Remove blank spaces in excel output file

it is a BOM report and the output is into a excel file.
problem with the excel file output is : i gives blank spaces sometimes after the number and sometimes before the number...
so, how can i remove those blank spaces for the values.
ive nearly 15 columns having values in each column.
so, how to get rid of blank spaces for these values in the columns in the xls file. is there any fn..module or a command that i can put in the code.

Hi,
above mentioned FM canbe used to eliminate extra zeros in char field. eg. material number.
MATNR will contain 18 char.-000000000045678925.
toget only 45678925 F.M -conversion exit can be used.
for ur reuirement use SHIFT statement only.

Disk space issue with log files

I noticed that I was running out of disk space, so I downloaded OmniDiskSweeper and ran it. Turns out that the main culprit is log files. They are located in /private/var/log/asl. However, OmniDiskSweeper won't let me delete them (it doesn't give an error message or anything--it just won't delete the files). What are these .asl files and how can I delete them? I cannot see them when I open up the Finder, so I assume they are hidden. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks!

Those log files are created by the "Apple System Log" process. The first thing I'd do is to use the Console utility to examine what's in them to see if there's anything obvious that should be fixed. In Console, open the "/var/log" item on the left, open the "asl" item, then select the first item in the list. You'll see a lot of gibberish, but you'll also see some text.
To navigate to those files in the Finder, use the menu item Go -> Go to Folder and type "/var/log/asl" (without the quotes) in the field, and click "Go".

How to calculate storage space for archive log files and database backups?

Hi all,
I have a 1.8 terabyte Oracle 9i database and need to plan for how much additional disk space I will need to perform nightly backups and for archivelog files. Is there a script or formula available that can help me estimate how much required disk space I will need to hold a days worth of archived logs as well as a nightly export dump file and a full hot RMAN backup on disk?
Thanks!

I'm not sure how to estimate the size of your backups, especially if you use incrementals. However, the space required for archive logs will be equal to the amount of REDO your DB generates. I would count the number of log switches per day with a query like the following:
select trunc(first_time), count(*)
from v$log_history
group by trunc(first_time)
I would then take the average and multiply this count by the size of your redo log files (assuming they are all the same size).

How do I delete blank space at end of file?

I am absolutely new at this and am poking around without getting an answer to what seems like a simple question. I imported a 45-second MIDI file created in Finale without a problem, but after the "block" numbered 36 along the top of the Arrange window there are a seemingly endless number of blank "blocks" and I cannot figure out how to delete them. I don't seem to be able to select them because there isn't any audio there. What am I missing?

If it is lots of separate regions....
Why don't you simply delete the extra regions... and/or set total number of bars you want in the project using the Project End setting in the Display Area
See this page in the help manual for more info
http://help.apple.com/logicpro/mac/9.1.6/en/logicpro/usermanual/index.html#chapt er=5%26section=8%26hash=apple_ref:doc:uid:TempBookID-ReplacedWhenAssociatingWith MessierRevision-43984TRP_SC_1107-2028254
Display Area
This area of the Transport bar primarily informs you of the playhead and locator positions, but can also be used to navigate through the project.
Positions (SMPTE/Bar): The top row indicates the current position of the playhead in SMPTE format (hours : minutes : seconds : frames), the bottom row in bars, beats, divisions, and ticks.
Locators (Left/Right): The top row indicates the left locator position, the bottom row the right locator position. Locators are used to define a particular section of the project for a number of recording or playback tasks. You can display locators in the Transport bar in terms of Bar or Time, by Control-clicking (or right-clicking) the display area and turning on/off the Display Locators as Time option. In Transport views which are part of Arrange windows, this option should automatically follow the Ruler mode.
Sample Rate or Punch Locators: The display shows the current project sample rate, or punch recording in/out locators (when punch recording mode is enabled). As with other Transport bar display fields, you can set the sample rate or punch locators with the mouse or via direct numerical entry.
Varispeed: The Varispeed display allows you to speed up or slow down a project between –50% and +100% (which equals between 50% and 200% of the original tempo). The top row indicates the Varispeed mode (Speed Only, Varispeed, Varispeed and MIDI), the bottom row the Varispeed value and unit.
Tempo/Project End: The Tempo display indicates the current playback or recording speed. The Project End display shows the total number of bars. It behaves as stop playback/recording marker for the project.
Signature/Division: The (Time) Signature display indicates the current playback or recording time signature in a standard musical format; 4/4, 5/4, and so on. The Division display determines the current display (and editing) resolution. A value of /16 means that a 4/4 bar is divided into 16 sub-sections, or 4 sub beats for each beat in the bar.
MIDI Activity (In/Out): The display indicates incoming and outgoing MIDI data. The MIDI In display (top) will show chord names for incoming MIDI note data.
Load Meters (CPU/HD): Click this display to show CPU load and hard disk throughput load meters. Double-click to open the load meters as a separate window. Alternatively, you can choose Options > Audio > System Performance from the main menu bar (or use the Open System Performance key command, default assignment: Option-X).

