To try the beta of Windows Server '8 '.

Hello

I am (I am doing everything) two small nonprofits who is both very computerized in their demand for services.  My vision that their development involves the inevitable expansion in technology database server.  I'm still very much in the learning phase, in this regard and teaches me everything I can.

I learned a few days before, on the Technet site ' "on the beta of Windows Server '8 '.  Through my experience during my self-training and tests with Microsoft software, I discovered that it is always better to be "at the forefront," then, of course, it would be evidence of ground for my learning of suitable to my technological base to these technologies (forward-looking).

I went again to the [today, both Technet and MSDN,] and received "unable to locate this url" messages for all possible links for this beta trial software product.

I missed a deadline to try this latest server software?

All pages pointing to these links felt a need to sign up for the trial, but I could find no registration link.  When profile pages Microsoft's come-up and all these slots have been filled, and boxes checked, I always "impossible to locate this url" messages

For Windows Server 8 beta related questions, please post in forum Windows 8 beta TechNet Server:

  • copy of the mac to windows server data

    Hi all

    My apologies in advance if this ended up in the wrong section of the forum, hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

    I work for a company that currently stores its files on an OS X journaled NAS device, connected to a Mac Mini via the lightning cable and the mac connects to the network via ethernet.

    We are planning a migration of large data (~ 18 TB) from a NAS device mac to format, on a Windows Server (like using NetApp storage solution / VM datastore)

    I wonder what could be the best application to manage the data transfer? In Windows environments, I used Robocopy or FTP and love it, but not really know on the side of Mac of things when it comes to data migrations.

    We have a paid version of ChronoSync we use to run our nightly backups to other NAS material - I see that this has developed in a few searches on Google.

    2 other products that pop up in my research are arRsync and SuperDuper - can someone comment or recommend these products?

    That's what I look for in an application to manage the transfer:

    -support to copy the attributes of file from the MAC world to Windows

    -support the recovery if the transfer fails / break

    -being able to provide a significant peace of mind summary when the transfer is complete (sort of like ChronoSyncs connect)

    -GUI based and have a nice interface

    -Be reliable to transfer large date - currently about 18 ~ TB

    Looking forward to hearing your comments, no doubt let me know things that I have to take into consideration during the planning phase or "traps".

    So I'm going to bite and offers some advice.  Summer by this much (sigh).

    First of all, some of the things to watch for:

    1: naming.  Mac users in storage Mac can use any character that they want: and.  For example, my.file! @# $> That's so important # $123. .    can be a file name.  Cannot * REALLY IMPORTANT FILE!  Yes, there are spaces in the and at the end.  Yes, this will make panic window.  You need to do a review of the names of files and folders before you try to migrate.  Search for files that begin and end with the space character.  Beware reserved characters in Windows.  Clean your name prior to migration.  For more information, see here https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa365247(v=vs.85).aspx

    2: maximum length of the path.  Yes.  In this day of unicode several parts of Windows can only manage a path of the file system maximum of 256 characters.  See the link above.  If you arrive by a system of support for paths longer (like OS X and * nix operating systems) that you want to review the length of your paths.  Test, test and test again with all of your tools, including your backup software.  Make sure he can see both paths that exceed the API limit and also it is able to restore data in ways that exceed the length.

    3: SMB is always a nightmare.  Numeral ID of file crawling, to slow down the reading of the directory, to Hung Finder.  Your version of Mac OS will have degrees of success.   10.8 was a mess with DFS.  10.9 was a wreck of train with Windows cluster servers.   10.10 has huge issues with ID of file enumeration and periodic deadlock.  Yet once, test in your environment.  Get comfortable with the nsmb.conf file.

    4: do not leave your sleep of Macs.  Reconnect the AFP inactive supports.  To connect to a server, let mac sleep, wake can renegotiate the connection with the server (generally) volume.  SMB does not.  If your Mac to sleep with documents open on the part of the SMB, you are in a world of pain.

    5: Be prepared to not be able to find anything.  Research on the shared Windows resources has been a frustrating situation.  You will have taken in charge of Spotlight from the server so that you can use a directory to search like Find Any File trawling or be ready to manage Spotlight index on each workstation and hope for the best.

    Regarding the methods to get the data from one place to another, you must realize that there is a time constraint.  Using a 4 GB/min of transfer GigE, assuming that no problem and rule without interruptions, 18 TB of data will be 75 hours to copy.  Now, since it is a SAR passes to a Windows system, you probably won't get 4 GB/min so increase this number by 20%.  If the Windows Server on writing virus scanning, add another 10%.  If possible, the best advice I can give you is to do it in logical blocks.  Now, I don't know your data set, so this is not possible.  However, if you have several shares, move an action by end of week to ensure you have enough time to perform the copy and also to correct problems that may occur.

