Basic Questions related EHPs for SEM

Hi Guys,
I've some basic questions related to EHPs: -
1. If we don't mean to implement any of the new functionalities does it make any sense to implement EHP? In other words do EHPs also have some general improments other than the functionalities which can be specifically activated?
2. If we just activate a functionality and don't implement/ use it can there be any negative impact?
3. In case of a pure technical upgrade from SEM 4.0 to SEM 6.0 which EHP would be recommended?
4. Is there a quick way to find all relevant notes in EHPn which are related to corrections for EHPn-1?
Thanks in advance,
-SSC

HI,
If you see some of my older posts I have had many issues with certain features of the EHP2 functionality but that doesn't mean I would recommned against it.
BCS 6 EHPs 3 & 4 (BCS 6.03 / 6.04) - enhancement packs worth implementing?
BCS 6 EHP 2 (BCS 6.02) - activation of enhancement pack
My recommendation is to implement the EHPs but not necesarrily activate the functions (in SFW5) unless you need them - this means that you will only have to test once after EHP implementation and will have the ability to activate the other features as and when required (although testing is required after activation of course) whereas it might be difficult to persuade your client/basis team to implement EHP4 later if you don't do it now.
In the features of EHP2 (activate FIN_ACC_GROUP_CLOSE) it states that there is a general performance improvement - although I have yet to experience it! From OSS note 1171344 "The functionality which is available in EHP2 consists of...
... Performance improvements of status management, reporting and initial start-up of consolidation workbench and monitor.
Since activating FIN_ACC_GROUP_CLOSE I have had many OSS notes requiring application but i discovered that when the technical team implemented the EHPs (before i joined this client) they somehow forgot the latest SP (support packs) and didn't upgrade to the current level - so make sure that you get the right SPs too (see the links in Greg's link above) to avoid the many OSS notes.
As for your question - "is there a list of OSS notes to specific to EHP upgrades? - the answer is most definietly "NO" - I already asked OSS in desperation!
however, you can see the OSS notes that i have applied listed in the above link ( BCS 6 EHP 2 (BCS 6.02) - activation of enhancement pack )

Basic questions in SRM for Workflows+need material

Hi All,
I have developed Workflows in SAP R3.I am very new to SRM. I have following questions -
1. What is the use of BADI when we implement Workflow? My understanding till now is to provide all approvers to the
   Shooping Cart.That means for workflows without approval we dont need to BADI to implement.
2. Is there any other concepts more i have to know? Like in R3 Event will be triggered with help of change doc, status mang., LIS exceptions and all through SWEC tx. is it same in R3?
   Sorry to ask very basic questions.
   Can anyone provide me step to step guide to configure SRM workflows and Cookbook for SRM?
   My Email id is [email protected]
   It will be very helpful for me.
   Thanks in advance.
   Ashwani

Hi,
1.All the n step workflows(where approvers are determined dynamically) in SRM can be implemented only using the BADI "BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI".the main purpose of this BADI is to fetch the Approvers/agents for the workflow.In addition to the n step WF,you also have no approval, 1 step and 2 step approval workflow in which the agent assignment can be done directly(no BADI reqd) and this is applicable for all types of business objects i.e. Shopping cart,Bid etc.For more details refer the foll link;
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm40/helpdata/en/17/40a86c773d6c41801d78af1a34b90f/content.htm
2.Work flow concepts are same as in R/3.So techincally you can create your custom workflows in the same way.
Do let me know if you need any further help.
BR,
Disha.
Pls reward points for useful answers.

