Planning an implementation - suggestions?

Hello,
We are planning an implementation that would be setup as automatic failover in the event of a disaster. We only have two physical servers (Windows 2008 R2 based). What is everyone's suggestion? I read a lot about origin-only cluster and origin-edge clusters. It seems like origin-only cluster would work best for this type of fail over but I'm not sure. We would most likely use Microsoft network load balancer built-in on Windows 2008 R2. We have the option of using remote storage but could also do local storage. The types of streaming would be videos loaded to the server (not live). Let me know any suggestions to achive an automatic failover with two physical systems

Since you have just two servers at your disposal , i don't think edge-origin cluster would be possible as such.
But before i proceed what kind of failover are you looking at, are you looking at 24X7 kind of availability when you say failover or are you talking about data being available all the time?
Now if you are looking at availability , probably you can program your client (or probably your load balancer can do that) to go next origin if first origin is unavailable.
Also since you are interested only in VOD, you can replicate your media files to different locations , local or remote(UNC paths only), and configure FMS to stream from any one of them.

Forgive me for saying, but it means:
Implementing security which complies with Sarbanes Oxley requirements and takes into account Segregation of Duties.
SOX and SOD are different things, from a security perspective SOX is generally technical security based and SOD is business process based (although bus proc has big SOX component).
There is a plethora of information via yahoo/google etc.

Whether i will able to avail call facilities with my ipad(Cellular) by not jailbreaking it? If not now, whether apple has any future plans to implement the same?

An iPad is a tablet, not a phone, they do have plans, it's called an iPhone....
While it has celluar data this isn't hte same as a celluar line or ability to make phones, can you imagine how stupid you'd look with a tablet against your ear?

Planning to implement Travel Management

Dear Experts,
As part of SAP HR Project implementation planning to implement Travel Management, so please guide me which are mandatory, optional and all.
Hope for best guidance.
Regards,
Reddy

Hi
This is sub module in SAP HCM.
There is few things which you need to consider for travel mgt implementation.
1. Travel Request - There is standard form for travel request. You can use the same or if your client requirement is different then do customization .This is mandatory. you dnt need to do mush configuration here.
2. Travel planning- this is only use if your client wants to integrate third party travel services. this is optional.
3. travel expenses- This is most important part of travel management. There is also stanbdard form for claim of travel expense . you can use the same . This is mandatory.
Here you need to create trip provision variant, travel schema , travel expenses types, per diem etc.
If you are using travel request & travel expense claim through ESS/MSS , then there is bit changes required in portal configuration. along with workflow .
Finally infotype 0017 is most important for travel Management.
Thanks

Usage of MRP Procedures in Consumption Based Planning during Implementation

We have following procedures in CBP:
1. Reorder Point Planning- Manual and Automatic
2. Forecast based Planning
3. Time phased Planning.
In SAP implementations, which of these procedure is mostly used in companies in real time.
Though the CBP planning node is in MM SPRO and MM study material also contains CBP. During implementations, for CBP the responsibility rests with MM consultant or PP Consultant or both.
Please share your views on this.

Dear ,
Let me share my views on this as we are runing CBP-Forcast base planning in our trading business .
Decision on CBP-Forecast base planning method are based on the following criteria
1.Stockable and low value material
2.Fast Moving with good sales pattern ( Trend Analysis , Historical Trend analysis on Product Group , Statistical Sales analysis )
3.Inventory turn around based on the monthly physical inventory and sales
4.Good service level percentage over an period .
5.Consumption pattern .
Decision on CBP-Re-order point planning method are based on the following criteria
1. Material which are higher valu and Non Stockable
2. Customer oriented traded goods
3. Strategic vendor with good Sales pattern .
4.Re-order Level based on Sales Forecast (Manual or Automatic )
In SAP implementations, which of these procedure is mostly used in companies in real time : It is based on the business requirement (Trading /Manufacturing ) .Mostly Trading business goes for CBP-Forecast Base planning method (MRP Type -VV) IF THE MATERIALS HAS GOOD CONSUMPTION PATTERN OVER A PERIOD OF TIME .
MRP is both the part of Supply Chain Planning and Manufactruing . Material master parameters are maintained by MM .CBP is one kind of MRP where Demand Management comes into PP whereas after MRP run , procurement proposal handeled by MM.So there is no hard and fast rule that it is only part of PP.It is the combination of MM and PP.
Hope this will help you to analysise your requirement .

Soft proofing - implementation suggestions

Reading this thread it seems the Lightroom team is seriously considering or actually implementing soft proofing for LR3.0. Since it's not in the current beta, the users cannot give feedback on the implementation. Instead, let's use this thread to give suggestions on how soft proofing should work.
Here are my suggestions:
availability: soft proofing should be available in all modules: you need it for print and web output, but the necessary corrections are made in the develop and library modules.
UI placement: the film strip seems to be a logical place for a tool that can be used from within all modules.
features: soft proofing would need an on/off toggle, a clipping indicator toggle and a list menu to select/create soft proofing profiles (with a choice of relative/perceptual; black point would be nice but doesn't fit the 'lightroom way').
monitor proofing: make it easy for users to select the profile corresponding to their monitor. That way they get a warning that their monitor may be 'cheating' them (especially on laptops).
further: the tool could show a warning if it is switched on with the 'wrong' profile for the active module. For example, for web you should only use sRGB, for print the same as selected for the printer and for the slideshow perhaps only the monitor profile.
Anyone else?

I disagree for several reason: 1) the Develop module is the ONLY color accurate viewing environment, 2) Develop already has a before/after built in that can be adapted to the task of showing a before and an after with the after representing the output space. 3) the Develop module allows the creation and or selection of Develop templates as well as snapshots. Snapshots might make an excellent vehicle for carrying image adjustments.
I am not sure what you mean by the develop module being the only color accurate viewing environment. I just checked it by setting my monitor gamma to 1.0, and all modules applied the necessary adjustments to the images. The only difference I could find is that the other modules use heavily compressed JPGs, leading to the occasional artifact when viewing at 1:1.
I really believe that soft proofing itself is fundamentally an analysis tool that should be accessible from all modules, and not necessarily be linked to image adjustment tools. If someone wants to work on a set of images for a particular output process, he/she should be able to make all necessary changes with soft proofing turned on, and have the effects visible in all modules. Of course, in practice many users will want to target different output media for the same image, and such tools are important, but need not be a show-stopper for soft-proofing to appear.
On your number (2), I personally don't find before/after view essential, or even that useful, when making adjustments for printing. When you want to compress an image into the gamut of a printer, I tend to make small adjustments in the context of that particular image, not with a reference to some master image. The exception to this case would be if you really have something which you would call the 'master' (say, some really famous image), and you want the output to be as close as possible on more restricted printing process. In any case, I wouldn't consider a before/after view as essential. And when it's needed, it could be implemented by an on/off toggle as well, IMO.
I find snapshots quite cumbersome, and especially for the purpose of keeping track of such 'output versions'. The problem is that they exist inside the develop module, they are 'all or nothing', and there is no easy way to transfer partial settings between snapshots. For example, suppose I have three 'output versions' of an image, and I decide to change some of the underlying settings (say, the white balance). Then I don't have an easy way to synchronize these changes between the output versions. Another issue is that there is no easy way to recall snapshots from outside the develop module. If I want to print a couple of images for which I have the necessary adjustments at some other time, I have to go in and select the appropriate snapshot for each of them. In the context of these 'output versions', this is something that should be possible from the library module, where you select the versions you have worked on before.
Also note that while Develop might be the place for adjusting the image for the output, the creation of an output adjustment might be best called up in Print (or Export). So you might create a saved preset that contains the output device, the specific profile, the rendering intent and whatever output based adjustments the image (or images) may need. That could be done directly in the Print module...
The three main factors that soft proofed adjustments require is a change in the tone curve required by differences in dynamic range or outputs, hue and saturation adjustments to counter or alter the way a profile may render a certain (or several) colors and a local area contrast adjustment in the form of Clarity. Ideally, the soft proofing tools should contain a soft proofed histogram, color samples in the output space and tone/color adjustments suited for correcting for the output condition.
Ok, I can see a benefit to a separate output adjustment tool that is specifically aimed for the type of adjustments you'd make when soft-proofing. The settings for this tool could be linked to the output device and profile, so that they would switch automatically according to the profile that is selected. When soft-proofing is turned on in the library module, there could be an icon in the images for which a particular output transformation is defined. And because soft-proofing would be fully functional in the develop module, you could inspect which other images need further adjustments.
I don't think it's very useful to have a 'preset' for this tool for a particular output profile and rendering intent, independent of the image. That's the job of the profile itself. However, it should be possible to easily copy-paste such settings between images. For example, if I have shots a number of images in bright green grass, I will probably need similar adjustments for all of them. Also, settings should be copyable to serve as a starting point for use with a different profile.
The 'output adjustment tool' itself should IMO contain two things:
1) Photoshop-like hue/sat control (with selectable color ranges) [most important]
2) Manual tone curve adjustments.
I wouldn't mind if the tool is only accessible from within the develop module, as long as you can see the soft-proof from all modules. The soft-proofing functionality (separate from this tool) should also take care of adjusting the histogram in the library and develop modules.
Summarinzing, I see room for two separate tool sets that do not necessarily need to be implemented at the same time. The first is an overarching soft-proofing solution that makes the effects of the output transformation visible throughout the workflow. The second is a separate output adjustment tool in the develop module, that is able to link it's settings to the currently selected output device/profile.

Business rules implementation: suggestions

Hi all,
my customer has asked me to implement a set of screens that would allow him to enter new rules or modify existing business rules for his company. Currently, they are sort of hard-coded into the software he uses.
The software he used is a java application combined with an Oracle database.
One way to do this would be just to put together some clever tables in the database with columns and rows indicating what parameters to use for a specific business rule. But how to assess whether a "clever" Oracle table is going to be enough and how far could it be used with more complicated rules ?
OTher suggestions ?
Thank you .
G.

Well, there was an official API (meaning from Sun) for a rules engine in Java... Java Rule ( or Rules) Engine API. No idea how mature it is , since I've never used it.
Search for it and find out if it can help..

Do you have any neartime plans to implement Fuji Xe-1 RAF format of RAW files into Adobe camera RAW?

having recently purchased the amazing fuji x-e1 i was quite disapointed to find a lack of RAW support for the fuji's RAF files.
are there any plans to add this soon or to the next update of adobe camera raw?

This is a user-to-user forum. Although there are some Adobe employees who monitor this forum occasionally, you are not addressing Adobe when you ask a question. Most of the people who comment here are simply users like yourself. However, you should know that updates are made available about every three months. And, usually, new cameras will be supported in the next version of Lightroom and Camera Raw, unless the camera is released too close to an Adobe update. If that happens, then you can usually expect support for the camera to be in the next update. None of us know when that will happen, and anyone who works for Adobe is not at liberty to divulge that information. Your camera will probably be supported in the near future, but you will simply have to wait and see when that will take place. I know, not a real satisfactory answer. But that's the way it is.

Implementation suggestions

Hello. I am in the process of architecting a feature for our databases
and wanted to see if Kodo would have any help for us. Basically I'm
trying to load balance the databases but at the object instance level,
not at the database driver level.
Let's say I have an object named, Person. Kodo would store all Person
objects in one table in one database. But for scaling reasons I would
like to split that up across databases (one set of Person objects split
across databases). So essentially I would have a hashing function to
know where to find a particular Person object from it's Id. That
hashing could be as simple as Persons 1-1000 on DB#1, 1001-2000 on DB#2.
So when I want to save an object, like Person#4, I would go through the
Hash and find that it is saved on DB#1. When I want to load Person#4, I
would go through the Hash and get DB#1, and load the object from there.
Or alternately (slower), I could search across all databases for
Person#4 until I find it.
Do you understand? This is for being able to massively scale a
collection of independent objects for size, speed and efficiency of each
database.
Does Kodo have any features that could help us do this? Does anyone
have any experience with this sort of architecture and how Kodo could
help us implement it? Should I be emailing someone directly?

You need to understand 3 core things to have good understanding of OM..
1) Objects
2) Relationships
3) Attributes
Each element of your org. structure is an Object. It is related with another object and it has certain attributes..
Org. Unit, Position and Person are different examples of objects each of which has its own attributes.. when you link them together it forms your org. strcture..
To depict very basic structure, you can use "Simple Maintenance" option.
You can use "Expert Mode" to define attributes of the objects..
And to do both activities at one place, you can do so through "Org. & Staffing" interface..

Is there a plan to implement remote sim feature in Bluetooth for the iPhone?

A lot of smartphones in the market implement remote sim profile (rsap) that let handsfree car systems to control remotely the sim card located in the phone. This feature uses external antenna of the vehicle and while connected reduces power consumption in the phone. Is there any reason to avoid this function in the bluetooth profile in the iPhone?

Consumption based planning in implementation ??

hi
Can some body explain me about the configuration setting in consumption based planning for manufacturing company ??
FOr manufacturing industry, they have production , and plant maintaienance, and depot plant.
For above business , what setting we have to in Consumplanning and MRP???
Thanks

Dear
Configurations for CBP as explained before.
a) Plant Parameters - t.Code : OMI8, when you execute this t.Code you will get several tabs like for ex.Number ranges, MRP Controllers etc... you need to maintain those are relevant
MRP Controllers, Number ranges, Available stock most of these tabs are mandatory configurations.
MRP Controllers - Defined and assigned to the plants, MRP Controllers are the planners who are responsible when it comes to the materials.
Number ranges : Planned orders, Purchase requesitions
Available Stock : whether stocks in transit, Blocked stock, Restricted stock are to be considered or not.
Planning Horizon - 100 days.. during MRP run those materials for which planning file entry is created and within the next 100days will be calculated for MRP.
b) MRP Group is not a mandatory config.
In case you need have configured new document type this can be entered in the "External Procurement per MRP Group" tab and this MRP group can be assigned to the material mster, based on this assignment the document type is picked up.
Each tab has its own significance, Please go through the configuration notes in SPRO you will get a better idea. let me know if you have futher clarifications.

Need GUI "plan of attack" suggestions

I'm looking for suggestions on going about a chess board gui. I want this to look nice, not cheaply done, since it will be used with several different side projects I am beginning to work on such as an correspondance chess client and notation converters.
I would prefer the pieces to be "drag and drop", all ideas are fine with me though. Resizeable is also desired.
I wasn't sure what the best way to go about it was as far as having many panels, or one big canvas, etc, etc. I haven't dealt with drag and drop with java before, so i'm really not sure what the best things to use are as far as the inner work or even the best type of images for it. Any suggestions will help.
A board functioning much like the one from games.yahoo.com/ch would be best.
It needs to be able to have custom positions built as well, and scroll through to earlier parts of the game, and possibly through different branches.
Any GUI experts out there know a good way of tackling this side of the project?

I'd probably make a GridLayout of panels. You can use a MouseListener
to tell which panel you're over for picking up/moving pieces. You can render
pieces as images on top of the panel, and drag/drop similarly to:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/2d/images/doublebuffering.html
When they drop a piece, you can ask the listener what cell you're over,
erase your floating image, and dump it into the center of that cell.
Of course, that's with 20 seconds of thought.

Workflow/implementation suggestions for stipple plugin.

I'm writing a photoshop plugin for doing stipple effects, and other related effects such as these ones:
http://methodart.blogspot.com/2006/11/see-larger-version-here.html
http://methodart.blogspot.com/2006/11/from-method-artist.html
http://methodart.blogspot.com/2006/11/while-trying-to-figure-out-ways-to.html
http://methodart.blogspot.com/2010/05/nuther-twist-on-idea-of-novel-means-of.html
I started out writing a simple image filter, but I think a better workflow would be to generate the paths and stipple positions, and then be able to stroke them with different brushes.
Ideally, I would like to do all the crunching in a plugin, which would simply serve up paths and dot positions, and then do the rest in script. This is the architecture I use in Maya and similar apps. Is this possible?
Apologies for the n00b-ish questions, under a crushing deadline to get these in showable beta form.
Any and all help greatly appreciated,
Kevin

The above is basically the approach ive been forced to take, I added some more specific inheritance into the plugins.. now I have types of plugins, with general and specific interfaces... methods in the general interface are generally common to most of the plugins, specifics are not. Thus I have
public interface GeneralPlugin extends Cloneable, Runnable {
// General plugin methods go here
public interface TypeAPlugin extends GeneralPlugin {
// TypeA specific methods
public abstract class AbstractPlugin implements GeneralPlugin {
// Generic implementation
public class MyPlugin extends AbstractPlugin implements TypeAPlugin {
// The specifics, and the actual plugin.
}This way, if someone is writing a plugin, and chooses NOT to use the generic implementation for basic plugin functions, they may just have "public class AnotherPlugin implements TypeAPlugin" and they will need to implement all the methods -- this while being a slight trade off, by forcing the extension operation, ultimately gets what I want done.
