PerformancePoint Server 2007

Microsoft fournira une partie du code de
PerformancePoint Server 2007
Contrairement à ce que l’on pouvait penser, l’ensemble
des modules de PerformancePoint Server 2007 ne sera
pas intégré dans SharePoint Server 2010. En effet,
l’équipe de développement des solutions décisionnelles
chez Microsoft a annoncé le 18 juin sur son blog que le
code source et les fichiers projets du module
Planification de PPS 2007 seraient proposés
gratuitement sous le nom de Financial Planning
Accelerator (FPA).

Si FPA est gratuit, il est cependant nécessaire pour
l’obtenir (et redistribuer des projets dérivés) de signer
un accord de licence qui peut être obtenu en envoyant
un mail à fpasupp@microsoft.com.

Plus d’informations sur le blog de l’équipe BI :
http://blogs.msdn.com/bi/archive/2009/06/18/financial-planning-accelerator-announced.aspx

How can you get the Financial Planning Accelerator?

To obtain access to the Financial Planning Accelerator a license agreement between Microsoft and the customer or partner is required. After that agreement is in place, download instructions will be made available. Please e-mail fpasupp@microsoft.com to request the agreement.

How We Did It: BDC Meta Man Web Edition

For today’s guest post, I’d like to introduce Nick Swan and Phill Duffy. Nick founded Lightning Tools with Brett Lonsdale in 2006 and BDC Meta Man was a result of their efforts. Fast forward to 2009 and Phill Duffy is part of the team (Nick Swan, Brett Londsdale, Dmitry Kaloshin, Michael Gamza, Hrayr Diloyan, Ashot Brahamyan, Karen Khumaryan & Hrachya Bekverdyan) that built and launched BDC Meta Man Web Edition. This post gets into the decisions and components they used to build a custom SharePoint solution. Enjoy!

Introduction

BDC Meta Man Web Edition was born from the success of BDC Meta Man and from listening to our users about how they wanted to interact with SharePoint and the Business Data Catalog.

Server Virtualization Validation Program FAQ

Virtualization products executing on processors that support virtualization hardware assists must correctly expose the CPUID information to the virtual instance of Windows.
To support software that may need to determine if it is executing in a virtualized environment, the Server Virtualization Validation Program requires virtualization products executing on processors that support virtualization hardware assists to correctly expose the CPUID information to the virtual instance of Windows or applications.
To support utility or application software that may need to determine if it is executing in a virtualized environment, one of the Server Virtualization Validation Program tests determines if virtualization products correctly expose the CPUID information to the virtual instance of Windows or applications. Software in the virtual instance of Windows can determine if it is running within a virtualized environment by executing the CPUID instruction with an input (EAX register) value of 1. When the CPUID instruction is executed by the software and it checks bit 31 of register ECX, the "hypervisor-present" bit should be set by the virtualization product.
There is no requirement for any further information to be provided in registers and leaves by the virtualization product.
Notes: Product and company names mentioned herein are the trademarks of their respective owners Processor virtualization hardware assist is referred to as 'VT' by Intel and 'Pacifica' by AMD
All SVVP testing must take place on systems Logo'ed for the most recent version of Windows Server. The Windows Server Logo requirements include the following, "Processors in the server support virtualization hardware assists". See SYSFUND-0140 of the Windows Server Logo requirements for details.

SharePoint Disaster Recovery Advisor - SharePointforAll

Disaster Recovery Advisor is a companion tool for Quest Recovery Manager for SharePoint. It guides the you through the process of WSS v3 or MOSS 2007 farm restoration during disaster recovery. DR Advisor analyzes the live SharePoint configuration database, or the configuration database backup. It then creates a detailed checklist of actions required to return the SharePoint farm back to operational state and verifies each components' availability in real time. This allows you to quickly assess where you are in the SharePoint farm disaster recovery process and what servers, databases, or services have yet to be restored. DR Advisor also suggests appropriate psconfig.exe commands to properly re-provision SharePoint to the front-ends as you bring them back, and allows to re-create required SQL logins for SharePoint to work.

Questions and feedback are welcome in the Recovery Manager forum!

Do Less. Get More. Develop on SharePoint.

Did you know that you don’t have to write code to manage web site users in SharePoint?

SharePoint allows for end user site creation and when a user creates a site they can also manage the user permissions on that site. This topic shows how some aspects of user management are handled in SharePoint including how you can audit activities that users do and show different data depending on the role a user belongs to.
