Windows Server 2008 Enterprise upgrade of 2008 has beaten the bad standard
Hello
I installed a virtual server for production of Windows Server 2008 Standard, Windows Server 2008, Enterprise Edition (32-bit x 86/i386, support of license Volume and MAK), because I needed some additional features in the Enterprise edition. During the upgrade process, the server hung a few times, requiring a "hard reset" to continue the installation (which seems normal for the installation of Server 2008 on this virtual hardware).
However, after the installation is "complete", the server seems badly broken: the local view is empty, with a mobile mouse pointer. Remote Desktop connection with takes a long time (more than an hour!, even after additional restart), to go beyond 'Application user settings', and once connected, the basic points are broken: starting server manager reports that it might not activate a plugin whose GUID I can't find in a web search, open the 'centre' of the network shows a blank window by typing "NET START someservicename" or 'SC START someservicename' hangs rather than launch this service or signals an error.
Anyone know how to get out of this quagmire, short copy the latest data and wiping the hard drive?
Please repost your request in one of the most appropriate Microsoft Windows Server Forums, thank you!

ESXi with Windows Server 2008 Vm for the new product that has power...
I'm creating a new product with the host operating system being ESXi and several virtual machines, including two Windows Server 2008 SMV. This product has power cuts regular and virtual Windows machine doesn't start up without intervention from the console. Can I configure ESXi or the Windows virtual machine to manage power cuts?
Any suggestions?
Yes, if you want to manage power failures on the way down (off), you will need an inverter with a kind of function of network downtime. I use rackmount APC inverters with their client to stop network installed on each virtual machine. He takes care to stop the virtual machines.
Since I use the free version of ESX, I can not install the linux version of the network on ESX, so stop util...
on a stand-alone computer (mine is XP) with the client software of network downtime. install the tool of network downtime and the vCLI, then write a script of vCLI commands to stop the host. Stop network client software running the batch to the stop, then stop the machine independent and all its free.

No blue screens SP1 Windows Server 2008 R2 after the deployment model
Hi all
I searched around forums and google to see if someone else has fallen on this, but I can't seem to find anything. I have a 4.1 ESX 1 environment with vCenter 4.1 update 1
I created a new system of Windows Server 2008 R2 and it patched for the last levels without SP1. I cloned then it to a model. When I deploy a server through this model with customizations (new SID), blue ect just system screens and goes in a reboot of the endess. If I have the model with no customizations are deployed, it works fine. It seems the new sid or something that's a waste.
Any thoughts?
Hello.
Note: This discussion has been moved from the community of VMware ESX 4 on VMware vCenter Server community.
There was a discussion there not too long ago which may help.
Good luck!

There will be an upgrade path to windows 8 Windows server 2008 r2 or the preview?
I had windows vista and after a computer crash, I decided to build my own, but I used Windows Server 2008R2 for an operating system of DreamSpark...
There will be a way to upgrade windows 8 for my situation? or at least of Windows 8 preview (at a discount)?

Subject: No and Yes.
Not for windows 8 Windows Serevr 2008 R2. Do not upgrade a server with a consumer OS operating system. Windows Server 2012 (also RTM'd yesterday, I think) would be this way.
Yes since version 8 of preview Windows to Windows 8 Professional. Sort of. You can switch between preview release in full release, but it's just that the upgrade of XP you get just to keep your personal files - all installed applications and tastes are gone and you need to install fees. Might as well save and install clean anyway - since that's what it does basically.

VMware fusion 3 - adjustment to comments does not work with Windows Server 2008
I use 3 Fusion with existing image from Fusion 2.x on Windows Server 2008. After the upgrade to Fusiion 3 (I upgraded VMware tools (I've also tried their uninstall and reinstall) too) the guest operating system does not change the resolution when resizing the window. It does not change the resolution if/when I goes into full screen mode. I have an 'exclamation' mark in Device Manager and it says that "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43) ». I tried with and without 3D acceleration enabled.
WS2008 is where I spend most of my time in fusion, I hope that this can be solved somehow (a config directive file or something perhaps?)?
Thank you
Miha.
He had a similar position and the problem is specific to the version of the virtual machine virtual material.
Can upgrade you your VM hardware version? (Fusion UI have probably an option present as 'version Upgrade VM HW'... cannot check now but 90% sure about that.)
Thank you.

