Query regarding server sizing

HI Everyone
If anybody can tell me the url or if anyone can send me the <b>document regarding Server Sizing on AIX5.2 server</b> it would be really helpful.
Points will be awarded for helpful answers.
Regards
Rajeev.

Dear Rajeev,
To avoid problems with undersized/oversized hardware, please make a difference between minimum product requirements, which are usually described in the product availability matrix or the installation guide, and the runtime requirements related to concrete load usage (number of concurrent users, size of objects and so on).
It is highly recommended not to only consider the minimum hardware requirements recommendation, but to as early as possible determine the runtime requirements by using the
SAP Quick Sizer http://service.sap.com/quicksizer and the documents which are provided under http://service.sap.com/sizing -> Sizing Guidelines.
Best regards,

Query regarding Crystal Reports Server

Hi,
I am new to Crystal Reports.
I have created a couple of .rpt files using CR2008 and I am loading these report files in my aspx pages using CrystalReportViewer control.
I am planning to host my webApp on IIS in production environment. Maximum simultaneous/concurrent connections to my reports would be 1 or 2.
My question is:
1. Do I need Crystal Reports Server in this scenario?
2. In future if the number of concurrent users to report increases then do I need to go for Crystal Reports Server? Will just buying and installing the Crystal reports server on production server work? or will I have to do some configuration or some other changes in the existing deployed reports? OR Will I have to deploy my existing reports on Crystal Report Server again?
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Manish

Query regarding the Node manager configuration(WLS and OAM Managed server)

Query regarding the Node manager configuration(WLS and OAM Managed server):
1) In the nodemanager.properties I have added the ListenAddress:myMachineName and ListenPort: 5556
My setup : One physical Linux machine(myMachineName) has : WLS admin server, managed server(OAM 11G) and nodemanager.No clustered environment.
2) nodemanager.log has the following exception when I start the oam_server1 using EM(Enterprise Manager11g):
Mar 23 2012 1:39:55 AM> <SEVERE> <Fatal error in node manager server>
java.net.BindException: Address already in use

Default port on which node manager listen for requests is localhost:5556.I have changed it to point to my machine. The port should be of WLS admin server or it should be the managed server port?
3) I have started the NodeManager using the startNodeManager.sh script.
4) The admin server port is 7001 and the oam managed server port is 14100.
Any inputs on what might be wrong in the setup will be helpful.Thanks !

By using netstat -anp|grep 5556 you can check which process on your machine is using the 5556 port.

Oracle Server Sizing

Hello.
I'm looking for some advice on server sizing.
I currently work a small/medium sizing manufacturing company. We are currently using a mix of different versions of FoxPro (cringe) and are in the process of planning an upgrade path to Oracle.
We have about 10-15gb of corporate data in foxpro tables and have roughly 50 users, probably only 15-30 concurrently accessing data at any given point during the day.
We have 3 data entry staff who would do the bulk of the transactions, the remaining users sporadically query the data sporadically throughout the day.
It's very hard for me to determine querires per minute though, but I would guess it's easily under 500 per minute (that's at least double what I really think it is)
I am hoping to run Oracle 10g Standard Edition on Linux or Windows.
Can anybody offer me some advice to what type of hardware I will require?
I am hoping to be able to run:
Single P4 or AMD64 in the 3GHz+ range
2Gb+ RAM
RAID 5, 3 x 36GB, 15000RPM disks (possibly 1 online spare)
We aren't a big company, so Oracle licensing cost is a major factor as to which direction we plan for - a multi processor version of Oracle 10g is many times more expensive than a single processor edition.
What hardware would you recommend?

You're probably more in the 10g Standard Edition One camp ($5,000 per CPU for a perpetual license) than just a plain Standard Edition ($15,000 per CPU for a perpetual license) since you're not going to be using servers that support more than 2 CPU's.
Without knowing more about exactly how expensive the queries are (i.e. whether you have users periodically looking up the list of widgets that go into a particular product or whether you have users looking through years of past history, aggregating sales by quarter, by region, and by 14 other dimensions), I'd wager that a single CPU box with 2 GB of RAM would be more than enough. If you anticipate growing quickly in the next few years, it might make sense to buy a machine that was capable of running 2 CPU's with only 1 installed right now.

