Copy items to large number of users

I am a wee bit new to ARD and have (what I'm sure is) an easy question. I'm trying to copy a file to a specific path inside each user's home folder. is there a way to do this in ARD without having to type in each user's LDAP account name in each of the paths?

This is ABSOLUTELY possible.
We used this at my school to copy files to a PARTITION which was not the boot disk.
The ARD computer is turned off and unaccessible at the moment, but the functionality is in the COPY ITEMS interface.
Select a group of computers in the Scanner, add them to All Computers. Select the Targets and then choose the COPY button on the top of the screen. The first PULLDOWN menu has a choice which will let you enter a PATH to a directory.
To get the path, I used ARD to control one of the targets and I then dragged the partition into Terminal to get its path as Text. I copied that on the client, then exported the clipboard to the ARD control machine and then I could use the path to target the copy.
Of course, the partition and path name need to be the same on all the client computers.
Good luck. This is DEFINITELY POSSIBLE.
Just a caveat though, it uses MULTICASTING to broadcast the files out over your entire network. We have IP phones here and trying to push out 50GB of data as multicast is crashing our phones. I'm searching this message board to find a way to PREVENT MULTICASTING.

SSO with large number of users

Hi,
We want to implement SSO using user mapping because we have different user ids from system to system.
We have large number of users in our system, how can we implement user mapping.
Is there anyway to write a program so that it can take care of user mapping, if yes? can you please give overview so that i can dig in to it.
Thanks,
Damodhar.

Hi Damodhar
User mapping can be done in the programming level. The User Management Engine in EP 6.0 provides two interfaces to access the user mapping data namely
1. IUserMappingService.
2. IUserMappingData.
You can implement these two intefaces to enable User Mapping. Please refer to the following link for further details.

UserIdentityStores Creation fails in case large number at User Search Base

ou=users1,o=test contains 300 000 users.
ou=users2,o=test contains 10 users.
ou=users3,o=test contains 10 users.
If i create UserIdentityStores with ou=users1, OAM shows fails "
Failed to connect to User Identity Store.
URL or Credentials specified are invalid.
No entries were found under the User Search Base : username with attribute : ou=users1,o=test.
If i create UserIdentityStores with ou=users2, OAM shows successfully"
If i create UserIdentityStores with ou=users3, OAM shows successfully"
Configuration:
* User Name Attribute : username
* User Search Base : ou=users1,o=test
User Filter Object Classes : sso
* Group Search Base : cn=sso-group,o=test
This is ODSEE:
o=test
-- ou=users2
---- username=123
---- username=456
-- ou=users3
---- username=abc
---- username=123
-- ou=users4
-- cn=sso-group
-- ou=users1
Is it a bug with OAM when users1 had too much DN inside. I stuck 2 weeks at this step. Any advices is apprecited.
Thank you!

Thanks.
Yes, I know of that 100 column limitation. But notice that I had 79 columns. Also, it doesn't mention the fact that you can display a certain amount a column, but you are then not able to use the search bar fully.
"One interactive report per page.
100 columns can be seen using report columns. You can edit additional columns using Tree view or paginating through Report Column Attributes.
1,000,000 rows per column heading filter (if no custom LOV is specified in the column attributes).
You can edit additional columns using Tree view or paginating through Report Column Attributes."
So the issue that I have is a non documented issue, unless I'm missing something.

Setting a Default Page Filter for Large Number of Users?

Hi Everyone,
I'm currently running Oracle Business Intelligence (OBIEE) 10.1.3.3.3 and have a quick question regarding page filters.
I have a report with several page filters. One of the page filters is a multi-select filter of values A, B and C.
I want to configure my report such that all of my users who log into this report, will automatically be defaulted to the results where the page filter is pre-selected to be equaled to "A". Obviously, if the user wants to then choose another option, he/she may do so manually by toggling the page filter after the report initially renders.
The only simple way I know how to configure this is through a manual process of logging into the user's account, selecting Page Filter = 'A' for them, and saving their selections under Page Options. Once saved, there is a checkbox that I can select to make this saved selection the default home page for this report for that particular user.
The problem is that if I have several hundred users, it would be unfeasible for me to go and manually modify each user's account one by one to set the page filter = 'A' for each login.
There has to be an easier way to universally set a page filter on a certain report such that any group of users (that I can define) will see the same initial, default page filter value settings that I choose.
Does anyone know of an easier method to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Alan

Hi,
1. Please put filter value default A then when user login in OBIEE it will display always A data only.
2. Which security method are you implemented means LDAP/External table kindly conform.
If you want see the same page across all users.you have to create table in Database.
Follow below steps.
1. create table in database like below.
col1 col2
groupname Dashboard portal path
2. Create system variable Go--> Manage-->Variables --> select system variable --> New Portal Path option.
3. This variable apply in group level.
I am not sure this what your looking so far.
Award points it is useful.
Thanks,

