Documentation templates and naming coventions

Greetings all,
nice to join the SAP community Network
I have started working in documentation management for a big project, can any please help me to know if SAP recommends some naming conventions and Templates (as part of Best Practices)? There will be more variety of documents in coming days, however as of now below are possible types of documents in scope:
Business Blueprint
To Be Processes
Organizational Structure document (in Solution Manager)
Configuration Guide
Authorization Document
Master Data document
WRICEF Specifications
WRICEF Technical Specifications
Unit Test Cases
Integration Test Cases
Functional Test Cases
UAT Test Case
Thanks by advance

Hi again,
I think that this is a slight misunderstanding. In DMS you create document info records which are like containers for files. These document info records can be classified or some objects can be linked to them.
But the main content is the uploaded original file. This can be each file format using a workstation application that you have maintained first in DC30. This file can be a template or a finalized document that is then uploaded to a content server.
You can also define some templates that can be used to create new original files. For further information please read the online documentation at http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_06/helpdata/en/79/60e9522806b267e10000000a441470/content.htm?frameset=/en/7a/973035624811d1949000a0c92f024a/frameset.htm&current_toc=/en/d1/e8e4535dd4414de10000000a174cb4/plain.htm&node_id=149
Best regards,
Christoph

Disable-output-escaping and named templates

I am trying to combine two parts of Steve book, the "features" example that requires disable-output-escaping because the text in the db contains html, and the titledboxes xsl which is called a s a named template.
Problem is that when I call a template passing the text from the db as a content param the html gets escaped regardless of the output escaping.
I know why but I need to know a workaround that allows me to use templates and lets me keep html embeded in the db column.
Rob

This is Bug 1285505, "Disable-Output-Escaping Is Lost When Copying A Text Node" which has been fixed for the 9.0.1 release that will be posted to OTN in about the May timeframe.
In the meantime, the workaround is to build two versions of your titled-box template, one which explicitly does disable-output-escaping when it writes the content to the output, and the other one that's like what you have now.

Disable-output-escaping and named templates Part Two

Steve,
I had tried explicitly adding the disable-output-escaping inside the template and it didnt seem to have any effect.
I had assumed this was becuase it was too late, and that during the process of passing the values through to the template as a param it gets escaped so that disabling escaping inside the template has no impact.
inside the template I use
<xsl:copy-of disable-output-escaping="yes" select="$Contents" />
Any comments, am I doing something wrong
Rob
null

I think I am also seeing something similar.
When I use the command line oraxsl tool,
I can process an XML file that contains HTML
where the '<' is already replaced with the
'<' entity. To output the content, I
use :
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:value-of select="."
disable-output-escaping="yes"/>
</xsl:copy>
This works fine for oraxsl, but when I try to
process the file with my own Java class that
uses XSLStylesheet and XSLProcessor, the
output shows up as '#60;' instead of '<'...
What is happening in oraxsl that outputs the
'<' ...

May Release: New partner support, Infrastructure updates, Site templates and bug fixes

