How to use FC lun as a repository.

Background info
I m using Oracle VM 3.2.2.
# cat /etc/redhat-release
Oracle VM server release 3.2.2
Server pool is having 2 Servers ( With 3 local repositories mounted on them) .
Is there any way i can mount one more FC lun repository on one of VM server in a pool (Storage HP eva 8000.)
I m using oracle generic storage plugin (Couldn't find plugins for HP Eva series )
Query 1 : Is multi-pathing supported on VM Server or We need to do it from manager? How?.
New lun is highlighted in bold.

Query 3 : Not able to add FC lun as new repository.
Repository Name: FCLUN
Repository Location: Physical disk
Physical Disk : (Able to see lun coming from HP storage.)
After clicking next it gives me below error
OVMRU_002030E Cannot create OCFS2 file system with local file server: Local FS OFSMUW-OVS1-ID02. Its server is not in a cluster. [Tue Jan 28 11:30:20 IST 2014]
(Note. server pool is not setup as clustered. due to local repositories )
Is there any workaround?

Can't I use it as local repository?
What steps need to be done if i want to use it as local repository? Shall i remove that server from Server pool and configure it on new Pool?
Basically i want this lun to be presented to VM server to utilize snapshot feature available on HP storage. (Not able to find HP eva storage plugins )

How to use CVS to fetch the repository

hello.
I want to use cvs to fetch some codes from j3d.org.
When I do "cvs -d CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.
j3d.org:/home/cvs/j3d/cvsroot checkout code " in
cvs directory, I get error message "connection refused".
what's wrong ? could some one help me?

Thank you.
however, i still can't connect with server by trying your
kind suggests.
i have too little knowledger of cvs.
i attach a document from j3d.org about downloading the codes. You may get the right way after read it ,i suppose.
please pardon my boring.
From j3d.org
J3D.org CVS Information
This entire site is managed using CVS. It is possible to download everything to your machine to keep up to date. Warning - it's big! As we don't provide a convenient zipped form of the site, this is the only way to fetch it.
Software
If you do not know what CVS is, or you know but don't have any software, then you should pay a visit to the CVS Homepage. CVS allows you to do incrememental updates of files as they become available, as well as rollbacks to earlier versions. Thus, the files that you download from CVS may not always be in a compilable state, but they'll be the latest copy, pretty much whatever the developers are working on at the moment.
Downloading
Anonymous cvs read access can be had by using the following CVSROOT setting:
CVSROOT=:pserver:[email protected]:/home/cvs/j3d/cvsroot
There is no password required. (ie hit enter when asked).
Of course, you need to know what to download once you have logged in. Here is a list of all modules in the system. A few of them are definitely work in progress and not pretty. Buyer beware!
Module Description
code The j3d.org code repository
code_website The code.j3d.org repository website
faq The raw contents of the FAQ. Text and XML files
faq_code Java code used to generate the FAQ
ftp The raw contents of the FTP site
scripts Various scripts used to maintain cvs and the site
setup Raw files, templates etc to get working
website The core pages of the main website (www.j3d.org)
jobs The nacent, yet uncomplete jobs area
ps. my os is Win98.
Your more hints are very valued.

How to use Remote key for linking two repository

Hi,
I have a challenge like not to repeate common tables like Company_code,Currency,Vendor name,customer name across all repositories.
Is there any way I can use 'Remote key' to link different repository.
I can create a Main table with all common attributes required across the repository but want to know how I can connect it to different repository.
For example to get company-code in Vendor table , how can I link Company-code main table(customized) in another repository may be thru 'Remote key'.
Going thru java api route is not prefffered for the sake of simple solution.
Appreciate your help in providing any idea and detail steps for the process.

How to use the repository; uploading reports from DEV to PROD...

