About GUI's patch and compliation
Hi,Gurus. I have two questions about GUI's patch and compliation.
1. what 's the difference of compliation and patch?
2. I downloaded the patch of GUI640 which named gui640_30.exe, but there is a gui640_pdb_30.exe. How to
use this pdb file?
You do not need to apply the PDB file. This is usually something you would apply when encountering an error that requires intervention by SAP support.
The only two files you generally update with the GUI are the standard update file (the first one you mention above) and the setup update file.
Hope that helps.

New patches for SAP GUI 6.40 and the Screenreader Extension
Hi,
patch 10 for SAP GUI 6.40 and version 8 of the screenreader extension have been published on service.sap.com and ftp.sap.com.
Best regards,
ChristianHi John,
short update: I talked to the service market place team, and unfortunately the software corner is not a standard SMP site, so the nice features you know from other pages are not available, and won't be in the near future.
I will post news about new patches here, but as mentioned this is not part of the official workflow and may not always happen, for example when I'm on vacation
Best regards,

Urgent: About Comps.xml - Patchset, Patches and Components details.
Hi,
In Comps.xml [in Oracle_Home\Inventory\ContentsXML folder] we have information about Patchsets, Patches and Components. According to my information
I. TL_List: It has a list of all the patchset installed.
But when I looked in Comps.xml TL_List, I found that it contain two nodes
II. one is COMP_NAME and second is PATCHSET NAME.
Can any one tell me which information is correct First one or second one?
nullI don't recall having seen a comps.xml in 8i installations (may be some other configuration can have it). In 8i, it was the .SER files under inventory/contents folder (I guess :-)).

Doubt about Rollup Patches and Family Packs
Hi All,
What is the difference between Rollup patches and family packs?And also applying family packs will increase the codelvel?Please specify the naming convention of both the pacthes also.
Thanks
RajasekarThanks Kashif M &Hussein for your valuable replies.I've read the links. As per the documennt in r12.
Product family release update pack (product family RUP) An aggregation of patches on a given codeline created for all products in specific product family for a specific point release. For example, R12.FIN_PF.A.1.
Release update pack (RUP) A cumulative aggregation of product family release update packs on a given codeline created across Oracle E-Business Suite after the initial release. For example, 12.1.1.
RUP in r12 is similar to family pack(11i) which will change the third digit (12.1.1 to 12.1.2).right?
Product family release update pack(family pack) with new features called rollup patch?
(or)
About rollup patch I read in one apps dba blog
Rollup patces are usually fixes of all issues popped up because of a particular minipack/familypack or maintenance pack. Lets assume you applied a family pack & because of that some issue/bug came into picture or all bugs reported soon after family pack or maintenance pack are fixed and released as Roll Up patch . These are usually denoted as roll up 1 rollup 2 or roll up A roll up B.
So you will see maintenance pack 10 (11.5.10) roll up 1 or roll up2.
How can we identify the roll up level?
Thanks

Hi, my Macbook Pro has slowed down to a crawl on the internet since the airport security patch and OS update about 1 week ago. I am using Firefox 3.6.17 and have tried all versions up to date (but 3.6.17 is the best). Same issues with Safari too. I am using an Airport wireless modem also so should not be any issues with compliance. Local programs seem to run OK... but the internet is slow enough to grow a beard... Do they have a patch for this issue. It only started after the updates. Was blazing fast until that.

Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc & run Repair Disk from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
Select your language.
Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
Select Disk Utility.
Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click First Aid.
Click Repair Disk.
Restart your computer when done.

GUI 620 Patch 66, 710 Patch 5 for ECC 6.0
We are in the process of installing support packages 4 - 12 for ECC 6.0. Obviously, we're going to do this in stages because of the amount of notes each package contains. My question to the forum is regarding issues you may have encountered by running GUI 620 patch 66 for any support pack installation for ECC 6.0.
I'm trying to convince my team that we need to upgrade the GUI to support the new enhancements. Are there any requirements, suggestions, experiences, and/or opinions you can give that would reveal issues with using GUI 620 with ECC 6.0?Hi Rod. You need to read notes, and only you and your company should make a decision about GUI version.
You do not must use 640 or 710 , but this versions are newly and are created by newly Visual Studio from Microsoft. For example the upgrade to 640 are the disputable decision becose 14th of October 2008 end of maintenance for SAP GUI for Windows 6.40.
Read this notes, and make a decision :
Note 147519 - Maintenance strategy / deadlines 'SAP GUI'
Note 929300 - SAP GUI for Windows 6.20: Limited support
Also the latest patch for 620 is 72. Regards. -
SSRS 2008 R2 is extremely slow. The query runs in less than a second in the dataset designer but if you try to view the report it takes over 10 minutes. I have read this is a bug in SSRS 2008 R2. We installed the most recent patches and
service packs. Nothing we've done so far has fixed it and I see that I'm not the only person with this problem. However I don't see any answers either.Hi Kim Sharp,
According to your description that when you view the report it is extremely slow in SSRS 2008 R2 but it is very fast when execute the query in dataset designer, right?
I have tested on my local environment and can‘t reproduce the issue. Obviously, it is the performance issue, rendering performance can be affected by a combination of factors that include hardware, number of concurrent users accessing reports, the amount
of data in a report, design of the report, and output format. If you have parameters in your report which contains many values in the list, the bad performance as you mentioned is an known issue on 2008 R2 and already have the hotfix:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2276203
Any issue after applying the update, I recommend you that submit a feedback at https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/
If you don’t have, you can do some action to improve the performance when designing the report. Because how you create and update reports affects how fast the report renders.
Actually, the Report Server ExecutionLog2 view contains reports performance data. You could make use of below query to see where the report processing time is being spent:
After you determine whether the delay time is in data retrieval, report processing, or report rendering:
use ReportServer
SELECT TOP 10 ReportPath,parameters,
TimeDataRetrieval + TimeProcessing + TimeRendering as [total time],
TimeDataRetrieval, TimeProcessing, TimeRendering,
ByteCount, [RowCount],Source, AdditionalInfo
FROM ExecutionLog2
ORDER BY Timestart DESC
Use below methods to help troubleshoot issues according to the above query result :
Troubleshooting Reports: Report Performance
Besides this, you could also follow these articles for more information about this issue:

Any problem, please feel free to ask

Hi guys!
decided to upgrade install server to SAP GUI720 .
I upgrade new install server to patch level 8.
When i have patch level 0 SAP GUI after installing always create shortcut on users desktop.
after updating (patch level 8) the shortcut no longer creates.
After install hsitory file default creates in C:\
All users don't have permissions on write in partition C:\ .
Because of this SAP history is not saved.
Everybody knows how solve problem with shortcut after install and adjust the path to the *.mdb file ? When the SAP GUI is installing on the workstation, the path to the *.mdb file are written automatically.
ThanksI try install SAP GUI with admin and users rights in both cases shortcut not installed on desktop.
OC Windows XP
In logs 14:18:36 NwSapSetup 1 Return-Code: 0

Have you ever seen a 24+ hour delay on a scheduled task to patch and reboot your server?
Our OS admins set up a schedule so that our SharePoint servers would patch and reboot once a month on the weekend during a scheduled time.
This past weekend, 3 of the 4 SP 2010 servers in the farm patched and rebooted as expected.
One of the servers (this is Windows 2012) was patched - but the reboot didn't occur until over 48 hours later.
I don't see anything in the event logs or the 14 hive logs that indicates the reason for the delay. The OS admins verified that the reboot was scheduled to occur at the scheduled time.
Has anyone else encountered anything like this?My OS Admin has requested I correct one thing in this question.
> It isn’t really a ‘scheduled task’ that is forcing the machine to reboot. WSUS is sending patches to the machine based on registry settings.
>When it is done, the machine is supposed to reboot within 15 min.
> Also, in our case the patches installed around 6pm on the 1<sup>st</sup> and the machine rebooted on the 4<sup>th</sup> at around 9:40 am.
> This means about 62+ hours had passed. -
Patch and administer oracle with different user id other than "oracle" user
Hi Friends,
This is question about oracle on Windows. Can we patch and administer all parts of oracle with differnt user id than one from which we installed?
Example, If we install an oracle from user "oracle" than can we install patches or other admin work including backup and everything with user "a" ,"b"?
Doen't it need to be a same user for pacthing and other critical administration work?
help me understanding this with an example.
Thanks in advance.Its always good to patch Oracle with the same user from which you installed the user. Oracle sets certain permissions or modifies the DCOM settings when you install the Oracle from a certain user which would not be same for other user. So It is always recommended to use the same user for patching.

OS and DB Security patches and updates
Dear Experts,
We are going through SOX audits. Auditor is asking me about applied latest OS and Oracle patches to secure SAP systems from threats and attacks.
I told them that we are running on Solaris 9 with Oracle 9.2.0.5
and our severs are behind CHECKPOINT Firewall, and also we have never faced any security breaches and threats and also not facing any performance and efficiency problems in our system.
However, they still persist me about critical security patches for Solaris and Oracle.
Please tell me should I go for applying security patches of Solaris or Oracle if any. I am very worried about possible problems after applying of those security patches.
Please guide me about this issue and tell me about proven and trusted security patches for Solaris 9 and Oracle 9.2.0.5
Best Regards
Waqas Ahmad> I told them that we are running on Solaris 9 with Oracle 9.2.0.5
First I would like to tell you that your current Oracle version is out of extended support (see SAP on Oracle and the notes the first chapter points to). To get actual (security) patches I would highly recommend upgrading to 10.2.0.4.
> However, they still persist me about critical security patches for Solaris and Oracle.
They do that because most of the "attacks" to server come from internal users, not from external.
> Please guide me about this issue and tell me about proven and trusted security patches for Solaris 9 and Oracle 9.2.0.5
For the operating system I would use pca (Patch Check Advanced) - a free too to download and install patches - works like charm (http://www.par.univie.ac.at/solaris/pca/). It can be configured to only download and install security relevant patches.
For Oracle you should install the latest patchset (for 9.2 it's 9.2.0.8 and all the necessary interim patches) and the critical patch updates. However, those CPUs may conflict with necessary other patches so you can either use CPU or the necessary interim patches.
