IMac spec help required for virtualisation needs.

Hi I currently own a MBP 13" core 2 duo with 4GB ram and its hardware limitations are becoming apparent for my needs and I cannot increase the memory any further.
I have recently taken a career change and started working in IT which I love to bits. As part of my job I have to complete several Microsoft Exams.
I learn by doing practice scenarios and have been using Parallels 6 for Mac, virtualising 2 Windows 7 and getting them to communicate to each other etc. There will be other things to learn down the line. I like Parallels because you can flip easily between OSX and MS take snapshots etc. However my current MBP does struggle (it pages to the HDD and the fans do kick in) & I am looking for another Mac as I like the all in one form factor screen etc, I don't want a beige box.
I would really like another MBP but the memory only goes up to 8Gb Ram so considering the iMac range but with the iMac comes limitations - portability.
As I progress with my new career I will have to take further exams in further subjects such as Windows Server 2008 R2 & Exchange 2010 and so on.
I would like to continue using Parallels 6 but my main issues is the spec.
A training example I maybe thinking of is:
1 to 2 Windows 7 Virtual clients
1 Windows Server 2008 R2 with SP2 running a Domain & Exchange 2010
or to replicate real world scenario
as above but 2 * Windows 2008 Server R2 (1 with a Domain controller the other with Exchange 2010).
I may also want to learn Windows Small Business Server - so something similar to the above.
This will (ideally) be running on OSX using Parallels 6.
With this in mind I am considering:
iMac 27" 2011 -
3.4GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i7
4GB ram Plus 8Gb purchased separately totalling 12GB (may consider maxing out to 16gb if needed)
256 Gb SSD with the 2TB HDD
I understand that I will have to balance the needs of OSX and the guest operating systems I am hoping the i7 will give me this flexibility as there are virtual cores.
eg Host - OSX - 2CPU's & 4GB ram
2* Win 7 - 1 CPU shared & total of 2GB ram
Windows 2008 R2 (Domain controller) - 1 CPU & 2GB ram
Windows 2008 R2 with Exchange 2010 & test mailboxes etc - allocate 2 CPU's (hoping that the virtual cores come into play) & 4GB ram.
As this is going to be a testing & learning environment there isn't going to be a massive load on the exchange box or loads of clients accessing so I am hoping the memory & cpu requirements are going to be ok.
My main questions are:
1- Will the above iMac spec do?
2- Should I max out the ram to 16gb?
3- Is the standard AMD Radeon HD 6970M 1GB do or should I upgrade to the 2GB due to the number of virtual machines.
4- As this iMac will cost some money could I get away with an i5???
5- Will it perform ok - ie will my OSX environment and my guest os's work smoothly without any lag
6- Will the i7 Virtualisation of the CPUs work (as in my real world scenario I have run out of "actual cpu's!!)
7- Is there a likely hood that the iMac could over heat with all the work that I am asking it to do?
8- Confirm my gut feelings that a MBP would not be able to do the the tasks I am asking it to do?!!!
10 - Any suggestions to getting my MBP to connect remotely to the iMac so I can do virtualisation work on it?
11- Has anyone done something similar and got any advice / tips on their setup.
12- Should I just not bother using OSX and just use Microsoft Hyper V (still on an iMac though)
Any answers / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

1. I would think the system that you have is mind is more than enough.
2. No, I think 8GB is find, but if you are planning on running 4 or 5 VMs at the same time then maybe 12GB.
3. This is find.
4. Yes, the i5 will work for you also.
5. Yes, but again if you have 4 or 5 VMs open it could lag.
6. Yes both the i5 and the i7.
7. No, It has has a few fans that will take care of heat.
8. Yes, I would think any of the current MacBook Pro's con handle this also.
9. Yes, Apple Remote Desktop, Back to my Mac, LogMeIn, etc.
10. Get the largest hard drive available for you new system.
11. No, use Parallels.
Good luck with your new position.

