  • How to use different xsl's for user first time logon in OAM

    Hi,
    We have a requirement to use different stylesheets (xsls) for employees and customers in OAM. How we can configure different XSLs for user first time logon to OAM (i.e for change password and configuring challenge and responses).
    Any pointers on this is appreciated.
    Thanks in advance..
    Srikanth

    XSLs displayed are controlled by the StyleCookie. So if you can set the value of this cookie to be different front customers and employees, they will see different styles.
    You can do this in various locations -> from the web server, from the url, custom plugins, etc....

  • Create fully automated Outlook profile at user first time logon to the windows

    Hi experts, I do have one scenario and its quite urgent...
    I have one email address, that to be act as a notification email from Outlook.
    The thing is we need to have Outlook fully setup with profile and password when an user log in.
    I have done the prf and plan to have it fired with VB script when user logon(using windows logon startup script function).
    The prf can be successfully fired and its created profile in outlook, however the user credentials logon will be prompted everytime the user log on, and the user will not know the password, except us, email administrator.
    This is carried out in ：
    - Azure Windows server 2012
    - Outlook 2013
    - And the user will not access remotely to the server, they will only access to RDP, which we hosted our application.
    (And the mentioned application will need to send some notification email to the users.
    I hope i have not missed out anything. Anyone please shed some light for this.
    Your help is appreciated !

    Hi Melon,
    Thanks for quick reply !
    Yes. I have setup prf file and not able to store any password in it. Our user will have to type in the password in the prompted windows. The thing is we are not exposing the password to the user. In fact, they are not able to view the windows screen as they
    are only connect to RDP application.
    Now we are using Exchange account and soon we will migrate our email server to Office 365.
    VB Script as something below (which i downloaded from online resources) :
    'Name:  
    'CreateOutlookProfile.vbs
    'Author: 
    'Jack (Aka "IT Guy")
    'Purpose: 
    'This script searches under HKCU in the registry for an Outlook profile 
    'with the specified name. If the profile is present, the script terminates. 
    'If a matching profile is not found, the script launches Outlook with the
    '/importprf switch, and imports a custom .prf file from the path specified
    'to create the profile.
    'Prereqs: 
    'You must first create a .prf file with the custom settings required for
    'your environment using either the Custom Installation Wizard included 
    'in the Office XP/2003 Resource Kit Tools, or the Office Customization
    'Tool (OCT) included with volume-licensed editions of Office 2007/2010.
    'In Many environments, Office 2003 is the lowest common denominator, so prf
    'files created with the 2003 CIW should be used, to ensure compatibility
    'with all Outlook clients. (XP/2003 prf files are compatible with 2007/2010)
    'License:
    'You are free to use this code for personal or commercial purposes. No 
    'attribution is required, though it is always appreciated! The only thing
    'I ask is that you do not re-post this on another website, but rather post
    'a link to my blog (http://AdmiNuggets.blogspot.com) instead. Furthermore, 
    'I offer no warranty or guarantee of functionality with this script, meaning

  • BCM System Configurator First Time Logon Issue

    Hi Experts,
    After creating all Virtual Units successfully on BCM 7.0 SP6 batch 1, I tried to open SC using 32-bit Java and 32-bit IE on a laptop on which the certificate Authority and connection certificates installed..
    I used the default credentials written at BCM Basic Installation example which is "BCM.Admin" and "12345678"..
    I got error message stating "Error during log on, Check username and password".
    I tried to log on with BCMAdmin user credentials with no luck..
    I tried to open IA from the web it opened with no issues..
    Any ideas??

    Hi Agur,
    I found "SQL Server does not exist or access denied" error message in Agent Server log file.
    I searched for that error and got the following link:
    Potential causes of the &quot;SQL Server does not exist or access denied&quot; error message
    It states: "SQL Server does not exist or access denied" is a generic Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) message that indicates that the computer that is running Microsoft SQL Server cannot be contacted."
    So, I tried to run SC from the BCM DB Server itself and it worked.
    Now, I believe there is a connection error (eg:access denied) between BCM Database Server and (BCM Application Server and other clients)..
    However, I am not able to figure it out...
    Any Ideas??
    Kindly find below the Complete log file for Agent server:

  • SQL Server Management Studio - Configuring the environment for first time use

    Hi
    I have recently switched my local 'My Documents' folder location to a network drive that I 'make available off line' to allow on-line/off-line work and synchronisation when I am working in and out of the office.
    When I load my SQL Server Management Studio 2005 I frequently get 'Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio is configuring the environment for first time use'.
    Management Studio  them loads and I can continue without problem.
    I am guessing it is trying to make reference to some settings file. Any ideas? I wonder if I can change/move these settings elsewhere to a local drive?
    Thanks

  • Help.. First Time Using DVD Studio Pro!!

