If record become larger after stored in disk file?

for example, a 50 bytes record(including key and data), after it is stored in disk file,
how does it organized in the disk file?
if BDB add some medata information to make the record occupy the larger disk space?
best regards.

Hi,
Berkeley DB does store meta data along with the actual data. The actual amount of on disk space required for each record depends on a number of factors (page size chosen, fill factors, etc).
If disk space usage is a concern you should measure the actual usage for your data set and access pattern. If the size seems unreasonably large there are a number of steps you can take to reduce it. If you need help to understand those steps please post specific information about your particular use case.

Screen recording becomes blurry after exporting to iMovie

After creating a screen recording using Quicktime (and the video is perfectly clear), I am trying to export to iMovie to edit the video more easily and to add an audio track. However, once the video is turned into an iMovie project, it is blurry. Still blurry after stabilization too. Please help!

After creating a screen recording using Quicktime (and the video is perfectly clear), I am trying to export to iMovie to edit the video more easily and to add an audio track. However, once the video is turned into an iMovie project, it is blurry. Still blurry after stabilization too.
Is this a minimum information guessing game? Is this a "full" or "partial" screen recording? What are the actual dimensions of the screen capture? Was the capture made using QT or a third-party app? Did you perform a manual or automatic "export" or simply import the screen capture file to iMovie? In what type iMovie project are you editing the exported or imported screen captured file? Why are you stabilizing a screen recording? (I.e., the stabilization routine further rescales the content.)
If I were merely to make a guess, It would be that your work flow is rescaling the content making it blurry in iMovie as compared to the original capture file.

Modifying the number of records to skip after importing the flat file

I imported a flat file and the first row was the column header. I also created an external table for that flat file. The sqlldr is skipping the first record during the load. Is there a way to change this in the flat file module or External table?

If you marked this row as the header in the sample wizard then you will see the following in the External Table:
ACCESS PARAMETERS (
RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
CHARACTERSET WE8MSWIN1252
STRING SIZES ARE IN BYTES
NOBADFILE
NODISCARDFILE
NOLOGFILE
SKIP 1
So the external table is skipping this.
Now the issue with changing it is interesting because you cannot change this after the sampling... I think this is a bug which I will file.
Let me know if this answers the question,

After running a disk checker, I have 30 gigs showing as used but unaccounted for anywhere, all the files I moved to an external hdd are still taking up space

I recently purchased a mac book air with the 128g SDD. After setting it up with all my desired applications I started to download some large media files. Knowing that I'm working with limited HDD space I hooked up a portable 1TB Drive, formatted it for MAC OS Extended (journaled) and moved all of my large files onto the back up drive. After moving all the files in my downloads folder to the trash, and then emptying the trash the space on the SDD "Macintosh HD" did not change. Currently reading at used 91g, available 29g (as seen in the disk utility program with the Macintosh HD highlighted). To find the 'mystery used space' I ran a program called 'DIsk Inventory X' on their opening screen the program shows a smaller capacity with 84g used and 27g free, running the program adds up the value of all the folders and applications on the HD only to discover their is only 54g's accounted for (this is realistic for the files and applications I currently have installed and intend to carry with me on a daily basis)
So my question is why is my SDD only filing up and not clearing the space I move to trash and empty, at this rate I won't have any space left.

sounds like the drive may be defective. remember that hardrives can crash at any time even if new and the drives in the air books are just really big flash drives. sound like you have an appointment for the genius bar to get it replaced.
i have one more possible fix but requires you download a free app called "OnyX". if you are not famliar with the power of this app, be carefull about what you have it do. hit me back up if you choose to go this route. other wise to the apple store you go my friend

OS X partition becomes corrupt after switching from Bootcamp

So I've had to reinstall os x 10.9.1 no less than three times this week and multiple times before in the past after switching between os x and windows 8.1. This usually happens after I've been using windows for a prolonged period then switch back to os x but it happened today after reinstalling os x from a time machine backup just yesterday. I'll switch between the two and os x becomes corrupt and begins the loading bar sequence after selecting the os x partition via the refit boot manager. I tried repairing the partition using disk utility from the repair partition and an external installation of os x 10.9.1 but every time the disk becomes corrupt and needs to be wiped and reinstalled or install a time machine backup. I've lost count of how many times I've had to do this and to make things even worse both of my external disks have become corrupt after being disconnected for two days while I sort this mess out. Does anyone else have similar issues or can locate an issue somewhere?

