Ideas on adding licenses to a 8.X Communications Manager cluster before upgrade to v10.

Hi, hope is all well. This is something I started working with my global Cisco reseller but it takes sometime I wanted to make sure I see different options if possible to present. My company has deployments of collaboration products mainly on v8.x (all three main 8.0.2, 8.5.1 and 8.6.2) going to v10 during this year. Some already run on UCS but some are on MCS and will be late in migration. For those late, there are some growth need in end user/phone deployment but since v8 is end of sale, my provider may not be able to sell licenses.
If this is true, they might offer to buy v10 licenses with software subscription just like new deployment, which is not too bad at all since we will use this added amount on future v10 upgrade, but has anyone ever did that? I am afraid we use v10 PAK (if possible) to generate v8 license file, will render it not upgradable later. Reasoning is, let's say there is 1000 licenses on v8 with UCSS and we buy 15 v10 licenses downgraded to v8. Once we processo v8 to v10 upgrade on PUT, Cisco might see only 1000 original v8 liceses to provide upgrade instead of 1015.
Does it make sense or am I missing something here? Thank you very much for any suggestions.

UCSS and CUCM 8.X licenses have both been EoL. Even the existing UCSS+ ESW has been converted to SWSS.

Run out of licenses, can do 20 reports in 20 minutes before receiving error

I have a problem with running out of Licenses when using our ASP.NET Web Application.Our Web Application exports and opens a Crystal Report to PDF when the user clicks on the report link. Unfortunately we have only a certain number of licenses available and after each use it's useless for about 20 minutes! In a 20 minute period we are able to run up to 20 reports before getting the "out of licenses" error page. So if you have 5 users going through multiple reports in a short time we've run out of licenses and they have to wait 20 minutes before trying again!?! I am trying to find a means of improving this and have a few thoughts on how:<ol><li>Close the license being used (and make available to somebody else) once the report is created. We generally do not have 20 concurrent users at any time but in a 20 minute time span we can have over 20 report requests. </li><li>Shorten the time before the license becomes available again (like to 5 minutes) Long enough for even the larger reports to run, but short enough that the chances of 20 reports being requested in a 5 minute period is slim. </li><li>Save the License use for that particular USER for the period of time (so if they open 1 or 10 reports it all utilizes the same License). This would work fine because it's a small office of just over 20 users and the chance of everybody accessing reports in that same 20 minutes is very low. </li></ol> If anybody has any ideas, suggestions, hints, or "it can't be done" I would greatly appreciate it! We haven't found anything in the RAS settings and I haven't found anything that effects the LICENSING in .NET (and using Report.Close() does not free up the license). Thanks,~Drew 

Alright, I seem to have some success in fixing this issue, though it isn't the 100% best solution. I create the ReportDocument in the Global.asax.vb file 
<blockquote />Dim crpt As New CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.ReportDocument Session.Contents.Add("crpt", crpt)</blockquote>and then I re-use this in the page that exports the file to PDF and displays it. Since this is created as a session-level object in Global.asax.vb I reference it in the display page as Session("crpt") and I clean it up by the end of the page but I don't make the session object into nothing.<blockquote>If Not IsNothing(Session("crpt")) Then<blockquote>Session("crpt").Close() System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(Session("crpt"))</blockquote>End If </blockquote>Then on Session End in the Global.asax.vb I clean up the Session variable and call the garbage collection.<blockquote>If Not IsNothing(Session("crpt")) Then<blockquote>Session("crpt").Close() System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(Session("crpt")) Session("crpt") = Nothing Session("crpt").Dispose()</blockquote>End If GC.Collect() </blockquote>It seems to be working at this time though there is the limitation that now everybody who enters the web application gets an object whether or not they are going to run reports. The more ideal situation would be for the object to not be created until the user enters the report page or have the page that creates/displays the report to check if the object exists and if it does not to create the object.

Hi David,
You need to download CS6 Photoshop and enter the serial number for CS6 Photoshop and then you would be prompted to enter the serial number for qualifying product.
Enter the CS5 serial number in order to install and activate CS5 Photoshop on your machine.
Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

Howto license the Java ES or Communication Suite

Hi at all,
i hope someone can answer my question.
Do i have to get Licenses for running the Java Communication Suite in production envoirement ?
Understanding the Sun Licensing model is harder than setting up their software.
thanks for answers,
Matze
PS: Sorry for my bad english

Sorry for the delayed response.
The answer is no. You do not need a license to use the software in a production environment. Once you need assurance and support, Sun offers licensing and support plans for purchase.

I am unable to access my mail on my IMac after adding another email account. Somehow I manage to knock myself out of the Telus acct that I had recently migrated to my IMac. Any idea of how I can reconnect to my Telus acct?

Hi
I am having trouble accessing my IMac mail after I added another mail account to my list of email accts. I had migrated my outlook acct. from my PC to my IMac and when I went back to use my password it wouldn't let me in. Any ideas of what I should do?

