POS - Port Operaton System

Working on Port operation system of one of the PSU. The processes have been mapped in std PM/SD functionalities. lots of developments requried to satisfy the requirement.
Can functionalities be used from Bulk transportation for mining - Marine Scheduling, Fleet mgt with Vessel Characteristics, Nomination, Berth planning board, Berth Scheduling, Laytime/Demurrage etc in ECC 6.0.
This will help to get integrated std SAP solution. Please provide your inputs.

Hi Avinash,
We are facing similar issue, I hear that Traders and Schedulers Workbench with is part if IS-OIL has these functionalities. The standard SAP does not have any mechanism to track this. Did you find any solution for your implementation. It would be great if you could share your experience in tackling this situation.

Open ports for siebel operating system

Hi,
I would like to know how can I find out all the port related to Siebel in any environment. I would also like to know whether they are listening or not.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Abhishek,
This is not a complete answer (hopefully others can help fill in the blanks). Keep in mind that "all ports related to Siebel" may also involve third party integrations and that will be highly dependent on the specifics of your environment. Also in a number of cases, the ports are configurable so might vary from implementation to implementation. For example CTI, Reports, Analytics, various external web services, and that type of stuff.
In regards to the Siebel application itself, the majority of the ports are dynamic so they may change from one Siebel startup to the next. In your siebsrvr log directory there is a log that we call the "enterprise log" -- it has a naming convention of the server name and the enterprise name. If you open it, it will show all the components that have been started on that server and the port numbers they are running on. It is at least a starting point ...
netstat can be used on some operating systems to view the ports that are open on a machine. You also try telnet to them to see if they are actually listening.
Others may have additional suggestions, but hope this is at least somewhat helpful.

Windows NDIS filter - how to check if port is used by operating system

Hi,
I am writing a windows NDIS filter driver (for versions 6.0,6.2.6.3) and would like to be able to query from inside the kernel about the status of a tcp port (is it in use?).
The function: FilterReceiveNetBufferLists is called when I receive a packet. Afterwards the tcp header of the packet is extracted. I want to check if the destination port which I've extracted from the header is being used on the local machine.
Can I use WSK Network API, WFP or some other API to check if a port is being used by the operating system? and if so how do I do it?
Thanks in advance!

This won't be easy, but you can get the address table by sending IOCTL_TCP_QUERY_INFORMATION_EX to \Device\TCP as documented
here. You'll need to spend some time looking at TCPIOCTL.H in the SDK, too. If you search the Internet for IOCTL_TCP_QUERY_INFORMATION_EX, you'll find some hints on how to use it.

Porting JVM to different operating systems

Hi,
I am developing my own operating system (called Muade OS) and I am interested in porting Java to it. I have studied java_md.c, and I know how to rewrite it for Muade OS, but I have absolutely no idea how to port JVM.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
:. I think the better way for you is creating your own Virtual Machine based on Java Virtual Machine Specification (see java.sun.com/docs/books). Not easy task, but a nice feature for your new operating system.

Hello to all. I'm not an expert in operating systems, and I pose this question: Can I upgrade from 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion on a Mac Book Pro

Hello to all. I'm not an expert in operating systems, and I pose this question: Can I upgrade from 10.6.8 to Mountain Lion on a Mac Book Pro

That depends on the Macbook Pro.The requirements for Mountain Lion are listed here:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
It is available from the Mac App Store (in Applications).
You should be aware that PPC programs (such as AppleWorks) will not run on Lion or above; and some other applications may not be compatible - there is a useful compatibility checklist at http://roaringapps.com/apps:table

My ipod will not charge will either a Memorex docking station or USB port on Windows based operating system. It did work at first but even after charging overnight I get a low battery warning and turn off.

I downloaded music from a Mac at my daughters house when I first got my Ipod several years ago and everything was fine. I continued to use a Memorex charging station (travel speaker). About 6 months ago it failed to charge on the docking station so I tried my USB port on my computer. It would not charge either but I also got a message saying I needed to reconfigure the Ipod to Windows (my operating system) but would loose all my data. Ouch! Any suggestions?