Yeah I reinstalled osx 10.9.1 and installed all my apps, put everything back then used bootcamp to create a partition for windows then used wineclone to install my windows 8.1 backup. I jumped from windows > osx > windows > osx inside an hour to move around a few things and I forgot verify bootcamp after I installed the backup and that last time I booted to osx it was corrupted. I used disk utility from my external installation and the recovery partition and both times they need repaired which only came up with the backup and wipe notification window. There have been two occasions where I was able to fix the osx partition from my external osx installation and continue using osx quite perfectly but usually the partition becomes un-mountable after it fails to repair. Usually when this has happened the twenty something times before it's after a prolonged period of a few weeks using windows.
I'm using refit boot manager and paragon NTFS 11 which may be the only software I've installed that could be corrupting the boot.

-5408 error on all RTSP streams via QuickTime (after a near-disk failure)

Hi Folks.
Today I had a near catastrophic failure on my startup drive: following a simple permissions repair routine, after a shutdown the startup drive failed to mount. It took DiskWarrior to get it back again, but most of my preference files were corrupted. With Time Machine most of these were restored successfully however.
Everything is back in order, except that when I try to connect to any QuickTime compatible RTSP stream, I end up getting a -5408 error.
The streams I am connecting to are from IP cameras which have RTSP and h264. I know they're working fine because I have another MacBook beside me also running 10.6.8 which is pulling them down fine, doing exactly the same thing.
I also know that the streams I am connecting to are using TCP, not UDP. Normally when buffering it starts at about 3 seconds and goes down, but at present it is switching transports immediately and counting down from 8.7 seconds before timing out.
This is happening in any browser with the QuickTime Plugin, and QuickTime Player itself (both the X version and the old 7 version).
So it would seem to me that TCP is being blocked within the OSX system when trying to use port 554. And I do not have firewall turned on.
I know this has been caused by something being affected due to the need for a recovery, but short of installing a clean version of Snow Leopard, I wondered if there was a way of checking transports and seeing if this can be fixed more easily.
Hope you can help.
Paul C.

Well, given no-one could shed any light on this, I'd like to let you all know that I worked it out myself.
Here's how the story ends:
A few days after the near-disk-death experience, I went to use my Express Card modem to connect to 3G wireless and found that all of my network settings preferences were gone (airport/VPNs etc...). It couldn't even recognise my Sierra Wireless express card at all. This was even after restoring my entire preferences folder in my Home folder using Time Machine, which got most things back to normal.
Some research in these discussion forums found that network settings are not stored in your home folder's library, but on your startup drive's /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration folder. It has these files in it:
preferences.plist
com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
com.apple.PowerManagement.plist
com.apple.network.identification.plist
com.apple.smb.server.plist
com.apple.nat.plist
NetworkInterfaces.plist
com.apple.Boot.plist
So I used Time Machine to restore an older version of that folder, and hey presto, all my network settings returned.
And then I connected to a page where RTSP wasn't working in via QuickTime, and it worked.
I'm still not sure which file contained the problem with RTSP over TCP, and that still doesn't explain why a different user on this same machine I setup had no problems.
Not that I care anymore, because my MacBook is now back the way it was. It seems...
I highly recommend DiskWarrior for when strange things start happening to your Mac, or if a drive/partition disappears. It can find and restore things that other 'salvage' type disk recovery apps cannot.

