Client Strategy questions with BPS in mind

We are implementing BW and BPS.
The system landscape in my project has been planned to have different client numbers and different logical systems for each environment for BW and Source Systems (Dev, Quality and Production).
With BPS I am foreseeing issues when transporting the retraction structures, once they carry the client number (transaction UPB_STRUCT)
I could not find a conversion table for this case (like we have for BW - RSLOGSYSMAP).
And in this case (transaction UPB_STRUCT) the objects will carry the client number + planning area name (/1SEM/_YS_CHAS_400ZEXP0001).
1. So I conclude that the client number HAS to be the same in all BW environments (Dev, Quality and Production). Could you confirm this?
There are configurations for public sector retraction, where the logical system name is used to map the queries into the Funds Management BCS fields. (SPRO -> Define field assignments for plan data transfer from BW)
2. Given this configuration mentioned, is it REQUIRED to have the same logical system name in all BW environments?
Ive seen a presentation from SAP (SAP BW System Landscape Strategies / Mayer) with certain recommendations like the ones found in the OSS note 184447:
     You thus should have the following over all system landscape
BD(BW1CLNT100)->BC(BW1CLNT100)-> BP(BW1CLNT100)
   ||                  ||                  ||
   ||                  ||                  ||
OD(QS1CLNT300)->OC(QS1CLNT300)-> OP(QS1CLNT300)
That presentation also mentioned thats possible to have multiple Logical System names for BW in multiple environments.
Please give me your thoughts having in mind BW-BPS as part of the implementation:
3.     Should we have SAME Client number and SAME Logical system name in all environments for BW?
4.     I dont see any impact for source system perspective with logical names, do you?
5.     If you tell me that BW can handle different Logical System names, could you tell me where to configure to have BPS objects and retraction query mappings pointing to the right logical systems and client numbers the transport process (equivalent to what RSLOGSYSMAP does for source systems).
Thanks

Hello Alex,
I strongly recommend to have identical client numbers in your landscape (especially if you still have the choice). BW handles only one client anyway and there is no benefit of having different client numbers.
One client number will take care of BPS issues and you can hardcode structures and ABAP to the client number. Trust me it will make your life easier down the road.
BPS itself does not depend on the logical system name. If there are connecting applications, they have to take care of the mapping like BW does. But this depends on the application.

J2EE questions with thick client

I�m trying to move from an existing client-server Swing application (currently talks directly to a database via JDBC) to a 3-tier J2EE model. This is primarily so that I can use HTTP web services on port 80 to bypass firewalls, and to allow for future architectural expansion beyond the current Swing client. I am experienced with Java and Swing, but very new to J2EE, so I'm hoping that there are some obvious points that I am missing.
I am surprised by the lack of 'thick client' examples, tutorials, and documentation that I see with J2EE - almost everything is oriented towards HTML web applications. Here are some questions that I have for using J2EE with a thick client (specifically Swing):
* Where are business logic methods executed? On the client or the server? I get the impression that with J2EE and EJB, all business logic is executed on the server via RPC. Can I choose to have this done in the client instead? If so, how?
* My Swing applications depend heavily on PropertyChangeEvents being fired from the data objects in order for me to update my UI. If the answer to the previous question is that all business logic is executed on the server, then is there a way for my client listeners to receive these change events? If not, how do I know when to update my UI?
* If all business methods are executed on the server, what about accessor methods? Do those need to make a round trip for every call? I've read a little bit about Data Transfer Objects (DTO's) to solve this, but I don't completely understand the concept - if DTO's have no embedded business logic, then how do I know whether a particular getXXX() method has business logic attached to it, and therefore whether to reference the DTO or the server EJB object?
Thanks for answers to these questions. Googling for 'J2EE' and 'thick client' came up with no useful information; I'm hoping to post a HOWTO that will help others after I get this running.

The petstore sample application from blueprints (java.sun.com/blueprints) has an admin module which is a Java Webstart enabled "thick client" that gets business logic processing done on the server. Also the client chapter for the "designing enterprise apps with J2EE" book (also available as html from the same link) gives some tips on designing clients. These may be of help to you

Client strategy for DEV system in an implementation proj

Hi,
Can some one advise a good client strategy for an impl project? here's and example and questions i have. if you have a better strategy, pls advise. We want to follow this on ECC 6 DEV system -
10 - Sandbox (play around before doing config - no transports)
20 - Golden client (do real config here, and do development here - transports will start from here)
30 - Test client (for SCC1 testing)
I am assuming I should do DEVELOPMENT in the same golden client - does that make sense? Else, which should i have a new client? in that case, how will transports move?
Thanks for all your help

Hello Jerryp,
Our customer has similar setup:
100 - Sandpit
200 - Dev and Cust
300 - Testing
400 - Sandpit 2
Whenever we need to do any unit tests in client 300, we copy over customizing by using SCC1 transaction (client copy via transport request).
For example whatever development (code or customizing) we do in 200 is copied over to 300 by SCC1. This ensures the client dependent customizing is in sync with client 300 without destroying data.
Also, periodically we refresh client 100 and 400 and with data and customizing from 300. No development client independent changes are possible in the sandpit and testing clients.

