Best Practice for link to WebdynPro page in welcome page

Hi Experts,
I am new in SAP Portal. I need some guidance from you guys. I have a requirement to create welcome page which is JSP and has a link to a WebdynPro page. I have to put the url in JSP file. So i do not know what kind of URL i should put in the JSP.
The problem is if i put the url which i can see in the address bar like 'http://DevServer/WebDynPro/ApplcationA', when i transport it to another server ,for example Production,. The real url might be change to 'http://ProdServer/WebDynPro/ApplcationA'. It may cause the link in JSP can not be worked.
I would like to ask you the best practice for this case. What url? What configuration?
Thank you in advance,
Noppong Jinbunluphol
P.S. For the JSP, i create it in portal application dc.

Dear Noppong,
You can do it with multiple ways like :-
1. Get the current host name and make complete URL with using host name for the webdynpro iview.
request = (IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest();
HttpServletRequest req = request.getServletRequest();
StringBuffer strURL = req.getRequestURL();
2. Create the KM Document or Link for webdynpro Iview OR Create the WPC Web Page for the webdynpro ivew

Best practice for linking fields from multiple entity objects

I am currently transitioning from PHP to ADF. I'm looking for the best practice for linking data from multiple entity objects.
Example:
EO 'REQUESTS' has fields: req_id, name, dt, his_stat_id, her_stat_id
EO 'STATUSES' has fields: stat_id, short_txt_descr
'REQUESTS' is linked to EO 'STATUSES' on: STATUSES.stat_id = REQUESTS.his_status_id
'REQUESTS' is also linked to EO 'STATUSES' on: STATUSES.stat_id = REQUESTS.her_status_id
REQUESTS.his_status_id is independent of REQUESTS.her_status_id
When I create a VO for REQUESTS, I want to display: REQUESTS.name, REQUESTS.dt, STATUSES.short_txt_descr (for his_stat_id), STATUS.short_txt_descr (for her_stat_id)
What is the best practice for accomplishing this? It appears I could do it a few different ways:
1. Create the REQUESTS VO with a LOV for his_stat_id and her_stat_id
2. Create the REQUESTS VO with the join to STATUSES performed within the query for the VO. This would require joining on the STATUSES EO twice (his_stat_id, her_stat_id)
3. I just started reading about View Links - would that somehow do what I'm looking for?
I also need to be able to update his_status_id and her_status_id through the by selecting a STATUSES.short_txt_descr from a dropdown.
Any suggestions on how to approach such a stupidly simple task?
Using jDeveloper 11.1.2.2.0 if that makes a difference in the solution.
Thanks ahead of time,
CJ

CJ,
I vote for solution 1 as it's just your use case. As you said you what to update the his_status_id and her_status_id through the by selecting a STATUSES.short_txt_descr by a drop down. This is exactly the LOV solution.
ViewLinks are used fro master detail navigation (which you don't do here) and Joining the data make it difficult to update (and you still need a LOV for the drop down box.

Best practices for submitting CF data to an AJAX page?

Hi everyone,
I've got a project I'm working on for work and have hit a
little problem.
I am extracting data from my database and then after each
piece of data (just numbers, usually 10 chunks of numbers), I tack
a "|" onto the end of each number. Then, I output the data to the
page. Back on my AJAX enabled page, I get the "responseText" from
that page, and then split it up using javascript and the
pre-inserted "|".
This seems to work fine, but it is quite a bit more messy.
Also, It would really, really be nice to be able to do sorting and
various other operations on the data with javascript instead of
having to rely on CF's icky code logic.
Can someone please enlighten me as to best practices for this
type of thing? I get the suspicion that I'll probably be using XML
somehow, but I'd your opinion.
Thanks!

Best practice for java script placement on a BC page?