Video app becomes corrupted after streaming iTunes purchases

I wasn't sure what to use for a title here, but chose this because it captures much of what I am seeing.
Hardware:
3rd gen iPad, 32GB, iOS 7.0.4
What I am doing:
I purchase TV shows and movies from the iTunes store, but as we watch them while on the home Wifi network, there is no need to download the content to a device before viewing. Once a TV show or movie is purchased, it can be viewed in the Videos app as streaming content, much the same way that it does on Apple TV (which doesn't permanently store anything).
Key observation: I usually make these purchases through the Videos app itself, rather than going explicitly to the iTunes Store app. I am not sure this makes a difference, but it may.
What happens:
It all works well for several weeks or months. Then 3 bad things happen:
1) During this time I observe that the available space on the iPad steadily decreases (viewed through Settings -> General -> Usage). It starts with a value of approximately 12GB free space, and then declines, despite the fact that I am not storing any media files locally. After approximately 2 months, I now have 5GB free, and cannot account for the "missing" 7GB, not even close.
While it is to be expected that any streaming device must temporarily store content, that content is usually cleared after viewing or after some predetermined time interval, etc. I do not expect this content to simply accumulate endlessly.
2) Eventually, videos will fail to work properly. I will attempt to watch a purchased item, and it will run painfully slow, and may be missing audio. I check Usage, and my free space continues to decline. Subsequent attempts to view TV show and movies are now unreliable.
Big clue: shows that do not work properly cannot be deleted or downloaded locally.
3) The entire iPad becomes notably slower and less responsive running all of my usual apps (Pages, Numbers, Facebook, etc.)
What I tried that was illuminating:
I noted that under Settings -> General -> Usage, it shows the Video app as containing "No data". So, I tried downloading a different purchased video in order to guarantee that there is some data. While this video plays within the Video app, I observe that Usage still shows the Video app as having "No data", which is verifiably untrue.
Conclusion: the database used by the Videos app is failing to purge old streamed content, becoming corrupted, and now failing to report data storage to iOS.
What works:
Sadly, the only cure for this problem is a complete erase/restore of the iPad from iCloud backup. When I do this, all of my "missing" storage returns, and videos work normally. The iPad performance returns to its usual snappy self. But the cycle repeats, and I must eventually go through the 3+ hour restore process again.
This solution is 100% consistent with a corrupt database, and hence I suspect that the Video app is the culprit, consuming space until other systems are affected.
Has anyone else seen this?

I'm experiencing this exact issue on two devices:
iPhone 4S 32GB
iPad Air 64 GB
Both while running iOS 7.03 and 7.04 (recently updated both devices to 7.04 hoping it would help. It didn't)
My iPhone had become nearly unusable until I found your post. It had apparently accumulated >12 GB of "temporary streamed content", as after I did a backup/wipe/restore, I had recovered to around 12 GB free space.
It's unfortunate that the fix requires a complete reset/restore cycle, as it's very time-consuming, but thanks for providing that fix! It saved my iPhone 4S. Now I can comfortable wait until the 6 comes out to get a new iPhone.
Really, though, this seems like a critical bug for iOS devices. I'll certainly not stream any iTunes content until/unless this is fixed. I found that if I turn off "Show all Videos" in the Video App settings, it doesn't show the iTunes cloud content for streaming from within the App. This forces me into iTunes to do a full download if I want to watch something. Kind of a pain, but it beats a device that's maxed out on storage and basically bricked.

Mass Contract Update - Item price become zero after Tax Code change

HI Guru,
I have issue on the contract net price which become zero after change in Tax code of item.
Took the opportunity to update contracts to reflect the changing VAT code (from V0 to V1 for some items) from the Trx code: MEMASSCONTRACT. However, having run the transactions (ME33K) above the contracts are now displaying zero prices on the Item Overview. The conditions are all correct (PB00) and the follow on purchase orders seem to be picking up the correct prices but we need to resolve the issue of zero prices on the item overview.
Please help me in this why it is happening like this? & what is the solution for it.
Thanks in advance
Praveen Katageri

Hi,
If pricing picking , just check validity period ( Valid from & Valid to) in condition of the Info record.Also check any scale is used & price active or not in condition of Info record.

Time Machine Error This backup is too large for the backup disk

Hi, I have a 1TB Time Capsule which backs up my Mac. I was having some issues with my mac so I decided to perform an erase and install and then use Migration Assistant to transfer everything back to my Mac.
After I reinstalled Snow Leopard and restored my Mac using Migration Assistant, Time Machine says that the backup has failed. It says " Time Machine Error This backup is too large for the backup disk. The Backup requires 663 GB but only 255 GB are available.
What do I do? Is my only option to erase my Time Capsule and have it back everything up from scratch?

Hi, thanks for the help. I erased everything off of the Time Capsule and it's backing up my Mac from scratch. It's almost finished backing up my whole mac. It's now at 641.86gb of 646.54gb but it's now backing up very slowly. It's backing up .1 every few minutes. Is this normal?

HT4522 Multiple computers on Time Capsule. "Backup is too large for the backup disk" ???

