Best practice for load balancing on SA540

Are there some 'best practice' guide to configure out load balancing on SA540 .?
I've got 2 ADSL lines and would like device to auto manage outgoing traffic .. Any idea ?
Regards

Hi,
SA500 today implements flow based round robin load balancing scheme.
In the case of two WAN link (over ADSL), by default, the traffic should be "roughly" equally distributed.
So in general, users should have no need to configure anything further for load balancing.
The SA500 also supports protocol binding (~PBR) over WAN links. This mechanism offers more control on how traffic can flow.
For example, if you have 1 ADSL with higher throughput than the other ADSL link offers, you can consider to bind bandwidth-hungry app on the WAN link connecting to the higher ADSL link and the less bandwidth-hungary app on the other one. The other traffic can continue to do round robin. This way you won't saturate the low bandwidth link and give users better application experiences.

Best practices for loading apo planning book data to cube for reporting

Hi,
I would like to know whether there are any Best practices for loading apo planning book data to cube for reporting.
I have seen 2 types of Design:
1) The Planning Book Extractor data is Loaded first to the APO BW system within a Cube, and then get transferred to the Actual BW system. Reports are run from the Actual BW system cube.
2) The Planning Book Extractor data is loaded directly to a cube within the Actual BW system.
We do these data loads during evening hours once in a day.

Hi GK,
What I have normally seen is:
1) Data would be extracted from APO Planning Area to APO Cube (FOR BACKUP purpose). Weekly or monthly, depending on how much data change you expect, or how critical it is for business. Backups are mostly monthly for DP.
2) Data extracted from APO planning area directly to DSO of staging layer in BW, and then to BW cubes, for reporting.
For DP monthly, SNP daily
You can also use the option 1 that you mentioned below. In this case, the APO cube is the backup cube, while the BW cube is the one that you could use for reporting, and this BW cube gets data from APO cube.
Benefit in this case is that we have to extract data from Planning Area only once. So, planning area is available for jobs/users for more time. However, backup and reporting extraction are getting mixed in this case, so issues in the flow could impact both the backup and the reporting. We have used this scenario recently, and yet to see the full impact.

Best practices for loading swf's

Greetings,
Using CS5 AS2
I'm creating a website in flash (all the files will be in one directory/folder on SharePoint) and want to make sure that what seems to be working fine is best practice.
I have an index.swf with many buttons which will take the user to landing pages/content/other swfs. On these different buttons I have the script...
on (release) {loadMovieNum("name.swf", 0);} I could also do just {loadMovie("name.swf", 0);} ??
The movie transitions nicely to name.swf and on this page I have a button that returns the user to the index.swf...
on (release) {loadMovieNum("index.swf", 0);} Things move back to index.swf nicely and user can chose to go to another landing page.
It looks like I'm on the right track, bc nothing is going awry? but want to check. Am I following best practices for moving from one swf to another within a website?
Thanks for help or confirmation!!

loading into _level0 (and you should use loadMovieNum, not loadMovie, when loading into a level) undermines some of the benefits of a flash application: all the assets must load with each display change and the user sees a flash instead of appearing to transition seamlessly from one display to the next.

Best practice for loading config params for web services in BEA

Hello all.
I have deployed a web service using a java class as back end.
I want to read in config values (like init-params for servlets in web.xml). What
is the best practice for doing this in BEA framework? I am not sure how to use
the web.xml file in WAR file since I do not know how the name of the underlying
servlet.
Any useful pointers will be very much appreciated.
Thank you.

It doesnt matter whether the service is invoked as part of your larger process or not, if it is performing any business critical operation then it should be secured.
The idea of SOA / designing services is to have the services available so that it can be orchestrated as part of any other business process.
Today you may have secured your parent services and tomorrow you could come up with a new service which may use one of the existing lower level services.
If all the services are in one Application server you can make the configuration/development environment lot easier by securing them using the Gateway.
Typical probelm with any gateway architecture is that the service is available without any security enforcement when accessed directly.
You can enforce rules at your network layer to allow access to the App server only from Gateway.
When you have the liberty to use OWSM or any other WS-Security products, i would stay away from any extensions. Two things to consider
The next BPEL developer in your project may not be aware of Security extensions
Centralizing Security enforcement will make your development and security operations as loosely coupled and addresses scalability.

