Is there any Benefit in Performance of RAC to Pure VCP Environment.

We are using VCP suite for Planning Purpose. We are using VCP environment (12.1.3) in Decentralized structure connecting to 3 differect source environment ( consisting 11i and R12). As per the Oracle Note {RAC Configuration Setup For Running MRP Planning, APS Planning, and Data Collection Processes [ID 279156]} we have implemented RAC in our test environment to get better performance.
But after doing all the setups and concurrent programs assignment to different nodes, we are seeing huge performance issue. The Complete Collection which takes generally on an avg 180 mins in Production, is taking more than 6 hours to complete in RAC.
So I would like to get suggestion from this forum, if anyone has implemented RAC in pure VCP (decentralized) environment ? Will there be any improvement if we make our VCP Instance in RAC ?
any suggestion or feedback is appreciated.
Regards,
Arup

Is there any benefit for me to use smart previews if my Lightroom 5 catalog, previews and media are all on the same external USB HD?

I keep everything on 1 External USB3 HD so that I can pug it into my Mac at home or my PC at work and just keep working without syncing anything to the local machine. So is there any benefit with Smart Previews in this case? I heard somewhere that it might make the Develop module a little quicker, but is this only when using the Smart Preview and not the full res image?

Lr uses smart previews instead of ACR cache for initial develop-module view when photos are online - amount of benefit is, in my experience, very minor (not noticeable without using a stop-watch..).
But if photos are offline, you may experience more substantial savings.
Note: smart previews are reduced resolution - smart previews of raw files are 2560 x (say) 1920, so if your original raws were say 5120 x 3840, then you/Lr are dealing with 1/4 the number of pixels when editing via smart previews.
Anyway, if you are willing to give up zoom for one edit pass, you can resize the smart previews so 1:1 fits in your allotted display space (e.g. 1280 x 960, which would be 1/8 number of pixels..), e.g. using the PreviewExporter plugin - then things may be significantly faster in develop module. PreviewExporter also has a feature to take originals offline, and put them back online.
To be clear: the amount of savings may or may not be dramatic - how much there is depends on your system, size of raw vs. smart preview image, number and type of edits applied, etc..
Why don't you try it and tell us what you think?!
Cheers,
Rob

Is there any advantage in performing a clean install?

I'm curious... My 80GB internal hard drive is nearly full so I will be upgrading to a 250GB.
Is there any advantage in performing a clean install of Tiger on the new HDD and then copying across files etc from the old one using migration tool? (the idea being it will cleanse any old files, code from the numerous OS upgrades as it originally had panther on)
Or will the system be just as fast by using the disk utility to copy the contents (OSX and all) of the 80 GB across to the new 250GB and then set that as the boot drive?

If you are asking if there is an advantage to doing an erase and install, then yes, you'll be able to ascertain any of the issues you've been having with Apple software are hardware related issues if before the migration assistant you have trouble with any Apple applications. Cloning one drive to another, you'll find yourself with whatever corrupted fonts, cache, preferences files you had before. I would though make a backup of your data to a second drive before attempting the move, simply because it is wise to have at least two copies of your data at all times.

Is there any benefit to keep the RAW file after editing outside Lightroom creates a TIFF

When working with RAW files in Lightroom and you choose to edit in Photoshop, the only option is "Edit a copy with Lightroom Adjustments" (Edit Original is grayed out). This creates a .TIFF so after you come back from Photoshop you now have two copies of the photo--the RAW file and a TIFF version.
In my normal workflow, I make additional edits to the TIFF file in addition to the changes Photoshop made so I'm left with a "out dated" version of the RAW file. Is there any benefit to keeping the RAW file at that point? I'm doubling my disk usage by keeping it.
Fire away.....