Sending large number of emails from SharePoint

Hello,
I am in a situation where we have to develop a solution using client side/ootb features of SP 2013 to send emails to a large number of users from a SharePoint list. The list will have 10000+ user information logically grouped. The user should be able
to select anyone or many groups to send emails notification. Each group can contain close to 5000+ user emails. The list can contain email ids of people outside the organization so SP groups cannot be used. Can you suggest a clean solution that will not
have a serious performance impact? Nintex workflows can also be considered if it will not affect the performance and if it is reliable in this situation. Appreciate any pointers/approach.
Thanks,

Report the number of users who provisioned a My-site on sharepoint online?

I have a Office 365 SharePoint instance that we have activated a large number of user accounts on, I am trying to find a way to run a report that will show me the total count of users who have logged into SharePoint and provisioned a my-site. essentially
a list of the total number of my-sites and the name or ID of the user they belong to. We are trying to gauge adoption across the organization, a report like this would be really valuable. Any chance someone knows an easy solution for this?
yaddaimean

My Sites are typically located within a common location, like http://sharepoint/my/* or http://my.sharepoint.com/*
Assuming this is the case in your tenant, I would try the
Get-SPOSite cmdlet to get a list of sites that match a particular filter or pipe the results through a where clause. I've never done this myself and don't have a tenant to test against but I imagine it would look something like this:
$mysites = Get-SPOSite -Limit All | where {$_.Url -Like "http://sharepoint/my/*"}
$mysites.Count
I can't find any information about the SPOSite object. I'm assuming it has an Owner property like the SPSite object. If it does, you should be able to get a list of users who have created a My Site:
foreach ($mysite in $mysites) {
$mysite.Owner
I honestly hope this works :)

Copy item number

Hi guys,
I have following issue I need help with.
We have two sale organizations in our SAP and both uses the same sales order type (in our case ZOR) and one sales organization needs the number of items from sales order to be copied to delivery ( it means if item number in sales order is 50 the item in delivery should be 50 too).
The other sales org. wants the number of items from sales order to not be copied to delivery. I know that there is some settings to allow/disallow copy item number in spro, but this setting is not sales organization dependant, it depends just on type of sales order. And I don´t want to create two sales order types, I need to have just one.
Don´t you know if there is some user exit or whatever I could use to have one sales order type and different settings for copy item number.
Thanks for any idea.

Hi Malach,
You can maintain routine as per your requirement in VOFM and it should be plase into copying requirement at Item level in the Sales to delivery copy controls.

How to copy very large number of files from one drive to another???

I'm a fairly experienced Mac user for serveral years but this problem really has me stumped.
I'm trying to copy or move 152,000 files from one external drive to another drive. I can highlight (Cmd - A) all the files on the first drive and drag them to the second drive but Finder always shows 32,768 files being copied no matter what I try.
Any and all suggestions on how to move/copy a large number of files from one external drive to another are greatefully appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Mack

I would use the command line tool rsync.
For instance with: rsync -av source-dir destination-dir
-a The files are transferred in "archive" mode, which ensures that symbolic links, devices, attributes, permissions, ownerships, etc. are preserved in the transfer.
-v Verbose, so you see the progress.
Rsync is fast and really, really powerful and many times used in shell scripts and the like to automatically backup and/or sync stuff. Google a bit for more info.

Copying large number of files with Finder

When you copy lots of files and folders with Finder, it appears to count up the number of "items" and then start copying and at the same time the number of items remaining gets smaller and smaller as the copy process proceeds.
My question is what are the "items" that Finder is referring to? I did this on a folder with several folders and files and it came up with like about 45K items, but if I open up a Terminal window and do a "find . -print | wc" I get like about 155K lines, which I would have thought were the "items" that Finder is referring to, but obviously not.
So what is it that Finder means when it talks about "items" when copying things around?
If it matters I was copying the files from external drive to another external drive. And both external drives were physically attached to the two USB ports on a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.5.8
Also, is there a way to find out the number of "items" that Finder just copied as sometimes this number goes away so quickly before it registers on my eyeball/brain synapses Darn those fast computers I can go to the Finder's "Edit" menu and undo the last operation but is there somewhere that the number of items last processed can be looked at?
And one last Finder question - is the progress bar that the Copy operation shows measure the number of items or the magnitude of the amount of MB it has copied or about to copy? So a copy of two items of 10GB each would progress in three discreet jumps (0%, 50% and 100%) and go much quicker versus a copy of 10Billion items of two bytes each - even though a total of 20GB were transferred in both cases?
Thanks...
-Bob

This is a guess, but I'd think that the Finder considers a "package" to be one item, while the "find" command counts each file within a package.

