TDMS Shell - DB Export from source/sender system taking a VERY long time

We're trying to build a TDMS Receiver system using the TDMS Shell technique. We've run into a situation wherein the initial  DB Export from source/sender system is taking a VERY long time.
We are on ECC 6.0, running on AIX 6.1 and DB UDB v9.7. We're executing the DB export from sapinst, per instructions. Our DB export parallelizes, then the parallel processes one by one whittle away to just one remaining, and there we find out that the export is at that point single-threaded, and exporting table BSIS.
BSIS is an FI transactional data table. We're wondering why is the DB export trying to get BSIS and its contents out??? Isn't the DB export in TDMS Shell technique only supposed to get SAP essential only config and master data, and NOT transactional data?
Our BSIS table is nearly 700 GB in size by itself.  That export has been running for nearly a week now, with no end in site.
What are we doing wrong? We suspect we may have missed something, but really don't think we do. We also suspect that the EXCLUSION table in the TDMS Shell technique may be the KEY to this whole thing. It's supposed to automatically exclude very large tables, but in this case, it most certainly missed out in excluding BSIS for some reason.
Anyway, we're probably going to fire up an OSS Message with SAP Support to help us address this perplexing issue. Just thought we'd throw it out there to the board to see if anyone else somewhere has run into similar circumstances and challenges.  In the meantime, any feedback and/or advice would be dearly appreciated. Cheers,

Hello
Dont be bothered by the other TPL file DDLDB6_LRG.TPL, we are only concerned with DDLDB6.TPl.
Answer following questions to help me analyze the situation -
1) What is the current size of export dump
2) Since when is the exports running
3) What is the size of the source DB? Do you have huge amount of custom developments?
4) Did you try to use table splitting?
5) Do you doubt that there may be other transaction tables (like BSIS) which have been exported completely?
6) Did you update the SAP Kernel of your source system to latest version before starting the Shell package?
7) Were the DB statistics update during the shell or were they already updated before starting Shell?
8) Is your system a distributed system i.e. Central instance and Database instance are on different application servers?

  • Messages are taking a very long time to send.

        Hello, I'm currently having a big problem with messages taking a very long time to actually send. The spinning wheel will stay there for hours. It only happens in one or two skype groups at a time where I can send messages normally in other groups. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

    I have been having this problem for the last 4 releases. I have had some take up to 8 hours to send before. I can usually fix it by signing out then restarting skype. Just restarting skype doesn't work, nor does just signing in again.

  • Premiere Pro CS5 Export taking a very long time

    Hello there.
    I have a project that is taking a very, very long time to export. It's 45 minutes long and usually projects that long only take about 7 hours, whereas this one has been going for 6 hours and says it has 15 hours remaining.
    I'm not sure what information to give. My footage is AVCHD and I'm exporting to H.264 for the web. My project, scratch disks and media are all on a RAID drive and I'm using an iMac 2009.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    David

    No, all I have is the original footage, color corrected, with one music track and a watermark.

  • Ff6 beta is taking a very long time or not loading at all sites from links or bookmarksmarks

    firefox 6 beta auto updated now when I click on links or book marks site either take a very long time to load or do not load at all.When I tried to log into my back acct. it never loaded.

    No clue why the final processes have suddenly started to take so long. Two things I'd try: a) capture from an older tape to see if some problem with the new tape is at fault.  And b) check the health of your RAM and the hard drive.
    The red frame sounds a bit like a glitch we used to have in OnLocation (actually in its predecessor HDV Rack) which was caused by a partial GOP. But that was a product of HDV Rack recording from the live video stream. It turned out that HDV cameras intentionally interrupt the data stream for an instant upon starting to record--specifically to avoid recording a partial GOP to tape. So my gut says that the tape has partial GOPs at the points where you stopped/started recording.

  • Why does exporting HD to a tape take a very long time?

    Not a tech problem, really, just a question: just wondering if anyone in here knows why it takes forever to export an HD movie back to HD videotape? I sometimes like to backup my raw footage tapes and have always done so with SD format but HD takes FOREVER, relatively speaking.
    On my old SD camera, I could import in real time and watch it on the screen as it imported, and then export back out in real time as well.
    Now, obviously HD is a much bigger file format so it's going to naturally take longer and it does, as import usually goes about half speed (I use firewire) but it all gets digitized okay. A full length 60 minute tape takes about 90- 120 minutes to import fully.
    The problem is when I want to export that exact same footage back to a duplicate tape. Last night I did one (and it's still going now) that is taking 14 hours to export back to tape. Granted, the duplication is perfect and gets everything on the tape, but it just takes 6 - 7 times longer to do it than it did on import.
    So here's my question: why would it import in 2 hours and then export in 14?

    Thanks, Andy -- that's exactly what it is. I should have noted in my original post that the videocamera/tape itself wasn't wasn't moving/recording during that long time window, but I was getting a window on the Mac screen that read "exporting to camera" and then below that "Encoding".
    I was wondering why encoding was necessary to export and now that I've Googled the term "conform", I see that it's because of the conform process.
    Just too bad it takes so darned long.
    Thanks for the info.

