Windows Server 2012 Event ID 4231

Hello,

I am experiencing Event ID 4231 in several of my servers. (all ports being in use). After which I am unable to remote desktop into it. I can only restart it. 

However, we are running a count on the ports being in use every 5 minutes and do not see an abnormal increase (below 500). 

I have read some sites which mention that it's due to some Microsoft Patches. However, we only install security patches and this is only happening to some of my servers (with DB installed) and not all. I read the below

https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/8d29f351-6bc4-4ad8-9fcc-02d827e05536/ephemeral-port-exhaustion-event-id-4231?forum=winserver8gen

We have no iSCSI disks being used as well. 

Appreciate any help I can get. Thank you

Windows Server Licensing on VMware ESXi Host

Hello

I have a concern about Windows Server licensing on VMWare ESXi hosts. I have a requirement to deploy 6 x Windows Server Virtual Machines across 2 node VMware ESxi Cluster. 

So If the hardware servers have VMware ESXi installed how does this licensing comply? 

1. Can we just purchase 3 x Windows Server Standard licenses for comply above requirement? (For 6 x VMs - Windows Server Standard/2VMs)
2. If yes, How many core licenses should we purchase?

Please clarify.

Dot Net Framework 3.5 End Of Life

Hi there,

We had a heated discussion at work whereby we wanted to know how long .NET Framework 3.5 will be officially supported. As it is treated as Operating System component we were assuming that the extended support ends at the same time as the extended support for Windows Server 2008R2 SP1 (1/14/2020).

Is that train of thought reasonable, or will it be supported longer as it is a feature that can be installed out of the box in Windows Server 2016 as well?

Windows Server 2012 PDCe attains and then loses sync with our NTP source.

$

0

We are running an engineering network hanging off the third burb of our hosting organization's Cisco ASR.  The ASR is a stratum 2 device having synced time with their GPS Time Server. 

We have configured our core Cisco switch to pull time from the ASR and to make itself available as a Stratum 3 time source for our network. I have had no issues with the other infrastructure devices syncing.  I configured our PDC emulator to use the core node using the following command:

w32tm /config /manualpeerlist:10.1.1.164 /syncfromflags:manual /reliable:yes /update

The immediate result was Time-Service Event ID 37 - "The time provider NtpClient is currently receiving valid time data from 10.1.1.164 (ntp.m|0x0|0.0.0.0:123->10.1.1.164:123)."

However, four minutes later, it was followed up with a Time-Service Event ID 47 warning - "Time Provider NtpClient: No valid response has been received from manually configured peer 10.1.1.164 after 8 attempts to contact it. This peer will be discarded as a time source and NtpClient will attempt to discover a new peer with this DNS name. The error was: The peer is unreachable."

Obviously, since the first effort succeeded, it is not a firewall issue.

I will continue monitoring the events and see if the issue clears again but does anyone have any ideas where I could begin researching?

Thanks,
Steve

In which site(s) should the Licensing Site Settings and TS-Enterprise-License-Server objects be?

$
0

Hi there,

Lately I had to replace our licensing server in our environment. This Licensing server handles KMS activation (VA) and Terminal Services licenses.

Everything works well, but now I'm a bit confused about what I saw lately in AD Sites and Services. My question, simply put is, in which sites should I expect the TS-Enterprise-License-Server and the Licensing Site Settings objects to be? Should it be under every of my sites or only in the site where it resides. Right now, some of the sites have the entries, some others don't. I fear my predecessors tried something by creating the entries themselves but I'm not sure. And most recent sites, that have been created in the last years, do not have the objects listed..?.?

Additional Info

  • The environment is pretty simple, only one domain.
  • A DNS entry exists for location of the Licensing server. This one seems fine...
  • I have only one server whit these roles in my environment.
  • The server could be moved using VMware SRM to another site. Should the objects mentioned above be created in this site as well?

Thanks a lot in advance for your replies!

Disable outbound replication with Repadmin and password changes

I was wondering if I disable outbound replication with the repadmin tool for a schema update, does this stop password changes from being replicated to other DC's? I am disabling outbound replication on the PDC which is where password changes happen.

"The certificate received from the remote server has either expired or is not yet valid. The TLS connection request has failed. The attached data contains the server certificate."