Hello...
I'm fairly new to CR-XIr2 (SP3) but have worked with Crystal Reports since v6.0. I'm trying to figure out how to create a dynamic parameter list that someone can select an item from, which will get sent as an input parameter to the SQL Server 2005 stored proc that populates the report. I'm also trying to figure out if there's an easy way to copy reports from a DEV environment into PROD. We have BOE.
Basically, I would like to find out resources online or in books on how to use the BOE repository for dynamic and/or cascading parameters (i.e. pulling a list of text values & their associated IDs from a lookup table that won't be used in the report), images (i.e. corporate logo), etc.. What complicates things for us is that IT is now requiring us to use a DEV environmentit was really easy when we had unlimited access in PROD! We also need to put together a process where reports & other repository objects that are copied from DEV to PROD access the correct db, etc. (Crystal Report in DEV accesses DEV db/repository/etc.when copied to PROD it accesses PROD db/repository/etc.)
Anyway, I'm just looking for info on where to begin--whether it be a book, a BO/SAP knowledge base article, in-class training from a specific company, etc. Thanks!

Hey Markian,
Can you let me know the process you have followed to migrate from Dev to Prod.
We can migrate all the reports and objects and database fields through migrate wizard where you can import all the objects, reports and database fields and users to production enterprise.
Just follow the above scenario and let us know if you are facing any error.
Try publish the reports using import wizard and run it in the crystal designer.
Regards,
Naveen.

How to use Flash Builder for Eclipse Luna ( is it possible??)

How to use Flash Builder for Eclipse Luna ( is it possible??)

Yes. I have Flash Builder 4.6 and 4.7 running in different Eclipse Luna installs.
More details at http://forums.adobe.com/message/4527443
On Mac, I had to have the 32bit version of Luna for 4.6, and the 64bit version of Luna for 4.7 (and I recently started using 4.7 with Eclipse Mars).
For 4.6 you need to first download Eclipse 3.6 and install the Flash Builder 4.6 plugin to that Eclipse install. For 4.7 you need to download Eclipse 3.7 and install the plugin to that Eclipse install. Once it's installed in the 3.x version, you can then copy the fb*.link files from the Eclipse 3.x dropins folders into your Eclipse Luna's dropin folder.
There is an issue where something in Flash Builder 4.7 won't work right when using it as a plugin, not sure but it might be something with building ANEs.

When and Where and how to use Proxies

hi
New to Xi Can anyone explain When and Where and how to use Proxies
Mohit

Proxies: are interfaces which will get executed in the application system.They can be created only in the system from message interfaces using the proxy generation functions.
The biggest advantage of the proxy is that it always by passes the Adapter Engine and will directly interact with the application system and Integration engine - so it will and should give us a better performance.
The literal definition of a proxy is an object / process authorized to act for another; an agent or a substitute. In simpler terms, proxies in the XI context are objects used to encapsulate the creation (from a sender system) or parsing of XML (at a receiver system) as well as the communication with the relevant runtime components required to send or receive those messages. The Proxy Runtime controls these objects / processes, and can itself be controlled by the applications it communicates with.
The Proxy currently has the following components available:
1. ABAP Proxy Communication using XI or Web Services
2. Java Proxy Communication using XI (J2EE)
JAVA Proxies:

Proxies communicate with the XI server by means of native SOAP calls over HTTP .RFC does not, so you have to convert from SOAP to RFC calls and vice versa. So XML conversion is required.
ABAP Proxies uses Webservice and Http Protocols. And if you use RFC it is mainly meant for Sync. call. But Proxies is used for both Sync and Async.
If you use ABAP Proxy , you can reduce the overhead calling the function again and again.

Re: JDBC Sender select/update problem
If u generate proxy for outbound interface then its client proxy and for inbound interface its server proxy.
In client proxy u can call the method to send messages but u can't modify it but in server proxy its possible to write a user code within the method to execute proxy.
CLIENT PROXY:
A WSDL description from a UDDI server (or an Internet page) is usually used to make a service executable in the Internet and to describe the interface of this service. You require a client proxy and not a server proxy to call this service by using the Web service infrastructure.
SERVER PROXY:
You can only generate ABAP server proxies from a WSDL description if they originate in the Integration Repository.You can also generate server proxies for Java and client proxies for ABAP from message interfaces.

