Biztalk Orchestration to use Parallel shape

I have 3 different DB Binding to views in the Oracle DB. I have to use the 3 views and map them and send the 3 messages to FTP Server. I am not sure whether I should use 3 separate Orchestrations or an Orchestration with parallel shape or just to perform
everything sequentially. I tried using Parallel shape but I am getting error
"parallel activate receive convoy must initialize correlations"
I set Activation to True in all three Receive Shapes at the starting. Can anybody suggest me how to do this. Thanks

If the three process are separate business processes, meaning them have no dependencies among them, you should use three separate Orchestrations.
What you have here, almost, is a Parallel Convoy. It's just missing the Correlation as the error indicates. A Parallel Convoy would be used only when
all three activating messages must be received before any further processing can continue.
If each 'process' can be run on it's own, you should not be using the Parallel Shape.

How to use decide shape in orchestration

hi all,
please guide me to how to use decide shape in orchestration , me requirement is when i got output with records then only i need to process to output folder, otherwise i need to send as a exception.
Thanks
Chinna

Hi Chinna,
To check the existence of records and only process if records exist. You can use the following condition in the Decide shape, which checks for the count of records to be greater than zero. If this statement
return true than process the outbound message as show in the below Orchestration image.
System.Convert.ToInt32(xpath(InputMsg, "count(XpathToRecord)")) != 0
Usage of XPath in decide shape

BizTalk Orchestration with Envelop Schema

I have Flat File Schema in which I set the Allow Message Breakup at Infix Root to true. And also I set the Record Max Occurrence 1. To dispatch the message and send the multiple message to the send port.I used a Receive Pipeline(with flat file disassemble)
and Send Pipeline(XML Transmit) in the receive and sen ports. Till this it worked fine.
The input .txt File at the receive Port
1000 ABC IT 1001 DEF Maintenece 1002 GHI Payroll
The Output was three .xml files like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Record xmlns="http://FlatFilewithEnvelop.FlatFileSchema1">
- <Employee xmlns="">
<ID>1000</ID>
<Name>ABC</Name>
<Dept>IT</Dept>
</Employee>
</Record>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Record xmlns="http://FlatFilewithEnvelop.FlatFileSchema1">
- <Employee xmlns="">
<ID>1001</ID>
<Name>DEF</Name>
<Dept>Maintenece</Dept>
</Employee>
</Record>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Record xmlns="http://FlatFilewithEnvelop.FlatFileSchema1">
- <Employee xmlns="">
<ID>1002</ID>
<Name>GHI</Name>
<Dept>Payroll</Dept>
</Employee>
</Record>
Now I wanted to send only the message with specific ID.So I added a Orchestration in to the Project where I am using decision shape, using the expression. Else I didnt want to send any message to the send Port.
Msg(FlatFilewithEnvelop.PropertySchema.ID) == 1000
If I send the same message in the Receive Port, I am getting four messages in the Send port(shown as below). I dont what was the mistake can anybody tell me what is the mistake.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Record xmlns="http://FlatFilewithEnvelop.FlatFileSchema1">
- <Employee xmlns="">
<ID>1000</ID>
<Name>ABC</Name>
<Dept>IT</Dept>
</Employee>
</Record>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Record xmlns="http://FlatFilewithEnvelop.FlatFileSchema1">
- <Employee xmlns="">
<ID>1000</ID>
<Name>ABC</Name>
<Dept>IT</Dept>
</Employee>
</Record>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Record xmlns="http://FlatFilewithEnvelop.FlatFileSchema1">
- <Employee xmlns="">
<ID>1001</ID>
<Name>DEF</Name>
<Dept>Maintenece</Dept>
</Employee>
</Record>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Record xmlns="http://FlatFilewithEnvelop.FlatFileSchema1">
- <Employee xmlns="">
<ID>1002</ID>
<Name>GHI</Name>
<Dept>Payroll</Dept>
</Employee>
</Record>

The way in you have defined the schema (with batch) when its debatches all the debatches messages will have the same context property which in this case is 1000. So you're getting all the messages from the same batch passed through (true part of) the decide
shape.
Try this in the Decide shape:
xpath(YourReceivedMessage, "boolean(/*[local-name()='Record' and namespace-uri()='http://FlatFilewithEnvelop.FlatFileSchema1']/*[local-name()='Employee' and namespace-uri()='']/*[local-name()='ID' and namespace-uri()='']=1000)")
Replace "YourReceivedMessage" to the Biztalk message type you have set in the Receive shape.

