Controlling 3 pumps in a network

Hi,
I want to control 3 syringe pump (2 New era ne-500 and a ne-1000) in a network.
Now, I am using a NI driver to control a single pump but I'm not sure if I can use this driver
for the 3 pumps. I'm a beginner in labview and need help.
the manual is attached.
thx a lot

Hi,
I may be able to help you - outside of labview.
I sell an application called SyringePumpPro whose purpose is to control multiple New Era syringe pumps via RS232.
As I understand it, the VI is for a single pump, and unsupported.If you want to control 3 New Era Pumps then head over to SyringePumpPro and download the free trail.
I am monitoring these forums to see if there is a large enough market for me to create an up to date VI that supports multiple pumps. If you are interested please leave a message via my site. I have not setup labview and tried the VI that's available - I have a page on my site where I collate what I currently know about the VI from communicating with folks in the same position as you..
If you need to know more about communicating with the pumps - by all means post here or email via my site. I have a lot of experience writing software to communicate with them. As it would happen, today I am testing the next Version of SyringePumpPro using your same pump network - 2 Ne-500's and a single NE-1000.
Good luck

Data Pump Export error - network mounted path

Hi,
Please have a look at the data pump error i am getting while doing export. I am running on version 11g . Please help with your feedback..

DBMS_DATAPUMP - can it pump to a network drive?

I'm trying to execute a PL/SQL block that looks like this:
DECLARE
PUMP_HANDLE NUMBER := 0;
STATE_OF_JOB VARCHAR2(30) := 'UNKNOWN';
FULL_STATUS KU$_STATUS := NULL;
BEGIN
PUMP_HANDLE := DBMS_DATAPUMP.OPEN ('EXPORT','TABLE');
DBMS_DATAPUMP.ADD_FILE (HANDLE => PUMP_HANDLE, FILENAME => 'b13.dmp', DIRECTORY => 'DARREN_S_2ND_DIR', FILESIZE => '500MB', FILETYPE => DBMS_DATAPUMP.KU$_FILE_TYPE_DUMP_FILE);
END;
And the ADD_FILE line returns this stack trace:
ORA-39001: invalid argument value
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SYS_ERROR", line 79
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_DATAPUMP", line 2486

DARREN_S_2ND_DIR was created like this, where H: is a network drive (that the database server has access to, obviously):
create or replace directory DARREN_S_2ND_DIR as 'H:\DMORBY\GRANULAR_BACKUP';
It seems to work okay when a different directory that is created as a local directory on the server. (It's Oracle 10g on Windows Server 2003.)
Is it possible that creating a directory on a network drive is the problem, or have I missed something else?

Go to task manager and see who is running the oracle.exe process. Or check the services applet and look at the "Log On As" for your db service. If it's you as well, then I dunno. If it's Local System, then you need to modify the service to Log On As a real account with privs to that drive. After you do that, shutdown the database and restart the service.
Edit:
And of course you may need to change ownership of all the database files, as well.

Problem controlling peristaltic pump

We are tyring out out labveiw 9.0 to determine if we want to use it to control instruments for our epxeriments and are having allot of trouble hooking up our peristaltic pump to the computer. It is a ismatec reglo digital pump, which labview does not have a plug and play driver for.
Instead we downloaded the labveiw driver provided by isamtec, but have not been able to get it to work since we cannot find any directions on how to install and operate a 2nd party driver. The following error message keeps coming up whenever we try to plug the pump in.
Error -1073807202 occurred at Property Node (arg 1) in VISA Configure Serial Port (Instr).vi->RegloPumpenDriver.vi->Controlling_the_Pump_Reglo_D.vi->Reglo Digital.vi
Does anyone know how to hook up this type of insturment to labveiw?
Thanks

Hi
The explanation for that error code is:
LabVIEW: (Hex 0xBFFF009E) VISA or a code library required by VISA could not be located or loaded. This is usually due to a required driver not being installed on the system.
=========================
VISA: (Hex 0xBFFF009E) A code library required by VISA could not be located or loaded.
I had a look at the driver and it was written for LabVIEW 6.2 so some thing will have changed in LabVIEW 2009. The Driver consists of a number of VIs (programs) that call a lower level driver, NI-VISA. What version of VISA do you have installed? You can check that in the Measurement and Automation Explorer (MAX) under "Software".

How would you use these Apple devices to create the best network?

