DI server - Licencing in Dual processor

Hi all,
We have the next configuration:
-. 1 server with dual processor ( tecnology Intel Core Duo ). For this configuration, the DI server need 1 or 2 licences ?
-. If the answer is 2 licences, how many professional users are necessary to access B1 database? 1 or 2.
thanks

Hi Humberto,
I am not sure whether this forum is the place for these questions, but here are the answers:
- the first question is answered in SAP Note no. 890591 - and it is "2"
- the second question is phrased a bit imprecisely from what I understand:
- to my knowledge (but this may have changed; again this may not be the right forum for these questions) the minimum number of Prof. users that need to be ordered is 2 for any "Installation". However I think you will need at least 1 user to do all the administrative tasks. Please check the list in the lincesing guide and note that any user is assumed to have "Add-On ..." license. That's why any user can add a BP even though not having been assigned any B1 license!
Please note that authorizations are not directly related to licenses!
HTH,
Frank

How many server licences do i need

I am designing a small data center with physical servers connected to a SAN which is then backed up to a NAS for backup. The physical server will be running 13 critical application using VMware for high availability. How many window server licences would
i need to purchase. Is it one per physical server? or would i need one for each VM also.
Thanks

Hello,
if one VMWare host should run more then 2 VMs you need a Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter edition (unlimited versions from Windows VMs on the host) from Windows or 7 Windows Standard licenses (max. 14 VMs).
Keep in mind that processors count into the license requirements.
"...using VMware for high availability..."
This means that you should have at least 2 VMWare hosts which have the RAM and processors to run in caseof hardware problem from the other host ALL VMs.
So you are now need at least 2 Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter licenses or 14 Standard editions.

Oracle in dual processor (urgent)

i have using oracle in dual processor in my server, but some of my report (5 user using these report) run very slowly. i have 2 Gb memory. i have already checked the index and i did the export import to make sure there's not chain row. but still this report run very slowly. do i have to defragment my server? because yesterday. i did long processing that took 58 hours.
i do not know the reason. please help me to solve this as it is very urgent
Thanks in advance

Dual processor / performance

Hello world!
Is anyone running a dual processor or dual core procesor with a jmf application or even JMStudio? on Windows or Linux.
Could you tell us
1) The sort of performance gain you get compaired to single cpu
2) The type of cpu you use
3) Do you experience any cpu related problems worth mentioning
Thanks for your input,
Fred

ok here are some tests that seem to clarify things and contradict some of the previous text on this posting.
We created a number crunching cpu intensive basic java application (see code below) and the result are as follow
machine 1 single 3ghz Intel P4 cpu windows xp
machine 2 dual 3ghz Intel P4 cpu (2 X 3ghz ) windows 2000 server
1 single thread
machine 1 took 17 seconds at 97% max cpu
machine 2 took 33 seconds at 50% max cpu
2 concurent threads
machine 1 took 35 seconds at 97% max cpu
machine 2 took more than 70 seconds at 97% max cpu
So it seems that multithreading or not for java, a dual cpu on windows is a waiste of time.

Oracle Database on Dual-Processor Servers

Hello All,
I am contemplating on transferring my two instances of oracle 10g rel1 rdbms to a dual processor server from a single processor one.
What advantages will I gain? Is it really worth it?
I will appreciage any ideas, suggestions, comments, etc.
Thank you and with warm regards

Hi Justin,
Thank you very much for your reply.
Acutally, the instances running on my database server our production and development databases. The server would still host the two instances. BTW, my server is a Linux box (RHEL ES 4.0) with 3GB RAM running an intel XEON 3.0Ghz CPU (HP-Compaq ML-350).
I have Grid Control installed in a Windows 2003 where I manage the two instances and when I monitor the databases, I always get alerts that the CPU and memory utlizations are very high, in the high 90s (%).
Last night, I was informed that our server room will be made as location of an additional database server that will host databases for HR,Procurement,Inventory and Logistics and we will be the DBA for that. User base would be around 40 simultaneus online users at a any given time plus or minus 5 users. Total possible users will be around 100. Operation is from 7am to 6 pm, weekdays.
For this server, we have proposed dual processor (intel XEON) and 4GB RAM. Would this be enough to meet our incoming requirements?
Thank you and regards,
Mike

Migrating from single processor to dual processor Callmanager

Hi Networkers,
had anyone install a Callmanager 4.1 dual processor version of CM4.1-K9-X345D= before in a single CPU in a dual processor capable server before.
Can it work in the first place?
Had anyone successfully migrate it to a dual-processor later on?