Link: http://www.businesscatalyst.com/_blog/BC_Blog/post/May-release-New-partner-support-Infrast ructure-updates-Site-templates-and_bug-fixes/
We are announcing a new Business Catalyst release, scheduled to go live on Thursday, May 3rd. With this release, we are continuing our investments in system performance and stability by increasing our web servers capacity, enabling HTTP acceleration to provide faster site loading times, and improving the site creation speed by using pre-generated sites.
On the product side, we have completely revamped our partner support workflow taking advantage of the Adobe support infrastructure and tools, enhanced the site templates workflow for partners, and included lots of bug fixes and improvements. Read through the following sections to get detailed information about this release:
Partner support
Infrastructure updates
Features and enhancements
Issues fixed by this release
What's next
You can jump to the corresponding section by clicking the above links.
Partner support
Updated Help & Support partner experience
Following Adobe ID support, we have upgraded BC support tools (cases, chat, documentation) with standard Adobe tools. As a partner, you can now benefit from the same support tools as the rest of Adobe Creative Suite, and can track your support cases with Adobe BC, Dreamweaver, Muse or Photoshop in a single place.
Partners with more than 100 paid sites will get 2nd level chat support, which includes a higher priority, by default. If you have more than 100 paid sites, but spread across different Partner Portals, please ask support to enable 2nd level chat for you.
Support experience for your Small Business owner clients can now be owned by partners (see below).
Custom Help & Support URL for your clients
As a partner, you are probably already offering various additional services to your clients besides building & maintaining their BC site. Support, tailored specifically to your client needs, is usually one of these value-added services. We are now enabling you to take your Support service to the next level. In Partner Portal Settings, you have the option to set a custom URL for what will open when your client clicks on Help & Support inside Admin Console:
If you have multiple partner accounts, for different verticals, you can specify a Support URL for each of these.
The default Support experience provided by BC for your clients will be updated in a few releases to be similar to the partner support experience. This includes BC-branded support cases and documentation. If you'd like to keep a white-label experience for your customers, please set your own Help & Support URL in Partner Portal.
For more details please read the Improved support workflow and new forums announcement on our blog.
Infrastructure updates
Between our April release and the following infrastructure updates have been enabled
Limited trial sites for free partners – starting with our May release, the number of trial sites a Free Partner can have will be limited to 100. Once the limit is reached, Free Partners that need to create a new trial site have the options to upgrade to a higher partner plan, upgrade some of the trial sites to paid or delete unused/expired trials.
Automatic trial expiry extension - with this release, trial site expiry date will be automatically extended with 30 days every time an admin user logs in the system through the admin interface or through FTP.
Installed additional hardware - we have installed additional web servers on all our data centers, that translate into an increase of the existing capacity with over 70%.
Updated DNS infrastructure - we have improved the DNS resolution for email delivery so that we can increase the rate at which we're sending the system operational emails
HTTP acceleration – all sites static assets are served from a new cache engine (images, CSS and JavaScript files, together with improved headers that should allow the browser to cache them better for a browsing session). This update has been turned on along with our April release, and has made all the BC sites load faster on first and on subsequent loads.
Accelerated site/partner creation – we've changed the way new sites are created for faster speed, pre-creating them and reusing pre-created sites when needed, and have also improved the creation process for new partners, minimizing the impact of new CCM customers on the existing datacenters.
Adobe ID for partners - in order to support an integrating experience between the various Adobe tools a partner may use (Dreamweaver, Muse, Support forums) we have added Adobe ID support for Business Catalyst partner accounts. Starting April 19, partners are asked to merge their current Business Catalyst account with their Adobe ID accounts. For more details about the transition process and FAQ please read the Introducing Adobe ID blog post.
Updated Terms of Use - Along with several other changes in our processes in the past few months, we also revamped our Terms of Use and the signature process by requesting every admin user to sign a TOU. We have completed the rollout for partners, and we might be pushing an updated partner Terms of Use version within the following weeks. For more details and questions about this change, read the New Terms of Use for Business Catalyst blog post.
Features and enhancements
Site templates
To support the increasing number of partners building, sharing or reusing templates to create new sites, we're extending our site templates support from our partner portal with a new template type and improved management support. The update is going to enable partners to mark sites as templates and choose between making them available in Online Business Builder and keeping them private in their partner portal. A template site will not expire and has the same limits as any other trial site.
Based on your partner level, you can create private or public templates using the Site Details screen or the Tools>My Site Template section from your Partner Portal. Standard partners can only create private templates, while Free Partners can only view site templates that have been transferred to their accounts by other partners.
The number of templates a partner will have will be limited and will vary based on partner level: free partners can store up to 5 templates in their partner portal, standard partners have up to 100 site templates while Premium Partners might have up to 200 templates. Paid sites marked as templates are not counted against these limits.
Business Catalyst Partner fixes
While we are really focused on making the Business Catalyst integration into Creative Cloud a smashing success, we are slowly resuming our efforts to deliver fixes that have been requested by our partners. This release includes the following partner fixes:
Improved product custom fields - we have increased the maximum number of characters for product custom fields to 1024 (previous limit was 256); this gives partners and customers additional space to use when working with products
Improved Secure Zone subscribers list - we have added the customer email address in the Secure Zone Subscribers list to enable partners better filter and manage customers
Better experience when exporting data - to prevent customer confusion when exporting data from Mac computers, we have removed the export to excel option and exporting in CSV format by default.
Social plugins integration updates
Starting with our May release, we are updating the social plugins support to require users to get the plugin code from the third party provider and saving into his Business Catalyst website. The module tags and configuration will remain unchanged, but will render an empty tag until the partner or site owner will update the module template to include the corresponding module code snippet from the third party platform provider.
For more information about how you can enable the Social Plugins on a Business Catalyst websites, read the Social Media: Integrating Facebook and Twitter knowledge base article.
Other changes
Updated weekly emails - Starting with our May release, the information in the site weekly emails has been filtered based on the site's plan. For example, webBasics site reports will no longer include the sales report.
Localization - we improved and increased the coverage of the admin interface translations into German, French and Japanese
Site Settings -> Ignored IP addresses has been relocated under Reports -> Visitors -> More.
BC-Dreamweaver integration performance improvements
Development Dashboard has been removed, as it didn't provide a clear useful, ongoing benefit. The information present in the development dashboard has been integrated into our new Help & Support section.
Payment gateway settings - for more privacy and data protection, we have updated the Payment Gateway configuration screens to obfuscate the sensitive login information. Fields that have been obfuscated are now requiring confirmation.
Report abuse badge on trial sites - for compliance reasons, a "Report Abuse" link has been added to the front-end of all trial sites of free partners that don't have any paid sites. When they click the Report Abuse link, site visitors are redirected to a form submission page on businesscatalyst.com site.

