Easing the Pain of Repetitive Tasks in WCS

Hey All -
I normally use a custom scripted process to pre-configure all of my APs (name, location, controller IPs, channel, power, etc.).  But on occasion the names change following construction, planning, etc.  So I have been in WCS changing the names of a few APs.  I use the search bar to find my APs by name (they're prefixed with a building name identifier).  Then I choose the Configure List.  I finally sort that by AP name ascending.  The problem comes when you click on the first AP you want to change and it takes you to the AP configuration page in the same window.  Now you've essentially lost that custom list you searched for.  It would be better if such windows opened in a new one or a tab so that when we're done editing we simply close it, and I've forwarded that request to the folks at Cisco.  In the mean time, here's my workaround:
Go through the normal procedure for getting that custom list.  Now right click on the column header you want to sort by and select 'Copy Link Location'.  The page uses GET variables to send the request to WCS for what information to display.  So after you've made your changes and saved them, you could either do the sloppy 'BACK BACK' in your browser's history, or just simply paste your url back into the location bar and voila!  Your custom search has returned, showing your updated information.
Rinse.
Repeat.
Here is my custom url for searching all APs that are in the building 'MS', show ALL results (i.e. 999999), and only show me the 2.4 GHz ones (802_11b).  BTW, why does the config list return all APs and list each one twice by 2.4 and 5 GHz when clicking either link takes you to the same page?  That's why I filter my results by just the 2.4 radios to take out our duplicates for this task.
My url:
https://x.x.x.x/webacs/searchLradIfAction.do?
orderByColumn=lradIfName&
isAscending=true&
itemsPerPage=999999999&
pager.offset=0&&
searchApType=lradName&
severity=0&
timeInterval=-1&
searchRadioType=802_11b&
apText=MS&
deviceIpAddress=x.x.x.x&
campusKey=606&
buildingKey=&
outdoorKey=&
operation=configList&
operation=configList&
wcsAddress=&
support11n=false&
siCapable=false&
siEnabled=false&
searchType=All&
searchText=&
isQuickSearch=false&
controllerIpForName=x.x.x.x&
searchApByType=LWAPP&
searchByApMode=0&
officeExtendAp=false
Normally this is without line returns, but I am displaying it this way so that you can see what each of the GET parameters are.  Try creating different searches to learn what each of the parameters are.  For example, for 'searchByApMode' you see the value of '0'.  This corresponds to 'local' in the list of AP modes.  Incrementing by 1 will get you the next and so on.  I think a couple are typos on Cisco's part, unfortunately.  The parameters 'siCapable' and 'siEnabled' as you can guess really should be 'isCapable' and 'isEnabled'.  I also don't know why 'operation=configList' is in there twice, nor do I know why 'pager.offset=0' is followed by two ampersands.  Usually arguments are separated by just one each.
Hope this helps!

Scott

This is a great time saver! Thanks Scott!

