Remove OEMDRV Drive from Dell Server

I recently installed a Dell Server by using the Lifecycle Controller. This system uses a wizard to help with the installation of the operating system. In this case, I was installing Windows Server 2008 R2 to replace an existing Exchange 2010 server. As part of the installation, an OEMDRV USB drive is created by the Lifecycle Controller that contains the drivers used during OS installation. OS installation went well, but I ran into an issue afterwards. The OEMDRV drive was using E:, which I needed for my Exchange data. When you go into computer management, OEMDRV shows as a removable drive. However, you cannot change the drive letter or eject OEMDRV. By default the Lifecycle controller removes this drive after 18 hours, but I didn't want to wait that long. To force OEMDRV to be removed earlier, restart the server and press F10 to enter the Lifecycle Controller configuration. Then exit the Lifecycle Controller and reboot again. You don't need to make any changes in the configurat...

Virtualization on Windows 7

Windows 7 has a nifty new feature called XP mode that uses Windows Virtual PC in the background. My first surprise is that I had to download the software for this from MS which was about 500GB. However, that was the least of my worries. It turns out that Windows Virtual PC will only run with hardware assisted virtualization. On AMD processor systems this isn't an issue because almost all AMD processors have hardware assisted virtualization. Intel, on the other hand, has been using hardware assisted virtualization as a differentiator between upper and lower end chips for the last several years. Basically trying to get a premium out of it. Many computers with Intel processors do not have hardware assisted virtualization. Unfortunately, my laptop is one of these. Fortunately, even though it is unsupported (like I'd be calling for support) Virtual PC does run on Windows 7. A blog documenting it is here: http://blogs.msdn.com/virtual_pc_guy/archive/2009/08/19/running-virtual-pc-2007...

Resolving an External DNS Record to an Alternate IP Internally

Image
In some cases, you'd like a single externally hosted DNS record to resolve to a different IP internally than externally. For example, you may have an hostname such as webapp.domain.com to a valid external IP when on the Internet but an internal IP when on the internal network. The key here is that you want the same name to resolve to two different addresses depending on whether they are internal or external. Let's also assume that domain.com is hosted externally on Internet accessible DNS servers that are different from your internal DNS servers. For example, domain.com is hosted by GoDaddy or your ISP. So, on GoDaddy, you would have webapp.domain.com resolve to an external IP address such as 1.1.1.1. Now, you can't create domain.com on your internal DNS servers. If you do, you'll need to manually synchronize all external DNS names to your internal DNS server. This can quite the pain to keep track of. We have several clients where the web hosting company is in control o...
