Changing global name of SES db

Hi,
I installed SES. While trying a simple sqlplus connect to the db, I saw that the global_name of the SES db is set to SES.server_name instead of SES.domain_name. I changed it with the alter database command and I found 2 config files: <ses home>\oc4j\j2ee\OC4J_SEARCH\config\data-sources.xml and <ses home>\search\webapp\config\search.properties. I also changed the listener.ora and restarted everything. After that I could login to the admin page http://server:port/search/admin/control/login.jsp and create a source, do some config etc. When trying to execute a schedule, I got the error EQG-30050: Could not connect to database. In the crawler log file, I could see the connect string was still wrong, using as service_name my old global_name.
So my question is: where can I find the crawler settings or what do I have to modify when the global name of the SES database has changed?
Kind regards,
els

It worked fine after the first install. But the db configuration assistant has set the global_name of the database to SES.<servername> instead of SES.<domainname>, which is the standard in our company.

Global Name change

Hi.
I've to gonfigure a replication management onto two db Oracle
8.1.7 but who installed that configured the same global name.
How can I change it in one of these db without re-installing ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, Enrico.
Use alter database rename global_name to your.global.name
In the 8.1.X versions there is a global_name parameter in the
instance initialization file XXX.ora but its changing has no
effect. I guess, that database reads this parameter once at
first startup and store in the global_name table, so the only
correct way to change global name is "alter database rename... "

What's the difference among "global name", "db_name","instance_name"......?

Hi. Everyone.
I am really confused about the following.
What are the difference among
1. global_name
2. db_name
3. instance_name
4. domain_name
5. SID
6. service_name(tnsnames.ora)
Can anybody explain the difference among them clearly?
I read some documents, but I am really confused.
One more question!!
Can I set or change "global name" in initSID.ora file?(not global_names)
I used the following command on "open-mode", but it seems to be permenant.
After I re-started the databases, I found that global_name was changed.
-->alter database rename global_name to "global_name".
--> shutdown and restart
--> select * from global_name.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards

I have many contacts in address book from a certain company that just changed its name. Is there a way to globally change all the contacts to the new company name all at once?

Although clunky as you say, this sounds like a reasonably efficient way to accomplish what I was seeking.
Address Book has no global find/replace. Bob Grove suggested one possible workaround; however, a grep-capable text editor (eg, TextWrangler) is better than TextEdit if complex strings are involved.
An alternative is Bento (which is designed specifically to interact with the AB database), but it's not free.

Change the name from Portal Favorites to Portal Favourites

Hi,
There is a requirement that where ever in Portal, the name of Portal Favorites should be changed to Portal Favourites.
So when I add something to Portal Favorites in Portal, then there we get Organize Entries in the context menu and opening this it will open a pop-up having name as Favorites.
I searched and come to know that this is coming from a folder under KM Content /userhome/<portal-userid>/Favorites.
If I changes the name Favorites to Favourites then it reflects to that corresponding id, but changing from here for every portal-userid will be very difficult.
Can someone tell how we can change on global basis for every portal user.
Regards,
Deep Nain Kundra

Hi there,
The iView called "Favorites" in Content Provided by SAP > End User Content > Standard Portal Users > iViews > com.sap.km.iviews points to a KM folder which you can find in Content Administration > KM Content > root > Entry Points > Favorites. You can change the name of this folder: with Entry Points > Favorites selected choose Folder > Details and then Settings > Properties, set the name to whatever you like and click Save.
Now this isn't 100% effective but if a user accesses the Organize Entries command from the Favorites context menu, they will now see your custom folder name. A preview of the iView will show the same.
What this doesn't do is change the name of the Entry Point, so a user looking under Documents will still see the heading "Favorites". According to SAP Help this can be changed by creating a custom bundle file, but despite following the steps detailed in [Changing Labels and Symbols for Entry Points|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/36/8b6b4066d9bf49e10000000a1550b0/content.htm] I have not had success with this.

Changing Global Spot with Javascript

Hello, I'm trying to update a swatch (global, spot) that is linked to a path object, say, a rectangle. In Illustrator, if I double-click the swatch, change the CMYK values and click ok, the path object fill colour updates to the new swatch colour. I want to replicate this with script. So far I have written: if (app.documents.length > 0){ var swatches = app.activeDocument.swatches; for(i=0;i<swatches.length;i++){ var currSwatch = swatches[i]; if(currSwatch.name == "Prim1"){ var newColor = new CMYKColor(); newColor.cyan = 35; newColor.magenta = 0; newColor.yellow = 50; newColor.black = 0; currSwatch.color = newColor; } } } Which updates my swatch "Prim1" and changes the colour as it's supposed to. However. The link to the object is lost, and the swatch is no longer global. Basically, it updates the swatch, and not the object (that's bound to it by its original global setup). Am I missing a line that tells my swatch to keep its global property?