What's next
The first item on the what's next list might not be news for many of you, but it's definitely one of the most important milestones this year. The Creative Cloud launch is just around the corner, and Business Catalyst is playing an important role in that, as the publishing platform for Adobe® Muse and Dreamweaver. This launch will capture all our attention within the next weeks as we want it to be our best ever.
We'll start our next development cycle on May 15th, while the next Business Catalyst release is going to be pushed live in mid June. That being said, the following items are already on our launch plan for the next release and a few more will join the list. Please expect an update on our 2012 plans around mid May.
HTTP throttling – all page load and API calls to BC will be protected against attacks, this might trigger problems for API heavy sites. We are looking into enabling this update along with our June release, and will help make sure that a reasonable number of requests will be accepted from the same computer per minute.
Automatic site deletion - Starting with the June release, we are going to start automatically delete expired trial sites and canceled sites. Customers will be notified twice before we are going to proceed with deleting the sites.
Thank you,
Cristinel Anastasoaie
Adobe Business Catalyst Product Manager

In reference to this change in the Custom Reports... Better experience when exporting data - to prevent customer confusion when exporting data from Mac computers, we have removed the export to excel option and exporting in CSV format by default.
What is the customer confusion we are trying to stop here? I've got even more confused customers at the moment because all of a sudden they can't find the export to excel option but know it exists if they log in on a PC?

