Microsoft ACT 5.6 ACTUpload: ACM database version is incompatible. Logs cannot be processed

After installing ACT 5.6 ,log processing kept failing with following

Event 0

ACTUpload: ACM database version is incompatible. Logs cannot be processed.

I followed this to install and configure ACT

http://www.techforcast.com/2012/04/act-56-setup-step-by-step.html

On the Machine following event appeared everytime it tried to process the logs.

Since i had choose to create DB on separate SQL 2008 R2 SP1 Server and used System Account for Log Processing Service , i needed to add the following permission to system Account of the ACT machine on that DB.

After this is done , move all the files from Failed folder to the root of ACT File Share and restart ACT log Processing Service.
.
Additional tip:

In order to push the Data collection package silently using SCCM, i used the following command

msiexec /i dcp001.msi /qn

Hope this helps.

Group Policy Object did not apply because it failed with error code '0x80070534 No mapping between account names and security IDs was done

One of our servers was losing the Local Admin settings as we control them using GPO (restricted Groups) We were receiving the following event on this particular server : Event ID 4098 Application Event Log The computer 'Administrators (built-in)' preference item in the 'Servers Local Admins {odjd9DBD-22AF-48EA-ADF5-F42ADE4182hst}' Group Policy Object did not apply because it failed with error code '0x80070534 No mapping between account names and security IDs was done.' This error was suppressed. To fix the issue we deleted all the folders from the following location and rebooted the server C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Group Policy\History Hope this helps.

iDRAC 7 Shows no Signal in Virtual Console Preview

Recently i logged on to iDRAC for one of our Dell R720 servers,however somehow the console redirection did not work at all. I kept on seeing No Signal on the Virtual console Preview. I tried Rebooting the server but that did not help. Finally i clicked on Reset iDRAC and this did the trick. It may take around 2 -5 minutes before you can access iDRAC page again. I had to power on the server through iDRAC before anything showed up on console. Hope this Helps.
