Need help in multiuser environment

My project is in java and it is based on the concept of thin client.
I have a Server program running on one computer and a client program runs on the other.
In my project the event keyboard/mouse processing is done on the server and these events are generated on the client. The server sends down images to the client at regular intervals a. When an event is generated e.g. when we click on a word doc icon then event is fired on the server and that application opens on the server and the images of the application are sent to the client. So the images are not stored on the client.
Now my problem come when I want to handle multiple users .
I need a way to handle multiple users. How do i create sessions for multiple users and how do i make use of virtual desktop to handle the images of diiferent applications that different users will be acessing simultaneously.
I also need a way to make all this work faster.Thanks.

I need a way to handle multiple users. How do i create sessions for multiple users and how do i make use of virtual desktop to handle the images of diiferent applications that different users will be acessing simultaneously.Yeah well then you need to DEVELOP a way. You really think that just by explaining the basics of your problem people will be able to help you? Sit down and think about your problem. Write down the requirements. Put some effort into it and if you really can't figure it out, report your findings to us so we can help you with that. Don't bluntly ask for help and give us nothing to help you with.
I also need a way to make all this work fasterAgain, this is totally up to you. If you develop your application properly, it will be as fast as it is going to get.

Need help on setup environment

Hello all,
I downloaded Coherence 3.5.3 and installed in a cluster of 4 Linux boxes. My goal is to setup a cluster with 4 DistributedCache servers and test the performance to see how fast this cluster can run.
- Linux box: Intel Xeon dual core, 8GB memory
- First step: I followed the instruction from:
http://wiki.tangosol.com/display/COH35UG/Create+and+Use+Coherence+Caches
And create a Java application which has a loop of 500000 put(), ran it as a Distributed Cache server (localstorage=true) and no other server running. The result was more than 30000 put() per second.
- Second step: I ran one sample cache server (/bin/cache-server.sh) and ran my application as a client (localstorage=false), and the result went down to around 2000 put() per second.
* I tried to change:
- thread-count: 0 - 16
- backup-count: 0 - 1
- server & client: on same node, on different nodes.
- also ran my application as a server, on the same node, on the different nodes.
The result was still around 2000 put()/second.
I am trying to figure out why the performance going from 30k down to 2k/second. I probably did not have the right setup here.
Any help, suggestions are much appreciated.
Regards,
Duc

When runing all in a single JVM there is no communication going on (keys and values are as far as I know still serialized however). But as soon as you use more than one JVM (even if they are on the same machine) you will add a significant overhead (latency) to each put request by going through the OS communication stack.
You can verify this in several ways:
* Try using bulk put requests (say 1000 items at the time) - this should improve your performance (measured in how long it takes to insert say 50000 items) since the number of calls to the communication stack is reduced
* Try increasing the number of threads in the client until you see no further improvement (this should increase performance since multiple requests can be in progress in parallel)
In order to get more comparable numbers when going from a single JVM to multiple JVMs you should keep backup count to zero - otherwise all data is sent to two JVMs rather than one making the difference between the two scenarios even larger!
Best Regards
Magnus
P.S In general ity is also better to use putAll (even for a single item!) since it does not require the remote cache to return the old value (unless you really need the old value for some reason of course!). In your case the old value is always null (I supose you insert new objects all the time with unique keys) so this advantage will not play a big role but if the old object is large the added overhead is significant!