Templates and SSI

http://kirtmarkle.com/slide1.html
http://kirtmarkle.com/
http://kirtmarkle.com/gallery_frameset.html
Above I have included a link to a set of 3 slides I create
this morning in an attempt to better define my site (as well as
links to my Home and Gallery pages for reference):
Slide 1: a flowchart of the “stuff” that makes up
the site:
Red items are “class 1” elements that will not
change
Green items are “class 2” elements which could
change
Blue items are “class 2” elements used for
section-specific navigation
Brown items are “class 3” elements which will
change every page
Slide 2: the elements in their current position on the site.
The white dividers with “150px” and “145px”
are used to mark the current boundaries of the frames-based layout.
Red: graphic images placed inside CSS-P elements absolutely
positioned
Green: navigation bar placed inside CSS-P element absolutely
pos.
Blue: overlapping CSS-P elements with “previous”
and “next” buttons
(typically, there are two such 5x4 grids for each Year
Category)
Slide 3: when any of the Blue CSS-P elements are clicked,
they navigate/animate to their new position above the
“Legend”, hide the other Blue CSS-P elements and reveal
the “Legend” “Viewer”
“previous” and “next” buttons. Clicking the
image inside the “Viewer” cycles through a series of
detailed/zoom views. When the Blue CSS-P element is clicked again,
it navigates/animates to its original position, hiding the
“Legend” “Viewer” “previous”
and “next” buttons while revealing the overlapping Blue
CSS-P elements again. You’ll note, however, that the button
(in this case “D2”) swaps CSS-P element
“D2” to “D2-y” to allow the return
navigation/animation, swapping back once it reaches its original
position.
TASK: create a template containing all the class 1 elements.
Question #1: What should this template be named? Would
“page.html” suffice?
Question #2: Should the Red elements be CSS-P? Would a
navigation bar work better? If so, how does one have two navigation
bars on a page? (I refer to the Green elements)
TASK: Create server-side include files containing all class 2
elements and place them on the template as needed.
Question #3: Which elements are used to build the SSI files?
How many SSI files would need to be built? For example, for the
Green navigation bar, do I create a file with only those five
elements in a table and then save it as an SSI? How are they then
placed correctly on the template (I assume inside the CCS-P
wrapper)? How does the “Gallery” button make them
appear when clicked?
TASK: Insert editable regions to cover the class 3 items,
including the section-specific navigation.
Question #4: The same question with regards to the SSI files
required for the puzzle grid. Is each grid saved as its own SSI?
(Currently, there are nine variations of this 5x4 grid, two for
each navigation bar item except 2007) Or, since each piece is in
its own CSS-P element, does each piece need to be saved as an SSI?
Do the “previous” and “next” buttons belong
in this class 2 section-specific navigation elements?
Question #5: In the “Viewer” I cycle zoom levels.
Is a separate page to be built for each zoom level, as I have
currently done?
[Of course, I realize I’m asking for a LOT of
information. I don’t know if this is beyond the scope of this
board or if I’m overstepping my bounds by asking too many
questions. However, I believe if I can have the answers it will go
a long way towards my understanding of something that seems
essential to web design. And as I hope to make this a profession
when my skills improve, I need to learn the BEST methods for
executing the work. I apply the same attitude towards my work as an
artist, animator and, yes, word processor. I desire to be just as
proficient in the field of web design and will continue to work has
hard as necessary until I achieve that goal. The assistance
I’ve received on this board has been most helpful towards
that end.]

I am unable to spend the kind of time this would really
require, but to
say one thing: rethink the use of Absolutely Positioned
elements. There
has been much written here on this subject which you night
want to
google. But they will be more misery than you might imagine.
As a
general rule, use Divs instead.

