My long-term Goal

Iam a java beginer,just I can develop simple java applications.
But I want to be an expert JSP web developer .
What are the things that I should do, the techniques that I should study and what are the short-tearm goals that I should achieve to accomplish my long-term goal . What the time and the experiences that are needed to achieve my goal?

Write your goal down and yes a technical architect would be the correct goal to achive as a java developer. Then write down what price you will have to pay to achive it. I'm working towards that same goal myself and I asked the people that had already achieved what I was trying to do and then I wrote what they said down as my plan.
Basically, it's as follows and it's the same in any profession:
1.) Pick something you enjoy doing. I assume you like programming as more than a job. If you don't do this, you won't be able to get through the inevitable problems and frustrations that occur in the daily work.
2.) Put in extra time everyday towards your goal. It could be learning a new technology like Hibernate or Ajax or whatever. Set goals to achive certifications or accomplishments at work. 40 hours a week is for survival, anything over that puts you on the side of the angels. The top java devs put in an extra 2-3 hours of self-study daily. They don't quit this after 6 months either.
3.)Don't quit on your plan.
4.)I don't like to set timelines for this, but I would think in 3 to 5 years you will be at the technical architect level.
HTH,
James

  • DPM 2010 Short and Long Term goals

    My question is related to size restrictions.
    Our existing DPM 2010 is setup with two protections groups, System State, and a Default (file) protection group. Both are set up the same. A co worker recently had to re-create a protection group due to his negligence and deleted it without looking at how
    it was setup in the first place, since then I've been having errors in backing up to tape:
    Synchronization frequency is set to just before recovery point
    Short term goals are:
    Recovery points are at 8:00 AM, 12:00PM, 6:00PM Everyday, Express Full is 8:00PM Everyday
    Long term goals are:
    Retention range 2 weeks, Frequency Weekly (1 recovery point every 1 week for the last 2 weeks)
    Full backups are set to Saturday at 11:00 PM
    Here's the thing, we have 3x3TB external drives that, historically have been swapped out weekly (Monday mornings, using Firestreamer for tape emulation). Since the co-worker broke, and re-created the protection groups, when we view DPM Console on Monday
    morning, we see that the backup jobs are failing, the 3TB drive is full. 
    Could this 3TB drive be full due to this weekly swapping out when it is set to a retention range of 2 weeks? Obviously, it could be because the protection group actually contains that much data, but I'm trying to wrap my head around sync frequency, recovery
    points and how that works into recovery goals. 
    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    Right. After the registry key is added, all new recovery points written to tape will show they expire at midnight (12:00am) on they day they expire so any tape jobs that run later that day will be able to use that tape after the expiry
    date.
    To prevent tape jobs from failing because there are no tapes available, you can also add this registry value.
    During a new tape backup or if a tape becomes full and there are no other tapes marked free, Free (contains data) or expired in the library, DPM will raise an alert to prompt for another free tape to continue backup.  The same is true during a
    restore, if the needed tape is not in the library an alert will be raised.  By Default, DPM It will wait for
    1 hour before failing the job.
    This prompting timeout can be configured by the registry entry “PromptingTimeOut” under “HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\1.0\Prompting”
    PromptingTimeOut:REG_Dword:43200000  (dec) = 12hrs
    The Formula is   (#hrs * 1000 * 60 * 60)
    1HR =  1*1000*60*60 =  3600000  decimal
    So for each hour to wait, multiply by 3600000.
    8hrs = 28800000  decimal
    Restart the DPMRA service.

  • What actually gets written to tape by long-term protection?

    I've been reviewing our long term recovery goals and am confused by the Customize Recovery Goal screen. The only documentation I can find for it only gives brief descriptions and is for 2010, I'm using 2012 R2.
    Customizing Recovery Goals for Long-Term Protection
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff399209.aspx
    I notice it says 'Back up every:' under the recovery goals, not 'colocate'. Does this mean that it will take a backup and write it directly to tape instead of writing the recovery points on disk to tape?
    The specify long-term goals screen in the Modify Group wizard says 'All long-term tape-based protection uses full backups.' Does this mean the file and application recovery points from the short term protection aren't written to tape?

