I am trying to execute a stored procedure on a linked MSDE 8.x server by running the following SQL against the parent SQL Server 2000 instance...
DECLARE @RC int
EXECUTE @RC = [LINKED_SERVER_NAME].[LINKED_SERVER_DATABASE].[dbo].[STORED_PROCEDURE_NAME]
GO
...but I get this error message:
Msg 7411, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Server 'LINKED_SERVER_NAME' is not configured for RPC.
Overall, I love the SuperFetch feature in Vista and believe it results in hugely noticeable gains in the launch time and overall "snappiness" of the system. However, sometimes it apparently gets "bored" and attempts to cache huge files in the background that are much too large to fit in available RAM in the first place, such as virtual machine disk files and backup images.
I have searched high and low to no avail for a way to do file exclusions for this reason. Does anybody know if this is possible (or maybe on the wish list for Windows 7)?
I am currently using VMWare Workstation 6.5 to test the Windows 7 RC build 7100, and am particularly interested in evaluating the new "XP Mode" feature. However, since one of the prerequisites is hardware virtualization support, I am afraid this might not be possible under the isolation of a guest OS. Is there a configuration option in VMWare to allow this to work?
We seem to be having a lot of problems related to "forgetting some mundane detail" while managing our Group Policy settings in Active Directory, so I am curious as to whether there are any well-regarded tools available for applying source control style practices to Active Directory configurations.
It seems like there should be a way to quickly and easily run a diff against a known-good configuration to figure out what setting changed (or did not replicate to a remote server) and is thus causing problems.
