Is there a .pst migration tool available?

I am migrating pop maliboxes (.pst) files onto our JMS server using IMAP and it is sluggish. The server is an x4140 (2 dual core processors) with 4GB RAM and SAS (SCSI) HDD's and yet over our 100Mb/s LAN it takes 2.5 hours to move 1GB (~5000 emails) up to the server. It only takes 17 minutes for Thunderbird to import them from the .pst file. Is there any tools that can migrate pst folders into a users mailbox from the server itself?

Bottleneck seems to be IMAP itself, or the performance of server, I have not checked the server's load whilst uploading. I would not know how to, in linux or Solaris Express I have 'top' command which would give me a rough idea. You can use the "prstat" command to check CPU utilisation.
In general I'm getting good performance from the comms suite, comms express is incredibly fast and normal usage of thick clients seems fine.The IMAP append operation which is used to copy emails using via the IMAP protocol is very write-I/O intensive as you need to write the actual message data and also perform multiple store database operations (new message, message IMAP flags). This means the speed and throughput of your I/O subsystem is essential.
You should always make sure that you have set the store.dbtmpdir configutil parameter to a temporary filesystem e.g.
# ./configutil -o store.dbtmpdir
/tmp/msg-mailstore1This will help to reduce I/O load.
I do find that Outlook is more sluggish than it was with POP accounts though, tbird is much better IMAP client IMHO.No argument here.
It seem sto me it's the hand-shaking that is taking the time, not the data transfer.The IMAP client shouldn't be reconnecting for each new email that is being copied so there is no additional "hand-shaking" after the first message.
In that respect I would guess that 1GB of data in 200 emails would upload much faster than 1GB of data in 5000 emails, but that's just a guess.I would expect the same as you would also have much fewer IMAP flag operations.
I notice that in the outlook connector configurator it does support conversion/uopload of "Microsoft POP accounts" as well as Exchange.It supports "MS POP profiles" i.e. MS Outlook configured to use a POP account.
When I install the connector of these accounts it sometimes manages to transfer the contacts and tasks to the server, but not the email folders. Is it possible I just need to tweak the configurator a little more?There is an option to enable the conversion/upgrade of "MS POP" and "MS IMAP" profiles in the User Profiles tab in the latest version of the Outlook Connector (7.3 update 1). Have you selected both of these options?

Shane.

Is there a MASS COMPARISON tool available anywhere?

Hello friends,
Is there a mass comparison tool available? I have over hundred programs in QA environment which must be compared to their counterpart in the DEV environment. Currently the only way I know is to go through the list and compare one at a time which is very tedious, time consuming and error prone. So, an alternative to this is most welcome.
Thanks for your help.

Hello Goharjou
I would create a simple eCATT testscript for transaction SE39 (Split-screen Editor) where you compare the source on DEV vs. QA system. When you push the "Comparison On" button in the split-screen editor you will get the message "The Programs are not identical" (EDCMP, 417) if the two sources are not identical.
This way you can restrict the number of program objects which actually differ on DEV vs. QA.

Is there a ruleset comparison tool available in the market?

Dear all,
I wanted to know if there is a SAP GRC ruleset comparison tool available in the market? As a part of our audit requirement, I would need to compare our current rulesets with the ones from last quarter - To identify any changes/enhancements.
I know Bizrights Approva supports a comparison tool called ExamXML where we can perform a comparison of 2 XML files and figure out the differences/ changes.
Please let me know if any of you has used such a tool for GRC ruleset comparison.
Thanks,
Kunal

If any auditor is comparing sap delivered rule sets with a companies' grc rule sets (without deep investigations) and reporting the differences in his/her audit report (as white spaces) then the auditor is doing it the wrong way.
The auditor should be aware of the following facts:
1. SAP delivered rule sets are mere best practices (only starting point)
2. Most of the customers modify/update the rule sets as per their requirements
3. Organizational rules are created by customers differently
4. Some customers don't even choose sap delivered rule sets and completely create their own.
So the difference between rule sets is obvious, but these findings may or may not be entirely appropriate to reach to a conclusion for audit purposes.

Note 1915309 - Query Migration Tool Availability?

Hi,
I noticed on SCN a new reference to Note 1915309 - Query Migration Tool but it still shows not available.
Any ideas why it would show as not available when they actually mention it on SCN?
See the following Link.

