SMSP 6 - support for Sharepoint/Sharepoint Foundation 2010 SP1

[brobbins23]

Does anyone know if SMSP supports Sharepoint/Sharepoint Foundatoin 2010 SP1?  I would like to update my Sharepoint environment but not sure if I'm going to break anything due to some of the RBS changes that is being made in SP1.

thanks,

Brent

Hi Brent,

SharePoint 2010 Sp1 has a lot of new features including shallow copy. SnapManager for SharePoint 6.0 testing with SharePoint 2010 SP1 is going on. Currently it’s not supported.

Thanks

Hi,

Have you done thorough testing of RBS extending? I have some problems opening extended documents, at least for files over a few megabytes in size. When I retract the extender functionality from the site collection, everything seems to work OK.

I have also noted that the Interoperability Matrix Tool does not list 2010 SP1 as supported. I will continue testing, but would appreciate to know if anybody else is experiencing any issues with RBS in SP1.

Regards,

Inge

Hi Inge,

We are aware of issues with SnapManager for SharePoint 6.0 after upgrading to SharePoint 2010 Sp1

We are working to get the SharePoint 2010 Sp1 patch released and it will be updated in the IMT tool shortly.

Looks like I am getting the same issues with RBS files not opening after SP1 install...I have a PowerPoint file where when I click on it, the splash page for PowerPoint 2010 comes up stalls, file never opens.

Where is the IMT tool that will keep me up-to-date on support of SP1 for SMSP 6.0?

Thanks.

Inge,

Do any files work over a few megs?  I have had any issue with a PowerPoint but all my PDFs and Word Docs are working fine.

thanks,

Brent

In my environment I got the following error during the 1st backup attempt after the SP1 install:

Errors: Some error occurs in the backup raw property.Service application Name:User Profile Service Application 2 (APException: Cannot find method: Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.UserProfileApplication.get_CurrentBDCMA()) , [ExceptionType:RawpropertyException]

Is this one of the known issues?

Hi,

Yes this is a known issue. You will get a patch for SnapManager for SharePoint 6.0 for SharePoint 2010 Sp1. This will be downloaded from the NOW site and the IMT will also be updated by the end of this week tentatively.

Thank you for the update.

Brent,

Sorry for the late reply. I have just now tested Word (docx) and Powerpoint (pptx) files. I also installed the patch released yesterday, but that did not make any difference. As far as I can see, any docx/pptx documet that is extended through RBS, is impossible to open through Sharepoint. However, it can be downloaded locally, and then opened, but that is obviously no solution.

Trying to find out some more about this, I have located the extended file ({guid}.dat) and copied it to my computer, then renamed it to docx/pptx. This file is not possible to open either, or at least it needs repair. As you may know, docx/pptx are actually compressed (ZIP) files. Trying to unzip these locally copied files gives an error. I hope somebody at Netapp can investigate this further.

Regards,

Inge

Soumende,

Is there a patch available concerning the RBS bug with Sharepoint SP1 and SMSP 6.0?  If so, where do I find it?

thanks.
