similar to: VSS and Samba on Tru64 Unix

We have recently moved our VSS database from windows 2k to samba, initially all looked fine but have come accross a problem. Quite often VSS complains saying it can't write to "names - acess denied". The file its refering to is names.dat in data/ (for those that know VSS) I believe this to be some sort of locking issue. Sometimes getting all other clients to quite VSS solves the

Good day to all, I have been using samba for many months now. And I find it very useful. We have samba-2.2.1a running on a linux operating system. Perhaps before, I haven't had a problem running a samba service since only few user make access to our samba server. Now, many groups requested for a samba account for file sharing purposes. 1 particular group requested to host their visual source

I don''t know if VSS has this capability, but essentially if it can temporarily quiesce a device like a data base does for "warm standby" then a snapshot should work. This would be a very simple Windows side script/batch: 1) Q-Disk 2) Remote trigger snapshot 3) Un Q-Disk I have no idea where to even begin researching VSS unfortunately...

Hello I have a bit of the strange problem. Our developers use MS VSS to check in/out files to or from Solaris drives mapped through samba. When they "set current working directory" to a mapped Solaris drives VSS doesn't recognize files named with uppercase letters converting them into lower case. As a result VSS denies permission to change these files. Looking at the same files in

Hi all, We are considering moving our VSS database from a Win2K server to a samba server. All clients are Win2K clients. I used the VSS tool "testlock.exe" to make sure the native lock mode can be used. The test was successful, and I saw that an SMBlock transaction was performed, and a reply_lockingX was replied. When I opened a VSS database on the samba server and started to use it -

Hello, I am using wine on RH9. I am running Visual Source Safe like thus wine --ssexp.exe THe VSS GUI starts OK. the Visual Source Safe database is on Windows Partition. This Windows Partition is mounted on my Linux like thus: mount -t nfs -o rw,nolock 192.168.0.77:/mnt/server/Share /mnt/vss I am able to launch a VSS session : I can successfully check out and check in files (I point my

With a wine about a month old, running in managed mode, when I ask Visual Source Safe for a revision history, the window doesn't appear, but vss's main window hangs as if it's waiting for me to close the history window. Not much to do at that point but kill Wine. (I also received the error err:tooltips:TOOLTIPS_Timer How did this happen? at about the same time, but that wasn't

Hi, I install a new 4 Port GBit Server with centos 6.3 and I'd like to use nic bonding. Searching for a good how to pinted to this page: http://www.how2centos.com/centos-6-channel-bonding/ My question: Is this the current, good way to bond the 4 ports? The other question: What should I set on the cisco switch for the Port-channel options? As far as I understand for performance and

Did you ever find a solution for using a linux working directory with VSS? Thanks, Charles

Hi Folks, Recently I took the patch Elias Penttil? wrote and 'forward-ported' it to rsync 3. For people who don't know what it does, it implements backup of open files on Windows with rsync. Because I think rsync 3 is more efficient and more current in comparison to rsync 2. I made a small readme-page with information about what I've done so far and the

I am using a Solaris + ZFS environment to export a iSCSI block layer device and use the snapshot facility to take a snapshot of the ZFS volume. Is there an existing Volume Shadow Copy (VSS) implementation on Windows for this environment? Thanks S Joshi -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

We are in the process of migrating to new database servers. Our current RAC clusters are running OCFS2 1.2.9 on RHEL 4. Our new servers are running OCFS2 1.6 OEL5. If possible, we would like to minimize the amount of data that needs to move as we migrate to the new servers. We have the following questions: 1. Can we mount an existing OCFS2 1.2 volume on a servers running OCFS2 1.6?

Hi all, Would anyone know if CentOS 4 and 5 is LSB certified? I have not found any info on RH being LSB certified either. Is RH also LSB certified? In case you need to know, I am compiling a list of LSB certified Linux just for comparison as to who would want to be LSB certified. Just to see if it matters to ppl if it matters to be certified. --- Join OSCC MAMPU Mailing Lists

Hi all, currently on a lenovo R60, after upgrading the CentOS 5.1 I cant detect the USB device any more. The initial installation doesnt have any problems at all.

Hi all, Just found out that the Poweredge R300 cant even load the CentOS 5.2 64bit installer. Had to revert to Ubuntu. Seems its a driver problem. Pity, but does this kind of case apply to many other servers? --- OSCC MAMPU MyMeeting Version 2.0 Release http://knowledge.oscc.org.my/solution-areas/application/mymeeting

Dear All, I have a pair of .cpp and .def file can be compiled using VC++ and works perfectly well in S-PLUS. I wanted to do the same for R; so I followed the guidline given in "Building from a source-code library under Windows" as much as possible and manage to compile them using VC++ and call it from R. But it gives different answer from the one called from S-Plus. I know that I did

I have been asking at technet about if I could snapshot an exchange db volume[1]. But it looks like that windows server backup is sort of doing the same. Creating vs image, and backup that one. However they truncated the exchange db log files after a succesful procedure. I was wondering if someone is doing this already. How does the guest freeze work exactly in windows (In linux it is quite

backuppc does support pre- and post- backup scripts, so it is possible to implement backing up from vss.

Is anyone out there running Microsoft's Visual Source Save with a samba share? We are doing so here and are encountering difficulties. The "working directory" is a samba share. It seems that VSS is not manipulating file permissions appropriately when items are checked in and out. User always has write access to the item. Is anyone using MS VSS successfully with samba and care to