Is there a Migration tool for migrating Oracle forms 5 to Java

Hi,
I would like to know if there are any oracle tools available for migrating Oracle forms to j2ee.I read that " Oracle JHeadstart 10g" migrates the forms 6i to java/html.Does Oracle JHeadstart 10g also migrate forms 5 to j2ee.I am new to both oracle forms and j2ee and any information about this would be a great help.
Thanks,

Kevin,
there are a couple of migration partners that offer their migration tool and many are listed on the otn page for Forms (otn.oracle.com/products/forms). You may want to make yourself a picture of how efficient such a migration coul dbecome

Role migration tool for EP6

I beleive that there is a tool for migrating roles from Workplace 2.11 to EP5, does anybody know if there is the same tool available in EP6?
I cannot find any documentation on this.

Hi,
yes there is indeed a tool in EP 6.0 for role migration from WP 2.11 or other SAP systems to EP6. You can find it in the portal under System Administration -> Transport -> Role Upload.
The documentation can be found under:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/41/5e4d40ecf00272e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
The tool is also available for SP2 Patch4+, the documentation is the same.
Please contact me, if you need further assistance.

Forms and reports migration tools from oracle and other vendors

Can someone through some light about the migration tools available on the market for the migration of oracle forms 10g to 11g?

are there any tools for doing this activity like oracle recommended tools?
Your question is unclear. As IK mentioned, the only tool you need is a new version of Oracle Forms/Reports. Open your v10 modules in a v11 Builder and select Save. You now have a v11 module. Doing a "Compile All PL/SQL" before saving is a good idea, but not required. The Builders and utilites provided with the version 11 installation are the only supported tools for upgrading your application. If you are trying to do the conversion of many Forms files in a scripted manner, you can use the Forms compiler in a script. Generating new "X" files will also update the source modules (fmb, mmb, pll). See MyOracleSupport Note 955143.1
Also included in the installation in the Forms Migration Assistant. Although it is more useful to people coming from older versions, it can also be used to move from v10 to 11. It allows you to select more than one file at a time. Documentation for this utility can be found in the Forms Upgrade Guide.

Is there a good GUI tool on linux for backups? What do YOU use?

Hi all,
I feel Linux lacks a good and simple graphical tool to do desktop backups for regular users. I'm thinking of writing one myself (probably a front-end to a good command line tool), but before I get started, I want to make sure I'm not reinventing the wheel.
So:
- Is there a good graphical tool available already? It should be: simple (minimalist interface, sane defaults), fast and incremental.
- What do YOU currently use for your desktop backups?
EDIT: rsync alone is not great, because a good backup solution keeps multiple snapshots. Imagine you deleted a file by accident 15 days ago, and realize only today: rsync won't save you.
EDIT2 : I have tried backintime, I think it's a step in the right direction, but it's not that great. Maybe I should improve on it instead of starting something new, though.
EDIT3 : Has anyone tried PyBackPack (http://andrewprice.me.uk/projects/pybackpack/) ? I'm trying it at the moment and it seems to be getting it right. I'd like to hear some success stories before getting my hopes to high

It doesn't snapshot -- I occasionally back-up my back-ups and don't need that -- but it does its job well.

No migration tools in new 2disk MacMini

I bought a new MacMini 4.1 with two disk drives and no optical drive to replace an older MacMini. I'm dismayed to discover that there are no migration tools to help me move my software / data / users from the old machine (Snow Leopard 10.6.4) to the new machine (Snow Leopard Server). I had hoped to use the Time Machine backup of the old machine to get stuff onto the new machine.
Do I have to reinstall everything from scratch? How do I move all the iTunes music and the iPhone/iPad apps to the new machine without Migration Assistant?