Siddhesh

Client Eventing Problem with URL Iview

Hi,
I am new to EP and have a basic client eventing question. We are trying to integrate a URL Iview from a partner product with a standard Iview downloaded from Iviewstudio. This standard Iview is capable of handling client events from other Iviews in the standard package. We want to re-use this Iview with the same event (same functionality) to be able to handle events from the partner URL Iview.
The partner Iview and our portal are on different servers.
We are using the following Javascript but it doesnt seem to raise the event.
EPCM.storeClientData('urn:com.sap.bor:BUS0010','objid',LocId));
EPCM.storeClientData('urn:com.sap.bor:BUS0010','AllKeys','objid');
EPCM.raiseEvent('urn:com.sap.bor:BUS0010','select','','/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/...'
We were able to debug and find that the data was being stored in the Data Bag. However the event is not being raised at all. It seems that it just gets stuck somewhere in the Raise event. We even put a javascript alert after the raise event but it doesnt seem to reach there at all.
Could you give me a few pointers as to what the problem might be.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
let's have a look at two quotes of the PDK documentation.
"Using the EPCF from your JavaScript, you can send messages to JavaScript code embedded in other iViews."
"Isolated iViews are iViews that are not inlined into a portal page, but referenced using an IFRAME. To make the EPCF available in such iViews, the EPCF JavaScript as well as the EPCF applet are included into each generated frame."
From my point of view, this only can work automatically with content provided by the portal.
Therefore, this can't work with isolated URL iViews generated with the wizards. Imagine a google iView, running in an iFrame. Google is called by the portal, but it's simply standard google HTML output - displayed in the portal.
To provide the capability of the EPCF, the epcf javascript file has to be included in the "partner URL iView"'s source. I tried this and it worked. However, this is not a highly sophisticated solution
If the partner iView's server is running in a different domain, there are further issues to be considered (keyword: java script origin policy)
If anybody has corrections or can provide a good solution, don't hesitate.

How to implement a client side map with ObjectImage control?

We need to implement a client side map with an ADF Faces ObjectImage control. In the code below, the JSF Faces GraphicImage contol does support a client side image map using the usemap property. However, it appears that the ADF Faces ObjectImage control does not support a client side map. Is there someway of implementing this functionality in an ObjectImage control?
<h:graphicImage url="/images/map-usa.gif"
usemap="#m_mapusa"
binding="#{backing_map.graphicImage2}"
id="graphicImage2"
style="border-style:none;"/>
<af:objectImage source="/images/map-usa.gif"
binding="#{backing_map.objectImage2}"
id="objectImage2" />
We could use the Graphic Image control except we have a problem by mixing a JSF GraphicImage control in the same table with a variety of ADF Faces controls in that when a user clicks on the GraphicImage, then the browser windows scrolls down to center the GraphicImage control. A user then needs to scroll back up to see the rest of the page. If an ObjectImage control is used with an onClick action, then the page does not scroll, which is what we want. So if we can figure out how to add a client side map to an ObjectImage control we would get the desired results.
An alternative might be to use a server side map with the ObjectImage control. But our question here is how to implement the existing client side image map in a backing bean. As the following map code shows, not all image map areas are rectangles - some are polygons.
<area id="_state_05" href="#"
shape="rect"
coords="681,38,702,50"
target="_self" value="VT" alt="Vermont"
onclick="javascript:getDtl(this);"/>
<area id="_state_06" href="#"
shape="poly"
coords="221,442,209,436,209,418,191,403,155,382,116,367,101,370,98,364,
122,355,158,367,203,388,212,394,242,427"
target="_self" value="HI" alt="Hawaii"
onclick="javascript:getDtl(this);"/>

Hi,
Any news about that issue, we are also interested in any solution.

Ways to Configure Which UNIX Server a PC Client Application Communicates With

We have several different MS VC++ "fat client" applications that we want to run
on the same NT 4.0 PC.
Each application uses the Tuxedo 7.1 client to communicate with Tuxedo services
located on a UNIX server.
Each application needs to communicate with a different UNIX server (e.g., application
A1 needs Tuxedo
service T1 located on UNIX server S1, application A2 needs Tuxedo service T2 located
on UNIX server
S2). We'd like to load the Tuxedo 7.1 client software in such a way that each
individual application
controls which server it uses. One way to do that is through registry entries
specific to each application.
We are looking for some documentation or tips on other/better ways to configure
which server the PC
application communicates with. We are also looking for some documentation or
tips on how to best
configure an application that needs to subscribe to services from several different
servers (e.g.,
application A needs Tuxedo service T1 on server S1 and Tuxedo service T2 on server
S2). Thanks.

