Error Code: SIP/2.0 486 Busy Here (in debug session) while want to start Live Meeting

I get an error message which all client PC that run live meeting that is "SIP/2.0 486 Busy Here".

I just moved my users from old Front-end server to new Front-end server, no any change as different and then Communicator was working but live meeting wasn`t working. I researched in google but no any resolution and then i decided to start Debugging Session on my edge server and get error message that "SIP/2.0 486 Busy Here" in the debugging log.

I researched again on the internet but no any solution for me. I checked all Front-end and edge architecture and found problematic point in my port number.

I had used different port number for all edge role, e.g: my access edge role was using the port number 444 and web access role was using the port number 447 and i had forgetten to change this port numbers at my new Front-end Server.

I changed port number at my new front-end server as following:

Standard Edition Server --> New Front-End Server --> Right click --> Properties --> Web Conferencing Properties --> Web Conferencing Edge Server and then changed the correct port numbers.

Shortly:

Problem: Error Message that SIP/2.0 486 Busy Here in the debug log on Edge Server
Solution: Changing to correct port number on Front-End Server

Boot from Network with SCCM 2007 for OS Deployment

Installed MDT 2008 and SCCM 2007 R2 and I created a .wim image file for OS deployment via SCCM 2007 R2 but i dont get any progress even at the first step as booting from network.

And i got following error message on client PC

PXE-T01: File not Found
PXE-E3B: TFTP Error - File not Found

I searched many blog and technet but i dont find any resolution for this problem. And then, i started to try everything that all troubleshooting methods, many log files, many tools and at last, i solved it as following:

1. Installed SCCM
2. Isntalled WDS and disabled any response client PC's
3. Installed DHCP
4. Already, boot image files is ready no any action for boot files
5. I created DP for boot image files
6. I created a .wim file on Operationg System Image then distributed any DP.
7. I created a task sequence and then advertised via right clicking
8. And more important point: You create a machine definition on Computer Association that included MAC Address and GUID (you can find this at startup screen or DHCP)

And unbelievable, amazing :) my client pc connected to TFTP and booting my boot.wim file no any problem.

For use program, You basicly install your computer with next next next... and then, start program and then click browse button for open your wanted to extend .vhd file.

Everything is ok at this point but actually your .vhd file is still at old capacity. Following steps is explaining for resolution:

You define your extended .vhd file as secondary disk on any different Virtual PC. Then, Start this VPC, and after started the windows, you start a command promt and write following commands:

1. CMD --> Enter
2. Diskpart --> Enter
3. List Volume
4. Select Volume (Select you want to extend volume number)

Error Message at OCS Mediation Server "The A/V authentication service cannot be contacted"

I have got following error message when i started mediation Server services:

"The A/V authentication service cannot be contacted. Connections that require firewall traversal will not be succesful"

For resolution, i checked all standart says, e.g communication port (5062), internal names of Edge and Front-End, but no any problem for that, like everything is ok! But source of problem is certificates on both edge servers and mediation server. I changed all name in certificates as including all external names and all internal names. And problem solved after restarted edge and mediation server services.
