• How to configure and use the local storage dirve and usb

  My company bought a server DMM cisco as well as 10 players of 4310 g dmp.  I tried to work on mine here to get it all working.  Let me expose what we would do first before to get into the details.

  The cental DMM will it play any content and be used to create and manage the content here at company wehre I am.  However my boss wants to send dmp individual players (4310 g) out to our factories across the country.  He wants me to be able to creat content or allow a person managing the exact address to edit the content and then push the content from the server DMM to corporate local DPM record either on local storage or attached thumb order.  I guess my questions on what are the following.

  (1) is it necessary to push the content locally for playback?  Willingness to play the content of our dmm on the wan to do lots of traffic?  Presentations could be as simple as a welcome page based presentation playing images video and flash.

  (2) based on local content would be a wise decision I'll have to see exactly how this is done poorly.  In the settings of the dmp, I see the setting of local storage and turned it on and set to read/write.  In regard to the command of thumb gose exactly how I implement that so that DPM can see?  I plug to the back of the drive, and it seems that it is active but the management console of the player I don't see anyway to actaully see if she knows the USB.

  (3) how will push the content for local storage and control of the DMM thumb?  It looks like I can send things to the storage internal if package transfer and or advanced/DPM deployment tasks or server file.  What exactly is the difference between these two?

  (4) Lastly how I actually play the local content of the dmp?  Can I set this up on a schedule of the dmm just like I would if he played the local dmm?

  I searched through the documentation, but I have not found any good docs who are clear to actually how to do these things.  So, any help would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Glen,

  Here are the answers to your questions

  1) is it nessesary to push the content locally for playback?  Will  playing content from our dmm over the wan be to much traffic?   Presentations could be as simple as a basic welcome page to a  presentation playing video and flash images.

  It is not required to push the content locally, you can also play the DMM directly. The main advantage of playing on the spot, is that you can transfer the videos several hours or days before the presentation begins to be played if you deploy content off hours and then, when he's ready to start playing the new presentation.

  If you play directly the content of the DMM, the content will be transferred at the time of the DMP starts playback. This may fail if the WAN link is saturated at that time here.

  2) If pushing the content local would be a wise decision I am having  difficulty seeing exactly how this is done.  In the dmp settings I see  the local storage setting and have it turned on and set to read/write.   As far as the thumb drive gose how exactly to I set that up so the dmp  can see it?  I plug it in the back of the player and it looks like it's  active but from the management console of the player I do not see any  way to actaully see if it knows about the usb thumb drive.

  You don't need to do anything to enable USB storage, simply plug it in. To confirm that the DMP is able to see it properly, the simplest way is to connect to the DPM via FTP and confirm that he has a «usb_2» directory This "usb_2" directory, where is the USB drive is mapped.

  3) how will I push the content to the local storage and the thumb drive  from the DMM?  It looks like I can send things to the internal storage  though the advanced tasks/deployment package and or file transfer to DMP  or server.  What exactly is the differnce between these two?

  The task of "File transfer" will just do this, transfer a file to the DMP. The deployment package is smarter and will transfer all the contents of a presentation and organize them in a structure that can be used to read the content locally. You should always use the deployment package.

  4) finally how will I actually play the content from the local dmp?  Can  I set this up on a schedual from the dmm just like I would if it was  playing from the local dmm?

  Yes, she may be scheduled as any other presentation.

  I suggest you have a look at the link below. He explains the steps required to configure the deployment package and read the content deployed with it.

  http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/video/digital_media_systems/5_x/5_2/DMM/user/guide/DMP/CDs.html#wp2188026

  I hope everything is clear now, but if you have any questions, let me know. I'll try to answer.

• Script to list the information under Configuration/Storage/datastore details

  Hello, I'm trying to create a script that returns the details data Configuration/Storage/Datastore/store info. The thing I want the script to do is list my ESX:s, data of list store names, list mpathpolicy and the details of the data store paths section in the VI client.

  Is it possible to get this in a script? Or if anyone knows how I can get information from the info of paths in Details of the data store to the VI client

  Thanks in advance

  This is possible if you use the SDK.

  The following script lists the name of host, name of DS, political path and the number of paths.

  If you need other information on the page of details in the report let me know.

