Dataguard Interview questions and most frequeently asked DG issues

Hi Gurus,
I am new to this forum and happy to be a part of it.
Can someone help me in posting " Dataguard Interview questions and most frequeently asked DG issues" as i am preparing for the interviews.
And also share the enhancements to DG in 11g.
Thanks in advance.

I'm not impressed by any of the questions at any of the linked sites provided so here are the one's I would expect someone to be able to answer:
1. What is the difference between Physical and Logical Data Guard in terms of how they work and how they are used in the enterprise?
2. What is the difference between vanilla Data Guard and Active and Snapshot?
3. How do you enable the Data Guard Broker process and why and when would you want to?
4. Who is Larry Carpenter and why should you care?
5. What parameters in using orapwd are critical for success?
6. What would you recommend as a value for SEND_BUF_SIZE and why?
7. Given a primary production database, and a full RMAN backup that takes 1 hour to fully restore ... how long would it take you to implement Physical Data Guard from the time you started working?
If the answer to question 7 is greater than 2 hours ... my assumption would be that you probably had never done it before and it wouldn't matter that you got the first six questions correct.

Custom ESS/MSS iview question

Hi all,
The requirement is to create a custom ESS/MSS iview under one of the worksets in portal. For example I am creating a custom Beneifts iview under the Benefits workset.
I have to get the user personnel number to get the corresponding data in the WD application that i am creating. Where do i get this value from?
My assumption: It is stored as a global variable in a different WD component and i have to reuse the component in my new application to get the corresponding variable
I have tried my best to make the question clear. let me know if this needs to be more clear.
Thanks in advance,
Reddy

Hi Reddy,
There might be some portal events raised when a employee is selected. You should subscribe this event in your custom component and work on.
I do not know if the following information useful for you.
SAP note -- https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1112733 -- with Portal Eventing code to subscribe:
subscribe_to_event("urn:com.sap.mss.employeesearch",
EVENT = "selection_changed".

Label Modifications in ESS/MSS DCs -- question about *.xlf files

Hello,
I have seen this question in other places and all the answers did not quite make sense and were sometimes conflicting.
We have been trying to modify some text labels in an ESS/MSS web dynpro DC. We make the changes in the View properties, save metadata, reload, rebuild, and deploy. The changes are showing in design time, but not runtime. I have seen some postings from people saying to change the *.xlf file, but then I have also seen other documentation from SAP help saying not to change the *.xlf files (b/c they are generated at build time). Also, the generic *.xlf file appears to be changed at build time, but the language specific one (in our case en) is not, which I would guess is why the runtime changes are not showing up. What is the correct solution and process to make these changes appear? Is there an additional step for regenerating a language specific *.xlf?
I also know that you can change these labels via content admin in EP7, but we want to change them at design time.
Thanks in advance.

You can't 'achieve' that. Rows in a table are like balls in a basket: there is NO first row.
Ask yourself how you would SORT that data to make your query return the data in the order that you show. There is no way to do that. The row you show as 'Null Neil' might get queried as any of the rows.

J2ME Interview Questions-Please share your ideas.It's Useful for everyone.

Hi friends,
Recently, I attended J2ME interview. I could answer the basic questions but for few questions, I was doubtful. I�ve listed the few tough questions. Please share your ideas for
these questions. Hope it will be useful for everyone.

Hi,
1) With 11g recently becoming available, should we upgrade to 11g or upgrade to 10g ?You should upgrade to 10g, and apply the latest 10g patches.
2) There is a white paper on Metaline (313418.1) that discusses using 10g with EBS. Is there anything similar for 11g ?11g is not available with the EBS. It has a different architecture and is not supported with EBS.
3) Can anyone share with me how long the actual upgrade process takes (please specify if your timings are 10g or 11g) ? To upgrade you need to do a new install of Discoverer 10g and upgrade the EUL. Make sure you have a good backup of the EUL before starting. The Discoverer install is straightforward and the EUL upgrade only takes a minute. BUT although all the workbooks are upgraded they are changed in ways that you might not have expected. Parameters become optional, occasionally worksheets disappear, titles get corrupted, the SQL generated can different, may perform more slowly and may occasionally return different results. It is sorting out these issues and regression testing the workbooks that take the time.

GAP ANALYSIS URGENT INTERVIEW QUESTIONS PLEASE .

Hi Everybody ,
Tell me more about GAP analysis and business requirements ? why it is required ? why it is need and some really scenario .
thanks - Sameer .

