[ACS 5.4] Logs access from secondary server

Hi,
I have 2 ACS 5.4 in distributed environment. Everything left to defaults besides policy.
Let assume ACS-A is the primary and ACS-B is the secondary. Regularly, I'd connect to ACS-A to make changes and WATCH LOGs.
Now, let assume ACS-A is down. Obviously, I connect to ACS-B and everything works fine, besides logs. When I click on 'logs center', a blank window opens and nothing happens.
But the URL it tries to open, it's ACS-A.
Now, from what I saw, ACS-A being the primary box is the log collector for a distributed environment, by default. But how I supposed to watch the logs on a secondary server when primary is down?
Thank you.

SQL server Agent Jobs High Avaialability - Crash on server 1 , automatically resumes from Secondary server

Hi All,
1)We have 2 physical Servers, where SSIS is installed (not clustered) . If machine crashes where Jobs running on server 1, then i want to automatically resumes the job from secondary server sql server job agent ?
2)Can i AUTOMATICALLY resume the job from secondary ssis server on crash of my primary ssis server ?
3)Can it resumes from the same point or we have to restart from begining ?

The functionality which you are looking for is not available in sql server as a standout feature.
You need to do this programattically.
You need to put savepoints in your ssis package/jobs where it logs the steps that it has completed and the steps that it has started. Any time the job is restarted it first has to check the logging table and see where it has reached and restart from the
step where it left off. The packages/jobs should have the ability to do so.
You can also set another job, which will always only run on the sql agent start, which particularly chceks for all jobs which would have stopped/cancelled and see if it has completed or has stopped in between. This will make sure that if sql fails over
or there is a restart of the agent all the jobs which were cancelled would be restarted.

This seems to be one of the solutions but as already mentioned by others you have to build this logic - you won't get this functionality out of the box.

MAXDB copy log file from one server to the other server.

Hi All,
I want to copy a log file from one server to the other server , the database is Maxdb and i don't know how to do it. I want to do it through command prompt, (set of commands required) the front end tool which we are using is DBM ( database manager). Please help.
Regards
M.A

Hi,
Basically, the process is of log shipping. Transferring logs from DC to DR system.
For that, you can check HowTo - Standby DB log shipping - MaxDB - SCN Wiki
This is script based. I have not done it but the idea remains the same.

OC4J shuts down after I log off from the server !!!?

Hi,
I have a startup batch file to start OC4J on my customer server. Usually I connect to their server from my office via terminal server (and VPN) and run this batch file as a job via scheduled jobs in WINDOWS to start OC4J. My problem is that the OC4J shuts down as soon as I log off from their server. But it stays running if I disconnect from their server.
This problem happing on a new installed server but on the old one I have not this problem. Probably it should be some parameter setting that I missed.
Would appreciate any help on this.

java -jar oc4j.jar
This is the most basic form. But the above must always be part of the command for launching OC4J.Avi, this is so not true.
One can always starts any standalone java problem by specifying the main class, the class whose main method is the entry point:
java -classpath somePath theMainClass (since some historic time that we should not care anymore.). So it is perfectly ok to
start oc4j 9.0.4 by, after changing to the directory where oc4j.jar lives,
java -cp oc4j.jar com.evermind.server.ApplicationServer or start oc4j 10.1.2 by
java -cp oc4j.jar com.evermind.server.OC4JServer or start oc4j 10.1.3 by
java -classpath oc4j.jar oracle.oc4j.loader.boot.BootStrap Here each oc4j.jar must come from an oc4j installation so that other dependent libraries will be found.
What is nice about "java -jar oc4j.jar" is that it can be used to start any version of oc4j.jar. One does not have to specific the main class, which might change over time as shown above. That is the reason why it is overwhelmingly widely seen. Avi, I would agree if you just meant to recommend that "java -jar oc4j.jar" be used instead of the above.

