Best practice for the test environment  &  DBA plan Activities    Documents

Dears,,
In our company, we made sizing for hardware.
we have Three environments ( Test/Development , Training , Production ).
But, the test environment servers less than Production environment servers.
My question is:
How to make the best practice for the test environment?
( Is there any recommendations from Oracle related to this , any PDF files help me ............ )
Also please , Can I have a detail document regarding the DBA plan activities?
I appreciate your help and advise
Thanks

Follow your build document for the same steps you used to build production.
You should know where all your code is. You can use the deployment manager to export your configurations. Export customized files from MDS. Just follow the process again, and you will have a clean instance not containing production data.
It only takes a lot of time if your client is lacking documentation or if you re not familiar with all the parts of the environment. What's 2-3 hours compared to all the issues you will run into if you copy databases or import/export schemas?

    Hi Kumar,
    In order to have Consigment in SAP u need to have master data such as material master, vendor master and purchase inforecord of consignment type. U have to enter the item category k when u enter PO. The goods receipt post in vendor consignment stock will be non valuated.
    1. The intial steps starts with raising purchase order for the consignment item
    2. The vendor recieves the purchase order.
    3. GR happens for the consignment material.
    4. Stocks are recieved and placed under consignment stock.
    5. When ever we issue to prodn or if we transfer post(using mov 411) from consignment to own stock then liability occurs.
    6. Finally comes the settlement using mrko. You settle the amount for the goods which was consumed during a specific period.

  • Best practice for the Update of SAP GRC CC Rule Set

    Hi GRC experts,

    Which is a best practice for accomplish our goal?
    Many thanks in advance. Best regards,
      Imanol

    Hi Simon and Amir
    My name is Connie and I work at Accenture GRC practice (and a colleague of Imanolu2019s). I have been reading this thread and I would like to ask you a question that is related to this topic. We have a case where a Global Rule Set u201CLogic Systemu201D and we may also require to create a Specific Rule Set. Is there a document (from SAP or from best practices) that indicate the potential impact (regarding risk analysis, system performance, process execution time, etc) caused by implementing both type of rule sets in a production environment? Are there any special considerations to be aware? Have you ever implemented this type of scenario?
    I would really appreciate your help and if you could point me to specific documentation could be of great assistance. Thanks in advance and best regards,

  • Best Practice for the database owner of an SAP database.

    We recently had a user account removed from our SAP system when this person left the agency.  The account was associated with the SAP database (he created the database a couple of years ago). 
    I'd like to change the owner of the database to <domain>\<sid>adm  (ex: XYZ\dv1adm)  as this is the system admin account used on the host server and is a login for the sql server.  I don't want to associate the database with another admin user as that will change over time.
    What is the best practice for database owner for and SAP database?
    Thanks
    Laurie McGinley

    Hi Laura
    I'm not sure if this is best practise or not, but I've always had the SA user as the owner of the database. It just makes it easier for restores to other systems etc.

  • What are the best practices for the RCU's schemas

    Hi,
    I was wondering if there is some best practices about the RCU's schemas created with BIEE.
    I already have discoverer (and application server), so I have a metadata repository for the Application Server. I will upgrade Discoverer 10g to 11, so I will create new schema with RCU in my metada repository (MR) of the Application Server. I'm wondering if I can put the BIEE's RCU schemas in the same database.
    Basically,
    1. is there a standard for the PREFIX ?
    2. If I have multiple components of Fusion in the same Database, I will have multiples PREFIX_MDS schema ? Can they have the same PREFIX ? Or They all need to have a different prefix ?
    For exemple: DISCO_MDS and BIEE_MDS or I can have DEV_MDS and this schema is valid for both Discoverer and BIEE.
    Thank you !

    What are the best practices for exception handling in n-tier applications?
    The application is a fat client based on MVVM pattern with
    .NET framework.
    That would be to catch all exceptions at a single point in the n-tier solution, log it and create user friendly messages displayed to the user. 

  • BEST PRACTICE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF REPORTS CLUSTER

    Hi,
    i've read the noter reports_gueide_to_changed_functionality on OTN.
    On Page 5 ist stated that reports cluster is deprecated.
    Snippet:
    Oracle Application Server High Availability provides the industry’s most
    reliable, resilient, and fault-tolerant application server platform. Oracle
    Reports’ integration with OracleAS High Availability makes sure that your
    enterprise-reporting environment is extremely reliable and fault-tolerant.
    Since using OracleAS High Availability provides a centralized clustering
    mechanism and several cutting-edge features, Oracle Reports clustering is now
    deprecated.
    Please can anyone tell me, what is the best practice to replace reports cluster.
    It's really annoying that the clustering technology is changing in every version of reports!!!
    martin

    hello,
    in reality, reports server "clusters" was more a load balancing solution that a clustering (no shared queue or cache). since it is desirable to have one load-balancing/HA approach for the application server, reports server clustering is deprecated in 10gR2.
    we understand that this frequent change can cause some level of frustration, but it is our strong believe that unifying the HA "attack plan" for all of the app server components will utimatly benefit custoemrs in simpifying their topologies.
    the current best practice is to deploy LBRs (load-balancing routers) with sticky-routing capabilites to distribute requests across middletier nodes in an app-server cluster.
    several custoemrs in high-end environments have already used this kind of configuration to ensure optimal HA for their system.
    thanks,
    philipp