I have the following devices and want to create the best network for my 3 story home:
Time Capsule 3GB, latest generation (needs to be located on middle floor in a corner room by the Comcast modem)
Time Capsule late 2009
Airport Express 2010
More data, the devices that connect to this network:
New MacBook pro (in same room with new Time Capsule)
New iMac (in same room with Time Capsule)
2009 iMac (on second floor)
Iphone 5 and 5s
ipad Minis
ipad Airs
Apple TV second generation
I've done some testing and the signal is pretty good on the second floor (meaning that the download speeds on the second floor iMac are the same as those in the same room with the new Time Capsule). But the upstairs bedrooms have speeds cut by 50%.
There is no reasonable way to connect the new Time Capsule by ethernet to any other devices.
Would it be helpful to extend the wireless network "wirelessly" with the old Time Capsule in an area upstairs with strong signal? Would the old TC then "re-pump" the signal into the bedrooms which don't have line of sight with the new TC?
How would I best do this?
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Time Capsule 3GB, latest generation (needs to be located on middle floor in a corner room by the Comcast modem)
Time Capsule late 2009
Airport Express 2010
So, the old Time Capsule and AirPort Express are near the new Time Capsule and connected to it with an Ethernet cable.....or are the old Time Capsule and Express not even in use at all?
Would it be helpful to extend the wireless network "wirelessly" with the old Time Capsule in an area upstairs with strong signal?
While it would be better if you could connect the old Time Capsule to the new Time Capsule using a wired Ethernet connection, the old Time Capsule might help things out a bit in the bedroom area if it is located where it can receive a strong wireless signal from the new Time Capsule.
This is one of those situations where performance cannot be predicted and you simply have to try it out in your home to see how well it will work. It could not hurt to use the old TC to extend the signal wirelessly to the bedroom area, if you want to give that a try.
You did not mention the AirPort Express, but it could possibly be located downstairs if you need more wireless signal coverage in a given area. The trick again, is to find a location where the Express can both receive a strong wireless signal and also provide additional wireless coverage.
Setting up the old Time Capsule or Express will only take a few minutes if you want to give things a try. Post back if you need more details on "how" to do this.

How to find table with colum that not support by data pump network_link

Hi Experts,
We try to import a database to new DB by data pump network_link.
as oracle statement, Tables with columns that are object types are not supported in a network export. An ORA-22804 error will be generated and the export will move on to the next table. To work around this restriction, you can manually create the dependent object types within the database from which the export is being run.
My question, how to find these tables with colum that that are object types are not supported in a network export.
We have LOB object and oracle spital SDO_GEOMETRY object type. our database size is about 300G. nornally exp will takes 30 hours.
We try to use data pump with network_link to speed export process.
How do we fix oracle spital users type SDO_GEOMETRY issue during data pump?
our system is 32 bit window 2003 and 10GR2 database.
Thanks
Jim

Hi,
I remember there being issues with sdo_geometry and DataPump. You may want to contact oracle support with this issue.

CReating a home music network server

Hello folks I am after some advice.
We are due to move house, and this is a significant move up the ladder with a conservatory, living room, dining room and three bedrooms.
I currently have a small home network of an intel iMac with USB harddrive with the music for itunes it. And I have an iBook. Currently the iMac feeds my home stereo via optical out into a dac.
In the new house I intend to have the iMac in the dining room and use the ibook to stream music to the two hifis one in the conservatory and one in the sitting room. This will be accomplished with two Airport expresses and my wireless internet router.
Looking around eBay I find the price of G3 Powermacs have dropped madly to around 50 quid. This is almost to good to be true as I have room under the stairs in the new place to stick it so here are my questions.
1. Are internal harddrives still available for a G3 powermac?
2. All the ones I have seen have OS9 on them, I would simply be using it as back up and music storage to be accessed from my iMac and iBook, will this be possible with OS9 on?
3. I do not intend attaching a keyboard, mouse and screen to the mac, or at least in the long term, is there any way I can VNC to OS9 from OSX? or is there another way?
4. Will OS9 be stable enough, i.e. I would want it running 24/7
5. Finally would there be anyway to tell itunes the music is on a network in OS9 and would there be any way to have the G3 show up on my macs permanently, i.e. I don't have to keep hitting 'go' and pray it shows up? (At work for instance network places on the PC just show up on the desktop as long as they are available.)
Any help or advice greatly appreciated.
BTW What I am looking at is keeping my iMac free for other things, for instance if I want to play a computer game on my iMac whilst my wife listening to streamed music in the living room. And secondly I want this to be as cheap as possibly so no Squeezeboxes!
Cheers

Alas I see one error of my way, ideally I don't want to be streaming music with VNC, I want to be able to pick music on my ibook to be pumped from the G3. I find with the normal network sharing you can't search tunes which is really bad so I am hoping the G3 will be the actual storage area for itunes music and will be able to stream from the G3 but controlled form the iBook.

Getting Locations and various WIFI networks under better control...

