Need info about the parameter _FIX_CONTROL in a BW environment

Hi ,
I have done some research about the parameter FIXCONTROL and went through the SAP note 1165319.
We have a task at hand where SAP has recommended a new value to be added to this parameter in a BW production environment.
Now in the above note there are an entire set of values which this parameter can take up.
I have understood to some extent that this has to do with this Fixes if case of any issues.
last month we have upgraded the oracle version of the database from 10.2.0.2 to 10.2.0.4.
Can anyone help me in understanding what this MergeFix is all about?
I need to better understand this concept.
Thank you.
Regards,
Hari Kishan.

Hello,
still not sure if I fully understood your question; but the recommended approach regarding patches is:
1) Apply all the interim patches recommended by SAP. For Oracle 10.2.0.4 these will those from SAP note 1137346. The merge fix from SAP note also 1165319 is mentioneded there.
And by the way, SAP note 1137346 is updated about once a month; new patches may be added, old ones may be removed. SAP recommends to follow accordingly; but if there aren't any problems, you might want to you keep your current state for a longer period.
2) Read all the SAP notes mentioned there. You may have to do additional tasks like setting Oracle parameters, FIXCONTROL or others. The value you have to set now may or may not be mentioned in one of these notes, I can't know.
3) If you encounter some problem, first search in SAP notes, or if necessary open a support call with SAP. You may then have to apply additional patches and set addtional values for FIXCONTROL.
And yes, this way the list of required patches may become specific to each customer, as customer requirements are specific.
But it would be difficult to find the exact list of needed patches in advance.
I think a BW consultant who is familiar with Oracle installations will tell you something similar. One who is very experienced in your scenario might also be able to recommend additional patches in advance.

  • Need info about the integration Process.

    HI ,
    I would like to know about the different components of Integration Process like about the Receiver etc..
    and how do we relate the properties of each component with the container.
    Thanks in advance

    hi Syed
    An integration process is an executable, cross-system process for processing messages. In an integration process you define all the process steps that are to be executed and the parameters relevant for controlling the process.
    You implement integration processes when you want to define, control, and monitor complex integration processes that extend across enterprise and application boundaries. The design and processing of integration processes is also known as cross-component Business Process Management (cross-component BPM, ccBPM).

    You use a correlation to assign messages that belong together to the same process instance. A correlation joins messages that have the same value for one or more XML elements. A correlation is therefore a loose coupling of messages: at design time, it enables you to define which message a receive step must wait for, without knowing the message ID

  • I need answers about the iCloud - Please help

    Hi guys, well I have a few iOS devices, 2 ipads, and an iphone. Well, I got a few questions to ask.
    1. Ok, on my iphone on settings on the icloud bit, I have my iphone back up aswell as the 2 ipads. What will happen if I delete the back up for 1 of the ipads. Like, I don't know whats on the back up. And If I want a new back up for the ipad, how to I create 1?
    2. On the icloud section with all 3 ios devices, my 5gb of storage is full, and each device has a bit of storage used up by it. The iphone - 1.7gb, ipad 1 - 600 mb... And it all adds up to around 5gb. But what I don't understand is, on 1 of the ipads it says I've used up 17gb of storage (not icloud), so why has the icloud only stored 600 mb of it? Shouldn't it store like the whole 5gb? I really don't know... I need all the info about the icloud. And yes I've read all of it on this website but none of it helps.
    3. Since it say the icloud storage is full, how do i get more storage, should I just buy more, or is there another way?
    All I know is, if I have icloud set up on all 3 of my devices, what ever i buy on 1 devices it goes on the other 3.
    And that, i have a back up with all my music n stuff in, just incase something goes wrong. Please help! Thanks!

  • Info about the RFC

    Hi,
    I have to work on RFC FM.  Can any body give me the info about the RFC? especially for Function module?
    Will give Reward points
    regards,Ram