Adding another account would not affect one that you already had. Either the password is wrong, or the server is coincidentally rejecting your credentials for some reason, or you did something different.

Ideas for Adding a Quick Print Button to VA01 Overview Screen

Problem Statement:
Our users would like a "quick print" button on the VA01/VA02 application toolbar that immediately spools the Order Confirmation output to the printer. Our users want to print the output on demand, i.e., they do not want the output to automatically be printed when the order is created because a printout is not always needed. We already have condition records created with Dispatch Time set to 3 - Send with application own transaction. However, it takes 7 or more clicks to print the output on demand by navigating the menu (Extras > Output > Edit...Further Data...etc.) and changing the Dispatch Time to 4 - Send immediately when saving. This is a big ergonomic issue and a time killer.
Although the number of clicks to print are less when printing the output from the VA02 initial screen (via menu Sales document > Issue Output To), this is not acceptable when creating new orders. Really need an on-demand, quick print button on the VA01 screen. As an aside, we have a totally custom transaction for preparing sales order data (shopping cart-like way of finding materials and entering required data) that then calls VA01 and fills in all of the information. When saving in VA01, the user is returned to our Z-transaction so asking the user to subsequently run VA02 to print is not practical.
Current Output Determination:
We have custom output type ZBS0 (copy of BS0). Condition records for print medium are set to Dispatch Time = 3.
Questions:
1. Searching these forums, it appears custom code (extension or user exit?) can be written to call RSNAST00, or something similar, to automatically send output having a Dispatch Time = 3. Where can I find more information on exactly how to do this?
2. Do transactions VA01 and VA02 (Overview screens) have extensions that allow a print button to be added to the application toolbar? We would want to call the custom printing code from the button to send the output.
Any feedback on how others have solved this problem would be greatly appreciated.
Warm Regards,
Rob
P.S. Using GuiXT is not an option for us.

HI
We had similar issues with printing packing list and picking list by the warehouse people.
We created a new ztransaction with input fields of delivery number, output type, number of copies and a check box for repeat output(in case if the output was already printed).
You can also create a new Z-transaction with input fields of Sales order number(mandatory field), output type (Default it with value of ZBS0), number of copies (default it with 1) and a check box. On executing the transaction You can provide a message if the output was already printed so that the user can select the check box to repeat the output and execute. You can also print multiple SO by giving a range value if required.
If you do not want the user to enter the new ztransaction every time, try providing a menu path to the new z-transaction from the existing z-transaction which you are using for order entry.
Hope this helps you.
Thanks,
Arun.S

Ideas for Adding a "One Click" Print Button to VA01 Overview Screen

I am not an ABAP developer and am doing some preliminary functional investigation to determine the best way to add a simple "one-click" button that allows a Sales Order Confirmation output to be sent to the printer.
Can someone that really knows, tell me whether or not a custom menu item can be added to VA01 and VA02?
I have seen lots of threads telling folks how to find user exits and menu exits for a program so I don't need that advice. Rather, looking for someone who has already investigated this for VA01 and VA02 and knows the answer.

Add a Print Icon to the application toolbar as described above. From the button, write custom code that calls RSNAST00 (or is there a better way?) to send the output to the printer.
Any feedback on how others have solved this problem would be greatly appreciated.

Still looking for input from anyone that has had experience trying to add a menu item or toolbar button to VA01. In our case, for sending output.
Madhu,
Please again read my Problem Statement in my original posting for the business requirement. We are using ECC 6.0. Yes, I know that transaction VA02 has Sales Document > "Issue Output To" that allows you to print. However, we want to be able to print from the VA01 Overview screen after all of the sales order information has been entered. We would like to be able to click a print button which would save the new sales order and immediately issue the output. Again, we do not want the output to automatically print for every new sales order - we want to be able to print only when needed. The conditions that a sales person would use to decide to print a copy are too numerous or varied so they cannot be automated in a condition record. Of course we do use condition records for creating the output but we do not send immediately on save.
When creating a sales order, the sales person does not want to do the extra clicks and key strokes to then navigate or open a new VA02 session to print from the VA02 initial screen. And as described in my original posting, it is a lot of clicks navigate the VA01 Extras > Output menu to change the output to print on save.
If you observe the "day in the life" of a sales person and see all of the key strokes and clicking required to create an ECC 6.0 sales order, you understand why the extra 7 to 11 clicks to just print an output is very annoying. We have created a totally custom Z-transaction that allows our sales folks to capture everything need for a new sales order all on one screen with no tab views. We then launch VA01 to fill in all of the data entered in our custom transaction. This all works very well and is a huge time saver for our sales staff. Now we are looking to save a few more clicks by simplifying the printing.

