Difference between RFC, SYSTEM and AUDIT users?

Hi All,
Can you highlight the main differences between the following users:
RFC
SYSTEM
AUDIT
how do their functions differenciate them ?
Thanks in advance,
Diwakar

RFC User
RFC user is basicly used to receive status messages. An RFC user has to be created in all the system clients where messages needs to be recieved. An RFC user can also be used for receiving messages using SMTP plug-in.
The RFC User is an sap user of type System and that's why no person can logon with this user on SAP System.
Following is thr procedure to create RFC User, remember the purpose is to recieve messages including status messages as well.
Creation of RFC User
Go to Tools > Administration > User Maintenance > Users.
Enter a name, for example MAIL_ADMIN.
Select "New"
On the Logon data tab page, select the user type System.
Enter a password.
On the Profiles tab page, enter the authorization profile S_A.SCON. This profile minimizes the risk of misuse, even if the communication system does not store the password is encoded form.
Select "Save"
Both RFC user and a System user are of type System only. Now the difference, depends upon the profile and authorization of the user.
Audit users are of type dialog, and can be used by a person to logon to system. There might be many roles assigned to this user. My understanding is that an Audit User is not a standard sap type user but just a dialog user and can be created with a conventional method of creating any other dialog users with a specific profile and authorizations.
Still to confirm, Can you please tell us, how many types of users does it shown in 4.6c at the time of user creation?
Best Regards,
Amol Bharti

Difference Between Database Schema and Database User Account ??

First i would like to know what an Oracle Database schema exactly is ?
And what is it for and also What is it's use ?
Later the exact "Difference Between Database Schema and Database User Account".
I googled about it but i'm unable to find out it's The difference,
Please try to explain in a simple manner........
Thank you very Much in Advance..........

Greate example. but i would like add one more point..
a user is a schema and schema is a user. but when this applies to the user that he become a schema, only if he has got some objects. so we can say while creating the user which dosent contain any objects called simple user account but afterwords when he has got an objects then we can say its a schema as the above user has shown you through the exampleIt is just word-play. There is nothing in like a 'status' indicator to say "USER_A is just a user but USER_B has become a schema". Many people use the terms "user" and "schema" interchangeably, and some very good DBAs will insist this is correct. I don't disagree with them even though I usually try to make the distinction.
In a typical application, all of the objects (tables, procedures, etc) that implement the app will be owned by a "application schema owner" - a user which exists for the sole purpose of owning the schema. Said user will have no privileges at all .. especially not CREATE SESSION. Except for possible maintenance activity no one ever actually connects as this user. User accounts are then given to actual humans who connect with their own accounts. The accounts have the necessary system and object privileges granted to them - via a role. One could also create a special account (let's call it APP_ADMIN) that is used for maintenance and batch operations within the application.

Difference between RFC adapter and a proxy

Can any one tell me the technical difference between RFC adapter and a proxy?
reg

There are advantages / disadvantages for RFC / Proxies / Idocs. So if I am in your position depending upon the requirement I will choose one. Some of the differences are:
RFC and Proxy:
RFC/BAPI has its own overhead of function call.
Proxies communicate with the XI server by means of native SOAP calls over HTTP .RFC does not, so you have to convert from SOAP to RFC calls and vice versa. So XML conversion is required.
ABAP Proxies uses Webservice and Http Protocols.
If you use ABAP Proxy , you can reduce the overhead calling the function again and again.
Proxy and Idoc:
IDOC : After recieving the strucutred data It processes it using a Function Module associated with it.
Proxy : Proxy is a structure where there is no processing function module associated. You need to explicitly write the Business Logic/Call the subroutines here
This is my absolutely my view. Another guy has his own response. So first go through your requirements and then you can decide for what to go.
Also go through this urls which may help you:

Difference between target schema and target user

hi,
Can anyone explain to me what is the difference between target schema and target user? examples will be more welcome then theoratical explanation.
thanks so much

In Oracle database schema and user is the same things (if you use general authentication by database).
When used external authentication (for example with Windows domains/active directory) schema is a owner of database objects group and you should specify mapping between external usernames and schema to which this user has access when connects to database.
For example:
- windows domain user CORPDOMAIN\USER1 can connect to oracle database schema SCOTT;
- windows domain user CORPDOMAIN\USER2 can connect to oracle database schema SCOTT;
- windows domain user CORPDOMAIN\ADMIN can connect to oracle database schema SYSTEM;

What is the difference between Business System and Business Service?

