Depo-Block resending delay

it's a simple question, i asked for a depo block for sending my laptop for tech support  (having useless HDD) im wondering if this depo block arrives for example, may 3rd, i have a limited time for sending it back?, or i can do it whenever i want? because i really need my laptop all this month, it's praticly obligatory for my informatic speciality in school, so im at the final exams and all that, and i need i, i found out i can use another HDD in it, so, going back to my point, if i get it in 3 days, can i send back the depo block in about 1 month, or it get's cancelled/not arrived status or something like that? thx for all answers!

try using applicationWillFinishLaunching isntead of applicationDidFinishLaunching and see if that yields any results

  • Invoice block for delayed delivery of goods

    Hi,
    Is it possible to block invoices with delayed goods delivery  than planned delivery date? in  SRM 5.0 ( SP07).
    I was looking for it and there is tolerance key PZ (time over run) which is applicable for CONF only.
    How could be achieved this requirement of blocking invoices which are late delivered? Any BADI ?
    Regards,
    Rahul Mandale

    Hi
    Then try using SE18 Transaction - BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI for the filter type - BUS2205 (Invoices), logic accordingly and place a custom mesaage as per your business requirement.
    Please share your detailed business requirements (functional specifications, end user requirements, if any) as well on my mail id.
    Do let me know.

  • Delayed block cleanout and how blocks actually get altered

    Hello fellow forumers...
    A question about how data|index blocks are actually changed (altered).
    Let's suppose that...
    A block B1 gets flushed to disk and is removed from the buffer cache before transaction T1, having locked some of its rows, has committed.
    Transaction T1 commits while that block is (only) on disk.
    Another transaction, T2, pulls the block from disk into the buffer cache, and realizes some of its rows were locked by T1, which, has committed.
    Delayed block cleaout occurs (thanks to T2).
    But LGWR performed it job, say, long before, while B1 was (only) on disk.
    And the redo thread is write only.
    So how does B1 gets altered ?
    I've read that T2 would do so by using information located in the undo segment that was assigned to T1.
    'Seems strange.
    Is that right ?
    Many, many thanks for your insight.

    It’s possible that some of the blocks changed by your transaction were written to disc by dbwr and were even flushed from the buffer cache before you issued the commit. Your session will not re-read these blocks in order to do a commit cleanout on them. In fact, if your transaction was quite large and modified a lot of blocks, it’s quite possible that your session will not even do a commit cleanout on all of the blocks that are still in memory – Oracle doesn’t want to make the user wait for a commit to complete, so it’s a bit lazy about commit cleanout.
    At some later point in time another session may read one of those blocks and discover that the ITL includes a transaction that has committed but not been cleaned out. (It can work this out by cross-checking the ITL entry with the relevant transaction table slot in the undo segment header block).
    This session will read the commit SCN from the transaction table slot, tidy up the block’s ITL entry, and clear all the related lock bytes. (And it will do this for all committed transactions it finds on the block). This process is known as block cleanout, and because this full cleanout mechanism never takes place on the commit it is more commonly known as delayed block cleanout.
    The delayed block cleanout operation changes the block so it generates redo – which is why you may see redo being generated on a select statement, especially after a very big update. (Interestingly, Oracle will report db block changes as this happens – but doesn’t record the block visits as db block gets.)

  • 2 months + to have the phone, ... in London???!

    I first contacted BT on the 11th Aug to transfer our telephone line and have a broadband installed in our new flat. Nothing
    extraordinary for an institution like BT, as we live in central London (W1) and we just moved a few blocks away…
    Delay after delay, it took them more than 5 weeks to transfer the phone line to our flat (connection 17 Sept).
    At that point, as the broadband was still not likely to be connected soon, we decided to cancel our request, and asked another provider (Vxxxxx) for the broadband connection.
    Soon after, we realise the phone stopeed working (4th Oct). We called BT to declare a fault. The day after, I receive a SMS saying that my claim had been cancelled, although the phone was still not working. I called again, a technician was sent to our place (6th Oct), or that was what we both thought, except that he was sent to our old address, because, as we discovered then, the line had been transferred back to the old address, without any reason.
    It seems that since then, any attempt to ask for a connection is somehow cancelled without any warning. We are given references and codes that we are told afterwards are not relevant to our problem (ex: Simultaneous Provide). Each time, we are told that the request made the day before was not dealt with properly and each time the connection date is delayed
    another 2 or 3 weeks.
    Ex:  On Friday 7th, I am told the connection will be working on 13th Oct, but 3 days later, I am told this request didn’t go through again and that we have to book another date, but now, the earliest offered is 31st October!
    As everything has gone worse since we cancelled the BT broadband to go with Vxxxxx, we have the strong feeling that BT is bullying us and trying to stop us from joining a competitor. As, Vxxxxx cannot make a broadband connection while the phone line is not working at the current address, we have been therefore completely cut out from any communication media
    from home for 2 months now!
    Complaint put a week ago on BT site, not a word in reply since then.
    Can anybody help or should I just drop the case and run away from BT?

  • Labview& NI ELVIS

    Hi to all,
       I connect 1-phase supply to a diode bride full wave rectifier with R-L load
    through voltage sensor(LV-25P) and current sensor(LA-100p).   I take the source
    voltage and source current and connected to analog channels of NI ELVIS.
    Through NI ELVIS device Iam able to see the waveforms in Labview. I use normal
    labview but not Labview real time.
    Then  I use transport delay block  to delay the waveform by 90 degrees but I am
    not getting the delayed waveform.
    I am attaching the circuit , please go through it & tell me what i have to done
    to delay the signal which I has taken  through NI ELVIS.
    Finally Is it possible  to find out  the harmonics in the source current which
    i has taken through ni ELVIS if i build the control circuit  either in normal
    Labview???? or  in Laabview Real time???
    Waiting for reply.

  • Synchronization of memberLeaving event across the cluster

    Hi,
    Let's assume that we have 2 nodes and one of them is leaving the cluster (but will continue to operate alone). Both nodes use a MemberListener to react to the memberLeaving(MemberEvent) event. Moreover, in our case as part of the leaving event logic we need to send a lot of messages from one node to the other node. That is why we need to have both nodes be part of the cluster until the leaving event is done in all nodes.
    So my question is: Will be node leaving the cluster wait to actually leave the cluster once all the other nodes (and itself too) finished processing the memberLeaving event?
    In case the answer is no I was thinking that the way to ensure a proper clean up would be to do all the clean up logic in the node leaving the cluster but that would imply bringing all the shared/cached data to the leaving node and that wouldn't be a scalable operation.
    Ideas are welcome. :)
    Thanks,
    -- Gato

    Hi Gato,
    The memberLeaving event is an asynchronous notification raised on a node B when another node A issues a programmatic Service.shutdown() or Cluster.shutdown() call. There is no way for code running on B to block or delay the shutdown process on the node A.
    If you want to "negotiate" the conditions of a clean shutdown between cluster nodes, you would need to use a "satellite" InvocationService to communicate all necessary information and actions across the cluster before initiating the shutdown sequence.

    Gene

  • Could not reserve record (2 tries). keep trying ?

    I have a post-query trigger in which I modify the value of some based fields if they are null :
    if :my_block.item1 is null then
    :my_block.item1 := :my_block.item2;
    end if;
    The probelem : when 2 users are querying the same record, we have the error : could not reserve record (2 tries). keep trying ?
    We need that more than one user can query the same record (but of course not modifying it).
    Any help ?
    Thanks.

    I believe you want to set the locking mode property of the block to delayed, as long as the side effects are acceptable.
    As soon as the first person selects, and your post-query trigger fires setting item1 = to item2, a lock is placed since that is the default mode when data is changed.
    From 10g's online help:
    For most applications use the default setting of Automatic. The Immediate setting remains for compatibility with existing applications, but there is no reason to use it in new applications. Use Automatic instead. The Delayed setting is useful for applications that must minimize the number of locks or the amount of time that rows remain locked. Use delayed locking if the form's Isolation Mode property has the value Serializable. The main drawbacks of delayed locking are The changes an end user makes to a block may need to be redone at commit time. Another user's lock can force the first end user to choose between waiting indefinitely or abandoning the changes.

  • Speedup Getting Data

    Hi
    I'm using VS 2013, EF6, WPF
    I have 2 project once WPF and other is MVC, both Application using a MSSQL Server 2008 databace that is in my shared host server.
    my MVC application work well but WPF application getting 3 to 5 second to receive data from database.
    I need to know is there some trick or method to speedup the proses?
    if you know the answer please also let me know where can I get started to learn about it.
    thanks  

    >>I need to know is there some trick or method to speedup the proses?
    There is no magic trick for improving this kind of performance issues.
    The only way to make the actual data retrieval faster from a software developer perspective is to improve the queries that gets executed against the database or creating appropriate indexes on the tables in the database.
    How do to this is certainly not a WPF topic in any way but you may ask any questions about the performance tuning of SQL queries in the SQL Server forums: 
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/home?category=sqlserver
    You should also make sure that there are enough bandwidth between the database server and the computer on which your application is running and that there are no firewalls that block or delay the traffic etc.
    It sounds strange that the ASP.NET application fetches the data faster than the WPF application though, assuming they are deployed on the same computer. Make sure that you are using the same code to fetching the data in both applications before you compare
    the performance.

  • What do you think of this Design for Multiple Threads

    Hi Java Experts ;
    I'm curious to know what you think about this design for a multhreaded app i'm working on.
    I have a controller thread that (a.) creates threads and (b.) keeps a reference to threads that it creates (by sticking them in a hashtable along with the generated Id for that thread).
    When a created thread completes its job, it decrements the thread counter and removes its reference from the hashtable before it finishes its run method.
    Now here's the interesting part in my controller thread i'm creating new threads on the fly with this infinite loop
         public void run(){
              while(true){
                   try{
                        Thread.sleep(500);
                   }catch(InterruptedException e){
                   if(threadCounter<maxThreadCount && moreJobsToDo.size()>0){
                        createDomainThread();
              }//end while
    what do you think about this pattern ? My goal is to maintain about 200+ created threads running at all times with this pattern.

    jeff kesslerman's book says about threads
    "5.2.3 Threads
    The impact that threads have on RAM footprint isn't a problem for most programs, but running threads do need space to store their stack state, and the system- specific data structures do consume memory.
    Because runtime implementations vary widely in how threads are handled, you might encounter situations where the impact threads have on footprint is significant. For example, some ports of the JRE create a heavyweight OS process for each running thread. In an application that uses many threads, this means that thread costs, rather than class or object costs, can become the dominant factor in the program's memory consumption.
    You shouldn't avoid using threads-they're necessary in many cases, and generally don't have a large impact on footprint. However, you should be aware that the impact can be very different across runtimes. This is one of the reasons it's a good idea to measure performance characteristics under your program's different target environments. "
    Question #1: how does garbage collection go about clearing the stack state, and the system- specific data structures that consume memory.
    Question #2: in my situation, each worker thread's activity is not as brief as a simple server request. Each thread does a lot work and does a lot of network connections. on average I would say 100 http request - each of which can be easily blocked or delayed significantly. Therefore each worker thread may operate for between 2 - 10 minutes.
    Do you think thread pooling is useful in this situation ?

  • Am I the only one that thinks iTunes slows everything down?

    Maybe my computer is just very slow, but I feel like itunes is terrible in terms of memory usage. Every time I start it, it takes forever to boot and slows everything else down. Even if my computer is slow, this is a fault in the program as others don't have this effect... Anyone have feedback?

    There's not much in iTunes that would slow the boot process of your computer, since the support processes (Mobile Device Support and Bonjour are the only ones I can think of that start at boot, though I may be forgetting one or two others) that iTunes uses don't start until late in the boot process. So I doubt that all your performance problems stem from iTunes. But you can try uninstalling iTunes - it shouldn't remove your content, but make sure you have a good backup just in case something goes wrong - and see if matters improve. That way you'll know for sure. Alternatively you can try just stopping, or uninstalling, the background processes and see if that makes any difference.
    Another possibility is your system's security software, which might be blocking or delaying the launch of some components.
    FWIW, I haven't seen any change in the performance of either my Windows XP nor Windows 7 systems after installation of iTunes.
    Regards.

  • Socket Painter w/chat

    Evenin all. I have this multithread socket program I'm writing and am having difficulty sending chat messages over the sockets. Lets say i have the server up, which is acting like a hub, and 3 clients that I want to send messages to the hub and the hub send it to all other clients. The hub only sends it to some of the clients and the message is sent to the hub every 2 inputs.
    key listener in the client:
    public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
                   int key = e.getKeyCode();
                   if (key == KeyEvent.VK_ENTER) {

                        chat.add(message);
                        jtf.setText(null);
                        jta.setText(jta.getText() + message);
                        try {

                                       ois = new ObjectInputStream(is);
                                       OutputStream os = client.getOutputStream();
                                       oos = new ObjectOutputStream(os);

         }i'm pretty sure thats all the code that has to deal with sockets and messages. if anyone spots anything that is wrong, i'd gladly appreciate the feedback. What i'm trying to with a working program is when a client writes something in the GUI, that message is sent to the hub, and the hub sends the message to all connected.
    thanks!

    There are lots of high-level problems here.
    1. The first method executes network operations in the AWT thread. This is liable to block and freeze your GUI.
    2. The second method executes I/O code in the accept() thread. This is liable to block and delay subsequent clients from connecting. All the I/O should take place in the client thread started when the socket is accepted. That includes constructing ObjectInputStreams and ObjectOutputStreams. Also here the variables 'ois' and 'oos' should be scoped to the Runnable of that thread. They appear to be members of the class that does the accepting. So you are overwriting them for each new client.
    3. Always construct and flush the ObjectOutputStream before the ObjectInputStream for the same socket. Otherwise you can get deadlocks.
    4. You have a class called PaintThread that does I/O. It can't possibly do painting as well. Something wrong somewhere.

  • How to use the discrete unit delay block with the waveform as the input data type?

    Hi,
    I'm using LabView 2011 to implement a design system. I want to first downsample the input signal and then go through the discrete unit delay function. However, after the unit delay function, i don't get the right output, is there a way to fix that?
    The input is fixed to be the simulate signal since i'm using it for other implementation as well and i don;t want to change it.
    plz see the attachment , thx!

    Hi Tim,
    Thanks for replying!
    What u did is exactly what I want except that I want to downsample the simulate signal first before I put it into a delay block.
    I tried what u said, however, it only works for very small frequency such as 0.01 Hz. When I set the input to 10 Hz, the delay block doesn't work at all. For the diagram u have, what is the input frequency u set to the simulate signal?
    The reason I'm use the Express VI is because I use it as the input of the frequency estimation block. So basicly what I'm doing is :
    sine wave ->downsample it->delay the downsampled signal and do some numerical calculation(adding,multipling) ->estimate the frequency of the output signal -> this frequency is used to determin the sample factor in the downsampling process.
    I attached the VI with the downsamped involved
    I can't copy the downsample.vi because I use the evaluation version 30 days for that toolkit .
    I attached the VI for frequency  estimation as well.
    Thanks so much!

  • Query regarding delayed block cleanout

    Hi,
    I have a question regarding delayed block clean-out in Oracle.
    I have read below from meta link note: 40689.1
    Consider a transaction that updates a million row table. This obviously visits a large number of database blocks to make the change to the data.
    When the user commits the transaction Oracle does NOT go back and revisit these blocks to make the change permanent. It is left for the next
    transaction that visits any block affected by the update to 'tidy up' the block (hence the term 'delayed block clean out').
    But the rollback segment transaction table slot can be recycled once it is marked as committed.
    So if any new transaction tries to visit a block affected by last update and figures out this block is changed and goes to corresponding rollback segment transaction table slot, but that that rollback segment transaction table slot is recycled because of commit.
    So how Oracle will handle this situation?
    Thanks in advance.

    What makes you think that the changed data will be in rollback segment? Rollback segement contains the previous image of data. According to my understanding this should be in the Redo logs.
    So if any new transaction tries to visit a block affected by last update and figures out this block is changed and goes to corresponding rollback segment transaction table slot, but that that rollback segment transaction table slot is recycled because of commit.
    This should go to the Redo & DBWR process should write all the dirty blocks to disc consequently.

  • Speedy-33 Echo Example with DSP Module's Variable Delay Block

    Hi,
    I was trying to implement the echo effect using the DSP Module's Variable Delay Block, it works fine and I could hear the echo nicely, however, it was restrictred to the maximum delay of 4095 (for frame size of 1, and 4094 for FZ of 2, etc....). This means that the maximum delay I could get is 0.5 second with 8k sampling. May I know what is the reason behind? is it due to the HW buffer or what? and how to workaroud this?
    Thanks
