Dynamically changing SCCM Cache Size

Has anyone come up with a 'clean' method to increase the SCCM Cache size as part of a large application deployment?
For example, we have a 8GB adobe application that is larger than our default client cache size - 5GB. We have made the switch to all SSDs, so preserving disk space is a necessity.
The option of increasing the cache on all clients is not appetizing. We attempted to make a dependance on another application that will increase the cache size, but the client will not run the dependency if the size of the first application is larger than
the cache.
We COULD run the application as part of a task sequence, but this would mean our software portal users would need to know to shop for a task sequence rather than software for these few applications that exceed cache size.
Anyone come up with a better solution for this?

Jorgen,
Many of our users are over remote WAN links, and we use 1e Nomad to alleviate network contention. Doing as you suggested would work, once - then my network administrators would kill me.
We have made the strategic decision to try and avoid the use of packages, but this may have to fall into the ugly 'exception' bucket. Unfortunately doing so would make it unavailable during OSD. (We are using a MDT BCD integrated task sequence.. there is
no good way to do 2 packages and then 2 application and then a package and then an application so we just cut the cord and said anything in OSD has to be an application used by the coalescedApplications variable)...
But appreciate the thought.

  • How do I Change the Cache size?

    I have an iBook G4 and am trying to change the cache size for this screen saver I downloaded.
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.9)  

    Hi
    Curious which screensaver you are referring to?
    Screensavers can be processor intensive, requiring a certain level of computing power to avoid flicker or stuttering. The G4 iBook is not that type of machine.
    Some Screen Savers have a preference file (accessed through the Desktop and Screen Saver System Pref Panel - highlight the saver, and select "options" if one is available) where you can adjust the operating speeds and other parameters. Otherwise, I don't believe there is anything more you can do.
    I notice a big difference in certain screen savers running on my G5 iMac vs. my iBook, with the former handling the screen movement much more easily.

  • Dynamic change of box size in sapscript

    Hi,
    Can i change the box size dynamically depends on internal table records?
    For example,If the internal table contains 5 records,box size should be small and if the same internal table contains 100 records in future box size should vary accordingly.
    Eagerly waiting for reply.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Siddharth,
    It is possible from print program.
    <b>DATA COM(100).
    com = 'BOX WIDTH ''17.5'' CM HEIGHT 5 CM FRAME 10 TW INTENSITY 15'.
    CALL FUNCTION 'CONTROL_FORM'
      EXPORTING
        COMMAND         = COM
    EXCEPTIONS
      UNOPENED        = 1
      UNSTARTED       = 2
      OTHERS          = 3
    </b>
    The variable com you can change the values in program .
    You You can use all the options of BOX command this way . But the limitation is this will only work for main window as if it were defined at the top of main window . To position the box correctly you may also use the "POSITION" command .
    Cheers.

  • Trying to change the cache size of FF3.6 from 75meg to a larger size, it only applies on a per session basis. i check the about:config and the changes have applied but when i restart FF it has reset itself to 75 :(

    as per the question, tried to up the cache from 75meg to 300meg but it resets after i restart firefox, have tried to change to various cache sizes but to no avail.
    -=EDIT=-
    it must be something to do with the profile, as when i set up a new profile in the manager, the cache size problem no longer appears. but now, how to repair my profile

    ok, nothing in that text file helped but the original file that it was based on pointed me in the direction that it might be an extension. The only extensions i have are NoScript and FasterFox Lite version....
    I have now traced the fault to lie with FasterFox... if you are not familiar with fasterfox it speeds up internet connections in firefox... several of the options are presets... but when i selected custom it gave me the option of a cache setting, which was set to 75megs.
    I have now changed that cache setting in fasterfox to 300 Megs and it is now persistant in firefox on restart.
    hopefully this information will be helpful to other people in the future that suffer the same problem.
    Thanks for your help TonyE, its greatly appreciated

  • Change browser cache size on BlackBerry Z10

    I love Z10 browser that support flash.
    But I can't find setting to modify browser cache size.
    On the Device monitor>storage, i see that browser use space only 124MB, maybe the cache is 120MB.
    Currently I need cache size around 1GB to play a game.
    Is there a way to increase the browser disk cache size?

    Behavior of OBIEE in using cache is (both in 10g as well as 11g),
    When you select a specific dashboard or analysis, Presentation Services checks its cache to determine if the identical results have recently been requested.
    If so, Presentation Services returns the most recent results, thereby avoiding unnecessary processing by the Oracle BI Server and the back-end database. If not, the analysis is issued to the Oracle BI Server for processing.
    If the Oracle BI Server has cached results that can satisfy your request, the resutls are returned from that cache. If not, Oracle BI Server issues the request to the back-end database.
    There are some ways to bypass Oracle BI Presentation Services cache but you cannot force your request past the Oracle BI Server's cache.
    So, you need to clear both the caches to get the updated data.
    Thanks,

  • Smartforms-Dynamic Change of Font Size in main window

    Hi Friends,
       How shall I be able to change dynamically the font size in main window of smartform. If the records are more in main window then the layout comes in 2 pages but if less in 1 page. So I want to decrease the font if the records are more to assign it in 1 page.
    Eg : I can print only 10 lines in 1 page of main window, but if the records exceed 10 lines it is going to next page, so I want to shrink the font size to maintain the layout in 1 page.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Somen
    Edited by: Das_SAP on Jun 23, 2009 7:59 AM

    Hi,
    SmartForms does not offer the option to set some characteristics at runtime. You must work with conditions in your form.
    First find out how many records you have in your table
    DESCRIBE TABLE mytable RECORDS sy-tfill.
    You create 2 texts nodes with the text to be output and assign the font and font size to them. Obviouly, one node will have a big font size and the other one a normal font size but both contain the same information and same variables.
    You can now work with an alternative. If the condition (there are many records for a secondpage) is true, assign text node with normal font size to option TRUE and the other text node to FALSE.
    Optionally, every text node has folder CONDITIONS, where you can say
    SY-TFILL >   10 lines  <-- for text node with normal font size
    SY-TFILL <= 10 lines  <-- for text node with big font size

  • Purge, Resize or change ACR cache in Elements

    " 1. In Adobe Bridge, choose Edit > Camera Raw Preferences (Windows) or Bridge > Camera Raw Preferences (Mac OS), or, with the Camera Raw dialog box open, click the Open Preferences Dialog button .
    2. Do any of the following:
    To change the cache size, enter a Maximum Size value.
    To purge the camera raw cache, click the Purge Cache button.
    To change the location of the camera raw cache, click Select Location."
    This is from the help for CS3.
    When I open the preferences for ACR in PSE6 there is no button to Purge the Cache, resize the cache or change its location.
    How can I make any of these changes for ACR in PSE6?

    Thank you Thomas , however
    Why then does the ACR cache fill up when running Elements; mine is at its 1GB limit. If it is not being used should it not be empty?

  • Cache Size error

    We have a few users that occasionally receive the following:
    OLAP_error (1200601): Not enough memory for formula execution. Set MAXFORMULACACHESIZE configuration parameter to [2112]KB and try again.
    Our Essbase admin is suggesting that rather than increase the MAXFORMULACACHESIZE, that we reduce the maximum number of rows that are allowed to be returned.  Thoughts on that?. 
    2 other questions:
    Are there any issues with increasing the MAXFORMULACACHESIZE to a much larger number than what the error message recommends? (let's say 9000KB for the sake of this discussion).  In the DBAG I think it says it will only use what is needed.
    Are there any issues with setting the maximum rows allowed to be returned to a very high number (such as 1 million rows to reflect that max number of rows excel can handle)?

    Answer for both of your questions is a "No" . There wont eb any problem if you change teh cache size nor Increasing the row limit.But in Practical Conditions there will be no reports in any Financial organization retrieving a Million rows , so it is better to split the workbook for a faster retrieval and better performance.

  • Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than [100] ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry(a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).

    Hi,
    Our Environment is Essbase 11.1.2.2 and working on Essbase EAS and Shared Services components.One of our user tried to run the Cal Script of one Application and faced this error.
    Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than [100] ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry(a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).
    I have done some Google and found that we need to add something in Essbase.cfg file like below.
    1012704 Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than number ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry (a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).
    Possible Problems
    Analytic Services could not lock enough blocks to perform the calculation.
    Possible Solutions
    Increase the number of blocks that Analytic Services can allocate for a calculation:
    Set the maximum number of blocks that Analytic Services can allocate to at least 500. 
    If you do not have an $ARBORPATH/bin/essbase.cfg file on the server computer, create one using a text editor.
    In the essbase.cfg file on the server computer, set CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH to 500.
    Stop and restart Analytic Server.
    Add the SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH command to the beginning of the calculation script.
    Set the data cache large enough to hold all the blocks specified in the CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH setting. 
    Determine the block size.
    Set the data catche size.
    Actually in our Server Config file(essbase.cfg) we dont have below data  added.
    CalcLockBlockHigh 2000
    CalcLockBlockDefault 200
    CalcLockBlocklow 50
    So my doubt is if we edit the Essbase.cfg file and add the above settings and restart the services will it work?  and if so why should we change the Server config file if the problem is with one application Cal Script. Please guide me how to proceed.
    Regards,
    Naveen

    Your calculation needs to hold more blocks in memory than your current set up allows.
    From the docs (quoting so I don't have to write it, not to be a smarta***:
    CALCLOCKBLOCK specifies the number of blocks that can be fixed at each level of the SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH | DEFAULT | LOW calculation script command.
    When a block is calculated, Essbase fixes (gets addressability to) the block along with the blocks containing its children. Essbase calculates the block and then releases it along with the blocks containing its children. By default, Essbase allows up to 100 blocks to be fixed concurrently when calculating a block. This is sufficient for most database calculations. However, you may want to set a number higher than 100 if you are consolidating very large numbers of children in a formula calculation. This ensures that Essbase can fix all the required blocks when calculating a data block and that performance will not be impaired.
    Example
    If the essbase.cfg file contains the following settings:
    CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH 500  CALCLOCKBLOCKDEFAULT 200  CALCLOCKBLOCKLOW 50 
    then you can use the following SET LOCKBLOCK setting commands in a calculation script:
    SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH; 
    means that Essbase can fix up to 500 data blocks when calculating one block.
    Support doc is saying to change your config file so those settings can be made available for any calc script to use.
    On a side note, if this was working previously and now isn't then it is worth investigating if this is simply due to standard growth or a recent change that has made an unexpected significant impact.

    RE: "P.S. I  found it aggravating that I couldn't copy and paste text  here, it wanted me to insert as a link or an image, how do you insert plain  text?"
    I take it you tried using the "right click" menu?   That doesn't seem to work, as you noted, but, you should be able to paste text by pressing your CTRL key  and while holding it down, press the "V" letter  key.
    CTRL + C = COPY
    CTRL + X = CUT
    CTRL + V = PASTE

  • Statement cache size - application changes withouth restart

    Hi, I would like to ask, how can I disable statement cache withouth restart.
    If I set statement cache size to "0" and push button "Apply chanes", I got
    message "No restart are necessary". Does it mean, that statement cache is
    flushed? There is production environment and I would like to make sure
    about it.
    Thank you in advance.
    Vladislav Rames, WLS 10.3.4

    Yes, setting the statement cache size is dynamic. A running server will close all cached
    statements and do no more caching, as soon as you set the cache size to zero.

  • Can't change ACR cache location or size

    Whenever I go to change the location of the cache, or even its size, the value immediately resets back the next time I open the preferences panel. Same happens if I try to do this in ACR 6.1. The location that I want to point it at is perfectly valid, on my local drive, and I have all permissions for it.
    Since Adobe apps are slightly retarded and don't follow symlinks, an attempt to sneak in a different location under a symlink ended up as expected in a crash.
    Any ideas how to change the ACR cache path, or why it would be failing? No messages in the Console. OSX 10.6.4, Nehalem MacPro.

    No, links don't really work with any Adobe apps, at least not on OSX. Just try to create a symlink to any of the Camera Raw settings folders (lens profiles, camera profiles - so that they are all the same on all my computers) - no dice. I write OSX software for a living and know my way with symlinks - not sure what Adobe is doing but they don't work.
    But that's not the issue here - my question is why I can't change the cache directory the "normal, pedestrian way" (your average user won't know anything about symlinks).

  • Dynamically change stage size on runtime

    Hi everyone,
    I need to change the stage size dynamically.
    When i try to do this............
    size_mc.onRelease = function(){
        trace(Stage.height);
        Stage.height += 100;
        trace(Stage.height);
    it comes always the current stage size.
    Thanks in advance

    You cannot change the width and height properties of the Stage using code--it must be done in the editor.  The width and height values can represent different things depending on the value you set for the scale mode, but you cannot reassign them to different values dynamically.
    The solution just offered to you is under the same rules, the stageWidth and stageHeight values cannot be assigned using code, but that code is AS3 code so it will not fit in your AS2 design in any case.
    The same goes for the followup offered in AS2.  You will notice the stage size is not being changed... it cannot be.  This is just a full screen design solution, but is not a soltuion to changing the stage size.  The stage size can only be changed manually in the authoring environment.  I don't know that the offering is answering what you are really trying to do, but it is not answering the titled task of dynamically changing the stage size

  • Adjusting je cache size dynamically.

    Hi,
    I am using JE 4.1.17 and trying to adjust the cache size of the environments dynamically. EnvironmentMutableConfig provides a setCacheSize() method but does not seem to take effect for me.
    For experimentation I execute the following snippet every 10 mins,
    environment.getMutableConfig().setCacheSize(environment.getMutableConfig().getCacheSize()/2);
    Am I missing something?

    Hi,
    You need to call setMutableConfig after calling setCacheSize on the config object.

    Pleas help me regarding this.
    Thanns in advance.
    Sharad

    You can't actually change the page size.
    But there are some things may help in this respect.
    In the report layout you can have some frames that include different layouts for the same data and print those frames conditionally.
    Or you may use two different .rdf for two different page sizes.