Mi424wr-gen3I no internet access from secondary subnet / router

All,
I am looking to provide internet access to my internal LAN / WLAN devices on another router. I have configured my second router to connect to the 192.168.1.0/24 network on the mi424wr LAN.
Static routes: 192.168.2.0/24 next hop 192.168.1.254 (secondary router interface connected to m1424wr LAN)
Firewall policy filter: Network Home Inbound and outbound allow access sourced and destined to both subnets.
I have layer 3 conectivity between the routers but I am not able to browse the internet from secondary router 192.168.2.0 network. My default router on the 192.168.2.0/24 is the 192.168.1.1 router.
I tried to modifiy the DNS setting for devices on the 192.168.2.0 net but nothing works. Used 192.168.1.1 (mi424wr interface which the setting for the 192.168.1.0 net devices. Even tried using verizon's DNS server 68.237.161.12 but no internet access. The mi424wr does have a dns server setting which I tried to statically add 192.168.2.x host but that did not work.
So I am not sure if the mi424wr DNS server is not allowing any other subnets beside the 192.168.1.0/24 to access its DNS services or some other policy is needed to be created. My secondary router is not NATing and at a loss.
Tried to research other methods of using my secondary router to connect to internet with the mi424wr-gen3I but nothing seems worth trying. Setting the mi424wr-gen3I to bridge mode would be an option but have not seen any configuration for the REV I router vesion. My last setup worked in bridge mode and STB were functional but VOD was always very choppy. Seem there are some QoS setting the mi424wrI has configure to improve traffic priority for video.
Any assistance appreciated.
Rich

As STX said. All you need to do is to connect an ethernet cable from a lan port of the Verizon router to the wan port of your own router. Your own router needs to be configured with an address on the 192.168.1 subnet, either dhcp or static, yours is you say at 192.168.1.254 as is mine. Then you should have configured the dhcp side of your router with a subnet other than 192.168.1 which apparently you have done. You do not need static routes or anything else for devices on the 192.168.2 subnet to access the internet, other than valid DNS server addresses - did you set valid dns servers addresses in the static ip internet connection on your router? You could set it to 192.168.1.1 and pick up whatever dns the vz router is using or you could set it dns servers of your choice, personally I set mine to opeDNS server addresses.
What kind of router is the second router?
Your description of your setup sound OK and the only difference I see between your setup and mine is that you say your second router is not NATing

Configure ODBC to access a CSV file on Linux for access from BI Server

How to configure an ODBC connection to a CSV file on Linux for access from the BI Server Repository physical layer
I am migrating a working windows OBIEE installation to Linux and can not seem to connect to csv files on Linux (from th BI server also running on the same Linux machine).

[nQSError: 16023] The ODBC function has returned ans error. The database may not be available, or the network may be down.
Please can anybody give me a clue on how to get this working e.g. a working odbc.ini file from your own installation (and/or a tip for the odbc driver choice/configuration)
P.S. I know this is not supported by Oracle but can not imagine, that nobody is using this.

Cannot connect to ag-sql-listener from Secondary Server

Greetings,
I have a Azure VM setup with two SQLs SQL1 and SQL2, they run a High Availability setup with SQL-AG-Listener as the listener name.
My problem is currently is that if I have SQL1 as Primary, when I'm logged into SQL2 I can't use the SQL-AG-Listener as target to get the Primary server. However I can do a connection to SQL1 directly.
On the Primary server I can however use the SQL-AG-Listener and will get the local server as expected.
The SQL-AG-Listener works perfectly from outside the local network of Azure.
===================================
Cannot connect to ag-sql-listener.
===================================
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider:
Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
===================================
I don't know what else I can try and do now. I have run through most of the issue handling as I can, all from Opening all ports to and from both the SQL servers on the domain level. Made sure that named pipes, TCP/IP connections on both SQL servers was enabled.
As I can run towards them from the outside, and can connect to them directly on name from the SQL servers themselves, then I know that they can take remote access.
Any idea on what I might be missing would be welcome.

Yes, I know I had a typo in the above, where the ag-sql-listener was typed wrong.. It was ofcause SQL-AG-Listener.
But it is still a problem. I don't know if there are some DNS things that can be done, as it seems this is a problem from within the same subnet and not from outside.

