For the sake of monitoring my internet connection I have set up a port mirror on my Dell powerconnect 5548 from the SFP port to a 1Gb port on the switch, connected to my monitoring interface. The SFP interface is the uplink port to my default gateway.
The port mirror is listed as being "active" within the switch interface but tcpdump is not picking anything up on the interface except broadcast traffic.
Any ideas for what could be wrong?
I recently restored the DB portion of my TFS 2010 deployment, currently when clients open old work items they get the error:
error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.
Apparently this is a caching issue and I have tried the following. Browsing to https://hostname/workitemtracking/v3.0/clientservice.asmx and clicking on StampWorkItemCache followed by Invoke.
This is turn generates the error:
Unable to generate a temporary class (result=1). error CS0200: Property or indexer 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Server.WorkItemLinkChange.SourceID' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only error CS0200: Property or indexer 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Server.WorkItemLinkChange.TargetID' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only error CS0200: Property or indexer 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Server.WorkItemLinkChange.LinkType' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only error CS0200: Property or indexer 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Server.WorkItemLinkChange.IsActive' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only error CS0200: Property or indexer 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Server.WorkItemLinkChange.ChangedDate' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only error CS0200: Property or indexer 'Microsoft.TeamFoundation.WorkItemTracking.Server.WorkItemLinkChange.RowVersion' cannot be assigned to -- it is read only
Any ideas?
I have DPM set up to back up my TFS server every 30 minutes, the reason being it's a way better interface than the quirky SQL backup interface.
I also do a full backup nightly using an SQL maintenance job.
My thinking is I would use DPM to restore my databases in case of losing my database and the nightly full backup would be a "just in case" the DPM restore doesn't work.
I was thinking a little harder about this set up today and started to think about the fact that the DPM backup of the individual databases happens at different 30 min windows.. i.e. one happens at 13h30, another at 13h34 etc.
Would this difference in time be a problem when it comes to restoring the TFS server? If I restore the databases and they are from different times, will this create corruption with pointers in one database pointing to missing items in the other database.. do the databases even rely on each other or are they completely interdependant.
Lastly, how would SQL (log) backup cope with this?