    OK .. this is my first time using DVD Studio Pro. Before this I have always used IDVD for my Final Cut Projects, but I now need to branch out!
    I've hit a bit of a brick wall. I've watched the video tutorials and tried to read the instruction manual, but it's heavy going!!!.. can someone help me get over the hump?
    Here's where I've got to:
    - In my Assets tab I have my two file - Test.mov QT Video File and Test.mov QT Audio file. Both are yellow uncompressed video. I also have a templates folder.
    - I chose the template called brush cover which I can see under the menu tab on a window. If I go to that same window and select the graphical tab I can see a menu 1 and track 1.
    - In my timeline I have dragged my Video and adui assets over and can see them and actually play the movie.
    - What is also worth mentioning is that I can also see the 18 chapter markers that I created in FCP.
    - Now I hit the brick wall!!.
    - Back in my menu I see 8 buttons. In my timeline I have 18 chapters. How do I transfer my 18 chapters over to my menu so that I have 18 buttons each one representing a chapter?
    - I'm sure that it's obvious and a silly question.. but for a rookie like me who's trying to figure this out from scratch it's not easy!
    Thanks for any advise!!.. also if anyone has a good 'idiot's guide' for ex iDVD people moving to DVD Pro then I'd really appreciate it!
    Many Thanks!
    Steve.

    Back in my menu I see 8 buttons. In my timeline I have 18 chapters. How do I transfer my 18 chapters over to my menu so that I have 18 buttons each one representing a chapter?
    You can duplicate your 8 buttons menu so many time as you need to include your 18 chapters, creating a simple new button to navigate through Chapter Menu1, Chapter Menu2, etc.
    Or you can duplicte&resize buttons to fit more of them in a single menu, but 18 button chapters could be too much for a comfortable navigation.
    Thanks for any advise!!.. also if anyone has a good 'idiot's guide' for ex iDVD people moving to DVD Pro then I'd really appreciate it!

  • Working on new first time Visual Studio project...need advice

    Hello,
    I have been asked to develop a new desktop application that will be used on 2 or 3 computers.  The client wants to attach all computers to a MySQL database on a separate server.  so we have 3 computers linking to the same MySQL database on a server. 
    I am contemplating building something similar to QuickBooks 2013 that functions in a similar manner and has a ribbon at the top. I've been evaluating desktop development applications for some time and have decided to go with Visual Studio Express 2013. 
    My questions is that I am wondering if this is possible to do and/or if someone has a suggestion that would be a better fit for such a scenario.
    Being new to VSE2013 is going to be interesting, but it won't be the first time I have had to learn a new environment.
    suggestions welcome and MUCH appreciated.

  • Error while deploying Essbase studio

    Hi All,
    I need some help with the studio deployment error. I have created a bat script to run Maxl which will deploy essbase studio, then create some user defined measures using rules files and then calculation.
    When I ran the batch script first time, it was successful. Now its giving me the following error :
    BPM Connect Status: Success
    Failed to deploy Essbase cube.
    Caused by: Cannot begin incremental build. Essbase Error(1007151): Wrong incremental dimension build sequence
    BPM maxl deployment ...failure.
    Please help
    Thanks

    There is no issue for BSO cubes. Internally the BSO outlines are different from ASO cubes and this restriction does not appear in them. For ASO cubes, the problem is caused by deleting and readding dimensions. If you do incremental builds on dimensions, you will not have the 255 dimension issue, but the ASO outline will still grow. So the compaction utility in EsscmdQ is still valid for that.

  • How to update all hierarchies in Essbase Studio

    Hi All,
    Currently I am building ASO cube using Essbase Studio.We are having 6[Stored]+1[Accounts] hierarchies in that 3 hiearchies contains 4 generations and remianing 3 hiearchies contains 3 generations with 20 attricbutes each.When I am trying to use "INCREMENTAL LOAD" with "Update all hierarchies" option records gets rejected.When I am using "Incremental Load" with "Rebuild hierarchies" it taking very long time.
    Since our ware house is huge I cannot reset all and load from first.
    Can someone assist me how to update the hierarchies on daily basis in less time
    Note: In our cube we dont have any shared members
    Thanks,
    SatyaB