Data access from Application Server - Seeking Opinion

I am working on a fairly large scale ERP application that is written in Java both on the front end, and middle tier ( using a JBoss application server ).
All of the database access happens in my app server, and when I wanted to get peoples opinions on the best way to extract and pass data to and from the database from the app server, and of course to and from the client.
I am using JDBC to make database calls and extra data from the database. This is of course pretty trivial. And I first started writing POJO that represent tables in my database. I then wrote a faily length method that uses reflection to call the setting methods and pass in the objects returned from the database result set. This of course becomes tricky when you start to join multiple tables together. And often you only need a small subset of columns in a table and don't require an object with all the columns from the table ( some set, and some as null objects ).
So then I decided I was use a combination of ArrayList objects and HashMap's to store the data. If a result set returned multiple rows, it would return an ArrayList of HashMap objects. Each hash map would contain the data for that row, and the hash map keys are the column names.
This seems to work pretty well and resolves the problem of joining multiple tables together and keeping track of which columns get stored in which objects.
Does anyone have a different solution or idea as to how to handle this? And thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

If you had a table that had 40 columns in it and say 1000 rows. And you needed to run a query that returned all 1000 rows, but you only needed two out of the
40 columns. Would it be better to extract those two columns into the HashMap / ArrayList collection I mentioned in my original post? Or would using something like Hibernate and a class that mapped all of the columns in the table be okay?Why not just map the columns you needed in Hibernate? Who said you had to map all 40 and have them be null?
My concern is on efficiency,
and I was wondering if building 1000 objects that each have 40 members that only 2 are populated is the most efficient way of extracting the data.Doesn't sound very efficient.
I will admit, my knowledge of Hibernate is limited at best so I may be missing a component of Hibernate that would allow you to only extract the columns you required, but you are still working with an object that has 38 null value objects for the columns you didn't require.I don't believe you're required to map every column in a table.

How to get log information from database server?

Oracle 9.2 in Unix
we got blocking error in the production database last midnight for 40 min and nothing was being processed during that time which delayed our production night batch process. Then it was gone after 40min. I like to know what was happening during that time in the database. My question is where I can find error in the database server? In bdump? Appreciate any ideas.
Thanks
S.

If you have jobs regularly collect statspack report, then it will be easier to troubleshoot. You can just pull the report from the time period.
A couple of things you can check if there's any storage issue during the time, like some backup or other jobs running taken all OS storage, so Oracle hung because no space to archive logs. Usually this will log errors in alert.log but if bdump destination also full, the error will not be logged.
Check OS activity during the time frame, what's CPU and IO activity. See if you have sar installed and configured
check OS message file.

File Access from DB Server/Unix Mounting

We have an Oracle Database that runs on Unix Box and a cold fusion application/web server runs on a Windows box. We have a data intensive stored procedure that gets data from DB, does lot of massaging and then create bunch of html files with sorting capabilities etc. This process happens upon user request from website (cold fusion/html page calling Oracle stored procedure). After this, the cold fusion server need to get access to these html files to display to the user.
Our Unix DBA's does NOT want to do File Mounting as they think the windows box is not secure. Hence we are exploring other options.
Below are the options we are exploring. But very well open to suggestions...
1. Let cold fusion query the data from Database and let it do the data manipulation/massaging
2. We explored the external tables (based on file) but the files are dynamic and could not find a way to do this
3. FTP transfer from Unix to NT box but there could be time delay and may not be available for immediate display
4. Create a temporary table, let the DB procedure insert data into table. Then Cold fusion will query from there.
Any other suggestions?

Issue regarding folder access from job server?

Hello,
We are using SAP BODS 4.0 sp2 setup. There is a requirement in our project. We are generating a text file as output and we are placing it in folder(particular path) on the job server. We have created user id and given access to the folder to end user.
Since the server is accessible through vpn. Is there any other way of sharing tat folder so that they can access in whatever network they are working.
The server is at Hyderabad and end users at Hyderabad can access through their LAN. But few users are some other places. How to provide access to them or enabling output file accessible to them.
Kindly let me know if any clarifications needed?
Regards,
karthik

Hi,
This is a network related question . You could do many things like creating a shared folder and shared across the network drive or write a .bat script to schedule to copy the file and put it in end user folder. Your network admin would be in a position to guide you better.

