Advantages of ACS 5.4 over 5.3

I've inherited a single instance of ACS Server, version 5.3, running in a VM.  I'd like to add one or two more for redundancy, but before doing so, am considering upgrading to 5.4
I see lots of docs explaining the features in 5.4, but it's been difficult to compare to 5.3.  Any practical advise or tips?

New and Changed feature

So far best discussion to read about
CSACS-3415 ACS 5.4 NIC Bonding / Teaming possible
https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2215970
It seems it only applies for Cisco Integrated Management Interface (CIMC)
step 4. Set the NIC mode to your choice for which ports to use to access the CIMC for server management

  • Advantages of BW SD reports over the SIS

    Hello BI experts,
    Would like to present the advantages of BW SD reports over the SD SIS reports.
    1) Please provide me three main advantages and benefits to clients implementing BW SD reports over the SIS reports.
    2) Are there any reports in the SIS system which are limited and BW has an advantage over them ?
    3) What are the general information for hte SIS reports.
    4) Any idea where I can find the SIS reports.
    Your feedback appreciated.
    Regards,
    BWer

    Hi.......
    SIS is a part of Logistics information system (LIS). SIS reports use the following characteristics:
    Customer
    Material
    Sales org.
    Shipping point
    Sales Employee
    Sales office
    There are number of SIS std reports. But as you can see they concerned mainly sales and distribution area. They are build on LIS structures. However, you can create custom structures and build non-std reports.
    BW SD reports may be build on data provided by these old LIS structures (practically the same reports as in SIS). But LO cockpit provide new data sources with more information. So, std BW SD-related reports give more information and more flexible.
    Additionally, to this SD reports we can add CRM reports.
    And finally, BW flexibility allows us not only to get data from sales info, but also to join it with data from the other application areas, for example with materials management or controlling.
    Hope this helps........

  • Advantage of using SAP product over third party products

    Hi All,
    I want to know whether there is any advantage of creating SAP product over the third party products in SLD.And if we want to remove Product at later stage can we do that ?
    Thanks,
    Amit

    Hi Amit,
    Are you talking about creating an SAP product under SLD? For client developements it is suggested to create only 3rd party products in SLD for developing the interfaces.

  • Can anyone explain the advantage of iPod vs iPad over Kobo Vox for reading iBooks?

    Can anyone explain the advantage of iPod vs iPad over Kobo Vox for reading iBooks?

    Thank you Alan and  know you are right. I really can do all I need with my netbook and ereader and do not need the ipad. I think I just wanted something new and felt I may enjoy using it a lttle more than the netook. But it would be a waste just to buy one when I donlt acutally need it  And, donl't think it is worth the extra money for me the get the 4g wireless capability since I doubt I would really need it often.
    I may treat myself to the Ipad for the color, touchpad and fun to use but it is very expensive considering how little it will do for me no more than the things I want it for. It woudl be and expensive luxuray, I can do without. I actually  need t learn how to use more of the function avaiable first.  Maybe I should take up playing games and learning to take digital pictures so I can at least load them. If I could learn to do that and take a decent picture, I could start selling back all the "stuff" I have purchased on ebay. haha - I do have a nice doll collection, I would like to sell. I just do not have room for anything else. That was the primary purpose for the Kindle Ereader I bought and enjoy so much,
    But, I will hold onto the thought for a while and see how it goes and what other comments I get, If I think I cannot live without it, then I will have to rethink which one to buy, I coud get the 32 g if I did not have to pay for the 4g wireless. And, if I knew I could get help to teach me how to use and enjoy all the functions, I would give it more serious consideration. My granddaugther got one for Christmas and that was what got me interested in it. I love the size of the screen and it had good color and was fast. She even had an application where she could write her notes and it would convert into typed words. That was a neat feature, If you could print it?
    But thanks again for your comments and I will check later to see I get any other feedback.

