Parallel export/Import for exchange directory

Hi,
We have executed the homogeneous system copy(Win08/Ora 11) on ECC6 EHP4 and in order to speed up the process i have selected the parallel export/Import option on target system as export on source system is been executing by some other vendor.
During Import abap phase it's displaying as" waiting -- mins for packahe data in exhange directory" as i have provided the path during input phase of "communication parameters for Import" in Exchange directory as <export directory>/Data.
is this correct path and i have read some where that <TABART>.SQL will be generated if on source system the same parallel expot/import option has enabled.And i couldn't find *.SQL files on export directory.
Does it mean that guy who is executing on source system has not consider this option/not generated the SQl file with SMIGR_CREATE_DDL ?
NB: i am executing import with SAPINST
Regards,
Dheeraj

Dear Dheeraj,
Kindly check in the export directory path, whether <package>.SGN files been generating or not .
Also, we can check in exportmonitor.log.After export of individual pacakge, log says package transfered to network share directory.Even if it not merntions in log, parallel exp/imp not possible
If it generates, parallel import will happen;If not, it will not.
Its nothing to do with SQL files.

Multiple servers in parallel export/import question

Hello all,
We plan to use parallel export/import using distribution monitor, and want to use several servers in export and also in import.
The export_monitor.cmd.properties has FTP option ftphost, whic is the hostname of the import server, which looks like it will only use 1 application server (AS) from the source system and 1 in the AS in the target system -
- is this true or can we use more AS in both export and import?
- in the export, how to specify the AS to use?
- in the export, how to specify more than 1 AS?
- in the imprt, how to specify more than 1 AS ?
Thanks,
Terry

You can use the Distribution Monitor for that purpose. Check note 855772 - Distribution Monitor

ST02 Export / Import buffer and directory entries

What would cause the number of (Export / Import) directory entries to steadily increase in ST02 until there were none left. I currently have the directory size set to 30,000 and over the course of about 7 days they are all used up and then I have extensive swaps. The swaps are at 1,060,431 after about one month.

lots of data input through interfaces for example...if the values are too small you have to increase them and checek again until the value is sufficient...

Parallel export/import

For reasons that I won't go into, I need to export ALL data when employing the mxl import & export for the nightly defrag. I am using parallel export which in theory should allow the file to be larger than 2 gig assuming that the output is spread over 4 files. Things were fine until this week. It looks like essbase on Solaris doesn't split the output as evenly as I had hoped. Here are the output files.
-rw-r--r-- 1 aphynspr hynspr 246K Nov 23 03:17 3.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 aphynspr hynspr 283K Nov 23 03:17 4.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 aphynspr hynspr 304K Nov 23 03:17 2.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 aphynspr hynspr 2.0G Nov 23 03:50 1.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 aphynspr hynspr 15M Nov 23 03:50 1_1.txt
All of the data is in the first file.
Does anyone know how essbase slices the data? Other than exporting level zero or adding a preprocessor to determine the number of files, does anyone have a suggestion so that I can import the appropriate files?
Thanks,
Dave

Glenn you nailed it! The anchor dimension seems to control how the data is allocated to the threads. This database was organized as a modified hour glass with the non-aggregating sparse dimensions last. The anchor dimension has a dozen members but 99
% of the data is in one member. Coincidentally the one of the output files contained 99% of the data. When we made the largest sparse dimension the anchor, data was allocated to the threaded output files evenly. Good call.
Gary, you’ve convinced me to look at the dataexport anyway. Back in the summer ran a test extract from essbase. I tested a report script, dataexport as a text file and dataexport to oracle 11i. The times were 7 seconds, 1 minute and 40 minutes respectively. I’ve never used the binary format with dataexport but I’m guessing that I can find a use for it.
Thanks for all of the suggestions

Export-Import for LSMW

HI, Please let me know how to export the project-subproject-object from one devlopment server to qulity server, IN qulity server we have to import the same objects. please let me know the procedure
Regards
Pinal

