Pros and cons for having multiple AP3 libraries?

Hi,
Since I'm shooting in RAW, my Aperture 3 library is increasing in size quite fast. It's up to 78GB now (including my old iPhoto library) and I have just 120GB available on my MacBook Pro disk now.
I'm not too happy about moving away from RAW to JPEG, so maybe I should look into splitting my AP3 library into two or three libraries? The biggest downside I can see is that I'm no longer able to search for, e.g., "all pictures taken in this area with this lens" since the pictures may be split over several libraries.
Any other ideas? I'd prefer not having AP3 on an external drive since it's my laptop and I move it around alot.

The biggest Con is that each Library is discrete and cannot be searched from another.
Sooner or later you're going to have to put a Library (or two) on an external drive. The math is pretty irresistible I have a couple of portable drives - not much bigger than a cigarette packet and bus powered.

Pros and Cons for single sales organization and multiple sales organization

Hi!
Does anybody have a good data of Pros and Cons for Single Sales Organization vs. Multiple Sales Organization.
Thank you!

Hi,
Actuall it all depends on the business process.
I will explain the answer to you through a practical example
like Ford, it has sales and services all across globe.
It is not advisable to manage all of its activities under only one sales organization, say Ford Inc.
So what it does is de-centralises the whole process according to the country, region so that the whole process is divided and hence can be managed more effeciently.
Hope this helps you in understanding the basics.
One sales org always provides you with very less data to update and maintain, while many sales org makes the scenario more complex.
One sales org always gives you the flexibility to bring any changes to the current scenario, while in multiple sales org to bring a change its a tiresome job.
These are some of the advantages and disadvantages of one to many sales org.

Siddharth.

Pros and cons for sharing ASM home

Hello,
Had a question on RAC with ASM...the ASM home is using the DB home...i mean ASM is sharing DB home...how bad can this be ???...i do not have a ASM home or it was never created...So how can this be resolved...or can i still use the db home for my ASM home??? what are the pros and cons for this ??

So you are telling me that, if this 3 node RAC
cluster which only have 1 database should be
fine..and what about when its come to patching ???
any big problems on that ???If the ASM needs to be patched, the database probably needs to come down. If the database needs to be patched, the database probably needs to come down.
These are true whether the ASM is in the same home or not.
The challenge comes when you have 2 or more databases (2 DB instances). If the ASM goes down for patching, both DBs probably come down.
But if only one DB needs to be patched, and the Home is ALSO the ASM Home, both DBs come down.
So separating ASM home and DB home is irrelevant when one DB is used, but is very relevant when multiple DBs are used and each DB has it's own ORACLE_HOME.

Pros and cons for posing video to youtube for use in iWeb

Hello
Can someone explain the pros and cons of posting video to YouTube for use in an iWeb website instead of iDisk?
Thanks
Carl

Carl ~ Some of the following points have already been mentioned above, but anyway...
Pros for posting videos to YouTube are:
Viewers of your video wouldn't be using up your limited .Mac data transfer allowance.
Once your site is published, if subsequently you have to do a +Publish All+ from iWeb, you wouldn't be uploading your video yet again to .Mac ~ saving time and usage of your limited .Mac data transfer allowance.
YouTube videos have a wide audience and popular features such as ratings, playlists, comments, etc.
Cons for posting videos to YouTube are:
Limitations on size and quality of videos and their unappealing presentation style. For example, compare YouTube's presentation style and limited size options with that of a +.Mac Web Gallery+:
http://gallery.mac.com/emily_parker#100471
Perhaps a compromise would be to post your videos to YouTube (for the publicity) and link from your iWeb site to a +.Mac Web Gallery+ (for its elegance and avoidance of iWeb re-publishing it.)

