Interesting observation on points

I guess there was nothing in the old system to prevent this, and it is certainly not a "pressing" issue (yet), but I just noticed an interesting behavior in this thread : alter tablespace sa online;
OP posts a question, then supplies his own answer, then marks his own answer as "correct". Presto! Self-awarded points.

Mark a post is now the only one solution to mark a thread as solved. And if you mark your own thread as correct, not sure your counter will be increase. At least, I read somewhere here it won't.

Interesting observation about iView timeout - Need Suggestions

Hi,
We have an iview which has the timeout property set to 180 seconds. Recently we observed that we have been getting iview timeout errors for this iview. As most of you are aware the message appears as "The iView has timed out. There is no cached content to display. Click 'Reload' to retrieve updated content. You may need to wait for the cache to retrieve the content from the source. Reload"
Normally the content in this iView does not take more than 100 milli seconds to be retrieved. But looks like we are having occassional hiccups where the backend calls are failing (or taking too long) and hence the iview timout is occuring. What I observed is that if the iview times out once, then from the next time the timeout message appears straight away without even trying to execute the iveiw. This happens even if you logout and login even with a different user.
So i am sure that the server/iview (or something else) is remembering or caching that an iview timeout has occurred once on this iview and hence when we access the iview again it is not even bothering to execute and showing the iview timout message stragiht away. The only solution to this problem is to bounce the node on which the problem is coming (which is bad).
Is there any setting where we can tell not to cache these iView timouts? In this way the iview will execute the every time (even if an iview timeout has happenned earlier) and we will get the results.
Any help in this is highly appreciated.
Regards,

Hi Sudhir,
Please try this let me know
1. When the timeout occurs, can you refresh your browser cahce or delete all the cookies and history of browser. Re-try and see if the iview is re-executed.
2. Check the backend when you call the iview, how much time is process taking.
3. Check the parameter icm/keep_alive_timeout, if it is 60. you increare it 90 or 120.
This would be my starting point.
Thank You,
Praveen

Interesting observation/ possible bug

I am still investigating this issue, but here is something discovered using the WCS templates to push out a wlan config to WLC 4402 controllers.
I created a new wlan template with wpa security, etc and broadcast ssid turned off (unchecked), saved it and then applied it to my controllers.
I then opened up the web interface of one of the controllers to verify and saw the new wlan, but it had broadcast ssid enabled! I then went to each controller and discovered the same issue. I do not recall seeing any caveats for this but will check again.
Running WCS ver 4.0.96.0
wlc ver 4.0.207.0

I observed the same phenomena... however, with the massive number of changes I needed to address, I didn't follow up with a TAC case though...

Set observer pivot point

I want to adjust pivot point at bottom side of the cylinder.
How can i do this?

It doesn't matter if you want to rotate the cylinder or to
modify its height.
If you cannot alter the pivot (of any 3D model) in your 3D
modeler, James gave you a good advice.
In your case, all you have to do is to modify the scale (on
the desired direction) of the group.
The cylinder (a child) must obey!

Interesting Observation and fix for crashing while moving / trimming clips

Since day one I have been plagued by STP crashing when I tried to trim clips or move them in time. Recently I noticed this only happens on projects sent to STP from FCP. New projects have never had this horrible symptom.
So I copied all the assets of a project to the clipboard and pasted them into a new empty document and the problem went away. I needed to tweak the positions of some of the automation anchor points but that was minor.
I just thought I'd share that with you folks. After this current project is complete I install FCP Studio 3 and the new STP. Maybe the bug is fixed in the new version.

Nice workaround. Thanks for sharing it!

Interesting observation when doing concurrent updates using JE

Hi,
I had some interesting results when i tested JE against C version.
In JE, when 2 thread are updating same record on a page; the performance is same as the core version; as expected.
But when 2 threads are updating 2 different records on the same page; the performance of JE was almost still the same as the previous case. I expected major performance upgrade due to record-level locking(so concurrent updates to different records on same page should have been very fast); but it was not so.
Can anyone explain why?
I am using DB Env with transactions and locking ON. Record size is very small.
Thanks.

