Issue in Capacity Planning

Hi Experts,
I am using process orders in our project. When I use the capacity planning to level the capacity through transaction CM21, I can despatch the operation without any issue and the associated phase also is getting despatched.
But if I want to deallocate the despatched operation, Iam not able to do that. System says the message, phase can not be deallocated. But once I despatch I find only one line assigned and not two lines as before despatch.
How to select the operation after despatch and how to deallocate?
Please help
Thanks & Regards

Capacity planning issue

Dear all
My customer has two actor types: project managers PM and 7 work center managers WCM, with strong antithesis: PM looks at project quality and productivity; WCM looks at his resources capacity planning.
Every PM defines wbs basic start / finish dates with appropriate, large and comfortable time lag. Into this time lag, during the capacity planning, the WCMs can set definitive activity start / finish dates, by their needs (and with user status communicates to PM the happened choice) .
The generic project is composed of more wbs elements and 7 networks: all activities of a generic network are assigned to only one work center. Every lowest wbs element has only one activity.
Every PM plans dates (large and comfortable) and efforts on network activities; schedules via bottom up and copies wbs scheduled dates on basic dates. After, CP sets the top down scenario and save the project. In IMG, network profile, the type of checking during top-down time scheduling is u201CEu201D: exit with error (transaction code OPUU).
Every WCM using transaction code CM01 doesnu2019t see the WBS constrains. So doesnu2019t know the wbs dates range. Moreover the WCMs donu2019t like a dashboard like CM01 because it is not user friendly. They prefer a graphical dashboard.
My personal idea to resolve this issue is use transaction code CM21 or similar with the display of wbs time lag. Is it possible?
Is there anyone who could help me, please? I am also interested in other technical solution.
Thanks in advance.

Venky,
1) Sales order when enter in the system can perform the capacity availability check ?
Not in ECC/R/3. However, in APO this is possible.
2) The delivery dates & confirmation in the sales order is on what basis?
Depends on how you have configured your availability check. There are a number of possibilities. Many companies confirm MTS orders to Total Replenishment Lead time in the Material master. Other companies leave the orders unconfirmed until Planning has created supply elements (production orders).
As far as the delivery date is concerned, it can also start with the confirmed material availability date as calculated by ATP, and then additionally schedule in the warehouse pick-pack-load times, and route transit time (the time it takes to move the shipment from your loading dock to the customer's location.
In 'Assemble to order' (a special version of Make To Order) it is possible to confirm to the scheduling time of the supporting Finished goods production orders combined with the availability of the components of the FG production order.
In R/3, some companies will confirm the MTS sales order to a date that is farther into the future than the actual estimated process time including capacity backlog. Then, they run MRP to create planned orders. Then, they run Capacity leveling. Then, they run BackOrderProcessing (rescheduling) of the sales orders to re-confirm to the planned or production orders that have been capacity leveled. In this way, Sales orders are indirectly confirmed to capacity.
Consult with your local SD and PP ATP experts to discover the options available.

Workflow Issues - Capacity planning

Hi All,
Can any one suggest some good practises and solution for this problem
Capacity planning:_
There are no standards currently available with the current team to determine the capacity based on number of instances, instance size, etc.
Thanks in Advance

It is a trial and error process.. Depends on the number of instances
the instance size should be restricted to 32KB only..
Look at tuning the engine in the Oracle 10GR3 BPM Admin manual... for all possible best practicess.
Especially look at the JVM heap size, instances threads, exec threads for automatic activities and manual activities as well as number of database pools and database connections for the engine db as well as external db..
Use Fuego.Fdi.DirHumanParticipant or DirOrganizationalRole or DirOrganizationalGroup instead of Fuego.Lib.Role for getting participants in groups etc..
This reduces the number of participants that should be in the cache and is helpful when an org has a lot of employees that are being pulled from the AD..
Look at some of the formulas for sizing etc..
One such formula in the manual is:-
Maximum Database Connections >= (# Interactive Exec Threads + # Automatic Exec Threads)
Make sure most of your instance variables are of the Category SEPERATED so that they consume less space and the instance size reduces..
I think the number of Project Variables should not be more than 256 and the number of Business Parameters should be more than 64.. Please check on this..
Depending on the number of instances and the size of project, make sure you run only a certain number of projects on one engine...