Hi guys just a general ask about where the best place for java script is on a BC page.
I just watched the this very good video on optimization http://bcgurus.com/tutorials/how-to-do-website-performance-optimization and in it it says how you should try and load the scripts at the bottom of the page so that it loads quicker.
now I want to do this but with it being a BC site i dont know if certain scripts have to be in the head of the doc. For instance the validate script I have? Does anyone know what I can and cant move from the head?
I was going to do what kiyuco like to practice and add all my scripts to a content holder and then add that to my pages/templates. Will BC like me adding this to the bottom of the page and not the head?
Thanks

Hello Ramesh,
you should have a look at the SAP Instguide, and if it tells you to do as your colleagues say, open a ticket to SAP and ask, whether doing it the otherw ay could have spoiled your system. Anything but an official "yes, it's ok" won't help you.

What is the best practice for creating master pages and styles with translated text?

I format translated text all the time for my company. I want to create a set of master pages and styles for each language and then import those styles into future translated documents. That way, the formatting can be done quickly and easily.
What are the best practices for doing this? As a company this has been tried in the past, but without success. I'd like to know what other people are doing in this regard.
Thank you!

I create a master template that is usually void of content, with the exception I define as many of the paragraph styles I believe can/will be used with examples of their use in the body of the document--a style guide for that client. When beginning a new document for that client, I import those styles from the paragraph styles panel.
Exception to this is when in a rush I begin documentation first, then begin new work. Then in the new work, I still pull in those defined paragraph and or object styles via their panels into the new work.
There are times I need new styles. If they have broader applicability than a one-off instance or publication, then I open the style template for that client and import that style(s) from the publication containing the new style(s) and create example paragraphs and usage instructions.
Take care, Mike

BEST PRACTICES FOR CREATING DISCOVERER DATABASE CONNECTION -PUBLIC VS. PRIV

I have enabled SSO for Discoverer. So when you browse to http://host:port/discoverer/viewer you get prompted for your SSO
username/password. I have enabled users to create their own private
connections. I log in as portal and created a private connection. I then from
Oracle Portal create a portlet and add a discoverer worksheet using the private
connection that I created as the portal user. This works fine...users access
the portal they can see the worksheet. When they click the analyze link, the
users are prompted to enter a password for the private connection. The
following message is displayed:
The item you are requesting requires you to enter a password. This could occur because this is a private connection or
because the public connection password was invalid. Please enter the correct
password now to continue.
I originally created a public connection...and then follow the same steps from Oracle portal to create the portlet and display the
worksheet. Worksheet is displayed properly from Portal, when users click the
analyze link they are taken to Discoverer Viewer without having to enter a
password. The problem with this is that when a user browses to
http://host:port/discoverer/viewer they enter their SSO information and then
any user with an SSO account can see the public connection...very insecure!
When private connections are used, no connection information is displayed to
SSO users when logging into Discoverer Viewer.
For the very first step, when editing the Worksheet portlet from Portal, I enter the following for Database
Connections:
Publisher: I choose either the private or public connection that I created
Users Logged In: Display same data to all users using connection (Publisher's Connection)
Users Not Logged In: Do no display data
My question is what are the best practices for creating Discoverer Database
Connections.
Is there a way to create a public connection, but not display it in at http://host:port/discoverer/viewer?
Can I restrict access to http://host:port/discoverer/viewer to specific SSO users?
So overall, I want roughly 40 users to have access to my Portal Page Group. I then want to
display portlets with Discoverer worksheets. Certain worksheets I want to have
the ability to display the analyze link. When the SSO user clicks on this they
will be taken to Discoverer Viewer and prompted for no logon information. All
SSO users will see the same data...there is no need to restrict access based on
SSO username...1 database user will be set up in either the public or private
connection.

You can make it happen by creating a private connection for 40 users by capi script and when creating portlet select 2nd option in Users Logged in section. In this the portlet uses there own private connection every time user logs in.
So that it won't ask for password.
Another thing is there is an option of entering password or not in ASC in discoverer section, if your version 10.1.2.2. Let me know if you need more information

Best Practices for Defining NDS Java Projects...