Help required for unicode compatibilty

Dear All,
We are in a process of analyzing the impact of unicode compatibility for our environment.
Following is our scenario:
- ECC6.0 is non unicode systsem
- Need to buid unicode CRM 7, SCM 7, PI 7.1 and BI7
- Need to integrate the above systems to non unicode ECC system.
Our questions are :
1. Is there any performance consideration when using communication between an Unicode and non-Unicode system?
Is Unicode - Unicode faster than Unicode - non-Unicode communication performance wise?
2. Do we face any technical or functinal problems while trying to integrate
unicode BI/ NW Java Stack to non unicode systems.
3. Do we need to review our sizing estimations due to unicode implemenation?
5. what will be the storage consumption increase for unicode systems compared to non unicode?
It would be greatly helpful for me if you can clarify these doubts.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
1. I think no one has really measured this. I expect a slightly higher requirement for Unicode <--> Non-Unicode interfaces.
2. Please have a look at SAP Notes 838402, 73606, 975768 and 1358929 for restrictions in Non-Unicode systems. SAP highly recommends to go for Unicode in the whole landscape.
3. and 5. If you use the SAP quicksizer (http://service.sap.com/quicksizing), then Unicode is integrated.
" Please note that the Quick Sizer results include Unicode requirements. For more
information on additional requirements caused by Unicode, see
http://service.sap.com/unicode -> Unicode Media Library -> Unicode information on
specific topics: SAP Business Suite Unicode Hardware Requirements"

PCUI 4.0, Search Help Required for New field

Hi everyone
I am working in CRM 4.0 Sales Order application
We created a new field in CRM sales Order in Header level in SAP GUI through EEWB.
The search help for the new field is working fine in SAP GUI. We want to add the same field with F4 help functionaliity in PCUI as well.
The field has been added in structure CRMT_BSP_SLS_OD1_General. It also shows domain value for the field however Origin of input field ie empty
The field has been added in PCUI and is successfully showing data inputted in SAPGUI
However we need search help functionality for the field
i tried these two steps
1) i checked on domain value checkbox and changed the field from input to dropdown. However the dropdown is empty in PCUI. Whenever i check box domain values for some field then all the possible values in SPA GUI are displayed in PCUI, however this is not working here.
2) I put Value_table in F4 of the field
This is also throwing up empty values
Am i missing something in this case
Please let me know how to go about it
TIA
Asad

Hi Frederic
Thanks for your response
I am not sure what is meant by regenerating the field group in this case
I added the entries for my view in the field group and generated the layout of the field group (If this is what you mean)
The field is working fine. I am able to save values to the field and able to see values saved in GUI.
I haven't linked search help of the field in PCUI
I am not sure how to go about it.
I used the data element in the structure for the field.
The data element has Domain entry in <b>Entry Help/Check</b> of the structure
If i check the Domain Value checkbox in my field group then the domain values should be available in dropdown if the field is dropdown
However i am not able to see the possible values of the field (It is present in SAP GUI)
Does something else needs to be done in this case
TIA

2. Anybody has blog for 810 or Dispatch Advice (IDOC type DESADV).
For 810 i think the procedure would be the same but themseeburger mapping program that validates the ANSX 810 would be different.As far as 997is concerned 997 is a functional acknowledgement.Its a genric format that is used to send acknowledgement for any EDI transaction set that has been sent.
3. Can anybody provide me Mapping Logic (at field level) done in XI/PI for 850, 810 , Dispatch Advice (IDOC type DESADV) .
The logic will be based on the trading partner guidelines which will contain the description of all the semantic and syntactiic description about the segments ,its feilds.we need to consider the guidelines and target side specifications too while mapping.
Thanks,

IWork help required for iMac OSXv10.7.5

I have a 2 year old iMac pc on which I downloaded Pages/Keynote/Numbers almost 2 years ago. I tried yesterday to send a WORD friendly document and it came up that iWork was discontinued and it is iWork that you can change the format I believe. Do I need to upgrade iWork? What do I need to download and is it free? I need pointing in the right direction to enable me to again have iWork as many of my friends cannot open Pages docs as they have Microsoft Windows OS. As I am elderly I need good outline instructions please
Many thanks x

The latest version of iWorks is for Mavericks.

