BI DSO Processing Question

We are upgrading to BI 7.0 and have an issue with activating some of our DSO (ODS) objects. We currenlty are using the default parameters through transaction RSODSO_SETTINGS:
Activation: Max Package size 20000 max wait time 300
SID generation Max Package size 20000 max wait time 600
Rollback max wait time 600
the settings for parallel processing are 3 process in the background
there any recommendations/documentation on these settings?
thanks

Check the processes available for you in SM50 as per the RSODSO_SETTINGS current config.

  • WAAS Application Requests - Process Question

    Non Technical Process Question
    We all have forms we have our users complete when a firewall rule or change is needed.  You may even have a similiar documents for when load balancers or DNS changes are required.  Does anyone have document they can share that outlines what pieces of information are needed for intergrating applications into WAAS?  What about ongoing changes?
    Source, destination and TCP port information is really a very small portion of the what needed to maintain a clean a defined methodolgy within the WAAS manager.  Does anyone have an example or can describe how you collect the initial information to set up WAAS but how do you keep track of changes that may be needed as the application charaterics change or the server farm expands horizontally?
    Thanks - Sam

    Sam,
    the general answer for detailed information on how to configure WAAS for certain applications is described here:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/app_ntwk_services/waas/waas/v501/configuration/guide/policy.html
    In general, WAAS comes preconfigured for the most widly used applications in the industry.
    In order to understand, which configuration is necessary for a new application, one needs to understand the basic options WAAS offers.
    These are two options:
    1) Use an Application Optimizer (AO) if you need some dedicated protocol know how. ( e.g. (e)MAPI, CIFS, SSL, HTTP, ICA, to name some)
    2) Generic TCP traffic is optimized using TCP Flow Optimization (TFO), Data Redundancy Elemination (DRE) and Lempe Liv (LZ) compression.
    The in terms of processes, the question is:
    1) Is there a policy preconfigured for the new application?
         a) yes
              If an AO is used, does the AO need configuration? ( example: SSL AO requires certificates)
              Do we have specialities which require further fine tuning? ( Answer is mostly: no, Example: non-standard ports)
         b) no
              You define what you need for the application based on the protocol characteristics.
              If you have defined these characteristics you can choose one of the AOs, or define which of the "generic" options fit the traffic. For example, for traffic that is already compressed, it does not much benefit from LZ, so choosing only TFO and DRE. Another example is traffic that has not much of dublicate data, perhaps it does not benefit a lot from DRE, so you configure TFO only.
    Does that answer your question?
    Thanks,
    chris

  • Question related to my previous "background process" question.

    Hello Folks:
    Can I start a "Notification Service Subscriber" process through the
    normal startup procedure for other servers---i.e. by adding it to the
    config(ubb) file. If so, can I implement the background process as two
    different CORBA servers calling each other asynchronously to accomplish
    the work. Please let me know if there is any other way to accomplish
    what I have stated in the "background process" question.

  • General Ledger - Revaluation/Translation Process Question

    Application Release Version: 11.5.10.2
    MRC: Not turned on for new entities. (See details below)
    My customer has been using oracle from around 2001 and went through a process at the end of 2008 to setup a new chart of accounts and approx 6 different companies with multiple entities for each across different functional currencies. (The initial setup for these entities was done prior to my joining and I have no supporting documentation on what decisions were made and why.)
    Setup info:
    Set of Books - 'Cumulative Translation Adjustment Account' defined as an 'Owners Equity Account'.
    Revaluation - Gains and Loss accounts using the same account number as 'Cumulative Translation Adjustment Account'. Accounts being revalued are accounts that have outstanding Payables and Receivables balances as well
    as our intercompany accounts that have outstanding balances. (Balances that need to be payed or received.)
    Question:
    My question refers to the revaluation and translation process for the new entites that have a different functional currency from the reporting currency. (All under the same chart of accounts structure.)
    For instance entity1 - Functional Currency = 'CAD' and has 'USD' transactions.
    I understand that at the period end we need to revalue the 'USD' transactions to there 'Current' worth in 'CAD' as exchange rates will fluctuate. But shouldn't the 'Difference', revaluation amounts, be pushed to the Unrealised FX Gains/Loss account, not the 'Cumulative Translation Adjustment Account'. (I think this is normally only used when a company is using MRC?)
    This obviously affects whether the period balance appears on the Balance Sheet or Income Statement report for the consolidated monthly report.
    Also should these 'Revaluation' journals ever be reversed or just left to accumulate?
    Then looking at the 'Translation' process, if value is pushed to the 'Cumulative Translation Adjustment Account' then the balance is translated based on the 'Average' period rate as the account is an 'Owners Equity Account', but this seems wrong for the 'Revaluation' balance to be converted at another rate?
    Any help on this subject will be greatly appreciated.

