Best Approach for Performance/Event Monitoring

I'm completely new to SAP and would appreciate the input of some more experienced folks.
I have been given two tasks for SAP: performance monitoring of the SAP application/associated modules (e.g. SAP Memory utilization, number of processes, etc.) and alarm event monitoring (anything that would be characterized as a error and logged).
For the performance monitoring I would like a access the metrics once every 5 minutes to keep a running history. Several things I've started to look at are the Alert Manager and perhaps a Perl API interface.
For alarm events, I assume there is some SAP module that can monitor for these and generate SNMP traps or perhaps a custom application that does log mining. As part of this I am trying to determine where error events are written to in SAP (e.g. a log file??).
If anyone has insight or can point me in the right direction, I would be very appreciative. Thanks in advance.
Ed

Dear Ed,
If Wily Introscope is configured for your Portal, which shoold be the case because SAP delivers it as with SAP Solution Manager, all metrics which oyu mention would be available.
If you are running a testing instance which is not integrated with Solution Manager, you could try the Web Administrator

What is the best approach for combining events?

When I work on a wedding my current workflow involves creating a compound clip for each section of the video (e.g. reception, ceremony, dancing etc). Then I add the compound clip 'sequences' into a single project to add the chapter markers and export to a single master file.
I like the idea of managing each section in a project rather than a compound clip now that projects are part of the library in 10.1, but is there a good way to combine multiple projects (for each section) into a single master project, or would I still need to copy the contents of each project and paste in the master project?
Maybe I am best to continue with my current workflow.

Just saw the discussion title - should have said "What is the best approach for combining projects"?

Best approach for performing DMLs using stored procedures

Hi,
I have a really general question and would like to hear your say about this.
I want my application to manipulate or read data using stored procedures (or packages in that manner) and not directly using queries against the DB.
Let's say I have a table with many columns:
create table test (pkid number(10),col1 varchar2(30), col2 number(10), col3 date,...);For such a DML procedure, is it best to do something like
procedure do_update(i_pkid IN number,i_col1 IN varchar2, i_col2 IN number, i_col3 IN date,...) as
begin
   update test
   set col1=i_col1,
        col2=i_col2,
        col3=i_col3...
   where pkid=i_pkid;
   commit;
end;Or do a selective update, meaning update only a certain column every time, given only 1 column actually changes? (and how to do that - separate procedures for each column? [columns can be nulls])
Also, is it better to work with test.col1%type instead of specifying the data type in the procedure?
And one last question - If I have a table with 100 columns and I don't want to create a procedure with 100 parameters - the best approach would be to use a record?
I just need to be set on the way I start implementing things in order to do it well from the start.
Many thanks.

One last clarification (although it may be more related to c/c++ developers - maybe one of you will know):
We are working with C++ and VB against a SQLServer and my part is to translate all the existing procedures to Oracle in order to migrate the application to work with Oracle DB.
The existing procedures use an IN parameter for each column in the table and I would really like to use rowtype like you mentioned.
Since I'm not a c/c++/vb developer - is there an easy way of working with such types, or even User-Defined Types, from c/c++/vb (as in passing a rowtype record from c++ to a SP ?)
I'm not looking for the actual way - just want to know how hard it would be and how much code needs to be changed in order to be able to convince the developers that this is the RIGHT way to work.
PS. none of our developers have experience with ORACLE so they wouldn't know the answer...Not actually an Oracle server-side (SQL language or PL/SQL language) question - but a client one. And it has been a long time since I wrote a fat client using C/C++ or Delphi.
The OCI (<i>Oracle Call Interface</i>) supports advance (user defined) SQL data types. Has since Oracle 8i. So in that respect, yes the client can support custom SQL data types.
How well it does depends entirely on that client language's features wrt OCI integration. For example, Delphi 4 was release around Oracle 8i and supported custom SQL types. I would expect that most languages today (like Java and C#) will provide support for it.
As for usiong +%ROWTYPE+ - this is a PL/SQL clause as far as I know. Unsure whether it is supported by the OCI. What could support it is a pre-compiler like Pro*C. These enable you to mix pseudo SQL source code with client language source code. The pre-compilation step then replaces the pseudo SQL code with native client language calls to the OCI. The code is then compiled by that client language's compiler. Pre-compilers can pull all kinds of interesting "tricks" with their pseudo SQL code support.
The best would be to consult the applicable client language's manuals that describe the interface it supports (via OCI) to Oracle.

What are the best approaches for mapping re-start in OWB?