Oracle VM 3.1.1, Oracle VM Server, PeopleSoft Templates and networking

I have installed Oracle VM Manager on an Oracle Linux x86_64 system, all freshly installed, and two Oracle VM Server 6 systems also freshly installed. These three servers are each connected to two networks. One is a 192.168.15.0/24 ("net-A"), and the other is 10.8.15.0/24 ("net-B"). net-B also has the fileserver for the repositories et al directly attached. "net-A" is connected to the outside world. This is all working great; all servers can intercommunicate, can be reached from other devices on each network, et cetera. I can ssh from any machine on the network to these machines, and vice versa. All servers correctly use the internal and the external DNS, and can communicate with Google, et cetera. Excellent!
Now, I have downloaded the templates for PeopleSoft HCM9.1, and PeopleSoft PeopleTools 8.52, and have successfully created Virtual Machines from these. The VMs start up and run successfully, and I have gone through the startup configuration prompts using the Oracle VM "Launch Console" feature.
My problem is that I have not yet figured out how Oracle VM Networking is supposed to work, and so I cannot get these machines to talk to each other nor to the outside world. And I cannot ping them from other devices on the network, either. Obviously, there's no advantage to having a PeopleSoft server running when one cannot attach to it. I've read through the documentation numerous times, and I've pored through http://itnewscast.com/chapter-7-oracle-vm-networking-8021q document over and over, but I get lost in the virtual-upon-virtual-upon-virtual world. Maybe (probably) it's me, but I am not getting how this fits together, and where/how the virtual-ness of the network ends. Plus, all of the configurations in that itnewscast.com Chapter 7 article involve at least one switch (virtual maybe? not clear!) between the VMM and the VMS, and I don't have a switch invoved in this network... it's flat, with everything on the same wire.
My Oracle VM network is super simple at present: There is exactly one network ("ps-net"), and it runs all five network channels (server management, live migrate, storage, etc.). Both servers are on this network, and the NIC used is the "net-B" NIC. There is no VLAN, and the IP addresses are set by DHCP. Bonding, the configuration display says, is Not applicable. Since these devices are on the same NIC as "net-B," I provided the 10.8.15.x network information when prompted, and assigned them fixed IP addresses on that network. For "gateway," I specified the address of the VMM, not knowing what else to use. And, as I said, these VM don't talk to anything, not even to each other.
My needs are very simple. The shame is I've built all this up for the express purpose of running those two templates, and it's been a battle, to say the least, to get this far. Who can point me to the error of my ways, or a better way to accomplish this end?
Thanks for your time, and for reading this far!

OK. Out of desire to resolve this, I have completely removed the 192.* network from this configuration, by disconnecting the eth0 networks, and changing the ifcfg-eth0 to ONBOOT=no (yes, I know either action should suffice).
So there is exactly one network involved now. (Greg King said that's OK, if scalability is not an issue, and if he said it, I believe it. I'll complicate it later, after I get simple working.) And one VMS is out of the configuration for now. So I have ora-vmm at 10.8.15.49 ora-vms1 at 10.8.15.47, and the fileserver at 10.8.15.50. ora-vms2 is at 10.8.15.48, but is down for now. The server pool address is set to 10.8.15.1. The network looks like this:
ID: 10.8.15.0
Name: ps-net1
Channels: all
Servers: ora-vms1, ora-vms2
Selected paths: ora-vms1 Port (2) (eth1), ora-vms2 Port (2) (eth1)

Wanted Oracle AIM documentation templates

Hi There,
I would appreciate if someone could be so kind and share/send/upload to me the good old Oracle AIM documentation templates.
I don't need all only couple of them, for example:
MD070, RD070, MD120, etc ...
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Viktoria

Bruce, historically there have been only two different approaches to IT documentation.
Approach 1 - there isn't any
Approach 2 - the documentation is worthless
Both approaches are in wide spread use today.
If you plan on breaking with IT tradition then I suggest you keep it simple. Plain text or html will be readable years from now without having to have the correct version of any piece of software or someone having to reformat the documentation into a new version of some product or worse trying to migrate documentation stored in one product into a different product altogether.
A simple directory structure fillled with application project definition documents, program descriptions, batch cycle descriptions, and glossaries on a network device that is actually backed up rather than just said to be backed up can prove very useful over time.

