Difference between passive and active data connection mode for FTP

Hi,
Does any body have the idea of passive and active data connection mode for the transport protocol FTP.
I have one server with FTP, I have to pick the data from this FTP to XI.
What is the difference between active and passive data connection? Does XI supports both the connections?
Thanks & Regards
Katta Mohan Reddy

Hi
According to SAP Note - 821267
Q: Does the File Adapter support active data connections when connecting to an FTP server?
A: Up to and including SP14, the File Adapter exclusively uses passive data connections. Starting with SP15, active connections will be available.
Difference between active and passive,
You can definitely refer to the site mentioned by Suraj

Different between Passive and Active SFP+ cable

Hey,
We'd like to know what is the different between Cisco SFP+ copper passive twinax cable and active cable?
We test some Siemon passive SFP+ 7m and 10m copper cables and these cables passed our lab test ( link between nexus 5548 and FEX link).
Is that means we can using Siemon to take over Cisco because of same function and lower cost?
Thanks.

Greetings,
The following page explains in detail the difference between passive and active copper assemblies - http://www.scientificcomputing.com/High-speed-Copper-Interconnects-Address-Critical-HPCHurdles.aspx.
You can use any Cisco Twinax cables between a Nexus 5548 switch and Fabric Extender (note that Nexus 7000 switches do not support all Twinax cables). The 7 and 10m cables use an active design while the shorter cables are passive.
Non-Cisco transceivers are not compatability validated and may not be supported by TAC if you encounter any issues (Warranty Guideline http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/prod_warranty09186a00800b5594.html). We recommend always using official Cisco components.
Hope this helps,

Difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source

HI,
What is the difference between 0FI_AP_30 and 0FI_AP_4 Data source.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
In addition to above differences. Below is the functional difference between 0FI_AP_30 & 0FI_AP_4:
0FI_AP_4 gives you accounts payable line items in your report. Here GL account shows the balances of particular types of vendors/payables to which that particular GL account is been assigned.
And If subledger is activated in ECC, then by using 0FI_AP_30 you can get the break up of that particular GL balance according to vendors.
To make use of datasource 0FI_AP_30, subledger accounting must be activated in ECC.

What are the differences between inactive and active ABAP objects?

Can anybody tell me what are the differences between inactive and active ABAP objects?
In my opinion, an active object is compiled and system wide available, that means the system do not have to compile the program again before run or use the object. While An inactive object is not system wide available and every time you run an inactive object, firstly the abap runtime will have to generate a tempory runtime object and this inactive object can not seen by others.
Am I right? Can anybody kindly tell me other differences?

Hi,
"When it is inactive, it is like it would not exist at all:" no - it's like it only exists to you
"If we just saved that one means it is stored in application server not in database": no - the inactive version is also stored in the database. You can log off and log on and it will still be there, in its inactive status.
"Only active objects can be executed.": no - inactive objects can be executed by you
When you create or modify a program, it is inactive until you activate it.
With a change, there are two versions of the program stored in the database - the active version (as it was before you made your change), and the inactive version. If you attempt to run the program, you'll run the inactive version - the one with your changes. Everyone else on the system will run the active version.
In this way, you can make changes without affecting anyone else.
Once you activate your program, then the inactive version becomes the active version.
With a create, there is no active version, until you hit the activate button. This means ONLY you can run the program.
An additional benefit of this model, is that if you make a change, save it, and then change your mind without activating, you can recover the active version into the editor, using version management.
A downside is that sometimes you have to activate your change before you can test it, if it interacts with other, active, programs.

Kumar

Difference between Replication and Activation of Data Sources

Hi,
I would like to know what exactly happens when data sources are replicated and when data souces are activated
Regards,
Visali.G.

Once you make the replicate of DS at BW, what ever the struc. for that DS would be regenarated, and accordingly your extraction and setup table struc. would get updated by the latest changes made in the DS.
At the BW side all corresponding communication and transfer structure and PSA structure would also get generated according to the DS struct. per R/3
Need of Replication in other terms we can say
Replication needs to be done is each time you save you datasource in R/3. This causes the timestamp of the datasource to be changed and hence the timestamp of the datasource in R/3 and BW are not in sync. Replication would make the timestamp in sync in both R/3 and BW.
Hence you would notice the error "Timestamp error" when you do not replicate the datasource after changing it.
Activating the data source, activating the structure and make available the dat source to use.

Difference between SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE and Open data set mechanism

Can you please help me to know the difference between moving a file using FM "SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE" and moving file using "open data set - transfer file- close data set" mechanism?