Need help with Berkeley XML DB Performance

We need help with maximizing performance of our use of Berkeley XML DB. I am filling most of the 29 part question as listed by Oracle's BDB team.
Berkeley DB XML Performance Questionnaire
1. Describe the Performance area that you are measuring? What is the
current performance? What are your performance goals you hope to
achieve?
We are measuring the performance while loading a document during
web application startup. It is currently taking 10-12 seconds when
only one user is on the system. We are trying to do some testing to
get the load time when several users are on the system.
We would like the load time to be 5 seconds or less.
2. What Berkeley DB XML Version? Any optional configuration flags
specified? Are you running with any special patches? Please specify?
dbxml 2.4.13. No special patches.
3. What Berkeley DB Version? Any optional configuration flags
specified? Are you running with any special patches? Please Specify.
bdb 4.6.21. No special patches.
4. Processor name, speed and chipset?
Intel Xeon CPU 5150 2.66GHz
5. Operating System and Version?
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Relase 4 Update 6
6. Disk Drive Type and speed?
Don't have that information
7. File System Type? (such as EXT2, NTFS, Reiser)
EXT3
8. Physical Memory Available?
4GB
9. Are you using Replication (HA) with Berkeley DB XML? If so, please
describe the network you are using, and the number of Replica’s.
No
10. Are you using a Remote Filesystem (NFS) ? If so, for which
Berkeley DB XML/DB files?
No
11. What type of mutexes do you have configured? Did you specify
–with-mutex=? Specify what you find inn your config.log, search
for db_cv_mutex?
None. Did not specify -with-mutex during bdb compilation
12. Which API are you using (C++, Java, Perl, PHP, Python, other) ?
Which compiler and version?
Java 1.5
13. If you are using an Application Server or Web Server, please
provide the name and version?
Oracle Appication Server 10.1.3.4.0
14. Please provide your exact Environment Configuration Flags (include
anything specified in you DB_CONFIG file)
Default.
15. Please provide your Container Configuration Flags?
final EnvironmentConfig envConf = new EnvironmentConfig();
envConf.setAllowCreate(true); // If the environment does not
// exist, create it.
envConf.setInitializeCache(true); // Turn on the shared memory
// region.
envConf.setInitializeLocking(true); // Turn on the locking subsystem.
envConf.setInitializeLogging(true); // Turn on the logging subsystem.
envConf.setTransactional(true); // Turn on the transactional
// subsystem.
envConf.setLockDetectMode(LockDetectMode.MINWRITE);
envConf.setThreaded(true);
envConf.setErrorStream(System.err);
envConf.setCacheSize(1024*1024*64);
envConf.setMaxLockers(2000);
envConf.setMaxLocks(2000);
envConf.setMaxLockObjects(2000);
envConf.setTxnMaxActive(200);
envConf.setTxnWriteNoSync(true);
envConf.setMaxMutexes(40000);
16. How many XML Containers do you have? For each one please specify:
One.
1. The Container Configuration Flags
          XmlContainerConfig xmlContainerConfig = new XmlContainerConfig();
          xmlContainerConfig.setTransactional(true);
xmlContainerConfig.setIndexNodes(true);
xmlContainerConfig.setReadUncommitted(true);
2. How many documents?
Everytime the user logs in, the current xml document is loaded from
a oracle database table and put it in the Berkeley XML DB.
The documents get deleted from XML DB when the Oracle application
server container is stopped.
The number of documents should start with zero initially and it
will grow with every login.
3. What type (node or wholedoc)?
Node
4. Please indicate the minimum, maximum and average size of
documents?
The minimum is about 2MB and the maximum could 20MB. The average
mostly about 5MB.
5. Are you using document data? If so please describe how?
We are using document data only to save changes made
to the application data in a web application. The final save goes
to the relational database. Berkeley XML DB is just used to store
temporary data since going to the relational database for each change
will cause severe performance issues.
17. Please describe the shape of one of your typical documents? Please
do this by sending us a skeleton XML document.
Due to the sensitive nature of the data, I can provide XML schema instead.
18. What is the rate of document insertion/update required or
expected? Are you doing partial node updates (via XmlModify) or
replacing the document?
The document is inserted during user login. Any change made to the application
data grid or other data components gets saved in Berkeley DB. We also have
an automatic save every two minutes. The final save from the application
gets saved in a relational database.
19. What is the query rate required/expected?
Users will not be entering data rapidly. There will be lot of think time
