MARS - inbound packet error rate high for unrouted VLAN

After upgrade to 4.2.2, we are getting lots of inbound packet error rate high for some unrouted vlan in Cisco 6509. I did some sniff and find that MARS try to get ifInErrors of those unrouted vlan. But the unrouted vlan only support ifOutUcastPkts and ifInUcastPkts.
I just wondering is there some bug in the MARS or there are some kind of database corruption.

Any reason you wouldn't just create a drop rule or modify the inspection rule that is firing?
btw, have a look here to make sure it isn't the same issue:

Cisco Network Assistant not tracking Bandwidth or Packet Errors

Hello,
I'm running CNA 5.8(5). When I go into the Health section I see bar graphs for everything but Bandwidth Utilization and Packet Error Rate. Those are showing at 0%. All other windows are showing percentages and I see them updating ever 1 minute per the polling interval. Switches are 2960s stacked together.
Does anyone have any idea why I am not getting readings for those 2 categories?
Thanks in advance. Replies rated.

PGC has an error--data rate of this file is too high for DVD

Getting one of those seemingly elusive PGC errors, though mine seems to be different from many of the ones listed here. Mine is telling me that the data rate of my file is too high for DVD. Only problem is, the file it's telling me has a datarate that is too high, is a slideshow which Encore has built using imported jpg files. I got the message, tried going into the slideshow and deleting the photo at the particular spot in the timeline where it said it had the problem, now getting the same message again with a different timecode spot in the same slideshow. The pictures are fairly big, but I assumed that Encore would automatically resize them to fit an NTSC DVD timeline. Do I need to open all the pictures in Photoshop and scale them down to 720x480 before I begin with the slideshows?

With those efforts, regarding the RAM, it would *seem* that physical memory was not the problem.
I'd look to how Windows is managing both the RAM addresses and also its Virtual Memory. To the former, I've seen programs/Processes that lock certain memory addresses upon launch (may be in startup), and do not report this to Windows accurately. Along those lines, you might want to use Task Manager to see what Processes are running from startup on your machine. I'll bet that you've got some that are not necessary, even if IT is doing a good job with the system setup. One can use MSCONFIG to do a trial of the system, without some of these.
I also use a little program, EndItAll2 for eliminating all non-necessary programs and Processes, when doing editing. It's freeware, has a tiny footprint and usually does a perfect job of surveying your running programs and Processes, to shut them down. You can also modify its list, incase it wants to shut down something that IS necessary. I always Exit from my AV, spyware, popup-blocker, etc., as these progams will lie to EndItAll2 and say that they ARE necessary, as part of their job. Just close 'em out in the Tasktray, then run EndItAll2. Obviously, you'll need to do this with the approval of IT, but NLE machines need all available resources.
Now, to the Virtual Memory. It is possible that Windows is not doing a good job of managing a dynamic Page File. Usually, it does, but many find there is greater stability with a fixed size at about 1.5 to 2.5x the physical RAM. I use the upper end with great results. A static Page File also makes defragmenting the HDD a bit easier too. I also have my Page File split over two physical HDD's. Some find locating to, say D:\ works best. For whatever reason, my XP-Pro SP3 demanded that I have it on C:\, or split between C:\ and D:\. Same OS on my 3 HDD laptop was cool having it on D:\ only. Go figure.
These are just some thoughts.
Glad that you got part of it solved and good luck with the next part. Since this seems to affect both PrPro and En, sounds system related.

PS some IT techs love to add all sorts of monitors to the computers, especially if networkded. These are not usually bad, but are usually out of the mainstream, in that most users will never have most of these. You might want to ask about any monitors. Also, are you the only person with an NLE computer under the IT department? In major business offices, this often happens. Most IT folk do not have much, if any, experience with graphics, or NLE workstations. They spend their days servicing database, word processing and spreadsheet boxes.

How do you fix error message "data rate for this file is too high for DVD. You must replace this file with one of a lower data rate".