Just in case you haven't gotten a reply Try if (app.documents.length > 0){ var swatches = app.activeDocument.spots; for(i=0;i<swatches.length;i++){ var currSwatch = swatches[i]; if(currSwatch.name == "Prim1"){ var newColor = new CMYKColor(); newColor.cyan = 35; newColor.magenta = 0; newColor.yellow = 50; newColor.black = 0; currSwatch.color = newColor; } } } I would like to change the name also - Any ideas? Good Luck Nick

CAN'T Update Server name during login (since I have changed computer name)

I had a working environment of SAP BO 8.8 installation (VM), I made a second copy for a someone who needs to change his server name so we don't collide with each other. So he changed his server name fine and now when we try to change the name during login in SAP BO, we are completely unable to do anything, no company or database shows up and when you try typing server name it won't allow you since it is a drop down, the only availble server name is the old server name.
We went to Service Manager, got a new license key for the hardware key, update fine as well as updating the server name there but when we try login, we are not able and no matter what we do we are not able to change the server name. Please help, it is getting desperate (tried all things possible).
Thanks

In working VM copy, do a global search for the server name in all configuration files in SAP install directory. Then compare with copied copy and try to change appropriate names in all files.
Changing server name is a complex process, it has many references in many configuration files that you may have to touch.
This will be an uphill battle. Goodluck.
Lots of other things you can do, ping by hotname, check hostfile in case vm is also using it, there are two types of vm installs network or self contained (something like that) - so hostname may be getting masked by vm network environment, definitely SAP has few configuration files where the Server name, db name, license server name, port etc are present, even check for firewall settings etc.

WCS 5.2.110 wouldn't let me change AP name

After upgrading the controllers from 4.2.61 to 5.2.157 (with intermediate 4.2.176 upgrade) I was not able to change the name, or any other parameters of a newly joined 1242 LWAPP. There were no error messages, it just didn't work. I finally fixed it by creating global AP username and passwords. This is a new feature to the 5.x series of controller software. Are there any other issues like this I should be aware of, when upgrading from 4.2 to 5.2?

Hello Ankur,
Thanks for the information, I am downloading patch 1 now and hope it resolves the issue. For the information of others, This new patch for FF 5.2 SP 5 was released on 17/07/2008 So happy upgrading.

How can i delete my music from itunes it dont let me also how to change the name of the ipod shuffle it dont let me

i need help please help me on itunes i try to change my name for the ipod shuffle and it dont let me it dont do anything also when i try to delete the music on it it dont show me if i want to delete or not the font is just gray and dont show any opitions also when i go on my iphone it lets me do all the stuff that it dont let me do i connect my iphone and it lets me delete music and change the name but the shuffle doesnt

What happens when you try to change the Shuffle's name from under the Devices section in the left hand pane of iTunes?
Is your iPod set up to manually manage its contents. For more information, see your iPod's User Guide.

I tried to change the name of my device and now I cant sync anything and it says there is a problem with the disk and when I changed the name back it still said the same thing so I restored my ipod (not from itunes but on the ipod itsself)

And now its saying my ipod is corrupt. None of my stuff was erased from itunes it was only erased from my ipod so why am I not able to just sync everything back onto my ipod? why is it doing this now? I think this is ridiculous that just changing one name would do this much damage.

There is a backup plan after doing the Restore. Read this.

I changed the name of my imac to reflect it's new location, but inadvertently, it unchecked the box to allow the administrative user account to administer the machine. I am trying to reinstall with a time machine backup and am unable

I need a little help. I changed the name of my imac to reflect it's new location, but inadvertently, when I saved the change, the system unchecked the "allow this account to administer the computer" so now I can't make any changes.... I tried to reinstall the OS, but it wants me to go online while installing and use my apple id, but this is not my iMAC, so I don't want to use my account. Also, I am working in a building that will not allow me network access until I authenticate, which can't be done unless I open the browser first. So I'm stuck at this point. I can't even restore a time machine backup that I have because it gives the error message that the system encountered an error. Any suggestions?

Changing Step Name in XML Report programmaticaly

I am trying to change the step name programmaticaly in TestStand to reflect in the XML report. The step is executed several times in a loop, and every time the loop runs I want the step to be named differently in the XML report. For example, the names will be something like this < Test1: Signal Name 1>, <Test2: Signal Name 2> ....etc. Any help on this will be appreciated .
Thanks,
Sam

Hi,
The best time to change the name is before you perform the test, then it will get inserted in the ResultList and hence into your report.
I have attached one way of doing this. You can also perform it after the Step you wish to change, in which case you would use the RunState.PreviousStep as a reference.
You could call the API method as part of your code.
Remeber, if you use a PropertyLoader to load Limits, and you have placed this inside the loop, then your Limits file for the Step Name must match the new step name not the old one that you see statically.
This is a TS3.5 example.
Hope this helps

How do I change the name I have called my MacBook Air so I can add 11" and 13" into the title of whose computer this is for more clarity when I set up Time Machine and save to it with both computers? Both are named with "my name and MacBook Air"

I'm still learning the whole Mac thing but these are great machines! I purchased a MacBook Air 13" and then thought I should also get a MacBook Air 11" for travel. When I set it up at the Apple store I told the assistant the exact same name for each machine, i.e., "my name and MacBook Air." What I want to do is go back in and rename both of them adding the 11" and 13" designation to the name so that when I set up Time Machine or whatever else I know exactly which machine is what. I'm sure it is very simple but I cannot seem to figure it out. Help please. Thanks.

Go to System Preferences - Sharing and change the computer name there. You can also, optionally, change the name of your hard drive to further clarify the origin of your backups. Click once on the "Macintosh HD" on your desktop, then click its name to allow you to edit it.