    The == and !== are to set conditions for filtering. the ! meand not. In esscense these allow you to get a subset of rows that meet the conditions specified. In your case where Gender == "M" you will only get those rows where the value is "M". What you want to do is transform rows not filter them. I have not looked at studio enough yet to know how to do this, but a few things come to mind. First, you could use text to create the outline menbers instead of values from the tables, you could crete a reference table with the M = Male and F = Female and join to it to get the values or you could use a standard load rule and sql interface to load the data and just build the dimensions and drill through from Studio. I think I would opt for the second option

  • Essbase Studio Deployment Dimension Build Errors

    I have a ASO cube used to handle Subsidiary financial reporting to parent. Rather than alternate hierarchies, we use attribute dimensions for yearly differentiation. The ASO cube typically holds information for Current year + 3 prior years. This is the first year that we will achieve this as this cube was created near the beginning of 2010. Therefore, with the cube already having attribute dimension for 2010 & 2011, with the beginning of 2013 it is necessary to create the 2012 attribute dimensions. The cube has 13 anchor dimensions. Typically only 4 of these dimensions have attribute dimensions derived from them. Nonetheless, the following is the build list of the dimensions in the essbase model:
    1: Financials Standard, Dynamic, Sparse
    2: GL Date Time, Stored, Sparse
    3: Incident Date Standard, Stored, Sparse
    4: View Standard, Dynamic, Dense
    5: Company Standard, Multiple-hierarchy, Sparce
    6: Well location Standard, Stored, Sparse
    7: Depletion Code Standard, Stored, Sparse
    8: Vendor Standard, Stored, Sparse
    9: Entity Standard, Stored, Sparse
    10: Profit Center Standard, Stored, Sparse
    11: Curr Yr Cost Obj Standard, Stored, Sparse
    12: Past Yr Cost Obj Standard, Stored, Sparse
    13: Measures Accounts, Dynamic, Existing
    Attribute dimensions are mainly created in 4 of the Defined Hierarchies with in the cube; 1:FINANCIALS, 5:COMPANY, 6:WELL Location, & 10:PROFIT CENTER.
    According to the Essbase Server log, upon deployment, the FINANCIALS Hierarchy generates 19 Dimension Build rule files with the associated SQL to pull members from our SQL Dimension Build tables obviously based on the way the Hierarchy is built as well as the joins created in the MiniSchema in the referenced Data Source. The COMPANY Hierarchy generates 5 Dimension Build rule files, WELL LOCATION generates only 1 Dimension Build rule file (this is mainly due to the fact that all the attributes generated from WELL LOCATION are built from the same table), and PROFIT CENTER Generates 3 Dimension build rule files. At this point for comparison purposes I want to include excerpts from the Server Deployment Log file depicting the dimension build rule files generated from the PROFIT CENTER Hierarchy:
    Rule 1 Labeled XXXX_PRO.rul
    … FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center] cp_319 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 ON (cp_319.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    Rule 2 Labeled XXXX_PR1.rul
    … FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2010] cp_275 ON (cp_275.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code_2010]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    Rule 3 Labeled XXXX_PR2.rul
    FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2011] cp_276 ON (cp_276.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code_2011]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    These Dimension Build rule files are recreated nightly on 4 different production servers, each one successfully redeploying nightly with zero errors.
    So now I need to add the new 2012 tables to the Data Source/MiniSchema, create the joins in the MiniSchema mimicking the joins for the 2010 & 2011 Attribute Dimensions. It would be difficult to demonstrate the joins in the MiniSchema but trust me they are there and this is proven by the additional Dimension Build rule files from the appropriate Hierarchies.
    So on our test server, which is configured exactly like all 4 of our production servers, I have begun the creation of the 2012 attribute dimensions. I begin with the FINANCIALS Hierarchy adding 7 new attribute dimensions, 6 that are cross table and one that is inter-table.
    At this point no changes have been made to any of the other 3 Hierarchies that contain Attribute dimensions; COMPANY, WELL LOCATION, or PROFIT CENTER. They still look exactly as they did in the current state discussed above. Upon deployment, the FINANCIALS Hierarchy generates , as expected 25 Dimension Build rule files, 6 additional because only 6 were cross table attributes, the 7th was within the anchor table and therefore would be included in the first dimension build rule file. COMPANY still generates 5 Dimension Build rule files, again as expected. WELL LOCATION still generates only the 1 Dimension rule file also as expected. Lastly, PROFIT CENTER also again only generates the 3 Dimension Rule files, however, one has materially changed as noted below:
    Rule 1 Labeled XXXX_PRO.rul
    …FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center] cp_319 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 ON ((cp_319.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code]) AND (cp_328.[profit_center_code]=cp_319.[profit_center_code])) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    Rule 2 Labeled XXXX_PR1.rul (This one did not change)
    …FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2010] cp_275 ON (cp_275.[profit_center_code]=cp_328.[profit_center_code_2010]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    Rule 3 Labeled XXXX_PR2.rul (This one did not change)
    …FROM [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_company_acct] cp_328 INNER JOIN [Essbase_XXXXX].[dbo].[vw_essbase_XXXXX_profit_center_2011] cp_276 ON (cp_328.[profit_center_code_2011]=cp_276.[profit_center_code]) ORDER BY cp_328.[profit_center_code] ASC, cp_328.[company_minor_acct] ASC`.
    The change in Rule 1 above appears to now require something different from the previous deployment and when we run the deployment now it runs forever and ultimately fails, yet no changes have been made to the Hierarchy, no changes have been made to the MiniSchema involving joins to the tables used in the building of the Hierarchy, and no new tables have been added to the data source that would affect this Hierarchy.
    Additionally, I have also run each of these incrementally, and the PROFIT CENTER even incrementally still makes the change to the SQL statement shown above.
    So finally, to my question, Why and What caused this Dimension Build Rule file to change and ultimately led to deployment failure? Has anyone ever encountered this in Essbase Studio Deployments?

