VM Server 2 as an archiving solution (single Server Instances, long-term use 10 years and more)

Hello, I have a lot of customers who are located in the health sector, they have very dated material but we must keep the system state server and existing programs up to 20 years.

I've virtualized successfully some of their servers using the converter and operate them on VM Server 2.0; things are impeccable and they know even higher performance and then on their old material.

My question is this; VMWare Server is a sound archiving for instances of single server solution if a customer has only 1 server that must be kept for years, is interesting to use ESXi or ESX server purchase?  Do you think that any restrictions on the use of VMServer to host this virtual machine (for the next few years) so the client will use to read only purposes?  Is there another product VMware which will allow for read-only access on a network (Vm Player?)

What are others in the health sector to help clinics with a single server?

Thank you for all your comments on this, I'm using ESX server but with time in these situations, there is no way these customers will be hardware and software investments for 1 VM.

Thank you

Haymaker

Hello

For archiving purposes, VMware Server is a perfectly good option. Reader could also be used if you want to... You and the 'hosting' on which you store all this. It must be able to run the required number of virtual machines simultaneously.

    Hello everyone,

    I recently purchased the Officejet J4660 AIO.  I had to install on our Windows Server 2003 R2 (with all latest updates), being present on the CD of driver for Win XP, I had to download the latest driver (OJJ4600_Corporate_ENU_10 - 55.8 MB) from the HP site.  During installation, ONLY the printer driver has been installed.  I can't use the SCAN function or the FAX software.  In fact, the icons for these two programs not created in the HP program group.  No error message appeared well while installing.

    I think that the Acquisition of Image Windows (WIA) service is disabled in your system. Unlike Windows XP or Vista, in most Windows Server systems, this service is disabled by default. You can activate it in this way:

    1. right click on my computer and select manage.

    2. Select "Applications and Services-> Services";

    3. find Windows Image Acquisition (WIA), right click and select Properties.

    4. Select "auto" in the "Startup Type" list box in the "Général" tab

    5. in the situation 'Services', click 'start '.

  • Support best suited to long-term archiving purposes?

    Browsing the Internet, I have met many (and partly contradictory) suggestions for the 'best' (longer, with good error correction algorithm, etc.) DVD media. The final conclusion of one of the most competent sounding tutorial (http://adterrasperaspera.com/blog/2006/10/30/how-to-choose-cddvd-archival-media) is: «...» So what I use? Because of the quality of senior Taiyo Yuden and superior design of DVD + R media, I use only Taiyo Yuden DVD + R media. I recommend this media for all who wish to retain their data for a long, long time. "Based on the high level of expertise of many users in these forums, I would appreciate greatly any suggestions/comments/references. Thanks, as always, CAI.

    I also use Taiyo Yuden and Verbatim. I have a DVD-5 in my DVD-9 in Verbatim and Taiyo Yuden. For delivery, I've never had a return.

    Now, one of the problems, looking to the future, it is that a not-quite-real world of tests need to be developed to accelerate the "aging", often using computer models to simulate aging. How long will they last? Most of the laboratories indicate 50 years and more, which is not bad.

    I do not recommend using cases, which do not allow the surface disk connect with any surface in this case, essentially holding it away. I recommend also to store many elements of the environment and in particular UV rays.

    Some, like adhesive labels, but I'm not a fan and will use the Eposn inks. Now, how long those who will last before doing damage? Who knows?

    Good luck

  • Network error mystery - Windows cannot access \\server\users when you use the netbios name, but works fine when you use the full domain name.

    Hi all:

    Mystery - I have a Win 7 work company that cannot access a particular action.  I get the following error-"you are not allowed to access \\server\users.  Contact your network administrator to request access.  However, these users can access these files successfully on other computers, and also if I use the fqdn or the IP instead of the "netbios name server", it connects successfully.

    Environment:

    -Workstation and server at the same time in the same AD Windows 2008 r2 domain.

    -All users, admin and non admin, cannot access this share when connecting to this computer only.

    -ACCESS to the other actions on the same server, as well as actions on other servers.

    -The biggest mystery to me - if I type the FQDN, \\server.domain.local\users, it works!  What the?

    I tried:

    -Deletion of the domain and add it again, no improvement.

    -Check Event Viewer, nothing jumps (not red or yellow).

    -Enabled auditing for access to objects on the server, it does not show a failure in the security event log.

    -Turn off the firewall of my computer.

    -UN-share and re - share the directory.

    -Give everyone full control (the fact that it works well with de facto authorities a little full domain name, a candidate little likely, but I have an open mind).

    For anyone wishing to offer their 'help' by asking me to make some sort of workaround as re - install windows or turn off netbios or use only of the full domain name here on out or whatever, please Don ' t bother.  I appreciate your help, but I am quite able to reinstall and I'm not interested unique hacks that affect this otherwise network well managed, I'm looking for a solution that will allow me to save time and is a long-term solution.

    In my view, that a key point here maybe I can connect successfully using \\server.domain.local\users, but not \\server\users.  Someone at - it some thoughts?

    In DNS server of youe, go to the area in question and in the use of select search before Wins wins tab and enter the address of your wins server if you have one. If not, install one.

