Is it better to use ASM if my DB uses only one disk ?

Hello
I am planning to install a NEW database 11g R1 on a new windows server.
I am running a 9.2 DB and will export its data to the freshly installed 11gR1.
I ma wondering if i have to use the ASM feature ?
The dabatase files are small : 52 Gb, and it will keep on one disk.
I have understood that the main benefit of using ASM in automatic multi disk storage.
Does it worth to use it on my small DB ?
Thank you for your kind answers.
Christian

If you want to learn ASM then using it with a single disk system and just creating the diskgroups to not use Oracle redundancy is an option. Also one of the things ASM is designed to provide is async IO, that is, easy managment of raw partitions. Depending on your platform ASM may be desirable from this point of view.
Also does a one disk set-up today mean only a one disk set-up tomorrow? It is possible to migrate a database to a new disk server via ASM while the database is running. You create a mirror, allow it to populate, and then remove the original disk. The database data files are now on a new disk storage unit.
But ASM is by no means required or necessary. You just want to consider all the options it provides and the headaches it brings to determine which set of values: use or not, is right for your situation.

Is it better to use just one project or to jump back and forth?

Greetings,
I am using Captivate 4. And I am wondering if it is better to use just one project or to jump back and forth?
I have one main project and rather than make one big project, I wondered about jumping off to small projects and returning to the main one.
I was trying to figure out the suggestion of jumping back to slide 10 and jump off to another project and then back to slide 20.
Do the projects have to be published to see this work?
I am just learning about Captivate so I am unsure of the best practices.
Thanks.

It's not that easy in Captivate projects to jump to a particular slide midway through another project. Captivate is set up by default to just launch each project from the first slide.
There have been workarounds published on this forum that allowed jumping into the middle of another project, but they can require some complex coding in either JavaScript or ActionScript.

Parallelism in oracle using only one dual-core processor

Hi, is usefull or could i use parallel execution in oracle using only one dual core processor?
Can someone explain me why?

Hi
To take advantage of parallel processing you need enough resources (mainly CPU and I/O). If you run serially and the bottleneck is the CPU, then parallel processing might help. On the contrary, if the bottleneck is located in the I/O sub-system, throwing more CPU to it would not make things better. So, it's a question of balance between the CPU and I/O resources you have.

Logic 8 using only one CPU while bouncing

Whenever I bounce a project, Logic 8 uses only one CPU. It also spikes this CPU completely, with the CPU meter going into the red area, which is why I am rather keen on persuading Logic to distribute the load.
Any ideas?
(I've given the support document with tips on how to balance multi-core performance a good read, but it doesn't seem to say anything on this particular subject, and following the advice in the document does nothing to change my CPU load.)

Bouncing is a single core process. Just like rendering is in Final Cut Pro. This won't change until Leopard and Apple's ProApps get better at handling multiple cores.
It's redlining because the processor core is working as fast as it can. Computer processors don't just randomly run slower, they use their resources for the tasks at hand. If it only used 50% of a core, the bounce would take twice as long to process.

How to query on a single row form using only one page

Hi APEX experts, I am just a beginner in apex and I face several problems on development. Despite that the forum helps me a lot and your answers to other people are valuable , I have stacked into something. Could you please someone tell me : if there is a way to define a single row form page based on table in which I could query and update without using a tabular page (to call the single row form). I want only to use only one page. Does APEX has this functionality? Thank you very much?

