Payload and Trace Search in SXMB_MONI

All,
We are on PI 7.11. As I understand the only way to have payload search capability in PI in production environment is through TREX. So I was thinking of writing a custom ABAP program for the same.
Another thing is when we use multiple operations in one service interface, the only way to find in moni which operation actually got executed is to go through the trace in sxmb_moni.  So how about a custom ABAP program to read the trace.
Your Thoughts.
Thanks.

Hi,
That link is not much useful to me (I mean all the settings for fine in sxmb_adm..that i checked already)
for more info: I am using SOAP adapter as a sender and receiver is R3
Thanks
Raja

  • Payload Content Based Search in PI

    Hello Experts,
    We are trying to implement Payload contenet based search functionality in our PI enviroemnt.
    One of the approch I can across is to have the message index using TREX index engine. This would allow us to do the message content based search from RWB itself.
    Can somebody give me a idea of how much does it take to have lience and configuration set up of TREX engine? Also, any link to a "How to guide" or any blog will be greatly appreciated.
    The other approch I could find out on SDN was to have a ABAP report to achieve the same.But, it is only recomended for a system where messages flowing through the system are very low.
    I would really appreciate If anybody can help me with more information or available documentation.

  • NWA - Logs and Traces Not available

    Hello All,
    I am unable to view the logs and Traces , When I am accessing it through NWA
    for example http:
    <server>:<port>\nwa ...... In Monitoring --> Logs and Traces --> when I select Default Trace , Its asks me for the setting up the data source , We select the data source and click on Apply . But the view still persists. On the server level, We can see the trace files. But on the NWA I am unable to.
    Can share some thoughts on this as for the reason and the resolution for the same . So that I can view the traces in NWA.
    Regards,
    Ronniee.

    Dear Ronniee
    It will come like that way. If you do not want to show then collapse the tray (Right side Rectange box)
    Once you open the Default Trance > Click on "Open Search" and here you can search with any options.
    OR you can directly access with URL /irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.runtime.admin.logviewer.default it will only work if you login and then change the url as metioned above. You can search with FIRST Search option, it will check the all the available logs. You can metion "last day(s)" for searching latest result log.
    Hope it will helps

  • Payload and pipeline

    hi all
    pls define the words payload and pipeline
    Thanks.

    Hey Sri,
    The place where you see your data in SXMB_MONI is called as payload.
    Pipeline: As soon as you test any data in xi it goes through xi-pipeline. Below are the pipeline steps in sequence.
    <b>Receiver Identification</b>
    Determine which system(s) should participate in an exchange with incoming message.
    <b>Interface Determination</b>
    For each receiver system determine which interface(s) should receive a message.
    <b>Message Branch (Message Split)</b>
    If multiple receivers are found, XI will instantiate new message for each receiver.
    <b>Request Message Mapping</b>
    Call the mapping program to perform the message structure to the receiver format.
    <b>Outbound Binding (Technical Routing)</b>
    Bind a specific destination and protocol to the message.
    <b>Call Adapter</b>
    Send the transformed message to the adapter or proxy.
    Regards,
    Sarvesh

  • Logs and Traces - low performance

    Hi,
    I encounter a serious problem with application Logs and Traces in NWA. In that application we deal with predefined and custom views . The predefined views work perfectly, but when I run a custom view, it takes over 3min. to get any result. I can hardly imagine that there is nothing left to do.
    Has anyone encountered the same issue? Did you solve it?
    Thanks very much,
    Wesley

    Hi Denis,
    The tables mentioned above only log "technical" details of the logs and will not be helpful for your requirement.  The best way to view the device logs is via the Device Logs Monitoring.  It provides advanced search facility for the devices, whose logs you are interested in.  Additionally, once you have got the list of devices based on your search criteria, for a selected device, it is possible to filter out the logs for that device through the "Additional Logs Filter" button where you could filter based on the severity, time range and even by the user (client user) who was logged in the client when these log records were being logged.
    Hope this helps.
    Best Regards,
    Kranti

