How to set global parameters? (Best Practice?)

Dear all,
I've experience with Infor Performance Management tools, Qlikview and also SAP Business Objects Reporting. As for last week i'm new to Microsoft Reporting Services. In our current environemnt we're setting up a Report Structure on top of an Analysis Service
Cube.
Currently I'm creating various reports (which works fine) on the mentioned Analysis Service Cube.
My current question is, if there is a best practice to create reports with global variables? We'll have a package of ~20 reports which all relate to the same data source. My approach is that i'll define the reports, but the global parameters like "Current
year", "Last year" etc. should be defined on a global page. That's the way I would have done it in the other BI tools.
How is this done best in MS Reporting Services? Should i add an additional flat SQL server source and put the values in some ref tables? Or script the global parameter?

Hi Praveen G,
this blog was one of the sources I already found.
I was searching for the "official" way to set the default-workbook - without manipulating the tables programmaticaly (and possibly inconsistant).
Best regards,
Marco

How to set query parameters to i5Grid

Hello Everyone,
I am working on creating i5Charts.
I mapped query template and display template to i5Chart template but I need to pass the query parameters dynamically.
How to set query parameters to i5Grid?
Pls help with syntax.
Thanks.
Regards,
Minakshi

Hi Minakshi,
Yes you can try the first 2 options listed by Rohit, the 3rd one however is not supported.
The below syntax should work for you:
1. gridObject.getQueryObject().setRowCount(<Value>);
2. gridObject.getQueryObject().setParameter("RowCount", <Value>);
You can check the documentation at the following link:
http|s://<host>:<port>/XMII/JSDOC/i5ChartAllClasses.html
You could also use the script assistant to check for the JS methods.

Code Set pattern or best practice?

Hi all,
I have what I would have thought to be a common problem: the best way to model and implement an organization's code sets. I've Googled, and I've forumed - without success.
The problem domain is this: I'm redeveloping an existing application, which currently represents it's vast array of code sets using a seperate table for each set. There are currently 180+ of these tables. Not a very elegant approach at present. The majority of these code sets are what I would class as "simple" - a numeric value associated with a textual description - eg 1 = male, 2 = female, or 1 "drinks excessively", 2 "drinks sometimes" ... etc. Most of these will just be used to associate a value with a combo box selected value.
There are also what I would class as "complex" code sets, which may have 1..n attributes (ie not just a numeric and text value pair). An example of this (not overly complex) is zip code, which has a unique identifier, the zip code itself (which may change - hence the id), a locality description, and a state value.
Is there a "best practice" approach or pattern which outlines the most efficient way of implementing such code sets? I need to consider performance vs the ability to update the code set values, as some of them may change from time to time without notice at the discretion of government departments.
I had considered hard coding, creating classes to represent each one, holding them in xml files, storing in the database etc, but it would seem that making the structure generic enough to cater to varying numbers of attributes and their associated datatypes will be at the cost of performance.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Paul C.

Hi Saish,
Thanks for your response. Yes, this approach is what
I had considered - I'll be using Hibernate so these
values will be cached etc.
I guess my main concern is reducing the huge number
of very small tables in use. I was thinking about
this some more, and for the simple tables was
thinking of 2 tables: 1 (eg "CODE_SET") to describe
the code set (or ref table etc) in question, the
second to hold the values. This way 80 odd tables
would be reduced to 2. Not sure what's best here -
simpler ER diagram or more performance!Tables...
Enumeration
- EnumerationId
- EnumerationName
- EnumerationAbbreviation
EnumerationValues
- EnumerationId
- ValueIndex
- ValueName
- ValueAbbreviation
The above allows the names to change.
You can add a delete flag if values might be deleted but old records need to be maintianed.
Convention: In the above I specifically name the second table with a plural because it holds a collection of sets (plural) rather than a single set.
In the first table the id is the key. In the second the id and the index are the key. The ids are unique (of course). The enumeration name should be unique in the first table. In the second table the EnumerationId and value name should be unique.
Conversely you might choose to base uniqueness on the abbreviation rather than the name.
The Name vs Abbreviation are used for reporting/display purposes (long name versus short name).
It is likely that for display/report purposes you will have to deal with each of the sets uniquely rather than a group. Ideally (strongly urged) you should create something that autogenerates a java enumeration (specific with 1.5 or general with 1.4) that uses the id values and perhaps the indexes as the values and the names are generated from the abbreviations. This should also generate the database load table for the values. Obviously going forward care must be taken in how this is modified.

SQ01 (How to set Global Area as default)

Hi All
In SQ01, i find 2 environments in Query Areas - Global Area & Standard Area. Everytime i execute SQ01 transaction, it takes me to Standard Area, then i have to change it to Global Area & then select the user group. I would like to know how i can set Global Area as default & also a particular user group, so that everytime i run SQ01, it directly takes me to Global Area & the particular user group, so i can execute my query directly instead of having to change it each time.
Hope my problem is clear, await inputs.
Vivek

Hello Vivek,
You need to maintian some default parameters in your User master record.
Parameter ID :
AQB for User Group
AQW for Query Area.
Select the AQB from the drop-down and give your default user group in the parameter value.