I dont think there is any difference in Callmanager software for a dual processor versus single processor server. For 7845 (dual processor) the hardware detection disks may be different from the one for single processor (7825, 7835)
Migrating from one to another is as easy as taking a BARS backup from one server, build the other server to the same version and restore it. (Make sure server name and ip are the same for both servers)
Please remember to rate posts!

Dual Processor not being used with Ora8

Hi all,
We have just upgraded our database from 7.3.0 to 8.1.7 and have discovered that the database is not utilising the Dual Processors on our Server, therefore a reduction in performance is high.
The puzzling thing is that our ora7 database does utilise the 2 processors..
Can somebody tell me what I can do in order for our ora8 installation to use both of the processors..?
Thanks
CJ

Hi KSStudio. A few questions to clarify.
1. Is this a dual or single cpu machine?
2. How many cores per machine?
Check it out...
Assuming you have a dual cpu (8 core) 2009 mac pro, when you use activity monitor choose > Window > CPU Usage. You should see a floating window with 16 panes. (8 panes if you have a single processor/4 core model) Under normal loads using 10.5 you should see some activity in all 16 panes. Under normal loads using 10.6 you should see activity in odd numbered panes. You will see activity in even numbered panes when the load is high. This is normal and due to Snow Leopard's improved utilization of processor technology.
Hope this helps.

Dual Processor Board??

I AM STARTING TO BUILD MY NEW SYSTEM AND WANTED TO GO DUAL PROCESSORS, ONLY REASON BEING I PLAY LOTS OF GAMES AND I ALSO DO 3D ANIMATION. I AM ALSO THINKING OF GOING WITH ONE OF THE 3D LABS WILDCAT GRAPHICS CARDS AND "MASS" RAM.
ANYWAYS I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A DUAL PROCESSOR MOTHERBOARD AND I HAVENT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ONE. I AM LOOKING FOR TOP OF A TOP OF LINE BOARD HOPFULLY ONE WITH 800 FSB AND SUPPORTS DDR RAM 400 ALTEAST. THE ONLY DUAL BOARDS I HAVE FOUND ARE LIKE P2 AND P3, BUT I AM LEANING TOWARDS AN AMD FX-51 PROCESSOR RIGHT NOW.
ANY INFO OR SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE AWSOME. THANKS EVERYONE!!!

Hi,
Look under the Server/Workstation boards....
But they only support 1 FX....for Dual support you need the Opteron 2xx series...

Any process to follow if we keep the dual processor

Hi all of u,
I am using Oracle 10g. My question is, In the Windows 2003 Prof. single processor i installed the Oracle 10g server. After that we ordered the dual processor for this server system. Now What to do this, shall i deinstall the oracle 10g and install again in this machine or it will run as usual.
Any process to follow if we keep the dual processor.
Oracle 10g Version 10.2.0.1.0
OS: Microsoft Windows 2003 Prof.

Thank u for al u r reply. I understood, but i want to know is any changes made to any parameter in that database folder to improve the performance after keeping multiprocessor to the server system.
I mean to say that in the books it has given that " PARALLEL PROCESSING CAN HELP IMPROVE PERFORMANCE IN SITUATIONS WHERE LARGE AMOUNTS OF DATA NEED TO EXAMINED OR PROCESSED, SUCH AS SCANNING LARGE TABLES, JOINING LARGE TABLES CREATING LARGE INDEXES AND SCANNING PARTITIONED INDEXES.
PARALLEL PROCESSING REQUIRES MORE PROCESSING MEMORY, AND I/O RESOURCES THAN SERIAL PROCESSING.
So any parameters to add to improve the performance of the database when we install multiprocessor in server system.
Thank u..
Ravi

Single or Dual Processors for Tuxedo and/or weblogic 8.1?

We run Tools 8.44 and 8.20 and double checking to see if either Weblogic (8.1) or Tuxedo (8.1) would utilize a dual processor environment? We run these on Windows 2003 Server.
Appreciate inisght.

