How to identify fraud calls

I am receiving calls from bm.alrm and pmm4.auotocall and I have no idea who or what they are. I don't want to accept them as a contact because of possible bogus calls. Can you identify if these are genuine. Thanks

How to identify BW caller in Sap R/3 Data Source user exit

Hi,
I have the following question :
I use the same R/3 extractor to load two different SAP BW system. Before, the data must be enriched by a user exit process ( CMOD ).
In this exit, the treatment for each datasource is identified by the case clause but I have to do some different treatment for each BW target for the same datasource
CASE i_datasource.
when 'MyDatasource'
    if BW Caller = BW 1
       Data treatment for BW 1
    else .
    if BW Caller = BW 2
       Data treatment for BW 2
    endif.
Do you know the way to identify the SAP BW system caller in the R/3 user exit in order to aplly a specific treatment for the same datasource ?
Thanks for your help.
Marc

hi,
not very nice but and not really satisfying:
if the users of the remote-users for the logon from the BWs onto the one R/3 differ you could use sy-uname to check what bw is extracting ...
everything else is a bit more complex

cheers

How to identify toll free numbers in CUCM

Hi
I am new to this Cisco VOIP system.
My Company has many toll free numbers. I need to know where can I find the toll free number details. I had a request today to alter few settings in them. But I dont know what to do and where to do.
Eg : 800326xxxx is the number. Request is - When people call in, they have to press 1 for billing and 2 for sales and 3 for enquiry and 4 for voice mail.
How do I go for it. Where should I start.
Again As I am new, I really appreciate if someone could explain how to identify these toll free numbers in this cisco system and help me in this request with simple steps and simple english. THanks.
Deva

Usually the toll free number resides at the service provider and they just translate that number into one of your DIDs. You can either look through documentation or call the service provider to ask which 1800 numbers map to which DIDs. From there it sounds like you'll need to investigate call handlers in your voicemail system correlated to that DID.

How to identify default browser through a 'C' program on solaris 8

I have a requirement to display a html page in the default browser installed on solaris 8 machine through a C program.
through a C program,
1. How to identify the default browser installed on a solaris machine?
2 How to get the path of the default browser installed on solaris machine?
thanks in advance.

Thaks a lot for the help,
When Internet Explorer is installed on solaris as a default browser, it does not change
the user-prefs.dt file. But still when a HTML document is double clicked from the file manager of solaris CDE, it opens the HTML page in Internet Explorer.
Internet Explorer copies a file called IE.dt in /etc/dt/appconfig/types/C. Just by copying a file how does the CDE file manager is able to open any html file in Internet Explorer??
Further the installation path of the Internet Explorer is not fixed as that of netscape. Our application need to display the HTML help in user's default browser.
On Windows-NT this can be implemented just by passing the html file as an argument to a win32 API ShellExecute(FindExecutable can also be used.
How this can be achieved on solaris??
Regards,
Atul.

How to identify a user across multiple pages

Hi,
I'm doing a homebanking and I would like to know how to identify a user across multiple pages.
I have already take a look at HTTPSESSION, but I didn't understand.
Can someone help me.
I'm send the servlet Logon.

          res.setContentType("text/html");
out = res.getWriter();
String opcao = req.getParameter("log");
Thanks

I would recommend using the authentication mechanism that's guaranteed by the servlet spec. If you do that, you can just call
request.getRemoteUser()
to get the user name across multiple pages.
If you want to use your own login scheme, you can create a new session object and map it to a user name somewhere in your app. Or you can just put the name of the user on the session. But the preferred way is to use the default authentication scheme defined by the spec.

How to identify the locks in oracle db objects? i dont have access to check

How to identify the locks in oracle db objects? i dont have access to check the v$lock or v$ objects. i dont have dba access. what are the symptoms for table, row or objects lock? how v guess it would be lock?
Thanks in advance friends..

I believe you will have to call your DBA on the phone in that case.
You can query something with a select ... for update nowait.
If it raises an exception you can handle it within a when section.

How to identify the installed Weblogic Server and JDK are 32bit or 64bit?

Hi everyone,
I have a question ~
Both Weblogic Server and JAVA JDK are installed on the server already, but I only know the Weblogic Server is 10.3.4.0 and JAVA JDK version is 1.6.0_25.
I know the 64bit Weblogic Server installation file is a wlsXXXX_generic.jar package and 64bit JAVA JDK needed also.
But, since the Weblogic installed already, there are no such installation files on the Linux Server now.
I have tried the "java -version" for java version and check the Weblogic version from Weblogic console.
How to identify the installed Weblogic Server and JDK are 32bit or 64bit with Linux command? Or is there any way to check it?

