Implementing change to Task Templates for known servers

We found that some of our Task Templates are pointing to old server names no longer available and have updated the Task Templates, but when the task executes, the task instance still shows the old server names. We have restarted the application server instance also with same results. Is there something else that needs to occur for the xchanges to actually tak eplace in IDM> Thanks.

Sorry, possibly I am making incorrect assumptions. I am assuming that "knownServers" is the list of preferred servers to run the task in, and that the task defaults to the main server if those are not found but maybe I am wrong. We are trying to have a specific report run under a specific container.
Say we have 5 containers defined as servers. When the Task Templates were originally created, the "knownServers" element listed, for example, "Andy", "Barney", Charlie", "David", and "Evan".
Since then, the names have changed to, for example "Paula", "Rose", "Sally, "Teresa", and "Wanda". We never changed the Task Templates, so at this point the Task Templates STILL show the names "Andy" -" Evan" under "known Servers".
So, we changed the Task Template "known Servers" to ,for example, only "Paula". But, when the Task Begins (in this case a report), and you view the Task Instance, it still shows known servers of "Andy" -" Evan".
My questions are:
1. Is my assumption about "knownServers" incorrect?
2. Is there something else required to have the Task Instances pick up the new "knownServers" attribute?
3. Can anything else that can be done to have Task Instance runs specifically in a named server (container)?
Thanks for any help.

How to change the default template for a concurrent prog ?

Hi i have Std Conc prog "Payables Posted Invoice Register". It has a std template with same name "Payables Posted Invoice Register". Now i have created a custom template and attached it to the same Data Definition.
The Requirement is that only particular users will use the custom template, hence they will chose it while running. BUt what happened now is in the Conc Prog submit screen it is taking my custom template as the default one.
Hence majority of the users wudnt look at the template and get the custom o/p.
I want to make the std template itself as the default template and make the custom template available to chose for a smaller set of users.
Thanks,
Vj

Hi Shadab,
Yes, that is a valid work around but my task is not to create a seperate data definition and a seperate concurrent prog for it. I HAD to use the standard concurrnet prog but jsut add my template as a non defaulted template.
Anyways, i have solved it now. This is how
System Adminitration => Concurrent Programs => select ur Concurrent Prog => Update => OnSite settings .... select the template you want to default.
Thanks,
Vijay

How do I change Excel calendar template for it to be 1st April to 31st March

Would appreciate some help on this one.
From Office.com Templates
I've downloaded the calendar "Family calendar (any year, Mon-Sun)
I've changed the layout so
that it
runs on the financial year from 1st
April
to 31st
March. But I'm struggling to
get the January to
March section to display the
correct days for the following year. - As in to
say, in the 2015/16 calendar, I need Jan to March to
match 2016 days to dates.
the formula for January is
=IF(DAY(JanSun1)=1,"",IF(AND(YEAR(JanSun1+1)=CalendarYear,MONTH(JanSun1+1)=1),JanSun1+1,""))
So what do I need
to change
in
that formula
to get it
displaying the next
year's dates on
the right days?
thanks

Absolutely Brilliant.
thanks for your help, Hans
Managed to complete Step
2 OK. But on step 1
I had to Edit the "BlankCalendar"!
lines before the second CalendarYear would save.
thanks again :)

Change default template for a given Theme

Can we change the default template for a theme ? (if yes, how). I had selected theme 3 (business) during the creation of my application with 2 level tabs. After creating parent tabs and standard tabs and getting it working I changed the theme to theme 12 (blue). When the theme got switched, the default application page template became a 1 level tab.
This was because for Theme 12, the default Page template is 1 level tab. I want to change this default Page template to 2 level tabs. I couldn't see option of making this as a default.

Sorry, I found the answer in the documentation in Chapter 7 under
"Changing Default Templates in a Theme".