Breaking message processing for perticular message in Biztalk Orchestration.

Hello All,
In above Orchestration I need to break the process for particular incoming message
if the decide condition get TRUE, I also don't want to execute further shapes if condition is TRUE.
I have tried using Terminate shape but it has stopped whole process...!
Please share if anybody have an IDEA.
And also share some links regarding how to break and continue (C#) in BizTalk, if any.
Thanks all

You've noticed that there is no simple "End Shape" so there's two ways to handle this.
Make sure the control flow is such that when the 'break' condition is hit, there are no other Shapes until the end of the Orchestration.
Set a Flag that you can use on further Decide Shapes to skip that logic.

Get the message attribute values in Orchestration without using property promotion

I have the following schema :
Now I want to get the values of FName,LName in orchestration without using any property promotion ?
Prakash

There are also multiple ways of creating the Xpath:
- Full path with namespaces - Rahul Madaan showed this one
- Full path without namespaces:
FName = xpath(InputMessage, "string(/*[local-name()='Root']/*[local-name()='IntField'])");
I think this method is handy if you have multiple schemas with similar structure but the namespace
changes. This is also easier to read and less prone to errors if there are any changes.
If you for example wanted the node #3, then it would be
FName = xpath(InputMessage, "string(/*[local-name()='Root']/*[local-name()='IntField'][3]/*[local-name()='IntSubField'])");
- Jump directly to the field/node you need (this one works for at least xml elements):
xpath(InputMessage, "string(//*[local-name()='IntField'])");
I find this useful when picking up key-values from the message, that can be available only once.
All the examples above are for elements. Since you are picking up value from an attribute, the actual structure
is
varFName = xpath(InputMessage,"string(/*[local-name()='StudentDetails']/*[local-name()='Student']/@*[local-name()='FName'])");
And to learn the rest of the possibilities of Xpath, like count, different types, more detailed selections
of the correct Node (Like example, I want only the one where FNAME = 'MyFName') You can try something like: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/6944.biztalk-orchestrations-xpath-survival-guide.aspx
Also get DanSharp XmlViewer. It will help you quite a bit when fine tuning the xpaths.

Using Parallels with Windows 7 on Bootcamp caused startup logo to disappear

Please let me know whether this is just neurotic or what! Windows 7 RC on Bootcamp partition worked great until I installed a trial copy of Parallels 5.0. Even with Parallels, things seemed fine, but I did not like some behaviors of the program when run under Parallels. Using Parallels, I was leery about the issue that when I clicked on the icon of the E-drive (the Macintosh hard drive), I kept getting the message that it needed to be formatted. Certainly I was able to access the files of the MacIntosh through shared folders, and by dragging files from desktop to desktop, but I saw very little advantage of for running Parallels for what I do with the Windows programs, and I did not want to mess up the Macintosh hard drive by an accidental reformat while using Windows. Also I like the fact that if I start Windows from the Bootcamp partition rather than access it via Parallels, Windows is physically well isolated from MacOSX, I do not really have a chance to delete or mess up the Mac hard drive, and at the same time one can access the Mac OSX disk for files that might be needed by dragging these into the Windows partition. Parallels just seemed unneeded.
Now that I have uninstalled Parallels from the Mac partition and have uninstalled the Parallels programs and tools on the Windows partition, I still have a strange phenomenon that first showed itself when I had first installed the Parallels 5.0 program. Specifically, since the very day that Parallels first was installed and the bootcamp partition was used as the hard drive for Windows run under Parallels, and now even after uninstalling Parallels, the behavior of the Windows flag logo and startup graphics have been changed. A progress bar that previously did not exist before I used Parallels appears on startup, and the moving colored pieces of the Windows flag logo that are supposed to come together as Windows 7 is booted now do not appear during startup.
To my best knowledge, besides uninstalling Parallels programs, I have also removed manually all parts of Parallels that I can find from Windows, and I even excised hidden files and folders of Parallels found on the C drive. I also sought out PRL files from the Windows partition. I uninstalled and physically removed a program called Stardust (?)... Starcolor (?) or something like that, which was installed at the time Parallels was installed. Folders for this had icons of Macintosh programs. Additionally tried to remove all Parallels, PRL, and Stardust items also from the registry, but there are stubborn ones that are in the "pnp Lockdown files", and some others there that also fail to remove elsewhere. The Lockdown files that do not remove are Parallels files involved in booting, and the others are for a PRL 4600 monitor (???). I was able to remove PRL files in the "Driver Store" folder by changing permissions, and then these were able to be removed. I see no settings anywhere for startup logos in msconfig or when I search through programs in the control panel or in the Windows system folder. I have emptied temporary folders, Prefetch, and have used Windows Live Safety Center to remove stray registry files and to fix issues.
Attempts to go back to an old restore point do not work and do not get me back to the Windows 7 installation that i used to have. I reinstalled drivers for Bootcamp from the Snow Leopard disk, and finally I tried to repair the installation (by starting up windows using function keys) with at the same time the Windows 7 RC installation disk available for access of files. The option for repair when started up this way is for repair of a non-starting installation. When this is selected, it seems there is nothing found that needs to be repaired. Thus the startup for Windows still has the same behavior. Maybe I do not know how to repair an installation of Windows, and maybe nothing really needs to be changed back to the former condition. Am I just bothering with something that is just fine but which never will be identical to what it was before Parallels?
The bottom line is that even though things seem to operate fine otherwise, I feel Parallels has somehow adulterated the Windows installation, which I would rather just run as Windows without artifacts from a prior installation that influence it.
Thank you for guiding through whatever I need or need not do with these issues.