  $report = @()

• Whenever I start the computer I lost the wireless capability. I get error WZC "871122". I then start the automatic Wireless Configuration service. Is there something I can do if I can't do it every time that this?

  Continually 871122 WZC error.

  Hi Shane,

  Looks like you have (or had) 3rd party software that previously managed your wireless connections, so casting service windows does not start automatically.

  See the following Article in the Microsoft KB, see if it suits it for you;

  http://support.Microsoft.com/default.aspx/KB/871122

  More precisely:

  If your computer or your wireless network card came with its own wireless network software, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start, click run, type ncpa.cpl and click OK.
  2. Click on network connections.
  3. In network connections, select your wireless connection, and then click change settings of this connection.
  4. On the wireless networks tab, click to select the Use Windows to configure my wireless network checkbox.

  To start the automatic Wireless Configuration service, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start, click run, type %SystemRoot%\system32\services.msc/s, and then click OK.
  2. Double-click Wireless Zero Configuration.
  3. In the list of Startup type , click Automatic, and then click apply.
  4. In the Service status area, click Start, and then click OK.

  Let me know how you go.

• What is normal for the backup of XP SP3 and the startup type of the removable storage service?

  I was getting ready to plan and attempt a clean full backup for tonight.  I have the backups created on several entities, currently backup but have a very stable system at the moment and wanted to try to make a clean backup file.  That day has finally arrived after been forced a corrupted system files hard drive failure "repair" critical and forced me to go back to SP1a (my Windows Genuine valid CD which I highly appreciate) in order to obtain any boot system, including safe mode and console mode.  Repair has presented many incompatibilities at the level of program and system, including the basic WMI and COM of the corruption system.  Three months later... it of time to update my backups and recovery procedures and hope that this does not happen!

  In preparation, I decided to refresh my memory on the use of the backup and by browsing the Help and Support Service Center files.  One of the first things I noticed was "storage removable service must be started for the backup works correctly."  Audit and inspection of my existing Services using computer (Local) management, I have observed that after a normal windows startup, the removable storage service is not started with manual startup type.  I use a USB drive connected as my backup media, and it is fully operational as a normally formatted NTFS data disk volume.  I have windows indexing disabled on this volume.  Is the type of service required removable storage of normal manual started?  The backup program will automatically start this service?  I know I've never manually started it myself and backups seem to work well.  Should we change the startup type to automatic?

  -Thanks, Jerry

  I would like to leave as a textbook.

  The Service will start (if capable) as soon as ntbackup.exe begins.

  If you want to see, with your Services window related to the function of RS place and it will not work and the manual.

  Click Start, run and enter in the box:

  Ntbackup.exe

  Click OK to start the backup and the Restore Wizard.

  Go back to your Services window and press F5 to refresh and SR Service should now work.

  When you exit the backup and the Restore Wizard, the RS Service stops (it may take a few minutes), and you may need to close the Services applet and reopen it to notice she's moved to manual and not running.

  You will see things like present to the event system log viewer:

  Event type: Information
  Event source: Service Control Manager
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 7036
  The removable storage service entered the running state.

  (this is when you go out the backup and the Restore Wizard and wait a few minutes... then the Service stops itself...)

  Event type: Information
  Event source: Service Control Manager
  Event category: no
  Event ID: 7036
  Description:
  The removable storage service entered the stopped state.

  It's like aid and assistance...  Most of the people (including the technical support engineers who are hired by Microsoft) say to set the Startup Type to automatic, but you don't have to...  Set it to manual and it will start fine when he needs start (if he can).

  There is no need for these Services (and many other Services in XP) as starting at each restart and run all day without doing anything.

  Here is a good list that will help you understand your XP Services:

• Some clarification on the prioritization of the Compellent storage

  We is the migration of our shared since an old attached FC SAN to an iSCSI based compellent vSphere storage.  I had built a few LUNS to test, and now I want to start fast vMotioning VMware more guests to the existing LUN compellent.  When I made my first move, I had requested a profile of storage of low priority (level 3) to the LUN and then replaced by the storage profile recommended after that vMotion operation was complete.  Now I want to vMotion more VMs in the lun Compellent existing comments without the risk of saturating my SSD.  If I select Select the option 'Import data to the lowest tier of storage' in the advanced properties of the volume Compellent in System Manager, then invites him to the volume/LUN vMotion, writing will be limited to level 3?  Or is the 'import data at the lowest storage layer"only really applicable to import operations by an external device that is configured in the System Manager?