Hi
Please tell me what is the difference between Business System and Business Service...? In real time at what situation we will use Business System and in what situations we will use Business Service..? Please help me
Best Regards
Ravi Shankar B

HI,
Business system:
If you want to address a particular business system as the sender or receiver of messages, choose this service type.
A business system is an actual application system in a system landscape. A business system (service) comprises information about the inbound and outbound interfaces and the software component versions of the business system.
You usually use business system services when configuring internal company processes.
Business Service:
If you want to address an abstract business entity as the sender or receiver of messages, choose this service type.
Using a business service, you can define the technical or business subunits of the companies involved and then assign them the relevant interfaces.
You usually use business services when configuring cross-company processes. In this case, you only make your interfaces known to the business partners involved and either do not make any details about your own system landscape available, or only specific details.
For example, you can define RosettaNet Partner Interface Processes (PIPs) as business services.

Sudheer.

Difference between Business system and Business service.

Hi All,
Can any one explain in detail difference between Business system and Business service.
As we commonly say, Business service is for those system which are not in our landscape.
Can any one explain in which particular scenarios we will go for Business Service.

Bapuraj

Hi Bapuraj,
Business System
Business system is a logical system, and there is an importance on physical existence of the system.Also SLD entry is required.
It is generally used for SAP applications, this is just a general prinicple followed but not mandatory.
Business Component(formerly Service)
You use a Business Component, when you do not have the System details of the the partner system to which you want to communicate. i.e. you have not configured the partner system in SLD.
Business Service is an Absract Unit with Sender and Receiver Interfaces,In this case you need to explicitly add the message interfaces while doing configuration in ID.
It is generally used for NON-SAP applications, this is just a general prinicple followed but not mandatory.

Whats the actual difference between Business system and Business service

whats the actual difference between Business system and Business service

Business System
1) Business system is a logical system, and there is an importance on physical existence of the system.
2) Also SLD entry is required.
3)It is generally used for SAP applications, this is just a general prinicple followed but not mandatory.
4)This is defined as part of the SLD and is a physical system whose parameters are well defined.
5(Business systems refers to the physical systems, for instance the R/3 system. You define the business systems in the SLD
Business Service
1) You use a Business Service, when you do not have the System details of the the partner system to which you want to communicate. i.e. you have not configured the partner system in SLD.
2) Business Service is an Absract Unit with Sender and Receiver Interfaces,In this case you need to explicitly add the message interfaces while doing configuration in ID.
3) It is generally used for NON-SAP applications, this is just a general prinicple followed but not mandatory.
4) This is not defined as part of SLD and whose technical parameters are not completely known.
5)Business service is used when the message is not addressed to a business system. It is used mostly in B2B scenarios.

Difference between emergency state and single user mode ?

Hi,
I want to know the difference between emergency state which we normally use in suspect mode database and single user mode.
Navakanth

Emergency/suspect mode is tells you the state of the database and database is not available for user action but where as single user mode tells the user action preference. Database is active and available for the user action.
You can refer
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb522682.aspx
EMERGENCY
The database is marked READ_ONLY, logging is disabled, and access is limited to members of the sysadmin fixed server role. EMERGENCY is primarily used for troubleshooting purposes. For example, a database marked as suspect due to a corrupted log file can be
set to the EMERGENCY state. This could enable the system administrator read-only access to the database. Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role can set a database to the EMERGENCY state.
SINGLE_USER
Specifies that only one user at a time can access the database. If SINGLE_USER is specified and there are other users connected to the database the ALTER DATABASE statement will be blocked until all users disconnect from the specified database. To override
this behavior, see the WITH <termination> clause.
The database remains in SINGLE_USER mode even if the user that set the option logs off. At that point, a different user, but only one, can connect to the database.
Before you set the database to SINGLE_USER, verify the AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS_ASYNC option is set to OFF. When set to ON, the background thread used to update statistics takes a connection against the database, and you will be unable to access the database
in single-user mode. To view the status of this option, query the is_auto_update_stats_async_on column in the sys.databases catalog view.
If the option is set to ON, perform the following tasks:
Set AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS_ASYNC to OFF.
Check for active asynchronous statistics jobs by querying the sys.dm_exec_background_job_queue dynamic management view.
If there are active jobs, either allow the jobs to complete or manually terminate them by using KILL STATS JOB.