Dear All,
I have got few LSMWs created in my Dev System and also in SND systems.
Earlier I used the Export-Import mechanism for moving them to Q & P.
However I am facing issues now.
When I try to export the LSMW it opens me windows dialog box with C: drive but instead of showing me Save button,it shows me open button for click.
When I press that it does not do anything.If I select some other location and click this open button LSMW gets exported in file with the message mapping and rules exported successfully..
Now when I try to import the LSMW in another server, it does not import it & gives me error 'No importable information can be found in the file.'
Am I missing anything here ?
I have already done import export successfully couple of times in the past but why I am getting this error ?
Also, why cant I see Save button while exporting to hard drive and why it does not get exported to C: drive which appears default ?
Request you to suggest please.
Best Regards,

Best practice metadata export/import for WebCenter portal

Hi
I'm using JDeveloper to build the WebCenter portal. When I let's say register a portlet producer along with my portal, the information about it is stored in the metadata. In case I want to move my portal from the integrated WLS which JDeveloper provides to another WebLogic server with WebCenter installation - steps which I need to do are:
1) Export the metadata from JDeveloper
2) Import metadata to my target Weblogic server
3) deploy the application
Am I missing something?
To export/import metadata from JDeveloper to another Weblogic (equipped with WebCenter) server I should use the WLST script, right?
Thanks

Command Line Export/Import for ApEx

Hi There,
I was wondering if there is an ApEx Utility that allows the Export and Import of applications/pages/images/style sheets etc from the command line on a Linux box.
I am using Oracle Application Express v3.0.1
Thanks.
Tony.

Tony,
Another post in the past has discussed about this already.
Exporting/Importing a *Bunch* of Applications
John Scott wrote a blog post about this as well at [http://jes.blogs.shellprompt.net/2006/12/12/backing-up-your-applications/|http://jes.blogs.shellprompt.net/2006/12/12/backing-up-your-applications/]
In short, you can use APEX utility - APEXExport to export and standard SQL to import.

Custom directories for export/import for Integration Builder

Hi,
XI uses default directories for exporting and importing Integration Builder objects, and there is no option to change the directory or to pick up objects from another directory.
Does anybody know of any way we can change the default directory that XI uses? Maybe some system setting hidden somewhere deep?
Thanks and Regards
Manish

Hi Manish,
when there's no way there's always an <b>XI way</b>:)
you can help your basis team using XI
set you file adapter to monitor export directory
and try sending your xi export files to a different server/location
you can have a look how Felix did similar scenario:
/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/07/15/copy-a-file-with-same-filename-using-xi
isn't this a good way ?

SAP Export/Import via R3load

Hello,
SAP recommended a sorted export/import for oracle databases. A unsorted export/import ist very very quicker than a sorted export/import.
very quicker means sorted = eg. 56 hours and unsorted eg. 12 hours.
Is there any problems if i take the unsorted export?
regards,
stefan

Hello Stefan,
>> SAP recommended a sorted export/import for oracle databases
That fact relies on database internal facts like clustering factor of indexes to the table. You will benefit of a sorted export in cases of primary indexes access and so on... but this topic is much bigger than your question.
>> very quicker means sorted = eg. 56 hours and unsorted eg. 12 hours.
Where did you get this values from? You can split big tables or packages ... or define parallel access paths and so on... and it depends on your database configuration (sort areas, PGA, etc..)
I have done some migrations/exports with distmon... and optimized it manually ... so i got from round about 72 hours (normal export with some split packages) to only 12 hours. I have done only sorted exports.
>> Is there any problems if i take the unsorted export?
Some tables must be exported sorted (for example cluster tables) - have a look at sapnote #954268 ... but generally there are no "problems".
If you have a BW system... some rules are changing...
@ Markus:
>> You mean the usage of "R3load -loadprocedure fast"? Or how do you do the "unsorted unload"?
The option "loadprocedure fast" has nothing to do with the unload process. It speeds up the import (insert) by bypassing the buffer cache. Refer to sapnote #1045847 and the following link:

Checklist for Exchange Certificate issues

Checklist for Exchange Certificate issues
1.
Why certificate is important for Exchange and What are Certificates used for
Exchange is now using certificates for more than just web, POP3, or IMAP. In addition to
securing web services, it has also incorporated Transport Layer Security (TLS) for session based authentication and encryption.
Certificates are used for several things on Exchange Server. Most customers also use certificates
on more than one Exchange server. In general, the fewer certificates you have, the easier certificate management becomes.
IIS (OWA, ECP, EWS, EAS, OA, Autodiscover, OAB, UM)
POP/IMAP
SMTP
2.
Common symptoms for
certificate issue
Here we can see three different types of the certificate warning, mainly from the Outlook
side.
a.
Certificate mismatch issue
b.
Certificate trust issue
c.
Certificate expiration issue
3.
Checklists
In this section, checklists will be provided according to the three different scenarios:
Certificate Mismatch Issue
[Analysis]:
This issue mainly occurs because the URL of the web services Outlook tries
to connect does not match the host name in the certificate.
[Checklist]:
Firstly make sure how many host name in your certificate the certificate. Run “Get-ExchangeCertificate | select certificatedomain”.
Secondly, check the web services URLs which Outlook are trying to connect to. Run “Test Email AutoConfiguration”
In this scenario, you need to check the host name for the following services:
Autodiscover
EWS
OAB
ECP
UM
If any of the urls above does not match the one in the certificate, refer to the following article to change
it via EMS:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940726
1.
Do not forget to restart the IIS service after applying the changes above.
2. Make sure a valid certificate is enabled on the IIS service.
Certificate Trust Issue
[Analysis]:
For the self-signed and PKI-based (Enterprise)
certificates, they are not automatically trusted by the client computer or mobile device, you must make sure that you import the certificate into the trusted root certificate store on client computers and devices. On the other hand, Third-party or commercial
certificates do not have this problem. Most commercial CA certificates are already trusted because the certificate already resides in the trusted root certificate store. Because the issuer is trusted, the certificate is also trusted. Using third-party certificates
greatly simplifies deployment.
[Checklist]:
If it’s an Enterprise CA certificate, manually install the root certificate to the “Trusted Root Certification Authorities” folder:
If it is a 3<sup>rd</sup>-party certificate, first remove and reinstall the certificate. Check whether the Windows Certificate Store on the local
client is corrupted. If it still does not work, please contact the third-party CA support to verify the certificate.
Certificate Expiration Issue
[Checklist]:
When a certificate is about to expired, we just need to renew it by referring the following article:
Renew an Exchange Certificate
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee332322(v=exchg.141).aspx
To avoid any conflictions, it’s recommended to remove the expired certificate from the certificate store.
[How to set a reminder to alert the administrator when a certificate is about to expired]:
It’s easy to fix the certificate expire issue. But it should be more important to set a reminder before the
certificate expiration. Or there can be a large user impacts.
Generally, the Event ID “^(24|25)$” will appear in Application log when a certificate is about to expire.
If it’s not quite visible, we can refer to the following solution:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/nexthop/archive/2011/11/18/certificate-expiration-alerting.aspx
OWA certificate revoked issue
[Analysis]:
IE
includes support for server certificate revocation which verifies that an issuing
CA has not revoked a server certificate. This feature checks for CryptoAPI revocation when certificate extensions
are present. If the URL for the revocation information is unresponsive, IE cancels the connection.
[Solution or workaround]:
1. Contact CA provider and check whether the questioned certificate is in the Revoked List.
2. If not, check whether the certificate has a private key.
3. Remove the old certificate and import the new one.
Workaround:
IE Internet Options -> Advanced tab -> Clear the "Check for server certificate revocation"
checkbox.
4.

(Reported previous post with link to SIS package to moderator)
This is not the correct SIS package for the N73. The package shown is for S60 3.2 devices, but the N73 is not S60 3.2, I believe it is S60 3.0.
Most features may work with this SIS, but if you experience strange problems, try using the S60 3.0 version.
But there are no significant difference between 2.5.3 and 2.5.5 with regard to attachments. The only changes were with localization (languages).
At this point, try 2.7.0 which is out now:
http://businesssoftware.nokia.com/mail_for_exchange_downloads.php
Make sure to pick the right phone on the drop down list. It does matter! There are 4 different packages. This list makes sure you get the right one.
I have seen some issues with attachments not completing that seem to be carrier dependent. You can test this my using Wifi (if possible).

