Comment on VMWare SRM using HDS AMS 2000 by dmuegge

We received a copy on CD with the purchase of our array.

I usually get updated software from our HDS account team. I do feel your pain though, HDS could do much better at providing updated documentation and software. The support portal needs to be overhauled.

Sorry, I could not be more help.

Regards,

Dave

I sure would like to know where you got the CCI software, we are in the middle of doing this and trying to locate the CCI software for windows is like a national secret.

This saved me a lot of time on a recent project that required some log-digging across multiple servers. Now I have something reusable and clean enough that other folks will be able to make sense of it down the line. Thanks a lot, great stuff.

Comment on HDS AMS 2000 Storage Resource Reporting with PowerShell by Ed

Hi Dave,
any chance I could get a copy of the scripts you use for creating LUNs? I’ve recently started using a AMS2100 and am battling with the very very slow Storage Nav to create a fair few luns at a time.
thanks

Comment on ADAM Administration with SharePoint and PowerShell by Murali

Dave,

Everything is updated as specified in iLoveSharePoint package’s readme.txt file And it is working fine for sharepoint server administrators..
The below error is simply shown on the webpart itself, it is not added in event log.
The error message appears while displaying the plain web part, without any custom script.

“Error on Initialization Exception: Requested registry access is not allowed”

Let me know if you need any more details on this issue.

Thanks,
Murali

Murali,

Without knowing details about your installation. I can only guess at the issue.

I would check to make sure the control was GAC’d properly and also added to the safecontrols in the SharePoint Web.config. There is some information on this in the comments on this post.

It is also possible there are some permissions problems in SharePoint or the application eventlog registry key, which gets created for each .Net application was not created properly.

I hope this helps point you in the right direction.

Thanks,

Dave

When i add ilovesharepoint (power web part v3.0) on the site it is giving an error “Error on Initialization Exception: Requested registry access is not allowed” for non-admin user. It is giving the error for plain web part, which is downloded from http://ilovesharepoint.codeplex.com/releases/view/18883
And it is running for server administrator fine.

Could you update me on this ASAP. It is little urgent.

How do you include the -checkpoint value into the Invoke-LPExcute command in the Powershell script if you want to use your logparser library to monitor a log file so it only queries the new log file lines since the last iterration?

I tried:
# Execute batch
Invoke-LPExecuteBatch $query $inputformat -checkpoint:
but this is not working.

Here is my PS code snippet:

$infile =
$checkpoint =
$query = @”
Select Text FROM $infile WHERE Text LIKE ‘%ERROR:%’
“@
$inputformat = Get-LPInputFormat “TEXTLINE”
Invoke-LPExecute $query $inputformat -checkpoint:$checkpoint

Script runs fine but no check file is created

Martin,

To GAC the Quest DLL you must drag and drop copy the dll from it’s installed location into the %windir%\assembly directory.
You can also use the regasm tool from the .Net framework SDK. Instructions for this method are on MSDN.

To set a safe control in sharepoint you need to add entries like below to the section of the web config. There should be other entries there already.

 Assembly="iLoveSharePoint.WebControls.PowerWebPart, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=7f77686204a6dd39" Namespace="iLoveSharePoint.WebControls" TypeName="*" Safe="True" />
 Assembly="Quest.ActiveRoles.ArsPowerShellSnapIn, Version=1.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=37ba620bec38a887" Namespace="Quest.ActiveRoles" TypeName="*" Safe="True" />

Thanks,