  This is my first Compellent installation so I'm learning the environment of the earth upward.

  If you activate the checkbox "Import data at the level low", all the data will be ingested at the lowest level possible. So if you have levels 1, 2 and 3 and RAID 10, and RAID 5 on each layer, your new information will be ingested to Tier 3 RAID 5. Once you clear the option, new data will be ingested at your highest level (Tier 1 RAID 10 if it is not full). And if you have the opportunity to fast track under license, then he's going to RAID 10 fast first, then Standard RAID 10.

• Unit - mailbox moved to the new storage group is not available

  Hello

  I have a 4.0 (4) unit UM with a message from Exchange 2003 offbox store. During the initial installation, only the first storage group on the mail server was present and mailboxes of the users are hosted here.

  Recently, a new storage group was created on the mail server and a mailbox has been moved from the first group of storage to the new storage group. The Subscriber is able to receive voice messages via e-mail, however his MWI does not illuminate. When it tries to connect to retrieve messages on his phone, the unit said "your messages are not available now.

  I am able to create or import users that are hosted in the new storage group, but I'm having the same symptoms. Is it necessary to rerun the configuration of message store wizard?

  Thanks in advance.

  Have you run Assistant permission for the new Bank of mailboxes?

  The other thing to do is to restart the AvMsgStoreMonitor service; But wait after hours. A reboot will do the same.

• If you use network storage, configure ASM disks with external redundancy groups

  Hi Experts,

  If you use network storage, configure ASM disks with external redundancy groups. Don't use groups of Oracle ASM failure. Oracle failure groups consume cycles additional CPU and can run in unpredictable ways after suffering from a disk failure. When you use external redundancy, disk failure are transparent to the database and do consume no additional database CPU cycle, because it is discharged on storage processors.

  This does not mean

  • RAID 1 + 0 for diskgroup + REDO1
  • RAID 1 + 0 for diskgroup + REDO2
  • RAID 5 for diskgroup + DATA
  • RAID 5 for diskgroup + FRA

  Is this one suggested, the recommended best practices for oracle on VMWARE?

• DRS/HA when the guests have access to the different storage

  Hello

  I wonder what will happen in a scenario where all guests are in a group, but not all guests have access to the same storage (see attachment).

  Is smart enough to only migrate (or start) DRS/HA a virtual machine for guests who have access to the storage, it is located on?

  I understand this is probably not a supported configuration, but this is a temporary measure

  Thanks for any help.

  In a HA/DRS configuration, it is recommended to have shared storage. But even if you have no shared storage, you can always enable HA/DRS, but your virtual machines will not be protected HA.

  Yes, the DRS is smart enough to move only those virtual machines that are located on a shared storage, in case of lack of resources. HA, too, smart enough to restart these virtual machines, on the other hosts that are on shared failure of host storage only.

• The recommended storage design

  Hello

  I was wondering what people recommend for a design of storage for large file servers.  I need to configure multiple servers in the range of 3-4 TB each.  My current setup is just a local storage of 2 TB vmfs volume, but I have not set aside for these servers shared storage.  My thought was to have several vdisks on the separate storage LUNs and combine the disks on the servers.  What is the best practice to recommend?  Or is it perhaps differently or maybe different storage for this amount of data?

  Thanks in advance.

  If its just CIFS/NFS shares, I would put a device dedicated as e to host all the actions.

• Need help with the data storage store, local array and network connections

  Need help with my ESXi 4.1 installation

  My hardware:

  I built a server with an Asus P6T whitebox, i7 920, 12 Gig RAM, NIC, Intel Pro1000 PT Quad, 3ware 9650SE-12ML with 8 1.5 TB SATA green in a raid 6 array gives me about 8 + TB with a spare drive all housed within a NORCO RPC-4220 4U Rackmount Server chassis.  I also have a 500 GB SATA drive which will hold the ESXi and virtual machines.

  The network includes a firewall, Netgear Prosafe FVS336G, GS724Tv of Netgear ProSafe 24 port Gigabit Managed Switch on a dhcp cable modem internet service provider.