Homogeneous system copy using export/import on WIn/Ora

Dear experts,
i need to know the homogeneous system copy procedure using export/import method for following scenario as we are in the process of Data center migration of SAP systemsfrom location to another location.
Source system:
ECC6/BI7/APO(ABAP stack)
OS:WIndows 2003
D:B:Oracle 10g
Target System: New hardware installed on Virtual environment(VMware)
No change of SID
ECC6/BI//APO
OS:WINDOWS2008
D:B: Oracle 11g
It would be great if anyone can share the documentu2019s/links (Not SAP homogeneous system copy guide) which you have prepared for the homog. system copy using export/import on Windows/oracle as i have done the system copy using backup/restore for ABAP stack and export/import for Java stack so far.
Therefore i am not sure about this procedure/prerequisites/checklist needs to prepare as i have gone through the SAP guide but it is not step by step document.
Cheers

There are two approacahes for your project
1) First wether to use Oracle11g on target database
2) Continue with Database Oracle 10.2 on traget database
If you want to use Oracle11.2 on your target database you have to search the installers which are supported for 11.2 database. If the installers are available then only you can install your target database using Oracle11.2.Other wise t use Oracle10.2.0.4 is supported on Win2008r2. You can use this version of Oracle database to build ur target database.It works fine . Absolutely no problem.
Later on you can upgrade the Oracle10.2 to 11.2 Onwards.
If installers are avialble you can use Oracle11.2 also. There is absolutely no problem.
As per my knowledge installers are available and supported with Oracle11.2.Also check the PAM before arriving on any deciscion.

Import for runtime sharing issue - CS5.5 AS2.0

I would like to use export/import for runtime sharing option so I can reuse assets form one swf library in another timeline.
I found this tutorial that explains how to use it, there is also a download link to see the example working:
http://www.flashkit.com/tutorials/Tips_And_Techniques/How_to_u-FreshLau-1000/
I do I think exactly the same as it is there, but it doesn't work. Strange thing is that if you open main.swf from downloaded project, it works, but if you open the main.fla and publish it wothout any changes even, it will stop working.
I have also discovered this problem with runtime sharing option. I have set up my movie clip runtime sharing option from library assets properties to import, as it showen in the picture below...
but after I click "Ok" and wait apropriate time to proces it, and when I reopen the properties panel of that movie clip I noticed that it has changed "Import for runtime sharing" to "Export for runtime sharing"it self: In addition it also adds "Export for Action Script" which I definatelly haven't choose before.
Any ideas anyone?
I gues this is some sort of a problem of flash newer Publish Settings incompatiobility with Flash MX 2004, in which this tutorial was made. although when you open it, you can see it is already stage is set up as AS2.0 and flash player 7. But I have also noticed, that once you open main.fla it is tagged with * symbol as it has not been saved. Anyway, the same occures when I build it from scratch in CS5.5 AS2.0.
I do not want to do it in AS3.0 because it apparantelly doesn't support attachMovie command.

Hi Szymon,
Our flash team and a few other flash clients have experienced this issue.
It is detailed here in this thread:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/4000804
There is no fix however and Adobe have not commented on the issue (via twitter @adobe_care or on the forum). I contacted adobe support, paid for a support contract, reported the issue and pointed them to the thread but they wanted a video of it after many frustrating conversations (Did I mention that adobe support is -horrible-). Our flash team never generate a movie though regrettably, they still experience it/deal with it. It's frustrating to say the least but I am determined to get Adobe to say something about it.
Adobe make good products but getting support from them is like getting blood out of a stone. I wonder how many people experience the issue but haven't reported it?

