How to tell our licence is valid

Hi,
Situation:
We purchased an application that ran on Oracle 9i a year ago. We paid for both through the application developer. The situation has developed that there is now no contact between the developer and our company. We have no evidence (i.e. licence certificate) that we are using legitimately licensed database software.
My Question:
Is there a way to check with Oracle that licences have been registered to us and that they are still valid?
Thanks in advance for any help.
John.

John, carefully check over the billing paperwork and documentation that came with the new system and look for anything marked as a CSI number. It is possible that your copy of Oracle is legit but that you do not have a support contract. In which case if you have Oracle related problems your avenues for getting help are pretty much limited to comp.databases.oracle.server and .misc, OTN, and other public forums. But if you have a license Oracle will sell you a support contract if you want one.
If it turns out you have no license you can get an idea of what one would cost by visiting the online Oracle store at www.oracle.com/store
If your company and the developer are in legal proceeding then I suggest you ask the legal team to inquire about the license number as part of the proceedings.
Good luck.

  • How can i/adobe tell which licence (student or normal) things are created in?

    How can i/adobe tell which licence (student or normal) things are created in?
    Basically i want to know how i can find out, (in an exported jpg for instance) where it would say it was created in the student edition or in the normal edition. I dont want to put files that would be going against the student licence (which for those of you who dont know you cant create items to sell in a student edition) on the internet to make money.
    I have put i/adobe because if no one can tell what files are created in, and i have the licence for the normal one then it should be okay.
    Hope some of you can help,

    Photoshop CS4- Does anyone know how to tell if two people are using same file?

    Hi,
    Thanks for your response. I'm not the solution in the link.
    The problem that I am having at work it that several people in our department want to be able to update a file, but we want to be sure that no one else is currently editing that file. If someone has the file open, it's helpful to know the user's name so we can talk about when the next person can edit the file. This works in Excel files that we use, and I would love to find out how to do it in Photoshop and Illustrator.
    Thanks for the help!

    hi gurus how to provide the table field validations , plz help me

    Hi,
          Say you need to provide valdiation for WERKS(Plant) field.
    Goto SE11. Find the domain of the field. (Say WERKS in our case.) now goto the domain, click on value range. Now at the bottom you will find the value table. Note this table (T001W).
    In your report, at selection screen, you need to validate the field against this table. like this
    At selection-screen,
    select single werks from T001W where werks = p_werks.

  • How long is my auth token valid?

    In php when I call $session->getAuthenticationToken, I get an authentication token returned to me.   How long is that auth token valid for?
    I ask because I was reading the docs on webcamPublisher and under connectSession it says: "re-sessioning of components is not supported.".  So if my session expires and I want to connect again then in addition to creating a new session I also need to destroy my old webcamPublisher and create a new one.   Am I understanding that correctly?
    Thank you,
    Eric

    A room session ends a few minutes after all users have left.
    Currently there is no way to make the duration of a token, but you can invalidate the session by calling AccountManager.invalidateSession(session).
    Note that invalidating the session doesn't stop users that are already in a room, only users entering or re-entering the room.
    I think we should really provide a "stop room" method, that kicks all users out of the room and invalidate the session. It's in our todo list but not too hight in priority right now.

  • Azure Storage - How to tell what vhd is attached to what?

    On our storage account in our vhd container we have vhd blobs. The issue is that it looks like some where renamed from what I manually named to them to some incomprehensible name. I'm not sure when this took place but sometime in the last month. So I now
    have no idea what base OS vhd goes where.
    How can tell which vhd is attached to which VM?
    How do I rename these VHD's without taking down the server?
    How can I find out which ones are not being used? It looks like 2 vhd's (30GB) haven't been modified for a month but how do I actually know they are not being attached to anything and being used? (Note: we only have vhd's no other blobs.)
    How do I get Azure to stop renaming the blobs to some meaningless name?
    Thanks,
    Chris

    How can tell which vhd is attached to which VM?
    Since a VHD is essentially a page blob and is stored as a disk (OS disk or Data disk), you can list all disks and the result will include the URL of the blob. If you're using
    Windows Azure PowerShell Cmdlets, you can find this information by executing Get-AzureDisk cmdlet. Also see this link for more details:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/jj157176.aspx
    How do I rename these VHD's without taking down the server?
    I don't think you can do that. Again because these VHDs are page blobs and blob storage do not support "Rename" operation natively, you would need to copy the VHD first and once the copy is complete, you can delete the original one.
    How can I find out which ones are not being used? It looks like 2 vhd's (30GB) haven't been modified for a month but how do I actually know they are not being attached to anything and being used? (Note: we only have vhd's no other blobs.)
    When a VHD is attached to a VM, Windows Azure puts a lock (lease) on the blob holding the VHD. Easiest way for you to check is by listing the blobs in that container and find out which blob has active lease on it. Other way obviously is to get all disks
    and get the URLs and comparing them with all blobs in that container.
    How do I get Azure to stop renaming the blobs to some meaningless name?
    Not sure what you mean. Could you please explain?
    Hope this helps.