  • Advantages and disadvantages of SOAP over Http

    Hi!
    Can any one explain about advantages and disadvantages of SOAP over HTTP.
    Thanks
    Sreenath

    Hi,
    Yes you can use RMI to communicate to your soa suite server allthough i could not get it to work from weblogic 10.3, there is a conflict with certain other libraries. From any other 10.1.3 oracle application server there should not be any problem. The biggest advantage of RMI over SOAP is performance. The soap client also generates lots of logging which can not be disabled, ... i already logged a bug on that. The advantage of SOAP over RMI is its underlying HTTP protocol which is, in some cases, the only protocol allowed by network engineers to pass through firewalls.
    Kind Regards,

  • What the advantages of having an BAPI over Other data migrations

    What the advantages of having an BAPI over Other data migrations

    Th advantages of BAPI
    1. Simple to use (its just an FM)
    2. Not cumbersome like bdc
    where we have to record each and every screen
    sequence.
    3. SAP guarantees the consistency
    of bapi in future releases.
    One of the big plusses for BAPIs is that the interface and function are not supposed to change. This is a big plus when you do upgrades or hot packs because the transaction can change (format, required inputs etc) which means you then need to update the call transaction.
    Some of the BAPIs are better documented and easier to use than others.
    You usually need to perform the BAPI that actually does the COMMIT after you call your BAPI.
    The Program coding for calling a BAPI is usually cleaner than setting up the screen flow etc for the Call Transaction.
    You don't need to worry about special data circumstances interrupting the normal data flow of the screens and causing errors because of that.
    BAPIs probably have better performance since they don't do the screen flow processing.
    In general if the BAPI exists for the transaction you want to perform and you can figure out how to use it the BAPI is probably the best way to go.
    This is just from my experience working with both BAPI and Call Transaction. I have had some very good successes with BAPIs, but very occasionally found that I could not get the BAPI to perform the update I needed.
    Refer the transaction BAPI for detail information.
    You can also refer to below links:
    http://www.sapgenie.com/abap/bapi/example.htm
    Basic learning guide:
    http://searchsap.techtarget.com/originalContent/0,289142,sid21_gci948835,00.html
    BAPI intro:
    http://www.sappoint.com/abap/bapiintro.pdf
    Overview:
    http://www.planetsap.com/Bapi_main_page.htm
    Also have a look at the following link :
    http://www.planetsap.com/LIST_ALL_BAPIs.htm
    Go through the following Document
    Bapi to create customer master
    BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA
    BAPI_CUSTOMER_CREATEFROMDATA1
    Or you can use FM SD_CUSTOMER_MAINTAIN_ALL
    what is BAPI?
    BAPI stands for Business API(Application Program Interface).
    A BAPI is remotely enabled function module
    ie it can be invoked from remote programs like standalone JAVA programs, web interface etc..
    You can make your function module remotely enabled in attributes of Function module but
    A BAPI are standard SAP function modules provided by SAP for remote access.
    Also they are part of Businees Objest Repository(BOR).
    BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects.
    You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository)
    which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA.
    In this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system
    in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call.
    Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types.
    These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types.
    Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs.
    Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.
    The following standardized BAPIs are provided:
    Reading instances of SAP business objects
    GetList ( ) With the BAPI GetList you can select a range of object key values,
    for example, company codes and material numbers.
    The BAPI GetList() is a class method.
    GetDetail() With the BAPI GetDetail() the details of an instance of a business object type are retrieved
    and returned to the calling program.
    The instance is identified via its key.
    The BAPI GetDetail() is an instance method.
    BAPIs that can create, change or delete instances of a business object type
    The following BAPIs of the same object type have to be programmed
    so that they can be called several times within one transaction.
    For example, if, after sales order 1 has been created, a second sales order 2 is created in the same transaction,
    the second BAPI call must not affect the consistency of the sales order 2.
    After completing the transaction with a COMMIT WORK, both the orders are saved consistently in the database.
    Create( ) and CreateFromData! ( )
    The BAPIs Create() and CreateFromData() create an instance of an SAP business object type,
    for example, a purchase order. These BAPIs are class methods.
    Change( )
    The BAPI Change() changes an existing instance of an SAP business object type,
    for example, a purchase order. The BAPI Change () is an instance method.
    Delete( ) and Undelete( ) The BAPI Delete() deletes an instance of an SAP business object type from the database
    or sets a deletion flag.
    The BAPI Undelete() removes a deletion flag. These BAPIs are instance methods.
    Cancel ( ) Unlike the BAPI Delete(), the BAPI Cancel() cancels an instance of a business object type.
    The instance to be cancelled remains in the database and an additional instance is created
    and this is the one that is actually canceled. The Cancel() BAPI is an instance method.
    Add<subobject> ( ) and Remove<subobject> ( ) The BAPI Add<subobject> adds a subobject to an existing object inst!
    ance and the BAPI and Remove<subobject> removes a subobject from an object instance.
    These BAPIs are instance methods.