Pros & Cons for having multiple AS for the same VRF

Hi,
I just wonder if there is any added value of having mutiple private AS numbers for a single VRF, compared to the usual practise of having one single AS for the entire enterprise network of a give customer. The solution provider is setting a requirement for having 3 AS numbers to connect to the MPLS IP-VPN, one AS for Primary Data Center, and one for Disaster Recovery Center and one for all the 1,000+ branaches.
Appreciate your input.
Sam

Hi,
I don't see any benefit for using three different AS number. Only benefit is we need not to use as-override (or allowas-in)
if having three different AS.
I worked for on Provider who was not much strong in processes and was not having automated tool to configure customer links, i mean everything was manual. I see many times that though customer requested to use as-ovveride at provider link
people generally forget to configure the same and at time of testing the usual fault was missing this command at provider end.
But if your provider is standard ( in terms of processes) then You can use only one AS number. This is what i experienced. technically i dont see much benefit in having three different AS.

Pros and Cons for your Iphone

Please use this thread to point out what you like/dislike about your new iphone. Apple Engineers frequently browse through these forums to see what they can do to improve their line of products. Let's tell them exactly what's on our minds. I'll start with the bad.
Cons:
The iPhone is all the hype Apple has created it to be but not at all a smartphone. Here are some basic features that the Iphone doesn't have that I believe should be added to the iPhone (via software update) considering that most, if not all, smartphone/pdas include it.
No Cut and Paste
No Highlighting
No Search Window for "Contacts"
No Way to send one SMS to multiple recipients
No way to update your "Contacts" while on a phone call (I can't add a phone number while on phone call)
No Excel or Word programs. (Every professional uses these programs)
No Cursor Arrows (to navigate through a reply window for emails-magnifying glass is nice but the small text window allowed makes it very difficult to move around)
I was under the impression that the iphone was to be a replacement or a competitor to similar PDA's on the market but without the basic features listed above, it comes well short of being smart. A cool dumb jock with some fancy tricks is more like it. Now don't get me wrong, I'm not here to bash Apple by any means...I have two iPods, two Macs and now my iphone at home so I am definately a dedicated Apple customer and will continue to be so. I am simply voicing my concerns because frankly I expected much much more from Apple and Steve Jobs.
The following below features would be nice as well (but I could wait till next year:
Video Recording, flash and zoom for the camera
Full youtube access
Memory Upgrade availability (memory card) or more memory
Option to upgrade to a better battery not a built in battery
Option to be able to choose what's in your homepage
Pros:
I can't believe how Apple is doing some of the technology that I'm actually seeing especially in a handheld. I love the ease of use. I love the backlight...even with low backlighting it's trully amazing how the colors are displayed. I have music videos loaded on my iphone and I am just in awe of the clarity and quality. The design, I feel, is second to none to any phone on the market today or in the past. I also like the fact that some accessories of the iPod and iPhone are interchangeable. The customer service at the Apple Store (Roosevelt Field Long Island, NY) was absolutely flawless. The lines, if any, went so smoothly. The staff answered everyone all of my questions. The whole buying process was very organized. I was in and out of the store in no more than 10 min. I expected far far worse with the high demand and excitement about last Friday's launch.
In Conclusion:
I think the iPhone comes short to my old Pocket Pc (Cingular 8525) as far as practical functions out of the box. The iPhone is far cooler than my 8525 but if I had a choice I would have stayed with my 8525 until Apple added the basic features I stated above. If I'm coming from a standard phone the iPhone blows it away but if I'm transitioning from a smart phone, the iPhone isn't yet in the same league. It's only been a week with my iphone so I'm sure they'll be more good and bad that I still need to discover. At this point I would say pocket pc "1" and iPhone ".5". If Apple adds my above listed basic features than I would have to place the iPhone over the pocket pc all the way!!! I'm not worried though...if Apple doesn't add those features I'm sure a third party company will. I hope you guys are reading;)

Pros and cons for using single/multiple database

hi
could anyone tell me in which senario we can use multiple databases and advantages and disadvantages using multiple databases over single database (with different tablespace)
thaks in advance
hari

depending on your situation you can probably think of different answers. You ask for a 'general' rule of thumb... well, some things that pop into my mind:
- different usage by applications. e.g. you have a transactional application storing and modifying data and you also want to do analytics. You might want to build a seperate database/datawarehouse that you can use for analytics. by splitting it up you can tune both databases to work best with the application using it.
- sensitive data and many different users. e.g. the marketing department does not need to have access to the finance department's data (salaries, etc). give each department a separate database and only load the data needed/give access to the data needed.
Just some thoughts, you can think of more when confronted with a certain situation.

Pros and cons of having OSX Snow leopard and OSX Lion on the same Computer

Disclaimer : I am not an expert,my experience with Computers is trial and catastrophic errors.
If one owns an early Intel Mac say 2009 and want to have OSX Lion and or Snow Leopard on a partitioned HD.My setup is typical I use my Bundled DVD and clean format HD ,intall Snow Leopard ,update all and then go to App store download Lion and then you chose your set up .
Most would upgrade to lion by installing on top of snow leapard.
I chose to install lion alone on a partition.
Today I was talking to Apple about an issue with accessing repair and disk permissions on an encrypted volume in Lion recovery Disk Utilities usually greyed out because one must turn off File Vault then go to Lion Recovery Disk Utilities by Start up ,press options the 2 partitioned volumes 1 Lion 2 Snow Leopard 3rd volume Lion recovery Disk Utilities.
,If File Vault is on it will not be there but when one selects volume 1 Lion and Command and R Lion recovery Disk Utilities appears but Lion Volumeo Recovery Disk Utilities will be greyed out you go tho unmount and it will prompt you for a Lion Password.
While doing this and repairing I encounted a Storage can not be repaired Error in red, Apple told me that Lion Recovery Disk Utilities related issues are not supported if one has Snow Leoopard and Lion on a partitoned HD.
So one must upgrade on top of SnowLeaopard or use the Snow Leopard Bundled DVD to erase the volume 2 SnowLeopard ,then all will be well !
So what happens with Mountain Lion when using Snow Leopard Macs ?
Again Disclaimer : I am not an expert and my experience with Computers is trial and catastrophic errors.

Pros and Cons for replacing the default user template?

Hi,
since I've installed a new server, I don't want to make any mistake,
If I replace the default user template (*.iproj) by my own, is it really a bad idea?
Am I better modifying the existing one (.plist) even if it is more work?
Thanks

If I replace the default user template (*.iproj) by my own, is it really a bad idea?
While you can modify the default User Template, it is not a recommended practice to do so. Since you are managing clients via MCX, anything that you set in WGM for user preferences will be added to the user's profile at login. If you have a need for some specific application preferences that need to be added for users, configure the application on a workstation as a local user and then import the .plist into WGM. Anything else -folders or files- that an application creates in the local user prefs folders, that may be needed, can usually be placed in the /Library/Preferences, /Library/Application Support, and /Library/Managed Preferences folders on the clients so that users have access to them.

Pros and Cons not determining / having a Delivery Plant in Sales Order?

Hi Mates
Here I have come-up with one more (weired?) requirement from my client.
We have two plants manufacturing same product and supplying to all customers (some time in same sales order with two different line items).
At the timeof creating a sales order, marketing does't know from which plant the material will move and hence they don't want to fill the Delivering Plant field (VBRP-BUKRS at Shipping tab) for each Item.
They are insisting me to map it as above though I had explained about various pros and cons for not determining a mandatory delivery plant
in sales order like the requirements and shipping stuff.
Yet, yet they want this.
Has anyone come across this kind of requirement before? What best you had done for that?
Can I ask you what are the Pros and cons on not having a Delivery Plant at Sales Order level?
what if I could determine it Delivery level?
Any comments, suggestions, replies and advices are taken humbly.
Cheers
Ajay Kumar Veeranki

Dear Mahulenka
Thanks a lot for the reply. It do have helped me.
Yest it is VBAP-WERKS (typo error ).
Infact I had given the same solution for the issue.
Interstingly, they are insisting on a better solution fit for their requirement. Anyway shall 'highlight' the points again to them try to get it solved
Just wondering has anyone faced the same situation before.
Thanks again for the reply and good luck

Same SID for QA & Prd systems - pros and cons?