We are doing a Proof of Concept on using NDS to develop non-SAP Java applications. We are attempting to determine if we can replace our current Java development tools with NDS/WAS.
We are struggling with SAP's terminology and "plumbing" for setting up/defining Java projects. For example, what is and when do you define Tracks, Software Components, Development Components, etc. All of these terms are totally foreign to us and do not relate to our current Java environment (at least not that we can see). We are also struggling with how the DTR and activities tie in to those components.
If any one has defined best practices for setting up Java projects or has struggled with and overcome these same issues, please provide us with some guidance. This is a very frustrating and time-consuming issue for us.
Thank you!!

Hi Peggy,
In Component Model we divide software projects into small components.Components can use other components in well defined manner.
A development object is a part of a component that can be changed or developed in some way; it provides the component with a certain part of its functionality. A development object may be a Java class, a Web Dynpro view, a table definition, a JSP page, and so on. Development objects are always stored as sources in a repository.
A development component can be defined as a frame shared by a number of objects, which are part of the software.
Software components combine components (DCs) to larger units for delivery and deployment.
A track comprises configurations and runtime systems required for developing software component versions.It ensures stable states of deliverables used by subsequent tracks.
The Design Time Repository is for versioning source code management. Distributed development of software in teams. Transport and replication of sources.
You can also find lot of support in SDN for the above concepts with tutorials.

Best practice for upgrading task definition without deleting task instances

best practice for upgrading task definition in production system without deleting or terminating task instances
If I try and update a task definition with task instances running I get the following error:
Task definition 'My Task - Add User' may not be modified while there are active task instances
Is there a best practice to handle this. I tried to force an update through the console but that didn't work. I tried editing the task from the debug page and got the same error.

1) Rename the original task definition.
2) Upload the new task definition with the original name.
3) Later, after all the running tasks have timed out, delete the old definition.
E.g., if your task definition is "myWorkflow":
1) Rename "myWorkflow" to "myWorkflow-old-2009-07-28"
2) Upload the new task definition as "myWorkflow".
Existing tasks will stay linked to the original (renamed) workflow definition.
New tasks will use the new definition.
As the previous poster notes, depending on the changes you are making, letting the old task definitions stay active could have bad side-effects and might be better avoided.

Best practice for server configuration for iTunes U

Hello all, I'm completely new to iTunes U, never heard of this until now and we have zero documentation on how to set it up. I was given the task to look at best practice for setting up the server for iTunes U, and I need your help.
*My first question*: Can anyone explains to me how iTunes U works in general? My brief understanding is that you design/setup a welcome page for your school with sub categories like programs/courses, and within that you have things like lecture audio/video files and students can download/view them on iTunes. So where are these files hosted? Is it on your own server or is it on Apple's server? Where & how do you manage the content?
*2nd question:* We have two Xserve(s) sitting in our server room ready to roll, my question is what is the best method to configure them so it meets our need of "high availability in active/active mode, load balancing, and server scaling". Originally I was thinking about using a 3rd party load balancing device to meet these needs, but I was told there is no budget for it so this is not going to happen. I know there is IP Failover but one server has to sit in standby mode which is a waste. So the most likely scenario is to setup DNS round robin and put both xserves in active/active. My question now is (this maybe related to question 1), say that all the content data like audio/video files are stored by us, (We are going to link a portion of our SAN space to Xserve for storage), if we are going with DNS round robin and put the 2 servers in Active/Active mode, can both servers access a common shared network space? or is this not possible and each server must have its own storage space? And therefore I must use something like RSYNC to make sure contents on both servers are identical? Should I use XSAN or is RSYNC good enough?
Since I have no experience with iTunes U whatsoever, I hope you understand my questions, any advice and suggestion are most welcome, thanks!

wht is the Best Practice for having server pool i.e
1) having a single large serverpool consisting of "n" number of guest vm
2) having a multiple small serverpool consisting of less of number of guest vm I prefer option 1, as this gives me the greatest amount of resources available. I don't have to worry about resources in smaller pools. It also means there are more resources across the pool for HA purposes. Not sure if this is Official Best Practice, but it is a simpler configuration.
Keep in mind that a server pool should probably have up to 20 servers in it: OCFS2 starts to strain after that.

