Capturing using a system-based setup vs. project-based setup

Trying to build a library of my 50 DV tapes on an external 4T hard drive and I am supposing that I need a system-based setup instead of a project-based setup during capture. Since my Adobe Premiere Pro SC6 Classroom in a Book tells me to check with my system administrator what should I do when I am the system administrator and don't know what to do?

1) Create a folder on your storage system.
2) Create a new Premiere Project, saved to that same folder. Make sure that scratch disc are set to "same as project"
3) Capture tapes.
You may re-organize tape's files after closing Premirere, or create a separate sub-folders and projects for each tape to begin with, depending on your needs.

Fill setup tables using Mirror systems

Hello BW Experts,
Could you provide the procedure how to do the fill of setup tables using mirror systems. This way i can avoid the downtime off the r/3 system.
Regards,

Hi,
What do you mean by mirror systems?
You can do an early initialization, which will fulfill your requirement of not shutting down R/3 system.

Setup was unable to use existing system partition because it does now contain the requiered free space.

I try to install it, but i select my free (fresh formated) partition with 35GB free space and i see:
Setup was unable to use existing system partition because it does now contain the required free space.
if i select partition with partition that does not contain the required i see
"Windows cannot be installed to Disk 0 Partition 1. (show details)"
so what is it? what can i test?
My Disk has 250GB, my partitions:
C: 8MB - Boot (7MB Free) - FAT
D: 37,5GB - WINXP (27,9GB Free space) - NTFS
E: 35,3GB - New (35,2GB Free) - NTFS - i want to install on it
F: 160GB - Data (6GB Free) - ntfs

Is this 8MB "Boot" partition (formatted as FAT???) something you created when you partitioned this disk for the Windows XP installation, or is this an 8MB OEM partition that you've somehow assigned drive letter C: to?
I wouldn't be surprised at all that your error message is being generated because thsi "BOOT" partition, labelled as drive C:, is only 8MB in size, and you can be absolutely positive that an 8MB partition is going to generate this error: "Setup was unable to use existing system partition because it does not contain the required free space."
The correct answer really depends on whether that drive C: is the boot (sic) (the proper terminology is to call it the system partition) partition for the Windows XP installation. If it is, then you're going to have some repair work to do on your Windows XP installation first, so that you can free up that 8MB partition.
In any event, I'm fairly certain that the solution is going to require the removal of that 8MB partition, as you've suggested in your most recent post.

Attribute Functions in Oracle Project Management Setup

I have been trying to find the functionality and applicability of the menu option " Attribute Functions" that is available in Oracle Project Management Setup.
I have used attribute groups and context to create view / placeholders to capture additional information related to the project, but have not been able to figure out the applicability of Attribute Functions.
Please help me if anyone has used it or know how to use it.

Hi,
Refer Oracle Project Management User Guide. (Section 2: Workplan and Progress Management)
Oracle Projects archives all submitted task and workplan progress. You can correct
submitted progress records and create backdated progress records.
Backdating Progress
============
You can create backdated progress records to fill gaps in the progress history of a task
or project. You can select any non-cycle progress date prior to the system date and enter
progress for this past date.
For example, you can enter backdated progress for a Friday in the past even if a project
has a progress cycle with Monday as the reporting day.
You enter an As of Date, progress status, a brief overview, comments, and physical
percent complete when you enter backdated progress.
Backdated progress transactions are for informational purposes

Using time machine to backup Logic Projects

Hi
I was wondering if it is possible to use time machine to backup my Logic Projects. I have a seperate internal drive that I use to keep all my user data on, like my Logic projects. I want to use time machine to back up these projects onto a external firewire drive.
Can timemachine only backup your systems drive and therefore I would need to have my Logic projects based stored on it?

Yes - time machine can back up any drive. I am using 3 drives: system drive, a USB2 drive for Time machine backups and a firewire 800 drive for Logic Studio projects, instruments, samples, audio, etc. TM backs up my system and FW drives to the USB drive.
Time machine options (in system preferences) allow you to exclude/include drives so you just need to set it to include your second internal drive.
The only thing I'm not sure of is whether this effects the loop browser. Oddly, when I was experimenting with using aliases for Apple loops, Logic actually found the TM backup files when it couldn't locate the original GB loops! After some file moving and index deleting I cleared all loops but now I have duplicate entries again in Logic - possibly due to TM, but I have not verified this.