Basic questions about Mapviewer for OBIEE 11G

Hello All..
I am pretty rookie in OBIEE and I have never worked with Mapviewer before.. I am going some POC right now in my environment and I want to experiment map reports in OBIEE.. My current OBIEE version is 11.1.1.6.5, Oracle DB version is 11.2.0.3.0 64 bit and OS is Linux 86-64 and I see that there are many versions of mapviwers to download from oracle website.
I have read a few articles on Mapviewer integration with OBIEE, but I still have a few questions about using mapviewers at the very basic level:
1. What versions do I download from Oracle website? I see there are many versions of mapviewers. Do I decide the version based on my OBIEE version or DB version?
2. What files do I download from Oracle website? I see there is mapviewer zip files and mapbuilder zip files. Which one do I download and how does installation works?
3. My OBIEE 11G and DB are running on linux environment, but in the Mapviewer download page, I don't see Oracle differentiating the OS environments. Does that mean Mapviewer is only either Unix/Linux or Windows? How do I determine in which environment I should install the files I downloaded?
I know these are very basic questions, perhaps too basic to blog about, that's why I can't find them online..
Please advise here..
Thanks

Basic questions about programing for J9 VM

I need to create a java application to run on a Pocket PC 2003 OS and I'm limited to using IBM's Websphere J9 Virtual Machine. I'm new to using java in this capacity and therefore have lots of questions which I'm guessing are pretty basic. Despite my best efforts, I've found very little to help me online. Below are a couple questions I have that I'm hoping someone can help me with. Even better, if you know of any resources that could help me with these and other questions, I'd love to have them. Thanks in advance.
1. I'm using standard AWT for the GUI but I'm having problems getting frames, dialogs, etc., to come up in anything less then full screen. setSize() and resize() have no effect, even if I extend the frame and override the setMinimumSize, setPreferredSize, setMaximumSize methods. What do I need to do to get a child window to appear in something less than full screen?
2. I'd like to be able to add menu's to the buttom toolbar (with the keyboard) but have no idea how I would add something to it. Can someone point me in the right direction?
3. When my application gets an iconified event I go ahead and call a System.exit() to exit the application. This doesn't kill the java VM though, which continues to run in the background (taking up plenty of memory). If I run my application using the J9w.exe so that it runs without the console, then not only does the VM continue to run, but I have no way to stop it (the running program list can't see it). Since each time I run my application it starts a new VM, it only takes a couple of times before I'm out of memory and have to do a soft reset of the PDA to make things right. Can I kill the VM when I kill my application?
4. I learn best by looking at example code, but have been unable to find any code people are running on J9. I have the GolfScoreTracker installed and running on my PDA, but the jar file contains only the classes. Since it's supposed to be a demo, I had hoped that the source code would be included, is that hoping too much or is the source code available somewhere? In addition, if you know of any applications out there with available source code that are known to run well on a PocketPC J9 environment I'd appreciate the link.

Hi there, I saw your questions, im currently developing a java pocket pc application as well and here's what i go so far:
AWT seem to be hard to use on pocket pc, instead i recommend that you use SWT, which is a technology developed by eclipse. It's already installed on the eclipse plugins, you just need to download the jar and dll files for the pocket pc. They are available at: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/index.php
I assume that you already have the J9 working on your device. So you only need to copy the SWT.jar file and the swt-win32-3064.dll to the folder containing the .class files on your device.
Now, on your java IDE(im using eclipse) Add the SWT.jar library to your project which should be on C:/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.swt.win32_3.0.2/ws/win32/swt.jar or something like taht depending on your eclipse root.
Now you are ready to code some SWT, here is a sample program from Carolyn MacLeod, i modified a few things so it could run on the pocket pc but it's almost the same. Once you coded in eclipse run it, then copy the class file from your desktop to your device(There should be like 4 or 5 classes like sample.class, sample$1.class etc. copy all of them) where you put the jar and dll files(If program does not run you may try to rename the dll file for swt-win32-3050.dll instead of 3064.dll). Now after you have everything set up you need to create the lnk file in order to run the program. On your desktop create a new textfile and write the following on it:
255#"\Archivos de Programa\J9\PPRO10\bin\j9w.exe" "-jcl:PPRO10" "-cp" "\My
Documents\Java\swt.jar" ;\My Documents\Java" sample
Paths depend on your install, and the place where you put your classes and jar file. path for j9w is usually "\Program Files\J9\PPRO10\bin\j9w.exe", and the last word should be the classname.
Currently this form only displays an image on a canvas, click on the browse button and choose a pic and it will display on the canvas. Im trying to connect the form to an oracle database but no success yet on the device.
Hope it helps, if you have any questions about the code or something, and I know the answer, please feel free to ask.