    Java Connector(JCO) can call not only BAPI's but also the function modules which are remotely enabled..
    BAPI's as i said earlier are remotely enabled function modules..
    Hence, JCO can call also BAPI's(n not only BAPI's as u mentioned).
    Check the following BDC over BAPI
    The steps to be followed are :
    1. Find out the relevant BAPI (BAPI_SALESORDER_CHANGE for VA02).
    [for VA01 use BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2]
    2. Create a Z program and call the BAPi (same as a Funtion module call).
    2. Now, if you see this BAPi, it has
    -> Importing structures.
    eg: SALESDOCUMENT: this will take the Sales order header data as input.
    -> Tables parameters:
    eg: ORDER_ITEM_IN: this will take the line item data as input.
    Note :
    Only specify fields that should be changed
    Select these fields by entering an X in the checkboxes
    Enter a U in the UPDATEFLAG field
    Always specify key fields when changing the data, including in the checkboxes
    The configuration is an exception here. If this needs to be changed, you need to complete it again fully.
    Maintain quantities and dates in the schedule line data
    Possible UPDATEFLAGS:
    U = change
    D = delete
    I = add
    Example
    1. Delete the whole order
    2. Delete order items
    3. Change the order
    4. Change the configuration
    Notes
    1. Minimum entry:
    You must enter the order number in the SALESDOCUMENT structure.
    You must always enter key fields for changes.
    You must always specify the update indicator in the ORDER_HEADER_INX.
    2. Commit control:
    The BAPI does not run a database Commit, which means that the application must trigger the Commit
    so that the changes are read to the database. To do this, use the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT BAPI.
    For further details... refer to the Function Module documentation for the BAPi.

  • Advantages of 64 bit Tuxedo over 32 bit Tuxedo

    Hi All,
    I want to migrate Tuxedo 9.1 from 32 bit Tuxedo to 64 bit Tuxedo. Please tell what are the advantages of 64 bit Tuxedo over 32 bit Tuxedo.
    Our Machines on which Tuxedo and Oracle are installed have 64 bit IBM AIX OS. Oracle is also 64 bit but Tuxedo is 32 bit.
    Thanks in advance.
    Edited by: Ravi Ranjan Karn on Feb 17, 2009 8:33 PM

    Dear Todd & Ravi ,
    We recently migrated Tuxedo From 32 bit ( 8.0) to 10.0 64 Bit . Regarding Performace we did not notice much improvment .
    Rather it took more 4GB Ram to run smoothy ( it was running with 6 GB Ram ) .
    We did the upgrade mainly for OS compatability , TSAM and SALT .
    Ravi ,
    regarding your thread related with RAC , here is my understanding .
    Any how we have to configure in ubb to connect to the instance(s)
    As per Oracle - in 10gR2 , its not possible to span global transaction between two instances, it has to be in a Single Instance .( as per them its allowed in 11g , but performance will be impacted which i cannot compromise )
    In this case , how we will make use of the 2nd instance of RAC .?
    u have a common service let say SRVC1 , which is connecting to one schema-1 of database and part of GT and used by more than one application .say SRVC2 , which is connecting to one schema-2 of database and part of GT and used by more than one application .
    in this case how you will , configure tuxedo to use the 2nd instance - which is not possible as per statement 1 .
    Conclusion, as per the current architecture of u r Tuxedo , there is no point in introduction Oracle-RAC,
    but we can use RAC , by modifying Tuxedo
    1. programmatically , change tuxedo to use the SRVC2 , in case a failure occurs in the call to SRVC1
    2. replicate the SRVC1,SRVC2 and connect to the second Instance , route transactions in to this service from some applications .
    3. simple way .. keep a secondary ubbconf2 file to point the second instance , in case the instace1 fails , load the ubbconf2 and run ( but for this u need to bring down the whole tuxedo!!!! )
    this suggestion is totally based on my understanding ... If guys think other way , pls share

  • Advantage and disadvantage of view over physical table

    Hi,
    Can you explain me Advantage and disadvantage of view over physical table

    Hi Nitin,
    A view can be thought of as either a virtual table or a stored query. The data accessible through a view is not stored in the database as a distinct object. What is stored in the database is a SELECT statement. The result set of the SELECT statement forms
    the virtual table returned by the view. A user can use this virtual table by referencing the view name in Transact-SQL statements the same way a table is referenced.
    For more information about the advantages and disadvantages of views in SQL Server, please refer to the following two articles:

  • Advantages of new iTunes account over sharing mine for child?