I would charge it for at least an hour (vice the two minutes you did) and then try resetting it. I am afraid that there may be internal damage that is causing the problem and repair is the ony option. Apple's prices are:

Using two seperate operating systems on a Mac, and a smart-phone to better integrated the flows!

I am considering to get a new Mac.
In that I want to be able to use two seperate operating systems. The Mac operating system and maybe either a windows or linux or an other useful and functional alternative!
The reason for this is, that I have several laptops incl. an iPad. I have concluded that iPad isnt that useful for my needs till now, its not very functional for my needs. I am also going to upgrade my smart mobile still considering functional alternatives (would like to hear yoru thoughts about this as well)!
I want to integrate them into one machine only and utilize cloud and / or an external Disk, and be better able to use useful apps and software that are not available on either one of the systems on their own my own system!
Usage will be both for biz and private, but at the end usefulness, and functionality will play a big part in my final decision!
Do you think this is practical, useful and cost effective way doing it the way I want to do?

My reason for wanting to have windows on my Mac is to be able to utilize, some applications that are not available for Mac OS!
In the past I raised few points relating to that, and wasnt able locate details to consider to have only a Mac system. Thats why I had to have few laptops to handle all! I got myself an iPad(1) but again it didnt met the exact needs that I have!
Thats why I am going to integrate all in one new system(Mac), and exchange and process while on the road via smartphone or something that is between a smartphone and tablet!
As to smartphones; I hear positive notes on iPhone, but seems to have some issues with its antena, the new Moterola seems great to exchange files anywhere, and the new Samsung Galaxy, very advanced. However what I lack at this stage is user experiences to see if any of them can meet my needs, and what the best combination could be for efficiency, speed and value for money(laptop, operating sytem, smartphone).
I am tired of crashes, frozen screens, or not able to open files or pics because they are not compatible in some ways! I try to maintain, clean and update my systems, but some stuff does comes in between despite all!
Anyhow, thank you for your support, I will try to do some reading on the keywords you used, I might get back to you for some more leads!
Thank you once again!:)

Integrating External Operating System Commands into ABAP program.

Hi folks,
using the transaction code sm69 it is possible to create an SAP command that's executing an operating system command.
Is it possible to integrate such an SAP command into our ABAP programs ?
How would we do so ?
Regards
Thomas

Hello Thomas,
We have an easier way of achieving this without declaring a command in SM69.
Try the below piece of code:
DATA: command LIKE rs37a-line.
DATA: BEGIN OF tabl OCCURS 0,
          line(2000),
      END OF tabl.
command = 'ls -l'.
CALL 'SYSTEM' ID 'COMMAND' FIELD command
              ID 'TAB'     FIELD tabl-*sys*.
Replace the string in the variable 'comand' with any UNIX command.

Neo2 "Error Loading Operating System" solved

hi, i've been struggling with this frikkin error for a while now and i've finally figured it out, after reading a gazillion posts and not finding an answer i thought i should post mine here for anyone who gets the same problem
my setup: msi k8n neo2 platinum, amd 64 3500, some ram and vid card, 200GB SATA drive
PLUG YOUR SATA DRIVE INTO SATA3or4 if you only have one or two, SATA1and2 are unstable(for ocing) and just dont work for some folks
now you boot from windows xp cd, everything seems to be goin fine, pc reboots and BHAM! error loading operating system... ?!
well don't go and enable RAID in your bios (unless you really want to use RAID) just goto the bios --> integrated peripherals --> IDE function setup
now look for SATA1/SATA2 DMA transfer and SATA3/SATA4 DMA transfer, enable these, or at least the one that you're using
reboot, boot from windows cd, quick format the partition you want to install windows on, do the windows thing and reboot, viola! your windows installation should now be booting
if that doesn't solve your problem then i'm a greased weasel!
ps. another solution (that i used the first time round but annoyed me cos i'm really really obsessive about these things) is to run partition magic and clear the drive of partitions, then make a primary partition and a logical drive within that partition and set it to active, this worked for me
xcept i only use 1 HDD with two partitions, a smaller one that gets formatted all the time and off of which i run windows and a larger one that i keep all my stuff on, the trick was the put the booting partition at the end of the disk and not at the beginning like you usually would do, it's got something to do with the 1024 cylinder boundary but i don't understand that tho...