Best Practices for Loading Master Data via a Process Chain

Currently, we load attributes, text, and hierarchies before loading the transactional data. We have one meta chain. To load the master data it is taking more than 2 hours. Most of the master data is full loads. We've noticed that a lot of the master data, especially text, has not changed or changed very little since we implemented 18 months ago. Is there a precedence or best practice to follow such as do we remove these processes from the chain? If so, how often should it be run? We would really like to reduce the amount of the master data loading time. Is there any documentation that I can refer to? What are other organizations doing to reduce the amount of time to load master data?
Thanks!
Debby

Hi Debby,
I assume you're loading Master Data from a BI system? The forum here are related to SAP NetWeaver MDM, so maybe you should ask this question in a BI forum?
Nevertheless, if your data isn't changed this much, maybe you could use a delta mechanism for extraction? This would send only the changed records and not all the unchanged all the time. But this depends on your master data and of course on your extractors.
Cheers
Michael

Best Practices for Loading Data in 0SD_C03

Hi, Guru, I want to know which is the best practice to have information about Sales, billing, delivery. I know it has this Datasources.
Sales Order Item Data - 2LIS_11_VAITM
Billing Document Data: Items - 2LIS_13_VDITM
Billing Document Header Data - 2LIS_13_VDHDR
Sales-Shipping: Allocation Item Data - 2LIS_11_V_ITM
Delivery Header Data - 2LIS_12_VCHDR
Delivery Item Data - 2LIS_12_VCITM
Sales Order Header Data - 2LIS_11_VAHDR
Do I have to load all this Datasource to Infocube 0SD_C03 or I have to create copy of 0SD_C03 to mach with each Datasources.

Hi.
    If you just want to statistic the amount or quantity of the sales process,I suppose you to create 3 cubes and then use a multi provider to integrated those 3 cubes you created.for example:
    2LIS_11_VAITM -> ZSD_C01
    2LIS_12_VCITM -> ZSD_C02
    2LIS_13_VDITM -> ZSD_C03
In this scenario,you can enhance the 2lis_12_vcitm and 2lis_13_vditm with sales order data,such as request delivery date etc..and then create a Multiprovider such as ZSD_M01.

Best practice for loading from mysql into oracle?

Hi!
We're planning migrating our software from mysql to oracle. Therefore we need a migration path for moving the customer's data from mysql to oracle. The installation and the data migration/transfer have to run onto different customer's enviroments. So migration ways like installing the oracle gateway and connect for example via ODBC to mysql are no option because the installation process gets more complicated... Also the installation with preconfigured oracle database has to fit on a 4,6 GB dvd...
I would prefer the following:
- spool mysql table data into flat files
- create oracle external tables on the flat files
- load data with insert into from external tables
Are there other "easy" ways of doing migrations or what do you think about the prefered way above?
Thanks
Markus

Hi!
Didn't anyone have this requirement for migrations? I have tested with the mysql select into file clause. Seems to work for simple data types - we're now testing with blobs...

Adding second 5508 Wireless Controller, how to best configure for load balancing and redundancy?

We recently purchased a second 5508 wireless controller (both licensed for 100+ AP's). What is the easiest way to configure and add the second controller so I can split the load between the 2 controllers and provide failover capability? I do not want to run in an active/standby mode since that will effectively cut our AP capacity by half even with both controllers running.
Should I just manually configure the new controller (long and drawn out process to configure all the parameters), backup the current controller configuration and import to the second controller (then change the ip address) or is their an easier way to cause the two controllers to synchronize the configurations?
We are currently running 7.0.240.0 on our active controller and I would rather not upgrade it until we get the new controller online so I can have less downtime and fail AP's between controllers.
What can you recommend?
Jim

I'm assuming then, when I update the software on the controllers I won't be able to choose which controller is primary for an AP anymore and will lose access to the 100 AP licenses (and the capability to have 100 AP's registered, 100 licenses on each Controller).
Read the Deployment Guide. It should mention that you can choose which controller is the "primary" and which one is the "secondary".
If I'm not concerned about quick failover can I still assign a primary and secondary controller for each AP and utilize all 200 AP licenses that are split between the 2 controllers?
You sure can. But this "old school" method is a very expensive method. Why? Because this means that you have two controllers with similar AP licenses. The newer AP SSO means one controller has a full license and the other has only an HA SSO license, which is a lot cheaper.

Best Practices for loading large sets of Data

Just a general question regarding an initial load with a large set of data.
Does it make any sense to use a materialized view to aid with load times for an initial load? Or do I simply let the query run for as long as it takes.
Just looking for advice on what is the common approach here.
Thanks!

1) Data would be extracted from APO Planning Area to APO Cube (FOR BACKUP purpose). Weekly or monthly, depending on how much data change you expect, or how critical it is for business. Backups are mostly monthly for DP.

However, backup and reporting extraction are getting mixed in this case, so issues in the flow could impact both the backup and the reporting.