    Hi,
    <snip>
    What actually gets written to tape by long-term protection?
    >snip<
    It really depends if you are using short-term to disk or not.
    1) You are using short-term to disk, long term to tape (D2D2T)
           In this configuration the last successful disk based recovery point is written to tape. 
           The data is read from DPM recovery point and copied to tape.
    2) You are using short-term to tape and long term to tape (D2T2T)
         The first LT recovery goal is a full backup taken from the protected server.
          Other LT goals are tape copies from lesser goals, so you need multiple tape drives.
    As noted - all long term tape backups are full backups, no incremental backups are possible.

  • Make sure you set real short-term goal.

    Elevate GF Make sure you set real short-term goals. Doing too much too fast will only result in harm. After finding your baseline strength, attempt to modestly improve every routine. Don't be surprised if you occasionally blow past short-term goals. This can help build motivation and lead you to never missing a workout. You should eat one hour before and one hour after a workout. A snack that is high in protein and low in sugars or fats will keep your body properly fueled. Later on, you can get more serious by measuring out protein and planning a more specific meal plan.

    Sorry for the length, got carried away trying to touch on main points.
    Okay, 2006 model, which came out Aug 2006-7.
    Heat. Good idea to run SmcFanControl 2.x to run default rpm 800-900 instead of too slow 500-600. Heat really harms those extra hot FBDIMM RAM chips.
    You need to boot from another hard drive to repair your boot drive.
    I would not go with DU and trust its verify. Alsoft Disk Warrior.
    You probably have a dying OEM Nvidia 7300GT or ATI X1900 that clogs itself with dust (poor air chamber design) and has to be pulled and cleaned 3-4x a year. There is even a recall-exchange program for some of the ATI X1900s, based on card serial number.
    Upgrades almost never do fix problems with hardware except once in awhile where graphic card drivers can always use some help.
    At the least, to repair your drive, boot from SL DVD and "Utility Menu => Disk Utility" until you have OS X installed on a small 30GB "emergency Mac" volume (from which to run DU but also Disk Warrior).
    I am not a fan of upgrading the OS to a new version. Format a new drive, and even actually new drives can ship with bad sectors. Think they don't? it would cost much more and longer to test even 1TB drive. And format a drive with Disk Utility from the new OS with Disk Utility, not older version.
    I would do a +clean install+ of 10.6 to another hard drive and fully update that and test things out. Then, clone/backup that with SuperDuper (safety net) and install software (10.6 upgrade editions that are compatible only).
    You may have something left in your system or installed that is corrupt, not compatible. Even a bad USB cable or device.
    Then import (Migrate) or hand copy your home account from backup (data is usually fine, thinking of /account/Library/ items.
    Creating a new user account can also be helpful to test a system, but first do a clean install so you know you are only using Apple OS.

  • Extending Long-Term Protection (tape)

    Hi all,
    This should hopefully be a simple Q&A.  I'm using local disk for short-term backup - roughly 30 days.  I also have a tape library attached that I use for Long-Term protection. The protection group is configured to keep weekly run tapes for
    8 weeks, and the monthly tapes are marked to keep for 3 years.
    If I reconfigure the protection group to keep the monthly tapes for 5 years, will it update the time-stamp for any previously writtent monthly tape?
    Example:  On May 1, a monthly tape was written w/ a 3 year retention period (as per the protection group).  If I edit the PG to reflect 5 years instead of 3, will that tape on May 1 update with the 5 year retention policy?  Or will it still only
    reflect 3 years, because that was the policy at the time of the write?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Yes, by default the monthly tape recovery points should reflect the new recovery retention period.  We introduced a registry setting to prevent that from occurring for customers who do not want the default behavior.
    DPM 2012 Sp1 UR2 KB2706783 see Issue 8
    Expiry dates for valid datasets that are already written to tape are changed when the retention range is changed during a protection group modification.
    For example, a protection group is configured for long-term tape recovery points with custom long-term recovery goals. Recovery Goal 1 has a smaller retention range than other recovery goals. In this configuration, if a protection group is changed to remove
    Recovery Goal 1 and to keep other recovery goals, the datasets that were created by using Recovery Goal 1 have their retention range changed to the retention range of the other recovery goals.
    To work around this problem, create the IsDatasetExpiryDateChangeInModifyPgAllowed DWORD under the following subkey, and then set its value to 0:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Data Protection Manager\Configuration\MediaManager

  • How to automatic post the profit OR loss to short term Capital / long term

    Hi,
    How to automatic post the profit OR loss to Short term Capital gain / Long term capital gain on posting of Sales transaction ?
    Incase the inventory item is less than one year older then the difference should be posted to the G/L of Short term Capital gain, where as if the item is more than one year older then the difference should be posted to the G/L of Long term Capital gain
    Thanks in advance
    Samir Gandhi