What are the best approaches for mapping re-start in OWB?
We are using OWB repository 10.2.0.1.0 and OWB client 10.2.0.1.31. The Oracle version is 10 G (10.2.0.3.0). OWB is installed on Linux.
We have number of mappings. We built process flows for mappings as well.
I like to know, what are the best approches to incorportate re-start options in our process. ie a failure of mapping in process flow.
How do we re-cycle failed rows?
Are there any builtin features/best approaches in OWB to implement the above?
Does runtime audit tables help us to build re-start process?
If not, do we need to maintain our own tables (custom) to maintain such data?
How did our forum members handled above situations?
Any idea ?
Thanks in advance.
RI

Hi RI,
How many mappings (range) do you have in a process flows?Several hundreds (100-300 mappings).
If we have three mappings (eg m1, m2, m3) in process flow. What will happen if m2 fails?Suppose mappings connected sequentially (m1 -> m2 -> m3). When m2 fails then processflow is suspended (transition to m3 will not be performed). You should obviate cause of error (modify mapping and redeploy, correct data, etc) and then repeat m2 mapping execution from Workflow monitor - open diagram with processflow, select mapping m2 and click button Expedite, choose option Repeat.
In re-start, will it run m1 again and m2 son on, or will it re-start at row1 of m2?You can specify restart point. "at row1 of m2" - I don't understand what you mean (all mappings run in Set based mode, so in case of error all table updates will rollback,
but there are several exception - for example multiple target tables in mapping without corelated commit, or error in post-mapping - you must carefully analyze results of error).
What will happen if m3 fails?Process is suspended and you can restart execution from m3.
By having without failover and with max.number of errors=0, you achieve re-cycle failed rows to zero (0).This settings guarantee existence only two return result of mapping - SUCCSES or ERROR.
What is the impact, if we have large volume of data?In my opinion for large volume Set based mode is the prefered processing mode of data processing.
With this mode you have full range enterprise features of Oracle database - parallel query, parallel DML, nologging, etc.

Design Patterns, best approach for this app

Hi all,
i am starting with design patterns, and i would like to hear your opinion on what would be the best approach for this app.
this is basically an app for data monitoring, analysis and logging (voltage, temperature & vibration)
i am using 3 devices for N channels (NI 9211A, NI 9215A, NI PXI 4472) all running at different rates. asynchronous.
and signals are being processed and monitored for logging at a rate specified by the user and in realtime also.
individual devices can be initialized or stopped at any time
basically i'm using 5 loops.
*1.- GUI: Stop App, Reload Plot Names (Event handling)
*2.- Chart & Log: Monitors Data and Start/Stop log data at a specified time in the GUI (State Machine)
*3.- Temperature DAQ monitoring @ 3 S/s (State Machine) NI 9211A
*4.- Voltage DAQ monitoring and scaling @ 1K kS/s (State Machine) NI 9215A
*5.- Vibration DAQ monitoring and Analysis @ 25.6 kS/s (State Machine) NI PXI 4472
i have attached the files for review, thanks in advance for taking the time.

thanks Will for your response,
so, basically i could apply a producer/consummer architecture for just the Vibration analysis loop? or all data being collected by the Monitor/Logger loop?
is it ok having individual loops for every DAQ device as is shown?
thanks.
You could use the producer/consumer architecture to split the areas where you are doing both the data collection and teh analysis in the same state machine. If one of these processes is not time critical or the data rate is slow enough you could leave it in a single state machine. I admit that I didn't look through your code but based purely on the descriptions above I would imagine that you could change the three collection state machines to use a producer/consumer architecture. I would leave your UI processing in its own loop as well as the logging process. If this logging is time critical you may want to split that as well.

What's Best Approach for Multitrack Classical Music?

Can someone suggest the best approach for recording classical musicians onto
four tracks? In this scenario, they play until they make a mistake on, say,
measure 24, stop, then (take 2) go back to measure 20 and play until the next
rough spot, and so on. Ultimately there may be 15 takes that all need to be
trimmed and stitched together.
In the old (tape) days, this was pretty basic editing. I would use a blade and block
to cut out all the bad stuff on the multitrack tape, then I could mix. But how do I
do this in Audition? (I use version 1.5.)
I can't do the cuts it in edit view because the tracks would get out of sync
Assuming all the takes are in one session, in multitrack view, this most basic of
functions seems to elude me. What am I missing?

If you follow Steve's advice, and after doing the edits you discover
that one instrument should come up 1db, you are screwed.
I could be wrong about this in the classical music environment,
where things are not close-mic'ed but if I am, I am confident Steve
will correct me. Ha.
You always run the risk of small changes between takes - and that's where Audition 3 and the new improved crossfades score rather heavily. You won't notice 1dB on a single instrument across a fade though - it's hard to spot this as a jump, even, unless it's on pure tone. No, I very rarely close-mic stuff at all, although I did with a clavichord recently - it's seriously too quiet to mic any other way.

when recording classical music, any engineer worth anything has the mix down pat as it's being recorded.
That's the way they used to work, certainly - but not nowadays, especially if it's done on location, which most classical recording is. What's more likely to happen is that you'd use decent mic preamps feeding straight into a multitrack, or even some software on a laptop. I generally record like that - but I also feed the multitrack outputs to a Yamaha mixer via ADAT, do a mix on that and record it back to a spare multitrack pair. I don't actually need to do that - but having a mix available from the multitrack that's pretty much there is good as far as being able to play back takes to conductors is concerned.
Of course, one of the other reasons that classical sessions recorded on location aren't mixed on the spot is that the monitoring conditions are invariably far from ideal, and I'd have it that no engineer worth anything would ever risk a final mix done on location.
But I only get paid to do all of this on a regular basis, so what would I know? Must be something though - my customers come back for more...