  • My iPhone 4S is attempting to restore from an iCloud backup.  It's taking a very long time.  Is it still restoring?

    I began this crazy fiasco on Friday (it's now Monday). My phone didn't have enough storage to update to iOS8 via wifi, so I connected to my laptop.  Thankfully I backed up my phone to iCloud & even saved pics manually onto my laptop before beginning the update via iTunes.  My computer (PC, Dell Mini) kept making disconnection sounds (my USB ports are unreliable at times) so I began to think it wasn't going to work with the continuously broken connection (it was displaying a message in iTunes "waiting for iphone").  So I thought, well, if that USB port isn't working & it's already disconnected, I'll just switch the USB port real quick.  BIG MISTAKE.  I then got an error message saying the connection was lost & the update was interrupted.  I clicked "OK" & then I was told that my iPhone would have to be reset to factory setting before it could be updated.  GREAT...  So I let it be restored to factory settings via iTunes.  After that it updated to iOS8.  Once that was complete I began the iCloud backup restore.  It started Friday afternoon & ran for several hours, reloading many of my items.  But then I had to leave work, & a wifi connection.  My phone was away from wifi most of the weekend, but has had the spinning 'loading wheel' next to my "4G" icon in my status bar the whole time.  Several of my Apps say their 'waiting' or 'loading' but they don't appear to be actually loading (hence, they're in the same 'loading' spot they've been in for days).  When I looked online I found this:
    How can I verify that the restore process is underway?
    Go to Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup. When the restore process is underway, the iCloud Backup setting is dimmed and you have the option to tap Stop Restoring.
    But when I look at the Settings > iCloud on my phone, there's no "Storage & Backup."  Instead, where that option should be, is a message at the very bottom of the page that says "Your iCloud account cannot be deleted because your iPhone is being restored."  This is the only indication I have that it's still restoring, but like I said, the apps have not shown improvement in their loading.  My phone has been back on wifi, connected to power source, & locked since 8:45am (it's now 9:45am).
    Is my phone actually restoring??? Or is there a glitch & it's stuck???  Please help!

    Now it's Wednesday (2 days since I originally posted) & my iPhone appears to have finally restored all my apps, but it still says it's restoring from iCloud backup.  If all my apps are restored, what else could it be restoring?  IS it actually restoring anything at this point, or is it still in 'glitch' mode???  I've tried turning it off & back on & it continues to say that it's restoring.

  • Windows 10 Update, system restart taking a very long time

    Hi, I'm having trouble with my laptop, after I've installed the Windows 10 operating system update. After the install finished, my system went into a 'restart', and hasn't actually restarted yet. It's been on the colored screen, with the white circle loading wheel next to the word 'restarting' for about 17 hours now, and I'm not sure if i should force shut down my system or just wait it out. Thanks for the help.

    Hello, Thank you for posting in the HP Support Forum. Well, 17 hours is too much so obviously it has stuck. Unfortunately, there is no other option other than hard restart (using the computers start button).  There seems to be no other option.

  • Outlook 2010: Draft emails taking a very long time to appear when moved from user to user

    Hi all,
    One of our users (user 1) has full access to another's mailbox (user 2). When user 1 creates a draft email and moves it to user 2's draft box it can take a LONG time to appear.
    I understand that a lot of Exchange processes can take up to 24 hours to process - as far as I am aware this is not one of these instances?
    Any advice is appreciated.
    Casio

    So it will finally get transferred to the target mailbox. Does it only happen to draft messages? What about other messages?
    After moving the message, please check on the OWA (Outlook Web App) and see if the message appears in the target mailbox. Also, please make sure you are on a stable network connection while moving the messages between these two mailboxes.

  • Exporting from FCP and using Compressor at the same time?

    Only in FCP 7.

  • Exporting From FCE to IDVD With Chapters How long

    Exporting From FCE to IDVD With Chapters How long will the DVD hold??? if i have an hour and 40 minutes of HD footage all cut together with FCE and has been saved as a movie file, how many hours will IDVD let me burn to it?
    if i run over the allowed amount will it say i need to drop quality, i am editing loads at the moment and dont want to get to the end and it come up with an error message. also will idvd include the chapter markers if i export with them?

    Sure, no problem.
    1. Go to Project > Project Info in iDVD.
    2. Make sure "DVD Type" is set to a single-layer DVD.
    3. Under "Encoding," choose "Best Performance." Is the arrow solidly in the green portion of the quality bar? If so, go ahead and burn your disc.
    4. If not, choose "High Quality." Again, go ahead and burn your disc if the arrow is solidly in the green.
    3. If the arrow still isn't in the green, select Professional Quality. If the arrow's in the green, burn your disc. If not, you'll have to delete some of the menus (scene selection, etc.) or menu content and check again. You should be able to burn up to 2 hours if you don't have a lot of other menu content.