I had the same problem, easy solution, use Nforce 6.37 beta driver pack. and It will work OK! A way to enter the system is:
That is a probelm with SATA drivers, you may also install WIN XP making a disk for SATA driver from the Nforce 6.37 drivers in IDE\WINXP
Press F8,
Wait about 10 Secs.
Enter Normally, It may boot.
Regards
You may connect the SATA drive in either 1 - 2 or 3 - 4 Sata ports It will work OK, do not use DMA transfer it will make the Disk slower

Apply Operating System Failed

Environment: SCCM 2012 R2 CU3
Background:
Prestaged image was applied to machine. The prestaged image was created based on our old TS which only contains winpe boot image and the windows 7 operating system. WINPE v4.0 was still used in this prestaged image. We recently updated our TS with WINPE
v5.1(we did not create a new prestage image) in order to accommodate the installation of SCCM client R2 CU3 during the build.
Build Process:
Powered on the machine and boot to the hard disk(since prestaged image was already applied to the machine). After selecting our TS, it starts to download the WINPE v5.1 and then asks for a reboot. After the reboot, it starts to apply the operating
system but will fail afterwards. Snippet of the error in smsts.log can be found below.
What we have noticed:
If we don't change the boot image of the TS to WINPE v5.1 and still use WINPE v4.0, we don't encounter the error. The only time we encounter the error is when we change the boot image of the TS to WINPE v5.1. Note that I can ping the FQDN of the Primary
server and the dp when using WINPE v5.1

WINPE v5.1 is not supported and does not work, are you sure you are using it and not PE 5.0? Note that the ADK for Win 8.1 Update does *not* create WinPE 5.1 boot images, it creates WinPE 5.0 boot image that you can then modify to be WinPE 5.1 by injecting
the appropriate updates.
The above log file clearly shows authentication issues and calls out the fact that no Network Access Account is set.

Need a printer driver for a PIXMA MG2900 that will work on my MacBook Pro Operating System OSX 10.4.11

I have just purchased a Canon Pixma MG2900 printer and need to find a driver for this printer that will work with my MacBook Pro Operating System OSX Version 10.4.11.
I was directed to iTunes PIXMA/MAXI, but it didn't seem to download for me. It did say that it was for IPads or IPhones, not sure that it's intended for use on a computer.

Probably best to go to a library and submit your resume there.
You can make many web browsers claim to be ie. Here is how.
TenFourFox -- It's a port of the latest FireFox to run on older hardware and software.