ABAP Documentation Template

Dear all,
We're going to standardize the ABAP documentaion format. Current ABAP documentation template at SE38 Documentation is as follows:
Purpose
Integration
Prerequsite
Features
Selection
Standard_Variant
Output
Activities
Example
However, we would like to create our own documentation template, such as Prog_ID, Programmer, Responsible_BY, etc.
How to modify the default documentation template? We've tried SE61 but don't know where to start at.
Regards,
Thomas

Yes, we know that we can create custom heading. But we would like to get the template loaded when programmer type in the documentation. So they don't need to type the custom heading again.
We just found that using SE61 with document class "General Text" and Name "TEMPLATE_RE" stores the ABAP documentation template.
Any one familiar with SE61 changes? Any tips or suggestion on modifying setting there?

Global template and rollouts vs. Solution Directory

Hello,
I would like to know what is the best way to maintain the global template and the related rollouts documentation.
I know the functionality of Solution Directory, ie. it should be the primary place to maintain a solution in production, changes should be done using maintenance project, checking out scenarios etc. However, my customer is running into a couple of challenges. The current situation is as follows:
- The global template phase I has been finished (containing financial template).
- The global template phase II development is starting (containing logistics template).
- The phase I template has been rolled out to five countries which all are in production.
- The phase I template will continue with new rollouts coming.
- All the country-specific rollouts are actually in one physical SAP system so there is only one system to be maintained.
I see it somehow impossible to try to maintain the template + rollout documentation in one single solution in Solution Directory. There is only one Documentation tab in the solution and if we put all the country-specific documentation there it is a mess. Furthermore, all the rollout projects are separate, it would be difficult to manager rollout projects with one maintenance project. Not to add the fact the compare and adjust functionality applies only to template projects not solution.
I have the feeling that we would need continue maintaining the global template and rollout projects in SolMan Implementantion projects (template + rollout projects, template versions, compare and adjustment etc.). Only if I want to start process monitoring I would use solution but otherwise it cannot be very much utilized at the moment.
Any comments? Have I missed something here now? I would appreciate any practical experiences about this.
Br,
Timo

Hi Timo -
The situation you are experiencing is similar to what I have seen. And that is...ensuring Solution Directory is the "Single source of the Truth". It is almost impossible when you have two parallel activities going on between 1) SAP implementation projects and 2) SAP maintainence/sustain activities in production.
Solution Manager seems to be a great tool for companies that are in a sustain mode, resolving issues when found in production. We recently decided to change our approach from SAP's recommended and best practice of using the Solution Directory connected to a Maintainence project and implementation projects being seperate rollout initiatives managed seperately. Instead, we have changed our "Solution Manager Landscape" to encompass all activites into a 1 template project. We now don't plan on going back to the SAP best practice of Solution Manager until we are completely done implementing SAP and we have identified what our true business processes are. For example: creating the Business Process Hierarchy.

Question on templates and updating linked files

OK I have a master template file. Let's say it is named
a.dwt. I used a.dwt to create another template (b.dwt) that had
more content on it than a.dwt. I would use b.dwt to create a group
of similar looking pages which still had all the elements of a.dwt
but also the additional content of b.dwt.
Now if I make a change to the a.dwt template, all pages
created from a.dwt change except b.dwt. So either I forgot to
create the b.dwt by going to file->new->page from
template->and then save it as a .dwt OR maybe it's not possible
to have a secondary template that gets updated when the first
template gets updated thus causing all pages from the secondary
template to get updated?
Is there any way to go back and make b.dwt update
automatically whenever a.dwt gets updated? The scenario I have
right now is that I have to make certain site changes on both a.dwt
and b.dwt instead of just making the change on a.dwt and that
change flowing into b.dwt and its spawned pages.

Yes, I think that's a possible scenario.

I see. Are you using "mailto:" on each of those forms? This
method of
sending form data is notioriously unreliable, you know? It
depends on a)
your visitor's browser knowing what to do with such a link,
and b) your
visitor's email client knowing what to do with such a link,
and c) your
visitor not being put off by the security alert message that
may pop up when
they click. Nevermind the fact that it fails completely in
public locations
that do not have an email client installed.
Why not do this the right way with server scripting? In that
case you could
have a single page with a single form, and let the visitor
select a name as
the recipient from a list/menu field.

