• Best practices for storing the Logs of the system for all newly improved ESXi hosts?

  Hi people,

  What are the options and best practices for the Logs of the system for all newly improved 5.1u1 ESXi hosts?

  Do I need to have the Syslog server or it can be safely ignored?

  Thank you

  Evening,

  Syslog is preferred, but VMware has provided a collector of syslog on the vcenter installation disc can be installed on any windows host or your vcenter. I can't count the number of times where I had guests CMTF or newspapers lost... Fortunately for the syslog which collects up to the accident.  It is not necessary, but it's really a good idea without any real cost since you can use your vcenter host.

  Here is an article on how to install it:

• Best practices for the parameter of ARCH_LAG_TARGET and DBWR CHECKPOINT database

  Hello
  
  Concerning best practices - I need to know - what is recommended or guidelines for these 2 settings of databases.
  
  I found for ARCH_LAG_TARGET, Oracle recommends he set to 1800 seconds (30 minutes)
  
  Maybe someone can guide me with these 2 settings...
  
  See you soon

  Dear unsolaris,

  First of all if you want to follow the full and incremental control points, make the LOG_CHECKPOINT_TO_ALERT TRUE parameter. You will see the checkpoint YVERT and deadlines.

  Full checkpoint is triggered when a log switch occurs and the position of the point of control in the controlfile is written in the data file headers. For just a really little amount of time, the database could be consistent even if it is open and in read/write mode.

  ARCH_LAG_TARGET setting is disabled and the value 0 by default. Here is the definition for this parameter;

  http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/initparams009.htm

  If you want to set this parameter to the top of the Oracle recommends that it be 1800 as you said. This may subject to change database database and it is better for you to check it out for who suffer.

  Kind regards.

• Best practices with streams WCCP of WAAS

  Hello

  I have a module WAAS SRE 910 in 2911 router that intercepts packets this router with WCCP.

  All packets are received by the external interface (gi 0/2, connected to a switch with port configured in vlan WCCP) and are sent back to the router via the internal interface (IG 1/0 connected directly to the router):

  WAAS # sh interface IG 1/0

  Internet address: 10.0.1.1

  Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

  State of the admin: to the top

  Operating status: running

  Maximum transfer unit size: 1500

  Entry errors: 0

  Entry packets dropped: 0

  Packets received: 20631

  Output errors: 0

  Output packets dropped: 0

  Load interval: 30

  Input rate: 239 bps, 0 packets/s

  Output: 3270892 bps, 592 packets/s

  Packets sent: 110062

  Auto-negotiation: on

  Full Duplex: Yes

  Speed: 1000 Mbit/s

  WAAS # sh interface 2/0 gi

  Internet address: 10.0.2.1

  Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0

  State of the admin: to the top

  Operating status: running

  Maximum transfer unit size: 1500

  Output rate: 3431 bps, 2 packets/sec

  Packets sent: 1580

  Auto-negotiation: on

  Full Duplex: Yes

  Speed: 100 Mbps

  The default route configured in module WAAS is 0.0.0.0/0 to 10.0.1.254 (interface of the router).

  It would be better that the packets leave module WAAS of the external interface (instead of the internal interface)?

  Is there a best practice recommended by Cisco on this?

  Thank you.

  Stéphane

  Hi Stephane,

  That's right, internal interface means SM1/0.

  The best way is to have traffic at the start of the internal interface module so that we are sure, it hits the redirect exclude statement and that we do not have the crest of the loops because WCCP.

• Best practices for the application of page multi Landscape/Portrait

  Hello
  I am looking for information on track to develop auto guide demand in pure actionscript with new components of qnx.fuse, but there is not a good example in real code. Every time I tried to make it resizable layout to get deformated fluid only components in portrait or landscape mode.

  Is there for example some best practices how to modify this code to have pages and components with the same sizes in portrait and landscape? On presentation buttons size always 150 width and height 45 and wil containers have stageWidth and stageHeight.