How do i use parallel compression for 4 drum tracks in Logic pro 7.2.3 Please

how do i use parallel compression for 4 drum tracks in Logic pro 7.2.3 Please. my version is 7.2.3 and my son did his drums on 4 tracks. 2 OH's 1 Kick and 1 Snare. Were confused because we cant figure out how to do parallel compression on the older logic version 7.2.3?

I can't remember when the Aux tracks became the new buss tracks, so I'll spell this out using busses.
The way I do it, is I assign all my drum tracks to a buss, say buss 1.
Then, on buss 2, I assign it's INPUT to buss 1.
So buss 1 (all the drums) are feeding into buss 2 simultaneously.
Put a compressor on buss 2, turn the fader down all the way, then as the track is playing, bring buss 2's fader up slowly, until you hear the effect you're after.
You could also do this using sends on the 4 drum tracks, set to feed the buss with the compressor on it.
I hope I haven't forgotten anything particular to that version of Logic. See if this helps...

How to use parallel sequence for split the operation qty. urgent or other o

PP guru
My scenario is as follows.
I ve one material supposexyz.
For that material I' ve created bom, routing.
In routing I' ve mention only one operation. 0010.
Now I' ve the production order of 1000 kg.
I want to use two work centers to run this production order. ( e.g.work center a and b)
In routing I used work center a.
In short I want split that operation.
So what I ve to do or use parallel sequence and how???
or else is there any other option to split the order to two or more machines/work center?
Pls explain me in brief.
Regards,
Ram

Hi,
If you want to carry the production with two different work centers , first you need to split the operation qty.
For this in the order type dependent parameters OPL8
in the controlling tab page enable the indicator Cost collector
and set the default rule as PP2.
Create a Product cost collector with KKF6N.
   Now in the production order , select the operation and choose functions--->>> split.
   Now enter the operation split quantity and execute.
   Now in MD04 you can see two production order.
   In the second production order change the work center in the operation overview as desired and save.
Regards,
nandha

Using parallels with multiple OS partitions

Hello
i have OSX, XP and Vista on my macbook pro.
is it possible to use parallels or fusion to access these while in OSX. or can you only do this with a single bootcamp OS installation?

Sharing a database over 2 accounts on one computer using Parallels

Hello,
We recently upgraded our computers at work (in a college library) to the Intel iMac. Prior to this, several of us had to use PC's as well, as some software wouldn't run on the Mac.
I have bindery software (provided by our commercial binder), that has now been successfully installed on my new Intel iMac (with Parallels installed). I have had this job for over 5 years, and have been the only person who uses the bindery software/database. Unfortunately, my boss would like to be able to access the software/database, just incase I am out for 6 months (his concern, not mine), so he wants me to set-up a separate account on my iMac so that he is able to access the bindery software/database.
Is there a way to "share" the database between the two accounts, using Parallels?
Thanks,
Ken

Probably, but if I were you, I would consult the company who produces that bindery software to see what they recommend. I assume this is on Windows, which means its outside the scope of this discussion forum.

