Unless you've had to work with Oracle's BPEL technology, honey, you don't know what mess is.To be fair, when I worked on BPEL, it was in beta. We were suffering, and
Oracle sent us a "BPEL expert". When we described what we wanted him
to do, he looked at his watch, laughed and said, "Looks like it's going to
be a short workday for me". [...] Three weeks later, he crawled away. Later,
they sent us a very experienced developer. We told him of all the bugs
in BPEL we were having to work around, and he reassured us that
it had been thoroughly tested, and didn't think we had been really finding
bugs on the Oracle side. [...] It wasn't long before I saw him sheepishly
submitting bug reports.
My feeling on Oracle is that there are some things they do well: their
core database stuff. But there trying to deliver the whole application stack,
and they're not that good in other areas. They also make you constantly
chase them as they keep upgrading and rolling out new technologies.
The blame for the whole mess goes to a senior manager, who moved
out of the project before it hit the fan. He agreed to use BPEL because
we were an "oracle shop". Ha! Yes, we used oracle databases, but
we had no experience with other oracle products. We were also sold
a chain a technologies that were never demonstrated to work together,
and it took us months and months to get anything up and running that
demonstrated an end-to-end run of the system.
End of rant. I hated that assignment so badly. I spent most of my time
sitting in the stairwell.

    Tina,
    There's been a change in behaviour with FM11's Find/Change (as you've noticed). The dialog now retains focus after a search has been performed and is modal. However, the focus of the field for ctrl-F should place it in the Text area, regardless of platform, not execute the last operation. This is buggy behaviour and I just confirmed this on my platform (regardless of whether your in Doc A or B).

  • How would you configure your database?

    How would you configure your disks with those specifications?
    General Database Characteristics:
    os is Oracle Enterprise Linux 64 bit

    Local backup. Full database copy, then incremental is the preferred method.
    That way, if a datafile goes bezerk, replace with backup datafile then recover.
    Or if only a few corrupt block, block recover with rman.
    BTW: Backup is done locally first, then send to another server, than on tape.
    Archivelogs is duplexed on another server.

    1) How would you configure it with those specs?
    2) Is there missing info to make a particular decision?

    Here is my reply concerning data separate from index files:
    See http://www.dizwell.com/prod/node/751 for the complete article.
    "Why wouldn't you keep indexes separate from their tables?! Because doing so makes no difference to performance... and I patiently explained that a table and its index are never accessed simultaneously by a single user so that contention between them cannot arise. And yes, in a multi-user system, of course the two could be accessed simultaneously -but so could two tables, or two indexes. "

  • HT4623 How would you update your iPod Touch using your iPod touch?

    I want to update the software on my iPod Touch 4th Generation from my iPod Touch itself. I can't figure out how to do it, though. In the past, it has just asked me to update, but now, it doesn't do that. Anyone with any information on how to update your iPod touch software, it would be greatly appreciated if you shared your knowledge with me. Thanks so much!(:

    See:

    If the iPad already has iOS you can go to Settings>gener>wifi update and update via wifi. Otherwise yu will have to connect to iTunes and update via iTunes.

  • How would you like your G5? well done or over easy?

    I was working on my G5 today, left for a couple of minutes. When I got back, the computer was OFF and there was a SMELL in the air like "Baked Capacitor" or melted plastic. Of course I unplugged everything - next I will take it to the shop. It was not overheated or anything to the touch so I suspect a capacitor (but not certian) how can one prevent this? the machine ran well for about 3 years so I guess I cant complain except that it was out of warranty by only a few months! it was protected by surge protector (which still works fine) so I can't say it was a power surge. In fact Im sending this message via PC which is pluged into the same surge protector that the G5 was.

    Hi M-323,
    I think it would probably be best to have someone look at it before you lay out any cash, just to confirm that it is the power supply and maybe not something cheaper or more expensive to fix.
    Luckily you should be able to find out about that for free if you make an appointment and then take it to your nearest Apple "Genius" , which unluckily for you is some distance away. But if I were you I would make one attempt anyway, that should be all that is required.
    When I took my G5 in to an Apple Store which was also in a large mall, I called ahead to make the appt. and also asked them if they had a cart or something that I could use once I got there. They did, and even though it was still a pain to lug around it made things much easier. These things are awkward and heavy. Afterward they let me use the cart as well to take it to my car. You might want to see about something like this. And because they go by appt. times you'll know when to be there.
    In my opinion, from what I've gathered from these discussion pages, the 3 year mark is a critical time for a G5, so I think in all likelihood something just wore out. I'm hoping, and I have no reason to think otherwise, that your problem involves only your power supply and nothing else. Quite a few people have had their logic boards go a little after 3 years, or their processors. Those are a horrendous expense to fix. With a power supply I'm pretty sure it shouldn't top $300 to replace. Yeah, that's expensive, but a logic board replaced goes for well over a thousand.
    So to sum up, what I would do in your place is to take it in and get it confirmed that it is indeed the power supply and nothing else. I would ask them for their estimate to fix it and then take it home again, unless money is not too much an issue.
    Once I got it home I would go looking for a used power supply on the internet. Used ones can really be as good as new ones, they're not real complicated devices, they work or they don't. Once I found a power supply I would buy it and install it myself or let an Apple Store or Authorized Apple Repairer put it in for me. Probably the latter though I know of many people who've done it themselves.
    Here are just a few places I've found that deal in used Mac parts:
    http://www.mac-pro.com/
    http://www.dvwarehouse.com/Apple-Parts-c-3987_238.html
    http://www.usedmac.com/
    http://www.secondhandmac.com/
    And there are more out there. Plus I bet ebay is a good place to find mac parts too.
    Good luck, M-323. Post back to say how things are going or if you have any other thoughts or questions. Have a good Holiday Season

  • How would you backup your Frame-relay links betweeen sites?

    We have a need to backup or do overflow type routing between sites in the event our frame-relay line goes down or service is degraded. We are exploring several options such a VPN using a access circuit or ISDN. What stategy are you currently and are you happy with thte performance?

    Other than an ISDN as backup you could get a lower CIR frame circuit from another vendor and load balence weighing the load to your primary circuit

  • How would you use Aperture 3 Labels & Flags in your workflow?

    Now that A3 has the ability to use Labels & Flags, I'm trying to incorporate their use into my workflow but am struggling to find the most effective way.
    I've used the star rating for selections & refining the selections. In A2 I used keywords on images to indicate actions on the images, however I never thought this was an elegant solution because unless I forget to remove them they stay with the images as I export them. Fundamentally though I think of Keywords as attributes of the image, so using keywords to describe actions was always strange.
    One thing I liked with this workflow though was I could place multiple "actions" on an image since there can be any number of keywords. In A3 you can only assign one labe at a time. So this made me think of how I'd use Labels.
    So thus my question: how would you incorporate labels & flags into your existing workflows consisting of star ratings & keywords?

    I've wanted flags for a long time just to be able to mark where I left off on a project. My inelegant solution has been to give a terrible picture 5 stars. Other uses are to quickly get back to certain images.
    I don't yet know how exactly I'll use labels or what other uses I'll have for flags, but I'm happy to have the added versatility. Between flags and labels, I have 8 new ways to mark and filter images. (10 if you count no flag and no label.) Sure one can do a lot with stars, stacks and keywords, but now one can do more.