What you can try to do is use WLST (or an MBean browser, such as JConsole or JRockit Mission Control) and connect to the adminserver.
For example when using WLST:
# set the environment by using setWLSEnv.sh (located in the ${WL_HOME}/server/bin directory).
# start WLST by using: java weblogic.WLST
# connect to the adminserver
connect('adminusername','adminpassword');
# change to the serverruntime environment
serverRuntime();
# show the attributes
ls();
# Here an attribute is shown called WebLogicVersion that shows the version of WebLogic
-r-- WeblogicVersion WebLogic Server 10.3.5.0 Fri Apr 1 20:20:06 PDT 2011 1398638
# Note that this does not show if is 32 bits or 64 bits to retrieve this information you have obtain the JVM version
# change the directory
cd('JVMRuntime/AdminServer');
# show the attributes
ls();
-r-- Version R28.0.1-21-133393-1.6.0_20-20100512-2126-linux-x86_64
# when you have something like x86 at the you are running a 32 bit version, if you have something like x86_64 you are running a 64 bits versionAs mentioned above you can also retrieve this information by using a MBean browser.

How many types of Queues exists and how to identify them.

Hello
can anyone say How many types of Queues exists and how to identify them.
What does R3R* and CSA* stands for.
Regards,
divya

Hi Divya,
The queues R3* and CSA* that you have specified are qRFC queues. qRFC queues are data queues which transport data to and fro different systems.
There are also the tRFC queues which are triggered whenever you make RFC calls to connect to another system.
Queues with prefix R3AD* - for delta download from R3->CRM
Queues with prefix R3AU* - for data upload from CRM->R3
Queues with prefix R3AR* - used to transfer data during request load from R3->CRM
Queues with prefix R3AI* - for initial load from R3->CRM
Queues with prefix CSA* - these are validation object specific queues used for processing/persisting data in CRM tables in a serialized manner. E.g. CSABUPA* for business partner,CSA_ORDER* for sales order etc.
You can administer and monitor the queues in trax. SMQR,SMQS.
Hope this helps you! Pls. do not forget to reward me some points.
Regards,
Sudipta.

How to identify relevant BADIs to hide a screen field from specific users

We have a business requirement to hide a document item field (BSEG-XREF3) from specific users (i.e make the field invisible if the userid does not exist in a Z table) during FI invoice entry/maintenance/display via transactions FB01, FB02, FB03, FV50, FV60, FBV0, etc.. We know that it would be possible to do this via modification to the Process Before Output sections of LF040O00, LFDCBFM0, MF05AO00_DYNPRO_MODIFIZIEREN, MF05LO00, but would prefer to avoid modification if possible.
I believe that BADIs could possibly be used for screen enhancements, but have not had any previous exposure to BADIs, so I'm really not sure whether it's possible to use BADIs for our specific requirement. For example, using the advice given in the 2nd post in thread BADI for contract, I've searched SAPMF05A for all 'CALL METHOD cl_exithandler=>get_instance' statements, and have found that a single BADI (FBAS_CIN_MF05AFA0 - EWT - Downpayment Clearing - Tax transfer for CIN) seems to exist for FB01. The description of this BADI sounds completely inappropriate for our requirement. However, subsequent posts in that thread suggest far more BADIs for the relevant transaction than were given when searching the ABAP for all 'CALL METHOD cl_exithandler=>get_instance' statements, so I'm not convinced that the procedure I'm following will provide me with all the relevant BADIs for the transaction.
Please can you advise me how to identify which BADIs - if any - can be used to control screens before output for FB01 screen SAPMF05A/332 (SAP R/3 4.6C)?
Many thanks in anticipation,
Jules

Hi Kuntal,
Thank you very, very much for your prompt response and very useful alternative suggestion.
The screen variant solution would be invaluable under different circumstances, but would be too complex to administer for this particular issue because we're trying to hide the field from unauthorised users in over 100 invoice entry/maintenance/display transactions.
We can make a Process Before Output modification to 4 SAP standard programs (LF040O00, LFDCBFM0, MF05AO00_DYNPRO_MODIFIZIEREN, MF05LO00) to make the field invisible for unauthorised users (i.e. whose user-ids are not in a Z* table), but would prefer to avoid modification if we could use BADIs instead. You've said that you're not sure how we can identify the relevant BADIs, but I very much appreciate the suggestion you've made anyway - it might be useful to others who find themselves in a similar situation for a more limited number of transactions.
Please can someone advise me how to identify which BADIs - if any - can be used to control screens before output for FB01 screen SAPMF05A/332 (SAP R/3 4.6C)?
Many thanks,
Jules

How to identify BTE's relating to a transaction?