Matt,
This sounds quite unusual, and I am not sure why you want to do things this way.
Generally, I would expect that the services would be distributed on the server side over
different boxes as you describe, but the location would be transparent to a client app.
which would tpinit once, and Tuxedo would route the requests appropriately. Maybe that's
not how you want to do things because the apps are all logically independent? I'm not
sure about that though, since you describe needing services on different servers in
individual clients... Can you do the integration at the back end?
To do what you describe, however, you need to control the value of the WSNADDR
environment variable before you call tpinit() - it is the network address in this
variable that tells the client libraries which server to connect to. Simply set the
value (from a command line parameter, the registry, an ini file or wherever) with the
tuxputenv() API before you call tpinit()
In Tuxedo 7.1 and higher, it is also possible to connect to multiple different servers
simultaneousy by calling tpinit multiple times and having multiple contexts in the
client.
I hope that helps.
Regards,
Peter.

Client Server question:Getting client responses in 2 locations, avoiding

I have a client that holds all the connections. Then a GUI running inside the same VM can do specific on demand actions on some selected clients.
I keep all the connections inside a Vector, then in the GUI when I want to send for example to a client a "ver" command the client should respond with his version.
I implemented the behavior but my question is as follows: when I click the ver button on the GUI form, I get the Vector connection from the server class, then I get the associated BufferedReader and PrintWriter from that Vector<Connections>, where Connections is the class that holds socket, bufferedreader and printwriter, I send to selected clients the "ver" string and when a client responds with his version the string is first caught in the ThreadedServer while loop
while ((temp = br.readLine()) != null)instead of the GUI form class or any other class that implements the behavior.
The client should send twice the response. Why is that? And why is firstly caught in the server then in the loop that sended the "ver" command.
Is there a way to avoid this? I mean can I get the response in the method that asked for that version first not in the threaded server that holds all the connections?

1) What will happen ?Depends on what your code does.
2) Will both clients get their own objects seperately ?Depends on what your code does. Remote objects can have an 'id'. If the ids are the same then the same object is produced If not then different objects.
It is likely that your code is using different objects, but that is only a guess.
3) How do they track the use of a method in the remote object ?How does "who" track it? And why would it matter?
A client doesn't 'track' code in a remote object. Basically a RMI proxy sends a message to the RMI server. The RMI server gets the message and processes it. The act of processing causes the object method on the server to be called. When that method exits a message is sent back to the client. At that time the client returns from the method that it called. Notice that the client doesn't do anything with the server code all it does is wait for the message to come back. Does that answer your question?

How do I reset my apple id security question with out a rescue email

How do I reset my apple id security question with out a rescue email?

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.

Problem in creating client side PDF with image using flex and AlivePD

I need a favor I am creating client side PDF with image using flex and AlivePDF for a web based application. Images have been generated on that pdf but it is creating problem for large size images as half of the image disappeared from that pdf.I am taking the image inside a canvas . How do i control my images so that they come fit on that pdf file for any image size that i take.
Thanks in advance
Atishay

I am having a similar and more serious problem. It takes a
long time to execute, but even attaching a small image balloons the
pdf to 6MB plus. After a few images it gets up to 20MB. These are
100k jpeg files being attached. The resulting PDF is too large to
email or process effectively. Does anyone know how to reduce
size/processing?

Strategy Plan with task list

Hi all,
can any one help me?
I create a strategy plan with one maintenance item and one task list, with one task list item, for example. After scheduling I get a maintenance order with two items. One item from the task list and one from the maintenance item and it´s necessary to confirm both order items.
It´s possible to create a maintenance order with only items from the task list?
Thank you for your support
Detlev

Detlev,
The PM/CS Order operations should only come from the task list that is assigned to the maintenance item.
If you are getting additional operations than are on the task list then its possible that you have:
- a system bug
- developed some new functionality

I have tried everything I know to retrieve the iPhoto Library app. I detest this new Photo app, which obviously wasn't designed with photographers in mind. I desperately need help in retrieving the old app and have not been able to do it so far.

I have tried everything I know to retrieve the iPhoto Library app. I detest this new Photo app, which obviously wasn't designed with photographers in mind. I desperately need help in retrieving the old app and have not been able to do it so far. I have gone to my app folder and tried to update my iPhoto Library. I have gone to my trash and brought it over to my desktop and still cannot use it. Please help!

Try this fix discovered by User photosb189:
From Finder, hold down the option key on your keyboard and click on the Go menu at the top of the screen
Select Library from the drop down menu
Then navigate to Application Support > iLifeAssetManagement > assets
Right click on the 'sub' folder and choose Compress
Drag the resulting zip file to your Desktop (as a backup)
Go to your System Preferences and choose iCloud
Turn OFF the iCloud Photos option
Go back to Library > Application Support and DELETE the iLifeAssetManagement folder
Now, in System Preferences, turn the iCloud Photos option ON
iPhoto should now be able to launch. Give it enough time to re-download your Photo Stream content. if you are missing any of your My Photo Stream photos (more than 30 days old), unzip the sub folder on your desktop and drag that into iPhoto.

All of a sudden can't receive email on Mail client. Sessions with service provider (att/yahoo) and Apple have yielded no results! Recently upgraded to Lion, but have received email since. Anyone having the same problem. Apple says service provider problem, service provider say it's the mail client. Anyone had this problem???

No. My frustration with the problem just led me to begin the process convert all my email to a gmail client. However, after some time all my mail with att/yahoo has been coming through as before. Go figure. Still will convert to gmail.