I haven't tried it, but I am going to guess that yes it's possible (or if I were going to do this, this is what I'd try and I suspect it will work).
If you take a moment and step back and look at what the wizard does when building a "form on a table with report", all it does is build two pages with page 1 (report overview with drill-down Edit button or link usually) calling page 2 (form) and setting the PK field on the page 2 form with an automated row fetch process and built-in DML processes. It's not that hard.
Page 2 really doesn't care what the calling page was in order to query a single row; it just cares that ANY caller sets the primary key value for the ARF process to fetch a row. So I would just make page 2 call itself. This is what I'd do (and you might have to fine-tune little things that I might not have forseen but I think this will work).
For the sake of example, let's say our table is PARTS and in it is a PART_ID, PART_NUMBER, PART_DESCRIPTION, PART_COST, etc. Assume PART_ID is the primary key and sequentially assigned by the DB in a trigger and is functionally meaningless to the user and is for PK purposes only. Let's assume PART_NUMBER is a unique key (although not the PK) by which the user will "know" a unique row (since the PK of PART_ID is more internal and not meaningful to the user). Assume PART_DESCRIPTION, PART_COST, etc. are just attributes.
1. Use the wizard and build a "form on a table with report". This is just to get the handy dandy ARF process and DML processes, validations, etc. all generated for you. Let's assume the report page is Page 1 and the form is Page 2.
2. When done, delete the report page entirely (so delete page 1).
3. Edit the form page (page 2) and change any branch references from the nonexistent page 1 to now be page 2.
Now here's the part where something has to set the internal P2_PART_ID field when page 2 is run. So why not set it from itself from something the user will uniquely enter?
4. Create a P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH item (text item is fine or if you want a LOV or whatever that's good too....whatever works. For clarity, you might even want to create a separate "search" or "query" region separate and above your existing form region to set this field apart visually so users know it's a search field. Source for this field should be "only when current value in session state is null".
5. Created some sort of "GO" button to go along with the P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH field.
6. Make sure none of your existing post-submit processes fire when GO is pressed (edit all of the computations and validations and processes and ensure that they have conditions such that they do not fire when the submit value is "GO", so like a PL/SQL expression and set to v('REQUEST')<> 'GO').
7. Add a new validation to your page that only fires when GO is pressed. Have it validate only when GO is pressed. Have it validate that P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH is not null.
8. Add a new PL/SQL process to your post-submit processing that only fires when GO is pressed. Have it look up to the database based on P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH and get the PART_ID that corresponds to the part number the user entered and set the part number, something like this (even better for style and reusability if you embed this in a DB package function and call it):
SELECT part_id
INTO :P2_PART_ID
FROM PARTS
WHERE PART_NUMBER = :P2_PART_NUMBER_FETCH;
9. Not sure if the branches that were generated will suffice for this (might need to add a new one...review what you have and see) but the bottom line is that the page should branch to itself (page 2) and not clear the cache.
10. When the page repaints, since :P2_PART_ID is now populated in session state (again, page 2 should not care how it got populated...only should care that it did get populated by anything (including itself)), the automated row fetch (ARF) should fire and query up the row from the database for editing.

Welcome to the Apple community.
iTunes and iCloud and different accounts, you will need to delete both accounts from your device before adding the new details in their place.
For iCloud go to settings > iCloud, scroll down and hit the delete button. You can then sign back in using your correct details. For iTunes go to settings >store, tap your account ID and then sign out, you can then sign back in using your correct Apple ID.

Need to use only one sender and receiver communication channel.

Hello Experts.
I have a scenario where in I have to use only one sender and receiver communication channel to push files from different source directories to different receiver directories.
For Eg;
Sender
D://dir1/file1 --->                  E://dir1/File1
F://dir2/file2 ---->                 G://dir2/file2
H://dir3/file3----->                 I://dir3/file3.
Can this be achieved by using pass through scenario?
Please let me know if the requirement is not clear.
Thanks in advance.
Advit Ramesh

Hi Advit,
I think it is possible. You have to use the Advanced Selection for Source file in the sender channel to define multiple files to be picked up. Also, the Dynamic configuration must also be enabled and used in the mapping so you can manipulate the target directory and target file name based on your source files.

How do you use only one plugin in Logic for multiple guitar tracks? I want to only use one instance of Pod Farm and run all my guitar tracks through that one instance.

I want to be able to use only one instance of Pod Farm for my guitars, and have all of my guitar tracks run through it while I'm recording.

What he said. Or here is a similar approach with a picture.
1. Press the SEND button on every stereo (or mono) guitar track you want to send through the effect. Then select a free bus.
2. Make sure you turn up the amount of send (in db). Holding alt while leftclicking on this circle sets the send level to 0 db wich is good.
3. Open the mixer (Cmd+2). Please see that I here have turned the output off from the stereo guitar track. That way the only output will be the BUS, in your case the AmpTrack bus where all your guitars will pass through. If you want both the original guitar sound AND the Ampfarm effect then just set all outputs on your guitar tracks to Stereo Out, like the AmpF Bus track is set in my picture.
4. Insert your AmpFarm plugin here. I don´t have that plug so I inserted Waves Renes Axe for demo purpose.
Adjust the volume/effect of every guitartrack by turning the circle input shown as 2. in my picture.
I now see that you mentioned Pod Farm, not AmpFarm. But I guess it´s the same trick.
Have fun.

Multiple Qaawses but use only one Qaaws at a time

Hi,
In Dashboard , I have two Qaawses (Qaaws1 and Qaaws2). When I am trying to generate SWF file both the qaawses are running. My requirement is, in Excel file I will set a flag value in one cell (0/1).
If the cell value is '0' then the Dashboard should use only Qaaws1.
If the cell value is '1' then the Dashboard should use only Qaaws2.
In essence my requirement is, even though multiple Qaawses are present in Dashboard, the Dashboard should be able to use only one Qaaws at a time based on my requirement (i.e., based on flag bit value 0/1).
Can any one suggest, solution for this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
M. N. Kishore Babu.