Through 'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' u can execute a External command (ie.. UNIX /Windows/OS/400) In ABAP programming..
for Conversion Of Aplication server File/Move the file from one directory to Other...
The Command must be present in SM69.
Using this function module'SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE' , you can check the authorization of a user to execute a particular external command and run the command:
With the arguments specified in ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS
On the target host system defined by OPERATINGSYSTEM and TARGETSYSTEM
If an SAP profile parameter is inserted in the portion of the command stored in the database, then the value of this parameter is substituted into the command. If an SAP application server is active on the target system (TARGETSYSTEM), then the profile parameter values are read from the profile that is active on that system. No parameter substitution is made in ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS.
After substitution, the command is checked for the presence of "dangerous" characters such as the semicolon ( ; ) on UNIX systems.
If an additional "security function module" is specified in the command definition, this function module is also called in the course of processingebenfalls. This function module can prevent execution of the command.
If the authorization checks complete successfully, the command is run on the target host system.
Through Open Data Set u can read and write the file in the same directory...
Thnaks,
SD

Difference between master and transaction data

whts the difference and relaionship between master data and transaction data?why do we need to upload or extract both type of data's?cant we have only transaction data?please clarify

Hi ,
Master Data :
The data which do not change frequently and that is needed generally for many reporting .
Eg : Customer Name , Customer Address Etcc..
Transaction Data :
This the data that is derived based on some master data
Eg : Creating a sales order for a Customer . So the transaction data will be
 Customer Number , Order Quantity .
Why we keep master data as seperate in BW ?
Because master data is general , So we have to use that master data in many cubes for reporting purpose . Because for any report on Customer we need to give cutomer name , So we keep that master data outside of cube so that any cubes that need to use customer master can take that , So we can concentrate on other dimensions for cube ,Other wise we need to include customer name in all cubes which is reppetitive .
So the best method is to ....
First Load master Data
Then load Transactio data .
In the Bex part we combine the master data with transaction data so that we get combined data .
Eg :
Master Data : Customer No , Cust Name , Cust Address
Tran Data : Customer No , SD No , Order Qty .
We first load the master data into master data tables /BI0/M*
Then we load tarnsaction data into Cubes .
Then in BEX Reporting we create query for Transaction Cube , But fetch some master data using Bex feature , So the report output will be
Cust No CustName CustomerAddress SD no Order Quantity
Hope this Solves your Problem

Difference between installing and activating business content

Hi,
I am new to BW, would like to know some info
1) What is the difference between install busines content and activate business content, When i should do what
2) When a business content is installed do i need to go to modelling tab and activate it as well.
3) if a business content is installed would all other related objects get activated automaically like its update rules, transfer rules etc.
Thanks
Akila.R

Hi Ramachandran,
Good question,
This issue can be adressed with the "Match x or copy" option in the Business content activation screen.
Here with this option you can decide wether you need to overwrite the earlier content or not.
Follow the link for further explanation on "Match x or copy".

Difference Between 720p30pn and 720p30p on HVX-200 for Music Video Shoot

I'm shooting a music video on the HVX-200. I'm new to the camera and the manual offers little explanation as to the difference/advantages/disadvantages between 720p30pn and 720p30p recording format. I want to shoot VFR (variable frame rates) and mix it with the footage which I think only works with the 720p30p recording format.
Does anyone know the differences/advantages/disadvantages of 720p30pn and 720p30p?
As I'm going for the "film look" of 24fps, which setting on the camera do I use? I'm assuming that I use the 720p30 recording format setting and not the 720p24 as I'm obviously not outputting to film, but then again, I could be wrong.
I do know when I was testing the P2 workflow that when I was doing the VFR (variable frame rate), it was unplayable even with rendering on FCP 5.1. I'm sure I had some funky disconnect between the recording frame rate and sequence settings on FCP. Does anyone know which recording format works integrating both footage shot at 1x and variable and what is the corresponding sequence setup settings on FCP?
Thanks for the help.

Why not shoot 720/24pNative for the "film look."
With the default frame setting in the video or the film mode?
You will mimic part of the "film look" out of the cam rather than addressing it in post, and you increase the amount of footage that can be recorded to a p2 card by recording only 24 frames rather than an over 60 recording.
Play with the scene files for the look you want to add to the "film look."
Remember that the shallow DOF characteristic of the "film look" can't be readily achieved with a stock HVX200.

Connect Mode for FTP Sender

Dear all,
We have options for Connect mode as Permanently & Per file transfer, When we connect to FTP site, which is the best one to choose according to best practice?
Regards

If you have large number of small files to be retrieved, "permanently" mode reduces the overhead caused by creating a new connection.
However, this will keep the connection open until the next polling. So, if you have polling each 1 hour, the connection will be held open. SAP recommends the "per file transfer" usage.
Please also check the SDN thread below:
Connect Mode: Permanent Vs Per File Transfer