We have the foll systems:
1. Enterprise Portal 7.0
2. NWDI 7.0
3. NW 7.0 (with XECO - Ecommerce)
4. TREX 7.1
5. Content Server 6.40
6. ECC 6.0
Currently the QA and Prd systems have the same SID and system/instance no, although they are on different hosts.
We would like to know what are the long term pros and cons for keeping the QA and Prd SIDs the same for all systems.
We are already making a list, so thought we might as well get more inputs from the community too.
We already have this arrangement for the past 3 months and have not faced any major issues.
A couple of cons though:
1. Cannot use solman as it cannot distinguish between the diff servers with same SID
2. ABAP transports from QA to Prd have to be manually done (cannot use STMS)
Thanks
Prasad

Hi Manoj,
Changing the SID of java systems is a very tedious procedure. Hom sys copy is just a part of the SID change...there are a whole lot of configs to be done after that...the task is eq to a new setup of systems
For once, the efforts put in are huge..you can see there are 5 systems..besides, it will involve coordination from all teams - basis, development, functional, project management.
Here are a few advantages that we know of:
1. No efforts reqd to change back to original SID
2. During disaster recovery, we just have to restore the production database on QA and change the hostname, whereas its not so in case of having diff SIDs
3. For end-users this will be transparent because they will be using the hostname in the URL which is anyways different
We have the same SIDs for the past 3 months and have not seen major issues, but we also would like to know from the long term perspective if there are any risks that we have not foreseen...hence we seek help from the community.
Hope its clear now
Thanks for your response
Prasad

Pros and Cons of Application Isolation/Multiple server instances?

Hi. I'm setting a new server using ColdFusion Enterprise with Apache to migrate several web application from and old server with ColdFusion 7 server. I'm currently doing research regarding multiple server instances in order to have a separate server for production apps and another for development apps (see http://help.adobe.com/en_US/ColdFusion/10.0/Admin/WSc3ff6d0ea77859461172e0811cbf363c31-7ff 5.html and https://wikidocs.adobe.com/wiki/display/coldfusionen/Using+Multiple+Server+Instanceshttp:/ /). In addition, I'm also doing research regarding application isolation to have separate production application in separate servers. I'm trying to identify all pros and cons for both "Application Isolation" and "Multiple Server Instances" to make a decision on whether I will proceed in applying these techniques. I have found several links that talk about some of the advantages but have not been able to find anything regarding possible disadvantages. Have anyone in this forum has used any of the techniques, and can provide more information/experiences regarding the pros and cons?

Hi Ricardo_Lorenzo,
Whether to go for Multiserver instances or Single server, is totally a user requirement based decison. If a user has Single website, or multiple websites (of the same nature, in terms of functionality), usually the part of same domain, then they would go for Single sever installation. One single instance will handle the requests from all the websites (if there are multiple). There would not be a clustering/failover setup within ColdFusion and can use the ColdFusion Standard or Enterprise version.
On the other hand, if a user has multiple websites, all with different functionality and have multiple applications (may or may not) running, then they can go for Multiserver installation. Each website can be configured with individual instances. Clustering can be done within ColdFusion if needed. One would need an Enterprise license of ColdFusion for the same.
Hope this helps.

Anit Kumar

Pros and cons of using email sending package in oracle 8.1.6

hi ,
i would like to know the advantages /disadvantages of using email sending package from oracle 8.1.6
compared to sending the same using say perl or php.
iam developing a site in php/oracle8.1.6 , in which iam supposed to create a payement module.whenever a user
register(for free trial or subscribing the site) i'll have to send him a welcoming mail.In addition to this iam also supposed to find out wether subscribers are paying cash at right time and if not send them reminder mails and other for related scenarios . i can do the same in Perl or PHP.but if iam not gaining much(say based on server performance or load) then i think i can go ahead with oracle package. when i tested it i found that its slow . what about the load that it may cause for the server (ours is linux ).
please do give inputs on this

Hi Ravi,
Thanks for your reply.
But I am specifically looking at pros and cons for web services. So the thread which you passed to me won't help.
