Windows Clustering with different hardware 2012R2

Hello

We have a two 2012R2 Windows cluster node that has a HP Proliant Gen8 and Gen7 server, we have added the Gen7 server as a temporary measure. Although the material does not match the cluster seems to operate normally and the Validation Wizard passes without any significant errors. However, I am not happy that we have a Gen7 server in the cluster and that he wants to replace it with an another Gen8. The new Gen8 server is a slightly newer model, it has different processors, etc., but the same amount of memory bus faster speeds.

Someone at - it experience of use of a cluster of slightly different hardware? Microsoft is not specific and said that he should not be identical, but similar, https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj612869.aspx. But I've read elsewhere that the CPU families must match, which they are not in my case - the old server has Intel Xeon X 5660 2 x 6-core Westmere-Eps and the new Gen8 has Intel Xeon E5 2690 2 x 8 core Sandy Bridge-EP/EX.

Is it true that if the Validation Wizard passes we will be supported by Microsoft, more we should not get any problems. Or do we get problems that the material does not correspond exactly.

Appreciate any input you might have.

Thank you

Paul

  • Deployment of a program to clients with different hardware

    Hi all

    I have a general problem with the customers with different hardware. I would appreciate any advice on the subject.

    For example, I have two clients with two different cameras. I wrote a module-oriented camera the camera parent object and children Camera1 and camera2, so that the same logic works for both cameras. I want to deploy the program to clients, but so he could work for two clients, I need to install the drivers of the two cameras at two customers. Is there a way to keep the object oriented and modular code without installing all the drivers of material possible to all customers?

    In the case of two cameras, this isn't a big deal, but my program is more complicated than that and it will interface with dozens of spectrometers, cameras and scanners. I don't want to install each client drivers for all configurations possible. Is there a way to get around this?

    Thank you

    Danielle

    Another alternative would be to use a plugin architecture for your specific items to the customer. Create a Setup program for your application and a camera specific driver for the plugin. Each plugin will be specific to a type of camera-specific and includes the appropriate drivers. Of course this requires your customers to use 2 installers but only the appropriate drivers will be installed. You might be able to pack as a single installer that runs the camera installation after the installation of the application program. Your actual installer would all compatible drivers, but the user will be prompted for which device they use.

  • New windows open with different toolbars (and missing URL bar)

    When I select the button 'New window' or 'Open in a new window' in the context menu, opens a new window of Firefox - however, the toolbars are completely different from the original open window. Specifically, the URL address bar is missing.

    I can add, but change how to change my original toolbar installation.

    More bad behavior: even if I change the new window to the way I wanted, new windows open in this window to return to the modified version, with no toolbar location.

    You can try:

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions of the origin of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > appearance/themes).

  • Distributed with different hardware system

    Greetings

    I would like to know if I can create a distributed system with 2 ACS devices/different instances (1121 and 3415) with the same version.  If this is not possible, I would like to recover the replication of configuration (network devices and customer AAA, shell etc.) to build another system of distribution with the same instance (hardware and version).

    Sounds good. If you accept the question as answered, please consider rating the thread.

  • SkyDrive, Office 365, and Windows 8 with different user names

    A few months I bought Office 365, put him on a victory. 7 computers and Office Open using a Gmail account for my user ID (do not have a live account). Office / Skydrive works very well. Just bought a new victory. laptop 8 and open a real account to connect to the new laptop. The Live username is my login Win 8. The skydrive on the default values of portable Win 8 new a account linked to the new Live user name empty Skydrive. How can I get the new victory. 8 portable by default to the original Skydrive with gmail (many docs in this Skydrive) username?  I am looking for a long term solution. Should I "Rename" the account Office 365 for the new Live account? Can I use the login gmail as my victory. Sign in now and all the future widows editions years on the road? Thanks a lot for your help!

    If you use your ID gmail to access skydrive, it's already your microsoft account.  (a microsoft account is not linked to a particular area such as outlook.com, hotmail.com or live.com).  your @gmail.com can also be your microsoft account.

    That said, you can use your id gmail for everything (the computer connection, skydrive account) and stop using the new microsoft account, you just created, or you can set up skydrive just to use your gmail account and continue logging in to your computer with the new microsoft account.

    to activate the skydrive account, launch skydrive, reveal the charms bar (move the mouse to the lower right), click settings, click options, and then click the logout button.  next time you start skydrive, you will be asked to log in.  Sign in with your gmail id and your password.

  • Open a virtual machine to different hardware

    Hello

    I read in the documentation center, it's good, as long as all the files are copied correctly, to open a virtual machine on a different host computer with different hardware.