HPDM 4.6 - _Enroll Certificate with SCEP Task Template missing

I recently upgraded our HP DM to v 4.6 as I was searching for a better way to deploy CA certificates to our t510 thin clients, and this version supports SCEP.
I also downloaded the Client Kit ThinPro-4.4-SCEP-0.0.3 software (via the Template > Import > HP FTP Software Component Browser) and this is visible in the list of Task Templates.
The problem I have is that the HP DM User Guide for this version outlines Enrolling Certificates using SCEP by double clicking on the _Enroll Certificate with SCEP task template, which I don't seem to have?
How do I obtain this particular task template?

I have already downloaded that add-on. It extracts to a .xar file, which I placed in the HP Smart Client Service\auto-update path. This is the add-on that gets pushed out to the clients at power-on.
What I need is the _Enroll Certificate with SCEP Task Template for HPDM. I've tried the template import function but I don't seem to have the necessary .jar file?
Am I missing something? I'm a bit of a noob with the HPDM software...

Client communication port for workgroup servers

We have SCCM 2012 R2 Single Primary Site in intranet. We have PKI with ADCS 2012. We are in process of mirating to HTTPS communication using certificates. We have few servers in workgroup and we plan to manage those servers with configuration manager by
manually installing client and specifying smsmp=sccm fqdn. for lookup management point.
Can we change client communication port for these servers?
For successful client communication do we need to open any ports except 443 in firewall?
What all ports needed to be open in this scenario?

Hi,
You configure the Communications port for the MP in the site so they must use the same ports, you can configure alternate ports so if it cannot communicate on port 443 it tries the next port.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg712276.aspx
443 is sufficient, the client will also try to communicate on port 10123 for Client Notification,
http://www.google.se/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&ved=0CCsQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fblogs.technet.com%2Fb%2Fconfigmgrteam%2Farchive%2F2012%2F09%2F27%2Ffast-channel-for-system-management.aspx&ei=1dAhU7qqOIL8ygPb1IHQAQ&usg=AFQjCNF4_G2sZBMbDDtJa95LBx7EYYBrRw
But it should fallback to 443 if not available as well.

Impact of changing MVG web template (CCPopupListMvg.swt)

Hello All,
I want to know, what's the impact of changing Siebel Web Template for MVG applet.
Thanks,
Soumya Sekhar Samanta

Hi,
It all depends on what you want to change. If you provide more specific information I will be able to help you better.
Basicly:
In our project we used to modify css-file and web template files. It works fine as long as you test your modifications. If you want to change the layout (color, padding, width) there is not mucht to test. Just make sure the controls are properly displayed in the UI after the modification.
A bit trickier ist it to add more controls or new sections in the web template. Siebel uses control ids in the template which you see as placeholders in siebel tools. So you have to make sure that you wont use the same contol id s more than once otherwise you will have a problem that can lead to core dumps in the siebel client. (Only ListBody and ListHeader share the same control Id..) Every control id has to be unique. Not only in CCPopupListMvg but also in all included web templates files (e.g. CCListHeader.swt).
Be carefull with lists because control id's will be set in for loops. Also List Header and List Body need to have the same control id so siebel can mapp the caption of a list column to the list header.
(e.g. CCListBody <swe:for-each startValue="501" count="40" ....>, CCListHeader <swe:for-each startValue="501" count="40" ....>)
Whatever you do don't remove any control ids. If you do, controls that are mapped to the control id in siebel tools will not be shown in the client anymore. You will not get an exception. It just wont be displayed. So the thread is that the applets will not work properly anymore and you won't even know it untill a user misses a column or a button or whatever control was mapped to it. If you still do, you will have to check every applet in siebel tools.
Also you have to check if CCPopupListMvg.swt is included in any other web template because your changes would affect those web templates as well.
You have to concider that siebel does not know about your changes. So in future releases they will still use vanilla CCPopupListMvg.swt and maybe also modify it in vanilla. The template will be overwritten on siebel upgrades. So you will have to make your modifications after every siebel upgrade again.
I hope this helps.
Regards
Claudio

Change the Page Template

I can change the Page Template, for example, "One Level Tabs" to "Popup" at runtime?