  • NET8의 LOGGING AND TRACE관련 PARAMETER에 대한 Q & A

    제품 : SQL*NET
    작성날짜 : 1999-07-30
    NET8의 LOGGING AND TRACE관련 PARAMETER에 대한 Q & A
    ==================================================
    PURPOSE
    NET8의 LOGGING AND TRACE관련 PARAMETER에 대해 알아 보도록한다
    Explanation
    1. NET8에서 trace를 왜 사용하고 어떤 component들에 trace를 할 수 있나요 ?
    Trace의 특징은 네트워크을 수행하게 될때 network event들을 기술한다
    즉 trace와 관련된 일련의 문장들이 자세하게 생성된다.
    "Tracing"의 운영으로 log파일에 제공되어 있는 것 보다 NET8의 component들의
    내부적인 정보를 보다 많이 얻을 수 있다.
    이러한 정보는 에러의 결과로 인하여 발생하는 동일한 event들로 파일들에
    결과가 생성되어 이를 이용하여 문제의 원인을 판단할 수 있다.
    주의 : trace의 기능을 이용하는 경우 충분한 disk space와 system
    performance의 현격한 저하를 가져올 수 있다.
    즉 trace의 기능은 반드시 필요할 경우에만 사용할 것을 권한다.
    Example
    Reference Ducumment
    << trace의 기능을 이용하여 trace를 할수 있는 component들 >>
    * Network listener
    * Net8 components on the client and server
    * Connection Manager
    * Oracle Names Server
    * Oracle Names Control Utility
    * TNSPING utility
    2. 어떤 parameter들을 설정하면 trace 기능을 이용할 수 있는가 ?
    tracing을 하기 위해서는 특정 trace parameter들을 설정함으로써 가능하며
    아래에 주어진 방법들과 또는 utility들중 하나를 선택하여 설정함으로써
    사용할 수 있다.
    * Component Configuration Files
    * Component Control Utilities
    * Oracle Trace
    component의 configuration 파일을 이용하여 traceing parameter를 설정하려면
    1) component의 configuration 파일에 다음의 traceing parameter를 설정한다.
    - SQLNET.ORA for client or server, LISTENER.ORA for listener:
    TRACE_LEVEL_<CLIENT/LISTENER/SERVER>=(0/4/10/16)
    TRACE_DIRECTORY_<CLIENT/LISTENER/SERVER>=<directory name>
    LOG_DIRECTORY_<CLIENT/LISTENER/SERVER>=<directory name>
    2) 만일 component들이 수행중인 동안 configuration 파일의 수정이 있었다면
    변경된 parameter들을 사용하기 위해 component들을 다시 시작하여야 한다.
    component control utility들을 이용하여 trace parameter들을 설정하려면
    1) listener의 경우, Listener Control Utility(lsnrctl)에서 TRACE 명령어를
    이용하여 listener가 수행중인 동안에도 trace level을 설정할 수 있다.
    EX)
    RC80:/mnt3/rctest80> lsnrctl
    LSNRCTL for SVR4: Version 8.0.4.0.0 - Production on 01-SEP-98 15:16:52
    (c) Copyright 1997 Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
    Welcome to LSNRCTL, type "help" for information.
    LSNRCTL> trace admin
    Connecting to (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(KEY=PNPKEY))
    Opened trace file: /mnt4/coe/app/oracle/product/8.0.4/network/trace/
    lsnr_coe.trc
    The command completed successfully
    LSNRCTL> trace off
    Connecting to (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=ipc)(KEY=PNPKEY))
    The command completed successfully
    LSNRCTL> exit
    RC80:/mnt3/rctest80>
    2) Oracle Names의 경우, Names Control Utility(namesctl)에서 TRACE_LEVEL
    명령어를 이용하여 Oracle Names가 수행중인 동안에도 trace level을
    설정할 수 있다.
    주의 : Connection Manager의 경우, trace level은 configuration 파일인
    CMAN.ORA 에서만 설정할 수 있다.
    Oracle Enterprose manager(이하 OEM)에 있는 Oracle Trace는 trace parameter
    들을 설정하고 GUI를 통해 trace data의 형태를 볼수 있도록 하는 tracing tool
    이다.
    3. Trace된 data를 해석할 수 있는 다른 utility들이 있다면 ?
    Trace Assistant를 사용하면 사용자의 *.trc 파일 (SQL*Net v2의 형식에 의해
    생성된) 또는 *.txt (Orace Trace 과 TRCFMT에 의해 생성된 출력물)을 통해
    trac된 정보를 해석할 수 있다.
    이 유틸리티 네트워크의 문제들로 인해 발생하는 문제점들을 진단하고
    해결하는 데 보다 많은 정보를 제공하여 사용자의 이해를 돕는다.
    * the source and destination of trace files
    * the flow of packets between network nodes
    * which component of Net8 is failing
    * pertinent error codes
    다음에 주어진 명령어를 수행하므로써 Trace Assistant 실행할 수 있다.
    trcasst [options] <filename>
    Trace Assistant Text Formatting Options
    -o Displays connectivity and Two Task Common (TTC) information.
    After the -o the following options may be used:
    c (for summary connectivity information)
    d (for detailed connectivity information)
    u (for summary TTC information)
    t (for detailed TTC information)
    q (displays SQL commands enhancing summary TTC
    information)
    -p Oracle Internal Use Only
    -s Displays statistical information
    -e Enables display of error information After the -e, zero
    or one error decoding level may follow:
    0 or nothing (translates the NS error numbers dumped
    from the nserror function plus lists all
    other errors)
    1 (displays only the NS error translation from
    the nserror function)
    2 (displays error numbers without translation)
    만일 option들이 제공되지 않는다면 기본적으로 -odt -e -s가 지정되어 자세한
    connectivity, Two-Task Common, 에러 level 0 그리고 통계정보들이 tracing
    된다.
    4. SQL*Net v2 tracing과 어떻게 다른가 ?
    Net8 tracing에서는 이전 버전인 SQL*NET V2에서 제공 되는 모든 option을
    포함하고 있고 Oracle Trace의 기능이 추가되었다.
    이것은 Oracle Trace Repository를 OEM 콘솔을 통하여 사용자의 trace 정보를
    관리할 수 있도록 허용한다.
    5. *.cdf와 *.dat은 어떤 파일 인가 ?
    *.cdf 와 *.dat 파일들은 Oracle Trace에 의해 생성되는 파일들로서 이 파일들을
    읽기 위해서는 반드시 trcfmt utility를 이용해야만 한다.
    trcfmt는 binary (*.dat와 *.cdf의 확장자) 파일내에 있는 data를 일반text
    (.txt의 확장자)로 정보를 추출한다. 이 tool을 사용하기 위해서는 다음의
    명령어를 이용하면 된다.
    $ trcfmt collection.cdf
    주의 : .cdf와 .dat파일이 존재하는 디렉토리가 아닌 곳에서 이 tool을 이용
    한다면 path가 포함되야 한다. 만일 하나의 .cdf 와 .dat 파일들내에
    여러 프로세스들의 traceing정보가 수집된다면 그것들은 process_id.txt
    의 이름과 함께 파일이 추출될 것이다.
    6. trac관련 configuration은 어떤 것이 있으며 설정할 수 있는 parameter는
    무엇이 있는가 ?