Windows server 2008 r2 outgoing smtp
Hello
I have a dell t300 running windows server 2008 R2. It is running Hyper-v, also manage a virtual machine running windows server 2008 r2 with exchange 2010 sp1.
Everything was fine, then all of a sudden, over the weekend, outgoing calls to port 25 have stopped working on the virtual machine. I can use Explorer (port 80) ok but nothing to the port 25 stops - it's as if the firewall blocks but I don't see where. I try to call port 25 on various other hosts using telnet and it does NOT work
The physical host works very well to port 25, as do all systems on my network, so the problem lies in the implementation of windows server 2008 r2 in the virtual machine somehow. I have another virtual machine running windows XP on the same host and that is called fine ut using telnet to the virtual network bridge is not the problem either. I'm guessing that the firewall or a corruption of the tcp stack sort
I ' LD be grateful for clues about where to look because email system has continued to send him and it's a major pain.
Thank you
Hi, Ive answered my own post! turns out the problem be mcafee that is running on the server. It was blocking the outgoing mail that he had detected an apparent threat. Unfortunately, it didn't say clearly that he had done this.
In any case, the deactivation of this area of mcafee has solved the problem. all I have to do now is to discover the threat!

Drivers for Windows Server 2008 R2
PE1950, 2950 and MD3000i MPIO on Windows Server 2008 R2
We're trying to nail a few dates to migrate our W2K8 R2 platform and plan the project. We have most of our technical plans in place, and we have the code. We have no Dell drivers however and there are several suspicious communications from Dell on this topic...
Note:
- Our engineers have missed on countless piano recitals, songs and episodes of American Idol while spending thousands of hours of testing and validation to make sure that dy products Dell running Windows Server 2008 R2 are the business-rea.
- We have pilot complete support for Windows Server 2008 R2 for Dell hardware so you can deploy, run and manage easily. You can go here to download the drivers.
If you view the service labels in our support of similar product groups, you will find an R2 option for servers... but the only public services on the PowerVault MD3000i you don't find any reference to R2 at all.
This is a list of Beta for PE obviously compatible servers, however it would make sense If Microsoft has included natively the right drivers for the Dell hardware in the distribution of Microsoft R2 RTM so, just can't find any supporting documentation and do not know if the network drivers are compatible with MD3000i.
#3: There are a few hacks to get drivers Windows 2008 MPIO inherited working with the RC R2 & MD3000i on this forum, but no reference to R2 in the MD3000i matrix and nothing on the site... it's why, we have wondering again where are the good drivers for R2 RTM?
Can you be it someone from Dell and or this forum please send information on these issues?
#1: driver compatibility of matrix for Windows Server 2008 R2 running on PE1950 and connected to an MD3000i PE2950 is a supported configuration? (Code R2 RTM was released to Microsoft volume license customers)
#2: the network drivers for the host machines included in the support of Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM? If this is true, are the drivers MPIO for MD3000i and iSCSI Dell other platforms included in the support of Windows Server 2008 R2 RTM as well then?
#3: If all the answers are not questions #1 and #2... could someone PLEASE contact people of pilot certification on Dell to see if they are same in QA at this point, if they plan to update and display an estimated date of implementation? We have contacted tech support, but received very vague answers on anything with R2 at this stage. There is a business directory and a path to escelation for support tickets, but the midrange as this makes it much easier to share information for the masses, we just have not yet found.
Thanks for your information, comments and your support!

I was finally sent to someone who could give me some information on this within Dell, here's what they said:
PE 1950/2950 drivers:
The pilot should be included natively in Windows Server 2008 R2 media, and if so, would these drivers would be supported by Dell in a production scenario.
MD3000i:
I know that we will not issue a new MDSM which will fund 2008 R2 until sometimes in October. The MD3000i requires MPIO to the MD3000i and Dell drivers driver installation to work properly. I'll see if there is other information that I can find. I understand your frustration and engineer told me that this has been corrected in the next MDSM and MD3000i firmware version in October.
So, it looks like October before MD3000i will be supported.