    I don't think any logic can be used to reach your goal.  How B1 system should post in such a fussy conditions?
    In case the inventory item is less than one year older then the difference should be posted to the G/L of Short term Capital gain
    How can you identify these items?  An inventory is a moving concept like a river. It come and goes with all different ways even as to value and revalue them.
    Please follow the common sense to face reality.
    Thanks,

  • DPM 2012 - stand alone drive - Short/Long term protection to tape

    We are migrating from BE to DPM 2012. I'm trying to configure DPM 2012 for both short term & long term protection - both using tape (stand alone drive). The goal is:
    Daily backups (Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu) - 2 weeks retention
    Weekly backup (Friday) - 4 weeks retention
    Monthly backup (last weekly backup) on every month - 15 m onths retention
    I've configured the short term protection for daily and weekly backups. Monthly backups are configured under long term protection. Daily and weekly backups are working as expected. However when it comes time for the Monthly, the DataSet copy jobs are failing.
    As I understand it, DPM is expecting another drive to copy the weekly backup tape.
    How I can achieve above goals ? Backup to disk is not an option.

    Hi,
    Any time DPM schedules a dataset copy job, you will need more than one tape drive, there is no way around that requirement.

  • Long Term BPC Landscape Scale

    Hello,
    BPC NW7.5 is new to my organization and we are using it for Financial Actuals Review, Goals and Forecasting. We are not using it for Consolidation at this time. 
    I am considering long-term growth strategy for the tool.  We use a single APPSET with 8 apps and 25 dimensions.
    Our largest dimension is about 45k records, all others are much much smaller (few thousands).
    I am wondering if this is sustainable to continue with a single APPSET as we possibly sunset other tools (Database analytical tools & Excel plug-ins) and bring them into BPC for native analysis.  As our capabilities grow I see new applications coming online for forecasting and incorporating additional teams' financial results.
    We will be using latest service pack soon, and likely upgrading to V10 in the next year or two.
    Please let me know thoughts on this model or if you have examples of other real-world blueprints -
    Also am curious about # users per application.  What is common?
    Thanks experts!

    I believe there is nothing that exists in the world, unless you pay huge money for Solid State Hard Drives. The only solution I see is using a bunch of rewritable double layer Blu-ray discs. I don't think there is any proper solution for what your looking for. Your looking for the perfect that doesn't exist.
    I'm not sure how long SSDs will last and I don't think there is any reliable information out there, wether an SSD I plugin now will still work in ten years. Plus you would need one hell of a lot SSDs to store Terabytes of data. BlueRay is probably worse than DVD regarding reliability, until the manufacturers get more experience with them.
    Am I the only one to see a pattern with dav7 opening threads looking for things which don't exist?

    I am a long-term user of Lightroom as a standalone product with a perpetual licence. As a retired person on limited income, it is very disappointing to me that Adobe have introduced the 'Creative Cloud' (CC) subscription service in order for me to be able to continue upgrading this excellent product. It will be for me too expensive at the minimum cost of £9 per month. The additional services that CC brings are personally of no relevance or usefulness. Adobe should be prepared to support existing users who are, like myself, non commercial, amateur photographers by giving them the simple opportunity to upgrade to Lightroom 6 as a standalone, perpetual licence product. As a member of a camera club I know my co-members who use Lightroom are equally disappointed by this move to a subscription-only service.

    Other differences - with CC you get LrMobile/LrWeb and they throw in a free copy of Photoshop too.
    Yes, but when I bought my standalone license and clicked on the "Download" button it took me to the LightroomCC page. The downloaded file is named Lightroom 6, but in the CC app the installed program is LightroomCC (2015).

    Can I run my MacBook Pro Late 2008 without battery forever? Is it bad in long term or anything? Does it make the system less stable?
    My battery got swollen (and I unfortunately noticed it very late and might have be running with it for months, which potentially explains all the crashes everyday and the trackpad not working anymore, the Apple test also says I have a bar of ram broken...) and I had to remove it because the back pannel did not close anymore... Can I still use my MBP normally forever that way? I was planning on buying a new mac anyway but maybe waiting for the next iMac upgrade in the year... Should I wait?

    Other than the system shutting down instantly if you have a power outage, whcih could corrupt the OS. Nothing else bad will happen.