    7. listener.log 파일에 loggin정보를 남기지 않게 하는 방법이 있나요 ?
    고객이 개발하여 사용중인 application에서 NET8을 이용하여 접속하거나 접속을
    종료하는 경우 listener.log에 이와 관련된 정보가 남으며, 수 많은 사용자가
    접속을 하게 되므로서 급속하게 listener.log 파일이 커져 $ORACLE_HOME이 있는
    file system이 꽉 차서 데이터베이스가 hang이 되는 결과를 초래하는 경우가 있다.
    고객들은 listener.log에 write할수 있는 메세지의 양에 제한을 두기를 원하는
    경우가 있으나 이러한 기능은 제공되지 않는다. 하지만 listener의 logging은
    ON 또는 OFF는 설정을 통해서 가능하다.
    Net8에서는 listener.ora에 "LOGGING_(the listener name)=off"를 설정하게
    되면 listener의 logging을 멈출 수 있다.
    물론 설정후 listener stop후 재기동을 하셔야 변경된 paramerter에 의해
    이 기능이 enable됩니다.
    참고 : SQL*NET 2.3.x 에서도 이 parameter가 유효한가요 ?
    물론 사용이 가능합니다. NET8에서 사용하는 것과 동일하게 parameter를
    listener.ora에 설정함으로서 가능합니다.
    EX)
    LOGGING_LISTENER=OFF
    이 parameter는 listener의 전체 logging을 disable하는 parameter로 일부만
    여과하여 logging할 수 있는 기능은 아니다.
    이 parameter는 NET8에 알려진 parameter로 SQL*NET 2.3.x manuals에 나와
    있지는 않지만 정상적으로 사용할 수 있다.