(sorry to budge in!)
The question still remains: why would you want to do this? Or maybe, why not either make the page tab-based OR pop-up? My worry would be that your user opens the popup page, then navigates back to wherever the 'tabbed' version is and attempts to load that - what would happen then?
If there is a solid design reason to do this, you could probably achieve it by making two copies of the same page - one being the 'tab' version and one the 'popup' (although further changes to the page would require double the work).

Where to change notification email template?

Do you know where to change the default template for the system-generated notification e-mails sent to users when they have a new instance in their worklist?

Putting it in the right place is the key.
I was on the wrong track following conf/* even though I found that file there to modify as noted by ruben and Oracle's response to my trouble ticket to them.
Ariel's response on the associated forum linked by Dan was the correct answer.
Getting the engine home dir from the Process Admin console and then just put the file there did it.
Did not have to bounce the engine or WL even though I thought I had to when it did not work when done in conf/*. Did not have to do the -D.
For those interested, Oracle's detail response on the file itself is an interesting read. Ignore the conf/* reference.
"To customize it you have to edit the activityNotification.mail file located in
the conf directory in the ALBPM installation directory (i.e. ~studio/conf or ~enterprise/conf).
Copy this file to the Server Home directory. If it is not copied the customization does not take effect and the default mail is sent.
You can define a dynamic mail content editing this XML file. The ALBPM Server
generates the e-mail notificactions (when enabled) for each process activity using this file.
The text to be sent in the e-mail can be defined:
• by process-activity, or
• by process, or
• a default mail.
The search to find the text is by tag.
First, it looks for the process tag. If found, it searches for the activity tag.
If the activity tag is not found, it searches for the default tag within the
process tag.
If the process tag is not found then it searches for the default mail tag.
The XML is structured to conform to the following tags:
• process id: The id of the process that owns the activity for which you
define the custom email notifications.
• activity id: The id of the activity for which a custom mail needs to be
sent.
• title : In between this tag, provide the title for the email sent in the
specified activity.
• message : In between this tag, enter the message to be sent in the selected
business process activity.
<mail>
<process id='processId'>
<activity id= 'activityId>
<title>
The Instance :INSTANCE_ID/ has reached :ACTIVITY/ ...
</title>
<message>
The Instance is :INSTANCE_LINK"here"/
</message>
</activity>
<activity id='activityId2'>
< /activity>
<Default>
<title>
The Instance :INSTANCE_ID/ has reached :ACTIVITY/ ...
</title>
<message>
Link :INSTANCE_LINK/
</message>
</Default>
</process>
<process id='processId2'>
<process>
</mail>
When a message contains a place holder like:
• :INSTANCELINK/ (a link to the instance), or
• :INSTANCELINK"LINKNAME"/ (a link to the instance with the name of LinkName),
or
• :ACTIVITY/ (name of the activity that has been reached), or
• :VAR/ (where VAR is the id for a process instance variable or the id of an external variable);
these place holders are replaced at runtime by the proper value accordingly to the defined mappings at development time.
If within the message tag you set headers="true"
<message html="true" headers="true">
therefore, in the mail subject you will receive the "ActivityName",
"InstanceId" and "ProcessName".
Note: If for some reason the xml file does not exist, a non modifiable mail is sent and an exception is logged.
The activityNotification.mail file, needs to be overwriten in the runtime environment.
The customization of the activityNotification.mail is per installation, not per process or per application.
There is no know way to customize the activityNotification.mail per application
If you take a look at the content of this file, you will see entries of this format:
<process id="/OU/ProcessName">
This allows creating specific email templates PER PROCESS. This to some extent allows the customization for Application (set of processes).
You can have multiple of "<process id=...> tags in the file."

Ova template for cucm

hi,
If I use the template for 2500 users, and my cluster with 9 cucm servers, with only 4 of them have callmanager service, does it mean that i can have 2500 x 4 = 10000 phones in my cluster?
I am wondering if we can deploy different capacity of cucm within a cluster, e.g. publisher and subscriber with call manager service deployed using 10000 users template, while those servers without callmanager service deployed using 2500 users template?
thanks.