MBAM and BitLocker - How to do it in Best Practice

Hi!
I have a situation where I want to implement MBAM in our environment. What I have at the moment:
1x all-in-one MBAM server (SQL 2012R2 Standard at the same server).
SCCM 2012R2 CU3 Integration
GPO´s are ready and published to the correct OU (Laptops)
MBAM Client is in SCCM and tested - Working great. Not published yet cause we are in pilot at the moment
MBAM is working fine and all recovery keys are stored in DB.
My question is - How to deploy MBAM to old computers that are allready in use - The correct way to do it so that recovery keys and TPM recovery password are all stored in MBAM DB? I mean I know how to set MBAM correctly up while using SCCM and TS but I can´t
get it to work in old computers - TPM passwords are not presented. MBAM Client can´t take ownership of TPM cause Windows has allready done that.
I was able to get TPM password to MBAM DB if I disable Auto-provisioning and Clearing the TPM
$tpm=get-wmiobject -class Win32_Tpm -namespace root\cimv2\security\microsofttpm
$tpm.DisableAutoProvisioning()
$tpm. SetPhysicalPresenceRequest(22)
then running MBAM wizard (for the first time!). But how to make it fully automatic so that all computers that are in use will be like that? Do I have to make a script to disable auto-provisioning and then restart and start MBAM or is there any other solution
for that?
Best Regards,
Taavi

Are you using MDT/SCCM for deployment?
Can you take a procmon while running the command and then see what all registries it is touching? you can then modify the install.wim of your MDT/SCCM deployment share and add those registry keys there. It depends on hardware to hardware, following registry
keys worked for me once. by the same way;
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\WimRegistry\ControlSet001\Services\TPM\WMI]
"NoAutoProvision"=dword:00000001
"NoDisableOwnerClear"=dword:00000001

Hi. A JDBC connection pool is a set of identical, interchangeable, pre-made
connections, and the controls to make sure only one user uses a particular
connection at any one time. If you want to have different DBMS users, you can
have a separate pool for each DBMS user, which may contain as many or few
connections as you want. Some applications has a pool for the accounting
applications, and another for the sales applications etc. Some do have a
separate pool for john, jane, joe etc, each with one connection. Pools
can be created and destroyed dynamically using the dynamic pool API.

Scenario runtime parameters best practices

Hi,
I have a scenario which uses dynamic input values. Iam trying to understand what is best practice to initialise input configuration values considering the scenario is automatic.
(something like configuration initialisation parameters)
Option in my mind
1. variables (which can be passed at runtime however have to be input manually)
2. Flexfields (sounds a good idea but not sure if i migrate across environments flexfields will also be migrated?)
3. Procedure Options ( can the procedure options be changed at runtime?)
please let me know your suggestions.

Hi John,
I think it's best if you use a variable, and refresh that variable from a database query at runtime.
You can setup a lookup/config table which has key/value pairs, the key being the variable name, the value being the config value you need to use.
The developers guide has info on refreshing variables.
You can then change the config in your DB table when you need to.
Cheers.

Setting up Users - Best Practices

03/28/2007 11:53:42 AM
Reply | Quote | Top | Bottom
Hi there. We are a large organization with a website
consisting of over 40,000 pages. We have multiple users who need
access to various parts of the website. We have discovered
different methods of setting them up in Contribute but wonder if
one method is better than the others.
1. Create a separate new connection for each portion of the
site. This, unfortunately, makes it impossible to share CSS layout
files, images, and library items at the root of the website.
2. Create a single connection to the server and create
mutliple roles - most likely named by the user's name - that limits
directory access. Worried this might create an unwieldly list of
users. This opens up shared assets, though, which will help with
maintaining site standards.
We also tried creating a single connection to the server and
creating new roles - named according to which directory was being
given access to - but quickly discovered that a user can only be
assigned to one role.
Has anyone else run across this?
Thanks.

Well, I definitely think that if you're going to maintain any
level of sanity to your web file organization, you'll have to set
up roles according to logical groupings and then assign folks to
those roles. I would not mess with creating a variety of
connections because that could easily turn into an authentication
nightmare. Stick to one encrypted connection.
The nature of your business organization should dictate how
those role groups are created, for example a role for HR, Finance
or Sales with a corresponding folder on the site. But it might be
possible to do the opposite and create roles based on how your
website is organized. For example, you might have a "Sales" section
on your web site that folks from different departments need to have
edit access to, and another section on your site that deals with
"Administration" that may necessitate adding folks from, again,
different departments within the organization. This is a bit
opposite of the normal routine of setting up role groups based on
the groups that already exist in the organization (HR, Finance,
Sales, etc.).
For us, it was fairly easy to create the groups because we're
a school system and the site is organized by school sites.
It would be great if folks could be assigned to multiple
roles, but it could get messy with the "cascading" of permissions
(i.e. permissions in this role but NOT in that role, however the
second role is a sub-group of role one....see what I mean?).
In the end, you may just need to graph out the type of
organization you need in order to meet the needs of the site and/or
organization. Then replicate that in how you set up roles in CPS.
Hope this helps!

How to set global transactions for XA.

Hello,
I have configured 9i RAC active/active database into a active/passive.
The users were not able to connect using XA drivers.
I have run the xaview.sql script as sys in @O_H/rdbms/admin and granted select privs as below.
grant select on v$xatrans$ to public;
grant select on pending_trans$ to public;
grant select on dba_2pc_pending to public;
grant select on dba_pending_transactions to public;
Still users are not able to connect to the databases using XA drivers.
What is needed more to be set up on the database side?
Can any one let me know the detailed method to set global transactions(that is what I was told needs to be set up) on the oracle database.
Thanks
SKH

Further to give more info the error users are facing is
Could not connect to 'oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource'.