before the users enter/modify data in the web application. This is a pilot
project but when we go live with this application, we will expect 25 users
at the same time.
20. XQuery -- supply some sample queries
1. Please provide the Query Plan
2. Are you using DBXML_INDEX_NODES?
Yes.
3. Display the indices you have defined for the specific query.
     XmlIndexSpecification spec = container.getIndexSpecification();
     // ids
     spec.addIndex("", "id", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     spec.addIndex("", "idref", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // index to cover AttributeValue/Description
     spec.addIndex("", "Description", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_EDGE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ELEMENT | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_SUBSTRING, XmlValue.STRING);
     // cover AttributeValue/@value
     spec.addIndex("", "value", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_EDGE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // item attribute values
     spec.addIndex("", "type", XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_EDGE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // default index
     spec.addDefaultIndex(XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ELEMENT | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     spec.addDefaultIndex(XmlIndexSpecification.PATH_NODE | XmlIndexSpecification.NODE_ATTRIBUTE | XmlIndexSpecification.KEY_EQUALITY, XmlValue.STRING);
     // save the spec to the container
     XmlUpdateContext uc = xmlManager.createUpdateContext();
     container.setIndexSpecification(spec, uc);
4. If this is a large query, please consider sending a smaller
query (and query plan) that demonstrates the problem.
21. Are you running with Transactions? If so please provide any
transactions flags you specify with any API calls.
Yes. READ_UNCOMMITED in some and READ_COMMITTED in other transactions.
22. If your application is transactional, are your log files stored on
the same disk as your containers/databases?
Yes.
23. Do you use AUTO_COMMIT?
     No.
24. Please list any non-transactional operations performed?
No.
25. How many threads of control are running? How many threads in read
only mode? How many threads are updating?
We use Berkeley XML DB within the context of a struts web application.
Each user logged into the web application will be running a bdb transactoin
within the context of a struts action thread.
26. Please include a paragraph describing the performance measurements
you have made. Please specifically list any Berkeley DB operations
where the performance is currently insufficient.
We are clocking 10-12 seconds of loading a document from dbd when
five users are on the system.
getContainer().getDocument(documentName);
27. What performance level do you hope to achieve?
We would like to get less than 5 seconds when 25 users are on the system.
28. Please send us the output of the following db_stat utility commands
after your application has been running under "normal" load for some
period of time:
% db_stat -h database environment -c
% db_stat -h database environment -l
% db_stat -h database environment -m
% db_stat -h database environment -r
% db_stat -h database environment -t
(These commands require the db_stat utility access a shared database
environment. If your application has a private environment, please
remove the DB_PRIVATE flag used when the environment is created, so
you can obtain these measurements. If removing the DB_PRIVATE flag
is not possible, let us know and we can discuss alternatives with
you.)
If your application has periods of "good" and "bad" performance,
please run the above list of commands several times, during both
good and bad periods, and additionally specify the -Z flags (so
the output of each command isn't cumulative).
When possible, please run basic system performance reporting tools
during the time you are measuring the application's performance.
For example, on UNIX systems, the vmstat and iostat utilities are
good choices.
Will give this information soon.
29. Are there any other significant applications running on this
system? Are you using Berkeley DB outside of Berkeley DB XML?
Please describe the application?
No to the first two questions.
The web application is an online review of test questions. The users
login and then review the items one by one. The relational database
holds the data in xml. During application load, the application
retrieves the xml and then saves it to bdb. While the user
is making changes to the data in the application, it writes those
changes to bdb. Finally when the user hits the SAVE button, the data
gets saved to the relational database. We also have an automatic save
every two minues, which saves bdb xml data and saves it to relational
database.
Thanks,
Madhav