Trouble using Custom Template and Saving Resulting Document. Help!

I created a Custom Template in Numbers '09. When I go hit "New from Template Chooser", there it is. I've tried entering info directly into the template, as well as duplicating it and entering info in the duplicated document. I can enter the info just fine, but.... Either way, when I'm done I do not have an option to Save, Save As or anything like that. I only see "Save As Template".....but it's already a perfectly good template. I don't want to Save As Template and create another template!!!. I want a named document saved, using the great template I already put together. Is this a problem? What's up? Why can't I do this???? Please help!

I'm on an iMac running 10.7.5. (Afraid to go further because I have FInal Cut Pro 7 and I'm very attached to it....I'm afraid to upgrade my OS and have FCP not work! I'm a pro and not so willing to go to FCP 10). Anyway, I'm on an iMac 3.06 GHz Intel Core 4 GB, 1333 MHz RAM.
I'm running Numbers ''09 and don't have 13, so it's an 09 template entering 09 info. It's perfect. I run webinars and it contains all of the status for media and every detail of any upcoming webinar production. My goal is to open the template, enter the info, and save it with the name of the webinar client. Then open again, enter for another client, save, etc.
It's just 09 all the way through. It says I can Save a Version or Save as Template.
Should I open a template and then Duplicate so it's a fresh document? I do that sometimes in hopes of seeing an option to SAVE AS. Sometimes I open and Don't Duplicate, but just use the template. Either way I see no way of saving the document with the specific information for the client. I don't want to Save As Template! Who wants hundreds of templates running around that are all virtually the same except for the info entered within it.
Am I missing the boat here?

VI Templates and Remote Panels

My system creates multiple test windows using a dynamic load of a VI template, and I wish to have Remote Panel access to each of these test windows. The user does not need to instantiate the windows remotely, only access them. So, when each window is created, it creates it's own HTML file so a user can access it. It worked just great for .snap publishing -- so far, so good.
However, my VI template is a little unusual, because within it there are other VI-template subVIs. I do this because I make use of LV2 global variables (acts as a passive G object with it's own data space), and each window has it's own local copy of that template subVI.
Now when I try to access the Remote Panel on my instantiated test window, I get an error like this "The VI named 'Test Window 1.vi' contains unsaved untitled subVIs. Cannot save the VI before all its untitled subVIs are committed to the disk'. This error indicates that my template-subVI instantiations need to be saved in order for the Remote Panel to work. I'm not sure why this is a requirement, but let's go along with it for now.
So I went ahead and used a VI server method to save the untitled subVI instantiations to a temporary directory, with the intention of deleting them when the test window is closed. It worked! Kind of... it worked in development mode, but didn't work when I built the executable. The executable gives me error 1043: "Not supported in this version" when it tries to save the untitled subVIs (even though I specify to save WITHOUT the block diagram, which obviously isn't there).
Is there a way out of this quandry?
Thanks for your help,

Hello again everybody,
Sorry I have to re-submit my post. I found a bug in my demo (where the VI name referenced in the HTML did not match the running window). Also, I made it to dynamically set up the web server path, to make it easier on you.
BTW, this is in LV 7.0. And a warning: this problem is not for the faint-of-heart. I somewhat doubt there is a solution without NI changing how Remote Panels works.
Again, my apologies for the previous bug.

UDM template and Notification Rules

Hi,
As i am first time working with EM grid control have few question upon organizing some things for better feasibility. I am familiar with the creation of a UDM template and creating notification rules. But I am lacking in proper organization of these thing. I have been provided the events (customized) categorized say security, performance, etc. So i have created a UDM for these events separately for testing. So to create template, how shall i proceed, is there any standard process or anything that would be helpful in all means.
I was having different ways, like as i already created UDM's
(1) create template for each event (UDM and out-of-box),
(2) create template for events by category (UDM and out-of-box) ,
(3) Create one standard template for all the UDM's and out-of-box events ,
(4) Create templates based on OS UDM , SQl UDM and outof box metric events.
(5) Create templates based on Host and database events.
these are of few different way in which i am having in my mind. But not sure of feasibility solution.
Also if am not wrong templates are only for applying to targets and they are not related w.r.t notification. So w.r.t notification I would like to know is that it would be better to categorize them with in default rules or make separate rules.
Sorry for such series of question.
Thanks.

Thanks Rob. I came across one more thing while i am working with metrics. I see the metrics and policy settings pages differs w.r.t database version's,
Say for example, with in 11g database metrics and policy settings i see following metrics,
(1) Access Violation and (2) Access Violation Status, but i dont see these in 10g version database metrics and policy settings page. In 10g i see Following metrics
(3) Active Sessions Waiting: I/O and (4) Active Sessions Waiting: Other which i see in 11g version database metrics and policy settings page but can't see on 9i
version database metrics and policy settings page.
So under such circumstances if i create a template w.r.t target type say database, that would have only the selected version while creating the database. Is that like do we need to create template for each database instance ?
As i see we have an option of including the metrics present in another database version too, but if we add those into one what would be result as few metrics one instance is not aware of and also i see one situation where in one of the metrics to check for the database instance status differs from 9i and 10G ( i mean the naming conventions) In this case if i add both , we are going to get an alert twice as i presume. How to handle such situations while creating a standard template.
Please advise if this need to be created w.r.t target type how to create it. Is that we can create w.r.t each version of database instanc target type too.
Thanks.

Dreamweaver template and conditional logic

I would like to create a DW template and show or hide content using conditional logic. Can this be done?
Thx!

tangonovember wrote: I would like to create a DW template and show or hide content using conditional logic. Can this be done?
If the following quote is of interest to you, check out Chapter 14 of the CS3 DW manual.
"An optional region is a region in a template that users can set to show or to hide in a template-based document. Use an optional region when you want to set conditions for displaying content in a document.
When you insert an optional region, you can either set specific values for a template parameter or define conditional statements (If...else statements) for template regions. Use simple true/false operations, or define more complex conditional statements and expressions. You can later modify the optional region if necessary. Based on the conditions you define, template users can edit the parameters in template-based documents they create and control whether the optional region is displayed.
You can link multiple optional regions to a named parameter. In the template-based document, both regions will show or hide as a unit. For example, you can show a “closeout” image and sales price text area for a sale item."

What is the difference between VI Template and vi that is reenterant?

What is the difference between VI Template and vi that is reenterant?
From what little info I can find about them, they seem to basically do the same thing....
What are the difference?
What are the pros and cons of each?
Thanks alot for the help.....

I inherited an app that uses .vit for the purpose of having multipe separate instances.
Thanks,
OK, here's what happens when you call a VI Template using Call by Reference or using Invoke and Property Nodes.
Since the VI you are calling is a template, LabVIEW creates a new instance of that VI by creating a copy of it and giving a new name. Notice in the title bar of the instantiated VI the VI name is the same as the template VI plus a number. This is the same thing you see when you open a template from the "New..." menu. So if you call the template VI 3 times, you'd end up with 5 newly instantiated VIs named, "VI Name 1.vi", "VI Name 2.vi" and "VI Name 3.vi". This is how you end up with multiple instances.
Reentrancy only works on subVIs when they are used as a normal subVI in a top level application. Using Call by Reference or Invoke and Property Nodes to open and run a reentrant VI results in the VI only being opened once because LabVIEW will not automatically give it a new name. The new name is only generated when calling templates. Since LabVIEW can only a have a single instance of VI name in memory at a time, you'll not end up with multiple instances.
Not sure if I can help with the know issue on OSX. If it's specific to using the Call by Reference function, you could try calling the templates using Invoke and Property nodes.

Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.