    Firstly, why would there be any difference between the total of customer/vendor sub-ledger balances and the balance on the reconciliation account(s)?  The posting to the reconciliation account is happening automatically right, when you are posting to a customer/vendor (basing on the reconciliation account assigned in the customer/vendor master)?  And system would not allow direct postings to reconciliation accounts, which eliminates the threat of reconciliation GL account going out of balance as compared to the sub-ledger accounts.
    However, you can run FBL3N or FS10N for the reconciliation account(s) and match it with the total balance on all customers/vendors using transaction FBL5N/FBL1N.

  • Snow Leopard Time Machine process question/possible problem

    For starters I want to say that I am not dealing with my own machine, but a friend's, so there's some missing information. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Ok, so my best friend bought a 15" MBP thru me during my short time as an Apple retail employee, which is how I got called in to "fix" it, although I'm still better with PCs than Macs. Anyway, it was purchased around December 2010, has at least Snow Leopard, intel i5 processor, 500 GB HD, not sure if 5000 or 7200 rpm, 4GB RAM. A day or so ago it started acting "weird" he says, like when closing google chrome the color wheel spun forever and took forever to close, and from then on every program acted the same; took forever to open and close. He said it was like there was some major process running in the background that was just using up all of the RAM and processor, leaving him with nothing to use for anything else. He shut it down and restarted it several times, but it acted the same. Sometimes he'd even have to force power it down. He then decided to do a wipe and restore with Time Machine. Thanks to google images I know for sure that he went thru all the bs with selecting what exactly to do, what restore to use, and where to install it, and that the transfer screen with the finder-to-fnder-like image and the progress bar appeared and completed fully before it automatically restarted itself. White screen with Apple logo appeared, he heard the boot up chime/BONG/WALL-E noise before the spinner wheel came up under the logo, which is where it stands now.
    The only question/concern is that it has been here for 10 hours, literally. Now the spinner is STILL spinning, that has not frozen that either of us are aware of, but both of us being so new to Macs we are completely unsure if it's ok. I did some online research and I've seen where people have had their macs freeze on boot up, but they usually don't chime; or it took like 14 hours to do the entire restore process, but they were significantly older and slower machines. Like I said, this could be status quo for this process, but I honestly do not know that. Feel free to just say "depending on the amount it's restoring, it could very well take that long, be patient" if that's the honest truth. I'm looking for verification.
    PS - his time machine backup is on an external USB hard drive, which is plugged in, and it's from November as he forgets to plug it in, but he has like photoshop and aperture, takes lots of pictures (yes we know those since November are gone), and honestly is on his MBP so much the only way I can think to describe it is that he literally uses it like a cheap whore.
    Thank you all!

    delete all drivers using the correct un-indtstall software, re-instalthe mac softeware and in stalll. GO TO SYSTEM PREFS, and select the printer and add the printer to the left side for install
    , then select that partictular printer.

  • Exception Processing Question -Reply

    I don't use Forte (yet--that's why I joined the mailing list), but since your
    question is a generic "engineering practices" question, I'll chime in. I do
    use exceptions both in C++ in Delphi, and have developed some opinions
    about how to use them:
    - Use exceptions for handling "behavior unexpected in the normal course
    of your algorithm". In other words, instead of returning error codes
    when something goes wrong, throw an exception.
    One example of this is in a parser: if you get an illegal token, just throw
    an exception.
    - When you need to make a choice based on a return status, don't throw
    an exception. In the parser example, if you get token 'A', you need to do
    one thing and if you get token 'B' you need to do another.
    - There's a fine distinction between "handling an error" and "making a
    choice", and there are cases where you could argue one way or the
    other. I'd say that an error throws an exception when it would normally
    terminate the normal flow of execution. For example, "out of memory" or
    "illegal token".
    - Catch exceptions at "high level" process start/end points, or where it is
    required to clean up resources held and rethrow.
    - Don't catch exceptions in every single method--it defeats the purpose.
    User Interfaces:
    - If your user-interface dictates a logical place to unwind no further,
    catch exceptions there. For example: In the Windows world most apps
    are a window with a menu. If you pull down and pick a menu item to
    execute a command, and that command throws an exception, the
    exception should be caught, a modal message box indicating the error
    should be presented, and then when the user clicks "ok", the program
    returns to its normal waiting state with the window intact.
    - If you have a modal dialog up, throwing an exception should either stop
    at the dialog's event loop or take the dialog down with it.
    I'd say that on-screen data validation should NOT use exceptions
    because "user typing invalid data" is expected behavior for a UI.
    Besides, the UI designer should be smart enough to deal with giving you
    a good model for data validation. OTOH, if you take the data out of the
    dialog and then pass the information as parameters to a function, and
    that function can't handle one of the parameter values, it should throw an
    exception.
    Nevertheless, if your dialog runs out of memory for some reason, it
    should throw an exception and the dialog should come down.
    Hope this helps.