You can definitely set up the new mini server model to use as a desktop computer a la a regular mini and keep the server functions too. You are right that there is no Migration Assistant, so just do it manually. You can boot the old computer into target mode (hold the "T" key on startup) and connect the mini and the old computer via firewire.
From the server admin account you created at setup, drag-copy your apps from the old computer. A few things will need to be reinstalled (notably Adobe apps and tools that install startup items or kernel extensions), but most apps will copy over just fine. Don't replace anything already on the mini. (click "Don't Replace" and "Apply to all" in the copy dialog box.) Do the same with the contents of /Library/Application Support: copy the contents to your mini's /Library/Application Support folder. Don't replace anything.
Then make a new user account, which will be your using-the-mini-as-a-desktop user name. Log into that account and drag-copy the contents of your old user account over. I skipped /Users/<me>/Library/Caches and a few other things that didn't need to go.
Not as easy as Migration Assistant, but it works fine. I had to copy a few extra things to make every application work (e.g., iLife wanted a framework from the old machine) but it was a minor nuisance only. If you are fairly savvy on the Mac and familiar with looking at console logs and using the command line to sort out minor issues like resetting file ownerships, dive in. But if you are not, get a technical user to help.
I did one extra thing first: I set up the two internal drives in the mini server as a single RAID stripe set. It looks now like one 1TB drive with faster performance. Nice. You'll need to boot from the grey install disk to do this: Select Utilities > Disk Utility from the first screen you see after booting from the DVD. NOTE: A RAID stripe set performs better but is vulnerable to the failure of either disk. But you are keeping regular backups anyway, right...?

Adobe Migration Tool for Aperture Pics to Lightroom

Has the Adobe tool to help migrate Aperture Pictures to Lightroom Library been release? If not, can we set up to have an alert when it is released?

I’ve not seen any announcement on the release of the migration tool but this pdf document may be useful if you want to start exporting some or all of your originals. The migration tool announcement is expected to appear in the Lightroom journal and there is a link to it within the pdf which you could bookmark. I understand there is a migration tool in the app store although it’s at third party tool not an Adobe tool.

HT1338 does preview have an extract tool available through an update?

I saw an extraction tool available in the selection menu of preview with the Snow Leopard operating system, while I was watching a tutorial. Is there a similar extraction tool available to use within Mountain Lion?

I agree workflow is not SOA (Service Orientated Architecture). Oracle's strategic direction is BPEL / BPM, and Oracle workflow is moving to end of life.
BPEL is part of SOA Suite but you do have the option to buy standalone, it does have a prerequisite of weblogic suite though.
Although Oracle markets the product SOA Suite it does not mean you you have to develop a SOA architecture, you can still develop point to point interfaces as you do in workflow. SOA Suite just enables you get more reuse out of your existing systems, and future developments. If you want you can keep you workflow develop as it and integrate BPEL / SOA Suite with it.
Im sure you are very skilled in workflow but these skills are becomming very hard to find. They require strong PL/SQL skills and typically don't work with any other application or database without doing some customization. The fact that there is limited documentation shows that it is going to be difficult to upskill developers.
For the functionality Oracle provides in its BPM and SOA Suite I would say it is cheap, especially against our competitors. Also the more you buy the cheaper it gets.

PST Migration using PST Capture tool 2.0

Hello,
I am planning to use Microsoft PST Capture 2.0 tool to import PST's located on C: Drive of users to personal archive mailbox of the respective user in the on-premises exchange 2010 mailbox.
There are total of 16000 users. I am wondering will PST Capture Tool, be able to handle this huge requirement? Based on past experience, can anyone suggest me healthy practice of planning PST migration using PST capture 2.0?
Any help on this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Kapil

Make sure you spec the PST Migration server properly, also, the number of PST files is not the problem, It's the size of all the PST files.
From my experience keep an eye on the disk space because If you are using a DAG once you start the migration the DB log files will be massive and you will need to run full backup to clear them so make sure you run backups every 12 hours to clear the logs.
If you batch them each night to a reasonable number your environment can handle everything should be fine.
Cheers

Is there a tool available that can be executed by another process to scale the actual size of a PDF?

Is there a tool available that can be executed by another process to scale the actual size of the printed PDF file by X%? We are attaching PDF files to printed output using the Oracle DocuMaker product, and are running into margin issues with the attached PDF. We need to keep a 3/4 inch margin on our pages for sorting/finishing equipment, and the attached PDFs do not all conform to our margin requirements.

What email program are you using? And what do you mean by "Safari mail"?

Is there any Scripting tool available?

Hi,
I am brand new to Web AS and wondering is there any command line scripting tool available within Web AS? For example, something similar to BEA's WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) that is based on Jython or IBMs WebSphere Administrative (wsadmin) that is based on Jacl and Jython.
Any input/comments/pointers are much appreciated.

Yes, I believe you can use any text editor, including a javascript editors to write serverside AS, but may not get intellisense in most of those editors while coding.