Hi,
In JE, when 2 thread are updating same record on a pageJE is NOT a page based system, so I'm not sure what you mean here.
Are you getting Lock conflicts on either system?
What * performance* are you measuring?
You haven't provided much detail about what you are trying to accomplish.

Interesting Observation with K8N Neo Platinum, USB2.0, and CanoScan

I bought a scanner that is a USB2.0 Scanner... the thing is quick as all heck. CanoScan 4200F.
I kept having problems though where if I gave it instructions too quickly (ie., do a preview, and hit SCAN before the scan head returned to the top of the scanner) it would wreak havoc on the scanner, the motor would freak out and the scanhead would do crazy things like bang against the topmost point of its travel... It would get into this state and then the only thing I could do to stop it (would continue to do it even after a full power off of all devices plus computer) was uninstall the scanner drivers and reinstall them.
Tried the scanner on my wife's machine and didn't have the same problem. Commands would "wait" until the scanner was ready. When I put it back on my own machine, I moved the USB port so instead of using one of the on-board USB ports, I used one of the ones on the D-Bracket. Well, now it's still using USB2.0 mode, but it does the "wait" thing now and the problem has been eliminated. It's almost like the ports on the mobo aren't "queueing" USB requests to the device. I'm 95% sure that after the port move, the problem is completely solved. I'll check back if it rears it's head again.
Thought I'd post in case anyone sees any similar issues.

Wonder if there's a good way to test something like this
- Thought we'd found it - plug your CanoScan 4200F in.
That seems to be the difficult given the plethora of different usb devices.
I'm baffled by the difference as the JUSB1 & 2 sockets are in effect usb sockets the same as any others, just different plugs. Don't know if their on a seperate chip similar to the 2 sata pairs.
It's something to bear in mind though for others having quircky usb behaviour.

Arp poison interesting observation/ possible bug

I witnessed something very interesting yesterday.
We had a client attach a device with a static ip which happened to be the same as one of our controller service interfaces, but in a different vlan, but one that the controller has a dynamic interface in as well.
All of a sudden, all the APs on the affected controller started disassociating! It took a while to clear out the arp cache and get things settled down, but it has been stable for 16 hours since we disconnected the wired client.
As the dynamic interface is not actively in use, I have disabled it for now.

The rogue ip showed up on guest vlan "D", but it was the same ip address as the service interface on one WLC controller. The wlc had a dynamic interface in vlan "D" as well.

Interesting observation about internships

I could see that. I can figure out some stuff, if you have some odd program, or have seen some sort of bug before just tell me and it will be done. I figured out a lot of clonezilla by myself, but I had also worked with ghost before interface, storage was different, but same concept really.
Place I was trying to setup a Hitachi SAN (from like 04) I told my boss (the tech)I didn't think this was a great investment in utilizing as sat so many years, no software, docs for it, and huge waste of power when you could out the same storage in a small NAS now. She said admin want's done so let's try and do it. I kept running into issues, one time the admin was in our office I asked him takes me to some other Hitachi NAS that linked to a MCdata box, he goes back to office says that a Cisco intelligent FC switch is the controller even when the...

I've done a couple of internships in I.T depts at different places. Both of them I noticed this which was a bit surprising.
The first one I knew the tech that would be my boss, she didn't mind showing me how to use some of their software or we'd have something and see what the other thought about this idea or problem. Or I had some project and I'd mention some hiccup and how I'mtrying to fix she'd say did you check ... or sounds like you're heading in the right direction.
I assumed just because were friends, but the next internship I had another person like that.
I found interesting because a few of the guy techs I've seen are like okay fix this issue yet won't tell you how to use their odd app so you can make sure things work. Or there arrogant and you say you think the issue is X there like no the user messed something up. Or you have...

