Sun Glassfish Installation

% java -version
The installation is very easy as the download file include all necessary files.
1. Download Glassfish into the directory the server should later run
2. Run:
% java -Xmx256m -jar filename.jar
This command will unbundle GlassFish and create a new directory structure rooted under a directory named 'glassfish'.
3. % cd glassfish
4. Set the execute permission for the Ant binaries that are included with the GlassFish bundle. If you have not the necessary permissions run the command as sudo (you have to put "sudo" before the command)
% chmod -R +x lib/ant/bin
% lib/ant/bin/ant -f setup.xml
5. start the server using the asadmin command. For that be maybe you first have to change the current directory to /glassfish/bin.
% asadmin Use "exit" to exit and "help" for online help.
6. next start the database simply needed to run
./asadmin
7. asadmin> start-database

7. and finally you can start the server...
asadmin> start-domain domain1 Starting Domain domain1, please wait.....
8. The server is now up and running. You can log into the web admin interface by the following url:
http://localhost:4848
Login as Admin - userid="admin", password ="adminadmin"
./asadmin start-domain domain1


Changing Default GlassFish v3 Prelude Port Numbers 4848, 8080, and 8181

When you create courses, you sometimes do crazy things like installing multiple GlassFish domain administration servers (DAS) in a single host.

When you install GlassFish, it gives you default port numbers of of 4848 (for administration), 8080 (for the HTTP listener), and 8181 (for the HTTPS listener). But what do you do if you want to change them?

I got a few ideas googling "asadmin port number" and the like but couldn't really find a good example. So, I figured out how you do it and thought I would post an example in case anyone finds themselves in the same predicament as I did today.

Here are some examples that work in GlassFish v3 Prelude:

1.To change the HTTP port to 10080:

asadmin set server.http-service.http-listener.http-listener-1.port=10080


2.To change the HTTPS port to 10443:

asadmin set server.http-service.http-listener.http-listener-2.port=10443


3.To change the administration server port to 14848:

asadmin set server.http-service.http-listener.admin-listener.port=14848



It's handy to know you can grep for server properties in GlassFish v3 Prelude as follows:

asadmin get server | grep listener

shows all the properties with the text "listener" in them.

In GlassFish v3 Prelude, you can set port numbers for administration and the HTTP listener in the installer - but not for the HTTPS listener. You might find yourself needing to explicitly specify the administration port in your asadmin command. For example:

asadmin set --port 14848 server.http-service.http-listener.http-listener-2.port=10443

Glassfish path

C:\glassfish\config\asenv.bat:

REM set AS_JAVA=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_04\jre/..
set AS_JAVA=C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_16

What is new in Windows 7?

What’s new in Windows Server 2008

Active Directory Domain Services (formerly known as Active Directory) and Identity Management in Windows Server 2008 now cover several different services:

Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)
Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS)
Active Directory Lightweight Directory Services (AD LDS)
Active Directory Rights Management Services (AD RMS).
Active Directory Certificate Services (AD CS)
Each service represents a Server Role, a new concept in Windows Server 2008.


There have been a lot of new features and functions added to the Active Directory in Windows Server 2008.

In this article I will focus on the Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) in Windows Server 2008, which includes several enhancements and new features compared to Windows Server 2003.

Here is a short overview of the main changes and new Domain Services functionality, which I will focus on in this article:

Active Directory Domain Services - Read-Only Domain Controllers
Active Directory Domain Services - Restartable Active Directory Domain Services
Active Directory Domain Services - Fine-Grained Password Policies

Active Directory Domain Services

The Domain Services functionality has been carried forward and updated in Windows Server 2008, along with an improved setup wizard (Server Manager). This also provides new management options for AD DS features such as Read-Only Domain Controllers (RODCs).

The Active Directory Read-Only Domain Controller (RODC) is a new type of domain controller in Windows Server 2008. With an RODC, organizations can easily deploy a domain controller in locations where physical security cannot be guaranteed.

The RODC’s main purpose is to improve security in branch offices. In branch offices it is often hard to get the physical security needed for an IT infrastructure, especially for Domain Controllers that contain sensitive data. Often a DC can be found under a desk in the office. If someone gets physical access to the DC, it is not hard to manipulate the system and get access to the data. The RODC solves these issues.

The essentials of RODC are:

Read-Only Domain Controller
Administrative Role Separation
Credential Caching
Read-Only DNS

Read-Only Domain Controller
RODC holds a non-writable and read-only copy of the Active Directory database with all objects and attributes. RODC only supports uni-directional replication of Active Directory changes, which means that the RODC always replicates directly with the Domain Controllers in the HUB site.

Administrative Role Separation

You can delegate local administrator permissions for the RODC server to any user in Active Directory. The delegated user account will now be able to log onto the server and do server maintenance tasks, without having any AD DS permissions and the user does not have access to other Domain Controllers in Active Directory, this way security is not compromised for the domain.

Credential Caching

What is difference between role and features in windows server 2008?