Difference between 60hz and 120-240hz lcd monitor for gaming?? OT

I don't have an apple display but have a 40" lcd tv. Does this higher Hz really help with motion and will it help with games that play at a higher Hz rate?
After editing all day its nice to play a game now and then but there is one problem I have. *Ghost Recon* will not play on this lcd tv. Every other game I tried will work but I don't mess with those much. I just can't figure out why this one game will not work with this 60hz lcd tv.
I can plug a dvi and sub-15 out of my *MDD G4* together into the monitor and then it will work. I have to mirror the monitors together to make it work tough.
It's very odd that this will work even with the crt monitor off, but they both still need to be plugged in.
So should I try to buy a 120hz lcd tv and see if that works but thats a $700 mistake that would be really bad to the budget.
Obviously this is this game only. I borrowed a friends new Acer 22" computer monitior and put it on 60hz and the game played today.
I really am confused about this.
Thanks for the help
Tony

The way a 120 Hz monitor/TV works is to insert an interpolated image in between the two actual images that were passed to the display by the video source. Consider the example of a a ball in motion, like say you a watching a tennis match. Consider that 60 frames per second of video are being passed from the video source (computer, cable box, whatever...) to the display. In frame one, let's say the ball is at position A. In frame two, lets say the ball is at position B. So as rendered on the display the ball would appear to jump from A ---> B and the next frame to C, like A---> B--->C, etc.
What a 120 Hz display does is insert extra images between frames one and two, and two and three and so on. In that case a "fake" image of the ball is computed by DSP and inserted between the other "real" locations so the ball moves like this: A->A'->B->B'-C, etc. so the appearance is smoother motion of the ball as the display is updated not 60 times per second, but 120 times per second.
This would improve the appearance of motion in video games. The downside can be latency because there is a delay penalty that will occur from the required frame buffering and processing. You should probably find a dedicated game website and read up more about this kind of technology before committing $700 to it. And it won't make a game play that, for whatever reason, isn't currently playing on your system. So Ghost Recon isn't playing for some other unrelated reason.

Difference between PDS and PPM and which one should be used for SNP /ppds?

Hi Gurus,
Just wanted to know what are the difference between PDS and PPM ?
1. For what industrial products we use PDS and PPM in SNP and PPDS?
2. which one can be refered to clients?
Please let me know it will be really great if anyone let me know the answers
Thanks & Regards,
Raj

Hi Rajkumar,
I have given below the detailed comparative account of PDS Vs PPM. Please copy and put it in an excel sheet in different columns and then read which is easy to understand.
PDS
1. Production Data Structure (PDS) in APO 3.1 & Run Time Object (RTO) in 4.0 and above versions
2. Master Data Object
3. Useful for scenarios where the compoenent has got different validity periods
4. Used as Master data Basis for Planning in SAP-APO
5. Contains active Master data from iPPE (Integrated Product and Process Engineering) generated from a production version
6. PPDS PDS & SNP PDS can be used as master data for planning
7. Change Management, variant configuration & Phantom assemplies are supported in PDS
8. Sub-contracting in SNP is fully integrated with R/3 is supported in PDS
9. Direct transfer of SNP PDS from R/3 is possible
10.Rapid Planning Matrix can be generated
11. Not possible to maintain PDS directly in APO and can be used only in combination with R/3
12. The transfer of data changes is simpler
13. Not possible to create alternate SNP-PDS in std system for different mode combinations
14. PDS can be automatically generated from two sources ie R/3 and iPPE
PPM:-
1. Production Process Model
2. Master Data Object
3. Cannot be used for scenarios where the component has got different validity period
4. Used as Master data Basis for Planning in SAP-APO
5. Contains active Master data generated from the combination of routing (BoM & receipe) and production versions
6. PPDS PPM & SNP PPM's can be used as master data for planning
7. Not supported by PPM
8. Not supported by PPM
9. Not possible here. SNP PPMs will be generated via PPDS PPMs
10. Not possible
11. PPMs can be directly created in APO and can be modified without R/3 also.
12. Little Complex when compared to PDS
13. Alternate SNP-PPMs can be easily created
14. PPM can be generated automatically generated only from R/3
PDS is used in industries wherein there are multiple components or assemblies having diffeent production versions whose validity periods are different. PPM is being used typically in process industries, chemical industries. PPM is very simple in its usage and very flexible in operations in terms of modifications at APO level and can be referred to client depending on the business requirement

What are the differences between api and sdk

Hi,
Could anybody clarify for me what are the difference between API and SDK? I googled for the answer, and couldn't find any thing on this topic.
Many thanks in advance.
javasfan

Is it correct to say that "a SDK includes all the
APIs"? or "API sits on top of the SDK"?It's a bit weird to say either. First, the JDK doesn't include all APIs. Just the J2SE core API. Others, like 3rd party libraries or J2EE are not included. Second, if you mean the API docs, they're also not included IIRC.
It'd technically only be correct to say "the SDK provides an API", I guess. The example is very lame, but: if the SDK is a machine, the API is the sum of its buttons and levers and gauges and intakes and outlets and exhausts. The API docs are the manual.