Basic questions regarding OVM for a pair of physical hosts

We have two servers available to try creating a small production-ready (Oracle supported) environment using Oracle VM. This system is for a service that my department is piloting and we're trying to do it without buying more hardware. If the initial pilot goes well then we'll improve / enhance where we need to.
We are not using Oracle VM right now and I have no experience with it, so I am hoping the forum membership can sanity-check me and answer a few questions.
Here is what we have:
* "BigGuy" - Dell R510 / Xeon X5650 / 6 cores with HT / 24 GB RAM
* "LittleGuy" - Dell R310 / Xeon X3450 / 4 cores with HT / 16 GB RAM
* We do not have a SAN, all the storage is on the physical hosts and there is plenty of it (about 1.5 TB each)
On BigGuy, we were thinking about putting:
A guest to host the production database
A guest to host the production web server
On LittleGuy, we were thinking about putting:
A guest to host the standby database
A guest to host a standby web server (this would be an image of the prod web server that we could bring up if we need to do hardware maintenance on BigGuy)
A guest to host an RMAN repository
If we have to fail over to the standy on LittleGuy then we will revert back to the primary db on BigGuy as soon as possible.
The questions:
1. In general, does this seem a reasonable approach given the nature of the project?
2. I'm confused about where we install the Oracle VM Manager. It seems like we actually need a third physical host for the VM manager and its database. However, we don't have a third machine at our disposal, so can we get by with installing it (complete with an SE database) within the Oracle VM Server running on LittleGuy?
3. Since these hosts are dissimilar, my understanding is that Live Migration won't work, but can I still run virtual machines on each physical host and manage them from the Oracle VM Manager running on LittleGuy (assuming the answer to Question 1 is Yes)? If I understand correctly, BigGuy would be in one server pool and LittleGuy would be in another. Is that correct?
Thanks,
-Tom

Tom N wrote:
1. In general, does this seem a reasonable approach given the nature of the project?Possibly. There is no HA or Live Migration without shared storage, so you'd only be getting the benefits of generic virtualization. Also keep in mind that Oracle VM Server only provides access to completely unusued local storage, so don't create one big RAID array on your Dells, as the unused space would be unusable. Rather, create two distinct devices, one for the operating system install (which only requires 10-15GB) and another to store your virtual disk images. Also, as you intend to host database instances, I would also recommend creating physical devices for ASM storage for those instances, for the best possible performance.
2. I'm confused about where we install the Oracle VM Manager. It seems like we actually need a third physical host for the VM manager and its database. However, we don't have a third machine at our disposal, so can we get by with installing it (complete with an SE database) within the Oracle VM Server running on LittleGuy?Not easily with OVM3: there is no Oracle VM Manager template and you need Oracle VM Manager up and running to fully configure your Oracle VM Servers. Some customers have had some success creating a VirtualBox instance with Oracle VM Manager and then migrating that instance to an Oracle VM Server guest, but I haven't found a detailed how-to document on this. You could also run Oracle VM Manager as a guest of an alternatively virtualization platform (if one exists).
3. Since these hosts are dissimilar, my understanding is that Live Migration won't work, but can I still run virtual machines on each physical host and manage them from the Oracle VM Manager running on LittleGuy (assuming the answer to Question 1 is Yes)? If I understand correctly, BigGuy would be in one server pool and LittleGuy would be in another. Is that correct?The lack of shared storage makes live migration impossible anyway, so the dissimilarity between the hosts is just an additional factor that would prevent live migration were shared storage to be made available later. However, you can manage multiple physical hosts and server pools from a single Oracle VM Manager instance, so the second half of your question is correct.

