[OzMOSS] MOSS & V-Motion

2008-02-05 Thread Daniel Brown
Hi all,

We currently have a client who has a virtual SharePoint environment.
Virtual Web/Application Server and a virtual SQL Server.

We are seeing, when the web/application server is v-motion, a whole
stack of database connectivity errors appear in the event log, the
SharePoint logs bloat to massive size and owstimer.exe is peaking out.

My initial investigation has revealed that while v-motion is happening,
network connectivity between the web/application server and the SQL
server is lost.

Has anyone encountered this before, as this seems like a common setup
and if so, is there a work around for this (we have currently set the
web/application and SQL server not to v-motion and be static).

Thanks,

[OzMOSS] Employee Activities site template

2008-02-05 Thread Peter Milliner
Hello all,

 

Just wondering if anybody else is using Employees Activity
template(Microsoft) as I coming up with the following error message when
selecting sign up link

in list.

 

'No item exists at http://bsp1/units/hr/staffdevelopment/Workflows/Sign
Up for Activity/Sign Up for
Activity.aspx?ID=73&Source=http://bsp1/units/hr/staffdevelopment/default
.aspx.  It may have been deleted or renamed by another user.'

 

If I view activity and select Workflows - I can start the sign up
workflow  from there but just not from link.

 

Assistance is appreciated

I have seen several issues with MOSS when you virtualize SQL.  It is not

RE: [OzMOSS] MOSS & V-Motion

2008-02-05 Thread Sezai KOMUR
This isn't the first time I have heard bad things about running SQL Server 
virtualised in general. A few people I have met swear that it should be 
avoided, something about the rate at which SQL Server needs to read and write 
from disk.

Does anyone else have any more opinions/comments on this or any online 
references you can provide discussing the problems with running SQL Server in a 
virtualised environment?

Also, what's Microsoft's official guidance for this ?

RE: [OzMOSS] MOSS & V-Motion

2008-02-05 Thread Hodges, Kristen
We do run our staging environments on VMs with no problems as such... that 
said, performance is something less than spectacular.  For that reason we NEVER 
have production VMs.

Hi all,

We currently have a client who has a virtual SharePoint environment. Virtual 
Web/Application Server and a virtual SQL Server.

We are seeing, when the web/application server is v-motion, a whole stack of 
database connectivity errors appear in the event log, the SharePoint logs bloat 
to massive size and owstimer.exe is peaking out.

My initial investigation has revealed that while v-motion is happening, network 
connectivity between the web/application server and the SQL server is lost.

Has anyone encountered this before, as this seems like a common setup and if 
so, is there a work around for this (we have currently set the web/application 
and SQL server not to v-motion and be static).

Thanks,

Mainly networking issues and high proc and IO's that choke a virtual server.  
You need one heck of a virtual environment for a SQL server. Since MOSS makes 
many more calls than the previous version of SharePoint, SQL utilization goes 
up.

Re: [SPAM] RE: [OzMOSS] MOSS & V-Motio

2008-02-05 Thread pculmsee

(put my CIsco hat on for a sec)..  In terms of IO and bottlenecks I did some work on this a few years back when we contractually had to guarantee a minimim media streaming throughput on a gigabit network. 
Once you go beyond 100mbit (and any virtual server infrastructure likely uses several teamed gigabit adapters), the PCI bus kicks in as an IO constraint. But PCI-X specification took care of that as it at the time did 133MB/s or 1064Mb/sec (gigabit speed - and this was 6 years ago so and is faster now).
So once you move past bus speeds, for us, disk IO constraints kicked in at around 5-600mbit/sec. Of course, there are lots of dependencies here, but we were testing on seriously good hardware (for its time) on large compaq raid arrays. If we streamed data from memory, we acheived 992mbit on a gigabit network. If we read from disk it went down to 600-650mbit.
Even based on figures from 6 years ago, 600mbit is plenty to handle a heavy load SQL server for most sites :-)
Now VM or no VM, if the disk infrastructure is on a SAN, we know that PCI bottlenecks are unlikely to become an issue and fibre channel is 2 or 4 gigabit. You could still hit constraints if enough VM's worked hard enough at he same time, but for the most part, it all comes down to the disk infrastucture you have.
I do know of companies that run production VM's because they have all of the same advantages of using VM's for Dev, but they always put their data on a fast, redundant disk infrastructire. They planned things properly by estimating future peak I/O requirements of their VM's and ensured that the VM hardware was sized for those peak loads.
Thus I don't see a problem with SharePoint/SQL on production VM's when properly sized and planned for. In fact I know IBM engineers who swear by this arrangment for Exchange as well (and Microsoft definitely does not support exchange on VM's)

Paul

[OzMOSS] MOSS as a HRIS system

2008-02-05 Thread Jeremy Thake
I've had a few queries about MOSS as an HRIS system. Just wondered if there
were any bolt on products out there by partners yet that leverage MOSS to
provide functions of an HRIS system? Or any bespoke products that have
strong integration with SharePoint?

Thanks,
Jeremy Thake