SQL Server 2012 Reorg Index Job Blew up the Log File

We have a maintenance plan that nightly (1) runs dbcc checkdb on all databases, (2) reorgs indexes on all databases, compacting large objects, (3) updates statistics, etc. There are three user databases, one large, one medium, one small. Usually it uses
a little more than 80% of the medium database's log, set to 6,700 MB. Last night the reorg index step caused the log to increase to almost 14,000 MB and then blew up because the maximum file size was set to 14,000 MB, one of the alter index commands failed
because it ran out of log space. (Dbcc checkdb step ran successfully.) Anyone have any idea what might cause this? There is one update process on this database, it runs at 3 AM. The maintenance plan runs at 9 PM and completes by 1 AM. The medium database has
a 21,000 MB data file, reserved space is at about 10 GB. This is a SQL 2012 Standard SP 2 running on Windows 2012 Server Standard.

I personally like to shrink the log files once the indexes have been rebuilt and before switching back to full recovery, because as I'm going to take a full backup afterwards, having a small log file reduces the size of the backup.
Do you grow them afterwards, or do you let the application waste time on that during peak hours?
I have not checked, but I see no reason why the backup size would depend on the size of the log file - it's the data in the data file you back up, not the log file.
I would say this is highly dubious.
Erland Sommarskog, SQL Server MVP, [email protected]
Yeah I let the application allegedly "waste" a few milisseconds a day autogrowing the log file. Common, how long do you think it takes for a log file to grow a few GB on most storage systems nowadays? As long as you set an appropriate autogrow
interval so your log file doesn't get too fragmented (full of VLFs), you'll be perfectly fine in most situations.
Lets say you have a logical disk dedicated to log file storage, but it is shared across multiple databases within the instance. Having allocated space for the log files means there will be not much free space left in the disk in case ANY database needs more
space than the others due to a peak in transactional workload, even though other databases have unused space that could have been used.
What if this same disk, for some reason, is also used to store the tempdb log file? Then all applications will become unstable.
These are the main reasons I don't recommend people blindly crucify keeping log files small when possible. I know there are many people who disagree and I'm aware of their reasons. Maybe we just had different experiences about this subject. Maybe people
just haven't been through the nightmare of having a corrupted system database or a crashed instance because of insuficient log space in the middle of the day.
And you are right about the size of the backup, I didn't put it correctly. It isn't the size of the backup that gets smaller (although the backup operation will run faster, having tested this myself), but the benefit from backing up a database with a small
log file is that you won't need the extra space to restore it in a different environment such as a BI or DEV server, where recuperability doesn't matter and the database will be on simple recovery mode.
Restoring the database will also be faster.
Just because there are clouds in the sky it doesn't mean it isn't blue. But someone will come and argue that in addition to clouds, birds, airplanes, pollution, sunsets, daltonism and nuclear bombs, all adding different colours to the sky, this
is an undocumented behavior and should not be relied upon.