How to use CVS with JDeveloper

Hi all!
I'm starting a new project and I would like to know how to use CVS with JDeveloper. This is my first project where I will have two more people working with me and I don't know what the better approach is. Should I use CVS that come with JDeveloper (option Internal to Oracle JDeveloper 10g) or should I configure an external repository? In both cases, I don't know what I have to do to have CVS working properly with JDeveloper. Actually I tried to create a new CVS connection in CVS navigator (using the access method Password Server), but when I test I receive the message: Could not open connection to CVS server: general socket failure, sure I must doing something wrong.
I'm using JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.4
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for you help John!
I installed cvsnt and when I try to create a new CVS connection inside JDeveloper I receive the message: authorization failed: server adminf29786.dixamico.com.br rejected access to /Diversos/DownLoad/CVS/usr/local/cvsroot for user JMartins
I using pserver method and JMartins is my user in windows
There is something that I'm curious about, when I was installing CVSNT I didn't configure any user and password, is there any default user/password?
Thanks!

How to use installed agent?

Hi all,
   EM: 12.1.0.2
   Host: RedHat 6.3 64 bits
   DB: 11.2.0.3
   I have installed successfully the Grid Control 12c on HOST01. I suppose that the installation install all the Grid control 12c binaries and an agent in the host where the repository database is. What i want to know is how to use that installed agent to monitor the repository database? I tried to manually add a target to host HOST01, but an error appears to me saying that an agent is already installed on the machine. How to use that agent to monitor my repository database?
Thanks in advance.

You can discover (add) the repository database target to start monitoring it using the following steps:
- Navigate to Setup > Add Target > Add Targets Manually
- From the Add Targets Manually page, select Add Non-Host Targets Using Guided Process
- From the Target Types drop-down list, select Oracle Database, Listener and Automatic Storage Management
- Click Add Using Guided Discovery
- From the Add Database Instance Target: Specify Host page, select the host where the repository resides, and click Continue
- Follow the process to discover the repository database

How to use OEM grid control to find any database not in archivelog mode?

Hello,
currently we have 130 databases, say, if I want to pick out any database currently NOT in archivelog mode, is there a quick way to find out ?
by using OEM grid control
or
some trick similar,
but really don't need to check each database manually.
thank you very much!

This query works in 12c - please run as SYSMAN.
It is based on undocumented assumptions though +( AND key_value = 'NOARCHIVELOG')+.
SELECT *
FROM SYSMAN.MGMT$GROUP_DERIVED_MEMBERSHIPS O ,
    SYSMAN.MGMT$TARGET T ,
    sysman.MGMT$AVAILABILITY_CURRENT st
WHERE
o.member_target_type     IN ('oracle_database', 'rac_database')
AND ( t.target_type           ='rac_database'
OR (t.target_type             ='oracle_database'
AND t.type_qualifier3        != 'RACINST'))
AND o. member_target_guid     = t.target_guid
AND t.target_guid             = st.target_guid
AND st.availability_status    = 'Target Up'
AND ( EXISTS
    (SELECT *
    FROM sysman.mgmt$metric_current i
    WHERE I.TARGET_GUID = O.MEMBER_TARGET_GUID
    AND metric_name     = 'archFull'
    AND Metric_Column   = 'archTotal'
    AND metric_label    = 'Archive Area'
    AND column_label    = 'Total Archive Area (KB)'
    AND key_value       = 'NOARCHIVELOG'
    ));Another way to achieve the goal is to push extended metrics (SELECT LOG_MODE FROM V$DATABASE) on each DB, and monitor the values they return to the repository. This is an example for a (slightly) different problem - http://iiotzov.wordpress.com/2012/08/08/how-to-use-the-new-oem-12c-metric-extensions-to-enforce-enterprise-wide-custom-policies .
OEM Repository has many other great uses as well - http://iiotzov.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/oem-repository-a-second-look.doc , http://iiotzov.files.wordpress.com/2011/08/iotzov_oem_repository.pdf

How can to get the context of Repository Service?

