Scriptures or writings which are concentrated in a narrow range

    . logical blocks and you want to keep only a few shots, start with a value

    . 30%.

    -If you wait several entries or entries that are random in a wide range of

    . logical blocks and you want to keep more than a few shots, start with a value

    . 100%.

    If the snapshots are deleted until you reach the desired number of snapshots,

    increase the percentage of snapshot reserve. If you reach the desired number

    shots without consuming much of the instant free reserve, decrease the

    percentage of reserve snapshot. Continue to follow instant reserve and

    adjustments as needed.

    How Thin Provisioning button Snapshot Reserve

    ----------------------------------------------

    The snapshot reserve is based on a percentage of volume reserve (allocated space

    a volume). For a volume fully provisioned, the reserve volume is equal to the

    stated volume size. However, a thin volume put into service, the volume of reserve

    is initially very inferior to the reported size (default is subject to minimum volume

    10% of the reported size) and increases as the written volume occur.

    If you change a thin volume supplied in a volume fully provisioned, the

    amount of reserved snapshot increases automatically, because the volume of reserve

    increase in the size of the stated volume.

    If you change a volume of fully provisioned to thin-provisioned, the amount of

    snapshot of reserve decreases automatically, because the volume of reserve declines.

    However, if the snapshot resulting reserves will be too small to store all the

    existing snapshots, the group will automatically increase the instant reserve

    percentage of value that preserves all existing snapshots.

    Reducing the use of instant reserve

    -------------------------------

    Over time, you can reduce the use of instant reserve by periodically (for example,

    Once a month) defragmentation of databases and file systems. Defrag operations

    try to consolidate segments of files in a volume and, consequently, to reduce the scope

    logical blocks addresses used in the pages of the volume.

    Defragment the data read operations from one place and then write data to a new

    location. So increased use of instant reserve during and immediately

    after defragmentation, because existing snapshots will use more of the usual

    amount of the snapshot reserve. However, snapshots created after defragmentation

    operation must use less instant reserve, because the data on the volume are more contiguous.

    When a volume is highly fragmented, potential reduction of the snapshot reserve

    use can be dramatic, especially after removing the large before you defragment

    snapshots. Defrag operations can also reduce the I/O load on the group,

    because the contiguous data makes more efficient i/o operations, in order to improve the

    e/s overall performance.

    Latest defragmenters are good to reduce the fragmentation that is not seeking to be

    too thorough. Some defragmenters also try to combine the inactive data

    further restricting the likelihood of changes to shared pages. However, are not

    Defragment too frequently.

    Sector alignment may also affect the use of snapshot of the space, especially in

    larger volumes. File systems must be correctly aligned with the sector. It comes

    described in technical reports for VMware and Windows environments.

  • Cancel tasks to create the task of the user

    Hi all

    I'm running on an issue that I'm hoping to get a glimpse. I created a RESOURCE1 resource with a process definition that has a task to create a user. The task of creating a user has called cleanup task cancellation. Here's what I do:

    1. I use the administration console to manually configure RESOURCE1 to User1.
    2. something (voluntarily because I test an error cases) does not and the task of creating a user gets rejected. This causes the State of RESOURCE1 for User1 be "supply".
    3 using the administration console, I revoke RESOURCE1 for User1. This causes the State of the task to create a user to be 'cancelled '.

    The problem is that after step 3, the cleanup task did not run. The documentation (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10391_01/doc.910/e10363/promgt.htm#sthref179) stipulates the following:

    + "You are using the tab of cancellation/reinstatement for the following: to set the process tasks that are triggered when the current process task is canceled." The tasks of these processes are deemed that cancel the tasks... For example, if the process task to create a user has a status of canceled, then the remove user cancel task is triggered. » +


    You have any ideas why the cancellation task does not run in my example?

    Thank you!

    The task must have a status ended for the cancellation/recovery run.

  • Question about the .vmx file created on ESXi

    I'm trying to automate the creation of a virtual machine and take a snapshot. I use the vSphere SDK Perl.

    The problem I faced is if I create a virtual machine called TestVM, the .vmx file created on the ESXi is TestVM_1.vmx instead of TestVM.vmx due to which my snapshot creation fails.

    I faced the same problem, if I manually create the virtual computer. If there is no other computer virtual with the same name.

    • Expand the size of the vmdk for the partition to the OS (c :)) drive

    • Snapshot of the virtual machine

    • Start virtual machine

    • Use third-party utility to extend the C: drive

        • Something goes wrong in the process and partition is corrupted.

    Returning on the snapshot would recover this scenario?

    My feeling is Yes, as snapshots operate at the block, and when the snaphsot, everything was ok

    The propronents or opponents?