  Thank you if someone could help with this problem

  Hello

  Try listening to a shift in focus screen with this code:

  stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, onResizeHandler, false, 0, true);
  

  You can only change the width/height of your components to the event based on the width/height of the floor.

  I will guard against specifying specific sizes, if you want your code to work on devices BB10. I recommend using %'s.

• Physically, move a server blade in a different location - best practices?

  Hello

  Is there a best practice to move a physical blade to another location?  I can't find a document about it.

  We want to move a slide to another location due to keep grouped similar environments but do not want to disassociate the profile.

  Can we just unassign, and then take it out and put in another location and let it automatically reactivate.  The profile will remain with the server?

  You say - associate profile and then re - associate profile again?

  Thank you

  A

  Hi Adrien,.

  Thank you for poining, I guess I wrote too soon.

  Yes it takes the decomission.

  Here are the steps to update:

  (1) shut down the operating system on the blade,

  (2) Disassocite the service profile, wait dissociate it in full (check the status on the WSF of the blade tab)

  (3) Decomission the blade of the UCSM (check the status on the tab of the WSF for the process)

  (4) to remove the blade from the current location,

  (5) move the blade into the slot again.

  (6) wait for blade to discover fully (even once, check the condition of the WSF of the blade tab), you may be required to validate / recognize the slot to accept the blade and trigger the discovery.

  7) once discovered associated with the profile back

  (8) start the dos operating system.

  I would check the documents and let you know.

• common components of jar, naming, best practices

  11.1.2.1 forms

  I added a few components of pot. For example, Directprint.jar

  As they have dependencies on other common components, you must download and add in the formsweb.cfg

  For example, Directprint must fontbox, pdfbox and commons-logging

  This components are alive, so change their versions.

  Well, now I have java in 1.6-1.8 guests, so I used it to upgrade some components of the jar.

  For example from pdfbox - 1.8.6.jar to pdfbox - 1.8.11.jar

  The question is: what is the best practice? The version of the name of band (rename just pdfbox.jar) so I don't have to change formsweb.cfg or preserve the name and line archive file formsweb.cfg?

  If you rename the file... you have to do before everything that manifests properties adding and signing a hassle?

  I guess it's a matter of taste and requirement. Personally I don't like the version numbers in the file names, because ultimately I don't like what version I am running a certain file... as long at it works. I certainly do not want to change the file name in each config file I do and do not remember to add it.

  However; If you want to be able to move forward and backward between the versions I guess it's easier to have a version number in the file name. If you encounter a no - Go in the current version just swap the file name in the configuration files. Of course, if you implement version control, you can update to revision until the problem is introduced, generating the .jar file from scratch and redeployed. If you don't have version control, you can only hope that you have a backup of your file.

  By simply adding a version number in the file name, you will need to update the formsweb.cfg whenever you add a new version of your jar file. By not doing this you will not have to do.

  Both have their advantages and disadvantages, you will have to decide for yourself what best suits your needs.

  If you rename the file... you have to do before everything that manifests properties adding and signing a hassle?

  Yes. The manifest must not care about the file name, but the process of signing only.

• Best practices: linking opportunity data step contact SFDC

  Hi - I was hoping someone could give me a best practice to manage and automate the following use cases.

  I have tried a number of different things in Eloqua but met a roadblock.

  CASE OF USE/PROBLEM:

  I need to remove contacts from a campaign of education that are associated with a designated SFDC opportunity as won.
  I realized my first step, which is to remove a contact from a campaign by referencing a custom object.

  However, I need updated chance data mapped to a contact to handle all upward.

  Thus so, my real problem is updated (every 30 minutes or more) data in the custom about opportunities object table.

  What I've tried map data updated to a contact opportunity:

  (1) auto Synch the opportunity table an object custom

  I was able to bring opportunities but the email address/contact data is stored on the Contact role table so no e-mail address were brought in Eloqua.