Trouble copying a large number of objects using Acrobat X

Acrobat X is many times slower than Acrobat 9 when copying a large number of objects in a PDF. What used to take one second in Acrobat 9, now takes upwards of 45 seconds or longer in Acrobat X and often causes the application to crash. I am using 10.2.1 on OS X 10.6.8. Has anyone else experienced this performace difference or have any solutions? Any thoughts on the subject would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Since you do not want to crop your images to a square 1:1 aspect ratio changing the canvas to be square will not make your images square they will retain their Aspect Ratio and image size will be changer to fit within your 1020 px square. There will be a border or borders on a side or two borders on opposite sides. You do not need a script because Photoshop ships with a Plug-in script to be used in Actions. What is good about Plugins is the support Actions. When you record the action the plug-in during action recording records the setting you use in its dialog into the actions step. When the Action is played the Plug-in use the recorded setting an bypasses displaying its dialog. So the Action can be Batch. The Action you would record would have two Steps. Step 1 menu File>Automate>Fit Image... in the Fit Image dialog enter 1020 in the width and height fields. Step 2 Canvas size enter 1020 pixels in width and height not relative leave the anchor point centered it you want even borders on two sides set color to white in the canvas size dialog. You can batch the action.
The above script will also work. Its squares the document then re-sizes to 1020x1020 the action re-sizes the image to fit with in an area 1020 x 1020 then add any missing canvas. The script like the action only process one image so it would also need to be batched. Record the script into and action and batch the action. As the author wrote. The script re size canvas did not specify an anchor point so the default center anchor point is uses like the action canvas will be added to two sides.

Need to make large number of items inactive - Inventory

Hi,
Is there an api or something I can use to make a large number of items inactive in Inventory?
Thanks
Roald

1. First create a status that makes the ietm as inactive (or use inactive status).
2. For one item, you can go to item screen and tools-->pending status
3. Enter the date and status (inactive). From when you want this item to be status to be implmented.
4. Run Update item statuses with pending statuses in that organization.
You can use dataloader for a lot of items (www.dataload.net)
If you think it is too much, you can take a look at which columns are populated from the screen and populate the same in the table (there is no API).
Run the program and all the items selected should be item inactivated.
Thanks
Nagamohan

How to set the item property to restrict the user to not to copy from above

Hi Guru's,
I have a requirement like, There were two items on the form name email Id, Confirm email Id.
I have to ristrict the user to not to copy from email Id item.. make him/her to enter the value into confirm email id item field manually.
How to set the item property to restrict the user to not to copy from above item and paste it in this item.
Please help.
Thanks!!

Just an opinion here, but that is about the dumbest requirement I have ever seen.
I am always annoyed by web sites that ask me to enter my email twice. I ALWAYS copy the email address from the original entry and paste it into the second one.
People enter their email addresses so often, it takes a real klutz to not get it right. And what makes you think that if they enter it twice, that they won't enter it wrong both times anyway???

How to handle a large number of query parameters for a Browse screen

I need to implement an advanced search functionality in a browse screen for a large table. The table has 80+ columns and therefore will have a large number of possible query parameters. The screen will be built on a modeled query with all
of the parameters marked as optional. Given the large number of parameters, I am thinking that it would be better to use a separate screen to receive the parameter input from the user, rather than a Popup. Is it possible for example to have a search
button on the browse screen (screen a) open a new screen (screen b) that contains all of the search parameters, have the user enter the parameters they want, then click a button to send all of the parameters back to screen a where the query is executed and
the search results are returned to the table control? This would effectively make screen b an advanced modal window for screen a. In addition, if the user were to execute the query, then want to change a parameter, they would need to be able to
re-open screen b and have all of their original parameters still set. How would you implement this, or otherwise deal with a large number of optional query parameters in the html client? My initial thinking is to store all of the parameters in
an object and use beforeShown/afterClosed to pass them between the screens, but I'm not quite sure how to make that work. TIA

Wow Josh, thanks. I have a lot of reading to do. What I ultimately plan to do with this (my other posts relate to this too), is have a separate screen for advanced filtering that also allows the user to save their queries if desired.
There is an excellent way to get at all of the query information in the Query_Executed() method. I just put an extra Boolean parameter in the query called "SaveQuery" and when true, the Query_Executed event triggers an entry into a table with
the query name, user name, and parameter value pairs that the user entered. Upon revisiting the screen, I want the user to be able to select from their saved queries and load all the screen parameters (screen properties) from their selected query.
I almost have it working. It may be as easy as marking all of the screen properties that are query parameters as screen parameters (not required), then passing them in from the saved query data (filtered by username, queryname, and selected
item). I'll post an update once I get it. Probably will have some more questions as I go through it. Thanks again!