How to use the SYSTEM user in hana cloud

Hello guys, I started with HANA cloud trial, but I havent been able to activate any projects due to an error with permissions,
Repository operation failed
Repository request failed. Cause: Repository: User is not authorized to execute specified operation;User 'DEV_7UKVVFEAC54C2E59OZZQSHXEN' has no authorization, privilege: 'REPO.EDIT_IMPORTED_OBJECTS', package: 'hello'!, code: 40,156, argument:
Now I believe the problem is obvious is that I dont have enough privileges, I went to the Users view and tried to add permissions to my user but I found out other error:
SAP DBTech JDBC: [7]: feature not supported: grantor and grantee are identical
Now I saw in several threads that if we want to add more privileges we should add them using SYSTEM user, but I just dont know how to log in with the SYSTEM user or how to switch to that user.
Any ideas or steps on how to do it?
Greetings!

I just tried performing the exact same steps as described in the tutorial and I can confirm that I get the same error. I get the same error from the Web IDE when trying to activate folders created via the sharing wizard of the Studio.
The problem would seem to be with the Studio version that is currently available from the HANA Tools update site. When packages are created from the project explorer (either directly or through project sharing), they are marked incorrectly as foreign projects (the little blue arrow on the icon).
However if you create the packages via the Content folder of the Systems view (as I did above for the hello package) or via the Web IDE; they are created correctly. I was able to setup a project in the Studio by pre-creating the package in such a way and then creating/sharing the project into the existing package. I still got an error on the .settings sub-folder, but I could ignore it and still activate the other objects.
Therefore I would suggest this approach or using the Web IDE.

When to consider Using Oracle Grants Accounting Over Oracle Projects Acct?

Hello Experts / Dina,
Could you please help me in understanding the situation where I must use Oracle grants Accounting rather than Oracle Project Accounting?
I mean what is the driving feature of Oracle Grants Accounting which is missing in Oracle Project Accounting.
Also if I implement Oracle Grants Accounting then is it possible for me to setup oracle project accounting ( costing / billing ) under same environment ? If Yes it is possible to implement under same Environment then is it possible to setup BOTH under same operating Unit?
Please help.....
Thanks
:-)

Hi Samba,
I believe that the document Dean refers to is found in this MOS note:-
Project Managment & Grants Accounting Are Certified To Work In Same Operating Unit [ID 878214.1]
To address some other points:-
1) Grants Accounting (GMS) uses many of the same database objects as Project Accounting (PA). The best way to think of it is as a "customisation" of Project Accounting; albeit one that has been created by Oracle. For example, when a new grant is created (called an Award, stored in GMS_AWARDS_ALL) a supporting record is also automatically created in PA_PROJECTS_ALL
2) Because of 1), Grants Accounting and Project Accounting cannot be implemented and used independently within the same Operating Unit; Grants is built on Projects. However, some Projects features can still be used directly, such as elements of Project Management as described by the above document
3) Grants tends to only be used within the higher education, research and public sectors. Organisations within these industries typically have complex project funding structures, and have a requirement for tight budgetary control enforced by the system. Grants provides functionality to cater for both of these requirements, better than Projects does on its own. This does of course come at a price; by implementing Grants there are some Projects features that are not available
Please mark if useful / answered. Project (EU) Ltd has a wealth of experience implementing Grants and Projects; we are the first partner globally to have been recognised by Oracle as specialist Oracle Projects implementation experts. Please see our blog for more information or get in touch if you need any further assistance.

Any help or guidance is appreciated.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

The Lenovo System Update installed the "Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver 8.9.2.1002" right before the Windows Upgrade got broken. So in the Device Manager under IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers, I choose Intel ICH9M-E/M SATA AHCI Controller, on the Driver Tab, I choose the option "Roll Back Driver" and after rolling back the driver and restarting the OS, now Windows Update is working like a Champ!
The End!

Can I use username = system when I log into SQL plus?