  • How to tell Apple  to stop harrasing users to update to the new iWork

    I am reposting my reply in one of the discussions on iWork here as a new thread, hoping to get more direct help with my renewed concerns about iWork update.
    We all have our own field of profession, our own workload and deadlines to meet.... I don't think it's ethical for Apple to dump that responsibility to users.
    It's Apple's responsibility to make sure their updates don't leave out the features that users of the old version had invested their precious time / money in -- especially if Apple relentlessly pushes users to upgrade 
    It's been **** ever since my upgrade to new iWork. Long story short, I was back to iwork 9, after many trips to apple store, many hours reading and trying out various suggestions from forum discussion,  and much headaches and loss of productivity....
    After all that, you think Apple would leave you alone?  No. Last week, I could not open my files that I need for my work beause an automatic update was running for me DESPITE the fact that a genious bar guy helped to make sure No AUTOMATIC UPDATE is selected in my system preference.
    Now, I am back again with iWork 09, I want to keep it that way until Apple comes up with a sensible/responsible iWork update ...
    But I am worried that the new version will be back on me, causing disruption again  ... because I still see everyday Apple's notification urging me to update.
    Please help me find out: How to tell Apple  to stop harrasing users to update to their new iWork ?
    How to hold Apple accountable ?
    Your attention and suggestion is greatly appreciated.

    Peter,
    Thank you for your response. I know what you meant, and don't disagree with most of you said. Just wanted to avoid sending conflicting info to Razor06, I thought I'd make the following kind of counter points:
    I am doing fine with my old Pages now, but not after frustrating weeks caught in between the 2 versions of Pages... In my experience, when both versions of Pages were running in my hard drive, the New version overtook the task every time... I could not get out of the trap until after I moved the New version to an external drive.
    I used the word 'corrupted' facetiously to refer to the files that were opened by the New version
    You were right: no need to re-save the old files that are not touched by the new version.... I said the same thing, but perhaps not as clearly ...
    Apple does send me update notifications from time to time, because I only turned off the Auto Update. I did not turn off the Auto Check because I thought I still need it.
    Totally see your points, no disagreement here:
             " Just get this straight:
                    There are old files and software, and new files and software.
                    The old can't open the new. "
    Thanks again !

    Hi Thiru,
    Standard Transaction Codes, have their own Function Modules for generating Outbound/Indbound Idocs. Where these Function Modules will be configured to a particular Process Codes.
    For E.g for PO's
    Process code : ME10 - IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDERS - for creation
    In case if its a Z Function Module, It depends on the case how you use IDOC types. either directly through Z Program or through Inbound/Outbound Process  codes with respective Function modules.

    How to tell embedded jinitator applet is still running when window closed
    Hi,
    We run an oracle 10g forms application through 9iAS over an intranet. All users are running windows 2000 professional.
    We run separate frame = true but I would like to switch to separate frame = false
    With separate frame = true if the user clicks the outer windows "X" close button (forms mdi window) the user is prompted to save changes before the application ends.
    BUT
    when using separate frame = false
    If the user clicks the upper window "X" button (no longer form mdi window but regular browser window) the window and application is abruptly closed.
    I'm interested in using a onbeforeunload function to confirm if the user wants to close the window. This would be placed in the basejini.htm file. This could always ask if the user wants to exit or not. If they click OK then the window closes but if they click "Cancel" you are returned to the forms application exactly where you left. something like event.returnvalue="do you really want to exit?";
    However if the user exited using the normal exit form method then the applet is already closed before the onbeforeunoad event fires and there is nothing to go back to and I want the window to close automatically. This is accomplished using close.html file in post forms trigger.
    So what I want and what I think many may also want is the check if the embedded applet is still running and if so prompt the user to return to the application or continue to close. Of course If the applet is no longer running then just close because there is no reason confirm closing anymore.
    Does anyone have a html/JavaScript solution that can be placed in the jinitiator.htm file? or similar?
    Thank you

    I don't know if this is exactly what you are after but you can add the following to the top of your basejini.htm file and it should prompt the user before exiting the IE window.
    <BODY %HTMLbodyAttrs%>
    %HTMLbeforeForm%
    <SCRIPT>
    <!--
    window.onbeforeunload = unloadApplet;
    function unloadApplet(){

    Note.115905.1 How to Close Browser Window When Closing Webforms Applet
    Kind Regards,

    Subject: Re : How to tell embedded jinitator applet is still running when window closed
    Thank you for your reply and yes you did not understand my question fully.
    Sorry if this is a long reply
    I am able to close the browser window using information in notes 115905.1 and 201481.1, this is not the issue. We implemented this several years ago. It is workable for both separate frame = true or false.
    It is most important to not allow the user to end their forms application by closing the windows browser, they must close using normal form exit commands.
    What I want is to have separate frame = false, the big drawback to this option is the user can exit the application and bypass all forms code by pressing the windows "X" close button. This is why we need the code as just provided by Andrew Lenton above in this thread.
    BUT Andrew's code will always prompt the user before closing the window and I do not want that. I want the user to be prompted only under scenario 2 listed below.
    Here's the 2 case scenario for exiting the application.
    1. If the user closes properly and uses exit form which fires all normal form triggers including post_form with it's call to close.html file.
    All uncommitted changes are saved or rollback and the users session is ended normally both on the database and in the application server.
    All browser windows will close, great all is good. And without Andrew's code the window will close but with Andrew's code the user will be prompted to close or not, if they select Cancel the window will remain but the applet has already ended so why prompt? ...This is what I want to avoid.
    2. In the forms app. if the user clicks the windows "X" close button with uncommitted changes. The browser just closes the changes are rollback without prompting the user to save. The users sessions are now lost and still running in the database and application server until they are timed out.
    If I use Andrew's code then the user will be prompted to continue to close or go back, if they click Cancel to go back then focus returns to the forms application and the user can continue to work. If the user clicks OK then the window closes and unfortunately their sessions are still lost until timed out.
    So what I desire is to add to Andrew's code to check if the embedded applet is still running and prompt the user to close or not accordingly.
    Something like:
    Basejini.htm like
    </HEAD>
    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
    function maximizeWindow()
    window.moveTo(0,0);
    window.resizeTo(screen.availWidth,screen.availHeight);
    function confirm(){
    If(document.embeddedapplet.closed())
    Win.opener = self;
    win.close();
    Else if
    event.returnValue = "Closing Forms Application. OK to continue?";
    </SCRIPT>
    <BODY %HTMLbodyAttrs%, onload="maximizeWindow()", onbeforeunload="confirm()">
    %HTMLbeforeForm%
    I hope this explains my requirements.

    I'm sorry this is not helpful at all.
    Note 199928.1 is only an alert which does not stop the closing of the window and still displays as an alert if the user does close properly using exit form ... so why would you want to display the alert then?

    Closing thread.
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    I had the same issue last year - wanting to provide a warning on closing the browser, but only if the Forms session is still running. The approach I took is described below, see also the thread where I originally posted this at Closing brower window
    Hi there,I've had a similar requirement - or rather, the two conflicting requirements: to warn when the browser is being closed, but for the app to be able to close the browser without a warning being fired.
    To always provide a warning when someone (the user or the Forms app) tries to go to a different page (e.g. your close.htm), use Javascript like:
    function confirmExit(){
    if(appletRunning==true) {
    msg="Closing this window or navigating to another page will end your SomeGreatApp session.";
    window.event.returnValue=msg;
    And make a call to confirmExit() in the onBeforeUnload event of your main page.
    You'll notice I first check an 'appletRunning' variable before displaying the warning. This Javascript variable is set to true by my app when it starts up, using an embedded Javabean that calls out to Javascript. Once that variable is set to true, then the warning will be displayed if the user tries to shut the browser by clicking on the 'x' button, or to go to a different URL.
    When my app is shutting down, it uses the same Javabean to set appletRunning back to false. It then navigates to a close.htm - which will be done without a warning being displayed.
    See Re: How can a Javabean call Javascript function of the basejpi.html?? for example code on how to call Javascript from a bean embedded in your Forms app.
    Hope these ideas help you out, it's worked for me (so far, anyway!!)

  • How to tell N6.5 DHCP to use a W2k8 for PXE?

    Hello,
    could anyone give me a hint, how to tell my netware DHCP to use a Windows Server 2008 R2 running Acronis with PXE Server?
    Actual Situation:
    Netware 6.5 Sp8 Server with ZENWORKS in Cluster mode
    Netware DHCP Server
    ZEN7 SP1 Imaging
    --> works fine so far, and no problem in other subnets, IP-helper are configured in the switches
    New Situation:
    Netware 6.5 Sp8 Server with ZENWORKS in Cluster mode
    Netware DHCP Server
    Windows Server 2008 R2 running Acronis Snap Deploy with PXE-Server - in future may be a clean Windows Deployment service without Acronis
    --> that would be nice :)
    I found serveral ini-files (dts.ini, pdhcp.ini, tftp.ini) where I configured the new IP-Address of the W2k8 PXE Server.
    Now:
    The Client gets its correct IP-Address from Netware DHCP
    but after that the following messages:
    Auto-select:
    ZENworks Boot
    Boot Server IP: --.--.--.-- (the correct one configured in the ini-files!)
    TFTP.
    PXE-T02:
    PXE-E3C: TFTP Error - Access Violation
    PXE-M0F: Exiting Intel Boot Agent
    Any ideas?
    Thanks a lot.

This option should only be set if both DHCP and PXE services are on the same server (as is probably the case in your situation as I'm guessing both DHCP as also PXE get loaded in the same cluster resource script).
    For subnets serviced outside of the subnet your DHCP server is running in, you will need to configure multiple ip helpers: one that points to the DHCP server and one points to the PXE server so those requests on other subnets get serviced correctly.
    To get things running it's probably easier to try to get this to work on the subnet your DHCP and PXE server are running in (so you are not also having to deal with the ip helper setup just yet). If that works, then expand you configuration to different subnets & ip helpers.
    Hope that helps,
    Willem
    As a ps and for clarification, don't load the PDHCP on any of the NetWare servers... just have the PXE PDHCP service running on the Windows server.
    The PDHCP/PXE service for ZenWorks won't understand/work with the Arconis one and visa versa.
