Difference bet. Import manager and Import Server

Hi
Can anybody tell me what is the difference between a Import Server and a Import Manager? And How data is imported using these two?
Thanks in advance

Heii,
In MDIS :
MDIS can be installed on any machine on a network. It works with the MDM Server to import data automatically into existing MDM repositories. If MDIS and its associated MDM Server are installed on the same machine, no further customization needs to be done. If the MDM Server is located on a separate machine from MDIS, you will need to edit the MDIS settings file, mdis.ini (for more information, see MDIS Configuration).
Before you begin using MDIS, you need to be sure that both MDIS and the MDM Server are running and that the target MDM repository is loaded and running. Directions for starting MDIS are located in this section. Directions for starting the MDM Server and loading a repository can be found in the MDM Console Reference Guide
In case of Import Manger :
The MDM Import Manager is a GUI “cockpit” that defines a very specific sequence of steps to prepare source data for import. But rather than perform the import a record at a time as with other import tools, the MDM Import Manager offers a comprehensive set of data transformation capabilities that allow you to pre-process the source data a field at a time prior to import.
Moreover, for each field, the MDM Import Manager collapses the set of all values across the entire set of source records down to the set of distinct values, whose number will usually be dramatically smaller than the total number of records, often by several orders of magnitude.
Field-at-a-time rather than record-at-a-time processing and the distinct value lists of the MDM Import Manager are together the lynchpin of its patent-pending Parametric Import™ technology, which supports the import of electronic source data from any tabular or XML format.
Hope this might help to remove your confusion between Import Manager and MDIS.
Plese reward If you find this useful.

  • Difference between extent management and segment space management

    Hello,
    Could you tell me the difference between extent management and segment space management interms of datablocks?

    After 10g, default tablespace is locally managed and with this creation, your segment's spaces are managed "automatically".
    Automatic segment space management is onlyt avaliable to locally managed tablespaces.
    The logic of the automatic segment space management is;
    For instance, we have a rectangle cube which is totally empty (1 extent - 8 segments - 64 block in default). If we enter a new data to our table, data is stored inside this cube with it's information. (default 8k). If our data must be splitted, check row chaining for further information.
    At this point, oracle decides which block is filled with the entered data. It automatically fills the emty blocks. You can use this only if your tablespace is locally managed and your segment space managemet is auto.
    On the other hand,
    If we create dictionary managed tablespace,
    Data is stored in "dictionary" (tables in SYS schema). This is a bit slower than locally managed tablespaces. So filling the extents, segments and blocks will be slow too. You need to specify the PCTUSED, FREELISTS, FREELISTS GROUPS for the storage of the data. If segment space managent is auto, you don't need to define those values.
    In summary, locally managed tablespaces with automatic segment space management is Oracle's maybe the most important feature. I am not using dictionary managed tablespaces and i advice don't use it either. In the end, this is an upgrade of using segment spaces much more faster, easier and reliable, trustable.
    PS: You will need to check "High Water Mark" for automatic segment space management.

  • Lost connection between ovm-manager and ovm-server (ovm 3.1)

    Hi,
    I have a manager as a VM on my laptop and a physical server as an ovm-server. Everything is fine when i boot the server but after some time, the manager stop to show the information from the server. in the ovs-agent log file the following messages are repeated regulary
    [2013-08-29 13:06:19 6160] DEBUG (notification:289) Trying to connect to manager.
    [2013-08-29 13:06:20 6160] DEBUG (notification:291) Connected to manager.
    [2013-08-29 13:06:20 6160] ERROR (notification:316) No manager Core API server object for 10:60:4b:88:bc:24:10:60:4b:88:bc:25:fe:ff:ff:ff.
    [2013-08-29 13:06:34 6171] ERROR (notification:64) Unable to send notification: (111, 'Connection refused')
    I did not reboot neither the server nor the manager. No IP change. Rebooting the manager has no effect.
    The only way to restore communication is to restart the ovs-agent on the server, but this restart disable the network card. I must be physical on the server to restart the network.
    any help will be very helpful
    best regards
    Jean-Marc

    Hi,
    The are many steps to verify:
    Verify with your firewall on the Oracle VM Manager system (service iptables stop).
    Verify with a ping between OVM Manager and OVM Server using the IP Address and using the hostname for each one (from OVM Manager : ping ovm-server ; and from OVM Server: ping ovm-manager).
    I hope this can help you
    Best Regards

  • Stop managed server without node manager and admin server

    What are the commonly used ways to stop managed Weblogic server without node manager running and without administration server running?
    (I have only one solution: on the managed server startup dump process ID to a file, and then when I want to stop it, send a signal to this process ID and kill JVM. But it seems not very clean way.)
    (The managed server is started when both node manager and admin server are down, and I provide boot.properties of admin server to the managed server to start.)
    UPDATED: And I don't want to start neither admin server, nor node manager even temporarily.
    Edited by: user12163080 on Jun 24, 2010 4:40 AM

    Hai,
    I read the Oracle weblogic wlst script document without Admin server you cannot connect the managed server through the WLST script. see the below lines
    "The start command starts Managed Servers or clusters in a domain using Node Manager.
    To use the start command, WLST must be connected to a running Administration Server.
    To start Managed Servers without requiring a running Administration Server, use the
    nmStart command with WLST connected to Node Manager."
    "You shut down a server to which WLST is connected by entering the shutdown command
    without any arguments.
    When connected to a Managed Server instance, you only use the shutdown command to shut
    down the Managed Server instance to which WLST is connected; you cannot shut down another
    server while connected to a Managed Server instance.
    WLST uses Node Manager to shut down a Managed Server. When shutting down a Managed
    Server, Node Manager must be running.
    In the event of an error, the command returns"
    They are two option if you are using adminserver then we can stop the any Managed server.
    The option is if you are using the nodemanager without admin server we can stop the any Managed server.
    The last final solution to kill the particular Managed server pid.