    I have a toss up question for 50 points -
    We have finished the first phase of our project and have place
    exception processing in the places where we saw exceptions could be
    raise. But what about those other exceptional exceptions?
    Is this just good programming practice to have a high level generic
    exception handler (and what should it really do??) or is it critical.
    In addition, when handling data validation on specific widgets on a
    screen (e.g. the account number entered must be one of the existing
    10,000 valid ones), should this be handled via exception processing or
    should it just be handled with code in the event loop?
    Any opinions - please I don't want to hear the Forte Party line.
    I would like to hear opinions based upon real experience.

    if you don't the exception will still happen except without
    your normal graceful (or standard) approach manner. I think it is good programming
    practice to trap on the ones you think can possible occur if they require
    something different in how they react. Otherwise, use of GenericException
    with a proper response is called for.

    Hi,
    Sory, but I'm still not sure, how ADF comunicates with BPM (I know that it uses EJB services and hwtaskflow.xml). But a still don't have an answers for follwowing questions:
    1) I know ADF quite good. Having method in data controls (in our case getTaskDetails()) we need to invoke it somehow. I don't see anywher invokation of this method.
    2) In generated task flow there is some managed beans and params - what is role of them ? Having over 50 task flows , do I need it in all of them. Where can I find description of those beans and params
    3) In our approach we use BPM , ADF RC for UI and Business Components to persist data into database. Only data from payload we need is ID of master-level row. My question is - do I have to generate data controls for all human task ?. In my my opinion it should be only one communication point between BPM and ADF but not the same for all pair human task --> task flow.
    All infomation I need from BPM is:
    - task ID
    - task flow name (to open apriopriate tab in my application)
    - available outcomes
    - to know is BPM operation is enabled

  • OLAP Universe creation process questions and proposals

    We have created an OLAP universe based on a BW-Query. The automatical creation of the OLAP universe does not produce a satisfying result.
    We are working with the latest available releases (BOE XI 3.1 SP2 and SAP Integration KIT SP2, SAP BI 7 EHP1).
    We have detected that all dimension objects store the name instead of the key field.
    Example:
    Customer Dimension Object (L01 Customer) = Customer Name
    Customer Key Detail Object (L01 Customer Key) = Customer Number
    Customer Name Detail Object (L01 Customer Name) = Customer Name
    This is not usable for end user because of the following reasons:
    1. The detail objects can not be used for merge dimensions, so it is not possible to merge on the supplier number.
    2. If you filter on the dimension object you will only see the text in the list of values (LOV) and it is not possible to edit the list of values in the universe to add the supplier number to the LOV as it is possible in relational universes
    3. If the user select the detail object always the dimension object in inserted into the report query
    4. The "Business Explorer" general setting "Display" of an InfoObject has no effect on the OLAP universe dimension object. If you change it to key always the text is shown. Even if you change the "ValueDisplay as" in the underlying BW Query to "key" is has no effect.
    5. The renaming of the L01 object to blank is not possible. You need to rename to " " and then remove on each object the blank.
    So we need to modify manually every universe to change the "detail key object" to a "dimension object" and the "detail name object" to reference the new "dimension object" with the key. This manual process has a huge work effort in time. Is there a better solution or enhancements planned in the next releases?
    Additionally there should be an option to disable the automatic creation of each characteristic as a subclass in the universe. A wizard should ask if a subclass should be created or not for each characteristic. Currently there are to many subclasses generated which were mostly not needed.

