going to be deploying the Spring 2015 release via solus soon and was looking for documentation on the process of installing and pushing out the upgrade, do capita publish a document on this? i have started to read through the administrators guide for SOLUS 3 is this going to cover it?

we have been running enlightKS for our ECDL and is a bit of a pain for it to work correctly. we use it with IE 10/11 and office 2010 and it works ok apart from having to keep the version of java very up todate. java 8 needed some tweaking (adding the enlight sight to the security allow list turning off update notifications etc, all done with the deployment options within java) deploying the deployment files for java i do by scripting rather than GPP currently as still testing a couple of options. it should have java 8 support as anything less it moans like hell?

the offline media iirc can be set to include drivers for multiple machine types

not familiar with HP but with dell you can add a disk to a raid volume and then you can expand it using disk management so windows makes use of the extra space. looking at your picture the drive is not part of the array where the school data is. also bay 4 looks like its setup as a hotspare currently?
-
on your server are you using a hardware raid setup (so in a dell you would be using the PERC card to manage and create the array) or just have the disk in the server and then using windows to create a software array (in disk management)** EDIT i should read attachments lol

i brought an old canon powershot G2 for doing self takes when fishing as it has an infrared remote trigger & also doing close ups of other bits and bob's. im sure someone recommended as book for understanding exposure and other photograpahic methods? its a bit more bulky than my sony camera which is tiny but alot newer, it feels "better" more solid (canon is 4MP the sony is a daft 14MP)

does the box come up when the user loads the application? i used this link to get me started in using the adobe licensing tools https://blogs.adobe.com/oobe/tag/adobe-provisioning-toolkit-enterprise-edition the tool kit for me was essential in properly licensing CS6 without it i was mucking about with license files and MST to get it into the installer. with this i just rolled out the software and then ran the tool with our license key and the product is licensed

saw an old bullet train on display a couple of years ago was really cool. massive amounts of money invested but then Japanese are obsessed with tech
-
for rooms which i know what is installed i just call msiexec /x "installID" using psexec which is part of PStools
-
for a bit more work i remove the old version on Java before rolling out the new package by remotely running the uninstaller. using psexec and then rolling out the package using AD.
-
using the deployment config files and properties for java seems to keep it under reasonable control (and allows management of a centralized allow list etc). still a pain sometimes
-
havent installed this yet, will be looking at it this week as its been a little while since release no threads on here saying "XYZ is broken"
-
i created a serial file which was applied to my MSI Package, i still have to run the activation script tool after the install to make sure its licensed and doesnt grumble
-
when you run /DLI on the client the key it will show should be the generic KMS client key and not the KMS key of the host server
-
i never bothered with VAMT as the basic command line options works nicely as it is, you dont get the nice GUI tho
-
i have both the policy file and the registry somewhere on the network the regfile contains these values

Bit of an odd issue, recently had a ruckas system put in and in one area we have an issue with an IPAD roaming onto an AP that is further away then the closest AP to it, which is causing lag issues with using an appleTV. is there a way of forcing an device to connect to a specific AP in preference to another.

doing the same thing with GPP annoyingly the test machine appears to be ignoring the config files and recreating the Sun\java\deployment folder in the users app data folder. going on the documentation from Sun if the file's are present in C:\windows\... it will ignore anything else? Java is horrid for deployment at the moment, we use it mainly for ECDL testing and even ECDL are apparently looking into other testing platforms which dont use java.
