Explain me about the Host,Node,Cluster,Binary volume in HANA terminalogy ?

Hi Team ,
I am just refering through some documents related to SAP HANA Architecture and Landscape and came through the above mentioned jargon , will u please clearly explain me about these and how they are related .
Thanks
Dinu Pendyala

Hello Dinesh,
In SAP HANA Architecture there is no mention of any host, node, cluster, binary volume.
These all are the common term, which is used in computer world.
The same meaning is applicable everywhere.

Oracle RAC performance Suddenly terminates on one of the two node cluster

I have a strange problem that happens frequently from time to time when My M400 Machine which is a part of two node RAC cluster goes down suddenly
I tried so many times to understand what's the cause behind that but when I read the logs there are so many messages related to the Oracle RAC which I don't have any experience or knowledge about so I hope I can find here any one who can explain to me these log messages knowing that they are always the same

About the hosts file (syntax/usage question)

Hi,
I am trying to block a handful of different websites that I do not want my daughter to use right now. I would like to use the hosts file to do this. Although I have basic familiarity with the hosts file and editing it, I am not completely certain as to how it works and how DNS works. If I want to, for example, block "yahoo.com" and all of its subdomains, would the following be an acceptable/valid entry?
127.0.0.1 *.yahoo.com
By not listing the subdomains of "yahoo.com", would that make it any liklier for those webpages to get through? If I were to also list out all of the "yahoo.com" subdomains that I have knowledge of along with the previous entry, would that cause any problems?
And the second part of my question is: Is the hosts file ever not top priority in lookup (on OS X 10.6.8, if it matters); and if so, is there a good way to make it always first?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you,
Michael

Use parental controls, maybe Dnsmasq, or a nanny-capable firewall-gateway-router box that's been configured on the edge of your network.
The /etc/hosts file also has specific sequence to get it reloaded; that file is read once and subsequenty cached. IIRC, you need to either /sudo dscacheutil -flushcache/ or /sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder/ the DNS resolver.
If your child is technically inclined, or knows how to do basic internet research, or has discussions with the more nerd-ish among her peers, your child can learn how to bypass /etc/hosts and Dnsmasq using her own DNS translations, or with her own DNS services. That possibility would point toward either parental controls (easy), or the firewall-gateway-router box (added cost, but can block some or all systems on your local network).
Here's how easy it is to bypass the /etc/hosts block; launch Terminal.app and issue the equivalent of:
dig +short @8.8.8.8 host.example.com
for the host.example.com host that you're (she's) interested in. (There are other commands that can be used; more than just dig can be used here, and there are web sites that can perform this translation for you.) Then connect to the IP address that this command emits. Your /etc/hosts block will not prevent this, and will not block this.
If your daughter is somewhat more technically savvy, a VPN will bypass the /etc/hosts blocks. She'll need access to a VPN server, and those are available from various free and very low-cost sources...

Hyper V hosts with Cluster Shared Volume do not provide Shared VHDX ability

Hi there, i've configured a pair of Hyper V hosts (UCS B230 M2) with SAN-Boot and access to a Shared Fiber Channel LUN.
No matter what I try, when I add a SCSI Adapter and one VHDX virtual disk to a VM, the option for "Advanced" never shows up therefore I can not share the VHDX file between another VM, which prevents any VM based clustering from working (IE: Clustered
SQL server)
Here are the settings I have configured:
The LUN has been formatted with NTFS
The Hyper V hosts have been configured as a Windows Cluster with an IP address and the Fiber Channel LUN configured as a Cluster Shared Volume
I follows the guides below
Create a CSV
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn265980.aspx
Create a shared VHDX
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn282283.aspx
Further details:
Two HyperV server core hosts built
Both joined to AD
Both joined to a Windows failover cluster
One 2TB Fibre Channel LUN presented from an EMC VNX array to both hosts
LUN formatted as NTFS
LUN created as a Cluster Shared Volume
Cluster Shared Volume present on both HyperV hosts
VM created within the Cluster Shared Volume
VM Booted up and Windows 2012 has been installed
VM gracefully shut down
Through the HyperV Manager, going in to VM settings,create a SCSI adapter, create a new VHDX file inside the CSV, the “Advanced” option for the VHDX is not present, therefore the option to make the VHDX file shared is not available
I have followed all steps in the Microsft Technet pages to create a CSV and a VM with Shared VHDX
I’ve cleared all settings and restarted multiple times, but this option is not present