I am new to Oracle and SQL plus and I have some questions to ask?
I managed to get SQLPlus working using sqlplus system/password
When I installed Oracle I created a database called ORCL and set a password. My question is when I am using SQL Plus is it OK
to use username= system. The problem is that I created 3 tables in this database but when I list the tables I get about 181 tables returned.
It seems that I have logged into the master database.
In fact I just used the password I set when I installed Oracle (not the @asi past)
from:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13212_01/wles/docs42/installadmin/database.html
Configuring an Oracle Policy Database
To configure an Oracle policy database, you must create the policy database, create a security role and a user, and grant the security role and user access.
To configure a policy database, perform the following steps:
Open a command window, run the Oracle SQLPlus utility, and login as user SYSTEM with the password you set for that user account when you installed the Oracle database software.
sqlplus system/password@asi
where: password is the password you set for the system account when you installed the database software and asi is the database instance name.
The name of the database I set up when I installed Oracle was ORCL.
I can set up a data source using WebLogic Server Administration Console using the following data:
Database name:             ORCL
Host name:                      localhost
Port:                                 1521
Database USer Name:   System
Password:                        the password I set when I installed Oracle
This is different form the book I am using where the writer used the database name XE as in the following:
Database name:             XE
Host name:                      localhost
Port:                                 1521
Database USer Name:   OE
Password:                        .......
Confirm Password:        .......
Anyways I managed to create some tables using SQL script. I assume these are in the ORCL database.
SELECT TABLE_NAME FROM USER_TABLES will list all the tables in the database.
Apparently there are a lot more tables in this database (181 tables) than I thought. I have only created 3 tables.
Article
Section
Edition
Is this how it should be?
Also I am trying to create another table Catalog but SQLPlus is not allowing me to do this!
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object
Next I create an EJB project using Eclipse (Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse).   Then
I add a JPA (Java Persistence API) project facet. In this I specify the following:
SID:                         ORCL
Host:                       localhost
Port Number:       1521
User name:            System
Password:               The password I set when I installed Oracle.
Here there is a GUI called Select tables which gives a list of tables I assume the same list of table
I had listed in DOS however there appears to be more tables here.
Anyways, I am just wondering am I on the correct path and would this Database I am using be the
ORCL database. Would all these tables be tables that are in the ORCL database?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Brian.

Budget error while issuing stock to the project based production order

Ours is project based Engineering company, we mfg euipments for the client which is part of the project.
We define separate WBS element for equipment to be manufacture & create reservation under this WBS element.
Secondly we follow production process through PP & define BOM for equipment which contains component rquired to mfg the equipment. To control cost(budget) component group wise we create separate sub WBS element for each component group(plates, motors etc) under above equipment WBS element
Kindly refer e.g.below
1. Equipment (Finished code) to be manufacture is attached on WBS MYC-210952-06-03
2. Production order(1003780) created with reference to above WBS element
3 Material procured under WBS MYC-210952-06-03-001
4. Stock available under WBS MYC-210952-06-03-001
We would like to issue material available under MYC-210952-06-03-001 to production order which is attached to WBS MYC-210952-06-03. (Tcode MB1A)
System allows to issue stock, but gives budget error.
Is it possible to transfer budget auto in the transaction MB1A itself from MYC-210952-06-03-001 to MYC-210952-06-03 or what is the best solution available for above situation.
Kindly confirm.
Thanks & regards
Sanjay Karnekar

Hi Sanjay,
You have consumed a budget at lower level WBS for material procurement. And at upper level you want to do stock transfer.
But while doing budget allocation you have distributed the budget from Upper level to lower level so there is no distributable value is avaialble at upper level for the amount of the materail stock you want to transfer.
In this either you have to keep your all budget values at upper level where your doing equipment aeembly and not distribute the budget further at lower level.
Now you alredy this so you cant do anything.
Now you have following option available with you. You have perform following activity by the given sequence.
Deactivate the Budget check by CJBW
Do your stock transfer
Do budget return by CJ38 from level WBS to upper level WBS
Now Activate the budget check by CJBV.