UNIX / LINUX: difference between the oracle and dba user on the filesystem

I have always logged into the server with the oracle user to perform impdp/expdp, as well as alter the tnsnames.ora file, and to run tkprof.
We're possibly going to start up a server in our datacenter where we're only going to be able to log into the server as dba. I'm being asked if that's going to be a problem for me to fulfill my duties.
Could someone give a description of the difference between the 2 accounts at the filesystem level? Or link me to a document? It's been 6+ years since we made this decision to log in as oracle, and so I am admittedly rusty on the topic.
--=cf

It is becoming more common to not allow a direct login to the server as oracle. Instead the DBAs each have their own account (and be members of the dba group). These DBAs have SUDO permission to SUDO SU (switch user) to the oracle account so that there is a log of who was operating as oracle on the server at the time. This could be what you are hearing about. Check with your sysadmins and see if this is what they intend - it should satisfy their security (and audit) requirements.

Difference between Business System and Business Service in ID

There are some tiny little doubts for a newbie which usually appear and we don't really have the answer.
We know that sometimes we two ways to implement a process, and it works for the two ways, but we not always understand why.
This was one of my doubts, what was the great difference between a Business System and a Business Service...?
Of course I had a tiny little idea but now I have the answer and maybe it will be useful to anyone who questioned about it...
A Business System is defined in the SLD and is used as sender and receiver in the ID. However in some cases, the details of the implementing application are not available(in a B2B communication, where the system belongs to a different company. A Business Service represents an abstract entity for adressing the senders and receivers of messages. Therefore, when using Business Servces, it is no longer necessary to define any Business Systems in the SLD.

Hi Goncalo,
one important difference is that a business service has no SLD entries and so also no assigned products/SWCVs. So the configuration in IB Directory can become uncomfortable if there a lot interfaces.

Udo

What is the difference between developement system and delivery system?

Hello Experts,
I have some questions regarding publishing the content on delivery system.
Could some one help me.
1) Can we use Development System as Delivery System?
2) Can we Publish a Site into Development System?
3) How to check whether the installation done in development mode or in delivery mode? I mean do we have any procedure to check ?
4) What are the Advantages of Delivery System over the Development System?
Note: I installed Webcenter sites11gR1 on Weblogic10.3 server and windows 7.
Thanks in advance
Rajendar.

Rajendar Raj wrote:
I got the answers.
1) Can we use Development System as Delivery System?
Ans:
Yes, a development system contains the same functionality as a delivery system. Conversely a delivery system doesn't have a contributor interface so it cannot be used for managing assets.
Not recommended and it also depends on the sizing of your environment and tuning. Delivery systems usually are architected with performance in mind, depending on the expected load, logs are minimal and usually Remote Satellite Servers are added. Important as well is that no content or any assets is created directly on the delivery system, you might run into unique ID constrains when you publish content from Authoring to Delivery, in your case Development.
2) Can we Publish a Site into Development System?
Ans:
Yes, you can.
Be careful this is not recommended, you can run into unique id constraints issues
3) How to check whether the installation done in development mode or in delivery mode? I mean do we have any procedure to check ?
Ans:
Look in the ominstallinfo directory, in the location where WebCenter Sites was installed. there is a file called omii.ini that contains installation-time choices and parameters. Look for the parameter "Development"
- true, indicates it was a Development type install. Advanced UI will be available, as will the Contributor UI
- false, indicates it was a Delivery type install. Only Advanced UI will be available.
4) What are the Advantages of Delivery System over the Development System?
Ans:
A delivery type install is more secure, as the contributor UI and some other editorial components are not installed. It also prevents editors from changing content on the delivery system by mistake.
In general Delivery systems are architected different, more emphasis on performance, caching and security.
Thanks and Regards

Difference betweeen Technical systems and Business systems

Hi
In a SLD we need to configure technical systems and Business systems.. what is the exact difference between Technical Systems and Business Systems..
this question is asked an interview.. for this.. how can we explain..
thanks
babu

Hi babu
First I let u know with analogy and actual definition as below
Any module of SAP like MM, SRM, FICO ets makes a logical system in combination according to business requirements is a business system which is actualy hosted on an application server like ABAP AS or Java AS which is basically a technical system.
Technical systems are application systems that are installed in system landscape (a CRM server, for example). Most systems (Web AS ABAP and Web AS Java systems) automatically report information to the SLD about the elements that they contain by using the SLD data supplier programs. You need to manually register the following types of system only:
Standalone Java systems
Third-party systems
Business systems are logical senders or receivers that exchange messages by using SAP XI and that are entered in the System Landscape Directory.
The business systems in the System Landscape Directory relate to a system landscape.
The business systems of business partners are not entered in the System Landscape Directory. To be able to address such business partners logically, use services in the Integration Directory. A business system is a way of specifying a service in the Integration Directory more precisely (business system service).
Reward point if it help u understand