Installing Multiple Operating Systems with grub and Arch Linux

NOTE: Please keep in mind that there are many different ways to achieve this same result using various loop and ramdisk methods, read this with a separate window to jot down your comments and suggestions... this is ongoing for me so any help would be appreciated!
Read the full article at Install Multiple Os without cds
This is my first post and I plan on making this topic an official HOWTO with www.tldp.org.
I have been into the computer security scene since 1990, but I realized that I had very little experience with the various LInux, Unix, and alternative Operating systems out there.
I have a CD-RW drive but being a struggling computer security researcher I had no money for blank cd-recordables. What follows is how I managed to install various operating systems on my computer (1 hard drive) without having to burn to a CD the ISO and then boot from that.
I first partitioned my 120GB harddrive into 10 partitions, the 2nd partition is a small swap and the last partition is extra large because it holds all the ISO images..
I then wrote a small shell script to automatically download (I love wget!) the following.
OpenBSD
IpCOP
Libranet
Arch-Linux
Fire
Local Area Security
Packet Master
Devil-Linux
FreeBSD
Knoppix
Helix
Gentoo
Yoper-Linux
NetBSD
RedHat
Slackware
The script also downloaded Installation manuals and md5 checksums.. (let me know if I should post... its pretty unsophisticated
I installed Slackware (personal favorite) on hda1 using my last blank CD-R, note that I do not have a separate boot partitino. (Should I?). I also installed grub on the MBR. I love grub, if you read through the man pages and all info you can find about grub, you can learn a whole lot. Grub has much more features and capability than lilo, even though lilo comes installed by default with slack.
I organize my kernel situation as follows... In my /boot directory, I mkdir KERNEL, CONFIG, MAP, INITRD and that is a good way for me to keep my kernels and everything organized.. Another good way is a separate dir for each new kernel.
Since Arch-Linux is a solid distro, I'll use that as a first example.
Here is the Arch-Linux section of my shell script
goge Arch-Linux
$w http://puzzle.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/archlinux/arch-0.6.iso
$w http://unc.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/archlinux/arch-0.6.md5sum
$w http://www.archlinux.org/docs/en/guide/install/arch-install-guide.html
md55
cat arch-0.6.md5sum
md5sum arch-0.6.iso
md55
The first thing to do is to mount the downloaded ISO image so we can use it as if it were an actual CD.
mount -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0 cdimage /mnt/cdrom
Where cdimage= the ISO image. EX. /usr/local/src/ISO/Linux/Arch-Linux/arch-0.6.iso
This mounts the iso as /mnt/cdrom.
Next you need to copy /mnt/cdrom to a separate partition for the booting process. So mkfs.ext2 /dev/hda9. ( I prefer reiserfs or even XFS to ext but if you use something other than ext2 you could run into some problems because some of the installation kernels and initrds don't include support for reiserfs and so can't recognize the files. Although you could use mkinitrd to create a new initrd with reiserfs support, that might be pushin it IMO... I use the 9th partition consistently for this. I know there is a "right" way to copy the /mnt/cdrom files so everything stays the way it is supposed too, using tar or cpio, but I'm lazy so I just do cp -rp.
(What is the tar or cpio commands to copy with correct permissions etc??)
So you mount the 9th partition as whatever, say /mnt/hd and then copy the files. Now what?
Now edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst file to include the specific options to boot arch-linux installation.
A good idea is to find the isolinux.cfg file somewhere on the distro cd, this will tell you what to include in the menu.lst.
Here is the section in my menu.lst
title Arch Install
root (hd0,8)
kernel /isolinux/vmlinuz load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 root=/dev/rd/0
initrd=/isolinux/initrd.img
This should be self-explanatory. The root (hd0,8) is pointing to partition 9. So the rest of the commands start from partition 9.
When you experience problems, remember you can always edit the grub boot options by typing 'e' and then edit the section. Also, a good idea is to include several variations in your menu.lst so you can easily try other ways to boot efficiently. And, remember to read up on all the installation guides that come with your distro, specifically, hard-disk installs.
There are special cases, Gentoo, has a semi-new compressed filesystem called squashfs. BTW, this is AWESOME, so check it out. It has to be compiled into the kernel, so some work is in order, but use this recompile to optimize your kernel. You can get the squashfs patch for almost any kernel. I use the latest stable 2.6 kernel. Squashfs is incredible and although I don't think you need it to install from ISO, you do need it to expand the livecd.squashfs filesystem that comes with the cd.
Heres a sample Gentoo section from my menu.lst
title Gentoo Install
root (hd0,8)
kernel /isolinux/gentoo root=/dev/ram0
initrd=/isolinux/gentoo.igz init=/linuxrc acpi=off looptype=squashfs loop=/livecd.squashfs cdroot vga=791 splash=silent
A nother' tip is the shell that is provided if you experience problems, typically busybox or ash. The key tools to get you going from here is mount and chroot. Sometimes you will need to manually create a simulated file system and then chroot into it. For instance, you might have to create boot, etc, bin, directories on the target partition.
I generally install each OS onto the next partition (careful of the logical partition) and add it to my menu.lst after install. A good idea is after installation, copy the kernel and initrd(if there is one) to the slackware(or whatever) boot partition on hda1. I copy kernels to /boot/KERNEL/ and initrd's to /boot/INITRD, then menu.lst is more organized...
You then need to add an updated section to your menu.lst (just comment out the install section for later)
Here is the finished arch-linux section from menu.lst
title Arch Linux 6
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 ro root=/dev/hdc3
This doesn't use my convenient boot/KERNEL/vmlinuz26 as you can tell by setting the root to partition 3.
***NOTE: Make a backup of MBR using dd and save to floppy, also backup the partition table to floppy, using cfdisk or parted. And boot disks (I use 1 with grub, and 1 with slack, and tomsbootdisk) will invariably come in handy. Tomsbootdisk is recommended, and make the grub boot disk when you install grub. install to floppy.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The final result after some fun experimenting, is when I boot, I have a cool grub boot screen come up with the option to boot into whatever OS I want, this is handy for multiple reasons. One good thing to do after this is to port scan and vuln scan each OS, after you update of course. Write this stuff down and you will know the weaknesses/strengths of the various OS's.
I can boot a custom Firewall, snort, or multiple honeypots using this procedure, as well as a graphical kde environment with a kernel optimized for graphics and my processor/architecture, or an environment devoted to forensics or even an environment suitable for programming.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
P.S. Some of the cooler alternative operating systems are BeOS 5, EOS, ER_OS, V2_OS, and my personal favorite Menuet. Menuet is 100% assembly graphical operating system that fits on a floppy. Its f'in money!
This should be a good enough example to get you started, this kind of thing should be learned and not just copied... Knowing how to do this stuff could prove to be exceptionally useful...