I have several networks that I use. I have a strong preference for some reason to use OpenDNS.
-Home 1 (Airport Extreme, WPA2 Personal, Static IP although DHCP for everyone else - Bonjour printer attached to AE)
-Home 2 (Airport Extreme, WPA2 Personal, Static IP although DHCP for everyone else)
School (802.1X, WPA Enterprise)
-Work (Linksys Wireless G Access Point, Static IP, their own DNS servers (can I still use OpenDNS?), primarily a wired Windows workgroup, but all on the same network, so I can still use Bonjour to get a shared printer)
-Random networks....just want to access them and use DHCP with OpenDNS.
So is it possible to cut down on some of the locations? I usually have to select my location when I move, and recently have had to additionally select the WiFi network from the Airport Menu, it has always been automatic I think. I would love a seemless network switch based on which networks are found in range... is this possible without 3rd party, or do I need to go that direction?
My iPhone does this beautifully and automatically... how can my MBP do this? (exceptions being printers and that iPhone will not connect to my school's primary network that I mentioned above, I use their secondary network which I have to lease for an hour at a time - I'm pumped to have my legit 2.0 firmware).
Thanks for your help.

I just erase and installed Leopard on my angry MBP that always gets ****** off (it's been through 3-4 migrations and restores). I spared no mercy to preferences or backed up programs, all from scratch, just documents, music, movies etc. in my home folder.
So I got to play with a very fresh and clean list of settings for the first time in a while.
My iPhone... manages manual IPs and server settings based on the WiFi network that I am on. When I am at home on one network, I have DHCP with a manual address. When I'm at work, I have a different gateway and static IP address.
Network manual IPs do not change with Leopard do they? The way that I have to manage my static IPs right now is by creating new locations and manually switching at each location. Isn't there some way for this to happen automatically.
I wake up, check my email at home, on a static IP. Boom.
I go to work, open my laptop, get on the internet. Boom.
Forgetting locations, is this possible? My iPhone does it without complaint...

Data pump using network_link problem

Hi,
I defined a database link for the sys user as:
create database link xe_remote
connect to hr
identified by hr
using 'xe_remote'
and it works fine:
select * from dual@xe_remote
D
X
Then, tried to import with data pump the user hr from xe_remote in the local system, but it seemed that the database link wasn't valid anymore:
impdp system/pwd schemas=hr network_link=xe_remote remap_schema=hr:hr_remote table_exists_action=replace
ORA-39001: invalid argument value
ORA-39200: Link name "xe_remote" is invalid

// *Cause: A Data Pump job initiated be a user with
// EXPORT_FULL_DATABASE/IMPORT_FULL_DATABASE roles specified a
// network link that did not correspond to a user with
// equivalent roles on the remote database.
// *Action: Specify a network link that maps users to identically privileged

Solution:
Create a db link from hr_remote to hr
or
Create a db link from system to system (I think, it's easier, because you have all rights...)

Database Upgrade using Data Pump

Hi,
I am moving my database from a Windows 2003 server to a Windows 2007 server. At the same time I am upgrading this database from 10g to 11gR2(11.2.0.3).
therefore I am using the export / import method of upgrade ( via Data Pump not the old exp/imp ).
I have successfully exported by source database and have created the empty shell database ready to take the import. However I have a couple of queries
Q1. regarding all the SYSTEM objects from the source database. How will they import given that the new target database already has a SYSTEM tablespace
I am guessing I need to use the TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION option for the import. However should I set this to APPEND, SKIP, REPLACE or TRUNCATE - which is best ?
Q2. I am planning to slightly change the directory structure on the new database server - would it therefore be better to pre-create the tablespaces or leave this to the import but use the REMAP DATAFILE option - what is everyone's experience as to which is the better way to go ? Again if I pre-create the tablespaces, how do I inform the import to ignore the creation of the tablespaces
Q3. these 2 databases are on the same network, so in theorey instead of a manual export, copy of the dump file to the new server and then the import, I could use a Network Link for Import. I was just wondering where there any con's of this method over using the explicit export dump file ?
thanks,
Jim