Could it be that you simply do not have set up indexes to support your query? If so, you could do some basic testing using the dbxml shell:
milu@colinux:~/xpg > dbxml -h ~/dbenv
Joined existing environment
dbxml> setverbose 7 2
dbxml> open tv.dbxml
dbxml> listIndexes
dbxml> query     { collection()[//@date-tip]/*[@chID = ('ard','zdf')] (: example :) }
dbxml> queryplan { collection()[//@date-tip]/*[@chID = ('ard','zdf')] (: example :) }Verbosity will make the engine display some (rather cryptic) information on index usage. I can't remember where the output is explained; my feeling is that "V(...)" means the index is being used (which is good), but that observation may not be accurate. Note that some details in the setVerbose command could differ, as I'm using 2.4.16 while you're using 2.4.13.
Also, take a look at the query plan. You can post it here and some people will be able to diagnose it.

Need Help existing Crystal 8.5 to Ver.11 Install and SmartViewerActiveX.asp

How to get my reports working, required Install onto Server? Version Changes to Code?
Like other developers I am trying to reconfigure an existing solution / application that uses Crystal Reports 8.5 & RDC to call and display reports now moving to Crystal Reports XI =Ver.11.   Here is an almost identical issue that I have used for the basis of my question.
Link: [ CRViewer - Crystal 8.5 VS. Crystal 11|http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1505100&page=6|From www.tek-tips.com]
Just like the linked site's questions for the reports, our ActiveX viewer is called from within the ASP code SmartViewerActiveX.asp from Ver 8.5, we now have Crystal Reports XI = Ver.11 Developer.
However I am not sure that the other site was clear with the procedure for deployment and setup and that's why I am seeking help with the Crystal Reports we have in our projects.
Do I install Crystal Reports XI Developer onto the Server to get the VIEWER?
What configuration is required so that the NEW Ver. 11 viewer works with 8.5?
What code changes are required to use a new Activex Viewer object?
I have legacy Crystal Reports solution using 8.5 and moving to Crystal Ver. 11. Need help with clear requirements for what is required and how to install the required components to the WEB SERVER / IIS Server. Using "Unmanaged" Reports with Crystal Dev. Edition Ver. 8.5 to Ver. 11. Currently 8.5 is not working I suspect due to the viewer not being installed to the server.
CODE LINE from my SmartViewerActiveX.asp in my IIS server.....
"/viewer9/activeXViewer/activexviewer.cab#Version=9,2,0,442"
I have not found a virtual folder reference to a folder that contains, /viewer9/activeXViewer/activexviewer.cab on the IIS server. Keep in mind this is a NEW server with many of the application solutions copied to it without complete migration steps and possibly missing installation steps such as Crystal Reports Developer CD Ver.11.
Below are the steps I had found at the LINK above, however I need validation if this is the correct steps and clarification of the steps. This will eventually be going onto a PRODUCTION server and I need to minimize the possibility of killing other apps and potentially the server. (Windows 2003 Server, with Mainly VISTA and Win 7 clients via IE. 8 to present version.)
From: (http://www.tek-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=1505100&page=6)
NEED MORE DETAILS
1. Install CR11 developer to server
2. Setup Virtual Path within IIS for ActiveX component
   C:\program files\common........\Busines objects\3.0\CrystalReportsViewers11\activexcontrols
3. Check registry to get classid for activex control
hkey_classes_root
Crystalreports.activexreportviewer
CLSID
CurVer
4. Change code to use new activex control page: Smartvieweractivex.asp
5. migrate reports from Crystal Reports 8.5 to 11
6. run application and open report using CR11 viewer
Help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Thanks for ALL your feedback!
Still not there yet with a solution or option from the last reply....
I tried to be as brief as possible, however it appears that there are MANY issues surrounding Crystal Reports in General let alone the versions and applications that had been developed and very little straight forward information on how to migrate/move and use existing applications on NEW servers (NOTE: Old CR 8.5 is running in a newer environment as it had been developed at the Company that had previously owned us.).
I am trying to get the application that is OLD re-deployed into a new company, with old data, old reports, just to make the existing solution work.   Crystal Reports Ver. 11 was brought into the mix when a copy of Crystal 8.5 could not be purchased by our new company. Right after purchase of Ver.11, I was able to get the original 8.5 DEV CD and License from our old company.
Q: 1) "/viewer9/activeXViewer/activexviewer.cab#Version=9,2,0,442"
A: This is what is on the server that the Crystal Reports 8.5 solution is running on in the server environment that it currently is running and working in. PROBLEM.. The Our Comapny is no longer part of the other Company... They have theirs running without issue with Crystal 8.5 Reports, and the command line listed above on their IIS server... This is what was given to me to migrate into our NEW Company environment.
Q: 2) CR 11 is rather undefined... There is CR XI Release 1 (11.0)
A: APPEARS that I have CR XI Release 1 (11.0) - HELP ABOUT SHOWS 11.0.0.1282
Q: How do you get the app on your server? Use the RDC merge modules and create a setup or an MSI.
Not sure what, "...Use the RDC merge modules and create a setup or an MSI..." involves??
Why Can't I just install this using the CR Dev. CD.? The Product was purchased with 2 Licenses.
I also have the OLD Crystal Reports Developer Ver. 8.5 CD that could be used to re-deploy the viewers.
Q: Did you realize that the RDC is retired in CR 11.5?... ETC..
A: Yes, again why cant the existing solution of Crystal Reports 8.5 RPT files be used on the IIS server being called via Crystal Reports 8.5 Viewers... I have access to the original 8.5 CD,.. Again not sure how to deploy the VIEWERS part to the server..
Trying to get the simplest solution to have the existing 8.5 Reports, running from the IIS Web Server using the ActiveX viewer and URL Calls...
ALL HELP IS WELCOME!