Best approach for uploading document using custom web part-Client OM or REST API

Hi,
Am using my custom upload Visual web part for uploading documents in my document library with a lot of metadata.
This columns contain single line of text, dropdownlist, lookup columns and managed metadata columns[taxonomy] also.
so, would like to know which is the best approach for uploading.
curretnly I am trying to use the traditional SSOM, server oject model.Would like to know which is the best approach for uploading files into doclibs.
I am having hundreds of sub sites with 30+ doc libs within those sub sites. Currently its taking few minutes to upload the files in my dev env. am just wondering, what would happen if the no of subsites reaches hundred!
am looking from the performance perspective.
my thought process is :
1) Implement Client OM
2) REST API
Has anyone tried these approaches before, and which approach provides better performance.
if anyone has sample source code or links, pls provide the same
and if there any restrictions on the size of the file uploaded?
any suggestions are appreciated!

What's the best approach for handeling about 1300 connections in Oracle.

What's the best approach for handling about 1300 connections in Oracle 9i/10g through a Java application?
1.Using separate schema s for various type users(We can store only relevant data with a particular schema. Then No. of records per table can be reduced by replicating tables but we have to maintain all data with a another schema Then we need update two schema s for a given session.Because we maintain separate scheama for a one user and another schema for all data and then there may be Updating problems)
OR
2. Using single schema for all users.
Note: All users may access the same tables and there may be lot of records than previous case.
What is the Best case.
Please give Your valuable ideas

Best approach for IDOC - JDBC scenario

Hi,
In my scenarion I am creating sales order(ORDERS04) in R/3 system and which need to be replicated in a SQL Server system. I am sending the order to XI as an IDoc and want to use JDBC for sending data to SQL Server. I need to insert data in two tables(header & details). Is it possible without BPM? Or what is the best approach for this?
Thanks,
Sri.

Yes, this is possible without the BPM.
Just create the Corresponding Datatype for the insertion.
if the records to be inserted are different, then there wil be 2 different datatypes ( one for header and one for detail).
Do a mutlimapping, where your Source is mapped into the header and details datatype and then send using the JDBC sender adapter.
For the strucutre of your Datatype for insertion , just check this link,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7e/5df96381ec72468a00815dd80f8b63/content.htm
To access any Database from XI, you will have to install the corresponding Driver on your XI server.

Best approach for RFC call from Adapter module

What is the best approach for making a RFC call from a <b>reciever</b> file adapter module?
1. JCo
2. Is it possible to make use of MappingLookupAPI classes to achieve this or those run in the mapping runtime environment only?
3. Any other way?
Has anybody ever tried this? Any pointers????
Regards,
Amol

Hi ,
The JCo lookup is internally the same as the Jco call. the only difference being you are not hardcoding the system related data in the code. So its easier to maintain during transportation.
Also the JCO lookup code is more readable.

Best Approach for Reporting on SAP HANA Views

Hi,
Kindly provide information w.r.t the best approach for the reporting on HANA views for the architecture displayed below:
We are on a lookout for information mainly around the following points:
There are two reporting options which are known to us and listed below namely:
Reporting on HANA views through SAP BW (View > VirtualProvider > BEx > BI 4.1)
Reporting on HANA views in ECC using BI 4.1 tools
Which is the best option for reporting (please provide supportive reasons : as in advantages and limitations)?
In case a better approach exists, please let us know of the same.
Best approach for reporting option on a mixed scenario wherein data of BW and HANA views is to be utilized together.

Hi Alston,
To be honest I did not understand the architecture that you have figured out in your message.
Do you have HANA instance as far as I understood and one ERP and BW is running on HANA. Or there might be 2 HANA instance and ERP and BW are running independently.
Anyway If you have HANA you have many options to present data by using analytic views. Also you have BW on HANA as EDW. So for both you can use BO and Lumira as well for presenting data.
Check this document as well: http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-34403

Best approach for building dialogs based on Java Beans

I have a large amount of Java Beans with several properties each. These represent all the "data" in our system. We will now build a new GUI for the system and I intend to reuse the beans as far as possible. My idea is to automatically generate the configuration dialogs for each bean using the java.beans package.
What is the best approach for achieving this? Should I use PropertyEditors or should I make my own dialog-generator using the Introspetor class or are there any other suitable solutions?
All suggestions and tips are very welcome.
Thanks!

Definitely, it is better for you to use JTable. Why not try it?

Best approach for publishing a paid version and an ad supported free version of the same app

Hi,
One of my Windows 8 store app is almost ready for store submission.
What is the best approach for publishing a paid version and an ad supported free version of the same app.
Can I do the following
1. Submit the app with unlimited free trial to store
2. During the free trial ads will be displayed
3. If the user purchases the app, then the ad would not displayed
Any advise is greatly
appreciated.
Best Regards

Although the in-App purchase option is good but for ad based apps my approach is different.
I would suggest putting 2 different apps in the store, one free with Ads and one without. Reason being you want the extra reference and xaml ad controls depending upon how
many you have on the paid version of the apps. I would keep my apps as lighter and cleaner as possible specially when its a paid app.
I currently manage both free and paid app through one solution and reuse most of the code except for the views.