Operations are not getting despatched in capacity planning table

Hi Experts,
I am using capacity planning table (Graphical) to level the capacities and sequence the process orders. The start date of my orders are very well in future and sufficient capacities also is available in resources. But when I go to CM25 and select one order and click on despatch, system is not despatching it. This is the case for almost all the overall profiles.
The surprising factor is, this function was working fine earlier without any issues. I havent done any changes in configs which will affect capacity planning.
What can be the reason for this? Any thoughts please?.
One more thing. Is there any option to avoid the capacity planning step if Iam using R/3 and manage it by some other way?
Appreciate your earlier reply
Thanks & Regards
Prathib

Most likely you didnt define the rowsource key properly. Please look under <install>/errors folder for any file there.
Also, please read the documentation. There is information there about how to troubleshoot a loading problem. Please always read the documentation and we would appreciate feedback on the documentation.

Bandwidth Utilization Avg or Max for capacity Planning best practice

Hello All - This is a conceptual or Non-Cisco product question. Hope you can help me to get this best industry practice
I am doing a Capacity planning for the WAN Link Bandwidth. To study the last month bandwidth utilization in the MRTG graph, i am seeing two values
Average
Maximum.
To measure how much bandwidth my remote location is using which value i have to use. Average or Max?
Average is always low eg. 20% to 30%
Maximum is continuous 100% for 3 hour in 3 different intervals in a day and become 60% in rest of the day
What is the best practice followed in the networking industry to derive the upgrade size of the bandwidth by using the Utilization graph
regards,
SAIRAM

Hello.
It makes no sense to use average during whole day (or a month), as you do the capacity management to avoid business impact due to link utilization; and average does not help you to catch is the end-users experience any performance issues.
Typically your capacity management algorithm/thresholds are dependent on traffic patterns. As theses are really different cases if you run SAP+VoIP vs. youtube+Outlook. If you have any business critical traffic, you need to deploy QoS (unless you are allowed to increase link bandwidth infinitely).
So, I would recommend to use 95-percentile of maximum values on 5-15 minutes interval (your algorithm/thresholds will be really sensitive to pooling interval, so choose it carefully). After to collect baseline (for a month or so) - go and ask users about their experience and try to correlate poor experience with traffic bursts. This would help you to define thresholds for link upgrade triggers.
PS: proactive capacity management includes link planning for new sites and their impact on existing links (in HQ and other spoke).
PS2: also I would recommend to separately track utilization during business hours (business traffic) and non-business (service or backup traffic).

Capacity planning (performance tuning of WLP 8.1 SP6 application)

Hi Guys,
I have one question regarding the performance tuning of the weblogic portal application (or may be any J2EE application for that matter) :
I understand that there could be lot of performance bottleneck areas e.g
(a) network issues (not enough bandwidth),
(b) bottleneck because of the DBs,
(c) application design/coding
(d) JVM might not have been tuned as per the business requirement of the application
(e) lack of clustering
(f) hardware problems (CPUs, RAMs etc)
Inorder to do the capacity planning for such an enterprise applications, what would be the best starting point?
Is it a good idea to start and profile the application using some profiling tools like OptimizeIt or JProbe? and then analyze the profiling the data and conclusion can be drawn interms of what and where the major bottleneck is into the application and accordingly it can be worked upon.
Or if there is any better and elegant way doing capacity planning?
Thanks for your time.
Regards
Jameel

Hi
id say start with a load tool that simulates average/ peak behavior with varied inputs and exercise your site . then profile if necessary.
Also start with the critical/most used portions of your site.
Its difficult doing the above because unles your migrating noone really knows the expected usage of your site. And its hard for someone to specify acceptable response times.