  • Difference between remote management and vnc

    Difference between remote management and vnc

    By VNC I will presume you mean 'Screen Sharing'.
    Screen Sharing in System Preferences - Sharing is purely for remote control and is based on the VNC protocol with a few extra features added by Apple.
    Remote Management in System Preferences does everything Screen Sharing does and is fully compatible with another Mac doing just Screen Sharing, i.e. it allows remote control. However it can also do additional things. It is intended for use with Apple's Remote Desktop Administration software which can use this to send files to a Mac, send (Unix) commands to a Mac and ask for a report from the Mac (e.g. how much RAM it has).
    If you don't have Apple Remote Desktop there is no real point enabling Remote Management instead of Screen Sharing.
    Both Screen Sharing and Remote Management can also be configured to allow 100% standard VNC connectivity from say a PC, as standard they only accept connections from Macs.

  • Difference between Time Management and Time Evaluation

    Hello
    Is there any Difference between Time Management and Time Evaluation? if yes, then what is it? I guess there's no diff, time evaluation is a report..
    please advice
    Thanks

    Hi Charlene,
    Time management can be divided into 3 steps
    1.Time Recording
    2.Time Evaluation
    3. Planning
    Time Evaluation :
    The recorded time data is grouped and converted to wage types which can be used by payroll for compensation.SAP provides a time evaluation program RPTIME00 for this purpose.
    Standard schemas TM00 and TM04 are used for evaluation of time data got from positive and negative time recording approaches.
    time evaluation program RPTIME00 also calculates accrual and entitlement for employees.

  • What is difference bet  call transaction and session method in BDC

    hi
    what is difference bet  call transaction and session method in BDC
    thanks.

    Hi,
    Session method.
    1) synchronous processing.
    2) can tranfer large amount of data.
    3) processing is slower.
    4) error log is created
    5) data is not updated until session is processed.
    Call transaction.
    1) asynchronous processing
    2) can transfer small amount of data
    3) processing is faster.
    4) errors need to be handled explicitly
    5) data is updated automatically

  • Protocol betwwen Oracle VM Manage and host server

    Hello,
    What is the communication protocol and/or security protocol used between Oracle VM Manager and host server ????
    thanks

    From what I understand, the Oracle VM agent, installed with the Oracle VM server, communicates with Oracle VM Manager to manage virtual machines.
    The communication between Oracle VM manager and server is XML-RPC with SSL encryption i.e. You can take a look at https://<vm_server>:8899
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11081_01/doc/doc.21/e10898/config.htm
    contains information about ports, etc.
    Is this a theoretical question or are you asking to sort out some networking trouble?

    Hi
    complaint mngt is for creating, maintaing, processing of complaint documents - when customer calls you and tells about problem with product he bought, you create complaint document in CRM.
    case mngt is for managing more documents , it could be documents for many customers. Case is usually about complex problem.

  • Difference between Integration Engine and Integration server.

    can any 1 explained in detail about difference between Integration Engine and Integration server.
    thanks in advance

    Integration Server and Integration Engine are used synonymous with each other. But there is a sublte difference if you actually look into the XI architecture images provded by SAP.
    The Integration Server contains,
    1. Adapter Engine
    2. Business Process Engine
    3. Integration Engine.
    So, taking this into picture I guess Integartion server is a collection of these 3 while integration engine is one of the runtime components of XI. All messages are processed in the Integration Engine.

  • Difference between inventory management and warehouse management

    can any body tell me the difference between inventory management and warehouse management i need atleast five differences

    hi
    1.
    Processes in the area of Inventory Management address the recording and tracking of materials on a quantity and value basis. This includes planning, entry, and documentation of stock movements such as goods receipts, goods issues, physical stock transfers, and transfer postings as well as the performance of physical inventory (stocktaking).
    Warehouse Management Processes cover warehouse-internal movements and storage of materials.
    2.
    SAP Warehouse Management allows you to manage your material flow, using advanced putaway and picking strategies. In the standard system, these strategies for putaway include random putaway (next empty bin), bulk storage, fixed bin, or addition to stock. The picking strategies include standard strategies first-in first-out (FIFO), last-in first-out (LIFO), picking by shelf life expiration date (SLED), or partial quantities first. For customer-specific strategies, solutions can be self-defined in user exits.
    3.
    While Inventory Management manages the stocks by quantity and value, the Warehouse Management component reflects the special structure of a warehouse, and monitors the allocation of the storage bins and any transfer transactions in the warehouse.

  • Difference between extent management and segment management

    friends what is the basic difference between extent management and segment management,as we know that segment is a collection of extents then why is it necesassry to manage both??..and what is the need to do so?

    saugat chatterjee wrote:
    friends what is the basic difference between extent management and segment management,as we know that segment is a collection of extents then why is it necesassry to manage both??..and what is the need to do so?Oracle stores data in it's own logical structure.
    Blocks --> Extent --> Segment
    Oracle block(also known as page) being the granular level where the data is stored. Extent is a collection of blocks.
    When you specify extent management, you mean where the allocation/de-allocation of extents(group of blocks) will be managed (either in dictionary or using bitmaps).
    When you specify segment space management, you mean that how the space inside a block will be managed. Extent management doesn't control space distribution inside block.