Hi Sir,
>>No matter what I try, when I add a SCSI Adapter and one VHDX virtual disk to a VM, the option for "Advanced" never shows up therefore I can not share the VHDX file between another VM
>>Yes we are using Hyper-V Server 2012 R2
As we know Hyper-v server 2012R2 is a free version without GUI , I'm afraid you are not using Win 8.1 or other windows server 2012R2 to manage that free version hyper-v server .
Shared vhdx is a new feature came with 2012R2 , if use previous windows to manage 2012R2 you will not see "advanced" option (The blue circle belongs 2012 , the red circle belongs to 2012R2 ):

How to refresh changes on the host/node

Hi,
I checked the documentation and didn't find the information which would help me answer the following question:
Say I have couple of databases on a four node RAC and I have disabled a four instance RAC database to two instance RAC database. But for some reason, Grid still thinks that I should have four databases (it says 2 of 4 up). How do I refresh the changes made on the servers with that of the OMS/Grid so that it reflects and correct/actual situation.
Similarly, say I have drop or added a database - most of the times GRID doesn't know about these changes. How do I make sure that the GRID reflects the correct sitution/status.
I am sure there would be a way to refresh everything from a host, but not able to find one....Any help or pointers to help would be appreciated.
Thanks

You need to stop the agents on that node and delete the target from the UI

Hi experts can u explain me about the free goods in b1

hello friends
i have a critical problem in my project that , there are free goods for customers in my clients co. if the customer order 10 items ,there is one item free....
so how can i configure this in business one please
explain me in details
if there are any documents please send me across to my mail
[email protected]
regards
naidu and madhu

Hi Samatham
If you mean if you buy 10 you will get 1 free ......basically what you are saying is that the customer pays for 9 items and picks up 10 items.
There are 2 ways of achieving this.
First method:
1. In a sales order put 9 items in the first row and the system calculates the price for the whole 9 items
2. In the second line put one more item and put the price as 0.
In effect the 10th item will become free.
Second method:
1. Go to Hierarchies and Expansions and select the Price list in which you want the scheme to run
2. Select the row and double click it. The validity period window will open.
3. Again double click it and the Quantity wise discount window will open.
4. Now let us consider an example in which you have to give 1 iem free if the customer purchases 1 i.e basically buy 1 get 1 free. Then for this in the Quantity based discount window mention the Quantity to be 2 and the discount to be 50 % whtt will in effect happen is that you are giving away 2 pieces for the price of one . Similarly for 3 pieces it will be 33.33 % discountand for 4 pieces it will 25 % discount . Similarly for 10 Pcs I believe it will be 10 % Discount.

Please can somebody, explain me about the swfObject

Really, i am very new in this theme, i really don't understand why to embed swf flash as3 in html when i have seen videos where we can upload the swfs in a domain, please, i hope don't say something wrong.
Thanks in advance
Regards.
Joselyn

swfobject is just an industry standard way of embedding a Flash file into a web page because it handles all the browser differences internally and has a few other bonuses as well. Adobe even uses this in their own html-template file so they fully support this method.
Can you do it without swfobject? Yes... but swfobject is just the recommended way.