When trying to burn a DVD it will go through the encoding step and at 98% we see the message 'data rate for this file is too high for DVD. You must replace this file with one of a lower data rate". We need help to correct this so we can complete burning to DVD.

Inbound IDOC error (Name MARA is not in the namespace for generated BW Metaobjects)

Hi everybody,
we are currently having some issues with importing idocs into our ERP DEV System and i cannot figure out what the problem could be.
I am trying to import an IDOC Type ARTMAS (5) but i keep getting the following error "Name MARA is not in the namespace for generated BW Metaobjects"
The system is a ERP only system with no BI content activated at all.
I don´t find any more errors nor any dumps or SLG1 entries related to this issue.
Did someone already experienced that kind of problem, or do some of you maybe have an idea where to have a deeper look.
thanks & best regards

Hi Gorge,
The "Ref count error..." usually occurs in case of Meta Data objects not being properly cleared. And yes, you have got the error in the right place, generally while creating tables / fields / UDOs. For this, you just need to clear the Meta Data object (At times even DI objects like Record Set) once they are used.
Eg: Release these objects in the below way in a Finally Block.
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oRecordSet);
Hope this helps.

Exchange rate type for version - error message GP541 during confirmation

Hi FICO Experts,
I bumped into a problem during confirmation in CO15. (I would like to get the SFG by mvt 101 and consume the raw material by 261).
The error messase I get is:
Maintain the exchange rate type for version 000 in 2009
Message no. GP541
Diagnosis
You want to use plan version 000 with controlling area 1000 in fiscal year 2009.
You have not specified an exchange rate type for this plan version for fiscal year 2009. Since the update of all currencies in 2009 is active in the control indicators of the controlling area, currency conversions are possible and sometimes also needed.
It is therefore necessary to specify an exchange rate type for plan version 000 in year 2009.
System Response
The system will not accept your entry.
Procedure
1. Please maintain plan version 000 first using the function 'Change Plan Version', or
2. correct your typing error.
I'd like to ask you to please help to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Csaba

go to Maintain Version at SPRO-Controlling-General Controlling-Organization->Maintan Version and do what ever it says. Provide Exchange rate type P or M would resolve your issue

WRP400: audio drops for 5..15 seconds on each packet error.

Hi,
On several calls i noticed that the outgoing audio stops for 5..15 seconds randomly.
I'd say it happens on an average of every 5 minutes.
When this happens, i can see that the value after "Call1 Packet error:" increases by one.
Why just a wrong packet may stop the outgoing audio for so long?
...i've much more packet losts (about 3%) but they give me no problem at all.
Since a little and cheaper Handytone HT502 gave me intermittent audio too, but the effect was much better (audio still stops, but in a second it comes back), i wonder if is there something i can do by tweaking the WRP400 settings, I'm still using firmware 1.01.00.
Thanks.

Error: Ref count for this object is higher then 0

Hello All,
I am trying to create User Defined Tables in SAP through Coding but while running the code the error "Ref count for this object is higher then 0 " is showing .
I have created a temporary table in which the Table Description are stored as follows :-
Create Table Test_Table (TblCode Varchar(30),TblName Varchar(100),TblType int)
From this table then using recordset i am getting the table details for creation :-

                oUserTablesMD = Nothing
But while running this code the error is coming .
How to solve this error ........
Thanks,
Amit

First of all, you are not meant to create temporary table in SAP database. SAP have never made an official announcement, but I think they would not be too happy if they saw it and may withdraw support. Just something to be aware of.
Secondly, your error is very common and you would have found the solution by searching the forum. It is caused by having an open recordset while trying to use a metadata object.
You will have to change how your code works. You can not use the UserFieldsMD or UserTablesMD object while you have an undisposed recordset object.
-1120 - Ref count for this object is higher then 0
Ref count for this object is higher then 0
Error: Ref count for this object is higher then 0
Meaning of Error Msg: "Ref count for this object is higher than 0"
The solution is you must dispose of any recordset object before attempting to use the UserTablesMD object:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComObject(oRecordSet)
oRecordSet= Nothing
GC.Collect()
GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers()

