You didn’t mention about whether you give a host header to your second site or not. I am pretty sure that you can solve the problem by host header. Anyway, I suggest two microsoft web page for you. These articles may help you.

Let me know about the progress.

bur it gives error

The directory C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\80 is already being used by another IIS Web Site. Choose a different root directory for your new Web application.

Since Port in both printscreen show port no 80

Actually we are creating two different IIS sites on port 80 in those two figures (Figure 8 and Figure 12) which will serve for the new applications. This can be done as I explain in the article. The port number is not directly related to the application but IIS site. You shouldn’t get any error here in normal circumstances. Did you do all the steps as I explained througout the series or is there any different configuration that you made? May be you forgot to give host header to the second IIS site. Try to give a header (as I did in Figure 12 – www,mstip.com) and that can do the trick.

I had following above documents try to create portal ready but it seem there is some confusion here

your quote

“To create SSP, I open Central Administration -> Application Management -> Create or configure this farm’s shared services. I click New SSP link. On the opening page, I fill the related fields. Actually, I have to create a new web application by pressing “Create a new Web application” link on this page (Figure 8). I don’t change anything while creating the web application. I write spsearch as the service account ”

this mean web application is created on port 80

then at last

“” From now on, I won’t have a warning message on the main page of Central Administration web site (Figure11). Now it is time to create a new Web Site. For this purpose, I create a new web application first and then I will create a web site collection related with the application. I click on the link “Central Administration -> Application Management -> Create or Extend Web application” and create a new web application (Figure 12). As Figure 13 warns, I run the iisreset /noforce command from command prompt and restart the IIS service.”"

here you saying creat webapplication again on same port 80 ..

this is giving me error port is used .. Also don`t want mention any port no againt my site like http://sharepoint2:1447/

Can you help me

Thanks for all your comments and compliments. I am sure these comments will help anyone that faces such problems. They add great value to the article.

Thank you again and keep support :)

I would like to add some additional info that is important when installing on VMware.

The following issues may potentially come up when the cluster is created and the Cluter Validation tests are run.

It’s an area that causes a lot of frustration for a lot of people.

a. Validate Windows Firewall Configuration test fails.

When (ESX) cloning the 2nd server, the NICs may have the same GUIDs. If that is the case, validation will show a failure with the “Windows Firewall Configuration” (and probably a few other network related issues).

To resolve this, use this PowerShell command to identify the GUIDs.

Get-WmiObject Win32_NetworkAdapter | fl Name,GUID

(this is simply a WMI call -nothing fancy)

If they are the same, then, using Device Manager, uninstall both NICs on one of the servers, reboot that server and retest. Validation should pass the Network tests this time.

b. Validate SCSI-3 Persistent Reservation fails

This is most likely attributed to the fact that both nodes of the Windows Cluster are on the SAME ESX host.

Separating them to different hosts usually resolves this problem (HOWEVER….read on)

Setting a VMWare DRS affinity rule to keep the VMs separate will work, BUT, not if the machines are already on the same host and powered up.

If the rule is set up after the VMs are powered and on the same host and DRS is executed, the rule will fail with this error.

“Virtual Machine is configured to use a device that prevents the operation: Device ‘SCSI controller 1; is a SCSI controller engaged in bus-sharing.”

(to see this message, do a manual Migrate)

To successfully move one of the nodes to another ESX host you will need to power down one of the VMs and then migrated it. After power up the DRS rule will work.

Again, many thanks for the article. It is great to see all the steps detailed out!

This guy here has done another guide and does work for me (not implying that yours doesn’t). I believe it was XP’s HAL that caused the problem for me, this guy has a fix for it in his guide if anyone is interested:

http://mabreen.wordpress.com/2010/04/27/installing-windows-xp-using-windows-deployment-service-wds-and-windows-server-2008-r2-2/

Right now I’m attempting to create a multi language screen during windows OOBE install, wish me luck.

Thanks again

I think the reason could be the architecture difference. The list in Figure 23 lists only the images which are suitable to the target computer’s architecture. If the image is 32-bit base and you try to install the image to an 64-bit machine, it is possible not to see the image on the list.

Here is also a link from microsoft.com web site which can be helpful. You have to check this out:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc754137(WS.10).aspx

By the way, the XP version that I use is a VLK copy.

WDS displays the XP image in the ‘Image Group’.
However, as in Figure 23, the XP image does NOT display.

Any ideas?

Also, ere you using a particular copy of XPsp3 eg OEM etc

Many thanks, great work.

I’m also the one who didn’t care about /usr/ports/UPDATING – just put some scripts in crone to actualize ports db with fetching some files, and from time to time- portupgrade -ayrR…

yeah, then I went to the situation with boiled apache :). Automatization not always is good.

Thanks for your tips!

ethernet0.virtualDev = “e1000″
scsi0.virtualDev = “lsilogic”

Let me know if it helps.

Thanks for your input.

Thank you for your helpful comment. I think you are talking about the inclusion in AIA extension checkbox. I will check and re-test my configuration and correct it if it is necessary.

As you can see your setup wrong;
Figure 5: Identifying the OCSP location

Please correct it

I suppose my next step will probably be the dynamic geographical charts.
I also bookmarked your blog in order to be aware of your relevant studies over the subject.
Or may be you can drop me a line when you go ahead with one.

I also have ideas about GA stats integration at my blog, but so far hadn’t got to playing with that API. Bookmarked your post for future reading up on that.
