Best practice SOD Library in AACG 8.5.1.278

Hi,
We require best practice SOD Library in AACG 8.5.1.278 for EBS R12. I have searched Oracle edelivery but could only find library for AACG 8.6 . We are using Windows X-64 platform.
Can someone provide a download for the same in English language?
Thanks.
Abhishek Jain

Hi,
The best practice library files will be available in the directory you have downloaded and unzipped the GRC media pack from edelivery. Go to the specific directory in the system / server and select "Content" folder. You can copy the files on to your desktop and upload the same into AACG.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you need any further assistance.
Best Regards,

SOD Library in AACG 8.6

Hi All,
Is the best-practice SOD Library pre-loaded during installation of AACG 8.6? The xml files in /contents directory contains all laguages except english.
Can someone please guide me through the navigation?
Thanks in advance :-)

Hi,
You are correct. In AACG version 8.6, content in English is missing for EBS and PeopleSoft.
You can download this missing content file from the following note ID.

Best Practice: One Library, Multiple Macs ?

Despite searching, I've yet to find a definitive answer to this one - so any advice would be appreciated....
Having downloaded the trial, I very much like Aperture, but my decision to purchase and continue using it hinges very much on whether or not I can access the same library from multiple machines.
Here is the scenario:
My 'studio' currently has a Quad G5 (soon to be upgraded to a MacPro), with ample Firewire storage, including 2 new 500Gb Western Digital MyBook drives. I now also have a MacBook Pro to allow me to work away from the studio.
So far, I'm using one of the 500Gb drives to hold everything I need - 'work in progress' documents, images etc. etc. with this being SuperDuper! smart updated daily to the second drive. This allows me to take drive 1 away at night and work from home, our go out of the office with the MacBook Pro and have all my media to hand, and 'synchronise' upon return the next day or whenever.
I think what I'd like to be able to do, is set up Aperture on the G5 and get all my images sorted and stored into a new library (out of iPhoto and various Finder folders etc) stored on FW Drive 1 along with the rest of my stuff. This would semi-automatically be backed up to FW Drive 2 as mentioned above.
However, I want to be able to access this library with Aperture on the MacBook Pro when I'm not in the office - will this work? I appreciate that I'll need 2 licenses of Aperture (one for the desktop, and one for the laptop) but my concern is whether or not both copies of Aperture can use the same library....... I wonder if the Aperture prefs would prevent this from working or screw it up completely.
If this ain't gonna work - what other options do I have !?
MacBook Pro 15" Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Not sure this will help but this is what I have decided to do.
System: MacBook Pro and a G5. Storage: 2 Western Digital 160 GB USB 2.0 Passport Portable drives, 1 OWC 160 GB Firewire 800 (for back up of my internal drive on my MacBook Pro), and 5 500GB Western Digital MyBook Pro FW drives (attached to my G5). One Aperture library resides on my MacBook Pro internal and a yearly (like 2006) Aperture resides on 1 500 GB WD MyBook Pro
In studio, I shoot wirelessly and transfer by ftp to the MBP and using Aperture Hot Folder move the images into Aperture to show the client at the end and during the shoot. They are managed, but sadly the files are not named by studio convention. Once the client leaves, I delete the temporary project, and reimport the pictures, renaming the pictures using the studio format and they are managed. At this point the picture reside on my internal drive of my MBP.
I do the majority of the clean up of the images at this point (contrast, exposure, saturation, sharpening, leveling, blemish corrections, etc, keywording). Once done, I export the project to my primary WD Passport drive and then using the old fashion network strategy of walking, take the WD Passport drive to the G5 and import the project in G5 library converting them to referenced files so I have Finder based architecture for all my RAW files.
Once I know the the files are on the G5, I go back to my MBP and convert the managed pictures to referenced pictures in the process moving them off my internal drive and on to the WD 160 USB 2.0 drive in a Finder based architecture. This keeps my library on my MBP pretty small and allows me to carry 160 GB worth of pictures that I can work on at any time or place. [Actually, I will probably pick up a 3rd 160GB Passport soon, like this weekend, so I will be able to carry 320 GB of pictures with me.
Now it gets nasty because I have two sets of pictures, one on my MacBook Pro and one on my G5. Again using old fashion strategies, I decided that the work flow could only go one way... from MBP to G5 and never (or very rarely) the opposite direction. The other nasty is how to deal with changes made after the first transfer of the project to the G5. The vast majority of those changes go through Photoshop and by default they become managed files. So for a particular project when I start to do additional editing, I bring those images into an album (let's say "Selected pictures") for that project and edit away. Once I am really done, I generate a new project (Original project is 070314 and the new project would be 070314 Update) and I drag the album to the new project. The nice thing is the primary pictures remain in the original project when I move the album. I then export Project Update consolidating images and import that into the library on the G5. Lastly, I relocated masters of the managed files to the WD Passport drive. I pay the penalty of having a few replicates of a couple of pictures and the architecture of my G5 library is not identical to my MBP library, but I have all of my primary images plus CS2 changes available to my MBP and my G5.
OK..... my library on my MBP internal is backed up to the OWC drive using Superduper so I always have a current replicate of that library. The library and pictures on the 500 GB WD Mybook Pro are backed up 2-3 times per week to a second 500 GB WD MyBook Pro.
In case my GS fails, I can address the library by simply attaching my MBP to the firewire chain and double click on the library icon. This forces Aperture to open the library on the 500 GB WD Mybook Pro drive. In case my MBP fails, I can boot my MBP or G5 off the OWC drive.
Principles: A one library solution will never work, because eventually, even with referenced images it will become too large for a single drive. So start now with a strategy of smaller libraries structures. I use a yearly system, but others are possible. My yearly system consists of my library plus referenced images on one 500 GB drive plus a second drive to which I back up. If I run out of space, I will buy two more drives, perhaps moving TB drives.
Don't try to store very many images on your internal drive of any computer. Develop a methodology of keeping the images on external (FW or eSATA) drives where capacity can be readily expanded.
Keep your MBP library pristine by regularly moving managed files over to referenced files on a bus powered portable drive.
Make sure you regularly back up both systems.
Hope this helps.

