Quarterly CPU question from a rookie

Question qualifier: I am not a trained or experienced DBA, I have however been thrown under the Oracle bus to set up a Patch and Vulnerability Management program for the Oracle servers.
Question: Are the quarterly CPUs cummulative? In other words, does each quarterly CPU include the patches from the previous quarterly CPU?
If not, I would like to clarify theire installation order.
The CPUs MUST BE installed in the released sequence to make sure that all vulnerabilities are covered.
a. This is correct. The patches have to be installed in the released order.
b. This is the official position, but in reality it is not that strict.
c. It doesn't matter as long as all the patched are applied.
d. What is a CPU?
I thank everyone in advance for your help.
Jonathan

All these questions are answered in Note 360470.1 (FAQ)
Basically, CPU patches are security patches likes the ones released by other vendors sent at predefined intervals to contain a list of fixes based on bugs or issues found. They are usually not cumulative (the answer depends on which Oracle product you are referring to).
About the official position?.. Treat as strongly recommended.
CPU = Critical Patch Update

Questions from a rookie about event structures

Hello,
I am currently scheduled for Labview classes next month,
so I want to apologize in advance for "dumb questions". I have created
a program that is starting
to be a CPU resource hog. The majority of my program is inside a while
loop so that the program will "react" to changes in controls, etc. I am
assuming that
if I incorporate "event structures" in my program that my program will
not be a resource hog. Is the use of event structures the correct
way to go? If using
event structures is the correct way to go, what is the best way to
learn how to incorporate "event structures"? I am assuming that
the examples in Labview will show me how. Are there any good reading
materials about event structures?
Regards,
Kaspar

To fix the CPU resource issue, you need to place a small wait statement in your loop. It will solve two problems:
Slow down the loop (you don't need to check for UI changes more that 10x/second)
It will allow other, parallel tasks a chance to run after each iteration. Without a wait, it will hog the CPU for 55ms before releasing control.
If your loop currently spins one million times a second and you would place a 1ms wait, the CPU would go from 100% to 0.1%!
The event structure is a fantastic tool to solve most UI issues and it makes the diagram automatically simpler, more self-documenting and easier to read. Have a look at some of the examples that ship with LabVIEW.
The event structure is easy to learn, so dive right in. Read the online help for some important considerations. As a rule of thumb you should stick to a single event structure per diagram.

Questions from a Rookie about JSP and JEE

Hello friends. I've just started to learn JEE and JSP technologies. I have some experience with .Net and PHP; but just found time to learn JSP. I have developed a simple Web application by using those technologies. And I want to deploy those codes to the web. I have googled. But could not find an explanatory tutorial about this topic.
My second Question is:
I am using Netbeans 6 Beta 2 and I am connecting to a Database by using a function let's say something called connectDb() with SSH;. How can I bind a Data table with this function. (Netbeans have a buildin component for binding to a component to db but does not support SSH)
Thanx in advance. I would appreciate any kind of help.

Very simple question from a rookie

Hi,
I don't know how sequences work in OWB.
I have a very simple mapping:
1 (not empty) source table, 1 (empty) target table, 1 sequence.
Source and destination are connected.
The sequence.nextval is connected to the primary key. sequence.currval is not connected.
When I run the debug mode an error occurs: "Could not find data for all sources and target ...". The "Test Data" shows that OWB has not found data for the sequence.
Help!

I use 10gR2 and OWB 10.2
The tables and the sequence are deployed. They are in the database.
There's something strange about this:
Starting ("Start...") works.
The debugging does not work.
Problem nearly solved ...

Need recommend to build MB + CPU + VGA ....a question from Vietnam

1st, sry my E is not good...
My job is working with 60% Pr 40% Ae (full HD)
I need recommend to help me choose 3 option
CPU + MB (in VN they same price)
1.   i7 950 + X58
2.   i7 2600 + p8z68
3.   2xE5520 + asus Z8NA (2nd)
VGA (in VN they same price)
1.   GTX 570
2.   Nivida Quadro 1800 (because quadro 2000,3800,4800.. all supported is very difficult to buy it in VN) Quadro1800 can be GPU hacked ? (2nd)
My PSU 750W
RAM DDR3 Gskill buss 1333 4x4gb
a question from Vietnam, need to help so much
Thanks alot
Waitting for Harm recommend

I concur with Harm's recommendation. The Quadro 1800 is obsolete: It is based on the equally-obsolete GeForce 9600 GT but with only a 192-bit memory bus instead of a 256-bit memory bus. As such, the only memory configuration that was available on the Quadro 1800 was 768MB. Unfortunately, Premiere Pro CS5 requires a minimum of 765MB of free, unused graphics memory just to even enable GPU accelerated mode at all even with the hack. But since Windows itself eats up some of that 768MB, you'd be left with less than 750MB of free, unused graphics RAM with that Quadro 1800. As a result, Premiere Pro CS5 will be stuck in software-only mode even with the hack if you have the Quadro 1800 as the primary card.

