    I need a solution Does anyone know if there's a workflow that handles the Add Comment logic or know how to change the way it works? It's referencing the http://wfserver/ProcessManager/Reports/EditComment...? page in IIS and we want to change the way it handles comments. Basically if you edit a comment it shows you the changes but keeps the original one in there. For example if you send an email out that has sensitive information in it like a password, if you edit it it still shows the password in the ticket which makes it pretty useless.

In that case the component provides a submapping branch for each field of complex type. The point is these field submappings are done always into new objects regardless…

    I need a solution I want to download OEBS but do not see a download for it looking at "all products" on Symantecs product portal. I do see Oracle RAC and storage foundation HA. Do I need to download storage foundation HA or Oracle RAC; Install that, then install OEBS agents on top of that? I ave a eval key for Oracle RAC to get going while the PO is being cut for  OEBS. IU did rad OEBS documentation and it looks like OEBS might be a collection of agents. Thanks.   jim.ponczko@avnet.com/ 480-643-6355 6362261 1323384198

  • IP address as hostname, when adding Managed Host through gendeploy.

    I need a solution When using the gendeploy.sh script the Managed Host will appear in the Central Server with its IP address, instead of its hostname. The DNS is working properly in the Managed Host. The hostname and IP-address is also configured in /etc/hosts. If the managed host is configured though the central server, the hostname will appear correctly. Otherwise the VOM is working fine. We are keen on getting the gendeploy.sh configuration to work properly, due to our ability to run the gendeploy.sh from our central patch tool. ### Managed Host printings # host sehan9415cb…

Platform is a very legacy Sun E2900 with dual SCSI internal disks and FC to an external array, with Veritas VM in charge of all the disk.  Problem is with the internals, which are/were configured as a mirrored rootdg pair.  One of the disks died and was pysically replaced, and seems to be fine (green light is now on, and cfgadm -a says connected and configured).  Nothing was done with Veritas up to this point (and maybe that's the…

  • Making Virtual IP as source IP on Windows 2008 R2 node

    David Colpoys
    25 Jan 2012 | 2:59 pm
    I need a solution   We are running SFHA v5.1 for Windows 2008 R2 and we would like the floating virtual IP assigned to resource group to the be the source IP of the node instead of the default IP assigned to the interface. I'm a little fuzzy on how Windows chooses which IP is the source IP if there are multiple IP's assigned to an interface, but I was wondering if there is any configuration setting that can be chosen within SF.   This is important because the firewall team only wants to allow through the VIP of the resource group.

    21 Jan 2012 | 10:03 pm
    I need a solution Trying to configure VVR after adding SAN space without application downtime on Solaris 10 OS. On 09/08/2011 Heim Wally from Symantec posted the following solution in relation to Windows OS: As you mentioned, you can increase the size of a volume in two ways. 1. You can add another disk to the servers, add it to the disk group, then expand the volume on to the new disk (assuming that you are not running a stripe or RAID5 volume.)  This can be done with no down time to the application at all - AKA it can be done on a live production system. 2. You can increase the…

I have been asked to investigate implementing a distributed file system for one of our clients.  The client has a datacentre and 25 remote offices.  We would like to implement a file-based architecture where each remote site has a copy of its files, which are then replicated back to the datacentre.  The datacentre copy will then be used for backup processes and in the event that the site server fails. This is all well and good, but we also need to implement stub-file based…

    I need a solution Hi Forum, I setup a MSCS cluster with two nodes. I use SFW 5.1 SP2 for storage virtualization. Failover clustering with the SFW virtualized volumes works just fine. Now I want to replicate the data of the SFW volumes to another disk array and I want to use VVR for that purpose. Already installed VVR feature successfully during SFW setup. I've got two seperates disk arrays for the Primary resp. Secondary Replicator Logs. 1. I want to use the two MSCS cluster nodes also as Primary resp. Secondary Replicator Nodes. I read that you cannot add more than one single SFW disk…

  • SRL usage alert

    4 Dec 2011 | 5:51 am
    I need a solution Hi Guys, Need your help in clarifying  a couple of things in VVR.   When the SRL log usage reaches 80 %, by default it sends an alert. Can we modify this value and reduce it, for instance make it 60 %. As far as I know it cannot be changed, but if there is a way, kindly let me know. Also when you setup a rule for alerts in Rule Manager, the rlink.logusage alert will give an alert when SRL reaches 80 %, right? SRL usage is visible when the RLINKS are attached, but if we create a checkpoint and then stop the replication, the RLINKS are detached, in this case I cannot…