  (2) automatic synchronization on the Contact role opportunity table an object custom

  This works if I do an automatic synchronization and automatic synchronization does not work with the updated filter, and the last successful Upload Date.

  Is it possible to change the filter to make the data when the opportunity is changed and not the role of Contact?
  And if so, can someone give me direction on how to implement that in Eloqua?

  If you know of something else to do to manage this entire upward please let me know. I appreciate any assistance.

  Blake Holden

  Hi Kathleen,.

  I understand. Below shows you an automatic synch successfully pull data in the role of opportunity Contact SFDC Eloqua. Once a week, I still don't have a full automatic synchronization to ensure that all data from, but most of the time, it is entirely automated.

• Best practices for obtaining of all activities for a Contact

  Hello

  I'm new to the Eloqua API and wonder what is the best practice to download a list of all the activities for a given contact.

  Thank you

  Hi Mike,.

  For activities in general, export activity 2.0 bulk will be the best way to go. Docs are here: http://docs.oracle.com/cloud/latest/marketingcs_gs/OMCBB/index.html

  But it can be a complex process to wrap around your head if you are new to the Eloqua API. So if you're in a pinch and don't bother the association of these activities to campaigns and just shoot a little contact activities, you can resort to the use of REST API calls.

  Calls of the activity are visible (from the console Firebug or Chrome), if you open any contact record and go to the tab "activity log". If you put in all the activities, it will trigger a dozen or more calls or you can choose an individual from the drop-down list to inspect this call more in detail.

  Best regards

• Best practices for something like this

  Working on a project after learning of "Garbage collection" and some other things of this forum (thank you all) I was wondering if someone could look over this piece of code and tell me if Im using best practices or if it's just sloppy as hell and im going to this topic wrong.

  ALSO, I understand to delete eventListeners and children dynamically added to the scene. But you need to remove things such as interpolations and timers...

  If I have something with identifier = gcnew instantiate something ();  Do I always need to remove what little whatever it is to keep everything clean?

• Best practices for backup of vCenter device and ESXi hosts?

  Hello

  I have a new VMware environment based on 5.5 ESXi and vCenter Server Appliance. A few questions:

  • What is the best practice to perform the backup of the vCenter Server Appliance? I set up the camera with the embedded SQL Express database.
  • It's recommended to backup the ESXi host or is it easier to any re - install failure?

  Best regards
  ,

  Thor-Egil

  Hello

  You can use VMware VDP to backup your device of vCenter. It is included in essentials, standard, enterprise, and enterprise as well as licenses.

  I won't have backups of ESXi servers. Restore the backup would take more time that the deployment of a new ESXi.Only thing, you may want to consider is to enable logging remotely, so you can see why the hosts failed.

• Exporting 60 frames per second to 30 frames per second - best practices?

  Hello!

  I've been inattentive when setting up my DSLR before filming sequences for a small video testimony. So you end up with 60 fps clips where I wanted to 24 fps.

  I edited the full video in Prime CC expect to export at 30 fps without major problems. And to a certain extent, that's ok, except for a couple of pans that suck really :-/

  My question is: what is the best practice when exporting first CC or via Media Encoder?

  Would really appreciate your help!

• What is the best practice to block through several layers sizes: hardware and hypervisor VM OS?

  The example below is not a real Setup, I work with, but should get the message. Here's my example of what I'm doing as a reference layer:

  (LAYER1) Hardware: The hardware RAID controller

  • -1 TB Volume configured in the 4K block size. (RAW)?

  
  

  (Layer2) Hypervisor: Data store ESXi

  • -1 TB of Raid Controller formatted with VMFS5 @ block size of 1 MB.

  
  

  Layer (3) the VM OS: Server 2008 R2 w/SQL

  • -100 GB virtual HD using NTFS @ 4 K for the OS block size.
  • -900 GB virtual HD set up using NTFS @ 64 K block size to store the SQL database.
  • 
    

  It seems that vmfs5 is limited to only having a block size of 1 MB. It would be preferable that all or part of the size of the blocks matched on different layers and why or why not? What are the different block sizes on other layers and performance? Could you suggest better alternative or best practices for the sample configuration above?