After host crash - cluster no longer working correctly in SCVMM 2012

Hi
one of our nodes in our cluster crashed. It came back. All the VMs on this host were running on other hosts so failover worked fine BUT for 2 VMs. One of those 2 VMs is - according to VMM - running on the crashed host. The other VM is - according to VMM
- running on another host node which did not fail.
I have a lot of job errors saying that VMM library object virtuals disk is missing of those two VMs. So I looked into the FailoverManager. There I was able to see that the VMs are running on totaly different host nodes then what VMM tells me. In addition
those VMs work just fine. I connected to both of them over Hpyer-V and they are just fine and the application also work without a problem. Please not those VMs are not shown twice or missing in VMM.
Live Migration to the Host node that crashed is no longer possible. But when looking into the status on VMM - it tells me that everything is fine. From Hpyer-V Manager I am able to do live migration to this host. But no longer from VMM console.
I rebooted the host node with no change. I refreshed the host nodes (all) in FailoverManager and in SCVMM, I refreshed the cluster... nothing. So I wanted to remove the cluster from SCVMM and re-add it. Doesn't work... It started with the first host and
after that my cluster was somewhat broken (I thought that removing cluster - NOT "uncluster" - wouldn't have an effect on the cluster itself - well I was wrong). Anyway I repaired the cluster it is back into VMM but I still have the issues with the VMs. There
are only warning on the VMM server that the library object (vhd) is missing but on the cluster nodes itself there are no errors.
Any ideas what I could do. I have no clue what to do about the VM which is supposed to be on this host but in FailoverManager it is on a totally different server. Any ideas?

Hi,
version is SCVMM 2012 RC - yes there were errors with live migration but unfortunately I receive so many warning messages now (about missing library objects for vhd files) that the errors from tuesday are already gone. I guess they might be in database ...
The log files you asked for are from 2011 when the cluster was created - no entries after that.
No the cluster is not in Maintenance or Pause mode - i checked that. Remove and re-join the cluster with VMM 2012 RC was already tried. As described above: that failed - the first cluster node was removed and after that the job failed in VMM. I found the
error message quite ironic because it said that "cluster node 1" is no longer reachable. Nooo really... it just had been removed a second before the "remove cluster" job failed. Unfortunately this job played havoc with my cluster. It took me 4 hours to bring
it back online (mostly VMs).
The good thing is, my cluster is somewhat working again - meaning after I repaired it and was able to re-add the missing cluster node back into VMM live migration now works both from Hyper-V and from SCVMM. The VERY bad part is that now several more VMs
are - according to VMM - runing on "cluster node 1" while the Failover Manager says they are runing on "cluster node 2 or 3...". In addition I get many more warning messages. This error is the one I am trying to eleminate. As said I haven't found anything
which helped me narrow done a solution. Everything I tried so far didn't have any response or - like the cluster - it made things quite bad (temporary). I checked the Event logs on the cluster nodes and VMM itself. Currently there are no error messages there.
Warning messages in VMM:
Warning (23234) VM Refresher encountered an error while creating or updating <vm name> with id XXXXX. VMM cannot find VirutalHardDisk object XXX. Ensure the library object is valid, and then try the operation again.
Warning (10647) The virtual network adapter for the virtual machine <vm name> is connected to a virtual network switch <swtich name> that is not valid.
Does anyone know how to change the time interval of the "VM Refresher"? I get those warning messages for each VM every 2 min. As there are several VMs affected by now I have several thousend messages each day...

Creation of diskset in Two node cluster

Hi All ,
I have created one diskset in solaris 9 using SVM in two node cluster.
After diskset creation, I mounted the diskset in a primary node in the mount point /test. But, the disk set is mounting on both the nodes.
I created this diskset for failover purposes, if one node goes down the other node will take care.
My idea is to create a failover resource (diskset resources) in the two node cluster.
Below are steps used for creating the disk set.
root@host2# /usr/cluster/bin/scdidadm -L d8
8        host1:/dev/rdsk/c1t9d0   /dev/did/rdsk/d8
8        host2:/dev/rdsk/c1t9d0   /dev/did/rdsk/d8
metaset -s diskset -a -h host2 host1
metaset -s diskset -a -m host2 host1
metaset -s diskset -a /dev/did/rdsk/d8
metainit -s diskset d40 1 1 /dev/did/dsk/d8s0
newfs /dev/md/diskset/rdsk/d40
mount /dev/md/diskset/dsk/d40 /test
root@host2# metaset -s diskset
Set name = diskset, Set number = 1
Host                Owner
host2                  Yes
host1
Mediator Host(s)    Aliases
host2
host1
Driv Dbase
d8   YesPlease let me know how to mount the disk set in one node.
If i am wrong, please correct me.
Regards,
R. Rajesh Kannan.