  I also have 2 old NetGear SC101T NAS disks (4to) I want to connect to the system how some - at a later date have... data on them and want to transfer to the new storage array. I always looking into the question of whether they will work with ESXi 4.1, or I might have to only access it through Windows XP.

  My Situation:

  I have already installed ESXi 4.1 and vsphere client with no problems and it is connected to a dhcp cable internet service.  I've set up host via a dynamic DNS service name give me a static hostname on the internet.  I installed three machines to virtual OS successfully at the moment and now want to first start by creating a multimedia storage server which will use some of this new 8 TB array, then separate data storage for use with a web server small overhead storage and a backup.  It is a domestic installation.

  Help with the data store and network:

  I was doing some reading, because I'm new to this, and it looks like I'll probably want to set up my table via ESXi as a nfs disk format.  Now, the data store is usually in another physical box from what I understand, but I put my readers and ESXi all in the same box.  I'm not sure that the best way to put in place with grouped network cards, but I want to make this work.

  I understand that in ESXi 4.1 using iSCSi LUN must be less than 2 TB, but nfs - I should be able to add a bigger partition then 2 TB (for my multimedia) in nfs, right? or should I still add it separately as a separate 2 TB drives and then extend them to get the biggest space.

  Any suggestions or direct resources showing examples on how to actually add some parts of the table as data warehouses separate nfs.  I know that to go to the configuration tab, and then select Add to storage, and then select nfs. I have not my picture, but it's here that I don't know what to do because ESXi 4.1 system already has an address, should I put the same thing to the new data store array also (will it work?), and what should I use for the name of the folder and the store of data... just do something to the top.  I thought to later install Openfiler (for a multimedia storage using this table server) as a virtual machine, use the table with esxi so that I can access the same storage space with widows and linux-based systems.

  I also know I have to find a way to better use my quad nic card... put in place of virtual switches, grouping, etc HELP?

  Any direction, assistance, similar facilities to sample, suggestions or resources that would help would be great. I did a lot of hunting, but still a little confused on how to best to put in place.

  You must think of VMDK files of large databases with records of random size guest go read some data (a DLL or an INI file), maybe write some data back, then go read other data. Some files are tiny, but certain DLLs are several megabytes. It's random i/o all and heavy on the search time. IO Opsys is small random operations that are often sequential (go read data, write data, go read other data,...) so that deadlines are critical to the overall performance. That's why people say OPS are / s of reference and forget the MBs flow. The only time where you bulk transfers are when you read media (ISO files).

  Well, now forget all this. Actually the disk activity will depend on the specific applications (database? mail server? machines compiler?), but the above is true for boots, and whenever applications are idle. You should see the profile to know.

  RAID 10 is faster (and often more reliable) than RAID 5 or RAID-6 except in certain specific cases. In General RAID 10 is ideal for many random writes, since the calculation of parity for RAID-5 and - 6 adds to the overall latency between command and response - latency is cumulative if a little slow here and a little slow it adds up to a lot of overall slow synchronous especially with e/s on a network. OTOH RAID-5 and -6 can produce faster readings due to the number of heads, so you can use it for virtual machines that transfer bulk. Test. You may find that you need several different types subdashboards for best results.

  You said 3ware, they have some good grades on their site, but don't believe it. With my 9650 that I found myself with only a couple of their recommendations-, I put the (simple) table for allocation size 256 k, nr_requests at 2 x the queue_depth and use the planner date limit. I had the habit for the Ext4 file system formatted with stride and stripe-width synced to the table and used the options large_files with fewer inodes (do not use the huge_files option unless you plan to have single VMDK files in the terabyte range). Use a cache of great reading in advance.

  Virtual machines use VMDK files in all cases except raw iSCSI LUN that they treat native disks. VMDK is easier to manage - you can make a backup by copying the file, you can move it to a PC and load it into another flavour of VMware, etc. There could be some features iSCSI to your San as a transparent migration but nothing for me. NFS has less chatter of Protocol if latency lower times to complete an operation. NFS is good to read and write a block of data, that's all it boils down to.

  UPS is good, but it won't help if something inside the machine explodes (UPS does nothing if the PC power supply goes down). If the RAID card has an option for a battery backup module, so it can contain some writings in memory and may end up the disk i/o after replacing the power supply. 3ware also limits the types of caching available if help is not installed, and you get just the right numbers with the module.
