Deleted Objects is empty. Why?

Hello. Today i've faced with the situation, when there is a need to recover a deleted object in Active Directory. Being guided by the instructions I've got an access to hidden volume DeletedObjects, but it was empty. Tombstonelifetime parameter is 180,
so what's wrong with AD configuration? Domain has 2012R2 level.

Also you can use below one liner.
ldifde -x -d "cn=deleted objects,dc=contoso,dc=com" -f delobjs.ldf
In addition have a look.

Why isn't storage increased if a film has been deleted and trash emptied?

Why isn't storage increased if a video has been deleted and trash emptied?

This is very strange. Here are two screen shots from my computer, before and after deleting a 14 gB folder. Notice that the number in Used: is 14 gB less, as it should be. What numbers are you comparing?

BW variable: Inconsistent in loading. please check use of deleted objects

Hi Experts,
I encountered an error and can not solve it following OSS note.
When I create a variable in query definition for an infoobject, it prompts an error dialog 'Inconsistent in loading. please check use of deleted objects'.
I checked the OSS notes 792779, there is a such description:
The variable existing in the table RSZGLOBV, but not existing in the tables RSZELTDIR or RSZCOMPDIR have inconsistent definition. These situation may return 2 different error messages. When a variable is missing in RSZELTDIR table (or in both together), an attempt to expand a list of variable under a corresponding InfoProvider or a list of text/formula variables will return a message 'Inconsistency in loading...'. All variables which are created for corresponding InfoProvider, text/formula variable are not available. When a variable is missing in the RSZCOMPDIR table only the error message is 'Missing UID XXXXXX... in RSZCOMPDIR! You may continue to work, but this component is not loaded' in Query Designer
But I checked these tables RSZGLOBV and RSZELTDIR and RSZCOMPDIR. I can find a variable for this infoobject, such as TC_SREG, in these tables. That is, this variable should be availbale in the query definition.
I don't know why.
My sap bw is 3.1, without the program 'ANALYZE_RSZ_TABLES'.
Many thanks for you help.

Hi,
While installing business content make grouping as Data Flow before and collection mode as 'Automatic'. Then expand the Tree in the tree you can see Info Object Catalogue. All installed and activated object will be in green (Active Mode). those will be normally unchecked to install anyway cross check and if found anything check deselect them. Go for Simulation Installation to identify unforeseen errors. Install the same and activate entire data-flow.
Hope your issue will be resolve
Thanks

UnitOfWorkChangeSet and deleted objects

I would like use the UnitOfWorkChangeSet for auditing changes made to the objects. It seams that the UnitOfWorkChangeSet contains new objects and updated objects, but I cannot find deleted objects. The function UnitOfWorkChangeSet.getDeletedObjects always returns an empty set.
1) How to get deleted objects?
2) Where can I find the best information about usage of the change sets?
3) Can I process the change set after calling the method commit or is it better do it in any SessionEvent method (if so - which method should I use?)?
Thank you in advance for any help
Jan Kostrhun

Hello Jan,
For effeciency reasons the deleted objects are only placed in the UnitOfWorkChangeSet in the case of Cache Coordination (Cache Synchronization). If your application is not configured to use Cache Coordination the deleted objects can be found in unitOfWork.getObjectsDeletedDuringCommit(). Please note that this is an internal method in TopLink that may change in future released.
Accessing the UnitOfWorkChangeSet after you have called commit is fine.

Error - Trying to delete objects (Positions)

Via Report RHRHDL00, I am trying to delete a few positions, I created for Testing.
I am getting error u201C STOP: The information entered is incorrect, Cost Center missing . Please contact your SAP Rep before completing this.
I am getting the same error via Tcode RE_RHRHDL00
Why should I get this error, when I am just deleting objects?
Please help.

You can use the above report to delete the OM object. However first remove the OM and PA integration if the postion is still assigned and then execute.
In case you want to delete the person completely you can use the program RPUDELPN.

SPAU. Adjusting Deleted Objects

Hi all,
My manager has asked me to review SPDD and SPAU after an upgrade. In Deleted Objects, I have seen some dictionary objects in particular we have several "Table Indexes" here.
Why has SAP deleted these table index? I haven't seen other changes in the tables that justify the index deletion...
Is there some habitual process for adjusting the deleted objects after the upgrade?
Its urgent please.
Thanks to all for helping me.
I.

Hi Prabhu,
Thank you for your help. I haven't found any TR for the table of these index (neither SAPKxxxx nor other) although I have been searching directly in E071K (TRKORR = *, OBJNAME = tab_name).
Otherwise, my main bother is that without these index we get some performance problems or if some of the other deleted objects are still in use in any bespoken development.
Do you now if during an upgrade SAP makes some checking before to delete the deleted objects (use references of some like this). Relative to this I found the report RADFDSAV but I haven't found information about it.
Thank you in advance.

Deleted objects and nstombstone objectclass

Hi,
When i delete objects in DS5.0 with ldapdelete, DS5.0 create an objectclass nstombstone for all the deleted objects.
I can see them with ldapsearch ... (objectclass=nstombstone). Then, the size of the file id2entry.db3 increase.
I use a multi master replication between two servers and the id2entry's file sizes increases on the two server.
Why does DS5.0 create this objects and how can i delete them ?
Thank you for you help,
Guillaume

Directory Server 5.0 provides support for MultiMaster Replication. As changes can be done on 2 masters as the same time, the server may have to resolve some conflicts and therefore must maintain an historic of all changes that occured. The way to keep track of deleted entries is by marking them with a special objectclass and making sure they are not returned in regular searches (actually the only way to retrieve them is by specifying a filter objectclass=nsTombstone).
The server does some cleanup on a regular basis and has a thread that removes very old deleted entries. By default, these entries are removed after a week. You can reduce this age by changing the nsds5ReplicaPurgeDelay attribute value but note that this will also reduce the accepted delay of broken replication (and the age of a restored backup).
The result of setting a too small value would be that in case of problem, all the consumers will need to be re-initialized.