I am getting the following error:
"Time Machine Error
This backup is too large for the backup disk. The
backup requires 15.38 GB but only 3.94 GB are
available."
I have a two MacBook Pros that I have been backing up to my 1 TB Time Capsule using Time Machine. Recently, I have started getting errors saying that there is not enough space to complete backups. Between the two MacBook Pros, there is a max of 400 GB that I am trying to backup. I thought that old backups were deleted to make room for new ones - so what gives?
I used Migration Assistant to migrate everything from the old MacBook Pro (2009) to a new MacBook Pro (2011). I also used Migration Assistant to Migrate everything from an old MacBook to the old MacBook Pro (2009). So, I am now only using the two MacBook Pros (2009 and 2011).
Is it possible that there are old backups on the Time Capsule from the MacBook and the MacBook Pro (2009) from before the Migration? If so, how do I find them and delete them?
My goal is to create more space on the Time Capsule so I can continue backups of the two Pros. Thanks for the help in advance. Sorry if this is confusing. Please ask questions to clarify.

The time machine does not work as well when there are multiple computers using the TC.
It really does not seem able to dispose of the old backups.
Pondini may help..
http://pondini.org/TM/C4.html
IMHO.. The best bet is to plug in a USB drive large enough to save everything on the TC and do a back directly from the airport utility.. disk, archive..
Then wipe the TC using erase.. and do a fresh TM backup on both computers.
Keep the USB drive in a draw for a year and a day.. after that you can assume anything on it is no longer required wipe it and do another backup of the TC.

What will happen to my key if my hard disk is formatted, will the key work after my hard disk is formatted ?

I want to know that, will my synchronized computer key will work if I format my hard disk because when hard disk is formatted then the key code will be erased , though I have saved my key will it work after formatting hard disk . let me know .
let me also know that what will happen if I lose the key I had saved then how will I access my synchronized computer .

Hi!
Can you point to the information where it says that the information is backed up in our servers? If that's mentioned anywhere we need to clarify it.
The only reference I found is here: [[What is Firefox Sync?]] and it specifically says that the information is synched across devices through our servers. If that's misleading, let me know so we can rephrase it.
Regarding storing the key in your pen-drive or any other back up system: This is the best solution and it will work smoothly after you format your computer. The key doesn't change when you format your computer so you will have no issues after all.

After storing pdf in a database table I miss some content

Hello,
we develop an Application with APEX 3.0.1 and create pdf-documents. The database is 10.2.0.3. Report Queries were created in APEX and layouts were created with BI Publisher. There were defined two buttons. The first one is for interactive printing the report pdf and it works correctly. The second button is for saving just this report pdf in the database, the PL/SQL procedure use the same ReportURL. If I view this report pdf after storing in the database, the pdf displays not all of the content like in interactive printing document.
Is there anybody who knows this situation? What can I do for finding the reasons for this behavior?
Best regards,
Susanne

Susanne,
I'm not sure how you're retrieving the PDF document in the DB and store it there. But you mentioned that you use APEX 3.0.1, have you considered upgrading to APEX 3.1.2? In 3.1 we introduced print APIs, like apex_util.get_print_document that are designed specifically for this purpose:

The Creative Cloud application becomes inoperable continually on both my Windows 7 and 8.1 operating systems. I'm tired of re installing the application after deleting the OOBE file to get updates and syn settings between computers for Photoshop. Is this

The Creative Cloud application becomes inoperable continually on both my Windows 7 and 8.1 operating systems. I'm tired of re installing the application after deleting the OOBE file to get updates and syn settings between computers for Photoshop. Is this an endemic problem with others? I'm using Google Chrome as my browser. Is this an issue with the problem?

Similar problem just happened to me with the Creative Cloud Update 1.7.1.418—slightly different so I thought I'd share. I have multiple Adobe Creative Cloud programs installed on my computer, all working just fine. I updated the Cloud App to the latest version and then it shows me that I have only one program installed! All my previously installed programs (Photoshop and the like) still work but show as "install" instead of "Up to date". Initially I thought I'd have to re-install the Cloud app or recreate the OPM data base but then I noticed that some of the Cloud app preferences (Apps > Settings > App Language) were different to what I had set previously. I use English (International) language, the update had reverted the app back to English (North American). I flicked back to my previous language and bam, all my apps now show as being installed correctly.