    Gurus, anybody anything on this one??
    I haave done a small adjustment in the dimension order by which I have eliminated the following error:
    Record #40 - Error adding Dynamic calc property to member xxxxxxxxx (3320)
    Record #40 - No time dimension defined
    But, I have the following new error/warning (cube build successfull in this case) when I made this adjustment:
    Record #427 - Error adding Attribute to member PATB4_ADJ-PDA (3320)
    The adjustment I made is... I moved TIME dimension up and ACCOUNT dimension below that...so the order I have now is TIME,ACCOUNT,SCENATRIO,XXX,XXXX instead of ACCOUNT,TIME,SCENARIO,XXX,XXXXX ..*would this create any performance issues?*

  • Essbase Studio data load and other

    Hi There,
    I got my cube build from my data mart with one fact table and bunch of dimensions and deploy successfully to essbase server. The questions I have are:
    1. I have another fact table with the same dimensions, I need to load the data into the cube I build. How do I load the data from Essbase Studio, should I add that new Fact table into my schemas? I know I can load the data through EAS, but it seems defeated the purpose of Essbase studio.
    2. Is there any way I can specify from essbase studio for certain, for example, account level, as TB Last, or Avg, it seems you have to apply to the whole level as TB Last, etc. from Essbase Model Properties.
    Thanks

  • Building a system for the first time

    I recently posted a few weeks back about buying a system from either Dell or HP http://forums.adobe.com/thread/732545?tstart=0.  I quickly learned that those systems were not going to fit my need based on my budget.  So, I decided after researching components that I will build a computer by hand for the first time.  I am still operating on a budget of around $1000, but I'm giving the budget a bit of flexibility so I don't limit my options.  I am a hobbyist who only has experience using Power Director on my laptop, but I had a lot of fun editing for the first time and I want to step up my game.  With the new system, I plan to use adobe premiere cs5 and after effects.  I will capture my video from either an HD Helmet cam or HD flip format is  MPEG-4 AVC/H.264.  So where I need help is selecting the right things to optimize my performance.  The following is a list of items I'm looking with their prices.  Please help me decide what will be right for me.  Open to any combo of suggestions or comments. Thanks!
    Processor
    Intel i7 930 $200 microcenter
    Intel i7 950 $230 microcenter
    I don't know if I want overclock yet, but it sounds like a good idea.  $30 for the upgrade to the i7 950 seems pretty good. ro do I use the money elsewhere?
    Motherboard
    GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R $210
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128423
    Seems like a good mobo. Are there any features that this board lacks that I should look for in another board? Also, newegg offers significant deals on "open box" products.  Is this a good way to go?
    Ram
    I have a few questions for this selection.  I've currently budgeted approximately $250 for ram.  I'm looking at going with 12GB.  I certainly don't have the budget for 24GB, but what about 16GB?
    Do I look for 1333 or 1600?  2GB or 4GB sticks?  Would I be fine if I bought say 2 packs of 6GB ram, both same manufacturer and same type or would I want to buy 1 pack of 12GB?
    GPU
    Nvidia Geforce gtx 460 1GB $220
    Is it worth it to go to the 470? I know it's a better card but being a budget is really worth the upgrade or can I get away with a 460?
    Any recomendations for a 460 as there are many in the same price range?
    Drives
    I see these drives priced in the $55 range which would leave at around $220 for the lot of em
    These are the drives I'm looking at as they are highly recommended on this board:
    SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3
    WD Caviar Black
    Right now, I plan to buy 4 drives.  Do I want 4 of the exact same? or say 1 cavier black for os/ programs and 3 samsung f3 for pagefile/scratch/renders?  Can I also get a brief description of what these are too?  Also, could have a 500gb for os/programs and 1tb for the rest or would it be advisable for 1tb for all? or 500gb for all?
    I don't think I can do a raid setup based on my budget, but I saw this as an option on the thread for storage rules is to use the on-board IHCR or Marvell chip.  I don't know really anything about this, but what would the price be to explore this option?
    Case
    Cooler Master Storm Scout $90
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119196
    I picked this case for a few reasons.  I seem move about every 6 months so the handles on top would be very useful, and it seems to have good cooling.  I know a full size case is recommended, but they seem to be significantly more.
    Cooling
    Noctua NH-U12P SE2 120mm SSO CPU Cooler $75
    Everywhere I look this cooler seems to get great reviews.  I figure it could be a good idea to get a good cooler if I get a mid-tower case.
    The only other option I can think of for case/cooling is to combine the budgeted price for both and look at different options like a full size case with a less quality cooler. Is this a better option
    PSU
    Looking into an 850 W power supply.  I figure to budget $80 towards as I've seen a few in that range
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817517003
    so would something like this work?
    Final Thoughts
    So, when you add it all up its about $1350.  First question, how does this look overall?  Nothing I've chosen is obviously overkill, but is there anything I can afford to go cheaper on? or anything I should invest more into?
    Thanks again to everyone for the help.  The resources, info and people on this forum have just been awesome.