Critical event Ids for exchange 2010

I need a list if critical event ids for exchange 2010 which should be monitored regularly. So that a script can be scheduled to report if in case any of these event ids are encountered. I have complied a list below and request you guys to add on this list.
Event ID Message

Hi Striker11,
Thank you for your question.
I agree with Martin. We should find a tool to monitor those errors or warning. Because there are many Event IDs in Exchange 2010. If those errors or warnings are both important for Exchange maintenance. If Exchange 2010 update to Exchange 2013, we will still
use tool to monitor it and not modify the script.
We could download SCOM by the following link:

Outlook Exchange Directory Connection - Slow Response

Hi All
We are in process of migrating from Exchange 2007 to 2013. Clients are Outlook 2013.
Users who are migrated to 2013 are experiencing outlook timeouts regularly throughout day (we do not run in cache mode).
I am noticing that Outlook Connection is reporting slow response times for Exchange Directory connection (screen shot shown below) i.e. 1000ms or above. All other connections are fine.
When outlook times out - I notice that connection to Exchange Directory is the one that times out also.
I suspect a GC / DC issue - perhaps Exchange is querying GCs outside of site? and that's causing timeout? WAN connections between sites are slow (1.5Mb or below).
But my AD team tells me there is nothing wrong with infrastructure. :-)
Could someone assist me in identifying the cause?
Thanks in advance
Anthony

Hi Anthony,
Please use OWA to check whether the migration completed successfully.
I noticed that you are not under the Exchange Cached mode, please try to turn it to Exchange Cached mode to have a test.
Please try to run Outlook under safe mode to avoid some AVs and add-ins.
I also found an related blog, collect some information for your reference:
These default Keep-Alive intervals are NOTs home networking devices and/or aggressive network devices on the Internet. Some of those devices are dropping TCP connections after as little as 5 minutes (300 seconds)
of inactivity. When one or both of the two default connections are dropped, the connection to the Exchange server is essentially broken and not useable.
To address this issue, we are recommending setting a registry key on the Exchange CAS to change the default Keep-Alive from 15 minutes (900 seconds) to 2 minutes (120 seconds):HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows

Regarding Distribution Monitor for export/import

Hi,
We are planning to migrate the 1.2TB of database from Oracle 10.2g to MaxDB7.7 . We are currently testing the database migration on test system for 1.2TB of data. First we tried with just simple export/import i.e. without distribution monitor we were able to export the database in 16hrs but import was running for more than 88hrs so we aborted the import process. And later we found that we can use distribution monitor and distribute the export/import load on multiple systems so that import will get complete within resonable time. We used 2 application server for export /import but export completed within 14hrs but here again import was running more than 80hrs so we aborted the import process. We also done table splitting for big tables but no luck. And 8 parallel process was running on each servers i.e. one CI and 2 App servers. We followed the document DistributionMonitorUserGuide from SAP. I observerd that on central system CPU and Memory was utilizing above 94%. But on 2 application server which we added on that servers the CPU and Memory utilization was very low i.e. 10%. Please find the system configuration as below,
Central Instance - 8CPU (550Mhz) 32GB RAM
App Server1 - 8CPU (550Mhz) 16GB RAM
App Server2 - 8CPU (550Mhz) 16GB RAM
And also when i used top unix command on APP servers i was able to see only one R3load process to be in run state and all other 7 R3load process was in sleep state. But on central instance all 8 R3load process was in run state. I think as on APP servers all the 8 R3load process was not running add a time that could be the reason for very slow import.
Please can someone let me know how to improve the import time. And also if someone has done the database migration from Oracle 10.2g to MaxDB if they can tell how they had done the database migration will be helpful. And also if any specific document availble for database migration from Oracle to MaxDB will be helpful.
Thanks,
Narendra

R3load connects directly to the database and loads the data. The quesiton is here: how is your database configured (in sense of caches and memory)?
> And also if someone has done the database migration from Oracle 10.2g to MaxDB if they can tell how they had done the database migration will be helpful. And also if any specific document availble for database migration from Oracle to MaxDB will be helpful.
There are no such documents available since the process of migration to another database is called "heterogeneous system copy". This process requires a certified migration consultant ot be on-site to do/assist the migraiton. Those consultants are trained specially for certain databases and know tips and tricks how to improve the migration time.

For MaxDB there's a special service available, see