Roles as major functions of the server and Features as smaller add-on packages. Whether it is a role or a feature, these are all Microsoft Windows 2008 add-ons, not 3rd party applications.
Here are some examples of each:

Roles

Windows AD/DC Server,
DNS,
DHCP,
File,
Print,
NAP,
Terminal Server,
IIS,
WDS,
WSS

Features
.NET,
Bitlocker Encryption,
BITS,
Remote Assistance,
SMTP Server,
SNMP,
telnet server & client,
failover,
NLB,
TFTP,
Windows Server Backup,
WINS,
Powershell

Troubleshooting some common SBS 2003 issues

Subject: Process (store.exe) Alert on ServerName
Alert on ServerName at date time
The store.exe process is allocating more memory than usual.
Check to see if you are having problems with e-mail. If so, stop and then restart the Microsoft Exchange Information Store service. You can disable this alert or change its threshold by using the Change Alert Notifications task in the Server Management Monitoring and Reporting taskpad.

It seems to me that first thing is first, lets determine how much memory store.exe is actually consuming. Also, I would like to know if it really is actually causing a problem in performance. If it is, it may explain why the server appears sluggish to some users.

Determining how much memory store.exe is using now, is not hard of course. Personally, I usually grab Sysinternals process explorer for this, cause it gives me more and better info than the default task manager app, I might grab it later, for now I only want a memory usage overview.

memory dump file options for Windows Server 2003, Windows XP, and Windows 2000

configure Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Microsoft Windows XP, and Microsoft Windows 2000 to write debugging information to three different file formats (also known as memory dump files) when your computer stops unexpectedly as a result of a Stop error (also known as a "blue screen," system crash, or bug check). You can also configure Windows not to write debugging information to a memory dump file.

Windows can generate any one of the following memory dump file types:

* Complete memory dump
* Kernel memory dump
* Small memory dump (64 KB)

Complete memory dump
A complete memory dump records all the contents of system memory when your computer stops unexpectedly. A complete memory dump may contain data from processes that were running when the memory dump was collected.

If you select the Complete memory dump option, you must have a paging file on the boot volume that is sufficient to hold all the physical RAM plus 1 megabyte (MB).

If a second problem occurs and another complete memory dump (or kernel memory dump) file is created, the previous file is overwritten.

Note The Complete memory dump option is not available on computers that are running a 32-bit operating system and that have 2 gigabytes (GB) or more of RAM.

For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
274598 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/274598/ ) Complete memory dumps are not available on computers that have 2 or more gigabytes of RAM
Back to the top
Kernel memory dump
A kernel memory dump records only the kernel memory. This speeds up the process of recording information in a log when your computer stops unexpectedly. Depending on the RAM in your computer, you must have between 150MB and up to 2GB of pagefile space available based on server load and the amount of physical RAM available for page file space on the boot volume.

This dump file does not include unallocated memory or any memory that is allocated to User-mode programs. It includes only memory that is allocated to the kernel and hardware abstraction layer (HAL) in Windows 2000 and later, and memory allocated to Kernel-mode drivers and other Kernel-mode programs. For most purposes, this dump file is the most useful. It is significantly smaller than the complete memory dump file, but it omits only those parts of memory that are unlikely to have been involved in the problem.

If a second problem occurs and another kernel memory dump file (or a complete memory dump file) is created, the previous file is overwritten.
Back to the top
Small memory dump
A small memory dump records the smallest set of useful information that may help identify why your computer stopped unexpectedly. This option requires a paging file of at least 2 MB on the boot volume and specifies that Windows 2000 and later create a new file every time your computer stops unexpectedly. A history of these files is stored in a folder.

This dump file type includes the following information:

* The Stop message and its parameters and other data
* A list of loaded drivers
* The processor context (PRCB) for the processor that stopped
* The process information and kernel context (EPROCESS) for the process that stopped
* The process information and kernel context (ETHREAD) for the thread that stopped
* The Kernel-mode call stack for the thread that stopped

This kind of dump file can be useful when space is limited. However, because of the limited information included, errors that were not directly caused by the thread that was running at the time of the problem may not be discovered by an analysis of this file.

If a second problem occurs and a second small memory dump file is created, the previous file is preserved. Each additional file is given a distinct name. The date is encoded in the file name. For example, Mini022900-01.dmp is the first memory dump generated on February 29, 2000. A list of all small memory dump files is kept in the %SystemRoot%\Minidump folder.

Configure the dump type
To configure startup and recovery options (including the dump type), follow these steps.

Note Because there are several versions of Microsoft Windows, the following steps may be different on your computer. If they are, see your product documentation to complete these steps.

1. Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
2. Double-click System.
3. On the Advanced tab, click Startup and Recovery.

Tools for the various dump types
You can load complete memory dumps and kernel memory dumps with standard symbolic debuggers, such as I386kd.exe. I386kd.exe is included with the Windows 2000 Support CD-ROM.

Load small memory dumps by using Dumpchk.exe. Dumpchk.exe is included with the Support Tools for Windows 2000 and Windows XP. You can also use Dumpchk.exe to verify that a memory dump file has been created correctly.

Technical support for x64-based versions of Microsoft Windows
Your hardware manufacturer provides technical support and assistance for x64-based versions of Windows. Your hardware manufacturer provides support because an x64-based version of Windows was included with your hardware. Your hardware manufacturer might have customized the installation of Windows with unique components. Unique components might include specific device drivers or might include optional settings to maximize the performance of the hardware. Microsoft will provide reasonable-effort assistance if you need technical help with your x64-based version of Windows. However, you might have to contact your manufacturer directly. Your manufacturer is best qualified to support the software that your manufacturer installed on the hardware.