    My question is this, will be the new host with a different material, the original host, recognize the virtual machine snapshots, I had? I could not find that answer, and despite in collaboration with VMware for a year I never found in this situation.

    This virtual machines are very important, they have my TI final degree of engineering project, but my phone no longer works.

    Everything will work as before right?

    Thank you all!

    Hi, Carlos

    and welcome to the forums!

    You are right: If you copy the whole directory to the VM to another machine and open the vmx file in VMware Workstation it then you will have the virtual machine available in exactly the same State as on the old machine (incl. images.).

    If you want to have a backup of the virtual machine, then you can just copy the whole directory of the virtual machine to another location. It is perhaps a good idea in your situation.

  • ESXi 5.5/Workstation 8, how to make my computer prompted with different CPU

    Hello gurus,

    Let's start which is my goal. I need to create a virtual machine with different hardware (I have no problems with the HARD drive and RAM options). I need the CPU on the system invited to be Intel or SMA.

    My host system is with Intel CPU and Intel part it I don't find any problem. But there the prompt with the SMA is the trickiest part. Does anyone know any thing or any software that can make this possible?

    I also tried to build ESXi 5.5 as a guest on my workstation, but here I can't find how to (if possible at all) the CPU ADM.

    PS Comments OS it is win2k3/8/12

    Thank you!

    Hello Asen,

    You can abstract only that physically you have, so you can't emulate AMD CPUS on Intel CPU hardware.

    For guest with AMD CPU instructions you must use physical server with the desired provider in your case with AMD processor installed server.

    Kind regards

    Or they are corrupt, try to get a new copy and try again.

    For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

    It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

    Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

    How to: What are my options for Windows 7 reinstall media?

    Make sure you scroll down and read the section:

    What to do if you cannot get your manufacturer recovery media, refuse to use or to buy it or the Microsoft Software Recovery Website does not work?

    Hello

    • Text prediction is only available in English, French, Italian, German and Spanish. To enable text prediction in a specific language, you must first install additional language files for that language. For more information, see install or change a display language.

  • Have Peachtree accounting program 7.0 running on Windows 98. As for move it to Windows XP on a different computer. It will be a race? Install on Windows 7 with XP virtualization?

    Have a (1995) Peachtree Accounting program 7.0 running on Windows 98.  I would like to move to Windows XP on a different computer.  It will load and run?  Also if I want to install on Windows 7 with XP virtualization.   Will it work here?  In both cases I can install the program with the original installation disc?

    1995 is 6 years prior to Windows XP, which is quite a long time. I would not be able to tell if it will work or not. You could find a computer that is running Windows XP and try to install it there. If it works, then it probably works on Windows XP Mode also.

    Hi @OHIMATAS,

    I see by your post that you are unable to network that is connected the printer to the Windows XP computer, but Windows 7 computer. I can help you with this.

    Make sure that the Windows XP computer is connected to the correct network name, not a guest or the other network.

    Print a configuration page to get the IP address of the printer.

    Print a Configuration Page.

    Try and access the printer on the Windows XP Embedded Web server.

    Type the IP address in the address bar of your web browser. (Internet Explorer)

    It loads the page Web has?

    If you are unable to access SAP of the printer, check the IP address on the computer to see if the first 3 sets of numbers match the printer IP. They must match to be on the same network.

    Go to start, type executer run in the start search box, type cmd, and then type ipconfig.
    Check the IPV4 address.
    Now, check the IPV4 address for the printer.
    Do the first 3 sets of numbers match?

    Try and ping the printer.

    In the same window, type ping printers (space between ping and IP address) IP address
    What are the results?

    Run the Wizard add printer in printers and faxes, if you were able to access EWS of the printer.

    Please provide detailed results if you're still having problems.

    Good day!

  • I work with dreamweaver cs6 running on Apple Mavericks.  The site definition window shows all different fields by opening. I have to click blind with the mouse cursor in this window until the fields appear.  It is a very bored

    I work with dreamweaver cs6 running on Apple Mavericks.

    The site definition window shows all different fields by opening. I have to click blind with the mouse cursor in this window until the fields appear.

    It is somehow very annoying to complete the connection to the server and all the other things.

    Is there a solution?

    If this is the case, I think that it is perhaps a good idea to uninstall Dreamweaver. Before you reinstall, make sure that your personal configuration file has been deleted (see reinstalling Dreamweaver (or the extensions Manager) fails to solve problems). You should then have a completely clean copy of Dreamweaver has again the default settings of the program.