  • Script to ease the pain of using setfacl

    Edit : New version - https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=176379 (29/1/2014)
    Hello everyone,
    setfacl is very useful, but I find setting files individually very frustrating, especially when you have to set a lot of files/folders, and you might have to do it again after an update.
    I discovered setfacl a while ago, but due to the above reason, I don't rely on it too much.
    Until recently, I came up with the idea of having a script to process a config file of restrictions, hence the script and file I want to share, and hope you find it useful.
    There are basically two files, _setfacl.sh is the script, setfacl_file_list is the config.
    _setfacl.sh has 582 lines, so I will just leave the pastebin page here : http://pastebin.com/Ls54eE8G
    setfacl_file_list is a short one, nonetheless, here's the pastebin page : http://pastebin.com/1gP1NFTn
    I will demonstrate the use of the script below.
    Assume you put the two files in same directory, and chmod u+x _setfacl.sh, then run it
    (_setfacl.sh will not execute actual setfacl command yet, currently it will only show generated command)
    You will see the following
    $ ./_setfacl.sh
    0 Warning
    No config error detected
    setfacl -m u:user2:--- file1
    setfacl -m u:user3:--- file1
    setfacl -m u:user4:--- file1
    setfacl -m g:group2:--- file1
    setfacl -m u:user2:rwx file2
    setfacl -m u:user3:rwx file2
    setfacl -m u:user4:rwx file2
    setfacl -m g:group2:rwx file2
    setfacl -x u:user2 file3
    setfacl -x g:group1 file3
    How does that work? Lets take a look at the config file, shall we?
    # NO will change the action, '-m' to '-x'
    # ALL implies all users/groups
    # RESTRICT USER/GROUP and EXCLUDE USER/GROUP can be used once within one ACL block
    # One ACL block = NO/RESTRICT...END
    # In other words,ACL blocks must start with NO or RESTRICT and ends with END
    # RESTRICT,PERM and END must be present, NO and EXCLUDE are optional.
    # PERM specifies the default permission for a single segment
    # However, you can also specify it individually, like shown below (line 16)
    # The script will ignore comments, empty lines or lines filled with spaces
    RESTRICT USER ALL # The script will ignore inline comments as well, like this one
    RESTRICT GROUP group2
    EXCLUDE USER user1
    PERM rwx
    file1 --- # At here, --- replaces rwx, so file1 has permission of ---
    file2
    END
    NO # Since this ACL block starts with NO, the generated operation
    RESTRICT USER user2 # will be "setfacl -x ..." instead of "setfacl -m ..."
    RESTRICT GROUP group1
    PERM 5 # You can also use number instead of string to specify permission
    file3
    END
    I think the comments inside of it explains pretty well, so I will only make additional explanation on top of those comments.
    The number of warnings shown means the number of non-critical mistakes you have,
    for instance, you will have to specify an array of users and groups in _setfacl.sh,
    if you type in a user or a group which does not exist in those arrays, it will give you a warning, but it will not stop working.
    Hence, "No config error detected", no critical errors detected, it will process the config.
    Since it continues to run, it generates the setfacl commands.
    setfacl -m u:user2:--- file1
    setfacl -m u:user3:--- file1
    setfacl -m u:user4:--- file1
    setfacl -m g:group2:--- file1
    setfacl -m u:user2:rwx file2
    setfacl -m u:user3:rwx file2
    setfacl -m u:user4:rwx file2
    setfacl -m g:group2:rwx file2
    setfacl -x u:user2 file3
    setfacl -x g:group1 file3
    I will only examine the first ACL block here, just to demonstrate the logic of the config.
    At the first ACL block of config, ( refer to comments in config file for definition of ACL block)
    it starts with "RESTRICT", so the option of setfacl will be "-m"
    "RESTRICT USER ALL", the array contains user1 to user4, so all are selected.
    "RESTRICT GROUP group2", the array contains group1 to group2, so it accepts this input.
    "EXCLUDE USER user1", here it removes user1 from the previous RESTRICT statement,
    so you can't see "setfacl -m u:user1:--- file1" in the generated output,
    but you can see "setfacl -m u:user2:--- file1" to "setfacl -m u:user4:--- file1"
    file1 has individually specified permission, hence "---" for setfacl permission
    file2 doesn't have specified permission, so it will use default permission of the ACL block,
    "PERM rwx", default permission is "rwx" for this ACL block, so file2 has "rwx" for its related permission.
    The script will try to detect syntax/input errors, so feel free to make the config file incorrect and see how it reacts.
    I spent two days on this script, so it's poorly documented and might lack certain features.
    It may also contain bugs at the error detection as well.
    Please let me know what you think about it or report any bug of it.
    Thank you for your time,
    Darren
    Edit : The script will handle normal file names, but furtherwork is needed in case your config include asterisk(*) or your file name is "END". I am working on those and will clean up my script a bit while I'm at it. (14/12/2013)

    Hi,
    the script could look like:
    if (typeof(app.viewerVersion) != "undefined")
    if (app.viewerVersion < 8.0)
         xfa.host.messageBox("Your Version of Adobe Reader is to old...");
    You can use it in the docReady:Event of your form to inform the users.