Answering this question:
This got me wonderig why LR turns my 25-30mb CR2 RAW files into 80-95 mb TIFF files when it sends them to Photoshop for editing but Photoshop can open the same 25-30 RAW file in DNG format and save it as a 25-30 mb TIFF. Why are the TIFF's LR creates 3x larger than the ones created by PS?
Camera RAW file formats are compressed to a small file size using manufacturer proprietary information about the image sensor pixel layout. This provides a more efficient loss-less file compression algorithm than TIFF's LZW or ZIP compression algorithms. LZW or ZIP compression is not used when Lightroom exports and opens an image in Photoshop for editing, but you certainly have that option when saving the file after applying your PS edits. DNG files using loss-less compression can produce a file size slightly smaller than RAW format, but I have no experience with DNG.
Answering this question:
CS3 can't read Canon .CR2 RAW files (at least mine can't unless there is a plugin of some kind).
Support for newer camera models like your Canon 7D are only added to the then current (and later version) Adobe Camera RAW Converter and Lightroom. Newer Adobe Camera RAW converter versions (6.3) are not supported in older version of Photoshop like CS3. It is the nature of business marketing and also due to the large expense to support older application versions with "new" plug-in features. It would be a support nightmare!
Hypothetical Example:
"Why doesn't Adobe Camera RAW 10.3 work properly with my Canon 1600 D MK XV 45 Megapixel camera in Photoshop CS3?"

Is there any benefit updating OS 10.6.8 too Lion and Mountain Lion before Maverick?

is there any benefit updating OS 10.6.8 too Lion and Mountain Lion etc. before updating to Maverick?

No. Before you upgrade check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.
Application Compatibility
Do a backup before you upgrade.
Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks.
To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) model number 5,1 or higher
MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) model number 3,1 or higher
Your Mac needs:
OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
8 GB or more of available space
You might update your profile - shows 10.5

Is there any benefit to installing anti-virus software on the Windows side of the Boot Camp configuration?

Is there any benefit to installing anti-virus software on the Windows side of the Boot Camp configuration?

The advantage is the susceptibility of Windows systems to viruses and passing those along. While they may not affect, or infect, a Mac OS X systems, thy can be passed through to others.

Function overloading ... Is there any benefit ?

Where is the benefit if I write this ..
using function overloading :
add(Integer, Integer);
add(String, String);
instead of
addInt(Integer, Integer);
addStr(String, String);
Is there any benefit ?

why you are saying "add() *does not contain an argument type name*"?The statement that you are still claiming to find unclear was 'embed the argument type names in the function name'. The function name 'add()' doesn't do that. Your alternative function name 'addInt() does do that. 'Int'. A type name. Embedded in the function name.
Am I missing something ?Yes. I don't see how you can agree that add() is shorter than addInt() without also seeing that the difference consists precisely of the embedded type name. Frankly, I don't think you have been reading very carefully.

Is there any benefit to 64-bit version when I only have 4GB of RAM?

My laptop only has 4GB of RAM so I am wondering if there is any benefit to installing 64-bit version? Besides I have an AMD Athlon II P340 Dual-Core 64-bit processor which isn't very powerful so I am not even in the best spot to take advantage of 64-bit. For those wondering, I am using Windows 7 64-bit.
Although I am posting this in Photoshop, I am in fact installing most of the Adobe CS6 Master Collection so there is a chunk of space to be saved. Also I don't tend to use plugins, only OnOne which are 64-bit. So should I avoid installing the 64-bit version altogether? or should I install 64-bit and get rid of 32-bit? What is your opinion?

That's entirely up to you - if you're SURE you'll not need any 32 bit plug-ins then you're probably going to be okay. The 64 bit version does everything.
I personally DO have some 32 bit only plug-ins and I occasionally do use the 32 bit Photoshop for that reason, so I have them both installed.
The only other consideration I can think of is that occsasionally a system might have a problem (with drivers or something) to where the 32 or 64 bit version will work better than the other. Probably your best bet, assuming you're trying to minimize disk usage, will be to install just the 64 bit version and see how well it meets your needs. You can always go back, uninstall, and install both (or the other).
A "thinking out of the box" alternative... Maybe you could consider getting a big new SSD drive to replace the drive you have, which will both kick performance up and give you a lot of extra space. Of course, this costs $$$.

Is there any benefit to the "System" if I regularly log out?

Hi all,
Is there any system changes that occur when I log out that could be considered a benefit for performance?
Or is there a downside to it?
So long for now, TOM

HI,
Responding to the comment, "If you're using it as a workstation/desktop system then that's a different issue that requires additional thought."
Yes. I am speaking of good "old fashioned" desktop computing. We used to have things happen in the bad old days, like memory leaks which got swept out after a reboot.
I understand Mac OS is a modern OS and got past those issues.
I was just wondering what actually goes on when you "log out." After a week of running all kinds of different apps, I was wondering if a "clean page" log in was a smart idea or not.
For example, weekly I run Cocktail which I understand does a bit of "housecleaning" that is desirable.
I love being able to have such a reliable OS. Thanks Apple!
Thanks, and so long for now, TOM

Is there any API for performing Assembly Completion with LPN

Hi,

Thanks and Regards,
Ramnish.

