Can I use both SID and SERVICE_NAME in my DG configuration?

Hello,
Need little guidance for the following senario
I've got a shared database where more then one application connects to. To configure failover from primary to standby, I need SERVICE_NAME'ing but my applications connect using SID naming conventions to this DB
Can I use both SID and SERVICE_NAME in DG configuration + make the applications failover to STANDBY DB as well?
Regards,
Kam

You will hardly achieve a proper connect to your new Primary using SIDs after switchover.
Stay away from using SID - connects with your applications and use application services for that instead.
Kind regards

  • HT4818 Can you use both Bootcamp and Parallels with the same Windows 7 installed

    I have Parallels installed with Windows 7.  Can I use both Bootcamp and Parallels on the same machine depending on whether I just want to work in Windows all day (Bootcamp) or alternate during the same session (Parallels)?

    You can, yes. But there is a complication: once you activate windows it will only be activated for one of the two methods you use. So, let's say you install into boot camp and activate windows. You can then install Parallels and it will find your boot camp installation, but when running in Parallels, Windows will report that it is not activated. Or, you can activate it in Parallels and when running in Boot Camp Windows will report that it is not activated. The reason for this is because Windows thinks it is running on different computers depending on how you boot it. This may not be an issue for you if you run Windows a lot one way and just occasionally the other way, so be sure to activate Windows in whichever method you use more often. Hope this helps!

    You can use Parallels desktop or VM Fusion to run both operating systems at the same time. Both programs work well, but I personally perfer VM Fusion.

  • Can I use both Wifi and a Lan connection at the same time?

    With me back in the dorms I have been limited to a slower connection than what I would like. Now we are able to use both Wifi and a Lan line so I was wondering to somewhat "double" my speed if there was any way to use both connections at the same time.
    Now I know that you can have both plugged in at the same time, I guess what I'm asking is, is there a way that I could set programs to use one or the other? Or some kind of virtual desktop that is set to use the other connection or anything that would allow both be used at the same time.
    Or am I just wishing for something that doesn't have any possible way to work?

    You can use both at the same time, but not gor Internet access if that's what you're asking.
    Now there is a thing called Link Aggregation, which combines a number of interfaces for speed/redundancy, but it really only works locally, and then only with ALL special equipment in the route, and most likely OSX Server involved.
    Sorry.

  • Can we use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in JDBC Receiver

    Hi All,
    I would like to know is it possible to use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in one interface because I have a requirement in which I have to perform both the task.
    user send the file which contains both new and old record and I need to save those in MS SQL database.
    If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT.
    I looked on sdn but didn't find any blog which perform both the things at the same time.
    Interface Requirement
    FILE -
    > PI -
    > JDBC(INSERT & UPDATE)
    I am thinking to use JDBC Lookup but not sure if it good to use for bulk record.
    Can somebody please suggest me something or send me the link of any blog or anything to solve this problem.
    Thanks,

    Hi ,
              If I have understood properly the scenario properly,you are not performing insert and update together. As you posted
    "If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT."
    Thus you are performing either an insert or an update which depends on outcome of a search if the records already exist in database or not. Obviously to search the tables you need " select * from ...  where ...." query. If your query returns some results you proceed with update since this means there are some old records already in database. If your query returns no rows  you proceed with "insert into tablename....." since there are no old records present in database.
      Now perhaps the best method to do the searching, taking a decision to insert or update, and finally insert or update operation is to be done by a stored procedure in MS SQL database.  A stored procedure is a subroutine available to applications accessing a relational database system. Here the application is PI server.   If you need further help on how to write and call stored procedure in MS SQL you can look into these links
    http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/databases/ms-sql/threads/146829
    http://www.sqlteam.com/article/stored-procedures-parameters-inserts-and-updates
    [ This part you can ignore, Since its not sure that you will face this situation
        Still you might face some problems while your scenario runs. Lets consider this scenario, after the stored procedure searches the database it found no rows. Thus you proceed with an insert operation. If your database table is being accessed by multiple applications (or users) other than yours then it is very well possible that after the search operation completed with a null result, an insert/update operation has been performed by some other application with the same primary key. Now when you are trying to insert another row with same primary key you get an error message like "duplicate entry not possible for same primary key value". Thus you need to be careful in this respect. MS SQL has a feature called "exclusive locks ". Look into these links for more details on the subject

        There must be other methods to avoid this problem. But the point is you need to be sure that all access to database for insert/update operations are isolated.

  • Can I use both iPhoto and Aperture on the same library?

    I like some of the features of iPhoto (like faces and places) but prefer to work in Aperture for its rich tool content. Is there any way I can use both iPhoto and Aperture on the same library? Or, import images from Aperture into iPhoto?
    Thanks much!
    John

    I think you may have answered a question I have with the above, but to be sure here is what I would like to do. I currently have iPhoto09 with about 50,000 pictures in it, which seems too much for it to manage. I would like to use Aperture, which I understand is better for managing a large number of photos, but still have iPhoto available to make slide shows, etc. for our AppleTV. Would the process you described above work for that?
    Thank you

  • Can i use both windows and OS X in the same hardisk

    I want to install windows 7 ultimate(64 bit) on imac but if i install it can i use both OS X and windows in the same hardisk or do i have to plug in an external hardisk and can i still use OS X or only apple??