Business Partner records with large numbers of addresses -- Move-in issue

Friends,
Our recent CCS implementation (ECC6.0ehp3 & CRM2007) included the creation of some Business Partner records with large numbers of addresses. Most of these are associated with housing authorities, large developers and large apartment complex owners. Some of the Business Partners have over 1000 address records and one particular BP has over 6000 addresses that were migrated from our Legacy System. We are experiencing very long run times to try to execute move in's and move out's due to the system reading the volume of addresses attached to the Business Partner. In many cases, the system simply times out before it can execute the transaction. SAP's suggestion is that we run a BAPI to cleanse the addresses and also to implement a BADI to prevent the creation of excess addresses.
Two questions surrounding the implementation of this code. Will the BAPI to cleanse the addresses, wipe out all address records except for the standard address? That presents an issue to ensure that the standard address on the BP record is the correct address that we will have identified as the proper mailing address. Second question is around the BADI to prevent the creation of excess addresses. It looks like this BADI is going to prevent the move in address from updating the standard address on the BP record which in the vast majority of cases is exactly what we would want.
Does anyone have any experience with this situation of excess BP addresses and how did you handle the manipulation and cleansing of the data and how do you maintain it going forward?
Our solution is ECC6.0Ehp3 with CRM2007...latest patch level
Specifically, SAP suggested we apply/review these notes:
Note 1249787 - Performance problem during move-in with huge addresses
**applied this ....did not help
Note 861528 - Performance in move-in for partner w/ large no of addresses
**older ISU4.7 note
Directly from our SAP message:
use the function module
BAPI_BUPA_ADDRESS_REMOVE or run BAPI_ISUPARTNER_CHANGE to delete
unnecessary business partner addresses.
Use BAdI ISU_MOVEIN_CUSTOMIZE to avoid the creation of unnecessary
business partner addresses (cf. note 706686) in the future for that
business partner.
Note 706686 - Move-in: Avoid unnecessary business partner addresses
Does anyone have any suggestions and have you used above notes/FMs to resolve something like this?
Thanks,
Nick

Nick:
One thing to understand is that the badi and bapi are just the tools or mechanisms that will enable you to fix this situation. You or your development team will need to define the rules under which these tools are used. Lets take them one at a time.
BAPI - the bapi for business partner address maintenance. It would seem that you need to create a program which first read the partners and the addresses assigned to them and then compares these addresses to each other to find duplicate addresses. These duplicates then can be removed provided they are not used elsewhere in the system (i.e. contract account).
BADI - the badi for business partner address maintenance. Here you would need to identify the particular scenarios where addresses should not be copied. I would expect that most move-ins would meet the criteria of adding the address and changing the standard address. But for some, i.e. landlords or housing complexes, you might not add an address because it already exists for the business partner, and you might not change the standard address because those accounts do not fall under that scenario. This will take some thinking and design to ensure that the address add/change functions are executed under the right circumstances.
regards,
bill.

Time Machine Error - The backup is too large for the backup disk

I have been using Lion (currently 10.7.1) on my MacBook Pro (13" - early 2011) since it was released. I haven't had any serious problems with it.
All of a sudden, I am getting an error in Time Machine. When it tries to run a backup, the error "This backup is too large for the backup disk. The backup requires 7.51 GB but only 630.1 GB are available." What gives? That's plenty of room. I have installed Logic Studio and a few plug-ins, so the 7.51 GB is probably right. The free space is correct as well. I can't understand what the problem is.
The backup disk is an external USB 2.0 drive with no other Time Machine backups on it or any other files. The folder "Backups.backupdb" is the only thing on the root of the disk.
I am reluctant to reset the Time Machine and lose all of the backups, but I will if anyone recommends it.

Hi Linc,
It is not working at the moment, as I have restored the original Lion image again; it has all my work and apps on it.
Many thanks for the info on the log, though. It tells a strange story. Here's the log from the last backup that worked to the first one that failed: --

I don't understand. For starters, I think it's a little wasteful that 3.5 GB has been used to back up 601 KB. That's the difference in free space on the backup volume between the two backups. That can't be normal, surely.
The only error is that mds[32] error, and from what I've read on forums, that seems to appear on backups that work perfectly.
Too weird. It looks like I'll have to reinstall Lion and all my applications again to get Time Machine working, or find another backup solution.

If record become larger after stored in disk file?