Pwerconnect 5448, Windows Server 2008 R2
Hello from France,
One of my projects for a client is to create authentication secure via 802. 1 X. I chose to use freeradius.
But the customer would not integrate a linux solution.
So, I went to Microsoft Windows server 2008 R2 and the NPS. I've implemented two solutions
First of all, a NAP. The solution works without any problem.
But the second Setup dell powerconnect peripheral authentication via active directory active a does not. I have found and tried many HOWTO on the web, but none are compatible with my device.
someone must deploy this solution with the Microsoft NAP? Is there a CEP of dell, which allow to solve?
Thanks for your help

I'm looking for information here, and I don't see anything that could change the configuration of the switch. Everything works fine until we add the RADIUS of Windows in the mixture. With the Wireshark that you see even to make the request to the server, but then the server never sent a rear package to authenticate the user and the switch has expired for authentication and it connected as rejected.

PowerEdge 2600 and Windows Server 2008 R2 installation problem
Hello.
I have a Dell PowerEdge 2600 server. Here is the configuration:
BIOS version: A14
2 x Intel Xeon 2800 MHz 533 MHz, 512 k (SL6VN)
4 x 1 GB of RAM
2 x 146 GB (IBM-IC35L146UCDY10-0) in RAID1
6 x 147 Gb (Fujitsu MAP3147NC) in a RAID5 configuration
Firmware for the PERC 4/Di 2.52D
It has worked well during the installation of Windows Server 2000. But now I need to install Windows Server 2008 R2.
Here's the problem: when I boot server to Windows Server 2008 R2 installation DVD, it starts to load the files and after a few minutes shows an error (I copy the exact error number) who said he's trying to run the 64-bit application, but unfortunately, this processor does not support 64-bit applications.
I was able to find a download for Windows 2008 x 64 on the page Support of Dell PowerEdge 2600. This means that you can install an operating system 64-bit on this PE 2600, is it not?
I know that Windows Server 2008 x 64 and Windows Server 2008 R2 are different operating systems, but 64-bit is always 64 - bit.
Also, I know that Intel Xeon 2800 MHz 533 MHz 512 kb (SL6VN) is a 32-bit processor, but if it was delivered with these processors, and there are downloads for 64-bit operating systems exist, it should be able to install these operating systems.
Please tell us how can I install Windows Server 2008 R2 on the PowerEdge 2600.
Thanks in advance.
The list 2008 x 64 in the list of OS for the 2600 is clearly a typographical error / support/web content team:
- The 2600's chipset does not support ALL 64-bit processors
http://Ark.Intel.com/products/27741/Intel-E7501-memory-controller - No. 6 systems are supported on 64-bit OS - not all listed here, but the 6600 lists NO 64-bit OS (8 G was the first):
http://advisors.Dell.com/AgileWeb/iDrivematrixView.aspx - 2003 x 64 is not no more, which would be if 64 bits have been supported all the
You pay for 2008 x 86 as the latest OS on 2600... or get a newer server (starting with the 8th generation of servers as the PE 2800) to operate 2008R2.
"2008R2 is a 64-bit operating system that is not as forgiving as 2008 x 64 on the execution of threads of 16 bits."
16-bit applications are not supported in 64-bit operating systems:

Uninstalling Oracle 11 g RAC from a Windows Server 2008 Server
Try to uninstall Oracle 11 g RAC from a Windows Server 2008.
Following the instructions: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e25666/rem_orcl.htm
I was able to run the batch: C:\app\oracle\product > 11.2.0\dbhome_1\deinstall\deinstall.bat
Last messages spoke uninstall successfully.
However, I had problems trying to delete the folder directory. According
Oracle forums, on Windows there are known problems this generic
"svchost.exe" process blocks some Oracle DLLs at startup time. To solve
the question that I followed the instructions:
(1) rename %ORACLE_HOME%\bin to something else 2) reboot the machine 3) now remove the complete file
Then I went to the registry and delete the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Oracle
Restart the machine.
Problem is that Oracle Services still exists on Windows Services (services.msc). So I see it again:
-Oracle Service object
-OracleASMService + ASM1
-OracleJobSchedulerINTER1
-OracleOHService
-OracleOraCrs11g_home1TNSListener
-OracleOraCrs11g_home1TNSListenerLISTENER_SCAN1
-OracleServiceINTER1
These services link to executable files are deleted as:
C:\app\11.2.0\grid\BIN\TNSLSNR
because directory folder has been deleted.
What should I do to remove these Windows services?Hello
You can try the following command to remove services in windows server 2008
Since the prompt command (run as administrator)
Prompt > sc delete "service name".
In this case, your command would look like
Prompt > sc delete "Oracle Service object.
Let me know if it helps
See you soon,.