We had looked into doing something similar, and this post is the closest we found.
https://community.qualys.com/thread/11816
Basically you will need a middle-man between Qualys and ConfigMgr to house the data. This may be a new database, or a whole seperate platform. I expect this could easily be done with SQL and SSRS.
Also note, database edits to the ConfigMgr database are
not supported by Microsoft, I would recommend using a central system to pull data from Qualys and ConfigMgr without modifying either.

HT201342 Is there any benefit in changing my email address

Hello, I have been sent an email offering me an @icloud email address. Should I both? I there any point or benefit in having an iCloud address?

It's purely down to personal preference. There is no benefit to @icloud.com over @me.com. If you opt to start using your @icloud.com address it won't be a new independent email account, it is just an additional address the points to the same mailbox your existing @me.com address uses.

Is there any way to restore my pre-Lion Server localhost environment?

I bought Lion Server with the intention of running Wordpress demonstrations for clients, but it's been nothing but a headache. After 2 days of wrangling with the solution, I managed to install Wordpress, but other problems arose (created pages going in the wrong folders and such) -- such that it is functionally unusable. I tried looking for solutions on Wordpress's side, but the truth is that Lion Server just isn't compatible with Wordpress.
In addition to wasting $60, I'm stuck with a faulty localhost envionrment where I cannot properly work with and test Wordpress. Is there any way to go back to just using MAMP?
Thanks.

You only need to post once.

Norton 360 tells me it does not support installation of my 10.6.8 but I have to upgrade to 10.7. Is there any benefit doing this and if so how do i do it? my thanks for any advice...

I was encouraged to purchase antivirus protection NORTON 360 for my MacBook pro. However when I went to install it it says NORTON 360 doesn't support installation of 10.6.8 but i have to upgrade to 10.7.
Is this really necessary, can you tell me what are the benefits. Does it cost to upgrade?
I'm thinking I will take the Norton back and demand a refund for misleading me. It doesn't qualify this on the box either.
I'd appreciate any advice with thanks...

Installing Norton / Symantec products on a Mac will result in nothing but misery while conveying no benefit whatsoever. Return it to whomever it was that encouraged you to waste your time and money on it.
There will always be threats to your information security associated with using any Internet - connected communications tool:
You can mitigate those threats by following commonsense practices
Delegating that responsibility to software is an ineffective defense
Assuming that any product will protect you from those threats is a hazardous attitude that is likely to result in neglecting point #1 above.
OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it that way with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "clean up", "speed up", "optimize", "boost" or "accelerate" your Mac; to "wash" it, "tune" it, or to make it "shiny". Those claims are absurd.Such products are very aggressively marketed. They are all scams.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources.
Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
"Questionable sources" include but are not limited to spontaneously appearing web pages or popups, download hosting sites such as C net dot com, Softonic dot com, Soft pedia dot com, Download dot com, Mac Update dot com, or any other site whose revenue is primarily derived from junk product advertisements
If you need to install software that isn't available from the Mac App Store, obtain it only from legitimate sources authorized by the software's developer.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iCloud, iTunes, or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Java can be disabled in System Preferences.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Beware spontaneous popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > check "Block popup windows".
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but unsolicited popups are commonly used to deceive people into installing unwanted software they would never intentionally install.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever receive a popup window indicating that your Mac is infected with some ick or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it. The more insistent it is that you upgrade or install something, the more likely it is to be a scam. Close the window or tab and forget it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. Most of these attempts are pathetic and are easily recognized, but that hasn't stopped prominent public figures from recently succumbing to this age-old scam.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.
... i have to upgrade to 10.7.
Is this really necessary, can you tell me what are the benefits.
Assuming you are asking about upgrading OS X: no, it's not necessary, but if you want to upgrade you can skip OS X 10.7 and upgrade directly to Mavericks, or Yosemite when it is released. Both are free and preferable to Lion, which would cost money. If and when you decide to do that be sure to back up your system prior to upgrading OS X, as a precaution against the unexpected.
I have heard anecdotal reports that Apple has, or soon will, stop providing security updates to Snow Leopard. I have not confirmed them personally, but Apple generally ceases to support outdated OS X versions after a few years. Snow Leopard was superseded over three years ago. That's no reason to panic but it is something to keep in mind.