  • 9.0.2 CF multi server config, IIS site uses the connector bad, how do I change the connector to point to its own instance of CF

    Hello

    Yesterday, I found that an IIS site that is supposed to be connected to its own instance of CF is actually connected to another instance of CF. Our configuration is the following

    Windows Server 2008 R2, Coldfusion 9.0.2 Multi server enterprise edition, IIS 7

    Instances of ColdFusion: P1, P2, V1

    Clusters: Primaire1: contains P1 & P2

    Site1 IIS Web site is connected to the Cluster primaire1

    Site2 IIS Web site is connected instance CF V1

    I myself stopped instance CF V1, but IIS V1 site was still running. After much digging, I found this site V1 is not actually connected to the CF P1, an instance of CF V1 instance. I used the web site1 at CF instance V1 connection configuration tool. In IIS the JWildCardHandler site1 points to \JRun4\lib\wsconfig\3\jrun_iis6_wildcard.dll. JWildCardHandler for site2 points to the same directory \JRun4\lib\wsconfig\3\jrun_iis6_wildcard.dll. Here is my dilemma. How can I get JWildCardHandler site2 to point to its own folder under \JRun4\lib\wsconfig, say 14 instead of 3. I don't want to use the web config tool becauseI don't know if it will delete the folder ...\webconfig\3 if another site is still using it. I saw the web configuration tool remove the folder when you remove this connector in the tool.

    So I thought that I would try to manually configure the connectors. That's what I did

    Copy the folder wsconfig\3 wsconfig\14

    en...\wsconfig\wsconfig.properties - ensured site2 exist and referenced instance CF V1

    ...\wsconfig\14\jrun_iis6_wildcard.ini

    serverstore = /JRun4/lib/wsconfig/14jrunserver.store

    127.0.0.1:51007 = bootstrap - 51007 is the port of the proxy that the JRun Management Console is instance CF V1

    ... \wsconfig\jrunserver. Store

    proxyservers = (in file #3 set for P1 and P2 proxy ports)


    Then, I went into IIS and changed JWildCardHandler from site2 to \JRun4\lib\wsconfig\14 \jrun_iis6_wildcard.dll instead of \JRun4\lib\wsconfig\3\jrun_iis6_wildcard.dll. After you restart IIS sites site1 or site2 came. I went back in and came back JWildCardHandler back to the \JRun4\lib\wsconfig\3\jrun_iis6_wildcard.dll site2 and they both come. I think that I restarted CF both times, but really forget that I was in a bit of fashion panic.


    Is that what sounds like it should work? Does anyone know of any files that I missed trying to configure site2 to point to the CF V1 instance? Any ideas are appreciated.


    Joe


    What I understood why 2 Web sites were using the same instance of Coldfusion. 2 Web sites share the same files, sharing the same web.config file. Change the JWildCardHandler, in IIS, for a website has changed the web.config file that is shared by both sites. If I find a way around it, I'll post my solution in case anyone else runs into this situation.

  • By dictating the long notes, using Siri, Siri will stop as soon as I take a little break. Therefore, the note ends abruptly. Any solution for this?

    By dictating the long notes on Mac using Siri, Siri will stop as soon as I take a little break. Therefore, the note ends abruptly. Any solution for this?

    For long notes, you are better to use regular old dictation - under Mac OS for a few years now, Siri is not mandatory.

    To activate it, go to "System Preferences"-> keyboard-> dictation. Once enabled, you can press the "Fn" key twice to activate and dictate the long notes in any application.

    Siri is optimized for short, quick things. I don't think that you can change, you just use the method that is better to listen to what you want to do at the time (short notes, using Siri. Long notes, use dictation).

  • I get a notification to update when you sign in to firefox. When you try to update you get the message "connection to Server", which can go about 4 hours and never update

    I get a notification to update when you connect to firefox on my mac. When you try to update, I get a message "connect to Server" which can go over 4 hours and never update. It is most annoying. How can I remove that annoying popup which does not in any case all in ensuring that I have updated to the latest version?

    Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

    Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

    1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
    2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
    3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
      • Windows:

        • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
        • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
      • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
      • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
    4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
      1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
      2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

    Please report back to see if this helped you!

  • RIO crashes when you use tcp communication and web server

    Hello

    my controller cRIO crashes after a short time (usually less than a minute), when I use simultaneously to the web server (to interact with a remote control) and make some tcp communication (using STM 2.0 library) for data logging. Is it a problem of overall performance of the controller, or a problem of band network bandwidth (I'm happy to send some values every 100ms), or a programming problem; in the latter case, what should I do to make the system more stable?

    Kind regards

    PS: I use a cRIO 9022 with LV 2009f2 + RT and NOR-RIO 3.3.0

    Hello

    You can try with a simple while loop + delay instead of loop timed for TCP communication loop.

  • Multiple server Instances VI

    Hi all, I have to create multiple instances of a VI using VI server method. I put the 'incoming' of the VI client properties. If I call the VI client under the name sub - VI I can create N instances without any problem. But if I use the VI server method when it executes the method 'run', it gives me the following error:

    1000 error node invoke in Server.vi
    Possible reasons:
    LabVIEW: The VI isn't in a State compatible with this operation.
    Name of the method: Run VI

    I know that I can't open multiple instance of the front panel of this way, but I should be able to run it. Look at the example attached.

    Thank you...

    You must pass the '8' for your open VI reference option. It called the VI reentrantly, so that the error will not occur.

    However, how to call this way screw stops execution of the subVIs if the server ends. If you have to keep the 'alive' server or you must use VI models (* .lives) instead of screws

    Another note: If you have the Subvi the value modal dialog box, you will lock the other windows of your application LV is accessible!

    hope this helps,