Ludovic.

Difference in the count of deleted objects in recyclebin and user objects

Hi
I m using Oracle 10G in windoes 2003 server. We queried on the recycle bin and the user objects for the deleted objects and found that the count is different. Here are the queries which i used to check.
1. select object_name from user_objects where object_name like 'BIN$%';
2. select * from recyclebin;
When i ran 1. in our user mshist and msmodel, the counts were 343 rows in mshist and 514 rows in msmodel.
when i ran 2. in our user mshist and msmodel, the counts were 353 rows in mshist and 530 rows in msmodel.
Kindly advise me why exactly is thr the difference as they both are checking the deleted objects in a schema.
Thanks
Ram

Join to views and use MINUS to get the list of nonviewed objects and their types

View deleted objects - LDP.EXE

Hi, last week I deleted some disabled users and computers. My domain/forest functional level is Windows Server 2008 R2 without enabled AD Recycle Bin feature. Having started ldp.exe utility on domain controller with all FSMO roles on it, I noticed that
none of deleted users/computers was listed in deleted objects container in ldp.exe. There were only DNS PTR records and some GPOs listed. A few years ago I tested ldp.exe utility and I was able to find deleted test user. We have
Backup Exec software as main backup software - used for backing up AD, Exchange, SQL . . . but I just want to know why this happens with ldp.exe.

Hi,
Checkout the below link to search for deleted objects in Active Directory,
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/284928/en-us
From the above link, in the fifth point (5. In the Filter box, click (isDeleted=*).), replace the (isDeleted=*) query to
(&(objectclass=user)(isdeleted=*)) to filter deleted users.
From (isDeleted=*) query, iam unable to find the deleted users from the large list, using the second one I am able to find the users.

Deleting objects in transport request

Hello,
I made the changes in InfoCube in developer system and included those changes in a transport request. I didn't release this transport. Then I realized that those changes must be reverted.
I know what I have to do. First of all I need to change manually InfoCube and then remove objects from transport request.
I have doubt about deleting objects. In transport request there is a lot of object which Iu2019ve never changed such as InfoObjects and InfoArea.
Can I safely remove these objects? Why these objects are attached to my transport request?
I checked them and last change was made by another user.
Thank you for your time.

Hi,
I don't think there is any version comparison available with target system like R/3 reports. You will manually have to compare the properties.
If you have lot of objects and do not want to loose any changes then you can even think of reverse transport from production system to development system for selected objects.
Now about locking the remaining objects you can open the TR through SE09 in change mode and then select the required items and from the tool bar you can directly lock all the items in single go.

Durgesh.

How to determine deleted objects in a transport

Hi
I create a new report Z_TEST_1 and assign this one to a new transport request.
Now I rename this report to Z_TEST_1B
In my transport are two entries:
-Z_TEST_1
-Z_TEST_2
Now I read this objects with function module TR_READ_COMM
Afterwards I want to analyse the objects of this transport
But how can I see which objects exists and which not?
I only need the (still) existing objects (in my test case: Z_TEST_2)
I don't want to check every single object if this object still exists. I know I could check the entry in table TRDIR (for reports).
But there are a lot more object kinds in my transport (function modules, dictionary objects, forms, table keys)....
Does anyone have a simple solution for this problem?
Thanks
Andy

Hello There.
SE03 is for finding the existing objects according to your first question (for function modules, reports, etc).
As your object is not imported or transported.
You need to find your deleted objects in Transaction SE95.
In the window beneath,
1. Go to window, Reset Objects.
2. Check the deleted objects.
3. You can also mention your request or package.
4. Execute.
5. Go to Deleted objects node.
6. Navigate to the node desired.
7. You can also find the request related to that business object by clicking on find requests.
These are the logs.
If you have already tried out then its good or else give feedback.
Good Luck & Regards.

When deleting bookmarks from Firefox, why does the program respond differently on similar installs to different computers all running OS X?

On the subject of bookmarks...
The following procedure works for deleting bookmarks on my MacBook Pro, my iMac, and my Mac mini...
If the bookmark is itself a tab on the toolbar, right click on it and select delete by highlighting delete in the drop down menu that appears.
The following procedure works for deleting bookmarks on my MacBook Pro, but not my iMac or Mac mini...
If the toolbar tab is actually a folder containing bookmarks and possibly more folders, left click on the toolbar tab to open a drop down menu of other bookmarks/folders, highlight the one you want to delete, then right click on it and select delete by highlighting delete in the drop down menu.
On the iMac and Mac mini, right clicking on an item in the drop down menu of bookmarks/folders has no effect. It does not produce the additional drop down menu at all.
I can find no place to adjust this as a setting in preferences or anywhere else. Can you tell me why I am seeing a different response from the Firefox program on my MacBook Pro than I get from my other Macs?
All Macs are configured similarly and running OS X 10.6.5. All have Firefox 3.6.13 installed.
I realize there are many other ways to delete bookmarks from Firefox. My question is not about how to delete bookmarks, but rather why am I seeing the differing behavior from Firefox in other installs. It may well prove to be an issue within OS X rather than Firefox.

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes" then try to disable this feature.
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history": [ ] "Clear history when Firefox closes"
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Clear+Recent+History
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
See "Creating a profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem
