Precalculation service - backward compatible?

Is the precalculation service backward compatible? E.g. Can I use precalc 7.10 latest patch with BW 3.5 or BW 7.0 system?
I would appreciate it if you could point to SAP literature that confirms / denies this.

This is the latest status for precalculation services as of today.
From a Windows server perspective, Precalculation 7.10 patch 801 works on Windows 2003 32 bit OS only. It is also supported on XP etc.
If you are on BW 3.5 , you must use precalculation 6.40
If you are on BW 7.0, you must use precalculation 7.10 patch 801 ( or higher if available ).
System Version     Object version used on the systems (ex. Queries, workbooks...)      Precal Version                  
SAPKW350##     3.5     Precalc Server 350     
SAPKW700##     3.5     Precalc Server 7.10 patch 801      * in that case, you should install the KW addon 3.x for SAPGUI 7.10
SAPKW700##     7.0     Precalc Server 7.10 patch 801

  • Integration services backward compatibility

    Hoping someone will know the answer to this.
    Is the version of Integration Services on Hyper-V 2012 R2 backwards compatible with Hyper-V 2012?
    The reason I ask is that we are in the process of moving VMs across Hyper-V clusters due to a company buyout, and we've found that networking does not work for guests that have been moved over to the new 2012 R2 cluster until IS is upgraded.
    If we could install the 2012 R2 version of IS on the guests while they are still on the 2012 host, it would make moving the machines easier.

    They make efforts for backward compatibility, as the OS has them built in and you will most likely run into a case of a VM OS being newer than the hypervisor.
    It is the forward compatibility that is not always up to par (as you notice).
    The Hyper-V Server generates the vmguest.iso dynamically each time it boots from its own binaries.  This ensures that the media on the Hyper-V Server is always at the same patch level of the Hyper-V Server.
    This ISO can always be copied off and used on a different Hyper-V Server if you want to upgrade prior to shutdown. (C:\Windows\system32)

  • The Bluetooth low energy protocol is not backward compatible with classic Bluetooth protocol. My iPhone 4s can not find my sonny in-dash player. However my iPhone 3GS does it. Very disappointed with this. Any idea how it can be fixed???

    Hello,
    You are correct, Blue tooth low engergy, BTLE.(only) devices are not backward compatible with Classic bluetooth and cannot connect.
    However the Apple 4S and above have Bluetooth 4.0 support.. Hardware wise it has bothClassic Bluetooth, like the 3GS, as well as Bluetooth Low Energy.  There is no good reason why your 4s cannot communicate to your Sony in-dash player using the Classic bluetooth that resides in the 4S.
    I know that this does not answer the why it does not work, but it should work. Do you have to somehow re-pair the new phone up to the player?  Not  knowing the model of the Sony it is hard to investigate.
    And I hate to ask but are you sure that the Bluetooth radio is on in the phone?

  • XCelsius 2008 is not backward compatible with ver 4.5

    CA Forum: Xcelsius and Live Office
    I tried opening a project that was done with ver 4.5 but it just said that "Crystal Xcelsius is unable to load this file. This file may be corrupt or may have features that cannot be supported by this version of Crystal Xcelsius." So i guess I probably have to recreate the project in the 2008 version to take advantage of the new features available. So I imported the excel datasheet used in the old project to a new project in Xcelsius 2008 and tried recreating the objects from scratch. I had started with an accordion menu and two list boxes and then I decided to export to swf to test. However, the result was disappointing. I could only see the two list boxes but not the accordion menu. There was a message saying "Initializing..." that stayed. Does this mean I have to recreate the excel data from scratch as well?

    X2008 is backward compatible with CX4.5.  But Jim is correct. There is a bug in X2008 which prevents it from opening some 4.5 models by double-clicking on the filename.  They can be opened from the File > Open menu.  This only affects opening the model.Due to the many changes between CX4.5 and X2008, the migration of old CX4.5 models is not clean.  Differences will be seen.  Most are cosmetic affecting only the look of the model.  But some tidy up, color changes and re-alignment work must be done.   There was no way to gain the benefits of X2008 and still keep CX4.5 models unchanged.Andy  

  • Thunderbolt/Firewire adapter backwards compatible?

    So I just bought a new 4TB G-Raid w/ Thunderbolt. Additionally, I bought a Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter, so I can connect my Firewire 800 equipped mac to the hard drive. IT DOESN'T WORK . I've read that they only work with a Thunderbolt equipped mac, to a female fw 800 cable. However, the deeper I've dug, I've heard that they are indeed backwards compatible (specifically with the G-tech drives), or that there can be software drivers that can make them backwards compatible. Anyone have any ideas??
    Speccs: 2010 mbp 17 inch. 2.53 ghz i5. 8gb RAM.

    Yes, I know that my mbp doesn't have a TB port, but I was hoping that the adapter would solve this problem, as it would change the connectivity to FW 800. I realize that is bottlenecking it, but I didn't have much choice because of the harddrive I had to buy. As for the eSata connections, I've never used that method. So I guess I wouldn't really know where to begin in considering that. However, the current drive I have now is:

    Thank you for your help! If all else fails, I'm just going to have to travel a bit further to buy a 4tb drive with FW, and return the one I just bought. Hopefully that's not the case....:/

  • Port number of Precalculation Service

    Dear SAP Expert
    For any security reason, I will implement a firewall program.
    I have a plan to close all the ports and will make some exception of the application which we use.
    One of the exeception is Precalculation service.
    So, Can you tell me what is port type (TCP or UDP or ... ) and its number ?
    Many thanks for your Info
    regards
    udinpetot

    Hi,
    Precalculation uses the port for RFC communication. It is port number '33xy' where 'xy' is the instance number of the connected backend system.
    I hope this helps.

  • Is The iPod Touch Backward Compatible With USB 1.1 Connections?

    Hi. I intend to get the iPod Touch soon. But, before I make the leap, I'd like to know whether the iPod Touch is backward compatible with my older USB 1.1 connections. Any help will be appreciated here. Thank you.

    Hello Castlegard,
    As mentioned, the Minimum System Requirements for the iPod Touch does specify USB 2.0, see the requirements here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1323
    While it is theoretically possible to sync over a USB 1.1 connection, your mileage may vary. Consider that USB 1.1 has a transfer rate of 12Mbit/sec, where USB 2.0 is 480Mbit/sec, so USB 2.0 is basically 40x faster. Transferring small files may succeed, but when you try to get iTunes to update or restore an iPod Touch, it will be trying to push a 300MB file (approximately) through a 12Mbit pipe. Trying to do updates or restore via USB 1.1 will often result in iTunes timing out before the process is complete.
    If I were to try to sync a 1.5GB movie over a USB 1.1 connection, I could probably go to downtown Sydney and have a nice dinner and attend a concert at the Sydney Opera House and still get back before the sync was complete. BTW, I live in California...
    If your computer is a desktop tower, upgrading to USB 2.0 is a relatively inexpensive proposition. If you are not a handy person with a phillips screwdriver or electical devices, most computer dealers or resellers will install for a nominal fee.

  • Is Compressor 4.1.2 backwards compatible with FCP7?

    Last year I transferred FCP7 to my 2013 MBP from my 2008 MBP and for whatever reason Compressor did not migrate over. I tried copying it and moving it but it will not work. So I figured I would buy the new Compressor but I want to check first to see if it's backwards compatible.

    Is there any interoperability? No. Can you export self-contained movies from FCP 7 and import them into Compressor/  Of course.
    Many experienced FCP editors advise against "transferring" or migrating any of the FCS applications. If you were the purchaser of the Final Cut Studio suite yourself, you should still have the install disks, from which you can easily install C 3.5. That's the recommendation for most reliable performance,

    It sounds as if we are looking at some strange malfunction.

    It seems that something is seriously wrong.  You may try the following (you may have tried/done some of them already) and see whether it helps (the following is a general list of things you may try when it is not in a specific file; 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences):
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer;
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy);

  • Urgent-Precalculation Service: Unable to create instance

    Gurus,
    I did install the SAP BW Precalculation Service on my desktop and did configure the Precalculation Service under SPRO->Administrate Precalculation Server. And after all that, whenever I started the Precalculation Server (via services) from the desktop the server at the BW end used to turn green. Until here everything was working a week back BUT! I got on to it again today and when I try and start the service on my desktop, I get the following error:
    <b>Application has generated an exception that could not be handled
    Process id=0xefc (3836), thread id=0X84c(2124).</b>
    And when I try to uninstall (hoping I could re-install), I cannot even uninstall the same instead I get a different error:
    <b>Unable to create an instance of the com.sap.bi.et.precalcultion.BExPrecWindowsService.ProjectInstaller installer type.->Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation --> Security error.</b>
    Can someone throw light on this please?

    Update: is it possible that security rights to the Essbase directory would affect the Query Designer? On a machine that it works on, I've noticed that the "xla" file updates each time it is accessed.

  • CC Apps NOT Backward compatible with Master Collection 6.0...WHY NOT?!!!!

    This is just horse doodoo. Adobe, you've already got us hooked and paying out the nose, so WHY do I have to save all of my files in an OLDER version (InDesign, for instance) when I'm working on them in Creative Cloud just so I can be able to open them with my MasterCollection6 I paid $3000+ for?
    I should NEVER see the message: "Cannot save because file was created with a newer version Creative Cloud..." when I am working with your latest NON-MONTHLY CS6 Master Collection Apps. It is a pain in the a$$ and slows down our workflow.
    PLEASE, either give your loyal Master Collection 6 customers updates that make our Apps compatible with Creative Cloud, or start making Creative Cloud Apps backward compatible with our 6.xx version!
    Stop trying to hold us hostage with your plans to monthly-revenue everything we already paid thousands for, please!

    New features in new software does sometimes mean that new files do not open in old software
    Microsoft also does this... the new DOCX documents will not open in the old Word 97 (and, in fact, I had to buy MS Office 2003 because MS Office 97 would not even install and run on Windows 7)

  • Why am I forced to update my OS because the Cloud desktop is not backward compatible with OS X 10.6.8? [was: Why do you do this...]

    Why do you do this... My mac is old pro running Version 10.6.8 and now I cant up load the creative cloud desk top app without updating the OS. Why cant these apps be backward compatible? I am perfectly happy with V 10.6.8 and my old pro..

    There is no requirement to move on from your old pro.  I still use mine.

  • Edge Animate 2014.1 not backwards compatible to 2014.0 documents

    This is a request to Adobe:
    Minor version revisions should not cause project incompatibilities in .an project files!
    The update to 2014.1 Edge Animate (October 2014) causes trouble in lab settings. My students using 2014.1 on their personal machines cannot open their work on 2014.0. All of our lab computers have 2014.0 installed. I can understand major revision incompatibilities, but minor revisions should be bug fixes and simple updates and should not affect projects created *yesterday*.
    This is endlessly frustrating, because we have to call upon our staff tech support any time a minor bug fix is put into place with CC.
    In terms of addressing this issue, how might someone go about updating a .an project file to be backwards-compatible? In Edge Animate, no option exists to save backwards.
    Thanks for any help on this issue.

    Composition created withe Edge 2014.1 is not backward compatible with  Edge 2014.0.  More info
    Changing the minimumCompatibleVersion will have undesirable side effects.
    For sharing with others you can create the composition in 2014.0  itself.
    FYI: You can install both Edge 2014.0  and Edge 2014.1 side by side on the same machine.

  • Can Framemaker 12 save files down in Framemaker 11 and 10 ? Is it backward compatible?

    Can Framemaker 12 save files down in Framemaker 11 and 10 ? Is it backward compatible?
    Thanks,

    > Times New Roman ... you’re probably using the Unicode version of it ...
    Port a legacy font from the FM7 machine to the FM12 machine, such as Type1 Times, and convert the document to that on the FM12 machine.
    This may not completely solve the problem, as FM8 and later, when opening a pre-FM8 document, appears to convert some things to Unicode code points (even to the point of synthesizing a Unicode encoding of a legacy font, see Re: Adding the Trademark symbol to a document). Saving back to MIF7 probably does not convert the code points back, and FM7 may well complain, or crash, or something.
    If the problem is limited to certain special characters, like ™, there may be work-arounds, like invoking them only as Variables.
    This Unicode border between FM7.2 and FM8 may prove to be one-way for many documents, rather like the spikes at the exit of rental car lots. Do not back up. Extreme document damage may result.