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Of course. You can install Windows and OS X in the same hard drive, because that's the purpose of Boot Camp.
    I see you are using OS X Mavericks, so you can install Windows 7 or 8 in Boot Camp > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634?viewlocale=en_US Then, follow these steps to install Windows > http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1636/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.8.pdf
    After installing Windows, your Mac will start up in Windows by default. In order to choose in which operating system you want to start up, just hold the Option (Alt) key while your computer is starting up.
    If you do not want to do heavy tasks in Windows, another option you should consider is to install Windows in a virtual machine with the use of an app like VMware Fusion, VirtualBox or Parallels. This way is more secure and there's no risk to harm your Mac.

  • On my wireless printer can i use both usb and wireless at the same time

    i tried to print from coupons,com but it will not  i have used coupons.com before with my other printer and weorked fine i have coupons.com looking into it
    just wondering if anyone else out there have the same problem

    Hi,
    Same physical printer but when connecting to SAME computer using both USB and wireless it becomes two (logical) printers. Probably your default prnter is the wireless one, you have to select the right printer before print .

  • Can we use both 0FI_AP_3 and 0FI_AP_4 for Delta Loads at the same time.....

    Hi Gurus:
    Currently my company uses 0FI_AP_3 for some A/P reporting. It has been heavily customized & uses Delta loading. However, SAP recommends the use of "0FI_AP_4" for A/P data fro delta loads. I was able to Activate 0FI_AP_4 as well & do some Full Loads in Dev/Test boxes. Question is whether I can use both the extractors for "Delta" loads at the same time......? If there are any issue, what is the issue and how ccan I resolve it? Is the use of only one extractor recommended......??
    Please let me know as this impacts a lot of my development....! Thanks....
    Best...... ShruMaa
    PS:  I had posted this in "BI Extractors" forum but there has been no response......  Hope to get some response.......!  Thanks

    Hi,
    I would recommend you to use 0FI_AP_4 rather using both, particularly for many reasons -
    1. DS: 0FI_AP_4  replaces DataSource 0FI_AP_3 and still uses the same extraction structure. For more details refer to the OSS note 410797.
    2. You can run the 0FI_AP_4 independent of any other FI datasources like 0FI_AR_4 and 0FI_GL_4 or even 0FI_GL_14. For more details refer to the OSS note: 551044.
    3. Map the 0FI_AP_4 to DSO: 0FIAP_O03 (or create a Z one as per your requirement).
    4. Load the same to a InfoCube (0FIAP_C03).
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

  • Can't use both adjust and settings icons when creating a slideshow

    I have a slideshow that begins with a poem that needs to show longer than the rest of the pictures. If I use the settings icon, then the pictures are all set the same length of time and the adjust icon does not let me make any changes to individual pictures. If I use the adjust button for each picture and do not go to settings, then I can't make the other changes I need such as "fit to music." In essence, I need to be able to use both icons but one "overrides" the other, any suggestions?

    Peculiar. And you selected the specific slide you wanted to change, and then opened the Adjust pane?
    Here are a couple workarounds. If you are stuck with a default slide length (eg 5seconds), copy the slide you want to show during the poem and paste it multiple times into your slideshow (20 times for each minute you want it on the screen).
    Since iDVD will return you to the menu when you're changing between "slideshows" you could use the Pro version of Quicktime ($29) to assemble the pieces and avoid this interruption. The basic process could be:
    - Create a video file of your main slideshow without music by Share/Export to Full Quality Quicktime.
    - Create a video file of your "poem" slide by creating a new slideshow with a long-duration slide and no music (and Share/Export like above).
    - Now you have the two video pieces you need. Using QT Pro, open both files and Select All of the big slideshow and copy. Go to the end of the intro slide and paste (Add) to that video file.
    - Lay the audio track. Use QTime to open the song file, Select All and Copy. Go to the beginning of the slideshow video file that you've been working on, and Add. Save as a Self-contained file.
    Check the slideshow and if ok, drag it onto the menu area of iDVD to import.

  • Can I use both ePrint and AirPrint on an HP4630 at the same time

    I have an HP4630 printer that I wish to use with an iPad and Mac Notebook (PowerPC running OS X 10.5.8) and want to know if I can run AirPrint for iPad and ePrint for Mac Notebook at the sametime.
    I understand that Mac Notebook can not connect to the printer over the network because it is not capable of running OS X 10.6 and above.
    I appreciate your help.

    Hello Chesher5,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    Regarding the inquiry into ePrint and AirPrint for the Officejet 4630, yes they can be both used at the same time. They are completely separate means of printing. Both require a network connection though.
    If you have any problems setting up or using either, please let me know and I'll do my best to assist.

  • HT3562 A lot of people are bilinguals living in the USA. How can I use both English and Cantonese in all the apps

    In the USA, there are a lot of bilinguals. Being Chinese and live in the USA, there are millions of people speak both English and Cantonese. There are no way in the OS that I can set it up to recognize both at the same time. I have added the international keyboard of English and Chinese. The default for Chinese Voice command when I switch from English. There is no way in OS that I can link the Chinese input in Keyborad Language to Cantonese. All the default of Keyboard input are link to Madarin.
    Apple should make the change in the next OS that can link a keyboard language to different dialect for Chinese Language