Basic Question related to future purchase of iMac

Sorry for the stupid question but I just want to know if GarageBand is included as part of the software bundle included with purchasing a new iMac (Intel Duo Core). I was looking at a demo unit in the store and the iMac appeared to have it installed but the Apple.com store doesn't list it (unless I missed it).
Edit: Stupid me, should have posted this under the iMac forum. Perhaps one of the moderators can my this post there.

you should make sure you get a free upgrade later.
To date there have been no free upgrades. If you buy a Mac After the new version of iLife has been released and it doesn't come with the latest version, you have been able to get it for $20.
That's the way things have worked, there's no telling what will happen in the future, of course.

Basic question related to the Thread.

HI all,
I have simple question.This is the simple program for creating a Thread.
My question is, when we invoke the start() method hos does the JVM knows to invoke run method?
why not other method / s?
I am new to the Thread progamming. Please explain it.
Thanks,
Rahul.
public class HelloRunnable implements Runnable {
public void run() {
System.out.println("Hello from a thread!");
public static void main(String args[]) {
(new Thread(new HelloRunnable())).start();
}

rahulb1 wrote:

why not other method / s?Because thats what was chosen as the logical method to call.

Basic question related to EKKO and EKPO

Hi experts,
I have invoice document header and line item data in an internal table(From RBKP and RSEG). From RSEG I have PO number(EBELN) and PO line item(EBELP).
I want to find out the corresponding WBS element, costcenter and GL account of the PO number and the PO line item.
Can anybody tell me which tables to select to fetch WBSelement(PS_PSP_PNR), glaccount(SAKNR) and costcenter(KOSTL).
In which table I will find the link between EBELN,EBELP with KOSTL,SAKNR and WBS element?

Basic question about tracking for beginner

Ok, heres the thing. I want to record multiple tracks at seperate times from the same mic in the same input, but when I go to record a second track and put that the input is track one, it will only let me record on all tracks that I have used this input for. Please help, Jeff

Hi J,
I believe is this what you need,
You just record track 1 (see channel strip on left - I/O> input 1)
when you choose track 2 (the I/O is on input 2) press and hold that button that says input 2 and change it to input 1!
(tracks 3 , 5, & 7 must be on input 1 ither)
best regards,
Jorge

Question relating tips for 2 DFF segments within the same group

Hi All,
I have a requirement where in I need to display a tip message for two of the DFF flexfield Segments within the same group. Currently we are displaying a tip for one of the DFF flexfield segment by placing it at the end of the Segment List and creating a normal tip message just below it. The shortfall of the above approach is when I add new segments to the DFF, the tip for the former segment is out of place.
Also, I currently have a requirement to create another tip for another Segment which is part of the same DFF. Could anyone of you please suggest how both the tips for the 2 DFF segments of the same group can be shown on the same page?
Thanks,
Sowmya.K
Edited by: user770244 on Nov 5, 2009 12:54 AM

Hi experts,
I am trying to find some solution that way:
- Maintain field catalog (FBRC008): setting field Segment as "secondary organisational unit" and setting field parter segment as "Secondary partner unit"
- Setting up a the reconciliation display (FBRC003) with the flag "Use Primary and Secondary org units and partner units in hierarchy display"
But when I launch the reconciliation display, the following dump arises :
"ITAB_ILLEGAL_COMPONENT"
In the current ABAP program "CL_FBRC_PRESENTATION==========CP" the internal
table "<LT_TOTAL>" was to be
processed with "SORT".
At the same time, a component "SEGMENT " was dynamically specified as content
of the field "ME->MD_SECONDARY_ORGUNIT_FIELD".
Do you have any explanation for that dump?
Thanks!

Basic question related to Cairngorm.

I have a view in that there is a custom component .View dispatches event that goes through controller to command and to delegate, delegate invokes http service and result comes to command in command I have to remove that particular component and need to add a new component how to do this?
Thanx,
Mahesh

There are many ways of doing it, also depending on the view component you're using. Check out the documentation of the Observer library, section "Reducing View Behaviour" to understand one approach.