    Hi,
    First of all I would say u are lucky to start with SP2. Because whatever modifications you do in Universe those are retained.
    We had a big trouble in using BOXIR3.1 FP1.7.
    Anyways.. Back to your Questions and My asnwers for those:
    1. The detail objects can not be used for merge dimensions, so it is not possible to merge on the supplier number.
    Ans: True, Dimension object always shows Short text values by default. but if you can create the logic at SAP BI query level to map short text with keys then your problem will be solved.
    2. If you filter on the dimension object you will only see the text in the list of values (LOV) and it is not possible to edit the list of values in the universe to add the supplier number to the LOV as it is possible in relational universes.
    Ans: True u cannt edit LOV, but alternate solution to it is create the variable in SAP BI Query, that will appear as prompt in universe which will display the List of values with Key as well as Description.
    3. If the user select the detail object always the dimension object in inserted into the report query.
    Ans: Logically its correct, because Detail object is always associated with Dimension. Buit if you dont want that dimension in query you can remove that dimension by dragging back.
    4. The "Business Explorer" general setting "Display" of an InfoObject has no effect on the OLAP universe dimension object. If you change it to key always the text is shown. Even if you change the "ValueDisplay as" in the underlying BW Query to "key" is has no effect.
    Ans: In Query designer even if you ValueDisplay as "Key", but at Object level  if there is Text and Key associated for perticulat Infoobject, then so by default the dimension will show the Text and there will be seperate Detail object in universe for Key.
    5. The renaming of the L01 object to blank is not possible. You need to rename to " " and then remove on each object the blank.
    Ans: Yes this is a big trouble.

  • TR Background processing question

    To All
    We currently receipt stock in MIGO and get a GR slip. Then we use LB10 to putaway using TO in Foreground. My question is what config do I need to set up to use TC in Background? What paperwork is generated to advise staff where to put stock if TO in Background is used? Is there a 'putaway' list when the background processing is selected.
    We currently have no other warehouse stock strategies. (No fixed bin management, no capacity check, etc)
    We currently use the material master default bin (which is printed on the GR slip) to suggest the putaway location.
    I want to get away from using TO in foreground to speed up putaway processing
    Regards
    Darren

    Darren,
    TO or TC or both ?
    For immediate TO creation:
    In config.
    LE \ WM \ Interfaces \ IM \ Define Movement Types
    In the second table, according to the parameters you want e.g. Movement Type, set 'A' in the 'Immediate' column
    Alternatively consider background generation (by prog. RLAUTA10) by setting per movement type.
    In config.
    LE \ WM \ Activities \ Transfers \ Set up Autom. TO creation

  • Distributed Audio Processing Question

    This is probably a dumb question, but would there be any value in using a Mac Mini (or multiple Mini's using a switch) for Distributed Audio Processing? I tend to favor complex reverbs across my mixes and will be using some software instruments and would like to reduce/prevent the processor hit as I'm on a 2.4GHz iMac. I'm running 4 gigs of RAM so memory shouldn't be an issue.
    Yeah, I'm a Logic noob, so please be kind if this is a moronic idea :-p

    Hi.
    Interessting Question. The macmini must have an intel core cpu and gigabit ethernet. The older models don't fit the specs for Logics QNode wich is needed, to let the iMac do distributed audio processing on the macmini. Additionally you have to connect the two macs with a gigabit network.
    http://www.apple.com/logicstudio/logicpro/specs.html
    But i think there are better ways to fit your audio-needs. If you haven't bought the minis yet, buy an MacPro for this work and if this machine even aren't fast enough, then let the iMac do the distributed audio processing.
    Additionally power can added to the MP with an Universal Audio DSP-Card.
    http://www.uaudio.com/products/uad-dsp_menu.html
    I don't know how your workflow looks like. If you don't need the effects at the same time you record the virtual instruments, then do all the processing after the recording. This way should be the cheapest and best.

  • Batch Processing Questions

    I'm scanning a large volume of slides. I'd like to be able to batch process them for basic adjustments. I've found in most cases that opening the scans, adding a curves layer, and hitting the auto button does a good job initially of color restoration. I've been able to add an action and do that through batch processing except for one issue.
    ISSUE -- When I check 'Override Action "Save as" Commands' the File Naming section remains grayed out. Thus I don't have the option to specify file naming when I run a batch.
    QUESTION -- It appears that when I check "Suppress Color Profile Warnings" the batch continues using the color space of the image to be processed, not the working color space. That is fine for what I'm doing now. However if I wanted to use the working color space, would I simply include a recorded step in the action to convert the color profile to the working profile?
    Dale

    I'm not sure why those fields would still be grayed-out.  You may need an actual Save As command in the action to see the file naming section, I'm not sure.  Notably Photoshop issues this message upon checking the [ ] Override Action "Save As" Commands box:
    Regarding your question on conversion...  You have it right but there's one clarification needed:  You cannot record an action to convert to the "working profile" per se, you will have to pick an actual profile from the list (e.g., sRGB IEC61966-2.1), and that profile name will be stored in the action:

  • IDSM-2 upgrade process questions.

