Connecting the Sequence Operator to the Mapping Output Parameter?

my OWB Client: 10.2.0.2.8
my OWB Repository: 10.2.0.2.0
I need to obtain a sequence number (from the Sequence Operator), then output it
using the Mapping Output Parameter, if possible.
I have tried two things:
1. Connect Sequence Operator nextval variable to the Mapping Output Parameter.
This generates error:
"Table,View Or Sequence reference 'xx_SEQ.NEXTVAL' not allowed in this
context"
2. Join the Sequence Operator nextval variable with a source table, then
connect a port from the dataflow to Mapping Output Parameter.
This generates error:
"Mapping Input Parameter and Mapping Output Parameter are intended to be
executed before and after the data flow of the mapping and cannot accept
inputs from any part of the data flow."
From what I have seen so far, it appears it may not be possible to use the
Sequence Operator along with the Mapping Output Parameter. If Im wrong, please
let me know of an example of how the Sequence Operator and Mapping Output
Parameter can be connected.
Thanks

User -
Look at adding a Post-Mapping Process to your mapping, there you have a choice of built in functions or custom ones that could return a sequence value for you. You may have to create the sequence outside of OWB ...

Resetting the Sequence operator in OWB

I have a Sequence operator for one column in the mapping. It correctly increments by 1 for each row (nextval) . I have done some testing and now I want to reset the next increments. Like I want to start from 1 instead of some 588 like that which is result of my testing.
How to reset the sequence operator so that it starts from 1 again.
Thanks

Hi Tom,
First you should create a store procedure that resets the last_number of a specified sequence w/ parameters sequence_name and start value. Then just call the stored proc from OWB to reset your sequence.
--stored proc ex:
create or replace PROCEDURE reset_sequence (
seq_name IN VARCHAR2, startvalue IN PLS_INTEGER) AS
cval INTEGER;
inc_by VARCHAR2(25);
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SEQUENCE ' ||seq_name||' MINVALUE 0';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT ' ||seq_name ||'.NEXTVAL FROM dual'
INTO cval;
cval := cval - startvalue + 1;
IF cval < 0 THEN
inc_by := ' INCREMENT BY ';
cval:= ABS(cval);
ELSE
inc_by := ' INCREMENT BY -';
END IF;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SEQUENCE ' || seq_name || inc_by ||
cval;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT ' ||seq_name ||'.NEXTVAL FROM dual'
INTO cval;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SEQUENCE ' || seq_name ||
' INCREMENT BY 1';
END reset_sequence;
--calling stored proc ex:
--sequence name is employees_seq; reset value to 1
DECLARE
SEQ_NAME VARCHAR2(200);
STARTVALUE PLS_INTEGER;
BEGIN
SEQ_NAME := 'EMPLOYEES_SEQ';
STARTVALUE := 1;
RESET_SEQUENCE(
SEQ_NAME => SEQ_NAME,
STARTVALUE => STARTVALUE
END;
Hope it works! Cheers!=)

Identifying the Remote Operator on the Managed Device

I just have one question regarding Remote Management. Since we are using an external VeriSign certificate, the remote operator is currently identified as "unknown user" when a managed device is remote controlled. I think this is working as designed because the Remote Operator's name is derived from the certificate generated on the ZCM server. When External CAs are used (i.e. VeriSign), certificates are not generated for the remote operator, therefore the operator is recorded as an "Unknown User". Am I correct ?
I read the following in the ZCM documentation:
B.3 Identifying the Remote Operator on the Managed Device
When a remote operator launches a remote session on a managed device through ZENworks Control Center, a certificate that helps the managed device to identify the remote operator is automatically generated by ZENworks if an internal CA is used. However, if an external CA is used, the remote operator needs to manually provide the certificate that is chained to the deployed external CA and is certified for SSL Client Authentication. For more information on using the external CA, see Use the Following Key Pair for Identification in Section 2.8, Starting Remote Management Operations. Novell Documentation
If a remote operator launches a remote operation on a managed device without providing a certificate, the name of the remote operator is recorded as An Unknown User in the audit logs, the Visible Signal and the Ask User Permission dialog box. To ensure that the remote operator provides the certificate, deselect Allow Connection When Remote Management Console Does Not Have SSL Certificate in the Remote Management policy.
Do you know how the required key pair for identification is generated ? What are the steps ? We need for the remote operator to be identified.