    About the tools, I have always used rsync because it allows the two detailed logging and works also in additional line.  Should we get disturbed for any reason, you can pick up where you left off.  Unfortunately, this isn't based GUI.  Also, the rsync 2.6.3 included with OS X is not sufficient to support all the features of file system.  I prefer to build a copy of the last branch 3.  I'll also include some of the patches as indicators of file and compression of hfs.  If it's just data, the patches may not be necessary.  If you need a GUI tool, CronoSync is correct.

    And finally, if you find that SMB on Windows is just too frustrating, there's Acronis access connect.  It is a supplement to the Windows Server native AFP and Spotlight.  Over the past years, I was faced with questions SMB through many versions of Mac OS X.  Of course, several questions are in corporate environments where I have no visibility to the configuration of Windows Server.  I have no idea what they are doing on these machines, but I don't know that OS X integration was harsh.

    I hope this helps.  Good luck in your project.  Test and test even more before putting forward your end-users.

    Is this cold backup and sufficient archives, for the exact replica of primary education

    You can recover up to cancel if something happened.

    Do I have to take the backup of the primary database as cold before the primary.

    always always take backup before any operation.

  • How to enlarge the screen of Windows Server 2003 on VMware Server 2?

    People,

    Hello. Because Windows 7 is not compatible must be installed to PeopleSoft PIA, I need to install VMware Server 2, and then install Windows Server 2003, which is compatible with PIA, on the virtual machine.

    But when I open Windows Server 2003 on the virtual machine, Win2K3 screen is very small, and its size is of about 1/4 of the screen of my computer screen. It is not comfortable to work for a long time.

    People know how to enlarge the screen of Windows Server 2003 in a virtual machine VMware Server 2 so that its size covers all of my computer screen?


    Thanks in advance!

    Did you already installed the VMWare tools in your guest OS in VMWare? In general, it helps a lot to be able to redefine a larger screen definition.

  • Installation of Weblogic 10.3.6 with generic Setup on the SP2 of Windows Server 2012

    Hello Experts,

    I try to install WLS10.3.6 on MS Windows Server 2012 (64-bit) SP2 with generic Setup.

    1 installed jdk1.7 (jdk-7u80-windows - x 64)

    2. then ran wls1036_generic.jar

    C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_80\bin > java-D64-jar D:\SW_Installers\06.Weblogic\wls1036_generic\wls1036_generic.jar

    Cannot create the temporary extraction directory in the default location.

    , I get the above error message. Attaching screenshot. http://www.use.com/FpC0P

    Can you please help?

    Thank you

    Benoit

    Just to update, finally ran wls1036_generic.jar. Problem was probably related to the virtual machine.

    We were in-

    C:\Java\jdk1.7.0_80\bin>Java-D64-jar D:\SW_Installers\06.Weblogic\wls1036_generic\wls1036_generic.jar

    Error - a

    Cannot create the temporary extraction directory in the default location.

    The temporary extraction directory is the Windows temporary folder. The location is-

    Folder - %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp where %UserProfile% - c\:users\ [acctname]

    But when you run start > run > %Temp%, I see.

    C:\Users\ccbgso\AppData\Local\Temp\2--et error was a drive is not accessible.

    And \2 was the problem, because there is not C:\Users\ccbgso\AppData\Local\Temp\2.

    To correct this error, we did it-

    Start > run > Regedit > hkey_current_user > volatile environment

    And found 2 below.

    Chosen the 2, then the two TEMP & TMP sought in the right pane.

    the values were - C:\Users\ccbgso\AppData\Local\Temp\2

    Right-click each & click on modify, remove the \2

    Clicekd on ok.

    Disconnected and re connected.

    And then ran

    C:\Java\jdk1.7.0_80\bin>Java-D64-jar D:\SW_Installers\06.Weblogic\wls1036_generic\wls1036_generic.jar

    This time, he began the extraction and 'Install Oracle - Weblogic 10.3.6.0' Welcome screen appears.

  • vCenter totally blocked by the firewall of windows server 2008.

    I installed vcenter server on windows server 2008 R2 and windows firewall blocks for her communication (port 80/443/389). I checked and there are clear rules in the firewall that allow traffic as vcenter put there during the installation. But the server does not allow traffic only.

    If your windows machine is a member server in your windows AD it have up to 3 profiles of different firewall (public, private, domain,). Do not forget that all the rules part of the 'area' or better 'public' profile If windows cannot reach a DC windows during startup it does not use the firewall profile 'area' and you cannot access the services of vcenter in this case.