    Okay, i have 2 bugs with maverick.  First, when I delete a file within a window, the files deletes but the preview doesn't delete until I close the window and reopen it.  Second, I work on a network of computers and the search feature is now buggy...  When I search for a file, A) it asks me if it's a name, or it wont produce anything, and B), its slower than in prior OS versions and in some instances I have to toggle to a different directory and go back to my original directory in the search: menu bar or the search wont produce anything...  Very buggy. 

    It appears to me that network file access is buggy in Maverick.
    In my case I have a USB Drive attached to airport extreme (new model) and when I open folders on that drive they all appear empty. If I right click and I select get info after a few minutes! I get a list of the content.
    It makes impossible navigate a directory tree.
    File access has been trashed in Maverick.
    They have improved (read broken) Finder. I need to manage a way to downgrade to Lion again.

  • How to create a Windows 8.1 Desktop icon from the Metro/Start and/or Search Tool?

    I'm a Desktop user, but often find myself needing to go to the Metro/Start and Search Tool to find programs and App(let)s in order to run them.  However, after doing this several times for many programs, I find myself wanting to create
    Desktop icons to run the programs more easily.  Is there a way to do this from the Metro/Start Icon and/or Search Tool results?
    If not, Microsoft, please consider adding the ability to do this.
    It would be very nice if this ability supported all of the icon types shown in the Metro/Start, Search Tool, and Control Panel interfaces, e.g.: Metro Apps, Desktop Programs, Charms, and Control Panel Applets.
    Currently, there is a way to pin the Metro/Start Icon to the Desktop, but the Taskbar will get very cluttered with even only a handful icons.
    It would be very nice if the desktop icon created by this also supported the context options that the program/app(let) now shows as Tasks when the icon is pinned to the Desktop Taskbar.
    Additionally, it would be nice if I could also simply drag a Pinned Taskbar icon onto the Desktop area, again, retaining it's Tasks as context menu options when the Desktop Taskbar icon is right clicked.
    This ability would be very helpful for people needing to get to programs and App(let)s, without having to resort the Metro/Start and Search Tool, because when there are a lot of Metro/Start icons, I have well over a hundred icons, it
    can be very hard to find one simply eye-balling lot.  The Search feature is much better, provided I know the name to look for and can remember it.
    Finally, this ability would be very helpful, because the kinds of desktop shortcut icons that I can create using the New Shortcut option, assuming that can I find the program/App(let)'s name and path information, do not support the context options
    that the icons could in Windows 7 when an icon is created while installing the program.