  If a San participated instead of a hardware on the host computer RAID controller, it would be better to store the vmdk of OS on the VMFS5 data store and create an iSCSI separated THAT LUN formatted to a block size of 64 K, then fix it with the initiator iSCSI in the operating system and which size to 64 K. The corresponding block sizes through layers increase performance or is it advisable? Any help answer and/or explaining best practices is greatly appreciated.

  itsolution,

  Thanks for the helpful response points.  I wrote a blog about this which I hope will help:

  Alignment of partition and blocks of size VMware 5 | blog.jgriffiths.org

  To answer your questions here, will:

  I have 1 TB of space (around) and create two Virutal Drives.

  Virtual Drive 1-10GB - to use for OS Hyper-visiere files

  Virtual Drive 2 - 990 GB - used for the storage of data/VM VMFS store

  The element size of default allocation on the Perc6 / i is 64 KB, but can be 8,16,32,64,128,256,512 or 1024 KB.

  What size block would you use table 1, which is where the real hyper-visiere will be installed?

  -> If you have two tables I would set the size of the block on the table of the hypervisor to 8 KB

  What block size that you use in table 2, which will be used as the VM data store in ESXi?

  ->, I'd go with 1024KO on VMFS 5 size

  -Do you want 1024KO to match the VMFS size which will be finally formatted on top he block?

  -> Yes

  * Consider that this database would eventually contain several virtual hard drives for each OS, database SQL, SQL logs formatted to NTFS to the recommended block, 4K, 8K, 64K size.

  -> The problem here is THAT VMFS will go with 1 MB, no matter what you're doing so sculpture located lower in the RAID will cause no problems but does not help either.  You have 4 k sectors on the disk.  RAID 1 MB, 1 MB invited VMFS, 4 k, 8K, 64 K.   Really, 64K gains are lost a little when the back-end storage is 1 MB.

  If the RAID stripe element size is set to 1 024 Ko so that it matches the VMFS 1 MB size of block, which would be better practice or is it indifferent?

  -> So that's 1024KB, or 4 KB chucks it doesn't really matter.

  What effect this has on the OS/Virtual HD and their sizes respective block installed on top of the tape and the size of block VMFS element?

  -> The effect is minimal on the performance but that exists.   It would be a lie to say that he didn't.

  I could be completely on the overall situation of the thought, but for me it seems that this must be some kind of correlation between the three different "layers" as I call it and a best practice in service.

  Hope that helps.  I'll tell you I ran block size SQL and Exchange time virtualized without any problem and without changing the operating system.  I just stuck with the standard size of microsoft.  I'd be much more concerned by the performance of the raid on your server controller.  They continue to do these things cheaper and cheaper with cache less and less.  If performance is the primary concern then I would consider a matrix or a RAID5/6 solution, or at least look at the amount of cache on your raid controller (reading is normally essential to the database)

  Just my two cents.

  Let me know if you have any additional questions.

  Thank you

• vSphere 5 ESXi host - RAID config best practice?

  Hi all

  I'm pretty new to VMWare and wonder what's the best Setup for RAID

  I have a HP DL380 G7 with SAS 4 x 600 GB discs.

  It is a simple server lab/DR, and I intend on creating a RAID-5 volume with no hostspare. Can I partition the RAID and put the ESX software on a small partition and use the other partition for the data store? If possible it is best practice?

  I imagine there will be a performance by having the same RAID volume, making of the reads/writes on the ESX software and storage at the same time. Would I be better to throw some 72 GB in RAID 1 on the server so just for the ESX software and maybe to store some ISOs?

  Thank you!

  B

  Don't worry ESXi. It works entirely in memory and only stores the configuration changes and logs on the HARD drive. I'd go with the RAID5 configuration that you mentioned.