Transfer iphoto library to external harddrive. Best practice?

Need to transfer iphoto library to external harddrive due to space issues. Best practice?

Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

ICloud document library organization best practices?

While I think the iCloud document library could work pretty well if I was iOS-only, I'm still having some trouble organizing something that works with my work and personal Macs as well. A big gap is lack of an iOS version of Preview.
But more importantly, I still keep documents organized by project, and I have a lot of project folders because, well, I have a lot of work! I'm not sure how to best reconcile that with the limitations imposed by iCloud Documents. And I'm not sure how/if Mavericks tags will really help.
The best example I've seen of a best practice to organizing iCloud documents was in this blog post from the makers of iA Writer:
http://ia.net/blog/mountain-lions-new-file-system/
Their folder structure mirrored their workflow rather than projects, which I think could be interesting. They haven't updated it since Mavericks, and I'm curious how they might add tags. Perhaps tags would be used for projects?
Right now, I tend to just keep documents in iCloud that I'm actively working on, since I might need to edit it at home or on my iPad. Once they're complete, I move them to the respective project folder on the Mac. Dropbox keeps the project folders in sync, which makes iCloud Documents feel redundant.
This workflow still feels klugy to me.
Basically, I'm asking, have you effectively incorporated iCloud Documents into your Mac workflow? What are your best practice recommendations?
Thanks.

I have seen projects where they are specific to having DT_, MT_ prefixes and also projects which dont use them.
Even though you dont have a DT_ or MT_ prefix for DT and MT, it would be essential to have AA, OA, OS, IS etc defining a message or service interface that will give you an idea of the mode and direction of the interface.
On a generic term, i strongly feel that the naming conventions suggested by the document is quite enough to accommodate a large number of projects unless something very specific pops up.

Best Practice Building Block Library not accessible in Firefox

Hello SAP Documentation Team,
I've just get aware of the <a href="http://help.sap.com/bp_bblibrary/500/BBlibrary_start.htm">Best Practice Building Block Library</a>. Unfortunately it can't be used with Firefox 1.5.0.4 because of a script error. I see the dropdown lists but when I select for example Country "Germany" nothing happens. In IE it works perfect.

Hope that this will change with later Best Practice releases.

Best Practices for Keeping Library Size Minimal

My library file sizes are getting out of control. I have multiple library's that are now over 3TB in size!
My question is, what are the best practices in keeping these to a manageable size?
I am using FCPX 10.2. I have three camera's (2x Sony Handycam PJ540 and 1x GoPro Hero 4 Black).
When I import my PJ540 videos they are imported as compressed mp4 files. I have always chosen to transcode the videos when I import them. Obviously this is why my library sizes are getting out of hand. How do people deal with this? Do they simply import the videos and choose not to transcode them and only transcode them when they need to work on them? Do they leave the files compressed and work with them that way and then transcoding happens when exporting your final project?
How do you deal with this?
As for getting my existing library sizes down, should I just "show package contents" of my library's and start deleting the transcoded versions or is there a safer way to do this within FCPX?
Thank you in advance for you help.