  • My drop-down list won't appear anymore so every time I want to go to a new site I have to type it in where before my drop-down box would appear and I could just click it and hit search and go there how do I make my drop-down box come back

    somehow I must've clicked a button that took away my drop down box when I go to use my Google search so different sites that I go to a lot I would always just click it when the drop-down box came up I would click again and hit search and you would bring that page up but even if I go to a site once I leave that I try to click and make the drop-down box come up again with the new search and it nothing happens so the problem is I need my drop down box to come back up to all the places that I visit kind of like a history of like I said I would just click and it would come up by itself now the drop-down box won't come up anymore so I need somebody to tell me what to do to bring my drop-down box back also I am new to computers so I don't know a lot so don't be real technical thanks for the help merry Christmas from Joe

    It's not a matter of me assuming to restore it, once the error comes up, the only next step I can do is to restore it. I can't access any of the iphones settings in itunes or anything, it's a mandatory restore. If I just cancel the sync (before restoring) and disconnect the phone, all my apps crash on opening: aka unusable phone. So I have literally no choice but to restore every time the error shows up if I want my phone to work.
    I have no idea where I may have duplicate files as it doesn't tell me, so if that is the problem (which I don't think it is) then I don't know where I have to go to delete the duplicates.
    And the duplicate file error still doesn't explain why leaving iTunes to restore the phone doesn't work and me having to drag the window around. I know it sounds utterly ridiculous, my friend didn't believe me when I told him either but then I showed him and he was as confused as I am. If I just leave the restore to do its own thing at it's own pace, it will loa maybe 20% then fail for whatever reason.

  • Is there a way to view current playlist during airplay to apple TV and perhaps search and add to queue? So there are no interruptions between videos?

    We are having a karaoke night and have all the songs as videos in iTunes, would be great to select the  item and edit the current playlist.
    so we have a seamless transition to the next abba video
    Is this possible? Perhaps there are other products / apph able to suppor this?
    Thanks

    No, Apple very rarely make advance announcements of bug fixes.
    You can restore much of the look & feel of the previous version with these shortcuts:
    Ctrl-B to turn on the menu bar.
    Ctrl-S to turn on the sidebar.
    Ctrl-/ to turn on the status bar.
    Click the magnifying glass top right and untick Search Entire Library for the old search behavior.
    Alternatively you roll back to iTunes 10.7. If so, first download a copy of the 32 bit installer or 64 bit installer as appropriate, uninstall iTunes and supporting software, i.e. Apple Application Support & Apple Mobile Device Support. Reboot. Restore the pre-upgrade version of your library database as per the diagram below, then install iTunes 10.7.
    See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to scan the media folder and catch up with any changes made since the backup file was created.
    You might also want to use iTunes Feedback.

  • How can I restore the search bar drop down list and current search engine icon as it was in FF version 33?

    Is there a way to restore the search bar from version 33?
    I like seeing which search engine I have selected and the ability to change it with a drop down list BEFORE I highlight text, right-click, and select ' Search Google for "xxxx" '
    Any way to roll back this latest "improvement"?

    If you miss being able to switch search engines without going
    crazy with menus, try this out;
    '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/context-search/ Context Search]''' {web link}
    Expands the context menu's 'Search for' item into a list of
    installed search engines, allowing you to choose the engine
    you want to use for each search.

  • How to implement Quick Query and Saved Searches in ADF?

    We are using 11gR2 ADF.
    The requirement is to enable Quick Search and save the Searches.
    In the Oracle ADF documentation, it is mentioned that
    - Create a view with view criteria named.
    - In the .jspx drag and drop the view criteria and Select Quick Query
    Upon doing the above, we see that a Search panel is getting created, but with a message 'No Search Fields Added'.
    In the named view criteria, Under 'UI Hints' we have set
    -- execution mode as Both
    -- Search region mode is Basic
    -- Show Operators in Basic
    Under 'Criteria Definition'
    the attributes are added in a group with OR condition.
    Thanks for your reply. Oracle ADF developer guide does not help!!
    If you have any other documentation that helps in implementing this Quick Query and Saved Search, your help is greatly appreciated.

    Set the following on your af:query component
    SaveQueryMode = hidden
    ModeChangeVisible = false
    This should work for you ..