Help! Urgent help required for adjusting image

Hi - hoping someone can help.
I sent the attached PDF - http://www.sensecreative.co.uk/custUploads/SENSE-36-7977-95928/77317/SENSE-36-7977-95928-7 7317-2440.zip - to print with Sense Creative. The cards were printed and they've turned out quite visibly green on the reverse (where it should be white).
I've printed the artwork on several printers I have access to and it looks as it should, however SC are saying that the issue is with the artwork
"The green tinge you see on the reverse of these cards is prevalent in the artwork. The makeup of the background is approximately c-15 m-11 y-15 k-0. the predominant levels of the yellow and cyan will give you the green tint. Upping the levels of the artwork in or substituting the cyan, magenta and yellow levels with more black in Photoshop will likely give you the result you require. We are satisfied that in both instances, the artwork has printed correctly and the colours are well within tolerance given the nature of the artwork."
So, I'm in a bit of a pickle as the cards are needed for an event next week.
How do I change the image levels? Or are they talking nonsense and trying to pass the buck?
Help!

Urgent Help Required for Connect Four Game

Hi all,
I am a student and I have a project due 20th of this month, I mean May 20, 2007 after 8 days. The project is about creating a Connect Four Game. I have found some code examples on the internet which helped me little bit. But there are lot of problems I am facing developing the whole game. I have drawn the Board and the two players can play. The players numbers can fill the board, but I have problem implementing the winner for the game. I need to implement the hasWon() method for Horizontal win, Vertical win and Diagonal win. I also found some code examples on the net but I was unable to make it working. I have 5 classes and one interface which I m implementing. The main problem is how to implement the hasWon() method in the PlayGame class below with Horizontal, vertical and diagonal moves.
Sorry there is so much code.
This the interface I must implement, but now I am only implementing the int move() of this interface. I will implement the rest later after solving the winner problem with your help.

Hi,
Thanks for your help but I really don't understand the table lookup algorithm. Could you please send me some code to implement that.
I will send you the formatted code as well

Help required for the users report requirement

Hello,
User requirement is to get the report as follows
Period            planned order     Production order      Backlog
Feb2008          15                           3                      18
March2008      4                            11                     15
Backlog is the formula for planned order & production order.
My problem is that, In the cube the data for planned order is the char value 'X' or a blank.
It has to count the total of planned order for the entire month of feb,& print the value counting the number of 'X',here as shown as 15.
Planned order, Production order are in rows & are chracteristics.
Is thr any solution to count master data which has a char value(X).
I have tried using the formula variable.I had created the new formula.Then using the data functions as count(Formula variable),using the replacment path.But it did not work
Help me out to find the total for the char value of the master data.
Help would be rewarded!

Hello,
For BACKEND:
1) Create a normal KF say counter and include it in the cube.
2) Now you can populate the value for this KF via end routine in transformation.
3) You need to check whether the value for planned order is X. If yes then update KF with value 1.
4) I hope you can take care of this routine part. Once this is done the data in the cube might look in below manner:
Month Planned-Order Counter
Feb 2007 | X | 1
Feb 2007 | X | 1
Feb 2007 | | 0
Feb 2007 | X | 1
Feb 2007 | | 0
Mar 2007 | | 0
Mar 2007 | X | 1
Mar 2007 | | 0
Mar 2007 | | 0
Mar 2007 | X | 1
Now in the report if you include month and counter the report will look like
Month Counter
Feb 2007 | 3
Mar 2007 | 2
If you see the counter is getting aggregated to give you the sum against the value of planned order as X against month.
I think this should work.
If this dosent work let me know i will let you the alternate solution for frontend. but for that too you need to make the above backend changes.
So do the backend changes and try to use counter KF for showing planned orders and i think it should work fine.

hi all,
i have created two parameters on the selection screen.
1. deptno
2.empname

Thanks

Hi Sanjeev,
If you input any deptno and you should get all the empname corresponding then first you need to use CALL FUNCTION 'DYNP_VALUES_READ'.
EXPORTING
    DYNAME                         = sy-repid
    DYNUMB                         = sy-dynnr
TRANSLATE_TO_UPPER             = ' '
   REQUEST                        = 'A'
PERFORM_CONVERSION_EXITS       = ' '
PERFORM_INPUT_CONVERSION       = ' '
DETERMINE_LOOP_INDEX           = ' '
TABLES
    DYNPFIELDS                     = gt_dynp
declare: DATA : gt_dynp LIKE dynpread OCCURS 0.
loop at gt_dynp into wt_dynp where fieldname = 'P_SUPRID-LOW'.
lv_low = wt_dynp-fieldvalue.
endloop.
Then while selecting use this p_superid-low instead of p_deptno.
Then :
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST'
After this funtion module:
write:
IF sy-subrc = 0.
    READ TABLE itab
INDEX 1.
    'p_empnam' = return_tab-fieldval.
Declare return_tab as:
    DATA: return_tab   LIKE ddshretval OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
Thanks,

Help Required for Adobe Forms.....

