Is it ok to set "auto shrink" ON for reportserver and reportserverTempDB database?

Is it ok to set "auto shrink" ON for the reportserver and reportserverTempDB databases?
I have read multiple 'best practice' advice articles to not se 'auto shrink' to true, and I understand the potential issue with index fragmentation, but I percieve this advice is for user created application databases and not for the ReportServer and
reportserverTempDB databases.

Hello Tom,
Could you put it on - sure. Should you put it on - (My personal opinion is) never.
There is more to it than just fragmenting indexes.
About every half an hour or so the internal information kept about the database will be used to figure out if it should and can shrink and to about what size. This might be great for overnight when no one is using it, but the first time new extents are needed
(since it just shrunk very small from no/light usage of reporting services) all requests will be halted until the data and log files grow. Basically you'll create a cycle of start->grow->stop->shrink->grow->shrink->grow->ad nausea. If
you don't want to waste the resources of constantly growing and shrinking (plus all of the stopping when it happens) then don't enable it. If you don't care or it's not a big deal, go ahead and enable it but I'm not quite sure why a few MB would make a big
difference?
The reporting server databases are still "user" databases, they are not special system databases.
Hope this helps.

  • How to set auto delete option for old messages

    Hi All,
    Can any one help me on how to set auto delete option for mails older than 15 days from my Z10.
    James Kurian

    There is no such option in BB 10.
    However, you can achieve a similar result by setting your email sync timeframe to 14 days (the closest option).
    If you are using an ActiveSync account (such as Hotmail, Outlook.com), go to Settings > Accounts > select the account. Tap advanced at the bottom of the screen. Scroll to the very bottom, tap Sync Timeframe and set to 14 days.
    If you are using an IMAP account (such as Gmail or GMX), you will have to delete, then re-add your account.  The Sync Time frame is only avaialble during setup for these accounts.  When adding, tap advanced at the bottom of the screen and set the Sync Timeframe.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to set up Airport Extreme for 11ac and 11n?

    I have just purchased the new Airport Extreme (August 2014) because Apple's website states
    Simultaneous dual-band support.
    AirPort Extreme features simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac Wi‑Fi. That means it transmits at both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies at the same time. So no matter which band your wireless devices use, they’ll automatically connect to the best available band for the fastest possible performance.
    I have number of Macs in my home from a new MacBook Pro with Mavericks to a Macbook Air with Snow Leopard (due to required software) and iPads.
    So after setting up the new Extreme my new MacBook only accesses 11n as does my older Macs. I checked by holding down the option key while clicking the WiFi icon at the top of my Mac. Well, not so automatic then as I was expecting 11ac and 3 times faster access (as stated by Apple).
    I then looked for some documentation for setting up but cannot find anything.
    Hence my question here.
    How to set up Airport Extreme for 11ac and 11n simultaneously?
    At present the new Extreme is no better than my previous 2 year old one.
    Thank you.
    Michael

    How to set up Airport Extreme for 11ac and 11n simultaneously?
    Assuming that it is operating correctly, 802.11ac and 802.11b/g/n are broadcast simultaneously by default.
    Simultaneous dual-band support.
    AirPort Extreme features simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac Wi‑Fi. That means it transmits at both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies at the same time. So no matter which band your wireless devices use, they’ll automatically connect to the best available band for the fastest possible performance.
    That is advertising. The real information is usually found in the small and hard to read footnotes:
    Based on theoretical peak speeds. Actual speeds will be lower.
    AirPort Extreme is based on an IEEE 802.11ac draft specification. Performance based on comparison with Apple’s 802.11n products. Comparison assumes AirPort Extreme network with 802.11ac-enabled computer. Speed and range will be less if an 802.11a/b/g product joins the network. Accessing the wireless network requires a Wi‑Fi-enabled device. Actual speed will vary based on range, connection rate, site conditions, size of network, and other factors. Range will vary with site conditions.
    Since the 802.11ac signal is being broadcast only using the 5 GHz band, some users report that they have had better results by using the option to assign a different name to the 5 GHz band, and then pointing their Mac to that specific signal or network. You may want to try that option.
    But first as a test, please locate the MacBook Pro about 10-15 feet or 3-4 meters from the AirPort Extreme with clear line-of-sight between the two devices. Restart both the AirPort Extreme and the Macbook Pro and then check to see if the Mac is connected to an 802.11ac signal.
    If not, please power off your other wireless devices...computers, mobile devices, etc. temporarily, and try the same test again.
    Please report on your results.