How to change the sequence number in the test packages?

Hello,
I need to change the sequence number in the test packages. Currently I use "move test case." However you can only move one item at a time.
There is another option to make this change?
Best regards,
Elisabete

Hi Elisabete,
Sorry, I've to acknowledge the reply from Fabricius.
That's poor in release 7.0. A former version provided a solution where it was possible to move a testcase even over pages at once. May be SAP changed this functionality because of other problems caused by the former solution.
Therefore I am looking for a business blueprint structure meeting the logical and operational process for little need of changes in sequences. And I create E2E-scenarios / E2E-processes as an additional structure in a project to have an easier approach in the Test Workbench. An other option is to divide test packages into smaller ones.
I hope we can look foreward to a better and more comfortable solution in release 7.1.
Best regards,
Adelbert

Pin the sequence WIP_JOB_NUMBER_S in the DB Buffer Cache

hai,
how u pin the sequence in db_buffer_cache?????
( The job numbers skip to
the next set of 100 when a user exits and then logs in)
for resolving this issue
Pin the sequence WIP_JOB_NUMBER_S in the DB Buffer Cache so it
does not get flushed.
regards
dba

how did you pin it? have you done the following
dbms_shared_pool.keep('WIP_JOB_NUMBER_S','Q').
When you shut down a database normally, either "SHUTDOWN
NORMAL" or "SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE", the database takes care of
making sure all sequences are "in sequence".
If the database experiences instance failure or a "SHUTDOWN
ABORT" statement is issued, you lose any unused cached
sequence values.

Scanner(Warning) : 027: Unable to read the sequence number from the Workstation object.

Hi
We are having trouble storing inventory scans from some workstations.
We have a windows ONLY environment, with middle tier servers. (ZEN65SP1,
W2KSP4).
Some workstations are storing fine. The Storer function is working and we
can see the storer functions for the 'good' workstations in the Inventory
service window.
However some workstations can't store to the inventory db, but DO populate
eDir ZENworks inventory 'minimal information' but show "Scanner(Warning) :
027: Unable to read the sequence number from the Workstation object." in
the Scan Status...
The Inventory service window shows no attempt by these workstations - it's
almost as though the scan file is not arriving (though eDir knows/displays
the scan file name)
How does the workstation access the scandir in Windows only/middle tier
environment? Does the scan xml stream get sent to the MT via http and then
on to the scandir via CIFS?
Any suggestions/explanations welcome!!
Many thanks
David

027: Unable to read the sequence number from the Workstation object

Environment:
NW 6.5 sp4
Zen 6.5 sp1
We had a problem with our inventory server processing .STR files a couple
months ago - had to turn off inv. policies on workstations while we resolved
it. Now it's resolved and we're running inventory again. We have a large
number of workstations reporting this error:
027: Unable to read the sequence number from the Workstation object
They have no data in the DB, although they do have minimal scan info, and
the last scan status date matches that of the sequence number error.
I've seen this sporadically in the past and have been able to resolve it by
initiating a full scan on the individual workstation. However, that does
not seem to be making a difference this time.
Novell's troubleshooting document basically says see if the server's
running, and see if there's data for the workstation in the db. Then call
tech support.
Any other ideas?

The machines I'm troubleshooting have valid formats for their STR names,
but that doesn't necessarily mean they are valid STR sequence numbers.
Does removing the value in the reg key cause the STR file name to be
recreated?