The file system will only mount on both (all) nodes if you mount it globally, i.e with the global flag or if there is an entry in /etc/vfstab that has a global option.
Given your output below, I would guess you have a global mount for /test defined in /etc/vfstab.

Tim

Help, how do i find out the host server for a website i have inherited

hi i inherited responcibilty for a website, simply because
there was noone else avalable. i have dreamweaver cs3, but only
about 2 weeks worth of knowledge and experience. I was given info
ie. ftp address and username etc, so have been able to download the
website to my home computer, and have been making updates, now
however i need to find out more about setting up a test server so i
can use dynamic pages, specifically for collecting form
information, collecting donations and selling art work. i will need
some information from the host server to start with, but am unsure
as how to identify and contact them, can anyone help me please. I
am sure it is rudimentary, but the information is essential.
also as a side note, could anyone tell me how to find out
where the websites domain name is regestered ( other than
contacting the original designer, as that seem quite impossible)
because i get the feeling that if all else fails i may be able to
move the website to another host ( not that i now how yet, or even
how to select or find a host) please let me know if any of my
assumptions are wrong.
Thanking you in advance
J
volunteer.

Hi,
To find out about the host, go to register.com and look up
the domain name.
When it gives you results, it'll say that the name is already
taken, but it
will let you do a 'whois' on it.
Those results can give you some info such as the server DNS.
That may let
you figure out the host.
Sometimes the technical contact in the whois, is the host as
well.

Doubt about the settlement rule of the Production ORder

The only default distribution rule allowed for a PP order is PP1 or PP2. We would need to change that to allow settlement to multiple receivers as a default. If that is the case, we may want to look into a user exit to update the settlement rule during production order creation instead so that the G/L account is correct from the beginning.
Currently when we create the production order, the settlement rule will default the below, I am not sure if a user exit is able to maintain the Source as 200 (Materials)?
If yes, we can then add the second rule for Source 100 (Labor and Mfg) via the user exit as well.
In this case, SAP will not prompt us error of settlement with 200%, as they are from difference Sources.
now anybody can explain me about the User EXit we have to correct this

any help on this.. please its very urgent
thanks in advance

Can any one explain me about Field symbols in Genral Reports?

Can any one explain me about Field symbols in Genral Reports?
If possible, plz explain me with the code to explain me about the field symbols.
Regards,
Krishna Chaitanya