    Hello Nikkii,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Troubleshooting FaceTime and iMessage activation
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4268
    Troubleshooting telephone-number activation (iPhone only)
    After each step, toggle FaceTime and iMessage off and then on in Settings > Messages and Settings > FaceTime.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    Ensure that your iPhone is set to the correct time zone. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: If Set Automatically is on but the incorrect time zone is displayed, turn Set Automatically off and then choose the correct time zone, date, and time. Then turn Set Automatically on again.
    Ensure that FaceTime has not been restricted: Settings > General > Restrictions > FaceTime.
    Verify that you can send SMS messages. You need a valid SMS messaging plan to activate FaceTime.
    Contact your carrier to verify that there are no restrictions or blocks on text messages. Blocks on text messaging will prevent iMessage and FaceTime registration.
    If you are unable to activate iMessage or FaceTime on a device after remote wiping it, wait at least 24 hours and try again.
    If "Waiting for Activation" is displayed, leave FaceTime and iMessage enabled for 24 hours. Toggling FaceTime or iMessage off and on will cause the registration process to start over.
    Best of luck,

  • How set auto growth file for 500 GB Database

    Hi
    We have 500 GB database every day its grow by 18 GB.
    can you please advice me how Can I set auto growth file in MB or percentages?
    Thanks in advance.

    How to set it - Check this link -
    https://www.simple-talk.com/sql/database-administration/sql-server-database-growth-and-autogrowth-settings/
    First - Never rely on Autogrowth for growing the file sizes. This has to be a manual process where you increase the size depending on the growth before hand. Autogrowth should only be relied on for last case/unfortunate scenarios
    Second - Dont set Autogrowth in Percentages . Always set it in MB's.
    You cant start with say 500 MB and monitor. You need to set this in such a way that increasing this amount does not take up too much time and cause slowness.
    Check if you have Instant File Initialization enabled - This will reduce the time taken for initializing DATA files considerably. Check this link -

  • UITableView: set different background colors for header and the table

    I would like to set my background color for my UITableView to white and set my tableViewHeader backgroundColor to grayColor similar to the facebook app. When I bounce scroll my table so that you can see above the header, then currently it is white above the header view. I want that to be brown instead.
    In the facebook app, above the headerview, it is a blue color and below the table is a white color. If i try and set the UITableView backgroundColor to brown, then the top will be brown, but so will the bottom. Additionally, all of the unset cells will have a brown background instead of white.

  • Setting up the name for folder and fi

    I just had to reinstall MediaSource on my system and it reset my settings for the file listings, i.e. Album - Artist - Track Title - Track Number.mp3.
    It came up when I ripped my first CD but the settings didn't show up right.
    I looked for the button to bring up that window again, but I couldn't find it anywhere.
    If someone knows where to bring up that window please let me know.
    Thanks

    Are you having MediaSource 5 now? Because if you had uninstalled and re-installed MediaSource 3, the settings should have remained.
    Anyway, as PeeBee mentioned, you can set the naming convention in the setting page.
    Also, for ripping format, go to Tools->Settings->Audio CD/Rip.

  • Setting up distinct Wikis for staff and contractors

    Hi There
    I'm trying to set up 2 wikis, one for staff and one for contractors. We'd like to limit the content that contractors can see. But at the bottom of the wiki is a link to all the other wikis. How can we change that?
    Cheers

    I don't know of any way you can prevent Wiki's from showing up in the list that displays when you click the link to all other Wiki's, but you can restrict who views each Wiki by editing the group record in Directory.app -> Services tab, and setting the view privileges to Group members only.

  • How set auto freeze area for liquify filter

    I saw a "killer tip" for photoshop in which a circular marque selection was made of a layer and then the liquify filter command selected and the entire layer could be seen in the liquify dialog box, but everything but the selection was "frozen", that is, masked in red so that liquify tools don't effect this area.
    I can't make this work on CS5 on imac. The liquify tool otherwise works perfectly for me
    Help?
    Thanks,
    vince

    You could use a retangular selection if you inverse the selection
    before going to the liquify filter and use the freeze or thaw tools to modify.
    You can also use a layer mask or channel to define the protected areas and then
    use the mask options in the liquify filter to set to the channel or mask.
    You can define protected areas without using a selection, mask or channel with
    the freeze and thaw tools in the liquify filter.

    thanks!