Need help to find photo's on my backup drive,since installing Mountain Lion cannot find where they are stored.The backups after ML install are greyed out except in Applications, MyFiles and Devices really welcome a hand with this please.

I need help to find my photo's please (2500) on my backup drive.Lost them after doing a clean install of Mountan Lion I have tried to find them but had no luck. I use Time Machine with a 1TB Western Digital usb drive. Thanking anyone in anticipation of a solution.

-Reece,
We only have 1 single domain, 1 domain forest, no subdomains, only alias. I had replied to the other post as well. But I am happy to paste it here in case anyone want to read it.
So, after a few months of testing, capture and sending logs back and forth to Apple Engineers, we found out there is a setting in AD, under User Account that prevent us to log into AD from Mountain Lion. If you would go to your AD server, open up a user account properties, then go to Account tab, the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" option is checked. As soon as I uncheck that option, immediately I was able to log into AD on the Mac client. Apple engineers copied all my AD settings and setup a test environment on their end and match exact mine AD environment. They was able to reproduce this issue.
The bad part about this is... our environment required the "Do not require Kerberos preauthentication" is checked in AD, in order for our users to login into some of our Unix and Linux services. Which mean that it is impossible for us to remove that check mark because most, if not all of them some way or another require to login into applications that run on Unix and Linux. Apple is working to see if they can come up with a fix. Apparently, no one has report this issue except us. I believe most of you out there don't have that check mark checked in your environment... Anyone out there have any suggestion to by pass or have a work around for this?

Need help with Outlook 2013 connecting to Exchange server(2010)

Hi
I need help with Outlook 2013 and with my exchange server(2010) email account
After setting up account initially emails come in and than after an hour or two stop. My OWA is working fine with no issues. I have even created a forward rule in OWA to my GMAIL account whch works fine
However Outlook 2013 is not syncing messages, have difficulty in sending emails sometimes as it takes too long. In fact the connection also is intermittent. Even if the task bar shows connected to exchange, it seems that is not the case since new emails
and any emails I compose dont work. I have trouble shot the issue with my ISP and email service provide, but they havent resolved the issue I have also done a TraceRoute and that shows no drops or problems to he exchange server.
Can someone please help me resolve this matter so I can continue to use Outlook 2013( running Windows 8.1) in both my computers which have the identical problem
Look forward to a solution soon
Thanks

Hi Angela
Thanks for your message
To answer your questions, please note the following
a) My account is set up in Cache Mode( not online mode)
b) I am the only other user on the account
c) When the connection to the exchange server is broken, I see upon clicking connection tab that there is no information in the box, and when I press reconnect it starts showing "connecting"
d) When the connection to the server is there, it shows connection as "established"
e) Sorry I dont understand th meaning of CAS array in your environment? Can you pls explain
Since yday I have been using Outlook 2010 on desktop and Outlook 2013 on my laptop using Exchange 2013 account. So far all emails are syncing, and I can send emails from both computers. However, I am concerned that the connection can break-off anytime,
as it has done that in the past on both outlook versions. The max time it has worked without any problem is 48 hrs and than after that the same issue of not connection, not syncing and unable to send emails happens
My ISP has checked and there is no network connectivity issues. My email service provider has trouble shot the issue many times, but to no positive results. I have also changed the profile a few times, but the intermittent connectivity problem hasn't
been resolved.
Can you identify the possible causes and more importantly a working permanent solution please
Thanks

Need Help with Migration...Please

Hello,
I need help! I just bought a new MacBook Pro. In house, I have a two year old iMac running Mavericks (all updated) and an iPhone and iPad (both running the most current OS). I also have the iMac connected to a Time Capsule. Here are my questions:
1. As I am not replacing the iMac, but rather adding a MacBook Pro to the mix, should I migrate the software, settings, files, etc. from the iMac to the MacBook? Is there an issue running computers which are clones in the same environment? Is it a bad idea to migrate?
2. Assuming # 1 is okay to migrate, what is the best way? Is it best directly from the iMac or from the Time Capsule? I do have a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter on hand.
3. Is there a link that would help me navigate the migration?
4. How long should the migration in #2 take?
5. Will I need to change any settings on the iMac, iPhone, or iPad afterwards?
6. Will my contacts and calendar sync with iCloud automatically, or do I have to change a setting on the MacBook to make that happen?
7. Also, as I'm leaving town tomorrow and want to take the MacBook Pro with me and I'm unsure I've the time to Migrate and tweak, can I jus turn on the MacBook (still not turned on), use it as it is, and then migrate when I get back home?
Any help would greatly be appreciated. Thank you!