Jim,
Q1. regarding all the SYSTEM objects from the source database. How will they import given that the new target database already has a SYSTEM tablespace
I am guessing I need to use the TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION option for the import. However should I set this to APPEND, SKIP, REPLACE or TRUNCATE - which is best ?If all you have is the base database and nothing created, then you can do the full=y. In fact, this is probably what you want. The system tablespace will be there so when Data Pump tries to create it , it will just fail that create statement. Nothing else will fail. In most cases, your system tables will already be there, and this is ok too. If you do schema mode imports, you will miss out on some of the other stuff.
Q2. I am planning to slightly change the directory structure on the new database server - would it therefore be better to pre-create the tablespaces or leave this to the import but use the REMAP >DATAFILE option - what is everyone's experience as to which is the better way to go ? Again if I pre-create the tablespaces, how do I inform the import to ignore the creation of the tablespacesIf the directory structure is different (which they usually are) then there is no easier way. You can run impdp but with sqlfile and you can say - include=tablespace. This will give you all of the create tablespace commands in a txt file and you can edit the text file to change what ever you want to change. You can tell datapump to skip the tablespace creation by using - exclude=tablespace
Q3. these 2 databases are on the same network, so in theorey instead of a manual export, copy of the dump file to the new server and then the import, I could use a Network Link for Import. I >was just wondering where there any con's of this method over using the explicit export dump file ?The only con could be if you have a slow network. This will make it slower, but if you have to copy the dumpfile over the same network, then you will still see the same basic traffic. The pros are that you don't have to have extra disk space. Here is how I look at it.
1. you need XX GB for the source database
2. you need YY GB for the source dumpfile
3. you need YY GB for the target dumpfile that you copy
4. you need XX GB for the target databse.
By doing network you get rid if 2*YY GB for the dumpfiles.

Import Data over network link in oracle 11g

We want to take export of the OND schema in production database and
import it to the OND schema in UAT database over a network
link by using data pump,in Oracle 11g.Kindly share the steps.

Scenario:
Directly importing the TEST01 schema in the production database (oraodrmu) to test database oraodrmt, over
a network by using database link and data pump in Oracle 11g.
Note: When you perform an import over a database link, the import source is a database, not a dump file set, and the data is imported to the connected database instance.
Because the link can identify a remotely networked database, the terms database link and network link are used interchangeably.

Failover Cluster Manager - Partioned Networks Server 2012

Hello,
I have a DR cluster that I am trying to validate. It has 3 nodes. Each has a teamed vEthernet adapter for Cluster Communications and Live Migration. I can start cluster service on 2 of the 3 nodes without the networks entering a partioned state. However,
I can only ping the I
Ps for those adapters from their own server . Also, It doesn't matter which 2 nodes are brought up. Any order will produce the same results. Validation gives the following error for connections between all nodes:
Network interfaces DRHost3.m1ad.xxxxxx.biz - vEthernet
(vNIC-LiveMig) and DRHost2.m1ad.xxxxxx.biz - vEthernet (vNIC-LiveMig) are on
the same cluster network, yet address 192.168.xxx.xx is not reachable from
192.168.xxx.xx using UDP on port 3343.
Update: I have created a specific inbound rule on the server firewalls for port 3343. The networks no longer show as partitioned. However, I still receive the same errors about communication on port 3343 to and from all nodes on the LiveMig and ClustPriv
networks. Any help would be appreciated.

When does capture/pump/replicat process do a checkpoint?

Dear Guru,
May someone help me to know when capture/pump/replicat process does a checkpoint? There are 2 things which made me confused.
- CHECKPOINTSECS parameter: There is no setting in the parameter file, that means it will be set by default (10s)
- One document says that checkpoints are based on transaction boundaries, that means checkpoint will happened by the end of each transaction
In my source db, there was a long running transaction lasting for 1 hour and already committed and written to the local trail files. Then the pump process have started to read the trail files to pump to target. My concern is when the capture/pump/replicat process do a checkpoint? 10s or 1 hour?
One thing is I often see the value of "Time since chkpt" in the output of "Info all" command is more than 10s. If they do a checkpoint every 10s, how could the value of "Time since chkpt" be more than 10s? I think that maybe the term "chkpt" of "Time since chkpt" is of database transaction, not of GoldenGate. However I'm not sure. It made me really confused.
Here is the output of "Info all" command:
Program Status Group Lag Time Since Chkpt
EXTRACT RUNNING PUMP6 00:17:07 00:04:29
My system profile:
Source:
OS: OEL5 64bit
DB: Oracle 11gR2 (11.2.0.2)
GG: 11gR1 (11.1)
Target:
OS: Solaris 10
DB: Oracle 11gR2 (11.2.0.3)
GG: 11gR1 (11.1)
Thanks for your help in advance.

CHECKPOINTSECS defines how often an extract makes its regular checkpoints. An extract will make a checkpoint every 10 seconds if this value is set to 10 irrespective of a transaction that is running for 1 hour. Extract also writes commit checkpoints when a transaction is committed.
In the example where your Pump is showing time since checkpoint as greater than 10 could have a problem at the network level or issues with the remote trail..
that is my observation as I had an extract that was being shown as RUNNING but time since last checkpoint was in hours and when i checked the report file, it had an error.