  • Best practice for EBS Testing

    Hello Friends - We are doing EBS Configuration and it includes Search strings also. These changes are applicable to around 40-50 Bank accounts.
    Is it that I should ask Bank to send us test Bank statements for all these accounts.
    Can you pls share Best practices to test EBS set up.
    Thanks

    Hello!
    You don't have to test EBS for each bank account. The best approach to testing is to identify the typical bank statement cases and test them. For instance, if you have bank statements from five banks with several bank accounts in each bank, you need to test the one bank statement for one bank account from each bank. Similarly, if you have different types of bank accounts (e.g. current account, deposit account, transfer account etc.), you will have different operation types in bank statements for these accounts. Therefore, you also have to test bank statement from different account types.
    To sum up, test typical bank statements from each bank and different bank statements from each account type if applicable.
    Hope this will help you!
    Best regards!

  • Best practices for the datapush in Blazeds?

    Hi,
    According to
    this documentation, “You must configure a new name in Domain Name Services (DNS) to host the apps. To help improve security, the domain name should not be a subdomain
    of the domain that hosts the SharePoint sites. For example, if the SharePoint sites are at Contoso.com, consider ContosoApps.com instead of App.Contoso.com as the domain name”.
    More information:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161237(v=office.15)
    For production hosting scenarios, you would still have to create a DNS routing strategy within your intranet and optionally configure your firewall.
    The link below will show how to create and configure a production environment for apps for SharePoint:

  • Any best practices for the iPad mini????

    I am in the beginning stages of designing my mag for the iPad.... now the iPad mini seems to be all the hype and the latest news states that the mini may out sell the larger one.
    So... I know that the dimensions are 1x1 on bumping down to the smaller screen... but what about font sizes? what about the experience? Anyone already ahead of the game?
    I have my own answers to these questions, but any one out there have some best practice advice or links to some articles they find informative...

    I think 18-pt body text is fine for the iPad 2 but too small for the iPad mini. Obviously, it depends on your design and which font you're using, but it seems like a good idea to bump up the font size a couple points to account for the smaller screen.
    For the same reason, be careful with small buttons and small tap areas.
    I've also noticed that for whatever reason, MSOs and scrollable frames in PNG/JPG articles look great on the iPad 2 but look slightly more pixelated on the iPad Mini. It might just be my imagination.
    Make sure that you test your design on the Mini.

  • Best practice for the use of reserved words

    Hi,
    What is the best practice to observe for using reserved words as column names.
    For example if I insisted on using the word comment for a column name by doing the following:
    CREATE TABLE ...
    "COMMENT" VARCHAR2(4000),
    What impact down the track could I expect and what problems should I be aware of when doing something like this?
    Thank You
    Ben

    Hi, Ben,

    For example if I insisted on using the word comment for a column name by doing the following:
    CREATE TABLE ...
    "COMMENT" VARCHAR2(4000),
    What impact down the track could I expect and what problems should I be aware of when doing something like this?Using reserved words as identifiers is asking for trouble. You can expect to get what you ask for.
    Whatever benefits you may get from naming the column COMMENT rather than, say, CMNT or EMP_COMMENT (if the table is called EMP) will be insignificant compared to the extra debugging you will certainly need.

  • Best practice for GWT testing?

    I was wondered what is the best way to test my GWT client logic which calls into my server and processes the results. I don't want to have to have a server running for these tests? That will come under my functional/performance testing. Is there a way to mock a server ?
    Specifically some code like
    String url = "localhost:8080/myApp/login";
    RequestBuilder builder = new RequestBuilder( RequestBuilder.POST,  url );
    builder.sendRequest( "My data String",  new MyResponseHandelr() );How should I test this without there being a service available at the given URL, but instead have a means where by I can send specific data back to the client code under test?

    The unit testing support of GWT does not work for you?
    http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/tutorial/JUnit.html
    If not, running a server might be the only option you have. Perhaps JBoss Arquillian can help you there.
    http://www.jboss.org/arquillian
    Arquillian supports Jetty as a container for example, which boots really fast.