Syntax
FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs> { typing | STRUCTURE struc DEFAULT dobj }.
Extras:
1. ... typing
2. ... STRUCTURE struc DEFAULT dobj
Effect
The FIELD-SYMBOLS statement declares a field symbol <fs>. The naming conventions apply to the name fs. The angle brackets of the field symbols indicate the difference to data objects and are obligatory. You can declare field symbols in any procedure and in the global declaration section of an ABAP program, but not in the declaration section of a class or an interface. You can use a field symbol in any operand position in which it is visible and which match the typing defined using typing.
After its declaration, a field symbol is initial - that is, it does not reference a memory area. You have to assign a memory area to it (normally using the ASSIGN statement) before you can use it as an operand. Otherwise an exception will be triggered.
Addition 1
... typing
Effect
You can use the addition typing to type the field symbol. The syntax of typing is described under Syntax of Typing. The typing specifies which memory areas can be assigned to the field symbol (see Checking the Typing) and in which operand positions it can be used.
Note
You can omit the addition typing outside of methods. In this case, the field symbol has the complete generic type any and is implicitly assigned the predefined constant space during the declaration.
Addition 2
... STRUCTURE struc DEFAULT dobj
Effect
If you specify the addition STRUCTURE instead of typing for a field symbol, and struc is a local program structure (a data object, not a data type) or a flat structure from the ABAP Dictionary, this structure is cast for the field symbol <fs>. You have to specify a data object dobj that is initially assigned to the field symbol.
The field symbol copies the technical attributes of structure struc as if it were completely typed. When you assign a data object using the addition DEFAULT, or later using ASSIGN, its complete data type is not checked in non- Unicode programs. Instead, the system merely checks whether it has at least the length of the structure and its alignment.
In Unicode programs, we differentiate between structured and elementary data objects. For a structured data object dobj, its Unicode fragment view has to match the one of struc. In the case of an elementary data object, the object must be character-type and flat, and struc must be purely character-type. The same applies to assignments of data objects to field symbols typed using STRUCTURE when using the ASSIGN statement.
Note
Field symbols declared using the addition STRUCTURE are a mixture of typed field symbols and a utility for casting structured data types. You should use the additions TYPE or LIKE for the FIELD-SYMBOLS statement to type field symbols, while the addition CASTING of the ASSIGN statement is used for casting.
Example
The first example shows the obsolete usage of the addition STRUCTURE.
DATA wa1 TYPE c LENGTH 512.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <scarr1> STRUCTURE scarr DEFAULT wa1.
<scarr1>-carrid = '...'.
The second example shows the replacement of STRUCTURE with the additions TYPE and CASTING.
DATA wa2 TYPE c LENGTH 512.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <scarr2> TYPE scarr.
ASSIGN wa2 TO <scarr2> CASTING.
<scarr2>-carrid = '...'.
Also,
Field Symbols
Field symbols are placeholders or symbolic names for other fields. They do not physically reserve space for a field, but point to its contents. A field symbol cam point to any data object. The data object to which a field symbol points is assigned to it after it has been declared in the program.
Whenever you address a field symbol in a program, you are addressing the field that is assigned to the field symbol. After successful assignment, there is no difference in ABAP whether you reference the field symbol or the field itself. You must assign a field to each field symbol before you can address the latter in programs.
Field symbols are similar to dereferenced pointers in C (that is, pointers to which the content operator * is applied). However, the only real equivalent of pointers in ABAP, that is, variables that contain a memory address (reference) and that can be used without the contents operator, are reference variables in ABAP Objects.
All operations programmed with field symbols are applied to the field assigned to it. For example, a MOVE statement between two field symbols moves the contents of the field assigned to the first field symbol to the field assigned to the second field symbol. The field symbols themselves point to the same fields after the MOVE statement as they did before.
You can create field symbols either without or with type specifications. If you do not specify a type, the field symbol inherits all of the technical attributes of the field assigned to it. If you do specify a type, the system checks the compatibility of the field symbol and the field you are assigning to it during the ASSIGN statement.
Field symbols provide greater flexibility when you address data objects:
If you want to process sections of fields, you can specify the offset and length of the field dynamically.
You can assign one field symbol to another, which allows you to address parts of fields.
Assignments to field symbols may extend beyond field boundaries. This allows you to address regular sequences of fields in memory efficiently.
You can also force a field symbol to take different technical attributes from those of the field assigned to it.
The flexibility of field symbols provides elegant solutions to certain problems. On the other hand, it does mean that errors can easily occur. Since fields are not assigned to field symbols until runtime, the effectiveness of syntax and security checks is very limited for operations involving field symbols. This can lead to runtime errors or incorrect data assignments.
While runtime errors indicate an obvious problem, incorrect data assignments are dangerous because they can be very difficult to detect. For this reason, you should only use field symbols if you cannot achieve the same result using other ABAP statements.
For example, you may want to process part of a string where the offset and length depend on the contents of the field. You could use field symbols in this case. However, since the MOVE statement also supports variable offset and length specifications, you should use it instead. The MOVE statement (with your own auxiliary variables if required) is much safer than using field symbols, since it cannot address memory beyond the boundary of a field. However, field symbols may improve performance in some cases.