Technically, if you build no redundancy. Keep in mind that CUCM should be deployed either in 1:1 or 2:1 redundancy model which means for each call processing server there should be backup server or for 2 call processing servers there is 1 backup server. Also, the phone count is marketing term, 2500 phones would be supported if the server does nothing else which is never the case as you will have gateways, trunks, media resources, etc, etc so the count goes down fast. You can use the Cisco sizing tool described in SRND to size your cluster appropriately.
Technically you can use different OVA templates for different servers, but that is never recommended.

Edit the task flow which is default in template for top navigation

Hi,
Where can I get the the default task flow file (i. e. spacesNavigationPanel) for collaborative with top navigation template?
I want to edit the task flow for navigation.
Thanks,
A

Here are the steps to find the default task flow file (i. e. spacesNavigationPanel) for collaborative with top navigation template :
Note: I am assuming you're using Oracle WebCenter Portal 11.1.1.8.x
Goto Portal Builder - Assets tab localhost:8888/webcenter/portal/builder/administration/assets
Select Page Templates under Structure from left side pane and you'll see list of out of the box page templates (source not editable) and custom page templates (source editable) on the right side pane.
Take a copy of the existing 'Collaborative with Top Navigation' page template
Select the row 'Collaborative with Top Navigation'
Click on Actions -> Copy
Change the display name (Default : Copy of Collaborative with Top Navigation) and description if needed.
Click OK to create a copy of 'Collaborative with Top Navigation' page template
Select the row w.r.t. newly created page template Copy of 'Collaborative with Top Navigation'
Click the checkbox to make it Available (Optional if you want to use this template later)
Click on Actions -> Edit Source to edit the source of selected page template.
You'll see template code in the window (by default).
Click on 'Page Definition' tab at the bottom of the template code window i.e. Switch to Page Definition tab.
Under Executables, you can see the taskflow code w.r.t. spacesNavigationPanel as follows : <taskFlow id="spacesNavigationPanel" taskFlowId="/oracle/webcenter/webcenterapp/view/taskflows/navigation/SpacesNavigationTopPanelCollaborative.xml#SpacesNavigationTopPanel" Refresh="ifNeeded" activation="deferred" xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/controller/binding"/>
I hope it answers your question.

Adjust changes in Implementation Project back to Template Project

Hello All,
Please can you help with transaction SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE, the case is as follow:
STEP 1
- Template project is created including process structure and documents, template is activated
- Implementation project: is created derived from template project.
- In Template project: Change in pocess node made: added an new process node
- Run SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE with checked box "New Version of Original" and chosen project: Implementation project
- Implementation project: the yellow boxes appears on the appropriate place and button "adjust to original" is used.
So far, so good
STEP 2
- Implementation project: a new process node is added, project is saved
- Run SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE with checked box "'Current Version in Project" and chosen project: Implementation project
- Template project: no changes are visible in SOLAR01 or SOLAR02
- In SOLAR01: settings -> User specific -> box checked "Dislay changes made in project"
So far, NOT good.
Resume:
- using transaction SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE from Template -> Implementation Project works according documentation
- using transaction SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE from Implementation Project -> Templates does not work according documentation
Does anybody recognise this?
Or do I oversee something?
System: SSM 4.0 updated to SP13
Thanks in advance
Rutger Koppelaar