Yours sincerely! I just bought a Sony DCR-SD1000 camera only when installing the cd drivers not supported by the operating system Machintosh. I've contacted the seller said the store did not provide for the apple os. How can I move all the files on the camera the port out is to use a USB data cable to a laptop for my macbookpro can not read the contents of the file and the camera. I also want to use the lens on the camera as a substitute for the embedded camera on my macbookpro, what should I do to replace the embedded camera on macbookpro with sony camera so that the camera could be more variety and can I record when I turned macbookpro . Please help for this so that I can quickly capture the results from sony camera to my macbookpro. Thank you.

See this page http://macosx.com/forums/networking-compatibility/296947-sony-camcorder-my-mac.h tml - might be some helpful tips there.

Operating system causes loss of data during writing to file continuously

Within a while loop I read data from serial port (9,5KByte/sec, bluetooth dongle via serial port protocol) and writes them to a file (text-file) continuously. The operating system interrupts the while loop periodically which causes a loss of data. If I read data from serial port without saving them no data get lost.
E.g. on my PC the OS (W2K) wakes up a second hard disk exactly once per hour which freezes the data saving process to the 'saving' hard disk (and therefore also the while loop, data reading) for about 5-6 sec. On a Laptop the OS (XP, one single hard disk) interrupts the data saving process every 10 minutes for about 1 sec. during the first hour and not any longer afterwards.
I have al
so tried to use the 'deny read/write' option of the 'Open File.vi' to prevent other file sweeping applications (backup, anti-virus, Fast Find) to open the file simultaneously which could temporarily deny you write access to the file - no success.
BTW, this concerns also the compiled version of my LV7.1-program.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Tobi

Use two loops, one for reading the serial data and a separate one for writng to the file. The first loop reads the serial port and writes the data to a queue. The second one reads the queue and writes to the file. Put a delay in each loop, perhaps zero milliseconds in the serial loop and 10 ms in the file loop (try various values). This causes the LV scheduler to share CPU time between the two loops.
Now the serial loop will acquire the data and store it in the queue which also serves as a buffer. If the file loop gets blocked by the OS, the data just stacks up in the queue.
