  • Windows 10: Part 1
    Windows 10: Part 1 Updated: May 2018 Price: $2.00 A Special Note on Terminology Windows 10 accepts both mouse and touch commands. This means that you could use either mouse clicks or touch gestures interchangeably. Throughout this document, you will read either click, tap, or click/tap. Please note that you can click on anything that says “tap,” and you can tap on anything that says “click.” Click = Tap Double Click = Double Tap Click and Drag = Tap and Drag Right Click = Tap and Hold NOTE: You must have a touchscreen to use touch commands. What is Windows 10? Windows 10 is Microsoft’s latest operating system for home and work computers. An operating system (OS) is a collection of software that enables the user to interact with the computer. Currently, Windows is still the most popular OS on the market for personal or home computers. The Microsoft Account Before we go further, let’s talk about the Microsoft Account. When you first upgrade to Windows 10, or purchase a computer with Windows 10, you will have the opportunity to create a Microsoft ID. NOTE: You do not have to create an ID, but some features require you to create an account. A Microsoft ID allows you to access Internet-connected apps, the Microsoft Store, and Cortana. If these terms are new to you—don’t worry!—we will explain them later. For now, know that as you get more used to the computer, you may need to create a Microsoft account to use additional features in Windows. Lesson 1: Touring Windows 10 The Desktop After you start your computer and sign into Windows, you will see the desktop.

  • Hyper-V Monitoring and Reporting with Veeam Management Pack for System Center
    Hyper-V Monitoring and Reporting with Veeam Management Pack for System Center Mike Resseler Veeam Product Strategy Specialist, MVP, Microsoft Certified IT Professional, MCSA, MCTS, MCP Hyper-V Monitoring and Reporting with Veeam Management Pack for System Center Introduction Running a virtual infrastructure is and always has been a big challenge for IT teams. After initial setup and configuration of your hardware, networking, storage and virtualization layer, you need to maintain, manage and monitor it. The lifecycle of your environment is the part that costs the most and is sometimes ignored when implementing a solution. In an ideal world, you would implement a solution that would run solid for its lifetime and you would not need to manage, monitor or update it. But this ideal world doesn’t exist, and you need to have a good management solution. The Microsoft System Center suite delivers a perfect solution that allows you to maintain, update, manage and monitor your environment. One of the components of System Center is Operations Manager ‒ a management and monitoring framework. Operations Manager is extensible through management packs (MPs), which contain the knowledge, rules, monitors, graphical views, reports and more to manage and monitor your infrastructure. There are many MPs available. In fact, Microsoft provides System Center MPs to manage and monitor Microsoft solutions such as DNS, DHCP, AD, SQL, Exchange and others. Other MPs are from third-party hardware vendors such as IBM, HP, and Dell and allow you to monitor the hardware through Operations Manager. Those MPs are free when you buy hardware from the respective vendors.

  • CHAPTER 12 • Doh! 223 THREE-FINGER SALUTE
    Okay, I’m sure Windows has never crashed on you or caused you any problems; but when (I mean if) you ever do have a Doh! troubleshooting . smash forehead on keyboard to continue problem, it’s your fault. Please step away from the computer. You clearly have no idea what you’re doing. Just kidding! You can sit back down. There’s just nothing good about troubleshooting. We don’t want to do it and feel that we shouldn’t have to anyway. My computer’s supposed to work perfectly—all the time! It’s not as if I did anything to cause this. (Keyboards are supposed to be waterproof, right?) Well, I have only two pieces of advice when it comes to troubleshooting. First, be patient; whatever the problem, you can fix it. Secondly, don’t actually smash your forehead on the keyboard. It doesn’t work. I’ve tried it. I just got a nasty bump and it didn’t fi x a thing. CHAPTER 12 • Doh! 223 THREE-FINGER SALUTE Folks, if you remember only one keyboard shortcut in XP, this is the one, because even- tually you’re gonna need it. This tip is truly for those of you who are new to Windows. Everyone else who’s been using Windows for at least six months has already learned the Windows Ctrl-Alt-Delete three-finger salute. This is not what I’d consider a killer tip; how- ever I just wouldn’t feel that I was doing my job if I didn’t include it.

  • Using ODEON Remotely with Windows Remote Desktop
    Using ODEON remotely with Windows Remote Desktop License The standard licenses for ODEON do not include licensing for remote usage of the ODEON software. As a license option, permission to use the ODEON software remotely can be added to the license – in which case ODEON can run on a Server and be accessed remotely. Please visit the price list to see how much it costs to enable remote desktop for any ODEON license. Multiple clients can access the software on the server, but only one can be logged in at a time and thus be able to operate the ODEON software (input materials, source, receivers etc. and to view results, do measurements and listening to auralisations). Setting up the remote desktop Setting up a server to run remote desktop is a bit tricky, in particular if the server should be well secured. This setup should preferably be handled by an IT department. Once you have a server that allows Windows Remote Desktop, or if you already had it in the first place, then using Odeon remotely should be fairly simple. The requirements involving both the server and client sides are as follows: • The interconnection should be fast enough • Windows Pro required in both the server and client ends The requirements on the server side are as follows: • The internet connection on server side should have a static IP address • The IP address on the server PC must be set to be static • The router (the box that receives the internet connection and redistributes it to your network) must be configured – you or somebody must be allowed to log into the router and set up port forwarding • The server PC should be fast enough to carry out calculations for the desired number of clients – for a low number of clients, the CPU could be an Intel i7 with 4 cores, but for a higher workload, it should be more along the lines of an Intel XEON with, say, 2 x 14 cores.