Hi Rutger (& all others watching this thread),
I would like to make certain corrections to one of the points posted by me:
2) Within a Template Project, any actual changes to the document does not offer itself as a 'change' while doing comparison on Implementation Project. In other words, after a given Scenario and all its associated documentation are copied into an Implementation project, if a given document at a given node needs to be edited, it's better to create a new document and upload it in Template Project than to open & change the same document. If the same document is edited, the Compare and Adjust cannot see that as 'difference'.
On the above point, I have now see better/different results with my recent work; not sure if this is version/ support package specific.
Environment:
SolMan 4.0
SAP_BASIS - Release 700 Level 0013
SAP_ABA - Release 700 Level 0013
ST - Release 400 Level 0014
Assumption: Both the Template and Implementation Projects are in the same SolMan instance and not a case where the Template is being transported into another instance!
Findings (please bear with this verbose description; one day I intend creating a Blog instead, to list all these points):
(1) In General Documentation Tab of Template Project, any changes made is instantly visible in General Documentation Tab of the Implementation project - not even dependent on running SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE transaction
If you indeed run this transaction - in foreground or background, and later check the Implementation Project, it would not highlight that node as having undergone any change. However, if you double click the document itself, you'd be pleasantly surprosed that it opens the most updated version you maintained in the Template Project. No need for 'Compare and Adjust'.
(2) In Test Cases Tab - any change you make to Test Document in Template Project is again instantly available for the Implementation Project that had inherited the document, provided no manual changes were done to that document in the Implementaiton Project directly. Again, no need to run SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE transaction or the subsequent 'Compare and Adjust' function
2a) If, however, the Test Document was altered in Implementation Project subsequently, the chain gets broken (in my understanding so far), and any subsequent changes made in Template Project does not become 'instantly' visible in Implementation Project - the two behave as though they are different documents
In such a case, if you desire to 'restore' the supremacy of Template Project's contents, run SA_PROJECT_UPGRADE transaction, and after the background job finishes, visit Implementation Project concerned. The node where the Documents differ is not highlighted (unfortunately). However, if you are aware of that node, and hit 'Compare and Adjust' button the ensuing Window does tell you with a # sign on the right hand panel that the Document has indeed changed in the original. You can 'adjust' that and save.
Once this is done, and also you vow to not change the document in Implementation Project directly, the link between the two is kind of re-established. Any subsequent alterations you make in the Test Case at Template Project would be instantly visible from Implementation Project, as before !
I have tried to explain precisely what I experiemented and found. I hope this works consistently
The ways in which Document linkages are established and pointers to KW object IDs work is rather inscrutable for me, without ABAP support.
I'll update any further findings here.
Please keep a watch.
Thanks and regards,
Srini

Can enable a site template for subsites via editing webtemp.xml but how do I change in my solution files?

I have a template wsp that I deploy then create a new top level site. The template is available perfectly.
I then try to create a subsite and the template isn't available. So I went to .../14/TEMPLATE/1033/XML/WEBTEMP.XML
I added in my template...
<Template Name="MYTEMPLATE" SetupPath="SiteTemplates\MyTemplate" ID="202">
<Configuration ID="0" Title="My Site Title" Hidden="FALSE" ImageUrl="" Description="A site I created."></Configuration>
</Template>
Now after an IIS reset the templates show under the "Custom" tab perfectly.
BUT the question is what file do I change in my actual solution files before I package everything up? What would add this to the webtemp.xml automatically for me when my solution is deployed?
Thanks,

The terminology is confusing, but what you are actually adding is a "Site Definition". Site Templates are .wsp files that can be saved as a snapshot of an existing site for re-use. These .wsp files are stored in the site template gallery of a
site collection. There are also Web Templates that are similar to Site Definitions since they use an ONET.XML file, but they are activated using a Feature. Together Site Definitions, Site Templates, and Web Templates are known as Site Templates
in the User Interface. But each one is deployed and activated differently. Site Devfinitions are normally added to the environment by using Module features to deploy the site definition in its own subdirectory where the other site definitions are
stored. A custom webtemp file is also deployed instead of editing the existing file. SahrePoint will pick up any file that is stored in that location that starts with webtemp and ends in .xml. So you can deploy a new webtemp file called Webtemp_custom.xml.
If you are actually deploying a site template then you just upload it to the site template gallery of the site collection. If you still aren't seeing it in the custom tab then its probably because the root site has restricted the available site templates
for creating subsites. This is common in Publishing sites, but can be done in any site. In Publishing sites there is a link on the site settings page that you can use to select what site templates are available to create sub sites. In non-publishing
sites it requires powershell