No. Video isn't compressed like compressing a document. When you compress a document you're just packing the data more tightly. When you compress video you do it basically by throwing information away. Once a video file is compressed, and all video files are heavily compressed in the camera, that's not recoverable. That information is gone. The best you can do is make it into a format that while not deteriorate further as the file is recompressed. Every time you compress a file, especially to heavily compressed formats, more and more information is discarded. The more you do this the worse the image gets. Transcoding converts the media to a high resolution, high data rate format that can be manipulated considerably without loss, and go through multiple generations without loss. You can't go to second generation H.264 MPEG-4 without discernible loss in quality.

Any "best practices" for managing a 1.3TB iPhoto library?

Does anyone have any "best practices" or suggestions for managing and dealing with a large iPhoto library? I currently have a 1.3 TB library. This is made up of anything shot in the past 8 years culminating with the past 2 years being 5D Mark II images. This also includes a big dose of 1080P video shot with the camera. These are only our family photos so I would hate to break up the library into years as that would really hurt a lot of iPhotos "power".
It runs fine in day to day use, but I recently tried to upgrade to iPhoto 11 and it crashes repeatedly during the upgrading library process.
(I have backups, so no worries there.)
I just know with Lion and iPhoto 9 being a bit old my upgrade day is coming and I'm not sure what my path is.

If you have both versions of iPhoto on your Mac then try the following; While running iPhoto 09 create a new, test library and import a few photos into it. Then try to convert that test library with iPhoto 11. If it converts OK then your big library is causing the problem.
If that's the case you can try rebuilding your working library as follows: make a temporary, backup copy of the library and try the following:
launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
select the options identified in the screenshot.
Click to view full size
Once rebuild try converting it to iPhoto 11.
NOTE: if you already have a backup copy of your library you don't need to make the temporary backup copy.

Templates & Library items - best practice

I've been having a bit of a heated discussion about how
templates and library items should be used on medium to large
websites.
I'm of the opinion that you should have 1 template (or as few
as possible) and any differences be managed with Library items.
My colleague's argument is you should have a different
template for each section, so for example 1 for the news, 1 for the
features section (for magazine sites) so that if you have a banner
section wide you change that template, as opposed to the way I'm
used to which would be 1 template with multiple library items in
the editable regions of the template, my reasoning for this is the
large amount of html used for each template (like rollovers) can
become inconsistent when there's more than one template. Like if
you change something site wide you have to remember to change all
of the templates, if you do this with a simple copy past DW can
still make corrupt code if you use multiple templates.
So basically I was wondering if there was a standard or best
practice way of doing this.
Thanks

Your colleague is mistaken IN MY OPINION. I think you are on
the right
track *unless* your section pages are *SO* different in
layout that you
cannot conveniently include all of the
alterations/permutations in a single
template page. Further, my current workflow is to rely
heavily on
server-side includes within template pages, as described here
Templates do make your life much easier. I use the following
scheme....
First, I mentally separate the page layout into three
sections:
1. Stuff that will not change for the life of the site (i.e.,
the basic
structural elements)
2. Stuff that *could* change from time to time (e.g.,
navigation elements,
burst advertisements, section-specific navigation, etc.)
3. Stuff that *will* change from one page to the next
Then I create a template containing all class1 elements. Next
I create
server-side include files containing all class 2 elements and
place them on
the template as needed. Note - some of the class 2 elements
may be
"section-specific elements", and their placement on the
template will be
subject to the next item. Finally, I insert editable regions
to cover the
class 3 items, INCLUDING the section-specific navigation.
This allows me to just cookie-cut the rest of the site. I
estimate that
even for fairly large sites, about 80% of my work goes into
planning and
creating this template file.
For what it's worth, I never use Library items....

Best Backup Practices - One Library vs Individual Project Libraries?

Hello, I'm new to Final Cut Pro X. I have several completed projects that I've been backing up to an external hard drive. However, at first I thought it would be best to create one library on the backup drive and back up my events to this one library. But I've second guessed myself and have been instead creating a new library for each event and then backing up the event to it's own library. This seems less prone to loading issues on large projects and less likely for multiple events to become corrupted if the library gets hosed.
How do you guys manage backups and what do you guys think are the best practices, one backup library or a separate library for each event.

