Resource Monitor shows real load only after the second time opening

I use Resource Monitor a lot, specially for Disk activity to view the online load. This is very useful on Hyper-V hosts, SCCM and file servers to see, what is really happening, "should I wait or not". Latelly, I began to realize that when you open Resource Monitor first time after login, it doesn't actually show you the real load of vhdx disks in Hyper-V, but it displays some unnecassarry file activities behind user profile. After I open RM the second time, then the real content activity starts being displayed.

I see this everywhere. I have 3 different Hyper-V hosts at different customers site.

FSMO roles, Global Catalog

Hello, 

simple questions:

single site, 2 domain controllers (both are DNS, Global Catalog)

1. Why is not recommended  to have enabled Global Catalog on both DC? It is also means the server will use more resources(mostly ram)? And is recommended have enabled at least one Global Catalog on every single site? Or is enough to enable Universal group membership caching 'UGMC' on site with few object? 

2. I've shut down (lab) the primary DC with all FSMO roles. So in site stay alive only one secondary DC with DNS and Global Catalog without FSMO roles... Why can i still create user(object), change password or forsing change password, creating OU etc. on second DC without FSMO roles.... Thats should not be possible without RID, PDC or Schame master roles...

I have an issue after upgrade from Win7 to Win10, I have a SDD drive on my laptop HP 820 G2, upgrade the OS and my secondary SDD drive is "write protected", I follow instructions on Microsoft forum that lead me to this:

I double check my Read only State, after doing the "attributes disk clear readonly"

I did a backup on my files and format the drive using diskpart.... Still giving me same error when I want to copy files about being write protected.

Any ideas ???

IIS 10: The loghttp module in the worker process with id 'm' removed custom log data for 'n' request(s) which was not claimed by the W3C Logging Service

February 21, 2019, 12:45 am

Unfortunately I cannot post links or images until my account is verified... Or something.

Please note, this is a copy/cross-post from forums.iis.net and Server Fault. Please use Google to find them, and I'll update those posts with information from here.

On various IIS 10.0 web servers (build 14393 and 17763 - Windows Server 2016 and Windows Server 2019), we have enabled customFields logging for "to help identify weak TLS usage" (blog post on Microsoft Secure @ cloudblogs).

For a couple of servers, this works and new log files are created, on the majority it doesn't work: log files with customFields are not created and the eventlog shows ID 2309:

"The loghttp module in the worker process with id '9784' removed custom log data for '3' request(s) which was not claimed by the W3C Logging Service."

But as soon as I transfer a website that's not logging customfields on server-A, to a different web server server-B, using msdeploy, the customFields logs are created. Other websites on that last server-B may or may not be logging the customFields...

I created the configuration using PowerShell:

Add-WebConfigurationProperty -pspath 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST' -filter "system.applicationHost/sites/siteDefaults/logFile/customFields" -name "." -value @{logFieldName='crypt-protocol';sourceName='CRYPT_PROTOCOL';sourceType='ServerVariable'}
Add-WebConfigurationProperty -pspath 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST' -filter "system.applicationHost/sites/siteDefaults/logFile/customFields" -name "." -value @{logFieldName='crypt-cipher';sourceName='CRYPT_CIPHER_ALG_ID';sourceType='ServerVariable'}
Add-WebConfigurationProperty -pspath 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST' -filter "system.applicationHost/sites/siteDefaults/logFile/customFields" -name "." -value @{logFieldName='crypt-hash';sourceName='CRYPT_HASH_ALG_ID';sourceType='ServerVariable'}
Add-WebConfigurationProperty -pspath 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST' -filter "system.applicationHost/sites/siteDefaults/logFile/customFields" -name "." -value @{logFieldName='crypt-keyexchange';sourceName='CRYPT_KEYEXCHANGE_ALG_ID';sourceType='ServerVariable'}

As you can see, I added the configuration as a server default.

What am I missing here?

2008 DC Status Unavailable when changing directory server

Hello, while testing/playing with Server 2008, in my two separate test domains. One, a 4 DC native 2008 domain and two, a mixed 2003 R2 / 2008 domain. I noticed whenever I right click on my domain, from one of the roles, and choose change domain controller, and the change Directory Server menu comes up. It also shows my W2K8 DC's status as being Unavailable. My W2K3 DC's all show Online. Why is that? It does not prevent me from managing them or performing any function that i know of. I have the firewall's off thinking it was some kind of SNMP traffic but that didn't change anything.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Hello,


unfortunately we have the following problem with our HPE MSA (connected to two HPE ProLiant DL380p as Hyper-V node) with our HPE ProLiant DL380 Gen8 with one HPE SmartArray 421 controller each:


A logical drive was created using the HPE controller. Disk Partitioning for the Virtual Machine Volume and Disk as a Quorum Disk was done with disk partitioning of Windows 2012 R2 Datacenter and GPT.


I can set the drive to "online" in disk partitioning, but not in Failover Cluster Manager. I am currently receiving the following error messages:

Hi,

I have a Windows Server 2008 R2 with IIS 6.2 with a default website published.

I have a url that is binded to the webserver, and when I access http://www.xyz.com I can reach the default page.

But I have a subfolder that I need to access a website but through url (www.xyz.com/abc/def).

When I go with IP (internal - 192.168.x.x/abc/def or external - 111.111.111.111/abc/def), I can reach the webpage, but when I try http://www.xyz.com/abc/def from outside I get an error that "The requested URL /abc/def/ was not found on this server.".

This is driving me crazy...

What can this be? What o I need to do to fix this dns/url/whatever misconfiguration?

Thanks a lot.

Hi All,

Bit of a newbie here, I'm trying to write a very simple script to add a search provider to IE via the registry. Here's what I have so far:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\SearchScopes"
"DisplayName"="My Search Provider"
"URL"="http://mysearchprovider.com/={searchTerms}"
"OSDFileURL"="http://mysearchprovider.com"
"FaviconURL"="http://mysearchprovider.com/favicon.ico"
pause

The error states that the attributes are not recognized.

I was hoping for some guidance on this, thanks in advance.