I've verified that none of our images contain the c:\zenworks history
folder, and we run a script that cleans up any zenworks items before
sysprep (i.e. makes sure there's no registration info on the
workstations, etc). Our imaging scripts also clear any ZIS info to
avoid any duplication as well, so I don't think imaging would be causing
this.

Good tip about the hist.ini file, I didn't know about that. It does not
solve the sequence number error, but it does seem to force a full scan
of the system and cause the new scan to be stored in the DB, which was
not happening before.
Thanks!

The deleted operation affects the confirmed yield of the parallel sequence

there is a production order.
the control key of the last operation is PP03,and it's confirmation is : Milestone confirmation.
and the production order has a parallel sequence,a external processing operation.
but i marked the external processing operation deleted.
then i confirm the last operation,and it's sysstatus is CNF
but the parallel sequence operation is not CNF.
WHY?

Dear,
did you delete the operatrion after release or before the release?

How to get the sequence value from the database

Hi
I created one sequence in the database.
Then I want to take the current value or nextvalue of the sequence in a java program.
How can i do this?
can anybody please explain me?
Thank you so much.

Here you go ...
Connection conn = null;
PreparedStatement prepStmt = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
int seqNo = 0;
try {
     conn = dbConn.getConnection(); //manage your connection here
     String strSQL = "SELECT SEQ_NAME.NEXTVAL FROM DUAL";
     prepStmt = conn.prepareStatement(strSQL);
     rs = prepStmt.executeQuery();
     if(rs.next())
          seqNo = rs.getInt(1);
catch (SQLException e)

Is there a way to create a renaming preset where the sequence starts at the number "0" zero?

What I am trying to achieve is the following:
Fro example, I am photographing a handbag and I need to rename the file using a barcode and a barcode scanner.
My sequence of images goes like this:
Image 1: Tag shot
Image 2: Front
Image 3: Back
Image 4: Inside bag
Let's say the barcode once scanned produces a code such as TRE8801AZT16-Z
Right now my current preset is "Custom Text_Image # (1)"
This results with the images being renamed as:
TagShot: TRE8801AST16-Z_1
Front: TRE8801AST16-Z_2
Back: TRE8801AST16-Z_3
Inside bag: TRE8801AST16-Z_4
What I need is the sequence to start at zero so the tag shot is _0 and my images are named like this:
TagShot: TRE8801AST16-Z_0
Front: TRE8801AST16-Z_1
Back: TRE8801AST16-Z_2
Inside bag: TRE8801AST16-Z_3
Is this possible? If yes, how?
Thanks for the help

About as close as you can get is to right-click on a single clip and Make Multiclip Sequence. Hit OK to make an sequence out of the single clip. Open the sequence made and delete the multiclip and edit the clip you want back into the sequence.

What is the correct way to use Version Information from the sequence and from the deployment tool

I seem to be missing something in how the various version numbers are supposed to be used. My end goal is to log and possibly display in the UI the version of the sequence and which installer version was used to inspect a UUT. I have gotten most of the way there using:
How Can I Programmatically Query the Sequence File Version of My TestStand Sequence?
and logging this into the report with a function which contains:
Parameters.UUT.AdditionalData.SetValString("Test Version",1,RunState.SequenceFile.Data.Version),
Parameters.UUT.AdditionalData.SetFlags("",0,PropFlags_IncludeInReport)
The "Deployment Version" in the TestStand Deployment Utility auto incrementing the 3rd position of a version number while the sequence auto increment is working on the 4th.
My first question is are these 2 version numbers in anyway supposed to be related to each other? As it seems to me you would want those 2 reversed, I can make several installers based on sequence version X, making changes to what supporting files are also installed.
If they are not related as I suspect that they are not. How do I programatically grabed the installer version and also log that into the result report?
is there an option to perform a custom deployment build step to log the deployment version before it builds and then reference that log at runtime of the test?

Hi,
The sequence file version and deployment versions are not related.
You can build the installer with whatever version you want using the command line :