Capacity planning for a 2 million hits / day site

Hi,
I am doing a feasibility study for a 2 million hits per day
e-commerce site.
We are looking at various vendors but would prefer an
Oracle solution.
One option I am looking
at is a three-tier server architecture with instances of
Oracle Application server running on one set
of machines and instances of Oracle 8/8i running on a second
set of machines.
Macromedia generated HTML would be auto-translated to PL/SQL
cartridges to generate the relevant WRBXs.
Has anyone any experience of the performance issues /
robustness of this type of large-scale
development.
In particular, I am looking for some hard numbers / capacity
planning model on:
Number of instances of Application Server;
Number / type of Application Server boxes - SpecInt / Flt and
memory;
Number of instances of RDBMS / parallel Oracle;
Number / type of RDBMS boxes - SpecInt / Flt and memory; and
External communications bandwidth.
Any advice, personal anecdotes, recommended sites, or
literature references much appreciated.

Hi,
1. Do cross forest authentication Go through Global Catalog?
Yes, cross-forest authentication relies on Global Catalogs of both forests.
2. Do Global catalogue cache ad object info if they are in different Forest. If not, how does the authentication request flow across the forest?
GC doesn’t cache information for objects from another forest. However, once a user has been authenticated and authorized, its service ticket remains (on the local machine) for a while before it logs off. The authentication request
is first received by the local DC, then GC, when GC couldn’t find a match in its own forest, it checks its database for trust information, if there is a name suffix matched, the authentication request is passed to the corresponding forest.
3. Is this calculation still the same when considering cross forest trusts?
Yes, establishing forest trust doesn’t consume much more space, because GC doesn’t store information of another forest.
4. Do we need to consider any other memory requirements in a cross forest trust environment?
Not really, as I mentioned above.

Vendor Capacity Planning

Hello Sir,
In Source Allocation, under Vendor Capacity Planning, I am trying to "Maintain Capacity Periods".
While entering the data at Material Level (the lowest level) in the Capacity subscreen.
I am getting the error message as
"Number ranges module termination:"
Could you please give me a clue of the possible problems or settings to be done.
Thanks in Advance, Ajay

Hi Ajay
I came across this issue yesterday and resolved it. You need to maintain 01 number range for Object J_3ACAPA in SNRO.

Capacity Plan for Partially Confirmed Order

Hi Guys
Can any one please guide me on Capacity Planning (CM29) how to:
1. Plan to plan a partial order. Or in other terms: how to plan a part order in wk1 and rest in wk2
2. If the process order is partially confirmed, then how should supervisor re-schedule it again for later date!
3. Ideally what should be followed:
a. Schedule the Planned Order on CM29 and then Convert them to Process Order , OR
b. Convert the Planned Order and then Schedule the Process Order on the CM29 screen
Thanks in advance
-Rahul

Hi Mehdi,
Once order status is PCNF you cannot create lot with inspection type as 03. You need to reverse all the confirmations/Goods issue and activate 03 inspection type in material master, maintain MIC related data in routing and do Read Master data. Then system will create inspection lot.
For 03 inspection type manually inspection lot cannot be created. Once order is released inspection lot will be automatically created by system.
Thanks & Regards,
Ramagiri

Capacity Planning & capacity leveling

Dear All,
If we have two Sales Orders in the same date for two different materials which will use the same work center for processing, and if we run the MRP then two planned orders will be generated. Here according to the capacity planning the system will calculate the number of days required to process in the work center and the job will be assigned to the work center for planned order 1. Then when the system tries to allocate jobs from the planned order 2 to the same work order then the system will show the over load. Then we have to do capacity leveling to remove the over load.
But the clientu2019s requirement is that when the system calculates the available capacity of a work center in the planning horizon, the system should not consider the time for which the job is already assigned from the planned order 1. And the system should assign the job from the planned order 2 to the work centeru2019s available (capacity) time excluding the (capacity) time for which the job is already assigned from the planned order 1 in that planning horizon. If there is no Available capacity in that planning horizon then the system shall show the over load and then the client shall go for the capacity leveling.
How to go about Please help.

Hello Satish,
Let me understand you issue:
You would like system to give overload only when there is no capacity available in planning horizon.
Did you try using tabular planning board ? Tabular planning board uses bucket principle. It will give overload only when the whole bucket is full. It will not check the date and time of planned order # 1. While allocating capacity to plannined order # 2, the bucket's full capacity will be checked. In your case try allocation bucket size equal to your planning horizon period.