Basic questions about Bigdata, NOSQL and Hadoop

Hi,
I've basic questions related to Bigdata. (I've googled it but still wants to confirm with experts)
Please correct me if I am wrong on below.
1) As far as I know big data is collection of unstructured data. Even we can store relational data as well.
2) NOSQL is an Oracle product to handle bigdata (un structured data and relational data as well)
3) Hadoop is the only one frame work which is avilable in market to manage the bigdata.
What are the other database systems we have in the market to manage the bigdata.
Cheers,
Suri

Hi Suri,
1) "Big Data" does not have a crystal clear, black and white definition.
It is generally characterized as being the processing and management of an amount and type of data that makes a specific workload on that data slow and/or expensive.
Most commonly, Big Data involves processing and management of unstructured data of large volume and the typical technology used to store/process it is Hadoop, However, on occasion a NoSQL database will also deal with unstructured data.
Big Data is also seen often in the form of simple, semi-structured data of both large volume and/or large velocity and the typical technology used to store/process it is a NoSQL database. However, on occasion Hadoop will also deal with semi-structured data of large volume.
In some cases, Big Data is seen in the form of highly connected data that will be manipulated by advanced algorithms that will need to touch a lot of the data and the typical technology used to store/process it is a Graph type of NoSQL database.
2) NoSQL is a category of database technologies most often dealing with the issues as outlined in bullet 2 above. The Oracle NoSQL Database is oracle's product in the NoSQL category of database technologies. It does NOT store relational data. When using NoSQL relations between the data must be managed within the application code.
3) Hadoop and NoSQL booth manage Big Data, but different aspects as discussed in (1) above. Hadoop is a batch based, slow processing data technology, but the "slow" is relative because it can process very large amounts of data, so minutes is commonly seen as fast. NoSQL is a near real-time data processing technology and typically deals with Big Data where access times are in the single digit millisecond range.
Hope this helps,

Possibly a very basic question but I have set up a spread sheet in Numbers and have viewed help videos but I can't get it to give me sums for the columns I highlight. Keeps coming up with the figure zero. I have version 09 2.3(554). Can anyone help

Possibly a very basic question but I am going nowhere without a solution. I have set up a spreadsheet in Numbers but it won't give me sums for chosen columns. I have viewed the run through videos and used the formula but nothing happens apart from giving a figure of zero or a red arrow. The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total as I understand from the video that you can drag whatever total is here onto the relevent position on your spreadsheet. I have Numbers 09 version 2.3 (554). Can anyone advise. Thanks.

Hi Sohojools,
To sum a column, use a formula such as this one in Cell A6
Type this in a cell below your data:
=SUM(A2:A4) or whatever range of cells you want to sum. The easy way is to type:
=SUM(
and then drag or shift-click to select the range of cells. Close the formula with a final bracket ")".
The sum icon in the bottom left hand section of the window does not highlight or show any total
To see the sum (and other simple statistics) in the bottom left, select a range of cells. That tells Numbers which cells you are refering to.
The videos are good, but the Numbers'09 User guide, and the Formulas and Functions User Guide are better. Download them from the Help Menu in Numbers.
Regards,
Ian.

Mind answering some basic questions for a few bright HS students?

I am a HS computer science teacher who seeks a professional mentor regarding JDBC. While I have successfully
- installed a MySQL database,
created, queried, updated the database,
- read the Java Tutorial and:
used Connect/J and written a main method to manipulate a
database
created very simple applets to query or update a database with
their run methods.
I have basic questions about how pieces fit together in web application development and how one can best take advantage of OOP when dealing with a database. My motivation are a few very bright post-AP students who have an excellent grasp of OOP and data structures; they are curious to see how Java is used in web applications.
The sample code I have found on the Web has all been small main method examples. I would like to see and discuss a truly OOD application with JDBC, and to discuss how the pieces fit together.
So, aware of our ignorance and of how dangerous a little knowledge can be, and not expecting to go live with an application anytime soon, we seek a very high level understanding of current professional practice (like: "Where does tomcat fit in here?") as well as some direction while we get our hands dirty. (I hope that makes sense.)
If you have time to correspond with us via e-mail, answer some very basic questions, and perhaps take a look at some code as we work through it, we would love to hear from you off-line ([email protected]). We would also appreciate knowing where to look for a good OOD sample application. Thanks.

Complete this tutorial and you will have a much better understanding.