Need help for importing oracle 10G dump into 9i database

hi, Someone help me to import oracle 10G dump into 9i database. I'm studying oracle . Im using oracle 10G developer suite(downloaded from oracle) and oracle 9i database. I saw some threads tat we can't import the higher version dumps into lower version database. But i'm badly need help for importing the dump...
or
someone please tell me the site to download oracle 9i Developer suite as i can't find it in oracle site...

I didnt testet it to import a dump out of a 10g instance into a 9i instance if this export has been done using a 10g environment.
But it is possible to perform an export with a 9i environment against a 10g instance.
I am just testing this with a 9.2.0.8 environment against a 10.2.0.4.0 instance and is working so far.
The system raises an EXP-00008 / ORA-37002 error after exporting the data segments (exporting post-schema procedural objects and actions).
I am not sure if it is possible to perform an import to a 9i instance with this dump but maybe worth to give it a try.
It should potentially be possible to export at least 9i compatible objects/segments with this approach.
However, I have my doubts if this stunt is supported by oracle ...

Need help in shutdown primary for maintaince (new to oracle dba)

Hi,
BANNER
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.4.0 - Production
PL/SQL Release 9.2.0.4.0 - Production
CORE 9.2.0.3.0 Production
TNS for Linux: Version 9.2.0.4.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 9.2.0.4.0 - Production
actually we have primary database server and the physical standby server with protection mode is maxperformance and for maintaince we need to shutdown primary server so what are the steps i need to follow since my primary database is configured with DATAGAURD and i would like to follow the folllowing steps please advice me:
to shutdown standby server:
from primary server connecting to dgmgrl
dgmgrl>DISABLE SITE standby_site1;
then connecting to standby server
sql>alter database recover managed standby database cancel;
sql>shu immediate;
and finnaly connecting to primary server
sql>shu immediate
is it right since i am new to datagaurd concept need help.
Regards
Prakash

You can do so, but you would shutdown the whole standby environment. But normally standby is used to have no or only short downtime. So a switchover to the standby DB is performed (after this standby is now running as primary), maintenance is done on the primary and then at the end another switchover back from the 'new' primary to the 'old' primary.

Project Server 2013: I am using Project Server Permission Mode and need help with permission assignments?

Hi
Project Server 2013: I am using Project Server Permission Mode and need help with permission assignments?
How can I change Permissions for the individual users to see specific projects or all projects in project center and to see specific quick launch items?
For Example: if i have 4 users, A, B, C and D. what i want is:
User A can see everything and act as a project manager or Admin.
User B can view all projects in project centre but can change the schedule or resource assignment etc.
User C can only act as approver of projects and can view all projects in project centre.
User D can only view specific projects for which permissions are given.
can i have some expert help in sorting and understanding permission modes... as i was playing with project server mode permissions and can't figure out how to apply the above scenario to set of my user.
Thanks in Advance
Cheers

Hi Ajay,
Please refer to this link for detailed explanations about PS2013 security model.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197638(v=office.15).aspx
Actually, it will take a couple of days to explain in detail the security model that is a fundamental and tricky aspect of every PS implementation. But basically, you NEVER set permissions for a single user. You have groups in which your insert users. Groups
define "what users can do". Then you associate groups to a corresponding category. Categories define "what user can see". Thus the association of a group with a category will set "what the user can do on the objects he can see". Then, for more advanced security
level, you can use the RBS that will consist in "branches" in which you'll insert users. Based on those branches, you'll customize categories to fine-tune what user can see (for projects and resources) depending on the RBS branch and level.
I'd advice you to start "playing" in a test environment with the default categories/groups that might probably cover your need.
Concerning your 4 users:
user A : add him to the "administrator" group. Be careful that you're mentionning either project manager or administrator, which are 2 groups/categories with totally different permissions level.
user B : basically can see everything and change everything? it could be in the project manager group, assuming that there are no project visibility restrictions on the category via the RBS.
user C : waht do you mean by "approver"? Workflow approvals? Then it will be the portfolio manager group. Task update or timesheet approval? Then it is another long topic: please refer in the documentation to the "status manager" and "timesheet manager"
concepts. There are not related to the security model. In a few words, the status manager is the owner of the project plan, is defined for each task and approves tasks updates. The timesheet manager is an attribute defined for each resource in its parameters
and approves resource timesheet.
user D : you have to define which permission level must be given to this user. Basically it could be a team member that will see only projects he's in the project team. Note that team member cannot interact with the project plan in another way than submitting
timesheets and/or tasks updates which must be approved.
Once more, those are large and complex subjects that require a deep dive into your business model and tons of tests in a test environment.
Hope this helps.