Pradeep

Forcing a web browser to use the system cache

Greetings,
We are setting-up an "enterprise configuration" of JWS where we want JWS applications installed under the system folder (e.g. "<Windows Directory>Sun\Java\Deployment") rather the user "Documents and Settings" folder. The install script will run on thousands of desktops the same day. Since we do NOT want the JAR files downloaded to all these desktops at the same time, the script does not run "javaws -import" at the end - it simply copies the files deployment.properties and deployment.config under the sysem folder with the following properties set:
deployment.system.security.trusted.certs = C\:\\WINDOWS\\Sun\\Java\\Deployment\\keystore.jks
deployment.system.cachedir = C\:\\WINDOWS\\Sun\\Java\\Deployment\\cache\\
deployment.system.config = file:\\C:\\WINDOWS\\Sun\\Java\\Deployment\\deployment.properties
deployment.system.config.mandatory = true
The install script also copies a shortcut with the target "jawaws -system...."
This setup works fine and the shortcut does cause the application to be downloaded at the proper system location.
However, if the user starts the app from IE (e.g. http://xx.xx.jnlp), it ignores the system configuration and downloads the app to the local user folder.
Is there anyway to force the download to occur in the system folder ? What I find pretty odd is that even lanuched from IE, JWS does read the deployment.properties and deployment.config files from the system folder. I've put a typo and it there and JWS complained right away.
Thanks

No that is not possible with code on web pages (userContent.css could probably do this).<br />
The persona is only used as the background for the user interface (toolbar) area and not for websites.<br />
The dimensions of the persona with the height of 200px is also not enough to cover a page.

Capturing using external HD via fire wire?

I just bought a lacie 80 GB mobile external hard drive. I want to begin capturing a new project... however I see only one fire wire port on my powerbook G4. So how do I connect my hard drive and camera, both of which are using fire wire?

Tom-
I also posted this as a seprate message-----
OK, I finally bought the correct-- at least I think it's the correct--- external hard drive (160 GB lacie). However, when I use "capture now" I get an "allocating disk space" message. This message usually stays up for a very long time with the spinning pin wheel, which results in only a small fraction of my video being captured.... if any at all.
I'm assuming this has something to do with the addition of the external hard drive... any suggestions?
Also, when I capture using clip it seems to work OK... sort of. Clip will capture the video, but only one channel of audio.

CR 2010 Report using "File System Data" as source fails in production

Hello, I've recently upgraded my website from VS 2008 with full CR 2008 to VS 2010 using CR 2010 SP1 runtime (x32). Everything went fine except for one report that uses as a source the "file system data". It points to a share on a samba drive and it worked great before the upgrade. After upgrading my development box the report runs fine, but when I deployed it, it fails with the message:
Failed to load database information. Error in File {report name} {D5D84E7F-54DB-4BCA-B3C3-0A169CDC36D7}.rpt: Failed to load database information.
I made sure the websiteu2019s Application Pool identity was set to use credentials of a user who has access to the share.
The data source has the following properties:
Database DLL: crbd_filesystem.dll
File Mask: .
Include Empty Directories: False
Max Number of Subdirectory Levels: -1
Starting Directory:
{FreeBSD server name}\{share name}
This report uses a sub-report which has the same source. This report works fine from (full) CR 2008 and from the designer inside of VS 2010 works too. I can run it on my development box (in release and debug modes) which is Windows 7 (x64) using IIS 7.
In production, we donu2019t include the runtime in our application deployment, since we run multiple sites and do updates frequently, so we pre-install (one time) the runtime separately on the server. We installed the CR 2010 SP1 x32 runtime on our test and development boxes which both are Windows 2003 with IIS6 and made sure they are setup to use .Net 4 and have the Application Pool identity setup to have access to the share. All my other reports which use ODBC work fine. Just this one report doesnu2019t and Iu2019m at a loss on how to even begin troubleshooting this.
Is CR 2010 still capable of using u201Cfile system datau201D as a source? I couldnu2019t find anything on u201Cfile system datau201D with CR 2010. Though I have seen under Other Sources, it still exist when I created a new report, just to try it out.

Looks like you've found a bug with the CRVS2010 runtime. I looked for the crbd_filesystem.dll in the CRVS2010 install directory (C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86) and it is there. I then opened up the 32 bit MSI and MSM with the MS Orca utility to see if the file is included and it is not.
Two things we can do:
1) Add the crdb_filesystem.dll to your install and make sure it installs to the above directory on the runtime computer
2) I will created a fix request for the issue, however next fix will be Service Pack 2 (ETA, sometime after October) and I doubt this will make it there. So we'd be looking at SP 3 - if there will be one (ETA would be in 2012).