Hello All,
I have a very unique requirement as such we have a form and in the "TO" string field where we specify the email address of the receivers, now we want to send address memo to multiple users, however in our search window we can search only one name at a time & need to open search window every time for every new user to be included in the address field. We need to have AJAX type of functionality such as AJAX does asynchronous calls to the back-end and get help values dynamically even when the user is entering help values.
In my case if I start typing S in the manager filed, an event should get triggered and return back the names of all managers who start with the letter S,
If we go to Google.com and start typing, as you type,e Google gets help values and displays them below the input field. This is based on making asynchronous calls to the back-end.
We want to send interactive adobe forms to the multiple users for their approval or information. while entering email ids of multiple users, we need to have functionality as described above.
I'll appreciate if anyone can help with some clear steps, document link or working code sample etc.

[Gaurav Patwari|http://gauravpatwari.wordpress.com]

Hi Gaurav,
Creating Process chain for OHD.
1. Go to RSPC-> Create a astart variant.
2. Click on process typesin the menu. Fourth from the left. Under this go to LOAD PROCESSES AND POST PROCESSING option.
3. The fifth option is "DATA EXPORT INTO EXTERNAL SYSTEMS". Click on that.
4. Click on F4 and choose your infospoke name.
5. Press the RIGHT button.(if it asks for variant, create a new variant in the same small window besideswritting bar).
6. Join the START process and the 2nd process via dragging.
7. Now add your required other processes.
The general process chain processes are :
1. Start.
2. Delete Indexes (if data loaded to cube).
3. Load process.
4. Delete duplicate request (if it is a full load in cube).
5. Create Indexes.
Hope it helps.

Help required - For ALV program

Hi Guys,
I have created an ALV (using containers) with , say , 10 fields. As the container size is not large enough to accomodate all the 10 fields, it is getting displayed as
field1, field2,field8, field9 and field10.
When I click on the horizontal scrollbar, the fields getting displayed should change as follows.
First click: Field2, Field3, Field8,Field9, Field10
Second click: Field3,Field4, 8, 9,10
Third click: Field4,Field5,8,9,10
This is for one of my friends.Can you provide me with good ideas as to how to approach this problem and if any one has worked on similar problem, please provide the code for it.
I will check the code and will award points to all helpful answers.
Have a nice day .
Regards,
SP.

Hello Sylendra
As developer of ALV lists we do not care that much about the layout of the list because the user has all the options available to adjust it to her specific needs.
Your requirement is to be able to "freeze" columns at the right border of the ALV list. This is, as far as I know, not possible, only at the left border.
When you call the context menu for a column heading you will see the options
- Freeze to Column
- Unfreeze Columns
If you freeze a column all columns to its left side remain fixed. Thus, in your case you have to change the order of your columns that the fixed columns (field8 - field10) appear on the left side of the ALV list.

Uwe

We dont want to make any of these mandatory, but we have a condition that either of the two sets must be entered i.e. before submitting we have to validate that either From Project Number/To Project Number parameter set is populated or From Org/To Org parameter set is populated.
If someone could help me with this it would be a great help.

Which imac spec to go for?

I need to buy a new Imac. I was going to go for the fastest processor but an Apple sales rep said that a 256GB on board SSD with a 3.1Ghz SATA drive will be faster to use than a 3.4GHz without an SSD. They say the SSD will help with the speed of tasks while the SATA will provide file storage.
Does anyone have exp[erience of using a new iMac with on board SSD?

The speed increase of booting the computer and launching software from an SSD is incredible. I had the chance to buy a very lightly used SSD for my 3 year old MacBook Pro from my boss and the computer that I was close to selling got a new lease on life. It boots up in well under a minute (that includes launching all my little startup items), Photoshop launches in seconds, and everything just pops.
When my wife traded her 2008 MBP for a MacBook Air I was very sceptical due to the small amount of RAM (4GB) while her MBP had 8GB. But once again, the speed of the SSD allows disk swaps to seem instantaneous. What we could never do on a 4GB computer with a standard drive is possible - and fast - with an SSD.
Simply put - I won't consider buying a new computer with just a standard mechinical drive.