Interesting Observation - iMac vs. PC - 2.0 Update

Yesterday I attempted to update my old iPhone to 2.0... just like many other it turned out to be somewhat of a disaster. I was trying the update on my office laptop which is what I use to keep my calendar updated. I started the update yesterday afternoon around 5pm... tried the restore process around 9pm last night and picked it back up again around 7am this morning.
I also have an iMac... thought I would try the same process on it... within about seven minutes I was totally updated to 2.0 and had all my setting restored from my backup yesterday. In hindsight I should have started with my iMac... but iTunes should work the same way on either system.
This one will have me scratching my head for a while... but so far... 2.0 seems to work fine without any reduced performance.

lootz...
First, welcome to the forum!!
What I did after attempting several times with my XP office laptop... and I really don't know if this made any difference... but before I tried with my Mac I did a reset on my iPhone twice by holding both buttons at the same time until it reset. Then I started the update process on the Mac.
To be honest... and after reading so many different post last night and this morning... it is really hard to determine why some updates work and other do not.
Good luck... I know this is frustrating!!!

Interesting observations and random thoughts

While watching "Studio 60" tonight, I couldn't help but notice that Matthew Perry's character was using - with the logo prominently displayed - a black MacBook. Gotta give Apple credit for shrewd product placement (wonder how much that cost them).
How sad is it that, for the rest of the episode, I was watching to see if the MacBook would experience a sudden random shutdown in the middle of a scene? What an incredible irony that would have been ... (as I sit waiting for my MacBook to come back from its second repair for RSD).

I guess Matthew Perry like most MacBook owners has one that works fine.

Very interesting observation regarding speed

I have a Toshiba PCX2000 cable modem. Using the Express with this cable modem, I was downloading the OS 10.4.4 combo update at around 250-300kbs. I thought it would be faster than that. I then realized that the cable modem ethernet interface is 10base T. I was using a 100base T cable to connect them. So I switched the ethernet cable to 10 base native to the cable modem. Downloaded the file again and this time I was hitting well over 650 to 700kbs... much better.
I think its time to get a new modem with a faster ethernet interface to take full advantage of the Airport Express Wireless G speeds.

Did I understand correctly - that a "10BaseT" cable provided you with a faster connection than a "100BaseT" cable? The most likely reason for this happening - the "100BaseT" cable is bad. It could be either miswired or have a poor internal connection - all issues which can still allow it to work, pass a DC conductivity test, but provide poor performance.

Interesting Observation about SLOW Numbers File

This is my first posting on here, so bear with me... I have been using Numbers, and generally love it.
I created a new template using my MacBook for a class that I am taking. There are NO formulas used in this template. It uses checkboxes for approximately 26 rows and 5 columns, and then a column for bulleted comments. Very simple.
After using it on several forms, I was really disappointed by how slowly it responded. As I typed, letters appeared momentarily AFTER the keystroke, which ended up causing a lot of typing errors. At first, I thought that my computer had an issue, or that there was something just that slow about Numbers. I had not experienced this slowness issue with Numbers08. I also became aware that I wasn't having this issue when I used my iMac (vs. the MacBook), BUT ALSO that I didn't use this template on the iMac.
The breakthrough came when I opened up the exact same (slow) file from my MacBook using my iMac. The file equally slow, even though it was much smaller and much less complex than other templates that I created and used on my iMac.
I then recreated a NEW template from scratch, set up exactly the same way as the slow one. It works fine. Not slow on either computer. I even copied and pasted most of the cell contents from the old (slow) to the new (normal) template.
I have since found that one other template that I created acted in the same exact way, and was also fixed by creating a replica template from scratch.
Any reasons why this might have happened? How can I avoid this in the future?

Just speculating, but ... these are complex files, things can go wrong, not exactly “corrupt” but slightly busted. When you rebuild, you luck out and avoid the bug that bit you on the first try? Perhaps.

More concerning is that the last few patches for Build 10240 never showed up in my home WSUS server but earlier patches did. I wonder if they were even released for WSUS.