    Hi -
    I've tried to read through the previous discussions but there are so many and many were before iOS 5 - here's the situation:
    My husband got a new iphone 4s so we disabled the AT&T contract on his 3GS and want to give it to our daughter.  She currently has an iPod Touch but it's linked to MY iTunes account. The advantages of this in the early days was that I could easily put her music on and then we only needed one purchase of music, apps, movies, etc.  (Obvious disadvantage was that now I have to have Justin Bieber in my iTunes account music and videos!) 
    Anyway, her iPod Touch was the 2nd generation so it couldn't upgrade to iOS 5 - giving her the iPhone 3GS will give her greater capacity and the iOS5 functions, so that's great.
    I was thinking with that upgrade, I would also need to/want to set her up with her own iTunes account.  Then, she could manage her own music, apps, upgrades, etc. Also, with the phone camera feature, her PhotoStream would be independent of mine (that's key because I don't want her zillion photos on my iphone, ipad, computer, etc.)  Plus, I believe she could use iMessage to text just me and my husband (without the phone contract) while she can't if it's technically me signed in on both devices.  I think we wouldn't need to make duplicate purchases if we used home sharing to copy over the little bits of music, videos and apps she currently uses.  And, I was going to manage with the iTunes allowance/gift card option.
    That said, as I started reading up, it seems there is some drawbacks to setting her up on her own iTunes account if she doesn't really need it yet?  It seems most suggest keeping her on my iTunes account.  I just thought it might be time for a clean break - are their obvious advantages/disadvantages to her having her own iTunes account that I am missing?
    One last, but slightly unrelated question, when I go to wipe my husband's phone and set her up, is there any way to pull her settings, music, apps, etc. from her current iPod Touch or do we have to start from scratch b/c of the different devices. 
    Thanks in advance -

    Due to the New Year's holiday,  I thought I'd ask again if anyone had any guidance on this.  She's very anxious to get her "iPhone that's not a phone. 

  • Advantages of Apple's MAIL over webmail alternatives (e.g., Yahoo! Mail)

    What advantages there are, if any, to using Apple's MAIL program over, e.g., Yahoo! Mail?
    I began using email on the Internet long before I got a Mac and so have been a longtime user of webmail (i.e., Yahoo! Mail).
    Webmail has one obvious advantage -- it can be accessed anywhere (including on PC's).
    Webmail, as it currently exists, also has one great disadvantage -- its customer service tends to be poor, largely (so it seems to me) because it is staffed by people who are poorly-trained and often none-too-bright (my impression based on some of the replies I get). There are also no user forums for Yahoo! Mail comparable to those available at apple.com.
    To date, that has not been enough of a problem for me to switch.
    However, if there are particularly useful advantages to MAIL I'd like to know -- maybe I'll change my mind.
    Are there any?
    Thanks. Replies appreciated.

    Webmail's major advantage is that you can always access it even if you don't have a computer with you. The disadvantage is the degree of management control you have over your mail.
    A dedicated mail application provides management features that webmail usually does not. An advantage of Mail is the integration with iCal and Address Book.
    You would need to use a dedicated email application for a while to determine if the additional features are something you need enough to warrant moving away from a webmail account, although ideally having an email ISP that provided both webmail and remote mail access would be ideal. You can have that with Yahoo but only with their upgraded fee account. Free Yahoo mail is only accessible via the web.

  • Advantages of Final Cut HD over FCE?

    Can anyone tell me the advantages of FCHD over FCE?
    Is it worth the investment?
    Thanks!

    Do you mean the difference between FCE and FCEHD? There isn't any. Same product. It was first called FCE. Later versions, when HD capability was added, were called FCE HD. The current version is FCE3.5, by it's full name Final Cut Express HD 3.5. FCP was also FCP HD for a while, but the HD has been dropped now, and it is simply Final Cut Pro 6.0.