  • Automating some repetitive tasks

    Hello, I'm looking for an Acrobat plug-in or script that will allow me automate _some_ of the repetitive tasks that I do.
    For multi-sheet document, I need to:
    1) extract each page as separate file with each open in its own window
    2) crop image
    3) close window
    4) dialog will prompt me to enter filename for it (Note: default filename will usually start with the text "Pages from ... ")
    5) repeat until end.
    I'd like to automate step 1, 3 (maybe?), and 5, while I manually specify the crop boundary (2) and type in its filename (4).
    Thanks,
    Devin

    Yep, I'll be testing this thoroughly!
    But if it passes all my rigorous tests :D then that's one big issue taken care of and I believe a good enhancement to anyone's Apex skills.
    I'll report back with my findings!
    Edit: the export looks fine to my untrained eye, so maybe I'll try it out with my application (so far I only tested on my laptop test Apex installation)
    Haven't tested the text messages script yet, just the application items, but I figure it should be no different.

  • Firefox won't start properly. The process begins in task manager, but the program doesn't start.I have restarted the computor, and updated my plug-ins. Don't know what to do next. It will open in safe mode, but not regularly.

    When we click on the icon to start firefox even though the process opens in task manager, the program screen doesn't open

    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.

  • Installed Adobe dlm add-on and now Firfox will not open. I see the process starting in Task Manager but no window opens. Unistalled Firefox then re-installed but still no luck. HELP ME!

    ''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/793259]''
    I installed Adobe dlm add-on and now Firefox will not open. I see the process starting in Task Manager but no window opens. Unistalled Firefox then re-installed but still no luck. HELP ME! I do not want to use IE! I presume it has something to do with Adobe DLM as ever since then it is not working.

    I had this problem for a couple weeks as well and it was extremely frustrating considering we use firefox for all our company tasks. Here is the solution:
    First of all if you have no bookmarks you want to save, then go directly to step 7. If you want to save your bookmarks first, then follow these steps.
    1. Shut down the computer
    2. Reboot and open firefox
    3. Go to Task Manager, right click firefox.exe, and click END PROCESS TREE
    4. WAIT 30 SECONDS! Then Double-click the shortcut to try and open firefox again
    5.Repeat steps 3 and 4 until firefox finally opens (trust me, eventually it will)
    6. Once it finally opens, backup your bookmarks,
    7. Download a copy of firefox from there website
    8. Uninstall from programs menu and make sure to check the box REMOVE ALL COMPONENTS
    9. install the new copy and BOOM! it works
    If it doesn't work, you're an idiot. If you don't want to reinstall firefox, then you're out of luck. Good Luck!

  • The subtle use of task flow "No Controller Transaction" behavior

    I'm trying to tease out some subtle points about the Task Flow transactional behavior option "<No Controller Transaction>".
    OTN members familiar with task flows in JDev 11g and on wards would know that task flows support options for transactions and data control scope. Some scenarios based on these options:
    a) When we pick options such as "Use Existing Transaction" and shared data control scope, the called Bounded Task Flow (BTF) will join the Data Control Frame of its caller. A commit by the child does essentially nothing, a rollback of the child rolls any data changes back to when the child BTF was called (i.e. an implicit save point), while a commit of the parent commits any changes in both the child and parent, and a rollback of a parent loses changes to the child and parent.
    A key point to realize about this scenario is the shared data control scope gives both the caller and called BTF the possibility to share a db connection from the connection pool. However this is dependent on the configuration of the underlying services layer. If ADF BC Application Modules (AMs) are used, and they use separate JNDI datasources this wont happen.
    b) When we pick options such as "Always Begin New Transaction" and isolated data control scope, the called BTF essentially has its own Data Control Frame separate to that of the caller. A commit or rollback in either the parent/caller or child/called BTF are essentially isolated, or in other words separate transactions.
    Similar to the last point but the exact opposite, regardless how the underlying business services are configured, even if ADF BC AMs are used with the same JNDI data source, essentially separate database connections will be taken out assisting the isolated transactional behavior with the database.
    This brings me back to my question, of the subtle behavior of the <No Controller Transaction> option. Section 16.4.1 of the Fusion Guide (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/web.1111/b31974/taskflows_parameters.htm#CIHIDJBJ) says that when this option is set that "A new data control frame is created without an open transaction." So you could argue this mode is the same as isolated data control scope, and by implication, separate connections will be taken out by the caller/called BTF. Is this correct?
    Doesn't this in turn have implications about database read consistency? If we have one BTF participating in a transaction with the database, reading then writing data, and a separate BTF with the <No Controller Transaction> option set, it's possible it wont see the data of the first BTF unless committed before the No Controller Transaction BTF is called and queries it's own dataset correct?
    An alternative question which takes a different point of view, is why would you ever want this option, don't the other options cover all the scenarios you could possibly want to use a BTF?
    Finally as a separate question based around the same option, presumably an attempt to commit/rollback the Data Control Frame of the associated No Controller Transaction BTF will fail. However what happens if the said BTF attempts to call the Data Control's (not the Data Control Frame's) commit & rollback options? Presumably this will succeed?
    Your thoughts and assistance appreciated.
    Regards,
    CM.

    For other readers this reply is a continuation of this thread and another thread: Re: Clarification?: Frank & Lynn's book - task flow "shared" data control scope
    Hi Frank
    Thanks for your reply. Okay I get the idea that were setting the ADFc options here, that can be overridden by the implementation of data control, and in my specific case that's the ADF BC AM implementation. I've always known that, but the issue became complicated because it didn't make sense what "No Controller Transaction" actually did and when you should use it, and in turn data control frames and their implementation aren't well documented.
    I think a key point from your summation is that "No Controller Transaction" in context of ADF BC, with either data control scope option selected, is effectively (as far as we can tell) already covered by the other options. So if our understanding is correct, the recommendation for ADF BC programmers is I think, don't use this option as future programmers/maintainers wont understand the subtlety.
    However as you say for users of other data controls, such as those using web services, then it makes sense and possibly should be the only option?
    Also regarding your code harvest pg 14 entry on task flow transactions: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/march2011-otn-harvest-351896.pdf
    ....and the following quote in context of setting the transaction option to Begin New Transaction:
    >
    When a bounded task flow creates a new transaction, does it also mean it creates a new database connection? No.
    >
    ....I think you need to be a little more careful in this answer, as again it depends on the underlying data control implementation as you point out in this thread. In considering ADF BC, this is correct if you assume only one root AM. However if the BTFs have separate root AMs, this should result in 2 connections and transactions..... well at least I assume it does, though I wonder what will happen if both AMs share the same JNDI data source.... is the framework smart enough to join the connections/transactions in this case?
    Also in one of your other code harvests (apologies I can't find which one at the moment) you point out sharing data control scopes is only possible if the BTF data controls have the same name. In context of an ADF BC application, with only one root AM used by multiple BTFs, this of course would be the case. Yet, the obvious implication to your summary of transaction outcomes in this thread, if the developers for whatever reason change the DC name across DataBindings.cpx files sourced from ADF Libraries containing the BTFs, then no, it wont.
    Overall the number of variables in this gets really complicated, creating multiple dimensions to the matrix.
    Going to your last point, how can the documentation be improved? I think as you say the documentation is right in context of the options for ADFc, but, as the same documentation is included in the Fusion Dev Guide which assumes ADF BC is being used, then it isn't clear enough and can be misleading. It would seem to me, that depending on the underlying data control technology used, then there needs to be documentation that talks about the effect of ADFc task flow behavior options in the context of each technology. And God knows how you describe a scenario where BTFs use DCs that span technologies.
    From context of ADF BC, one thing that I've found hard in analyzing all of this is there doesn't seem to be an easy way from the middletier to check how many connections are being taken out from a data source. The FMW Control unfortunately when sampling db connections taken out from a JNDI data source pool, doesn't sample quickly enough to see how many were consumed. Are you aware of some easy method to check the number of the db connections opened/closed?
    Finally in considering an Unbounded Task Flow as separate to BTFs, do you have any conclusions about how it participates in the transactions? From what I can determine the UTF lies in it's own data control frame, and is effectively isolated from the BTF transactions, unless, the BTF calls commit/rollback at the ADF BC data control level (as separate to commit/rollback at the data control frame level), and the data control is used both by the UTF and BTF.
    As always thanks for your time and assistance.

  • What are the attributes available on Task Status Notification?

    One of OIM email templates is Task Status Email Notification. I am trying to notify the user (Notification tab) using this template but it didn't work. Even when I set the Object Name and Process Name values for an email definition, it does not work.
    How have you implemented task status notification in your workflows? I think if this template exists in OIM, by default, so it is posible to have the information below during notifications.
    I think I'll have to call Oracle's Support.

    a) Create an entity adapter that is assigned to the post-update of the Specific Task Info data object.
    b) Select the task information searching by SCH_KEY, for example (I have to do more tests)
    SELECT

    c) Load the e-mail definition template and replaces the fields
    d) Sends the e-mail
    With that I solved another problem: I have to send an e-mail always the assignee adds a note to the task.

  • Custom Field in the Administrative Time/personal task of the timesheet

    Dear All,
    I want to add the custom field in the administrative time/personal task of the timesheet. How can i do that??
    Snapshot is attached for furthur reference.
    REGARDS DANISH DANIE

    You can not create custom field for Personal task or administrative task (OOB).
    Project server allows us to create Project, Task, Resource, level task.
    You can only Specify Line of classification and New Administrative Time category.
    Choose that while creating Personal task or administrative task.
    But if you really want to customize the from then please go thorugh thread which is talking about the same

    Cab you provide ur inputs then it would be great help to me
    Thanks
    Sunil

    There are Subject, From, Send Date, Attachment .... columns.
    Do you want to hide Attachment column?
    Please refer wiki link :
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/bpx/uwl%252bfaq
    How can I have the attachments options be hidden? Our users do not want to add attachments.
    In the UWL iview properties update the proprety "List of preview sections to hide (SUBJECT, ATTRIBUTES, DESCRIPTION, ATTACHMENTS, NOTES, USERDECISION, and/or ACTIONS)." Enter ATTACHMENTS as a value.

  • Access permission to the Project server workflow tasks in project server 2013.

    Hi All,
    I am creating an OOB Project server workflow, where it contains few phases and each phases have some stages, there are few approval levels of the workflow. 
    Scenario - 1st stage - when project is submitted, a task is assigned to resource, when the resource click on the task link provided in mail, it redirects to the project server workflow task list.
    1) When users view the task list, for all user the delete Item and approve button is enabled even we have given permission as edit,view permission in sharepoint group for that user.
    2) Task list should be viewable by specific user but in my case even after giving the permission it can be apporved by any one who is not authorised also.
    3)  then i tried below things
    1. deleted the user in pwa
    2. deleted the user in sharepoint site.
    even after doing the above, the user able to do all activity in the stie content page, have access to the sharepoint portal. how this is possible?
    When checked with not existing user permission there are few defalut permission set for that user after AD sync. because of this he as access, even if he is not in pwa or in sharepoint site. how to retrict this?
    Can anyone faced the same issue?
    How to fix this permission issue?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Treb Gatte,
    I ma creating Data Connection from SSRS Report, and then creating Data Set for "Project
    Server Workflow Tasks".
    And then when I pull data from the database, it is returning empty. For any other sharepoint list this
    is working absolutely fine. I am facing issue only wrt "Project Server Workflow Tasks" list.
    Thanks,

  • Swf, swc and the mxmlc, compc ant tasks

    I'm a bit confused on the end result of the mxmlc / compc ant
    tasks, or maybe the difference between swf and swc files. I have a
    library of 60 or so AS3 files used for
    serialization/deserialization of my Java backend (using GDS for
    serialization of data between java serverside and my flex front
    end). I first use the compc ant task on these AS3 files to create a
    swc file. This swc is 453316 bytes. With this flash library, I use
    the mxmlc ant task on my mxml file, which produces a 201,492-byte
    swf file.
    I have a couple questions related to the procedure above.
    Shouldn't the swf file include the swc file, and hence be bigger
    than the swc? I'm just wondering if I deploy the swf file, will it
    have all it needs in the swc file to perform the functions
    correctly?
    My second question relates to setting the
    keep-generated-actionscript="true" in the mxmlc task. When
    doing this, I see all the AS3 code generated. However, it does not
    include 55 of the 60 AS3 classes compiled in the swc. It only
    generated AS3 code for those AS3 classes explicitly declared in the
    mxml code (via import and actual declaration). Am I doing something
    wrong here or is this the way flex does its thing?
    The reason why I'm concerned about this is that I'm getting a
    "ArgumentError: Error #2004: One of the parameters is
    invalid" issue am I'm think its happening in the AS3 code (not
    the Java server side) and I don't know how to debug this.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advanced!
