Unable to delete Sharepoint Managed Account

I was trying to delete one of the SharePoint Managed Account , I was received the below error message

“An Object in the sharepoint administrative framework, “SPManagedAccountName=managed-account”, could not be deleted because other objects depend on it. Update all of these dependants to point to null or different  objects and retry this operation. The dependant objects are as follows:”

 

Resolution:

1.       First delete the dependent Service application pool account using the below PowerShell commands

b.      Remove-spserviceapplicationpool –identity “application pool name”    (it will delete the service application pool)

Slipstreaming Patches in SharePoint 2010

I have faced one scenario that have to run the SharePoint 2010 with latest patches but I had 3 different setup files such as SharePoint 2010 setup, SharePoint Service pack 1 setup file, SharePoint latest cumulative update

 It would consume huge time to install each file on the Servers.

Finally I found the concept called slipstreaming the patches and solution steps below

 Run the below commands one by one to create directory and extract the setup files

1.       Mkdir C:\SP2010

2.       Officeserver.exe  /extract:c:\sp2010

3.       officeserver2010sp1-kb2460045-x64-fullfile-en-us.exe /extract:c:\SP2010\Updates

4.       office2010-kb2596505-fulfile-x64-glb.exe /extract:C:\SP2010\Updates

Once you extracted all the files in single setup file (slipstreaming) and now you ready to run the setup file to install SharePoint.