Frequent SNR drops and high error rates

Heya all,
As of the past few days, I've been having issues with my BT Infinity 2 connection suffering from long periods where the SNR drops, and error rates increase. I've contacted support on the phone, but sadly unless I'm using a Home hub, they won't help me, and I don't have one to use. I've offered to provide them with any information they require by email, but they say it's not possible to send them anything. They've tried several line tests and they insist that everything is fine with the line, and that I must have faulty hardware on my end.
For a bit of history; I've had this connection since March 2012. When it was first set up, I was getting no interleaving down or up, and I was getting over the 40/10 I was quoted. A few months later, I was given an upgrade to 80/20. The interleaving remained at 0 both directions, and latency was around 12ms to bbc.co.uk (as an example). As time went on, errors began to show in my modem logs, the speed began to drop, interleaving kicked in, and the latency has increased. I called them about it originally, and an engineer came out. They replace the face plate, gave us a new modem, and issues an line reset. This solved the problem completely for a few months. Around 2 months later, the same things began to happen again. I called support again, but this time, I was outside of my contract period, so they effectively refused to help unless I was using their Home Hub thing, and blamed my equipment. Since this last call, things have steadilly got worse, until recently when the SNR drops began to occurr...
All I want is my connection how it was when I first changed to 80/20, with no interleaving. Nothing has changed in my flat since the connection was installed. There have been issues with street lighting and roadworks in the past, but I believe these were resolved. I suspect that there is a fault with either our line down to the distribution box downstairs (BT's responsibility) or the wire from there to the cabinet (Ashton-under-Lyne, Cabinet 6) (also BT's responsibility). I would ask for an engineer to come out, but I know they won't find a problem (even though there is clearly one there) and I'll get charged for a call-out, and still have my problem! What can I do to try and get it back to how it was?
Asn additional note, there's a neighbor of mine around the corner who's got the same product, going to the same cabinet, and they don't have any of these problems.
This is the current state of my connection as of 2014/07/17 09:47:35:
http://brins0.net:5555/~mhisani/vdsl/2014-07-17/ConnectionStats-2014-07-17-09.47.35.txt
Here are a few graphs of the SNR when these drops have occurred:
There are many days worth of stats here to browse:

Router: Asus N66U (Tomato v1.28)

Please help!

Hi all,
I have an error when i run ASKB transaction, the system displays error message SG 105: "Enter rate EUR /SKK rate type & for 00.00.0000 in the system settings".

Could you please help me on that?
Thanks in advance

Hello,
This is not the place where you should look into. You looking at the parallel currencies maintained in the system.
However, you have to look for exchange rates are being matained between two currencies.
Either you can maintain a direct quote or an indirect quote.
Please go to transaction code OB08
Some important notes for your information:
Currency Key must be assigned to every currency used. Most of the currencies are
Already defined in the SAP system with standard international currency keys.
For every combination of two currencies, you can maintain different exchange rates
Which are distinguished by an exchange rate type.
Exchange Rate Types are:
Historical Rate
Bank Selling Rate
Bank Buying Rate
Average Rate
the rate on certain key dates
u2026u2026
Translation Ratios: The relationship between currencies must be maintained per
Exchange rate type and currency pair using translation ratios. E.g., 1 USD = 1 GBP
Or 1 USD = 100 JPY.
There are two types of Quotations available in SAP:
Direct Quotation
Indirect Quotation
In Direct Quotation, one unit of foreign currency is quoted for the local
Currency, where as in indirect quotation, one unit of local currency is
quoted for the foreign currency.
Direct Quotation: 1 USD = 44 INR
One unit of foreign currency USD costs the displayed number of units of local currency
Indirect Quotation: 1 INR = 0.02273 USD
For one unit of the local currency INR you will receive the displayed number of units
of foreign currency.
You are looking at the following place: (This may have performance problems, unless it is a critical business requirement)
You can maintain two parallel currencies in additional to local currency or
Company Code Currency. You can select two currencies from the
following currencies:
Group currency
Group currency is the currency which is specified in the client table or
which is to be entered there.
Hard Currency
Hard currency is a country-specific second currency which is used in
countries with high inflation.
Index-based currency
Index-based currency is a country-specific fictitious currency
which is required in some countries with high inflation for external
reporting (for example, tax returns).
Global company currency
Global company currency is the currency which is used for an internal trading partner.
Maintaining the two parallel currencies would highly impact the system performance as
the system is preparing additional two ledgers, besides the normal ledger.
Thanks,
Ravi