FIELD-SYMBOLS
Basic form
FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs>.
Extras:
1. ... TYPE type
2. ... TYPE REF TO cif
3. ... TYPE REF TO DATA
4. ... TYPE LINE OF type
5. ... LIKE s
6. ... LIKE LINE OF s
7. ... TYPE tabkind
8. ... STRUCTURE s DEFAULT wa
The syntax check performed in an ABAP Objects context is stricter than in other ABAP areas. See Cannot Use Untyped Field Symbols ad Cannot Use Field Symbols as Components of Classes.
Effect
This statement declares a symbolic field called <fs>. At runtime, you can assign a concrete field to the field symbol using ASSIGN. All operations performed with the field symbol then directly affect the field assigned to it.
You can only use one of the additions.
Example
Output aircraft type from the table SFLIGHT using a field symbol:
FIELD-SYMBOLS <PT> TYPE ANY.
DATA SFLIGHT_WA TYPE SFLIGHT.
ASSIGN SFLIGHT_WA-PLANETYPE TO <PT>.
WRITE <PT>.
Addition 1
... TYPE type
Addition 2
... TYPE REF TO cif
Addition 3
... TYPE REF TO DATA
Addition 4
... TYPE LINE OF type
Addition 5
... LIKE s
Addition 6
... LIKE LINE OF s
Addition 7
... TYPE tabkind
Effect
You can define the type of the field symbol using additions 2 to 7 (just as you can for FORM parameters (compare Defining the Type of Subroutine Parameters). When you use the ASSIGN statement, the system carries out the same type checks as for USING parameters of FORMs.
This addition is not allowed in an ABAP Objects context. See Cannot Use Obsolete Casting for FIELD SYMBOLS.
In some cases, the syntax rules that apply to Unicode programs are different than those for non-Unicode programs. See Defining Types Using STRUCTURE.
Effect
Assigns any (internal) field string or structure to the field symbol from the ABAP Dictionary (s). All fields of the structure can be addressed by name: <fs>-fieldname. The structured field symbol points initially to the work area wa specified after DEFAULT.
The work area wa must be at least as long as the structure s. If s contains fields of the type I or F, wa should have the structure s or at least begin in that way, since otherwise alignment problems may occur.
Example
Address components of the flight bookings table SBOOK using a field symbol:
DATA SBOOK_WA LIKE SBOOK.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <SB> STRUCTURE SBOOK
DEFAULT SBOOK_WA.
WRITE: <SB>-BOOKID, <SB>-FLDATE.

64 BW 3.1 on a 3 node cluster

Hello,
We currently have a 2 node cluster for our BW/MSSQL server, we are planning to include a 3rd node thus making our BW system a 3 node cluster. We are using MSCS with MSSQL server. I am not sure if we can use the cluster wizard. If anyone has done this, could they share their experience?
Many Thanks in advance

Hello Arun,
Thanks for your quick response. Actually we are planning to include the CI on the 3rd node cluster. We are not planning to install another DI.
We currently have CI setup so it can failover to Node A or Node B, what we want to do is to be able to failover the CI on the 3rd node too Node C.
Has anyone successfuly done that on MSCS?
Regards,
saud

Scripting the start of cluster-caching

Hello,
im a SAP Portal administrator. In the Portal runs a Jive Froumssoftware with tangosol coherence caching feature. In the forumssoftware I can activate the clsuter caching, but after a serverrestart i have to activate it again.
I know this is not an SAP Forum oder Jive Forum but I want to know how i can script the activation of the cluster?
I think there must be a way to make ist via command line. In wich class or jar file i can have a look to start the cluster-caching by scripting? E.g: coherence.jar?
Is there a way like: java -cp tangosol.jar com.tangosol.net.MulticastTest (run Multicasttest) to activate multicast?
thx and sry if i post wrong

I am not knowledgeable about the Jive Forums cluster administration. (I'm pretty sure that these forums run on Jive, but they're managed by our IT organization.)
I would suggest posting the question on the Jive support forums:
