Performance Increase when display is attached

Hello,
I find this very strange and I'm hoping someone can offer some input.
I have a music studio where there are 2 Dual 2.0 G5 machines acting as hosts running Logic Studio and each has 6 mac minis attached acting as slaves. There are no displays hooked up to these minis as we are accessing all of them through ARD (remote desktop).
On each of the minis we are running Plogue Bidule hosting multiple instances of Kontakt. There is a SUBSTANTIAL decrease in loadtime when a display is attached to the mac mini... I have tested this multiple times on different mac minis and have found nothing that can explain it.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
-Jake Monaco

Wow, that's a real stumper. I've never heard of running headless affecting performance so severly, or at all. Plenty of people run mini's as headless servers and I have never heard this complaint of a slowdown.
You need to get your hands on this:
http://www.apple.com/macosx/developertools/instruments.html
Or more accurately, the developer of the programs you are using need to be brought into the loop on this issue and they need to run something like the above utility to isolate it.

Keep fixed resolution even when display not attached

Is there any way to lock the display resolution on a Mac, even when there is no display attached? Or to change the set of display resolutions that are available when no display is attached?
I connect a Mac to my A/V system via DVI -> HDMI. As long as the unit the Mac is connected to is turned on, the Mac gets reasonable EDID info and allows me to set it to 1920x1080, as desired. But after turning the A/V system off overnight, the Mac invariably reverts to some lower resolution, which wreaks havoc with window sizes and positions. I just want the Mac to stay at 1920x1080.
I tried SwitchResX, which lets you add available resolutions and disable resolutions, but only when the display is attached, so it accomplishes nothing when the display is disconnected. I've confirmed the inability of SwitchResX to address the problem with its author.
I purchased a Gefen DVI Detective Plus that theoretically learns the EDID information of a display, keeps that information available to the Mac at all times, and passes the video through it. This would be perfect, except A) it doesn't work correctly in the learning mode (I never did get an image up that way), and B) using a built-in EDID configuration it doesn't cleanly pass the video (it works sometimes, for a little while, but then sparklies start to appear and before long the HDMI connection is lost). Useless.
I found information on the web about various .plist files, and I've edited most or all of them, all to no avail. I think I could give myself additional resolutions, while a display is connected, but, again, it's the behavior when there effectively is no display that is causing me problems.
Unless someone here knows a way to lock the display resolution or to edit the set of resolutions available when a display is missing I fear I'll be moving and resizing windows for the rest of my days.
(Note: This machine happens to still be on Tiger, but I'd be happy to upgrade it to Leopard if that would afford a solution.)

Are you saying you already got it fixed but the problem is reaccuring??
I am part of the unlucky ones who didnt't have applecare or the extended warranty. My iMac broke down 8 months ago. I no longer have any display. The strange thing was I left it at home because I went to uni, so there was a period of at least 10 months where it was not used. But still it failed within a few weeks of me getting back home. I was sucked in by their adverts making me believe they were a superior computer to any windows based. How wrong was I. It has now left me with a very bitter taste.
Any of you guys know if it still will work if I connect an external monitor?

CRM Interaction Centre - Error when display an attachment

Hi All,
I'm getting this error when I try to display the attachment in CRM.
"No document display because of missing Customizing for HTTP service '/default_host/sap/bc/contentserver' -> See SAP Note 606745"
We have activated the contentserver in transaction SICF. I can attach a document but cannot display...I can attach .doc and pdf files.
Is there any missing settings to display that attachment?
thanks,

Table's field increases when displaying contents

Hi Experts,
I need to show the Title along with the name. Following statement gives me the error:
gv_title type tsad3-title_medi
title_medi does not exist in the table tsad3.
As you can see, there are 7 fields in the first screenshot and 8 fields in the second screenshot. How come? I need to pick the title. Pl suggest.
Regards
Mani

Hi Mani,
For table TSAD3 there is text table TSAD3T. While displying it joins both tables TSAD3 and TSAD3T.
But while declaring you follow as below:
gv_title type tsad3T-title_medi.

Performance impact on displaying images when tested with loadrunner

Hi,
We have a page in the application that displays PDF images to the user.
The PDF's are stored on HP-UX file system and have the BFILE path
of the image stored along with other meta-data. The ave size of the PDF is around 250 kb.The images are displayed fine when the user wants to view the images.
The problem we have been facing is more related to performance.
When loadrunner tests were conducted to allow 75 users to concurrently
view the images, the CPU utilization shoots up to 100%.
All other resources such as memory, io are fine and the image display time is
within acceptable limits.
Are there any settings or configurations that can be done to bring done the CPU utilization totolerable limits. Also the box hosts other application which we fear might be impacted and henceit is very important for us to bring down the cpu utilization
The code to display the PDF is similar to the one in sample app
PROCEDURE DISPLAY_PDF_PRC (IMAGE_PATH_I IN BFILE)
IS
V_BLOB BLOB;
V_BFILE BFILE;
BEGIN
V_BFILE := IMAGE_PATH_I;
V_BLOB := EMPTY_BLOB();
DBMS_LOB.CREATETEMPORARY(V_BLOB, TRUE);
DBMS_LOB.FILEOPEN(V_BFILE,DBMS_LOB.FILE_READONLY);
DBMS_LOB.LOADFROMFILE(V_BLOB,V_BFILE,DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(V_BFILE));
DBMS_LOB.FILECLOSE(V_BFILE);
OWA_UTIL.MIME_HEADER('application/pdf', FALSE);
OWA_UTIL.HTTP_HEADER_CLOSE;
WPG_DOCLOAD.DOWNLOAD_FILE(V_BLOB);
DBMS_LOB.FREETEMPORARY(V_BLOB);
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
Htp.Prn('No image found.');
END;
We first thought creating the temporary blob might be costly and modified the code to use lob locator.Still the CPU utilization was over 100%.
The next thing we tried was to eliminate the creation and usage of BLOBs altogether and directly render the images from the BFILE as mentioned in the code below and tried to use the browser caching also.
PROCEDURE DISPLAY_PDF_PRC (IMAGE_PATH_I IN BFILE)
IS
V_BFILE BFILE;
BEGIN
V_BFILE := IMAGE_PATH_I;
htp.p('Expires: ' || to_char(sysdate + 1/24, 'FMDy, DD Month YYYY HH24:MI:SS'));
OWA_UTIL.MIME_HEADER('application/pdf', FALSE);
OWA_UTIL.HTTP_HEADER_CLOSE;
WPG_DOCLOAD.DOWNLOAD_FILE(V_BFILE);
end;
Still the CPU utilization is over 100%.
So can you please point to any configurations that neeed to be done on Apache App server/DB server or any optimizations at the code level to restrict the CPU utilization.
Thanks in Advance
Rakesh

Typically, you do not refer to PDFs as images. Common image formats are .jpg, .gif, .png, .bmp, etc.
Can you store them directly on the file system and just reference their URLs instead of reading them out of the database? If so, this should all but eliminate the CPU load.
If you only have one database on this machine, you can use the database resource scheduler to throttle the CPU utilization of the sessions downloading images. If you have more than one db, then the Resource Manager is basically useless, which is one of the main reasons to only install one db per machine.
Another thought is to use a web cache instance in front of the HTTP Server if their are a lot of repeat views of the same PDFs. This way you cache the first view of the PDF on the web cache tier so subsequent requests don't go against the db.
Yet another option (though not out for HP-UX yet) is the 11g "Secure Files" option. I've done some informal testing on this last week and read performance was easily 3x faster than traditional LOBs. My tests weren't very scientific as I was using VMWare on a laptop which generally has very poor physical I/O performance. They claim reads performance is comparable to the Linux file system.

Automatically display number when the mouse attach approach node for chart ?

Hi all,
can automatically display number when the mouse attach approach node for chart ?
For detail ,see attach file
Thanks in advance !

Charts don't have cursors and they also don't have the "plot images" options, so your tools are limited.
Of course you can simulate a chart using a graph by keeping your own history and display it on a graph. Use cursor move events to trigger the calculation of the distances from the new cursor position to all points on the graph and pick the one with the shortest distance to the cursor. Now you can get the annotation tools to label the point, or get its x and y value and write the info using picture tools with the "plot images" property.

Invalid URL error when displaying Work Item Attached URL Object in UWL

Hi,
After upgraded from EP6 to EP7 the user can no longer display the attached URL object of work items in the UWL Inbox. It works fine in the SAPGUI Inbox so the URL should be okay. We found below error messages in UWL log file:

Looks like the error is related to the back slashes in the URL but it was working fine in EP6. We are going to change the back slashes to forward slashes to see it will work. We would like to know if any SDNers can provide some more detail on why this is happening and if there is other solution. Any hint will be very appreciated.

Jiannan Che

Use link attachment or add button action to UWL as possible workaround. It appears that work item text can only be displayed as-is.

Major Performance Loss when the charger is plugged in

I have a Toshiba Satellite L50D-ASTNX, and have been noticing severe performance loss when I have my charging cable plugged in, whether it is losing frame rate in a video game, or receiving extreme stutters and cpu underruns when producing music on FL Studio 11. When I'm not plugged in my performance is great on high performance mode, but the second I plug in my charger I receive an instant and noticeable drop in performance and IT IS FRUSTRATING to say the least. This has nothing to do with my battery settings, nor does it have anything to do with my advance power settings because I have checked all of that. If anyone has a solution to this please let me know because I'm tired of getting only an hour of use on my laptop before I have to plug the charger bac in and leave it alone since it struggles to perform when charging.

Hey cacobo,
I found an article that can help with troubleshooting an iPhone's receiver or speakers.
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (chooseSettings > General > Bluetooth).
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
Hope that helps,
David

Is there anything i can do in Discoverer Desktop / Administration to avoid this problem.
Many thanks,

Hi Rod,
I've tried the condition (Batch Status||'' = 'Posted') as you suggested, but the qeury time is still over 20 mins. To test i changed it to (Batch Status||'' = 'Unposted') and the query was returned within seconds again.
Ive been doing some more digging and have found the database view that is linked to the Journal Batches folder. See below.
I think the problem is with the column using DECODE. When querying the column in TOAD the value of P is returned. But in discoverer the condition is done on the value Posted. Im not too sure how DECODE works, but think this could be the causing some sort of issue with Full Table Scans. How do we get around this?

Performance problem when running a personalization rule

We have a serious performance problem when running a personalization rule.
The rule is defined like this:
Definition
Rule Type: Content
Content Type: LoadedData
Name: allAnnouncements
Description: all announcements of types: announcement, deal, new release,
tip of the day
If the user has the following characteristics:
And when:
Then display content based on:
(CONTENT.RessourceType == announcement) or (CONTENT.RessourceType == deal)
or (CONTENT.RessourceType == new release) or (CONTENT.RessourceType == tip
of the week)
and CONTENT.endDate > now
and CONTENT.startDate <= now
END---------------------------------
and is invoked in a JSP page like this:
<%String customQuery = "(CONTENT.language='en') && (CONTENT.Country='nl'
|| CONTENT.Country='*' ) && (!(CONTENT.excludeIds like '*#7#*')) &&
(CONTENT.userType ='retailer')"%>
<pz:contentselector
id="cdocs"
ruleSet="jdbc://com.beasys.commerce.axiom.reasoning.rules.RuleSheetDefinitio
nHome/b2boost"
rule="allAnnouncements"
sortBy="startDate DESC"
query="<%=customQuery%>"
contentHome="<%=ContentHelper.DEF_DOCUMENT_MANAGER_HOME%>" />
The customQuery is constructed at runtime from user information, and cannot
be constructed with rules
administration interface.
When I turn on debugging mode, I can see that the rule is parsed and a SQL
query is generated, with the correct parameters.
This is the generated query (with the substitutions):

At this moment, the server makes the user wait more than 10 min for the
query to execute.
This is what I found out about the problem:
1)When I run the query on an Oracle SQL client (We are using Oracle 8.1.7.0)
, it takes 5-10 seconds.
2)If I remove the second term of (CONTENT.Country='nl' ||
CONTENT.Country='*' ) in the custom query,
thus retricting to CONTENT.Country='nl', the performance is OK.
3)There are currently more or less 130 records in the DB that have
Country='*'
4)When I run the page on our QA server (solaris), which is at the same time
our Oracle server,
the response time is OK, but if I run it on our development server (W2K),
response time is ridiculously long.
5)The problem happens also if I add the term (CONTENT.Country='nl' ||
CONTENT.Country='*' )
to the rule definition, and I remove this part from the custom query.
Am I missing something? Am I using the personalization server correctly?
Is this performance difference between QA and DEV due to differences in the
OS?
Thank you,

Luis,
I think you are working through Support on this one, so hopefully you are in good
shape.
For others who are seeing this same performance issue with the reference CM implementation,
there is a patch available via Support for the 3.2 and 3.5 releases that solves
this problem.
This issue is being tracked internally as CR060645 for WLPS 3.2 and CR055594 for
WLPS 3.5.

The rule is defined like this:

If the user has the following characteristics:

The customQuery is constructed at runtime from user information, and

When I turn on debugging mode, I can see that the rule is parsed and
a SQL

Outlook2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Reader 11

Problem statement: Outlook 2013 email message goes behind main Outlook window when opening PDF attachment with Adobe Reader 11.0.3
Environment: Windows 8 x64; Office 2013; Adobe Reader 11.0.3
Steps to reproduce bug:
1. Open Outlook 2013
2. Open email message with PDF attachment
3. Open PDF attachment (with Adobe Reader as default PDF viewer)
4. Close Adobe Reader
Results: Original email message with PDF attacment now sits behind the main Outlook window
Expected results: Original email message should be on top of main Outlook window as it was when opening the PDF attachment
Note: Adobe Acrobat Profession performs as expected - the original email is on top of the main Outlook window - This only seems to be a problem with Adobe Reader.
Has anyone else experience this problem? If so, have you found a work-around?
Thanks,
Mike

From: new window opens behind existing window - how to modify?
I had this problem happening in Outlook.
If I tried to open an email, it would open behind the main Outlook window.
The same happened if I opened a link in the email - it would open behind the mail.
The fix that was suggested to me was so simple that I still don't believe it.
Right click on the task bar and unlock the taskbar, then lock it again.
Close down Outlook and re-start it.
Problem solved! Just dont know how or why.

It worked for me with Win 7 and OL 2003. Why? Who cares ... It is working.

CSV file encoded as UTF - 8 loses characters when displayed with excel 2010

Hello everybody,
I have adapted a customer report to be able to send certain data via mail a a CSV attachment.
For that purpose I am using class cl_bcs.
Everything goes fine, but since mail attachment contains certain german characters as Ü, when displaying it with excel those characters appear as corrupted.
It seems the problem is with excel, because when opening the same file with notepad, the Ü is there. If I import the file to excel with the importer, it is correct too.
Anyway, is there any solution to this problem?
I have tried concatenating byte_order_mark_utf8 in the beginning of the file, but still excel does not recognize it.
Thanks in advance,
Pablo.

- Does ms excell actually support UTF-8
Yes. I believed that we installed some international add-on which is not in default installnation. Anyway, other UTF-8 or UTF-16 file can be openned and viewed by Excel without any problem.
- have you verifide that the file is viewable as a UTF-8 -encoded file
I think so. If I open it into Notepad and choose "save as", the file type if UTF-8 file
- Try opening the file in a program you are confident
that it support UTF-8 - eg. Mozilla...
I will try that.
- Check that your UTF-8 -encoded file has a UTF-8 identifier (0xFEFF ?)
as the first character
The unicode-16(LE or BE) file I got from internet, I found there is always two bytes in the front. (0xFEFF or 0xFFFE). My UTF-8 file generated by java doesn't have that. But should UTF-8 file also has this kind of specifcal bytes in the front? If I manually add these bytes in the front of my file using Ultraeditor and open it in Excel2000, it didn't help.
- Try using another spreadsheet program that supports UTF-8
Do you know any other spreadsheet program supports csv file and UTF-8.

Performance problem when printing - table TSPEVJOB big size

Hi,
in a SAP ERP system there is performance problem when printing because table TSPEVJOB has many millions of entries.
This table has reached a considerable size (about 90 Gb); db size is 200 Gb.
Standard reports have been scheduled correctly and kernel of SAP ERP system is updated.
I've tried to scheduled report RSPO1041 (instead of RSPO0041) to reduce entries but it is not possible run it during normal operations because it locks the printing system.
Do you know why this table has increased ?
Are there any reports to clean this table or other methods ?
Thanks.
Maurizio Manera

Dear,
Please see the Note 706478 - Preventing Basis tables from increasing considerably and
Note 195157 - Application log: Deletion of logs.
Note 1566659 - Table TSPEVJOB is filled excessively
Note 1293472 - Spool work process hangs on semaphore 43
Note 1362343 - Deadlocks in table TSP02 and TSPEVJOB
Note 996455 - Deadlocks on TSP02 or TSPEVJOB when you delete