BDC-Log Out from Production Server with out error message

Hi all
I have written one BDC for "FWZZ" transaction.
It is wrking fine in dev & qual.
But in prod it is logging out with out any error message.
what might be the reason??
Thaks & Regards
Swathi

Hi Swathi!
There is little you can do. The BDC can only be shortened by avoiding unecessary steps (each return code needs some time) - but most likely you have already a short way through the transaction.
But maybe there are some field exits / user exits / customizing settings, which start slow database actions. As long as in Dev and Qual aren't so much entries, there wasn't a problem, but now in Prod you have a performance problem.
Make a runtime analysis or a SQL-trace to see what's happening during the call transaction. This should give you an idea, where to look for the slow parts.

Unable to access gif files from the server

hi all,
i have successfully signed an applet and it is loading in the client system also. in that applet, i instantiated a jbutton as given below:
JButton jb = new JButton(new ImageIcon("http://192.168.91.154:8080/success/set.gif"));
but the icon din appear and a blank button appears, even when accessed from the server system.
if i give the exact path like c:/blazix/webfiles/success/ set.gif, the icon is coming in the server system but not in other systems. i tried without port no also but in vain. pl solve my problem. what i need is how to
specify the path of the file[any file] which is present in server.
or if i put all the gif files in the jar file, can i access the gif files present in the jar file [set for archive] ? if i can, give me the soln for accessing the gif file present in the jar file, so that i need not access the server to get the gif files.(i.e) how to specify the path of the gif files present in the jar file?
i ve one more doubt. the jni library file shld be in the server, and the client has to access the library in the server. i think the applet loaded in the client ll search for the library in the local m/c only . how to make the applet to search for library in the server??
i feel only by using rmi we can solve this problem. am i correct? if so i feel that an appln or applet running in the server shld access the jni library, and the applet in the client side should communicate with this server appln using rmi to get the data.is it correct? is there
anyother way?
i appreciate your help in this regard. thanks in advance. bye, padmanbhan.

Better information on what you are doing with JNI might help you get an answer.
If you have some server process that needs to use JNI, then I would code a servlet to call, instead of using RMI to ge there.
Depending on your environment, and the target audiences environment, RMI may just cause you a lot of grief. Firewalls etc, get in the way of RMI connections and force security holes to be opened in order to work.
If you use a servlet, then traffic to your server process is done via standard http calls, which will already be enabled, because your app runs in a browser.
If ther data requirements are heavy duty, your server could always send an XML stream to the client, which would allow you to describe complex data to the client.
Running JNI stuff from the client directly means a lot of local infrastructure to run your app. The code you want to run, the JNI library ....
If what you have is really an application, but want the convenience of starting it from a browser, look at Java WebStart. Then you can distribute an application via the browser, and WebStart will worry about the deployment issues for you.
In Summary:
Stay away from RMI from applets if you can help it.
If you really have an App, then try WebStart to manage the distribution issues for you.

ACS 5.4, logging configuration.

Hello.
I'm using ACS 5.4p2 within distributed systems: one primary and one secondary instance.
For now, primary instance is acting as Log Collector server and I can see any AAA audit logs.
When the primary instance fails I can authenticate successfully using the secondary instance.
However, when primary instance comes back, I'm not able to see any audit logs operated by secondary.
Please, can someone help me?
I'm trying different configuration without success!
Thanks.
Regards.
Andrea

Yes, it is strange. I'm thinking I'm missing something on my configuration.
This morning, I'm started with a fresh ACS 5.4 installation, install license, create one AAA client and one user. Then add the secondary instance an wait it to be updated.
Log collector runs on primary and logs AAA audit correctly from primary and secondary instances.
Log recovery is enabled: run every 10 minutes.
When the primary instance is down I can auhenticate on secondary one without any problems.
When the primary instance come back I'm able to see only failed AAA log coming from secondary during the primary fault.
Any ideas?