Hi,
based on the posted coding I think that the reason for this behavior is that the used document type has set the flag 'Use KPRO' in transaction DC10. Because the storage category 'SAP-SYSTEM' is not a KPRO storage category like DMS_C1_ST. So if this flag is set in the customer then only originals checked in to a KPRO storage category are displayed. Without this flag the originals in "older" storage categories are displayed (e.g. SAP-SYSTEM, archive,...).
Regarding the limitation of 2 originals per document info record, I can inform you that this is a standard restriction of you do not
check in your originals to a KPRO. With the KPRO storage there is no such limitation.
Generally I'm asking myself why you are using the BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE2 and then also the CHECKIN BAPI. Because you can enter the original data also at the CREATE2 BAPI. If you want to checkin files to the KPRO then the filedata has to be
handed over in table DOCUMENTFILES. If you want to check in originals to SAP-SYSTEM then the data has to be entered in table DOCUMENTDATA. For further information please see SAP note 766277 which has a complete BAPI documentation added in its attachment area.
Best regards,

Strange memory behaviour using the System.Collections.Hashtable in object reference

Dear all,
Recently I came across a strange memory behaviour when comparing the system.collections.hashtable versus de scripting.dictionary object and thought to analyse it a bit in depth. First I thought I incorrectly destroyed references to the class and
child classes but even when properly destroying them (and even implemented a "SafeObject" with deallocate method) I kept seeing strange memory behaviour.
Hope this will help others when facing strange memory usage BUT I dont have a solution to the problem (yet) suggestions are welcome.
Setting:
I have a parent class that stores data in child classes through the use of a dictionary object. I want to store many differenct items in memory and fetching or alteging them must be as efficient as possible using the dictionary ability of retrieving key
/ value pairs. When the child class (which I store in the dictionary as value) contains another dictionary object memory handeling is as expected where all used memory is release upon the objects leaving scope (or destroyed via code). When I use a system.collection.hashtable
no memory is released at all though apears to have some internal flag that marks it as useable for another system.collection.hashtable object.
I created a small test snippet of code to test this behaviour with (running excel from the Office Plus 2010 version) The snippet contains a module to instantiate the parent class and child classes that will contain the data. One sub will test the Hash functionality
and the other sub will test the dictionary functionality.
Module1

d_CycleCount = 50000
'Add dummy data records to the child container with x amount of data For d_Count = 0 To d_CycleCount
Parent.ChildContainer("TEST_hash").InsertDataToHash CStr(d_Count), "dummy data"
Next
'Killing the parent when it goes out of scope should kill the childs. (Try it out and watch for the termination debug messages)
'According to documentation and debug messages not really required!
Set Parent.ChildContainer("TEST_hash") = Nothing
'According to documentation not really as we are leaving scope but just to be consistent.. kill the parent!
Set Parent = Nothing
End Sub

Hi Cor,
Thank you for going through my post and took the time to reply :) Most apreciated. The issue I am facing is that the memory is not reallocated when using mixed object types and is not behaving the same. I not understand that .net versus the older methods
use memory allocation differently and perhaps using the .net dictionary object (in stead of the scripting.dictionary) may lead to similar behaviour. {Curious to find that out -> put to the to do list of interesting thingies to explore}
I agree that allocated memory is not a bad thing as the blocks are already assigned to the program and therefore should be reallocated with more performance. However the dictionary object versus hashtable perform almost identical (and sometimes even favor
the dictionary object)
The hashtable is clearly the winner when dealing with small sets of data.
The issue arises when I am using the hash table in conjunction with another type, for example a dictionary, I see that the dictionary object's memory is stacked on top of the claimed memory space of the hashtable. It appears that .net memory allocation and
reuse is for .net references only. :) (Or so it seems)
In another example I got with the similar setup, I see that the total used memory is never released or reclaimed and leakage of around 20% allocated memory remains to eventually crash the system with the out of memory message. (This is when another class
calls the parent class that instantiates the child class but thats not the point of the question at hand)
This leakage drove me to investigate and create the example of this post in the first place. For the solution with the class -> parent class -> child class memory leak I switched all to dictionaries and no leakage occurs anymore but nevertheless thought
it may be good to share / ask if anyone else knows more :D (Never to old to learn something new)