  • I am a very long term customer how is now very disappointed with Verizon!

    I am writing in to give one final try at gaining a positive response from Verizon.  I called in to talk to Customer Service today with a request and was really disappointed at getting a NO for a response.   I have a family plan with 4 phones of varying contract/upgrade dates.  Mine…6/10/15. Wife’s…5/29/14.  Mom’s…6/20/13.   Son…4/11/16.  Two of the phones are past their date and thus we can upgrade without additional fees.   I will be disconnecting my mom’s phone as she hasn’t used it since 8/6 and won’t be using it as she is moving into a Memory Care facility for Alzhiemers.   Thus my request was whether there was a way to upgrade my phone and my wifes phone to the iPhone 6 without having to pay an added fee for upgrading mine early.   I asked that they take into account that my mom’s is 16 months past her upgrade date, I am 9 months from mine and we are very very long term customers. Verizon has been our cell phone company ever since we bought cell phones a long time ago.  I was told NO.    I then told the service rep that if I have to wait until 6/10/15, I have no real reason to stay with Verizon as saying no to this request just makes no sense when it is being ask by a customer of such long standing.  I was told NO again.  Even though I am clearly not a customer that hops from one cell phone service provider to another...Verizon told me NO.  Even if it costs a bit more to switch to AT & T (which it may or may not...I don't know)…on 6/11/15 my wife and I will be leaving Verizon and my son can have an individual account.

    You sign a contract promising to a 2 yr service commitment in exchange for a substantial discount on a phone. You are 9 months from completing your commitment. There is no reason for Verizon to grant your request. In fact, they may be contractually obligated to NOT do so depending on their terms for selling the iPhone negotiated with Apple.
    In the past, Verizon has been lenient(by a month or 2 but never 9 months) with approving an early upgrade, but NEVER with an iPhone. The reason for this has been hinted at being because of the contract terms Verizon has with Apple. Verizon is not going to jeopardize their ability to have iPhones on their network to satisfy your demand.
    Currently, there is a limited time offer to upgrade early with Verizon if you are eligible to get a discounted upgrade by 11/15/2014. Unfortunately you fall outside of that window.
    Good luck with the new provider, you will be unlikely to ever get an early upgrade at another provider either.

  • Transfer of results From M.I.C to Batch in case of Long Term Inspection

    Hi Gurus,
    We have maintained long term inspection in the control indicators in the inspection plan and also assigned Class Characteristics to M.I.C.
    We are following these procedure for Result recording.
    1) we are doing U.D and then posting to unrestriced stock
    2) We are doing result recording.
    In our case the result from M.I.C are not transferred to Batch
    and the Status is Long Term Inspection,Short inspection completed and transfer posting completed.We are not getting Status Long Term Inspection completedand the results are not transferred to batch.What might the reason for this.
    Regards
    Amit

    You must redo the UD to have the results transfer.  (Providing of course your setup is correct and the transfer happens for regular characteristics at the first UD)
    I would recommend that you create two UD codes.  The first one might be ALTP - Accepted, Long-term Pending.
    After the LT characteristic is recorded, use QA12 to change the UD to ACC - Accept.  When you save, the resutls should be transferred.

  • Long Term Planning-Planning File Entry

    Hi Gurus/Friends
    In the long term planning after PIR with inactive version and creating Scenario, assinging versions, Plants,....then
    during Release+Save it is giving the Result of Planning File Entries
    Logically the system has suppose to give the Number of Planning File Entries in Propotionate to the Specific Planning Scenario number and materials inside
    But it is giving for all the Materials inside the Plant
    Is there any settings to restrict the Planning File Entry creation w.r.t Planning scenario during Release+Save
    other than the solutions through Transaction MS20,MS22 and MSAB
    (Because during Release+save logically it has to call the MS22 t.code  and do planning file entries for the materials in that scenario)
    Awaiting for reply
    thanks
    K.Prabakaran

    Hi,
    Please Refer Below SAP help .
    *Releasing a planning scenario*
    You first have to release a planning scenario before you can plan it in the long-term planning run. When you release the planning scenario, the system creates planning file entries for all materials in all the plants allocated to the planning scenario. There is a separate planning file entry for this purpose. This guarantees that your operative planning is kept completely separate from your simulative planning. This long-term planning file contains all the materials that are also contained in the operative planning file. After the release, every change relevant to MRP triggers an entry in the planning file as in operative planning.