How does "memscaling" works?
I also think that are high but it is the way it was configured before I managed the application. For my DB

Hi
I got the same error and it actually prevents from getting further, because its treated as an error.
"ERROR: To be able to use ASU Toolbox, your system requires at
       least Support Package Level 8 for the ST-PI software component
       For more information, see the upgrade documentation
WARNING: The version 2008_1_620 of the Add-on ST-PI is too high for this upgrade (> 2005_1_700).
         To avoid loss of data it is necessary to include the latest available version for the Add-on
         in the IS_SELECT phase.
         Please refer to Add-on note 69455 for further information."
2008_1_620 does not have a level 8, so it must be refering to the 2005 version of ST-PI.
Update SAPup.exe (in <upgrade dir>/bin) to newest version.

Kim

Packet Errors?

I just signed-up for ClearWire. So far, it's working great and much faster than my regular DSL (I had 768Mbps but now have 1.5Gbps). Because I live in an Apartment building where I can see eight other wireless networks, I have a WPA2 (Personal) password on my AirPort Express. I have the light enabled to display network activity and previously with the regular DSL, I used see some activity that I couldn't explain. Now with the ClearWire modem attached the activity light is going absolutely bonkers. It appears that I'm downloading constantly even if I turn AirPort off all the computers here. I can check with the AirPort Management Utility and it appears that only my computers are connected (when turned on). I called ClearWire support and they said I'd have to check my router's manufacturer to explain the local network activity and could not confirm that the ClearWire modem was kind of "chatty" on the local network. In fact, they had no way to tell if any outside activity (leaving the LAN) was happening through my modem.
While I'm not overly concerned about the activity light now, while checking the AirPort Management Utility just now, I noticed that under my Monitor tab, the Rx Packets errors on my MacBook are approximately 15 times greater than the actual normal packets. For example, if I have 100,000 normal packets, my (errors) are (1,500,000). Should I be concerned about this? Anyone know why this might be happening or how to fix it? Any advice before I call ClearWire support back? I will admit, I never noticed the errors with my regular DSL, but I did check in the AirPort Management Utility every once in a while and I think they would have stood out.

I would definately agree with you that the number of error packets you're experiencing is way too high. Might it be the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) setting is not optimized with your new ISP?
To do so, you can use a utility, like Cocktail or via OS X's Terminal.
As you probably already know, MTU will vary with connection type. Cable and non-PPPoE, can use up to 1500, whereas PPPoE connections (WinPoet, RASPPPOE, Enternet, etc.) can only use up to 1492.
The best value for MTU is that value just before the packets get fragmented. To test, use the Ping utility.
OS X: ping -D -s 1472 www.dslreports.com
WinXP: ping -f -l 1472 www.dslreports.com
Reduce 1472 by 10 until you no longer get the “packet needs to be fragmented” error message. Then increase by 1 until you are 1 less from getting the same error message. Add 28 more to this (since your ping packet size, not including IP/ICMP header is 28 bytes). This will be your MaxMTU. (Note: If you can ping thru at 1472, stop, you’re done! Add 28 and your MaxMTU is 1500.)