    Hi
    RFC (Remote Function Call) is similar to the general SAP fun module: except that in the attributes you click the radio button: RFC enabled;
    and you will be passing an Import parameter DESTINATION to it.
    Other code and usage will be similar to any fun module;
    Have a look at any fun module in SE37 to understand better about the different components of Fun modules;
    Refer this link:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/22/042518488911d189490000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
    Function Modules doc
    Function Modules;
    Check this matter.
    Function Modules are Global ABAP programs created by SAP for reusable purpose.they have IMPORT,EXPORT and TABLE parameters, and EXCEPTIONS to through when error occurs.
    You can create them from TCode SE37.
    Go through the following doc:
    Function modules are cross-program, reusable procedures that are organized into function groups, and whose functions are implemented between the statements FUNCTION and ENDFUNCTION. Function modules and their interfaces are created in the Function Builder.
    Function Module Interfaces
    The parameter interface of a function module is defined in the Function Builder. It includes the definition of interface parameters and the specification of exceptions that can be triggered by a function module. The Function Builder automatically generates comment lines below the FUNCTION statement in the source code of the function module, which represent the interface of the function module with the following syntax:
    Syntax
    ... [IMPORTING parameters]
    [EXPORTING parameters]
    [CHANGING parameters]
    [TABLES table_parameters]
    [{RAISING|EXCEPTIONS} exc1 exc2 ...]
    The syntax and semantics of IMPORTING, EXPORTING, CHANGING, RAISING, and EXCEPTIONS mainly correspond to the definition of method interfaces with [CLASS-]METHODS. The additional option of defining table parameters using TABLES is obsolete.
    Interface parameters
    The interface parameters are defined on the relevant tab pages in the Function Builder.
    IMPORTING parameters are input parameters. When the function module is called, a suitable actual parameter must be specified for every non-optional input parameter. The content of the actual parameter is passed to the input parameter when the call is made. The content of an input parameter for which 'pass by reference' is defined cannot be changed in the function module.
    EXPORTING parameters are output parameters. When the function module is called, a suitable actual parameter can be specified for every output parameter. The content of an output parameter that is defined for 'pass by value' is transferred to the actual parameter if the function module is completed without errors. An output parameter that is defined for pass by reference is not initialized when the function module is called.
    CHANGING parameters are input and output parameters. When the function module is called, a suitable actual parameter must be specified for every non-optional input or output parameter. When the function module is called, the content of the actual parameter is passed to the input/output parameter, and when the function module is completed, the content of the input/output parameter is passed to the actual parameter.
    TABLES parameters are table parameters. Table parameters are obsolete CHANGING parameters that are typed as standard tables with a header line. If an internal table without a header line or a table body is passed as an actual parameter to a formal parameter of this type, an empty local header line is generated in the function module. If an internal table with a header line is used as an actual parameter, both the table body and the header line are passed to the function module. Pass by value is not possible in formal parameters defined using TABLES. Formal parameters defined with TABLES can be replaced by formal parameters defined with CHANGING. A local work area can be created for the internal table in the function module by using the addition LIKE LINE OF itab of the DATA statement.
    Exceptions
    The exception of a function module are defined on the Exceptions tab page in the Function Builder. Here you can select exception classes to define whether class-based exceptions are declared or non-class-based exception are defined. Class-based exceptions are represented in the above syntax by RAISING, and non-class-based exceptions are represented by EXCEPTIONS.
    The addition RAISING is used to declare class-based exceptions that can be propagated from the function module to the caller. Exceptions in the categories CX_STATIC_CHECK and CX_DYNAMIC_CHECK must be explicitly declared, otherwise a propagation can lead to an interface violation. A violation of the interface leads to the treatable exception CX_SY_NO_HANDLER. Exceptions of the category CX_NO_CHECK are implicitly always declared. The declaration of exceptions of the category CX_STATIC_CHECK is statically checked in the syntax check. For exceptions of the category CX_DYNAMIC_CHECK, the check is not performed until runtime. In a function module in which class-based exceptions are declared with the RAISING addition, the statement CATCH SYSTEM-EXCEPTIONS cannot be used. Instead, the relevant treatable exceptions should be handled in a TRY control structure.
    The addition EXCEPTIONS is used to define a list of non-class-based exceptions that can be triggered in the function module using the statements RAISE or MESSAGE RAISING. Exceptions defined in this way - as with formal parameters - are bound to the function module and cannot be propagated. If an exception of this type is triggered in a function module, and no return value has been assigned to it with the homonymous addition EXCEPTIONS of the CALL FUNCTION statement when the call was made, this leads to a runtime error.
    Note
    For new developments after release 6.10, SAP recommends that you work with class-based exceptions that are independent of the function module.
    RFC is a technology which is used to access a functions (Modules) from
    the remote systems.
    If a function module is set as remote enabled which can be access from
    the remote system via RFC.Eg: U can access the Remote enabled function modules in ur VB,Webdynpro,Java,Visual composer program.
    A function module can be set as remote enabled by SE37->Go to ur FM->click the option Button "remote enabled".
    But Normal function modules can not accessd from the remote system.
    Good Example for RFC enabled function module is : BAPI(Business Application Programming Interface)
    Note: All BAPIs are Remote enabled but not all remote enabled function modules are BAPI.
    CALLING A FUNCTION MODULE:
    1)In U ABAP Editor --> Click "Patter" ---> Selection Option Button "Call Function"
    --> Write the Corresponding FM name --> Hit Enter
    2)The appropriate import ,export Parameters will be displayed in ur editor
    3)Pass the Values Here.