How to remove extra blank spaces from log file.

i have created a log file which contain the logs of a program. the logs are getting created fine for the first execution of the program but from the second time the log file is getting blank space's after every character.
i have used the code to append the text in log files few examples :
'Clean up process started....' >> $log
File name :'+ $files +'Time-Stamp: '+ $endtime +'Search complete.' >> $log
.i want to remove the extra spaces after each character but not all the spaces from the file. Thanks in advance.

ACS -current log file CSMonLog Active.csv is showing blank

under ACS service monitoring TAB, the current log file CSMonLog Active.csv is showing blank ?
Could anyone let me know why this happens ?

CSMon—CSMon service is responsible for the monitoring, recording, and notification of Cisco Secure CS ACS performance, and includes automatic response to some scenarios. For instance,TACACS+ and RADIUS service dies, CS ACS by default restarts all the services, unless otherwise configured. Monitoring includes monitoring the overall status of Cisco Secure ACS and the system on which it is running. CSMon actively monitors three basic sets of system parameters:
    Generic host system state—monitors disk space, processor utilization, and memory utilization.
    Application-specific performance—periodically performs a test login each minute using a special built-in test account by default.
    System resource consumption by Cisco Secure ACS—CSMon periodically monitors and records the usage by Cisco Secure ACS of a small set of key system resources. Handles counts, memory utilization, processor utilization, thread used, and failed log-on attempts, and compares these to predetermined thresholds for indications of atypical behavior.
CSMon works with CSAuth to keep track of user accounts that are disabled for exceeding their failed attempts count maximum. If configured, CSMon provides immediate warning of brute force attacks by alerting the administrator that a large number of accounts have been disabled.
By default CSMon records exception events in logs both in the CSV file and Windows Event Log that you can use to diagnose problems. Optionally you can configure event notification via e-mail so that notification for exception events and outcomes includes the current state of Cisco Secure ACS at the time of the message transmission. The default notification method is simple mail-transfer protocol (SMTP) e-mail, but you can create scripts to enable other methods. However, if the event is a failure, CSMon takes the actions that are hard-coded when the triggering event is detected. If the event is a warning event, it is logged, the administrator is notified if it is configured, and no further action is taken. After a sequence of re-tries, CSMon also attempts to fix the cause of the failure and individual service restarts. It is possible to integrate custom-defined action with CSMon service, so that a user-defined action can be taken based on specific events.
Answering your query: This may be a brand new installation OR none of ACS services restarted lately so logs OR CSMON logging might have disabled under system configuration > Logging.

How to generate blank spaces at end of the record in a flat file with fixed

Hi,
I am generating a flat file with fixed length.
In my ABAP program, i am able to see the spaces at the end of the recors in debug but when download to applicaiton server i am not able to see those spaces.
How can i generate blank spaces at the end of the record in a flat file?
Please update
Thank you

How are you downloading the file? And, How are you looking at the file on the application server?
Can you provide snippets of your code?
Cheers