Can anyone pls tell me how to identify BTE's related to a transaction...or rather what are the BTE's related to the transaction CM01,CM02,CM03,CM04?

Example Business Scenario for Business Transaction Events
Company A would like to copy the group key field from the vendor master into the allocation field on all the line items within a vendor invoice and payments, including the vendor lines. This requirement assumes only one vendor is posted to in a document.
To accomplish this requirement, Company A will use the Business Transaction Event 1130, Post Document: SAP Internal Field Substitution.
1. IMG Menu Path: Financial Accounting Financial Accounting Global Settings Use Business Transaction Events Environment Infosystem (Processes).
2. Find the correct Business Event. You are updating a field, so you select the Processes Info System instead of the Publish and Subscribe Info System.
3. Execute the search with the defaults.
4. Find the correct interface for updating a document: Post Document: SAP- Internal Field Substitution
5. Put your cursor on the event and click on the Sample Function Module button.
6. You are now in transaction SE37 Function Builder. This is the function module (sample_process_00001130) you will need to copy into a "Z" name function module for your coding
7. Click on the Copy button.
8. Enter the "Z" function module name in the To Function Module field
9. Enter a Function Group. If you need to create a "Z" function group, go to transaction code SE37 and follow menu path: Go to Function Groups Create Group. A function group is a logical grouping of function modules, and the ABAP code is generated for function groups. You will be prompted for a development class and transport when creating the function group.
10. In Function Builder (transaction SE37), enter the new "Z" function module. Click on the Change button.
11. The system will default into the source code screen where you may enter your ABAP code.
12. Notice the tables available for the code. Additional tables may be declared if necessary.
13. Enter the following source code
tables: lfa1.
data: z_groupkey like lfa1-konzs.
z_groupkey = ' '.
loop at t_bseg.
check for vendor lines. If one is found, read the vendor master and
retrieve the group key field.
if t_bseg-koart eq 'K'.
select single konzs from lfa1 into z_groupkey
where lifnr = t_bseg-lifnr.
endif.
Move the group key field into all line items allocation field.
loop at t_bsegsub.
t_bsegsub-zuonr = z_groupkey.
modify t_bsegsub index sy-tabix.
endloop. "t_bsegsub
endloop. "t_bseg
14. Save the function module.
15. Back out to the main Function Builder screen by clicking on the green arrow button.
16. Activate the function module by clicking on the Activate button
17. Assign the function module to the event in the IMG: Financial Accounting Financial Accounting Global Settings Business Transaction Events Settings Process Function Modules of an SAP Appl.
18. Hit enter past the warning messages that this is SAP data.
19. Click on the New Entries button.
20. Enter the process for your interface. In your example it is 00001130.
21. Enter the country the interface is valid for. If it is valid for all countries, leave this field blank.
22. Enter the application the interface should be called for. If it should be called for all applications, leave this field blank. Please note that not all integrated transactions are programmed to go through these interfaces! You will need to test to find out!
23. Enter the new "Z" function module
24. Save the settings. At this point you will be prompted for a CTS number for the configuration change.
25. The Business Transaction Event is complete! You are ready for testing.

How to remove wrlock calls ?

We have analysed the performance of our applications using Quantify and find that a lot of the time is spent in calls to llrw_wrlock/unlock etc.
Our application is written in C++ built using SunWS4.2 on Solaris 2.6.
The application is single-threaded but sits on top of a thread-safe 'architecture' designed in-house.
We make use of the RogueWave libaries Tools.h/Money.h, and of Oracle 8.1.6.
I know from dbx that our application consists of 3 threads. 1 of which is the 'application' thread (where the application functionality is executed), 1 thread sits on a signotify wait, another sits on a condtimedwait.
I have looked on google to try to identify what the llrw_wrlock is (I had already guessed it was mutex lock related) - and came to the conclusion that it may be related to thread context switching. (We are using unbound LWP threads). I also determined that we were using a SCHED_OTHER thread scheduling policy. So I concluded that if I could keep the 'application' thread on CPU (or more to the point - on LWP) then I might improve performance.
I experimented with changing thread scheduling policy (using sched_setscheduler) but eventually found that only SCHED_OTHER is supported on Solaris when using native Solaris threads. (Note to Sun: the man pages are very poor in this area - man sched_setscheduler gives the impression that the other policies are supported - and it is not until one does 'man thr_setprio' that one realises that only SCHED_OTHER is supported - or if one is lucky enough to have the Sun Education "Multi-threaded Application Programming" manual to hand ;-[ ).
I also experimented with changing thread priority for the 'application' thread (trying priorities of 120 through to 127, and also a priority of 10 - in case I had misunderstood the man pages).
All my experiments have been to no avail - there was no performance change between my modified applications and the unmodified.
I also created a stock C++ application
int k=0;
for (int i = 0; i< 1000;++i)
for (int j=0;j < 1000000; ++j)
k++;
I compiled this and compared it against the same algorithm executed from within one of our 'architecture' wrappers - again no difference in performance, which gave me the impression that there was no negligible performance overhead caused by the"multi-threaded" nature of our architecture.
This has led me to believe that the Quantify figures produced are a red-herring ?
Can anyone else confirm my findings or has had similar performance issues that they have now overcome ? (If so - could you please indicate what the solution is ?)
Many thanks