    See you soon

    In this scenario, go back to the snapshot will restore the State of the virtual machine before it laying in the guest OS.  I just confirmed it myself in my lab.  From the start I had an error on the computer is not present in AD, account but it is probably because it is an old VM, I have not turned on for some time.

    One thing to remember is that even if the snapshot will return the guest OS of return to the State before you lie down, the VMDK itself file will still be extended.  If you want to cancel you would probably use VMware Converter to create a new virtual machine.

  • Question about OWA scripts - how much time do need to run or not at all

    Just a question about OWA on Exchange 2010 scripts. I have a site and unique Exchange Server. I noticed that we have a powershell script scheduled in the Task Scheduler running daily that defines all the mailbox OWA strategy. This policy is defined in the EMC access client/organizational Configuration (EMC) tab.

    My question is... If the policy is already configured in the access client/organizational Configuration tab, should this powershell script run at all?  Not all new users get this strategy by default (since we have only one policy OWA) If you enable Outlook Web access on the mailbox of the user in the appearance of the mailbox tab?  My thought is that the powershell script and the calendar was just a postponement of the old Exchange 2003 for strategies for the OWA...

    Thank you.

  • Question about cloud connectors

    We try to create a cloud to Eloqua connector. I read the CloudConnectorSampleGuide. I have a few questions about the expected data models and models of general implementation.

    Configuration of the connector of the cloud

    • The CC stores the identification information for each configured CC step Eloquya Eloqua?
      • What are the guidelines for the safe password storage? (I can't store the passwords as dirty one-way-hash that I need the password during execution.  The two-way hash gives an illusion of security but is not better than the plaintext).
    • When the CC is configured, where credentials should take place between the 1st and the 2nd screen? (i.e. as a hidden form field, session cookie cookie/etc.)
    • Eloqua warns the CC when a step is deleted?

    Cloud connector performance

    • What is the average number of steps configured Single that manages the CC?
    • Is it possible for a CC to have 1000 s and unique not configured to query?
    • What are the guidelines for scalability when the connector has to travel 1000 steps configured and survey? The CC requires a worker architecture to manage a large number of configured steps?
    • Are there best practices around the CC recovery hangs
      • For example: CC acquires the State waiting for members and moves to the current State. The CC blocks before the end of the stage. What is the approach suggested for

    recovery of the tasks in the current handling during recovery state? (assuming I have multiple instances of CC of the Eloqua poll). Is the connector of cloud supposed to maintain States of WIP to manage recovery correctly?

    Dmitry, once again, it is entirely to the developer.  When you add contacts to a stage, they will be processed in batches.  There is no limit to how much you add, and since they are left to step up to that dealt with by the connector, how long they sit depends on how long your connector takes to do its job.  Expectations, of course the faster you can deal with the best.

  • (Basic) question about layers

    Hi all!

    I'm a little Photoshop-beginner and I have a question about layers, just as the title suggests. I have a bunch of PNG files which are the design of what happens in the UI (user interface) for an app Anyhow, I need to break down each graphic element in the files (for example, the logos, the "buttons", the small images) in different layers. How this is done more efficiently?

    Any help would be much appreciated and I hope that I have explained the task well, but if you need additional information about the files or the task, I will be happy to provide that.

    Thanks in advance,
    EM

    Use the Quick Selection tool to select each item and then press Ctrl + J (Cmd + J) that will create a separate layer. You can select with the rectangle selection rectangle if you want straight borders. Each item will have a transparent background which will allow you composite with other pictures or blank documents. Click on the symbol of the eyeball in the layers palette to the right to turn on and off and then you can view layers individually.

  • Question about subjects, books and tables of contents

    I have a question about the subjects, books and tocs. I have a project that someone else created, and my task is to create a new topic and add it to the table of contents. I created the topic, but when I generate CHM project it does not appear in the table of contents. I tried to update the table of contents. What I think (I guess) could be the problem, is the 'links to the topics', when I see the links to the topics in other areas (old) they seem to have a link to the main book, but the new one is not mine. Could you help me? Thank you!!!

    It seems that you have a manual table of contents page, rather than using the table of contents of CHM.

    The toc.htm topic that you see in your list of topics is probably where you will need to add your new topic.

    If the table of contents was already populated when you inherited the project, I suspect the previous author was using it just to keep track of the topics they had added manually to the topic toc.htm - added the CHM topic in summary you did mark the column of the table of contents in the list of topics like '' Yes. '' then add to the toc.htm manual is not. Hope that makes sense.

    P.S. Just guess that it is installing what I can see in the screenshot. It is quite unusual, so I hope I'm right.
