Filters.cfg - enough info to rebuild my filters from scratch?

I have the luxury of 2 BM servers. On the one, I want to completely delete
all the filters and rebuild from scratch - lots of unneeded, old stuff in
there, and I want to simply put in what I _know_ is needed and wait to get
asked for the rest.
To that end, I copied filters.cfg to my home dir and have been looking over
a printed copy. It seems that everything I need is in there - is there
anything else I should preserve before doing this?
I'm probably also going to replace the NIC for the public side, so I thought
I might swap the NIC, put things right in INETCFG, then go about rebuilding
the filters.
TIA.

Thanks, Craig. It turns out (as discussed on a thread of mine in the
nw65 abends forum) that my B57.LAN is pretty old, and it was current
through NW65SP5UPD1, but SP6 has a newer one, so I'm going to try that
and see if it can let me avoid replacing the NIC. But I really want to
tear down and redo the filters, so I will take your suggestion and just
copy SYS:\ETC before messing with anything. At some point in the past,
I tried a newer B57 than the one I'm now using and it was worse, not
better, but I'm trying to be an optomist here. :)
No static NAT currently in use, although we have filters in place to
support it on one or two w/s so that adding the NAT means doing just
that and nothing else. The powers that be have decided that any public
IPs that can be avoided should be avoided, so everyone use the VPN
client or they don't get in, save those of us who remote into a BM
server's public IP. I confess I agree with this to the extent that not
having a windows machine on a public IP makes me rest easier.
Thanks again.

  • Rebuild Library from Scratch without losing what I bought

    How can I rebuild my library from scratch without losing what I have already bought? I recently upgraded my system drive to a 1TB drive and all the drive letters changed. I had moved my library off of the system drive and I do not remember what the drive letter was. I have all the files just want to rebuild and resysnc. I have XP Pro and a lot of files prior to Itunes opening up to all mp3 devices.

    Welcome to AD!
    If you have an older iTunesLibrary.XML file, you can open it using WordPad. It might refresh your memory on what drive letter was being used.

  • I have a Mac G4 with a 10.3.9 OS and I want to update without losing any filters from my Photoshop 7. Should I go to 10,4 or higher?

    I have a Mac G4 with a 10.3.9 OS and I want to update without losing any filters from my Photoshop 7. Should I go to 10.4 or higher?

    Why do you need to update at all?
    In order to upgrade you will have to purchase a retail copy of either Tiger or Leopard neither of which are easy to come by, and they tend to be a bit expensive.  And, there's no assurance that the version of PS you now use will be compatible with a newer version of OS X.

  • Essbase cannot union filters from multiple groups

    Hi All,
    I got a problem to provisioning on Shared Service.
    In some case, I need to grant multiple filters to a Essbase users, say user01.
    However, each user can associated one Essbase filter only.
    For better management, I create multiple groups with different filters and assign the user, user01, into the groups.
    For first two groups are working normally. However, Essbase cannot "union" all filters from multiple groups after the users join the third groups.
    However, I try to combine the three filter into a filter with three rows. It is working!!!
    It is because there are large number of users in external LDAP. It is unmanageable when combining multiple filters into a filters. Is there any way to solve this problem? or is there any better approach to do the security ?
    Thanks in advance!!!
    Regards,
    TKC

    Thanks for your reply.
    I have following structure in Essbase. I try to make it simple to understand.
    Dept (dimension)
    |_C00
    |_CTTL
    |_C01
    |_C02
    Project (dimension)
    |_GEN
    |_P01
    |_P02
    |_P03
    |_PI
    |_A
    |_P01 (shared member)
    |_B
    |_P02 (shared member)
    |_P03 (shared member)
    Group A with Filter F01
    Read - CTTL, IDESCENDENT(A)
    Group B with Filter F02
    Read - C01, P01, P02
    User joins A and B group.
    The end result of user is that
    he can access CTTL of P01 only
    he can access C01 of P01 and P02 only
    he cannot access C02 of any Project dimension
    he cannot access CTTL of P03
    However, I found that when I change to metaread. The result is going wrong.
    he can access C01 of P01, P02 and P03 only.
    It is because I need to block user to view members which he cannot access.
    I need "metaread" function.
    So somebody tell me how to achieve this? Thanks in advance.

  • Filters from BW in HANA Calculation View

    Hi, Gurus!
    We start using HANA modeling and faced with some issues in filtering. Hope someone can help us, maybe anybody faced with same error and give us they expirience.
    Well, we have following model
    On this model we create Virtual Cube in BW. All objects mapped.
    So, when we try to open query for 1 day, or for 1 month, or even for 1 quarter time of execution the same. Of course in simple models (one analytic view on them projection and after aggregation) this situation not occurred.
    We tried to find some information about this case, but all in vain. As we think filter from BEX Query or ABAP cube preview must transfer to all objects in calculation view but in fact, we fully sure about it, block 1 (look at picture above) not limited...
    Maybe this happen because our usage this block (type of join, or maybe characteristics which joined) :
    So any help about how to understand this behaviour of system, or how correctly create CALC View to using all filters from BEX, or how debug in HANA call of CALC view from BEX, will be very useful!
    Thanks in advance!
    Best regard,
    Alex

    I'm not sure I understand your question, but I think you are saying that your execution time is the same for any query, even if you filter heavily.
    This can be the case if you join between two fact tables. Avoid this by using Attribute Views or a Union with Constant Values.