Problem about space management of archived log files

Dear friends,
I have a problem about space management of archived log files.
my database is Oracle 10g release 1 running in archivelog mode. I use OEM(web based) to config all the backup and recovery settings.
I config "Flash Recovery Area" to do backup and recovery automatically. my daily backup schedule is every night at 2:00am. and my backup setting is "disk settings"--"compressed backup set". the following is the RMAN script:
Daily Script:
run {
allocate channel oem_disk_backup device type disk;
recover copy of database with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0';
backup incremental level 1 cumulative copies=1 for recover of copy with tag 'ORA$OEM_LEVEL_0' database;
the retention policy is the second choice, that is "Retain backups that are necessary for a recovery to any time within the specified number of days (point-in-time recovery)". the recovery window is 1 day.
I assign enough space for flash recovery area. my database size is about 2G. I assign 20G as flash recovery area.
now here is the problem, through oracle online manual, it said oracle can manage the flash recovery area automatically, that is, when the space is full, it can delete the obsolete archived log files. but in fact, it never works! whenever the space is full, the database will hang up! besides, the status of archived log files is very strange, for example, it can change "obsolete" stauts from "yes" to "no", and then from "no" to "yes". I really have no idea about this! even though I know oracle usually keep archived files for some longer days than retention policy, but I really don't know why the obsolete status can change automatically. although I can write a schedule job to delete obsolete archived files every day, but I just want to know the reason. my goal is to backup all the files on disk and let oracle automatically manage them.
also, there is another problem about archive mode. I have two oracle 10g databases(release one), the size of db1 is more than 20G, the size of db2 is about 2G. both of them have the same backup and recovery policy, except I assign more flash recovery area for db1. both of them are on archive mode. both of nearly nobody access except for the schedule backup job and sometime I will admin through oem. the strange thing is that the number of archived log files of smaller database, db2, are much bigger than ones of bigger database. also the same situation for the size of the flashback logs for point-in-time recovery. (I enable flashback logging for fast database point-in-time recovery, the flashback retention time is 24 hours.) I found the memory utility of smaller database is higher than bigger database. nearly all the time the smaller database's memory utility keeps more than 99%. while the bigger one's memory utility keeps about 97%. (I enable "Automatic Shared Memory Management" on both databases.) but both database's cup and queue are very low. I'm nearly sure no one hack the databases. so I really have no idea why the same backup and recovery policy will result so different result, especially the smaller one produces more redo logs than bigger one. does there anyone happen to know the reason or how should I do to check the reason?
by the way, I found web based OEM can't reflect the correct database status when the database shutdown abnormally. for example, if the database hang up because of out of flash recovery area, after I assign more flash recovery area space and then restart the database, the OEM usually can't reflect the correct database status. I must restart OEM manually to correctly reflect the current database status. does there anyone know in what situation I should restart OEM to reflect the correct database status?
sorry for the long message, I just want to describe in details to easy diagnosis.
any hint will be greatly appreciated!
Sammy

thank you very much, in fact, my site's oracle never works about managing archive files automatically although I have tried all my best. at last, I made a job running daily to check the archive files and delete them.
thanks again.

File Content Conversion Removes Leading Blank/Space

I'm having a problem where file content conversion is trimming leading blanks/space/whitespace from fields when reading in the inbound file. I've seen where people have posted that you need to use fieldContentFormatting to prevent content conversion from stripping the leading/trailing whitespace. I added that parameter to my list (see below example) but it still appears to be trimming the leading whitespace. Look forward to hearing your thoughts. Here are the details:
I'm using fixed length file content conversion for Sender File Adapter (SP15). I have the following parameters set:
Document Name = MaterialData
Recordset name = item
Recordset Structure = MaterialLine, 1
I have:
MaterialLine.fieldNames = matno_external, mat_description
MaterialLine.fieldFixedLengths = 40, 40
MaterialLine.fieldContentFormatting = nothing, nothing
The following is the input file (notice spaces prior to second occurrence of material numbers)
ZED00000001                             AIMS LIGHT A
ZED00000001                            AIMS LIGHT B
ZED00000002                             AIMS SWITCH A
ZED00000002                            AIMS SWITCH B
ZED00000003                             AIMS SEMICONDUCTOR A
ZED00000003                            AIMS SEMICONDUCTOR B
The following is the source XML after file content conversion from SXMB_MONI (note spaces no longer exist in matno_external tag).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns:MaterialData xmlns:ns="http://xxxxxxx.com/yyy/test">

<matno_external>ZED00000003</matno_external>
<mat_description>AIMS SEMICONDUCTOR B</mat_description>
</MaterialLine>
</item>
</ns:MaterialData>

Thanks all for your attempts but I figured it out and wasn't this the biggest case of irony.
Here I was trying to prevent leading spaces from being trimmed in the loading of my file and my problem was that when I typed:
MaterialLine.fieldContentFormatting
I actually left a "blank" at the end of the "g" in Formatting. Apparently XI didn't like that and neither gave me a runtime or compile error. Anyway I found this and though I'd share in case anyone else encounters it. I removed the blank and all is working now.