Adding Licenses for Office 365 Pro Plus and Power BI

Hello. I have one license for Office 365 Pro Plus and one Power BI license. I want to buy another Power BI license to assign to a prospective client so he can log on to my Power BI site and view Power Pivot reports in the browser. I think that I need to
purchase an additional Office 365 Pro Plus license ($12/mo) as well as an additional Power BI license ($40/mo). Is this correct?
My other question has to do with what I believe is referred to as my Organizational account. I have one for Office 365 and a different one for Power BI. That is, my logins are different for the two subscriptions. I'm not sure how this happened or even if
it's important. I have had no issues installing Office 365 on my desktop, laptop and tablet and I can upload files to my Power BI site and access them. Does it matter that my organizational accounts are different?
Finally, if I have it correct in paragraph 1 that I need an additional license for both Office 365 Pro Plus and Power BI, do I just login to the two separate organizational accounts and add a license to each one?
Thank you.
Regards
Arthur

Hi Guy. I went ahead and purchased both licenses. The Office 365 is only $12/mo so it's not a big deal.
After getting that great information from you on the other post, I contacted Microsoft support and got this issue straightened out. I did have two accounts (domains). They had me cancel my Office 365 subscriptions on the account that I purchased those subcriptions
on and then resubcribed to Office 365 on the Power BI account.
Thanks again for all of your help.

Ideas about adding scorm capabilities to Indesign

Hello,
I'm using to deliver my content in 2 methods:
1. Adobe captivate for e-learning courses
2. Adobe indesign for books
Those 2 methods share great part of the content.
Indesign well supported to work with database content, which mean i can change my content from database and the data spread out to any book this piece of content deliver to.
With adobe captivate it impossible, the only way is maybe via XML, but the xml is not order by slides and I can't see logical order there.
after i read pipwerks.com article about add scorn to swf/html, I thought about using indesign for courses as well, and maybe use some solution to add scorn capabilities to indesign. http://pipwerks.com/2008/05/08/adding-scorm-code-to-an-html-file/
I would appreciate every advice/tip you guys might give me.

Adding license to an ISE secondary admin node

We have an ISE cluster with the license installed only on the primary admin node (generated on its UDI).
If we later have to promote the secondary admin node to be the new primary admin node (for some reson), then we need to have a valid license on that node generated with its UDI, right?
Is it possible to install the secondary admin UDI license from the primary admin node or do we have to deregister the secondary admin node from the cluster and then install the license on that node in standalone mode ?

You could also re-host the license to the new (promoted) node. The steps are detailed here:

Adding License from command prompt .

Dear Guru ,
I want to add the SAP licence from command prompt on windows server , So kindly give me what command and syntax i have to use . Kindly let me know .

HI,
If you are using ECC 6.0 then use tcode SLICENSE to install license.
Products based on NW 7.0 use a "new" license (digitally signed) which can´t be imported any more using program saplicense.

Adding license prime infrastructure

Dear team
our customer have existing license prime infrasturcture version 1.2, he want to add 150 license for assurance license
what the part number license for purchase the license
thanks
Yusuf

Those are the correct part numbers to add 150 Assurance licenses to PI 1.2. You should also be including the support service for those items. e.g.:
I'd encourage them to upgrade to PI 2.0. If they have SASU support on their PI they will be eligible to upgrade. The Assurance license files will need to be re-issued for PI 2.0. (Base and Lifecycle license files can carry forward as-is.)

Code or idea of adding date range parameters

Thanks guys for answering all my past queries.
Another question arises
I don't know how to write code for date range value parameters for a report.
i-e
I have a report that takes a start date and end date range parameter.
I can pass all the other parameters to CrystalReportViewer through code but dont know how to write code to pass date range parameters.
Please help!

Hi,
I assume you are using JRC on CR XI or XI R2.
For Single Range Values:
Calendar calendar1 = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar1.clear();
calendar1.set(yyyy,mm,dd);
Date date1 = calendar1.getTime();
Calendar calendar2 = Calendar.getInstance();
calendar1.clear();
calendar.set(yyyy,mm,dd);
Date date2 = calendar2.getTime();
// use yyyy,mm,dd,hh,mm,ss for DateTime parameter.
ParameterFieldValue rangeVal = createSingleRangeVal(date1, date2, RangeValueBoundType.inclusive, RangeValueBoundType.inclusive);
paramFieldController.setCurrentValue("", "<Parameter Name>", rangeVal);
For Multiple Range Values:
Object [] beginVals = {date1, date2, date3};
Object [] endVals = {date4, date5, date6};
//Where date1 - date4 is range 1, date2 - date5 is range 2 and date3 - date 6 is range 3.
RangeValueBoundType [] beginBoundTypes = {RangeValueBoundType.inclusive, RangeValueBoundType.exclusive, RangeValueBoundType.noBound};
RangeValueBoundType [] endBoundTypes = {RangeValueBoundType.noBound, RangeValueBoundType.inclusive, RangeValueBoundType.exclusive};
ParameterFieldValue [] multiRangeVal = createMultiValRangeParameter(beginVals, endVals, beginBoundTypes, endBoundTypes);
paramFieldController.setCurrentValues("", "<Parameter Name>", multiRangeVal);
I hope this helps.