  • How to Export Security Filters from ASO

    Hi everyone,
    I would like to export the security filters from our reporting application which is ASO. Through my research I have struggled to find a good method for doing this. I ran the Display Filter MAXL script to produce an output but the output cannot be manipulated for use.
    Does anyone have a good way extract these filters?
    Please and thank you in advance for any advice you may have!
    John

    You could have a look at the advanced security manager which is a free tool - http://www.appliedolap.com/free-tools/advanced-security-manager
    There is also the option at look at using one of the API's
    I would say LCM but I don't think that extracts it in a format that then can be manipulated.
    Cheers

    Since I upgraded to Elements 13, I have lost all my filters from 3rd party.  How can I install them in version 13 that still are installed in version 11 and 12?

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • Unable to refresh filters from planning desktop(9.2.x)

    Hi
    i am unable to refresh filters from planning desktop.ie when a refresh is performed i get a popup with alist of users for which the filters didnt get updated and also the application goes into locked state.
    I feel this is mainly due to the existence of stale users on planning desktop.Is there any workaround,query or patch to remove the stale users(users not existing in msad) from planning desktop such that the refresh takes palce properly.
    Waiting for a quick reply
    Thanks and regards
    krishnatilak

    Hi. I had this same issue with 9.2. I found that there was a user which was no longer in the AD that was still in planning.
    First thing to check is can you see the users in SS - I suspect not but worth a look. If you can, deprovision them. If you cant (most likely) you will need to use an LDAP browser to clean them out, which is a very messy process.
    Best of luck.

  • If meta data LUN is totaly destroied , is there any way to rebuild the data from the video LUN

    If meta data LUN is totaly destroied , is there any way to rebuild the data from the video LUN ????

    What happened to your metadata? Are you sure the metadata is gone?
    In theory, file carving could be attempted on the data LUNs, but you would need a tool that understands how Xsan lays out data across LUNs in a stripe group and hope your fragmentation isn't too bad. I doubt such a tool exists, but if one does it almost certainly is not publicly available. You should probably contact a data recovery service with experience recovering data from Xsan. Do that before you do anything else if this data is really important.

  • My computer has some serious problems, my iphoto only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them, i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them. originally all the photos has a large delta with a question mark. also I can't back up

    my computer has some serious problems, my iphoto only shows  only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them, i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them. originally all the photos had a large delta with a question mark. also I can't back up the library file because its not there. I went to time machune and tried to find the file but I can't find it or I am looking in the wrong place. I also lost my Idvd file, only have broken chain showing.

    Details please
    What version of iPhoto and of the OS?
    i tried to rebuild my files from folders that had the pics in them.
    Exactly what did you do and how did you do it? this ay be the cause of your issue but without details we can n=ony guess
    my iphoto only shows  only shows thumb size pics when I try to open them,
    where do you see htis? In the iPhoto window? what does "try to pen them" exactly mean?
    originally all the photos had a large delta with a question mark.
    Ok - this usually has a simple solution - do you still have a copy of the library that has this problem?
    also I can't back up the library file because its not there.
    This makes no sense at all - all of your previous statements indicate that you do have an iPhoto library but have some problems with it
    By default your iPHoto library is located in your Pictures folder and is named iPhtoo library - if tha tis not the case the you have moved or renamed it and only you know what you did until you tell us the details
    I went to time machune and tried to find the file but I can't find it or I am looking in the wrong place.
    Again unless you actually share what and how you are doing thing but continue to simply state abstract problems it is no possible to assist you - details on using Time Machine are here  --  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1427?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US   --     and   --    http://pondini.org/TM/FAQ.html   ---
    I also lost my Idvd file, only have broken chain showing.
    This would be better addressed in the iDVD forum - but again unlesss yu share detailed information no one can assist

  • How do I restore playlist folders from iPod classic to iTunes? The library is intact, but the playlists are not and I don't want to rebuild them from scratch!

    After reformatting my HD and reimporting all songs back into iTunes succesfully, the playlist folders are gone and I don't want to rebuild them from scratch. How do I restore playlists from iPod classic to iTunes 11.1.3 without resorting to 3rd party options?

    I actually tried that in "my computer" by renaming the drive and then got this:
    g-raid (F:) (H:)
    then after reading your reply realized I should try renaming it in "disk management" and hey! it worked.
    Thanks a lot for the advice.
    Now I don't understand why my back-up drive isn't automatically adding the files when I import into the Ex-HD but I'll figuree it out.

    Hi, Ken -
    Since you have a new install of OSX, you may be missing Stuffit Expander, needed to expand downloads encrypted/archived in a Stuffit format. That problem confronted me with a new machine running OSX 10.6; a download and install of Stuffit Expander fixed it.
    You can download Stuffit Expander from this webpage -
    http://www.stuffit.com/mac-expander-download.html
    Note - be sure to get the version that matches your OSX version.