Yep its all in the cache, and the L3 makes all the difference.
I remember when I was shopping for my upgrade, Gigadesign had two different models of CPU's, the (brand new at the time) single and dual 7447's which went up to a dual 1.8 and the older pre-Freescale models (cant remember the model number maybe it was indeed the 7455B??) that maxed out with a dual 1.4..
I remember reading benchmarks (and quite a bit at XLR8yourmac.com) about the older dual 1.4's being on about the same level as the dual 1.6 and 1.7 7447 cpus.. This was all down to the 1.4 having L3 cache on each cpu. The 7447 had double the L2 like the 7448 but no L3.. I didnt really care much since they were relatively the same benchmark, but I went with the dual 1.7 7447 anyways just because the numbers were higher..
And funny enough, the CPU never ran stable at 1.7, my Mac would crash and kernel panic left and right. I couldnt get any response back from their tech support (I think it was one guy that ran the whole thing) about adjusting the voltage on it, so it spent its entire lifetime in my G4 as a dual 1.67. Not too big of a difference but I couldve saved some money just flat out buying a 1.6 instead of the 1.7, and wouldve saved even more had I just listened and bought the dual 1.4 with L3...
John with a G4 - no problem at all hehe! Dont get me wrong I loved my G4 and it served me well for just about 10 years before it 'died' on me.. But after getting the late-2005 dual core G5 man oh man I wish I wouldve done it waaaaaaaaaay sooner!

Apple G4/1.0GHz Dual Processor Xserve

I am planning getting a unit that I can use to run Mac OS X 10.4.8 server for hosting a web site and FTP server. I was considering a mac mini but am getting a deal on this Apple G4/1.0GHz Dual Processor Xserve. Here the question:
I own a Macbook Pro and don't have an external monitor. How would I install the OS to this machine and also control it via my MBP. I have apple remote desktop ... would that help me get this setup done?
Thanks.
System configuration: 1.0GHz G4 Dual Processors 1.0GB RAM 60GB Hard Drive CD-ROM Drive Video card 2- USB ports 2- Firewire ports 1- Ethernet port *Includes original box, mounting brackets, No OS CDs.

The server is designed to run headless, so the lack of monitor shouldn't be a big issue. However the kicker here is:
No OS CDs
Without the CDs you need to know the state the server is in (technically, the CDs should be shipped with the server, but that's another matter).
What you'll need to do is get a copy of the Server Admin tools that are appropriate for the version of the OS on the server. You can run Server Assistant from any other machine on the network to setup the server, assign IP addresses, etc.

I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro, I am trying to run MW3 but it will not work without crashing a few minuets into the game. The general specs on my computer are a dual processor 2.53 ghz. 4 gb ram and a NVIDIA geforce 9400 (9600 is the alternate card)

I have a late 2008 Macbook Pro, I am trying to run MW3 but it will not work without crashing a few minuets into the game. The general specs on my computer are a dual processor 2.53 ghz. 4 gb ram and a NVIDIA geforce 9400 (9600 is the alternate card).
Things to note:
I have been unable to update firmware on this computer for about a year now. Im not sure why.
I am running a bootleg copy of Windows XP on this computer, I would not like to spend $149 to get Windows 7 if possible.
any thoughts on the matter would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

Why don't you take your 'old' MBP into your local Apple Store and have them check out everything that's wrong with it - and I mean everything? Then, when you get an estimate about how much it would cost to get the machine completely repaired, ask about the Apple flat-rate repair pricing?
It's worth a shot - and with what you may save, you can put in the bank for a new MBP.

What is causing a PowerMac G5/2.3GHz Dual Processor sudden abrupt shutdowns

Hi all
I am posting in hope that someone out there can help me solve this very puzzling problem.
The machine: A PowerMac dual processor G5/2.3GHz (early 2005). 1.5G RAM. 250G HD. SuperDrive. Radeon 9650.
The problem: When under some load, this machine will suddenly and abruptly shutdown as though someone pulled the power cord. There is no warning. Just a soft click, and it powers off. The machine can be manually restarted after the sudden shutdown with no problems.
This problem is very replicable. (eg go to a particular website, play an embedded video, and boom, the machine shutsdown. Each and every time.) It was replicated at an Apple Store and at two Apple Authorized Service Providers.
System.log said "PMU forced shutdown, cause = -122"
Before the sudden shutdown, the machine seemed to be operating normally. The fans did not noticeably speed up. Activity Monitor showed no more than 50% CPU activity for each CPU. Temperature on both CPU was around at 70C before the sudden shutdown. Temperature and activity on both CPU goes up and down in tendem.
If I use the Energy Saver system preference to change "Processor performance" to "Reduced", the problem goes away. (As measured by going to the same website and playing the same video. Even playing 5 videos simultaneously did not cause a sudden shutdown.)
What have I done #1: I have reformat the hard drive with a 7-pass security wipe, followed by a clean-install of Tiger which was then brought up-to-date using Software Update. I then installed Safari 4.0.3. No other software is on the machine except Tiger and Safari. (Later installed Hardware Monitor to get me a handle on the temperatures.) The problem persisted.
What have I done #2: I then installed a new PRAM battery and reset PMU using the switch on the motherboard. Resetting the PMU also resetted the PRAM. The problem persisted.
What have I done #3: I then took the machine to an Apple Store. They found that they can replicate the problem easily. But, after 3 days of running the Apple Service Diagnostic, the diagnostic software didn't find any problem. They also did a thermal re-calibration. That didn't help either. Without an error code from the diagnostic software, the only "solution" the Apple Genius offered was to start swapping CPU, power supply and mother board at my expense. And even then, he has no idea which component to start swapping first. (Two independent Apple Authorized Service Providers offered the same non-diagnosis and roughly the same "solution".)
Has anyone encountered such a problem before? What was the solution?
How about an educated guess as to what's wrong?
I want to, if possible, and if reasonable, repair this machine.
Thanks in advance.
Lara

This sounds almost exactly like the problem I have. My G5 is also an Early 05 2.3G. I tried every tip I found on the forums from UPS vs. wall socket to stock RAM vs. 3rd party to booting from external HDs, etc.. I currently have 10.5.8 on it and it's running using the "Reduced" processor setting in Energy Saver prefs.
I have also made a trip to The Apple Store where the AS folks ran their diagnostics but were usable to replicate my problem. I understand they "can't fix it if it ain't broke".
Aside from the "Reduced" setting work-around has ANYONE actually solved this problem definitively? Although I have no interest in spending $1000 to fix this, I can't imagine disposing of it on Ebay.
Assuming this is a hardware issue, this would mark the first insurmountable failure of any of the 10 or so Macs I have owned.
Anyone? Anyone?

Why can't I download 10.4 for my G4 Dual Processor?

I have an older G4 500 mHz Dual Processor Mac and two other macs (iMac & new MacBook Pro). I just purchased Adobe CreativeSuites3 and realized I can't install on my oldest Mac without upgrading the System software. I want to have the same version of CS on all Macs. I looked into upgrading to Leopard and discovered it won't work with my G4. So I went to upgrade from 10.3.9 to 10.4 and it appears that Apple will no longer sell a new version of 10.4! Am I looking in the wrong place? Will my G4 successfully run 10.4? How do I purchase a copy of it?

Tiger is available at many online retailers. Price Grabber has several listed. Make sure to get the full retail version.
Personally, I would stay away from E-Bay. A lot of machine specific versions get sold there, and unless you know what you are looking for, you'll end up with a disk that doesn't even work on your Mac.
Cheers! DALE

CHUD on a dual processor MDD running Leopard (10.5.8)

I finally got around to installing CHUD today and am wondering if some of you folks who have used it for a while might have some easy answers to a few questions.
I first tried version 3.5.2. It installed, but I couldn't adjust any of the settings. I then read on japamac's site that some MDD's could use 4.4.4. I installed that version and it does work (In fact, I'm posting this with one processor tied behind my back). However, there does not seem to be an option for nap mode.
Also, after I toggle between single an dual processor mode a few times, performance in dual mode seems to take a big hit. A restart solves the problem, but I'm wondering if this is normal.
Is there any way to get nap mode to work in a dual cpu MDD running 10.5.8?
Is there any way to get it to stay in single CPU mode when it wakes from sleep?
I read through the discussions at xlr8yourmac before posting this. It appears that some people have been able to get nap mode to work under Leopard, but they are not always careful to mention exactly which version of Leopard and CHUD they are using.

Hi-
When installing CHUD, it is also necessary to run CHUD remover to deinstall previous installations.
If not deinstalled, odd stuff happens.
3.5.2 is the one for dual processors.
Other versions have mixed dual processor support.
This is one of the claims that 4.4.4 works, but I have lingering doubts
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5974655&#5974655
I may need to edit my blog page.....
It takes a script for automatic Nap enabling in a dual processor machine with 3.5.2.