Best practices for XMLType to RDMS migration

We are storing XBRL files (basically XML) into oracle 11.2 as XMLType. Each XML files containing more than 500 tags. For reporting purpose we are extracting around 200 values from XML files to normal tables (NORMAL_TABLE).Reading from XML file directly is taking more execution time so we are doing migration as job from XMLType to NORMAL_TABLE. Basically each row in NORMAL_TABLE represent each XML files, that mean now we have around 200 columns in NORMAL_TABLE.
Because of new requirement and CR , now we need more values to be migrate from XML to NORMAL_TABLE. Which would be the best practices for this case? Is it ok to add more columns into NORMAL_TABLE ?

The link is not working (Error Page 404), maybe this one can help:
[http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database-features/xmldb/xmlqueryoptimize11gr2-168036.pdf]
Actually, It's not about RDBMS migration, but I think it can help anyway.

What is the guideline and/or best practice for EMC setup on ASM?

We are going to use EMC CX4-480 for ASM storage on RAC. What is the guideline and best practice for EMC setup on ASM?
Thanks for the advice!

Probably a poor choice of words. Sorry.
So basically, I have gotten further, but I just noticed related problem.
I'm using the WebServices(WS) 1.0. I insert an account, then, on a separate WS call, I insert my contacts for the account. I include the AccountID, and a user defined key from the Account when creating the Contact.
When I look at my Contact on the CRMOD web page, it shows the appropriate links back to the Account. But when I look at my Account on the CRMOD web page, it shows no Contacts.
So when I say workflow or Best Practice, I was hoping for guidance on how to properly write my code to accomplish all of the necessary steps. As in this is how you insert an account with a contact(s) and it updates the appropriate IDs so that it shows up properly on the CRMOD web pages.
Based on the above, it looks like I need to, as the next step, take the ContactID and update the Account with it so that their is a bi-directional link.
I'm thinking there is a better way in doing this.
Here is my psuedocode:
AccountInsert()
AccountID = NewAcctRec
ContactInsert(NewAcctRec)
ContactID = NewContRec
AccountUpdate(NewContRec)
Thanks,

Best Practices for zVM/SLES10/zDB2 environment for dialog instances.

Hi, I am a zSeries system programmer who has just completed an IBM led Proof of Concept which demonstrated the viability of running SAP instances on SUSE SLES10 Linux booted in zVM guests and accessing zDB2 data via hipersockets. Before we build a Linux infrastructure using the 62 IFLs we just procured, we are wondering if any best practices for this environment have been developed as an OSS note or something else by SAP.    Below you will find an email which was sent and responded to by IBM and Novell on these topics...
"As you may know, Home Depot has embarked on an IBM led proof of concept using SUSE SLES10 running in zVM guests on IBM zSeries hardware to host SAP server instances. The Home Depot IT organization is currently in the midst of a large scale push to modernize our merchandising and people systems on SAP platforms. The zVM/SUSE/SAP POC is part of that effort, as is a parallel POC of an Intel Blade/Red Hat/SAP platform. For our production financial systems we now use a pSeries/AIX/SAP platform.
      So far in the zVM/SUSE/SAP POC, we have been able to create four zVM LPARS on IBM z9 hardware, create twelve zVM guests on those LPARS, boot SLES10 in those guests, install and run SAP instances in those guests using hipersockets for access to our DB2 SAP databases running on zOS, and direct user workloads to the SAP instances with good results. We have also successfully developed cloning scripts that have made it possible to create new SLES10 instances, configured and ready for SAP installs, in about 10 seconds using FLASHCOPY and IBM DASD.
      I am writing in the hope that you can direct us to technical resources at IBM/Novell/SAP who may be able to field a few questions that have arisen. In our discussions about optimization of the zVM/SUSE/SAP platform, we wondered if any wisdom about the appropriateness of and support for using zVM capabilities to virtualize SAP has ever been developed or any best practices drafted. Attached you will find an IBM Redbook and a PowerPoint presentation which describes the use of the zVM discontiguous shared segments and the zVM named saved system features for the sharing of reentrant code and other elements of Linux and its applications, thereby conserving storage and disk resources allocated to guest machines.   The specific question of the hour is, can any SAP code be handled similarly? Have specific SAP elements eligible for this treatment been identified?
      I've searched the SUSE Knowledgebase for articles on this topic to no avail. Any similar techniques that might help us reduce the total cost of ownership of a zVM/SUSE/SAP platform as we compare it to Intel Blade/Red Hat/SAP and pSeries/AIX/SAP platforms are of great interest as we approach the end of our POC. Can you help?
      Greg McKelvey is a Client I/T Architect at IBM. He found the attached IBM documents and could give a fuller account of our POC. Pat Downs, IBM zSeries IT Architect, has also worked to guide our POC. Akshay Rao, IBM Systems IT Specialist - Linux | Virtualization | SOA, is acting as project manager for the POC. Jim Hawkins is the Home Depot Architect directing the POC. I've CC:ed their email addresses. I am sure they would be pleased to hear from you if there are the likely questions about what the heck I am asking about here. And while writing, I thought of yet another question that I hoping somebody at SAP might weigh in on; are there any performance or operational benefits to using Linux LVM to apportion disk to filesystems vs. using zVM to create appropriately sized minidisks for filesystems without LVM getting involved?"
As you can see, implementation questions need to be resolved. We have heard from Novell that the SLES10 Kernel and other SUSE artifacts can reside in memory and be shared by multiple operating system images. Does SAP support this configuration? Also, has SAP identified SAP components which are eligible for similar treatment? We would like to make sure that any decisions we make about the SAP platforms we are building will be supportable. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. I will supply the documents referenced above if they are not known to any answerer. Thanks, Al Brasher 770-433-8211 x11895 [email protected]

Hello AL ,
first, let me welcome you on board, I am sure you won't be disapointed with your choice to run SAP on ZOS.
as for your questions,
it wan't easy to find them in this long post , so i suggest you take the time to write a short summary that contains a very short list of questions.
as for answers.
here are a few usefull sources of information :
1. the sap on db2 for Z/os sdn page :
SAP on DB2 for z/OS
in it you can find 2 relevant docs :
a. best practices for ...
b. database administration for db2 udb for z/os .
this second publication is excellent , apart from db2 specific info , it contains information on all the components of the sap on db2 for z/os like zlinux,z/vm and so on ...
2. I can see that you are already familiar with the ibm redbooks , but it seems that you haven't taken the time to get the most out of that resource.
from you post it is clear that you have found one usefull publication , but I know there are several.
3. a few months ago I wrote a short post on a similar subject ,
I'm sure its not exactly what you are looking for at this moment , but its a good start , and with some patience you may be able to get some answers.
here's a link

What are the Best Practices for Optimizing Images in InDesign Files

Is there a best practice for using images InDesign to optimize the document before converting to a PDF? Specifically, what I'm asking is, will the PDF file compress better if the images are cropped prior to placing them in Indesign? I'd like to know the answer for both creating PDF files for printing using images that are 300dpi and for creating PDF files for online delivery using images that are 72dpi. I have an employee that insists images need to be cropped to actual dimensions before placing in the InDesign document. I've never done it that way and believe that her recommended process is way too time consuming and leaves you with no leeway to tweak your page design since the images are tightly cropped.

As for absolute cropping, I agree with your stance. Until the layout is fixed, preserving your ability to easily manipulate photo size and positioning is key.
Some clever image management methods have been described in the discussion forums, and one that appealed most to me was the use of duplicate linked image folders. Having a high-res (CMYK) folder and a low-res (RGB) folder to switch between for different output enables you to use both to your advantage. Use the low-res images for layout, for internal proofing, and for EPUB/online PDF/HTML output. Then it's simply a quick switch to the high-res image folder for print purposes. You can easily prepare the alternate collection of images with a Photoshop batch convert script or with the Photoshop Image Processor. Save your presets!