    Hello,
    I started a new job and have been tasked with looking into what we can do with the IDSM-2 module we have in our 6509. The company has not been using the module so it hasn't been updating in a few years. I do not have a current license so I know I cannot install new signature updates, but what I would like to do is upgrade the software to version 7.0(5a)E4. Once I have it upgraded I would like to configure it in our environment and then see about getting a signature license.
    I have a few questions regarding the upgrade process, and could use some assistance.
    First the IDSM is currently running version 5.1(3)S256.0. From what I have read I don't believe I can go directly to 7.0(5a)E4 so my Planned Upgrade Path is: 5.1(3)S256.0 -> 5.1(8)E3 -> 7.0(5a)E4.
    Am I able to upgrade this way or is there another recommended way that I should do this upgrade?
    The files I have for this are below, will they be enough or am I missing any?
    Do I apply them in the order listed?
    Can I apply all of these files from the IDM GUI?
    IPS-K9-5.1-8-E3.pkg
    IPS-engine-E3-req-5.1-8.pkg <--- Is this included in the above file?
    IPS-K9-r-1.1-a-5.1-8-E3.pkg
    IPS-K9-7.0-5a-E4.pkg
    IPS-K9-r-1.1-a-7.0-5a-E4.pkg
    I plan on backing up my configuration first just in case, but should this process have any affect on the configuration?
    I also saw that the upgrade will convert the configuration, so should I back it up a second time between the 5.1(8)E3 and 7.0(5a)E4 step?
    Will there be any effect on network traffic or downtime during this process?
    Is there any thing else I need to be aware of or that I'm missing?
    Thanks in advance,
    Will

    Hi Will. Since you indicated that this sensor has not been in-use, it would be quickest/easiest to simply re-image it directly to the desired version (7.0(5a)E4). Additional benefits of doing this are that the sensor's filesystem will be created clean, OS/binaries cleanly installed, no potential config conversion issues, etc.
    Step-by-step instructions for doing this can be found here.
    And, the System Recovery Image file you will need ('IPS-IDSM2-K9-sys-1.1-a-7.0-5a-E4.bin.gz') can be downloaded here.
    Will there be any effect on network traffic or downtime during this process?
    That depends on whether the sensor is configured in Promiscuous Mode or Inline [VLAN Pair] Mode. You can determine this from the Catalyst config. If the sensor is installed in Inline [VLAN Pair] Mode, then certainly the re-image (and even just upgrade) could be traffic-impacting (if there is no alternative/backup path for traffic to take), as in both scenarios, the sensor is rebooted and not available for ~10 minutes (during which time, it would not be forwarding traffic (if it were installed Inline)). Additionally, since re-imaging results in a clean/default config, if the sensor were configured Inline, that portion of the config would have to be re-input post-reimage so that the sensor would know to forward traffic accordingly again. Details about the modes can be found here.

  • Creating a moasic-batch processing question?

    I 'volunteered' help to do a project for my daughter. For an
    elementary school fundraiser, she wants to create four moasics -- 11X17 images --
    one for each of four classes, with an 'Egyptian' theme -- at least one of the
    images being of the pyramids of Giza.
    The plan is this: several of the mommies will take their digital cameras to
    school this week, and take photos of the children, and then let the children
    snap away fill up the rest of the memory card. Assuming there are five
    mommies, and that each provides a hundred photos -- they're going to put them
    on CD's -- I could wind up with only 500 photos, and these moasic apps need
    tons more images.
    My 'plan', such as it is, is to take these photos and duplicate them as many
    times as necessary, and then change the color cast of some of the different
    batches, e.g. -- some with a 'blue' cast, some with a 'sand colored' cast, etc.
    The idea is, MacOSaiX will choose the blue for the sky, the sand for the sand,
    etc.
    Questions: Given a big enough HD, and using PSE 4, can I easily duplicate
    batches of the originals photos-- say 50 or a 100 at a time? Is there a
    'batch' commend/process that would let me do that?
    Ditto, changing the color -- can I apply the same color change to a large batch
    of photos at the same time?
    The PSE 4 Help seems to say I can 'batch process' all the files in selected
    folders, but it doesn't mention duplicating all the images in the folder. It
    does _seem to say that I could do the automatic 'color' adjustment.
    Any help/suggestions to 'improve' this plan would be most appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Hal

    That is what i ended up doing - basically batching up 100 items and then doing a service callout until all the items are processed (inside a pipeline pair). In this case I guess this works fine, but if this were a web service proxy instead of a MFL file proxy service it seems like the pattern is inefficient - I would do service callouts in the for each and aggregate the responses, then I'd need to call a service at the end (via a route) just to create a response (so it doesn't just echo the original request back). Or is there a better way?