BPC:NW - Best practices to load Transaction data from ECC to BW

I have a very basic question for loading GL transaction data into BPC for variety of purposes, would be great if you can point me towards best practices/standard ways of making such interfaces.
1. For Planning
When we are doing the planning for cost center expenses and need to make variance reports against the budgets, what would be the source Infocube/DSO for loading the data from ECC via BW, if the application is -
YTD entry mode:
Periodic entry mode:
What difference it makes to use 0FI_GL_12 data source or using 0FIGL_C10 cube or 0FLGL_O14 or 0FIGL_D40 DSOs.
Based on the data entry mode of planning application, what is the best way to make use of 0balance or debit_credit key figures on the BI side.
2. For consolidation:
Since we need to have trading partner, what are the best practices for loading the actual data from ECC.
What are the typical mappings to be maintained for movement type with flow dimensions.
I have seen multiple threads with different responses but I am looking for the best practices and what scenarios you are using to load such transactions from OLTP system. I will really appreciate if you can provide some functional insight in such scenarios.
Thanks in advance.

Round robin DNS for load balancing between multiple network adapters (Xserve)

I'm attempting to use 'round robin' DNS to load balance between the two ethernet adapters of an Xserve.
Both ethernet adapters are connected to the same LAN and have static IP addresses of 192.168.2.250 and 192.168.2.251.
The DNS zone for the server's local domain/host (macserver.private) has a machine record with both IP addresses (set up in the Lion Server UI).
Having read up on round robin DNS, I would have expected DNS requests for 'macserver.private' to be answered with the two IP addresses ordered at random, achiving my aim of requests being served at random via each ethernet adapter.
However this doesn't seem to be the case. Doing a 'nslookup' from any of the network clients results in the two IP addresses being listed in the same order everytime. And pinging 'macserver.private' only ever results in a response from the same address.
Does anyone know why this is the case? Does Lion Server use a non-standard DNS configuration? Are there any additional settings I need to configure in Lion's DNS server to make adopt a round robin approach to responding to requests?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Be careful what you wish for
Round Robin DNS is rarely the best option for 'load balancing'. At the very least it's subject to caching at various point on the network - even at the client side, once the client looks up the address it will cache that response - this means that subsequent lookups may be served from the client's cache and not refer back to the server. Therfore any given client will always see the same address until the cache expires.
I suspect this is what you're seeing.
You can minimize this by setting a lower TTL on the records. This should result in the response being cached for a shorter period, meaning the client will make more requests to the server, with a higher change of using the 'other' address.
However, you're also going to run into issues with the server having two interfaces/addresses in the same LAN. This isn't recommended.
As Jonathon mentioned, you may be better off just bonding the two interfaces. This will provide an automatic level of dynamic load balancing without the latency of DNS caches, as well as automatic failover should one link fail (as opposed to round robin DNS which will cause 50% of requests to fail until the client cache expires and a new lookup is performed (and, even then, there's still a chance the client will try to use the failed link).

Best Practice for setting bind variable when application loads

I am using JDeveloper 11.1.2.3.
When my application loads, the first unbounded page has a table populated by a named query.
I would like to set the parameter used by the named query when the page loads, to populate the initial data that is displayed.
What is the best practice for a solution to this issue?

Best practices for initial data loads to MDM

Hi,
We need to load more than 300000 vendors from SAP into MDM production repository. Import server might take days to load that much if no error occurs.
Are there any best practices for initial loads to MDM available? What considerations must be made while doing the initial loads.
Harsha

Hello Harsh
With SP05 patch1 there is a file aggregation functionality in the import port. Is is supposed to optimize the import performance.
BTW, give me your mail address and I will send you an idoc packaging paper for MDM.

SAP Best Practice for Document Type./Item category/Acc assignment cat.

What is the Best Practice for the document Type & Item category
I want to use NB - Item category - B & K ( Blanket PO) , D ( Service) and T( Text) .
Is sap recommends to use FO Only for the Blanket Purchase Order.
We want to use service contract (with / without service entry sheet) for all our services.
We want to buy asset for our office equipments .
Which is the best one to use NB or FO ?
Please give me any OSS notes or reference for this
Thanks
Nick

Thank you very much for your response.
I hope I can provide some clarity on how the accounting needs to be handle per FERC Regulations. The G/L balance on the utility that is selling the assets will be in the following accounts (standard accounts across all FERC Regulated Utilities):
101 - Acquisition Value for the assets
108 - Accumulated Depreciation Value for the assets
For an example, there is Debit $60,000,000 in FERC Account 101 and a credit $30,000,000 in FERC Account 108. When the purchase occurs, the net book value for the asset will be on our G/L in FERC Account 102. Once we have FERC Approval to acquire the plant assets, we will need to enter the Acquisition Value and associated Accumulated Depreciation onto our G/L to FERC Account 101 and FERC Account 108 respectively with an offset to FERC Account 102.
The method that I came up with is to purchase the NBV of the assets to a clearing account. I then set up account assignments that will track the Acquisition Value and respective Accumulated Depreciation for each asset that is being purchased. I load the respective asset values using t-code AS91 and then make an entry to the 2 respective accounts with the offset against the clearing account using t-code OASV. Once my company receives FERC approval, I will transfer the asset to new assets that has the account assignments for FERC Account 101 and FERC Account 108 using t-code ABUMN or FB01.