Hi David,
Thank you very much for the response and sorry for the delay.
Our actual scenario is a s follows:
We pass customer id and shipper Group Id as an input parameters to the flash variables from front end (through Java program). And these two values will written in Excel cells (let say Customer id in A1, and Shipper Group Id in B1)
Now there are two Qaawses, Qaaws1 and Qaaws2 in the xlf in addition to flash variables.
Qaaws 1 query is as follows :
select * from shp_details where customer id = A1
Qaaws 2 query is as follows :
select * from shp_details where customer id = A1 and ShipperGroup_id = B1
On front end we have two drop downs, Dropdown1 is for customer id and Dropdown2 is for Shipper Group Id.
When we select an item in Dropdown1, from front end we pass only Customer Id and when we select an item in Dropdown2, we pass both Customer Id and Shipper Group Id.
Our requirement is,
When we select Dropdown1 (we are passing only customer id), we expect only Qaaws1 to be executed.
When we select Dropdown2 (we are passing both customer id and shipper Group Id), we expect only Qaaws2 to be executed.
Please let me know, if I need to provide any further clarification.
Thanks & Regards,

Is third-party SO/PO process possible using only one company code?

Hi friend,
1) my client wants to implement third-party PO process but also wants a way of keeping track of inventory during this process. I know that inventory should be tracked on the vendor side and not on our client side since we're doing third-party PO.
However my client wants to track inventory (in an inventory g/l account like 120100) so that when my client post a Goods Receipt, the inventory account
gets Debited and when client post the outgoing invoice to customer, the inventory account gets Credited. In this way, my client can track
if the customer have received the ordered item or not.
The problem is that third-party PO posts to consumption account but DOES NOT post to inventory account. Is there any way of
setting this up so that in addition to posting to comsumption account every time a Goods Receipt occurs?
2) i tried to create "Individual Purchase Order" (customer order from client -> client order from
vendor -> vendor ships item to client -> client then ships item to customer) so that posting will hit inventory account.
However, i find that taking this approach involves setting up a Plant for vendor (A), a Plant for our Client (B), and a Plant for Customer (C).
Because when i do a Goods Receipt, the stock has move from Plant A to Plant B. Then when i do a Goods Issue to the customer, it asks for the receiving plant. I assume this means that the stock moves from Plant B to Plant C.
Also, from the reading i did on the forum, i get the impression that i need to create more than one Company Code if i were to do
third-party PO. Do the Vendors have to be created in a different company code then the Customer? Or does it mean that Just the
plant (like Plant A) needs to be created in a different Company Code then Plant B and Plant C?
3) can i do third-party PO using only ONE company code?
Can anyone provide some clarification on this issue? I've read tons of posting but none really helped clear this issue up.
Thanks so much.

Dear Kishore,
Individual PO processing is not third party process at all. In third party process the vendor delivers the goods dirctly to the customer - please check what SAP help says.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/dd/5601d4545a11d1a7020000e829fd11/content.htm
Dear Queyen,
One important point of third party process is that there's no need to keep stock of materials - that is in harmony with reality. Why does your customer want to keep stock from the goods if they doesn't receive at all? Is it coreect? It doesn't correspond to the fact.
You can do statistical (ghost) GR against the third-party PO and you can see the goods movement in MB51 - I think this should be enough.

Color using only one CPU?

When rendering with Color it seams that it using only one CPU, according to "top".
Is it possible to make use of all CPUs?

Color's work is done on the GPU not the CPU, so unfortunately, the answer to your question is, no.

HeuristicHazard within a transaction using only one DataSource

We have an ejb 2.0 application running under WL 7.0 SP1. Its CMP beans are
          persisted in two Oracle 9i databases, some beans from different databases
          are related (have CMR). We are using XA Oracle JDriver for both pools.
          The javax.transaction.HeuristicMixedException exception occurred when the
          client application called getId() method on the local interface of one of
          the beans. The client is a webapp deployed together with the ejbs in the one
          EAR.
          The mentioned bean doesn't have any CMR with any bean from the other
          database, and its transaction attribute is 'Required'. Therefore method call
          which resulted in HeuristicMixedException was using only one DataSource. Why
          did exception happened?


No.
There is a very slight increase in performance if you have two chips of the same size, but it is something that will only really show up in benchmarks.
Get 1GB now and leave the other 256MB chip in there. When you have an extra $80 around doing nothing, grab another stick.

How do i confirm whether it is using only one partition.

I want to select the data from one partition only.
How do i confirm my select query using only one partition.
To front end developers how do i suugest to use correct partition.
I know in the select query we can write partion name also if i know the partition.
But i don't the correct partition name as a front end developer.

Hello,
You can find partitions for the table from following view user_tab_partitions. You can use PARTITION Clause but it defeats the purpose of having partition key column,
You should be able to do this
select * from my_part_table where part_key='key';Regards