Need help regarding the location of Exchange 2013 Logs for parsing

Hi, I am trying to create reports based on the logs that are created on my exchange server. I am using
exchange 2013. My problem is that I cannot handle every log, and instead want specific types of logs.
I need help finding the specific locations of the following types of logs (If they even exist), so that I can parse them and use them effectively:
Audit Logs (Mailbox logons, Mailbox permission changes, Mailbox property changes,
Exchange store changes)
Mail Report Logs (Mailbox size and growth, Mailbox storage growth, Enabled users, Expired and Soon-to-Expire Mailboxes)
Exchange Traffic Reports (Details on size and amount of messages sent and recieved, Internet traffic [to and from], Traffic between exchange users)
I understand this might sound like a huge undertaking, but any help that can be provided would be appreciated.
Again, I need information on the locations of these types of logs on the exchange server, so that I can parse them. Collecting them all and searching through them is not practical for my available resources.
Thanks,
Matt

Audit Logs (Mailbox logons, Mailbox permission
changes, Mailbox property changes, Exchange
store changes) ---- these are two type of logs, 1. mailbox audit logs and that is stored in each mailbox under dumpster
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff461930(v=exchg.150).aspx however you need to
enable
it for individual mailboxes... 2. admin audit log, this is stored into a system mailbox dumpster.... http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd335052(v=exchg.141).aspx
Mail Report Logs (Mailbox size and growth, Mailbox
storage growth, Enabled users, Expired and Soon-to-Expire Mailboxes) ---- there isn't any specific log for this, you would need to create some time of script to collect this every day for you and store it somewhere... This is a good start... http://www.stevieg.org/2011/06/exchange-environment-report/
Exchange Traffic Reports (Details on size and
amount of messages sent and recieved, Internet traffic [to and from], Traffic between exchange users) ----- This you can get from message tracking log... http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb124375(v=exchg.150).aspx

Need Help!!! Oracle8i Lite

Hi there,
I defined a connection against an oracle8i lite (4.0.1.x). This connection works fine - I can see the tables within the table-browser.
Try to create a new bc4j-package against this oracle8i lite with just 1 very small entity (table test with the column test_id). The business components package wizard "hangs" up when trying to load the keys at creating the entity object. This is the last action this wizard ever does:-(
I need help!!!
My environment is Win2k, Oracle8i Lite, Jdev 9.0.2.
Any ideas???

Hi guys,
I downloaded 8iLite on my laptop just last week and had similar problems trying to log in to SQL Plus 8.0
This is what worked:
Upon install, Oracle provides us with a starter database called polite.odb - but to use this, you must do the following.
1. Open the ODBC Data Source Adminstrator, click on Drivers tab to make sure that Oracle Lite 40 ODBC Driver is present.
2. Click on the User DSN tab, click on Add, select Oracle Lite 40 ODBC Driver, and type the following:
Data Source Name: POLITE
Description: (whatever)
Database Directory: (this should be your Oracle Home directory) for example: D:\orant\oldb40
Database: polite.odb
now you can log into SQL PLUS like so:
Username: SYSTEM
Password: (type anything here) for example: abc
Host String: ODBC:POLITE
for further info, look at: http://technet.oracle.com/products/8i_lite/
documentation -- user's guide -- before you begin -- Installing Oracle Lite -- using the starter database
Good Luck!

Need Help w/ Programming (Feeling Physically Weak...a little)

I have not been able to compile my program since there is no compile option that I can choose at this time...& that I have not been able to download the appropiate components yet, but based on my program, I need to know if the program I have will excecute perfectly. This is based on the Split.java program & I am trying to extract words from article.txt. If there is an error in my program what needs to be typed & where is it shown within the program. Also, any symbols such as <>, -, etc. should not be included when article.txt is being redirected as an output.txt. I'm completely stumped & do not know where to go from here!