Hi All,
How can we get the context of Repository Service?
I am able to get the repository service using the below given code.
IRepositoryServiceFactory sf = ResourceFactory.getInstance().getServiceFactory();
IRepositoryService service=sf.getRepositoryService(IRFServiceWrapper.KEY);
But want to know how to get the context of this RepositoryService.
Regards
George

Hi George,
Is this what you're wanting:
IPortalComponentRequest request = (IPortalComponentRequest) this.getRequest();
IUser user = (IUser)request.getUser().getUser();
IResourceContext resourceContext = new ResourceContext(user);
// Get the Service
IRepositoryServiceFactory repServiceFactory = null;
try {
repServiceFactory = ResourceFactory.getInstance().getServiceFactory();
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
if(repServiceFactory == null) {
System.out.println("Repository Service Factory is null!!");
// Check to make sure that the folder that was passed in is valid.
RID folderRID = new RID(startFolder);
try {
IResource resource = ResourceFactory.getInstance().getResource(folderRID, resourceContext);
} catch ( InvalidUriException ie ) {
System.out.println("in the InvalidUriException catch");
ie.printStackTrace();
} catch ( Exception e) {
System.out.println("exception: " + e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
If this isn't what you're looking for, maybe you could tell us what specifically you're trying to do.
Thanks!

How i use Enterprise Services?

Hello @ll experts,
i hope that is the right Forum-Category.
I don't find any description, how is use Enterprise Services with SAP PI for my IT-Scenario.
Actual situation:
I import the XI-Content (there is the Service Interface to use for the ES) in the Enterprise Service Repository (SAP PI 7.1), copied the Service Interfaces and all dependence Objects in my own Software-Compoment.
My Question:
What i should doing to config in my sap ERP ECC 6.0 with the Enterprise Service to connect with SAP PI 7.1?
Maybe ABAP-Proxies?
Thanks in Advance,
best regards
armin

Hello,
Once you build Service Interface in PI, you need to generate PROXY in back end ERP system using SPROXY. After that you need to implement the Proxy Class Method by writing glue code using SE80. Now, you may setup End Point using SOAMANAGER. Please see the link for details: [http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/60cb2b4c-af72-2b10-a3a2-a2f718d2a565]

The easiest way would be to publish your navigation page as a portlet. Then create a page template (or more) for your pages and add your navigation page as a portlet (from the repository).

Oracle VM 3.1.1: Using iSCSI LUN's as Device-Backed Virtual Machine Disks?

Will Oracle VM Manager 3.1.1 support the use of iSCSI LUN's as device-backed virtual machine disks? i.e., Can iSCSI LUN's be treated like directly-attached storage (DAS) and used as virtual machine disks?

user12273962 wrote:
I don't personally use ISCSI. BUT, I don't see why you can't create physical pass through attachments to virtual guests using ISCSI LUNS. It is no different than FC or direct attach storage. Worst case scenerio... you can create a repo on the ISCSI LUN and then create virtual disks.
Oracle VM Getting Started Guide for Release 3.1.1Chapter 7. Create a Storage Repository
A storage repository is where Oracle VM resources may reside... Resources include virtual machines, templates for virtual machine creation, virtual machine assemblies, ISO files (DVD image files), shared virtual disks, and so on. This would have the effect of using file-backed virtual machine disks but at least they'd be centrally-located on shared storage (and, therefore, the virtual machine could run as an HA guest)
budachst wrote:
I have kicked this idea around as well, but I decided do it slightly different, by providing the storage repo via multipathed iSCSI and use iSCSI within my guests if needed for better speed or lower disk latency.
If you want to use iSCSI as the virtual devices for your guests in a clustered server pool, you'd have to grant access to all of your iSCSI targets to any VM server and I was not feeling comfortable with that. I rather grant only the guest directly access to "its" iSCSI target. So I will keep all of my guests system images on the clustered server pool - and additionally also the virtual disks that don't need a high performance and have the really heavy-duty vdisks as separate iSCSI targets.That seems logical, Budy:
<ul>
<li>Use a multipathed iSCSI repository for hosting the virtual machine's disk image, and then;
<li>Utilize iSCSI LUN's for "more performant" parts of the guest's file system (e.g., /var).
</ul>
I'm still puzzled about that image, though. +i.e., the fourth image from the bottom of Chapter 7.7, "Creating a Virtual Machine" ("To add a physical disk:...") where it's clear that the exising "physical" disks are actually iSCSI LUN's that are attached to the OVM server.+
I suppose that I'll have to configure some iSCSI LUN's and try it out to be certain. Just another tool that I don't have +but will need to add to my toolbox+.