We have analysed the performance of our applications
using QuantifyYou may be interested to know that the latest version of Workshop,
called Sun ONE Studio 7 Enterprise Edition, comes with a tool
called Performance Analyzer that will give you a lot more information.
In particular, it will tell you not only where you are spending your
time but how you got there (call stack) and which of multiple paths
through the call stack is taking the most time. It will also analyze
time spent at various types of locks.
and find that a lot of the time is
spent in calls to llrw_wrlock/unlock etc.As you probably know, rw_wrlock is an interface to something
called a readers-writer lock. It is a form of mutual exclusion lock
that allows many readers into a protected section but only one
writer. llrw_wrlock is new to me, but it's virtually certain to be
related.
So I
concluded that if I could keep the 'application'
thread on CPU (or more to the point - on LWP) then I
might improve performance.
I experimented with changing thread scheduling policy
(using sched_setscheduler) but eventually found that
only SCHED_OTHER is supported on Solaris when using
native Solaris threads.Based on your comment that you want to keep the app on
one LWP, I think you are more interested in the scope of
contention than in priority or policy. Scope of contention
is the scope within which the LWP competes for resources.
Threads are not visible to Solaris or the Solaris 2.6 scheduler.
Only LWPs are visible. By using unbound threads, you are
potentially using fewer kernel-scheduled LWPs than user-
created threads. Setting the scope of contention of your app
thread to systemwide rather than its present setting will
allow the thread to contend for resources (CPU time, for
example) directly at a system level. It will make it a bound
thread, which means that your thread (a user-level concept)
will be bound one-to-one with an LWP (an OS-level concept).
Binding the thread to an LWP allows the thread to compete,
through its LWP, for resources.
However, that is not your problem because...
I know from dbx that our application consists of 3
threads. 1 of which is the 'application' thread (where
the application functionality is executed), 1 thread
sits on a signotify wait, another sits on a
condtimedwait....and that means that two of your three threads are just
sitting there and not taking or wasting any resources.
They will just sit quietly until they are allowed to proceed
by getting notified in the case of the first one or by either
having the condition on which it is waiting met or having
the timeout expire in the case of the second one. And
if those two threads aren't taking any time then...
I also experimented with changing thread priority for
the 'application' thread (trying priorities of 120
through to 127, and also a priority of 10 - in case I
had misunderstood the man pages).... adjusting the priority is not going to help because
a higher priority only lets you go ahead of another LWP
with a lower priority that is taking resources that you
want. However, the other LWPs are sitting quietly and
not taking any resources. You can have any priority you
want, high or low, and your results will not change
because priority determines your place in line and you
are the only one in line at the moment.
This has led me to believe that the Quantify figures
produced are a red-herring ?Sounds good to me. Although I have never used Quantify,
the story that Quantify is telling (and that I am able to
judge only second-hand from your retelling thereof) is not
correct, or is at least incomplete.
Can anyone else confirm my findings or has had similar
performance issues that they have now overcome ? (If
so - could you please indicate what the solution is
?)The solution is to get Sun ONE Studio 7 Enterprise Edition
and use Performance Analyzer. Performance Analyzer
will tell you where your time is going in terms of inclusive
or exclusive elapsed wall clock time, CPU time, system
time or user time. On an UltraSPARC-III, it will use the
hardware counters to show you where you are spending
time on cache misses, pipeline stalls, mispredicted
branches, and a dozen other factors. It will attribute the
time to specific methods and even a specific line of
source. It will analyze your code built with compilers from
Sun, gnu, PGI, Fujitsu, and any other. If you have no money
then get the Try-and-Buy and at least take it for a spin on
this problem.