Capacity planning 9iAS/Portal and/or 9iAS

I've looked all over metalink and otn, and can't find any good info on capacity planning for 9iAS/Portal, or 9iAS in general. #CPU, RAM, etc.
This is the closest I've gotten so far:
http://technet.oracle.com/products/ias/install-faq.html
http://otn.oracle.com/products/forms/pdf/6iscalability.pdf
Does Oracle just refers customers to their www.oracle.com/consulting ($?) group for this information, or is it documented somewhere that customers can see?
I understand that for a complex large scale enterprise Portal deployment that it would be necessary to hire consultants for hardware sizing and architecture, but there have to be some free guidelines that would be useful for customers with smaller requirements?
Thanks,

This was posted the day prior to our offline discussion. Am still interested in continuing our conversation (via this forum if you'd prefer).
Have you had a chance to look at the cacheability report that I had sent to you?
Aside from server clock issue I'd like to know what etags are used and generated by the portal infrastructure.
This is an important issue for our globalization project.
Many thanks and hope you're traveling safe!

Issue with Capacity Levelling-CM25

Hi Everyone,
We use CM25 for capacity levelling.
Issue:
Total Capacity req. = 186.8 Hr
Available Capacity on 01.01.2012 on the resource = 380.2 Hr
Now when I try to dispatch the capacity req. for a planned order manually on 01.01.2012, system distributes the capacity-
Distributed   Period
        5.0    31.12.2011
      23.8    01.01.2012
      23.8    02.01.2012
      23.8    03.01.2012
      23.8    04.01.2012
      23.8    05.01.2012
      23.8    06.01.2012
      23.8    07.01.2012
      15.6    08.01.2012
    186.8
But we want to dispatch capacity say on one particular day or split it onto two different days i.e. 90 Hrs on 01.01.2012 & 90 Hrs on 02.01.2012. Is it possible? If yes, how?
Additional Information-
Capacity Defination in resource-
No. of indiv. cap.   16
Operating time       23.76
Capacity             380.16
Relevant to finite scheduling
Thanks,
Parashar.

Hi Amol,
Thanks for your input.
As I have said I already have Capacity more than what is required.
Capacity Available per day: 380.2 Hr
Total Capacity Requirement: 186.8 Hr
I am trying to know that whether what issue has been raised is possible to solve in Capacity Levelling & How.
We are not maintaining shifts in SAP at present.
Thanks,
Parashar.

Capacity planning of a farm.

One of the customer wants to try the SharePoint as Content Management & Collaboration solution. Customer has 225000 users, 10,000 active users daily. Users are across the global. I am working on Farm design. Since Customer is not sure whether they will
opt the SharePoint so I am thinking that I should purpose minimum infrastructure that can handle the load. Initially Farm wouldn't have more than 1 TB of documents. Enterprise Search will also be enabled.
Should I purpose single farm that will be accessed across the globe. I suppose this will not work since WAN latency between three continents might be the issue.

SOA - EAM capacity planning

I have been handed an assignment to prepare "capacity planning documentation" for what is termed "Enterprise Application Messaging"(EAM). I am looking at the documentation for Oracle Fusion Middleware and in particular Oracle® Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle WebLogic Server 12c Release 1 (12.1.1) which has some basic installation prerequisites. This is a good start but I know that there is more to capacity planning in the context of this EAM notion like for instance a database to persist messages etc and then there are the "speeds and feeds" to consider.
My question is: Are there any white papers, best practices or Open World presentations that are more current than the 10g documentation and presentations I have found on searching that would cast the Oracle Fusion middleware more in a "generic EAM context" than this 12 C product installation documentation I am looking at?

Thank you for the quick reply and the great links you gave, I am reviewing them before proceeding.
I agree, the EAM is a mysterious acronym...I'm not sure who dreamed it up, but to me, it means SOA and OSB and that is what we will be building in a new datacenter. I believe it may be a "home grown" acronym to try to keep from becoming too vendor oriented with our high level documentation...we have a bunch of Microsoft afecianados here who would like to place something like "Biztalk" into the mix, so maybe they got the powers to be to invent a more generic acronym.
Yes, I have also found that I need to look at the 11g not 12C docs due to certification issues, hopefully resolved in a couple of weeks I'm told.
There are some great diagrams you pointed me to and I sincerely appreciate your quick reply...thanks a million!