  • Non-self-contained movie huge & takes a very very long time to export

    This is for FCE 4.
    I have a 1.5 hour movie, and when I export it to quicktime (Not quicktime conversion) it takes WAY too long.
    I have "make self-contained movie" unchecked, so I thought creating a reference movie would be very quick. Why is it taking so long and why is the resulting file huge?
    My source files is DV, and only minor editing and effects were used. However the entire movie was cropped & resized. Is that why?

    Ah I think I figured it out.
    I did another test project with the same source DV file, but didn't do ANY editing to it.
    It took 2 minutes to export a 70mb reference mov file from a 7 minute DV sequence.
    Then I cropped & resized the sequence by changing parameters in the "motion" tab.
    Then it took 20 minutes to export a much larger reference mov file from the same 7 minute DV sequence.
    Then I clicked "render all" after selecting every render option in the drop-down menu.
    Then it took less than 1 minute to export a 70mb reference mov file from the same 7 minute DV sequence.
    So I guess I was having problems because I didn't render "everything", because I didn't select "FULL" on the drop-down menu for rendering. I thought only RED segments in the timeline needs to be rendered prior to export, but apparently the "FULL" render must be selected as well so that the entire timeline is nice and purple. (or some shade of blue)
    Also, a cropped and resized video is very large in size (GB) if it is exported as a reference file only without prior rendering. * Can someone else confirm that this is the normal behavior in FCE? *
    Oh well, lesson learned.. This movie is going to take a very long time to export, and result in a very large file. But I can't use it without cropping & resizing it!

  • Report script taking very long time to export in ASO

    Hi All,
    My report script is taking very long time to execute and finally a message appears as timed out.
    I'm working on ASO Cubes and there are 14 dimensions for which i need to export all data for all the dimensions for only one version.
    The data is very huge and the member count in each dimension is also huge, so which is making me difficult to export the data.
    Any suggestions??
    Thanks

    Here is a link that addresses several ways to optimize your report script. I utilize report scripts for Level 0 exports in an ASO environment as well, however the majority of our dimemsions are attribute dimensions.
    These are the most effective solutions we have implemented to improve our exports via report scripts:
    1. Make sure your report script is written in the order of how the Report Extractor retrieves data.
    2. Supressing Zero and Missing Data
    3. We use the LINK command within reports for some dimensions that are really big and pull at Level 0
    4. Using Symmetric reports.
    5. Breakout the exports in multiple reports.
    However, you may also consider some additional solutions outlined in this link:
    1. The MDX optimizing commands
    2. Back end system settings
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/esb_dbag/drpoptim.htm
    I hope this helps. Maybe posting your report script would also help users to provide feedback.
    Thanks

    my mac air died, after i reinstall from dvd drive, when i boot up again, i saw a prohibit sign showing up on the screen, then get to my logon screen.  After logon, it takes very long time to load any application.  pls help

    OK. If you believe that.
    When the disk is starting to die it can be bad for a moment and then be good for a while. If there was no problem while you were checking it of course it shows up good.
    I tell you those are the signs of a disk that is about to die.

  • My os x mavericks got crashed accidentely while installing the windows 8 and I am trying to reinstall using recovery console, but its take very long time and forcing me to download OS X 8 from internet, is there any where can I get offline download of OS.

    Hi, original poster here. I did not realize this would generate more discussion so I never checked back. I still had my warranty, so I took it to the store and got it repaired. The original problem I had was a screen with this icon flashing when I attempted to boot it up:
    When I took it to the store, they told me that my computer was unable to communicate with the hard drive. I had this same problem three times in two months where this screen reappeared. Each time I went back to the store and they said the cause was different, but they were all hardware issues that physically made it impossible to communicate with the hard drive. After the third time, they simply replaced my laptop and I haven't had the same problem.
    So in short: The reason you can't reinstall or move anything when you encounter this screen appears to be because nothing can communicate with the hard drive in the first place. You can't reach the disk or anything on it. So I don't believe it's possible to do anything besides take it to a physical store and have it fixed.

  • Retrieving free/busy information from the server takes very long time

    Hello, we are running Outlook 2010 32-bit in Windows 7 64.bit, and  have encountered a strange problem, whenever we want to book
    a resource (i.e. conference room) from Scheduling assistant, it takes very long time, sometimes even more than a minute to see the utilization of the room, it being stuck at "Updating schedule information. Retrieving free/busy information from the server"
    The interesting thing is that most newly deployed PCs exhibits this same behavior, while older machines with basically the same setup gets the availability information almost immediately.
    It is unclear whether this is a server setting or desktop issue, as all new Windows 7/Outlook machines that are deployed from the WDS-server exhibits the same slow behavior.
    Please advise any troubleshooting steps to investigate the very slow retrieval lookup of free/busy information from the Exchange server.

    Hi,
    Does this issue occur on OWA?
    If no, it means the issue is mainly related to the Outlook client.