Photoshop CS: using a shape to adjust a single part of an image

I have a pic with a palm tree being lit by a string of christmas lights. I have adjusted the image to may taste but the area where the lights are have too much light.
I saw a tutorial about 4 months ago where the instructor used a shape to modify a clock on a wall. As my memory serves me in a spotted fashion. He simple drug a circle around the clock and adjusted the luma and choma in the clock.
can anyone give me a walkthru of how this is done?
Photoshop CS / Mac 10.5.6 / Intell 3.0 Quadcore

You need to read up on selections and masks. There are many excellent video tutorials out there, which you can find through Google of course.
Basically you want to create a selection of the area you want to modify and turn it into a mask.

That combination is known to cause a multitude of issues, and that's why it's not supported by Adobe. :/

Using Parallels, would like to use bootcamp instead, but I don't know how?

Hi guys.
I have a MBP 15" late 2011 ( the one before retina display model) os x 10.7.5, upgraded RAM to 16GB.
I've installed parallels desktop 7 and used Windows 7 through it.
I am aware that using parallel windows means the RAM and processing power is share between 2 os... am I right?
I would like to play some games that I can only play on Windows, and I guess using bootcamp will be better, because processing power is not shared.
In this case, how do I 'install' my Windows on bootcamp?
I know my MBP has bootcamp pre-installed, all I wonder is would installing it on parallels first affect my switch to bootcamp.
I've heard of some case...
People used bootcamp at the beginning, and switched to use parallels, that means the parallel windows is still from bootcamp partition.
What about my case... parallels first and then bootcamp (never activate bootcamp until now) Do i need to somehow reinstall my windows to bootcamp partition??
Sorry for my poor English

Parallels and VMware Fusion allows you to convert your Boot Camp volume into a virtual machine, so you can run OS X and the Windows copy you have in the Boot Camp volume at the same time. However, in your case, everything is more difficult, because you have to install Windows onto the Boot Camp volume.
First, make a backup of your data with Time Machine or Carbon Copy Cloner. You wouldn't be the first one that deletes the OS X volume by mistake and lose everything.
Then, open  > Software Update, and install all the updates. After that, open "Boot Camp Assistant", in /Applications/Utilities) and follow its steps to install Windows. Make sure you tick the option to download the Windows support software, and you will need a DVD or USB drive to burn it. When it finishes, your computer will restart from the Windows DVD, and follow these steps > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_10.7.pdf

After installing Mountain Lion two drives on my network cannot be accessed. I am using Parallels to utilize QuickBooks ERP. The programs and data are on the drives that I can no longer access. Suggestions?

After installing Mountain Lion on my Mac Book Pro, I can no longer access two shared drives. Diagostics cannot solve the problem. I am using Parallels to run Qucikbooks ERP on these shared drives. How do I get my Mac to see these drives and access them?

Don't know what to tell you, but I also have an AEBS-Gen5 with a MBP Retina and Mac Mini using WiFi. Both are running Mountain Lion and I don't have any WiFi connection issues. Two iPhones in the household use WiFi with no issues along with a printer and 2 Windows 7 laptops.
First thing I would try is to shutdown all computers connected to the AEBS. Then power off the AEBS and finally the cable/DSL modem. Then reverse the order and power on the cable modem, wait for all the lights to be solid, power on the AEBS, wait for the light to show solid green; then power up a computer that uses WiFi.
If the above doesn't work, you might try repairing permissions via Disk Utility. If that doesn't help maybe a PRAM reset would work.

Using parallels for windows xp on my macbook

Hello. I want to take online GIS classes from ERSI this winter and am thinking about buying parallels to run their software (which is only supported by windows xp or vista). I am basically pretty computer illiterate and am not really sure about the most cost efficient way of setting this up. I know I have to buy parallels (or bootcamp, which is better for this case?), then buy the windows software, then install and hope for no hiccups the GIS training software (which is not supported by the ERSI online team when run on a mac). Has anybody gone through this specific or related procedure before and what kind of results did you have? Is my plan sound? With my tiger operating system do I still have to buy bootcamp, is that better to use than parallels? I don't have any other plans to use windows except maybe to send photos through my hotmail account. I will greatly appreciate any advice and/or direction you can provide. Thank you,
Dave

Hi,
I use Parallels with Windows XP and it runs just fine. I need Windows for one application that is not any where to be found for Macintosh. Follow the Parallels directions for installation and you should have any problems. To use Bootcamp you would need to be running Leopard.