    Seems like we are planning very similar PCs.  My build is going to be for: amateur video editing including animation mainly with CS5, application design and coding mainly with MS Visual Studio 2008, HTPC (until I build a cheap dedicated unit for the TV), general family computing.  I am new to this stuff, but can at least share some pricing and my decision making process so far.
    Here is what I have selected so far regarding the parts:
    MotherBoard: Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R x58
    Seems like one of the lower cost x58 MBs and has some decent reviews.  Wait for a sale, you should be able to find this for around $180.00.  That is how much I got it for from New Egg (straight up with savings code no rebate), should be arriving on my doorstep tomorrow.  Also, I think Fry's has it now for $170.00 in store, but that includes a $20.00 rebate and tax. 
    PowerSupply: Corsair TX650W
    Some might think this is on the low side.  On the other hand, I have gotten other conflicting advice, stating that many people overestimate their actual power needs.  So who knows.  I have read that a PSU works more efficient when it is matched to the power needs - meaning that a 1000w PSU that is generally seeing 200w usage might not be so efficient.  Anyway, I got the PSU for $50.00 from New Egg (with rebate), and it has a good reputation, so we will see how it goes.
    Graphics Card: GIGABYTE GV-N460OC-1GI GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5
    I was planning on a lower cost card, but then noticed this card for sale over the weekend for $178.00 (with rebate), so I ordered one.  I have read the GTX460 has reasonable power requirements, and can be made to take advantage of CUDA/Mercury with CS5 (although haven't done much research into that).  This particular version based on reviews, seems fairly quite with the twin fans. It's possible I overspent a bit on this card considering my needs, time will tell.
    Here is what I am planning to purchase:
    CPU: i7 930
    I am fortunate to live near a Fry's and MicroCenter ($200.00).  From reading the forum, seems like this is generally the lowest CPU folks go in terms of building an editing machine.  I understand the argument that for only $30.00 more, one can upgrade to the i7 950.  On the other hand, that argument could be made for many of the components, and then before you know it, a little extra here and there, and the budget is shot:)  So I am planning to draw the line at the 930.
    Here are my undecided’s:
    Memory
    I am up in the air between 6or12gig/module compatibility/cost.  But one thing for you to keep in mind, is the official memory certified for the motherboard you select.  For the Gigabyte motherboard, I missed out on a recent RAM deal, because the RAM was not officially certified for the board.  Some people tell me this is important, while others say "RAM is RAM" and no big deal.  Something to consider.
    HardDrives
    Same as you, considering the Samsung Spinpoint F3.  Good prices now at MicroCenter on the 16MB cache models in 500 and 1TB sizes.  I just don't know if larger cache sizes are important or not, since they are also offered in 32MB and higher.
    Anyway, good luck with your build and hope it works well.