Here is Some useful info given earlier on SDN Forum on GAP Analysis:
Simply Gap Is Nothing But,
Client Requirement Doesnt Meet With The SAP Application,
The Distance Between Actual And Existing/Supporting,
E.g.: On Purchase Of Material-X, The Other Material Will Get 50% Discount, Which Sap Doesnt Support,
Commission Paid To The Agent Also , Not Supported In SAP,
To Fill This Gap, We Use The Enhancements,
These Enhancements Divided Into Exits,
Like
User exits,
Field Exits
Screen Exits &
Menu Exits.
These Enhancements Used To Update The Standard Program In Its Respective Business Transactions, Used As A Gateway To Meet The Client Requirements.
Refer below
In n simple terms: Gap means small cracks. In SAP world or in Information Technology world, gap analysis is the study of the differences between two different information systems or applications( ex; existing system or legacy system with Client and new is SAP), often for the purpose of determining how to get from one state to a new state. A gap is sometimes spoken of as "the space between where we are and where we want to be."
Gap Analysis is undertaken as a means of bridging that space. Actual Gap Analysis is time consuming and it plays vital role in Business BlueprintAS IS Process stage.
A through Gap Analysis will identify the gaps between how the business operates and its needs against what the package can can't do. For each gap there will be one of three outcomes, which must be recorded and auctioned,
1. GAP must be closed and customized software can be developed
2. GAP must be closed but software cannot be written therefore a workaround is required
3. GAP does not need to be closed.
A point worth mentioning here is that at time people confuse between user-exits and Gap Analysis. User exits are standard gate ways provided by SAP to exit the standard code and we can write our own code with the help of ABAP workbench, its not new functionality which we are trying to build in sap but its slight enhancement within the same code.
Gap analysis is start point of Realization and once business Blueprint is finished we have to find the realization of sap system for client requirement and there will be certain gaps when compared to system fit. Those gaps can be closed either by re-engineering of business process to fit with SAP or we have to use USER exits in case of small deviations or complete enhancements with the help of ABAP to fit with the SAP system.
The Gaps can differ from company to company. Most commonly, however, missing functionality is industry-specific.
Examples:
1. MGM Studios and Lycos sometime back worked with SAP to develop its new intellectual property management and media advertising management functionality, respectively.
2. A leading Oral care product company wanted the promotion of free-goods where they wanted 'Buy one get 2 different products free'.

What is ticket? Process flow ticket
Handling tickets is called Issue Tracking system. The errors or bugs forwarded by the end user to the support team are prioritized under three seviority High, Medium and Low. Each and every seviority as got its time limits before that we have to fix the error.
The main job of the supporting consultant is to provide assistance on line to the customer or the organisation where SAP is already implemented for which the person should be very strong in the subject and the process which are implemented in SAP at the client side to understand,to analyse,to actuate and to give the right solution in right time.This is the job of the support consultant.
The issues or the tickets(problems) which are arised is taken care of on priority basis by the support team consultants.
The work process in support projects are given below for your reference.
1. The customer or the end user logs a call through any tool or by mail (RADIX).
2. Each one of the support team is a part of support group.
3. Whenever a customer logs a call he /she has to mention to which work group (by name).
4. Once the calls came to the work group the support consultant or the team need to send an IR (Initial Response) to the user depending upon the priority of the calls. (Top,High,Med,Low,None)
5. Then the error is fixed, debugged by the support consultant or the team. Then after testing properly by generating TR(Transport Request through the basis admin)
6. Then it is informed to the end user/customer/super user about the changes which have moved to the production server by CTS process.
These are the process. In summary, what I understand is that if any configuration or customization is required to solve the issue, then the consultant have to work on DEV Client, then the end user will test it in the QA client and after approval the BASIS consultant has to transport it to the PRODUCTION client.
An example:
Tickets in SD can be considered as the problems which the end user or the employee in the company face while working on R/3. Tickets usually occur during the implementation or after theimplementation of the project. There can be numerous problem which can occur in the production support and a person who is working in the support has to resolve those tickets in the limited duration, every ticket has the particular deadline alert so your responsibility is to finish it before that deadline.
To begin with , we should give "TICKET" to you for not knowing it.
Here is an eg of a ticket raise:
End user is not able to
1. Create Sales order for a customer from a New plant , since shipping point determination is not happened . ( Without Shipping point the document becomes INCOMPLETE and he will not be able to proceed further like DELIVERY, BILLING).
He raises a ticket and the priority is set in one of the below:
1. Low 2. Medium 3. High.
Now you need to solve this ticket. You would analyze the problem and identify that the SP configuration has to be done for the new plant.
You would request a transport for DEV CLIENT to BASIS. You do the change and Request one more Transport to BASIS for QA client. The End user will test the same by creating a sales order for the new plant and approve it.
Finally, you request a transport to move the changes to PRODUCTION. Once the change is deployed in production the TICKET is closed. What I have given is a small example. You would get some real issues with severity HIGH in your day-day support.
Regards.

V9 Oracle was last version to include RBO & V9 has been obsoleted this whole Century.So, I should resign from my employer of 17 years because we still have a couple of applications that use RBO, I can just hear the exit interview now :-)
In case you are wondering, one of the applications that uses RBO is on 10.2.0.3, and the other is 9.2.0.8

The number of countries you implement definitely impacts ESS fairly heavily. Certain ESS applications are country specific, such as the personal data editing, so the more countries you have, the more involved your ESS implementation will be. A simple example I just encountered at our client is for benefits enrollment in the US you can choose your smoker status (smoker, non-smoker). The default canada screen from SAP did not have the same field available, although it was needed for the customers benefit election process so they had to customize the canada screen. each process for each country would have to validated to your needs.
Than for MSS - everything is fairly global, one application from SAP. However, the proceses on your side may not be truly global.
Say for intance you go-live with Time approval for vacation and sick days. you may only have that live for US managers, and not for other countries. Than you need to decide if you will explicity hide the time application from non-us managers. and can you even hide, because what if you have non-us managers that may have US employees and non-us employees?
If you need to "separate" MSS functionality, based on what is live for certain countries, it will be custom development. This same questioning should be applied to each MSS process you consider going live with.
e-recuriting
HR Processes submissions and approvals (hires, pay change, org change, etc)
perf management
comp management
talent management
etc...