I have servers getting this message, trying to connect to my domain controllers.  I don't know if it is causing a problem or not, but would like to get rid of this meesage from the system eventlog of my servers to eliminate it as being a problem.  How can I address this error?

To be more specific, one server getting this message trying to connect to my DC is an sql/ERP server.  Another server is a citrix xenapp vda server.  I think the connections have to do with ldap.  Any assistance is appreciated.

Event Log Forwarding (PUSH) not working - collector HTTP URL not available

$
0
0

Given the requirements vary with Collector initiated vs. Push collection of events, note that I'm only using the Push method.

I have a Win10 Collector and two clients, Win10 & Win7.  All of the machines are in the same domain.

Since I'm using Push, I did not perform any special configuration on the clients.  I did everything via GP.

1. Configured the subscription manager.  Server=http://mycollector.fabrikam.com:5985/wsman/SubscriptionManager/WEC,Refresh=60

2. Allowed remote server management though WinRM.  ALL IP's

3. Enable WinRM to automatically start - which it does on all machines.

I get this on both Clients:

The forwarder is having a problem communicating with subscription manager at address http://mycollector.fabrikam.com:5985/wsman/SubscriptionManager/WEC.  Error code is 2150859027 and Error Message is <f:WSManFault xmlns:f="http://schemas.microsoft.com/wbem/wsman/1/wsmanfault" Code="2150859027" Machine="Win7Ex64.fabrikam.com"><f:Message>The WinRM client sent a request to an HTTP server and got a response saying the requested HTTP URL was not available. This is usually returned by a HTTP server that does not support the WS-Management protocol. </f:Message></f:WSManFault>.

This message appears roughly every 60 seconds in the Win7 log but very seldom in the WIn10 log.

So the clients obviously see the subscription and try to contact the Collector but fail. 

I can ping the server by name and the firewall rule for port 5985 is enabled.

Lastly, I set up an additional Collector on a Server 2012 R2 machine and added it to the subscription GP.  Both machines reported the same error connecting to it.

Not sure what else to try.  Any suggestions are appreciated.

we currently have two DCs a 2012r2 wich I was able to find instructions on upgrading from there to 2016 but I have not been able to find any guidance for the appropriate steps for the 2008r2 server can its FSMO roles transfer to a 2016 server directly or do we need to raise it to 2012r2 then 2016

How can I have a global security group have the same members as a universal group automatically?

$

Hi,

We have Windows 2008 R2 domain. We created a universal group for each department which includes everyone in that department. Recently I need to create PSO Fine-Grained Password policy for a department. When I applied the PSO to the department universal group, I noticed it wouldn't work. After a quick search, I know PSO can only apply to global security group! I ended up to create a department global security group and added all members in the universal group to it. 

Now I have to remember to add a new user to both the department universal group and global group when I create a new user account. If I forget, the PSO will not apply to the new user account. This is too much trouble. I wonder if there is a way to solve this issue like  automatically sync this two groups. I just want to maintain one group and the other one can always keep the same members. Is it possible to approach it?

Need help! 

Thanks in advance!

Problem running Windows Update on Server 2008 R2

I've just taken over responsibility to maintain a Windows Server 2008 R2 that has been maintained by several different administrators.

While logged in as the Domain administrator, I click Windows Update and then Check for Updates, I receive a message saying Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because updates on this computer are controlled by your system administrator.

When I'm logged in as the domain administrator, how do I correct this situation? It appears to be a permissions issue.

Thanks in advance for your help.


Share Problem on SBS2011

I'm working on an SBS 2011 that is in a domain where most PC's in the office were not setup in the domain. They are connected to the share with administrative credentials.

The network is a mixture of about 15 Windows 7 PC's and 5 Macs. As I replace PC's, I join each one to the domain so accessing shares is not a problem. Now, I'm running into a problem where non-domain PC's are suddenly loosing access to the server shares. I haven't made any changes to the shares or share rules.

Any ideas on the best way to resolve this issue?

Windows Terminal Server Licensing Clarification

$

Hi There,

just a quick question regarding User CAL for terminal server. If we are using a user CAL for a physical user can he only log on to the terminal server using his login. What happens when the same physical user logs on to the terminal server using multiple logins? Ex: john smith (counted as physical user with license) - He logs on to the same terminal server as test1, graphic2, test3.

Does the single user CAL cover this?

Thank you