    Make sure you have completed the recommended preparation steps given in Before You Begin Installing the Patch.
    If you are not using the Prime Infrastructure High Availability (HA) feature, follow the steps in Installing the Patch instead of the steps below.
    If your current Prime Infrastructure implementation has High Availability enabled, follow the steps below to install the patch. You must start the patch installation with the primary server in “Primary Active” state and the secondary server in “Secondary Syncing” state.
    Patching of the primary and secondary servers takes approximately one hour. During that period, both servers will be down. If you have trouble at any point, see Troubleshooting Patch Installs in HA Implementations.
    Step 1 Ensure that your HA implementation is enabled and ready for update:
    a. Log in to the primary server using an ID with Administrator privileges.
    b. Select Administration > System Settings > High Availability , The primary server state displayed on the HA Status page should be “Primary Active”.
    c. Select HA Configuration . The current Configuration Mode should show “HA Enabled”.
    d. The Failover Type must be set to “Manual” throughout the patch installation. If Failover Type is currently set to “Automatic”, select “Manual” and then click Save .
    e. Access the secondary server’s Health Monitor (HM) web page by pointing your browser to the following URL:
    https:// <ServerIP> :8082
    where ServerIP is the IP address or host name of the secondary server.
    f. You will be prompted for the authentication key entered when HA was enabled. Enter it and click Login .
    g. Verify that the secondary server state displayed on the HM web page is “Secondary Syncing”.
    Step 2 Download the patch:
    a. Point your browser to the software patches listing for Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1.
    b. Click the Download button for the Release 2.1.2 patch file (pi212_20141118_01.ubf), and save the file locally.
    Step 3 Install the patch on the secondary server:
    a. Access the secondary server’s HM web page by pointing your browser to the following URL:
    https:// <ServerIP> :8082
    where ServerIP is the IP address or host name of the secondary server.
    b. You will be prompted for the authentication key entered when HA was enabled. Enter it and click Login .
    c. Choose the HM web page’s Software Update link. You will be prompted for the authentication key a second time. Enter it and click Login again.
    d. Click Upload Update File and browse to the location where you saved the patch file.
    e. Click OK to upload the patch file.
    f. When the upload is complete: On the Software Upload page, verify that the Name, Published Date and Description of the patch file are correct.
    g. Select the patch file and click Install . When the installation is complete, you will see a popup message confirming this.
    h. After the installation is complete on the secondary server, verify that the Software Updates page shows:
    – In the “Installed” column: A “Yes” opposite the listing for this patch.
    – In the “Pending Restart” column: A “Yes” for the secondary server. Do not restart the secondary server at this point.
    Step 4 Install the patch on the primary server:
    a. Log in to the primary server using an ID with administrator privileges and choose Administration > Software Update .
    b. Click Upload Update File and browse to the location where you saved the patch file.
    c. Click OK to upload the patch file.
    d. When the upload is complete: On the Software Upload page, verify that the Name, Published Date and Description of the patch file are correct.
    e. Select the patch file and click Install . When the installation is complete, you will see a popup message confirming this.
    f. After the installation is complete on the primary server, verify that the Software Update page shows:
    – In the “Installed” column: A “Yes” opposite the listing for this patch.
    – In the “Pending Restart” column: A “Yes” for the primary server. Do not restart the primary server at this point.
    Step 5 Stop the servers in the following sequence, using the commands explained in Running Commands:
    a. On the secondary server, run the ncs stop command.
    b. On the primary server, run the ncs stop command.
    Step 6 Re-start and monitor the servers in the following sequence, using the commands explained in Running Commands:
    a. On the secondary server, run:
    – The ncs start command to restart the secondary server. Wait for the processes on the secondary to restart.
    – The ncs status command to verify that the processes on the secondary have re-started.
    – The ncs ha status command to verify that the secondary state is “Secondary Lost Primary”.
    b. Once the secondary server is in “Secondary Lost Primary” state: On the primary server, run:
    – The ncs start command to restart the primary server. Wait for the processes on the primary to restart.
    – The ncs status command to verify that the primary’s Health Monitor and other processes have re-started.
    Once all the processes on the primary are up and running, automatic HA registration will be triggered. This normally completes after a few minutes.
    Step 7 Once registration completes, verify the patch installation as follows:
    a. Run the ncs ha status command on both the primary and secondary servers. You should see the primary server state change from “HA Initializing” to “Primary Active”. You should see the secondary server state change from “Secondary Lost Primary” to “Secondary Syncing”.
    b. Log in to the primary server and access its Software Update page as you did earlier. The “Installed” column should show “Yes” and the “Pending Restart” column should show “No” for the installed patch.
    c. Access the secondary server’s Health Monitor page as you did earlier. The “Installed” column should show “Yes” and the “Pending Restart” column should show “No” for the installed patch.

  • Is there a way to set off contra amounts for vendors and customers?

    Hi i would like to know whether there is a way in B1 to set off the contra amounts for a business partner who is both a customer and a vendor in B1? If so how?

    Hi Savindi,
    version 2007 fully supports multiple BP internal reconciliation, you are hence able to offset transactions of 2 separate BP codes against one another.
    Both 2007 A & B are in general availability, please see the appropriate landing page on the SMP.

  • Tax codes - can you set up default value for rows and freight? HELP!

    Hello - I have two issues with tax codes:
    1. When adding  a sales order if any of the rows do not have a value for "Tax Code"  I will get an error "Row without tax was found".
    - How can I get all rows on my sales orders, documents, etc to default to a specific tax code? Or will users ALWAYS have to enter the tax code?
    2. When addring a sales order with Freight, if the order is added without adding a tax code to the freight I will get an error "Expense with tax was found"
    - How can I get the tax code have a default value? We always use the same tax code, so it is redundant to have to enter this information.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi Jhon,
    this is the simplest and best way to make a Tax Code default is Go to
    Answer for Question 1
    Administration -> Setup -> Financial ->  Tax -> Tax Code Determination (Click on this)
    in that screen you can set a default tax code for both sales as well as Purchase.
    If you want to set Tax Code based on Vendors or Customers or Items separately then you can use the Key Fields.
    Answer for Question 2
    Once you enter the Tax Code in the freight i think it takes the Tax Code itself, I'm not so sure about this one though.
    Hope this helps you out
    regards,
    Shreyas