There has been a lot said about the"best practice" for backups.
In reality there is no right or wrong, but having all your backup eggs/Libraries in one basket can be risky.
I use your later suggested method as it suits my style of work.
I prefer to have each Project, Event/s in there own Library. Self contained unit.
When the Project is done the complete Library is copied to another drive, plus if it's important another drive is used for a second backup.
What you have to work through is what gear you have or need to aquire to make your backup method secure and easy to do.
Nowadays you need lots of drive space and thankfully Terabytes are cheaper than ever.

GRC AACG/TCG and CCG control migration best practice.

Is there any best practice documents which illustrates the step by step migration of AACG/TCG and CCG controls from the development instance to the production? Also, how should one take the back up for the same ?
Thanks,
Arka

There are no automated out of the box tools to migrate anything from CCG. In AACG/TCG you can export and import Access Models (includes the Entitlements) and Global Conditions. You will have to manual setup roles, users, path conditions, etc.
You can't clone AACG/TCG or CCG.

New Library? Best Practices?

I have a large photo library within Aperture and I would like to move a handful of projects that I rarely look at onto an external harddrive to lighten the load on my MacBook Pro. I am open to suggestions/best practices. Thank you for your time...

. I have exported a Folder that has multiple Projects in there. Afterwards I removed the hard drive and made some adjustments to a referenced picture (?) and it allowed me to do so?
Then your images probably are not yet referenced but still managed. Did you use "File -> Export -> Master" or "File -> Relocate Master" to turn your images into referenced images? Export will just create copies, you need to relocate the masters.
To check if your images are relocated, you can either turn on Badge overlays, then you will see arrow badges on the referenced images (see: How Badge Overlays Appear in Aperture:
http://documentation.apple.com/en/aperture/usermanual/index.html#chapter=11%26se ction=9%26tasks=true
) or create a smart album with the rule: "File status is: referenced".
This album will collect any referenced file.

Best practices for setting up users on a small office network?

Hello,
I am setting up a small office and am wondering what the best practices/steps are to setup/manage the admin, user logins and sharing privileges for the below setup:
Users: 5 users on new iMacs (x3) and upgraded G4s (x2)
Video Editing Suite: Want to connect a new iMac and a Mac Pro, on an open login (multiple users)
All machines are to be able to connect to the network, peripherals and external hard drive. Also, I would like to setup drop boxes as well to easily share files between the computers (I was thinking of using the external harddrive for this).
Thank you,

Hi,
Thanks for your posting.
When you install AD DS in the hub or staging site, disconnect the installed domain controller, and then ship the computer to the remote site, you are disconnecting a viable domain controller from the replication topology.

Best Practice for Significant Amounts of Data

This is basically a best-practice/concept question and it spans both Xcelsius & Excel functions:
I am working on a dashboard for the US Military to report on some basic financial transactions that happen on bases around the globe. These transactions fall into four categories, so my aggregation is as follows:
Year,Month,Country,Base,Category (data is Transaction Count and Total Amount)
This is a rather high level of aggregation, and it takes about 20 million transactions and aggregates them into about 6000 rows of data for a two year period.
I would like to allow the users to select a Category and a country and see a chart which summarizes transactions for that country ( X-axis for Month, Y-axis Transaction Count or Amount ). I would like each series on this chart to represent a Base.
My problem is that 6000 rows still appears to be too many rows for an Xcelsius dashboard to handle. I have followed the Concatenated Key approach and used SUMIF to populate a matrix with the data for use in the Chart. This matrix would have Bases for row headings (only those within the selected country) and the Column Headings would be Month. The data would be COUNT. (I also need the same matrix with Dollar Amounts as the data).
In Excel this matrix works fine and seems to be very fast. The problem is with Xcelsius. I have imported the Spreadsheet, but have NOT even created the chart yet and Xcelsius is CHOKING (and crashing). I changed Max Rows to 7000 to accommodate the data. I placed a simple combo box and a grid on the Canvas u2013 BUT NO CHART yet u2013 and the dashboard takes forever to generate and is REALLY slow to react to a simple change in the Combo Box.
So, I guess this brings up a few questions:
1)     Am I doing something wrong and did I miss something that would prevent this problem?
2)     If this is standard Xcelsius behavior, what are the Best Practices to solve the problem?
a.     Do I have to create 50 different Data Ranges in order to improve performance (i.e. Each Country-Category would have a separate range)?
b.     Would it even work if it had that many data ranges in it?
c.     Do you aggregate it as a crosstab (Months as Column headings) and insert that crosstabbed data into Excel.
d.     Other ideas that Iu2019m missing?
FYI: These dashboards will be exported to PDF and distributed. They will not be connected to a server or data source.
Any thoughts or guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks,
David