[solved] One more conky question (convert cpu temp from C to F)

Okay, one more and then conky is finished I want to convert my cpu temp from C to F because it's just easier to understand for me, I am an american ... I've tried various ways I've found on these forums, but none of them seem to work, here's my cpu temp conky script:
${execi 1200 echo $(($(cat /sys/bus/pci/drivers/k10temp/0000:00:18.3/temp1_input) / 1000)) C}
Last edited by Mr_ED-horsey (2011-07-21 01:26:16)

What's the output of
cat /sys/bus/pci/drivers/k10temp/0000:00:18.3/temp1_input
? It should read about 55 C.
I have no idea how the sensors work, I've never used them, but you can doublecheck the conversion using just about anything, even google: http://www.google.pl/search?q=55+c+in+f … =firefox-a

11i Patching - Patch Wizard and Quarterly CPU's

I have been tasked with applying Oracle's quarterly CPU's to our 11.5.10 CU2 environment.
I have some experience applying patches via adpatch etc. but have never tried to apply a CPU before.
My experience so far has been a lot of reading, checking pre-reqs which lead to more pre-reqs, checking to see if they've been applied or not...
Seems to be a lot of manual checking and prone to error if something is missed.
I have done a little bit of work to try and start using Patch Wizard (so far applying patch to install 'Support' filter so I can at least verify I meet Extended Support requirements).
At any rate the real question here is can I use Patch Wizard to help me apply the oracle CPU's by verifying my config and providing me a list of patches that need to be applied?
Or can I not really do that but rather just get an up to date list based on when I submit my update request? Still trying to learn what all Patch Wizard can do for me.

Why can't I post a question from my new system?

Hello All:
I was just trying to post a question from my new mbp but it wouldn't allow me to do anything. It continually gave me a message highlighted in 'red' that i was;t allowed to modify or post anything. I've been asking questions for quite a while and have never seen this. I also happen to have my older bmp, also logged onto the 'Apple Discussions' site, open beside me. Can anyone explain this to me please? BTW, my new system obviously has Yosemite on it while my older bmp has Lion. Thanks in advance, to all those who respond.

ChitlinsCC, I'm adding your reloaders to my article on how to make using ASC easier.
Here is my ASC work flow...
1) I login.
2) Block the automatic 30 minute logout.
     Unless you do something every thirty minutes you get logged out. The forum software waits to tell you this as long as it can to keep you in suspense ;-) . Filling out a reply is the exception to the thirty minute window.
        Start an auto reloader.
Safari = SafariTabReloader
Firefox = ReloadEvery: "Reload web pages automatically"
Others = Reloaders | Cerberus - Support Center
You need to pick a page that will reload over time without stalling out. It's ASC. I've found my profile display the best to use. I get my Profile page after some logins. It's ASC. Change rccharles to your apple id.
https://discussions.apple.com/people/rccharles?view=discussions
Reply technique
Open a new browser window. Pick some discussion. Open a reply window. As long as this reply window is open, you will stay logged in. The 30 minute times is reset as needed by the ASC software.
3) I open another window to do my normal ASC browsing.
4) I have a FireFox bookmark to goto the discussions that I have participated in. I've modified it to add on the content stuff.
         turingtest2 recommends. Change rccharles to your apple id:
https://discussions.apple.com/people/rccharles/content?filterID=participated~obj ecttype~objecttype%5Bthread%5D
5) Use turingtest2's generated links with the /content suffix as browser bookmark to the ASC discussions:
Site map of Communities and Categories
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2463
6) Adjust the ASC web page layout.
For FireFox
I run with Hiroto's modification to user content. This is the only way these forums are readable for me. How to adjust the format and layout of ASC Web Pages:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-7501
For Safari
"ASCPowerTools is a Safari Extension designed to give more control"
http://www.etresoft.com/ascpowertools
7) Read and answer my old posts. I kind of memorize the time I last posted. ( It's way bad that apple eliminated the last poster to a thread. )
8) I use tabbed browsering. From a list of discussions, hold down the command key then click on the link. You get two tabs this way. The original window will keep where you have been.

HT201272 I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there are less movies available there than there are in my i-Tunes account. I've done some looking around at questions from others, but haven't found an answer that works for me.

I have recently picked up an Apple TV. When I go to the movies tab, there less movies available there than what is available in my i-Tunes library. I have 38 movies showing in my library but only 23 are showing in the Movies tab on the Apple TV. After researching this a little, there are only 23 movies showing under Purchased in the Quicklinks of my i-Tunes account. The majority of my collection are digital copy downloads that came from DVD purchases. Some of the missing movies were added in the past couple of months, the rest are a year-or-so old. I have done some looking around at questions from others, but I have not found an answer that will fix my situation. How do I update my library to get ALL of my movies to reflect that they were "Purchased"(as it says they were in their Properties)?

The pros and cons of to CC or not to CC have been done to death
Its a fact the CC model will work for some, especially newbies and small businesses.
The risks associated with the CC model have been well documented.
For long term users of CS perpetuals its generally a large hike up in cost compared to the upgrade system.
Then there are the....... Adobe can rot it hell...... group who will never subscribe
To each their own, you do the math to suit your cashflow whatever that is and then make an informed decision
To those on the CC model, I'd like to offer some practical advice.........do not allow automatic updates.........make regular backups............develop an exit strategy of alternatives for when you can no longer afford the subscription costs............never ever assume that the Adobe update is bug free
Enjoy your cloud

Thank you for that post, and the advice. I just happen to be one of those who it does work for. I've been around long enough to know that CC isn't going to work for everyone(the large publishing/radio/web company I work for isn't upgrading to CC because of the costs involved). But it does for me as I potentially venture out into the full-time freelancing world and away from the more structured big office environment. I can't make decisions based on what is best for anyone else, or what will hurt or help Adobe. Just what affects me, and that's all.

Any help is highly appreciated.Yes but what kind of help do you expect to get? What kind of help do you think is possible through something as cold and distant as a forum, where you clearly require personal guidance and tutoring?
If you are going to answer "example code", I should warn you that the answers are not going to be to your liking.