DMS server sizing calculation

HI Gurus,
My client has given that Finance department is generating documents around 20 GB per month (includes all types of format) now i have to create the Server sizing for this 20 GB kindly help on how to proceed. Is there is any standard calculation for this.
Regards
Kannan

Recommended approach for managing Finance documents is SAP Archivelink solution(refer previous posts in forum).
Content server sizing is a separate exercise that you need to carry out in conjunction with your Basis team and the customer. Capture details along parameters like Office/Plant from where docs would be accessed, the available network bandwidth,number of users,number of transactions per day,maximum size of a single file,number of documents generated/day that would be uploaded and the growth plan for the next 3 years.Once done,the Basis team will provide you with details like CPU,RAM,OS,bandwidth and hard disk space that would be needed from which the cost can be calculated.

Query regarding App V Deployment - (Deploying DriverMSI in App - V)

Hi All,
This is my query regarding deployment of a driver MSI using App V. I have tried sequencing "NMap software" which has Kernel driver as service. I have separated the Kernel driver and wrapped in an MSI and tried deploying the Kernel Driver MSI using
the DeploymentConfig.xml file but its not happening.
I have tried writing script in DeploymentConfig.xml in AddPackage Tag as shown in the below commands where I have added driver MSI in sequenced package, and tried deploying the DeploymentConfig.xml in powershell during Add-Package event but the driver
MSI is not getting installed in Client machine.
<AddPackage>
        <Path>msiexec.exe</Path>
        <Arguments>/i Nmap_KernelDriver.msi /qb /l*v c:\windows\system32\LogFiles\Install_Nmap.log</Arguments>
        <Wait RollbackOnError="true" Timeout="30"/>
      </AddPackage>
      <RemovePackage>
        <Path>msiexec.exe</Path>
        <Arguments>/x {4BAB3E93-716E-4E18-90F0-1DA3876CBEB6} /qn</Arguments>
        <Wait RollbackOnError="false" Timeout="60"/>
      </RemovePackage>
    </MachineScripts>
The other way I have tried is writing a vbscript for installing the driver MSI, added the vbs in sequenced package and called the same in DeploymentConfig.xml but no luck.Please find the command below.
<!--
    <MachineScripts>
      <PublishPackage>
        <Path>wscript.exe</Path>
        <Arguments>[{AppVPackageRoot}]\..\Scripts\NMap_Driver_Install.vbs -guid 7c21d1e9-0fc4-4e56-b7bf-49e54d6e523f -name Insecure_Nmap_6.4_APPV</Arguments>
        <Wait RollbackOnError="true" Timeout="30"/>
      </PublishPackage>
      <UnpublishPackage>
        <Path>\\server\share\barfoo.exe</Path>
        <Arguments>-WithArgs</Arguments>
        <Wait RollbackOnError="false" Timeout="30"/>
      </UnpublishPackage>
Please suggest any method to make this successful or kindly let me know if there is any mistake in the script.
Thanks in advance,
Vivek V

Hi Nicke,
These are the following methods and steps that I have performed for installing Driver MSi.
Method 1:
1. Included the driver MSI in Package Files Tab in sequencer and called the same MSI in DeploymentConfig.xml using the below script.
<AddPackage>
        <Path>msiexec.exe</Path>
        <Arguments>/i Nmap_KernelDriver.msi /qb /l*v c:\windows\system32\LogFiles\Install_Nmap.log</Arguments>
        <Wait RollbackOnError="true" Timeout="30"/>
      </AddPackage>
      <RemovePackage>
        <Path>msiexec.exe</Path>
        <Arguments>/x {4BAB3E93-716E-4E18-90F0-1DA3876CBEB6} /qn</Arguments>
        <Wait RollbackOnError="false" Timeout="60"/>
      </RemovePackage>
    </MachineScripts>
2. After the above steps, deployed the AppV package along with DeploymentConfig.xml in App V Client using the commands mentioned below.
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Unrestricted
Import-module Appvclient
Set-AppVClientConfiguration -EnablePackageScripts 1
Add-AppvClientPackage -Path "Path of the AppV file" -DynamicDeploymentConfig "Path of DeploymentConfig.xml"
after trying the above steps the driver MSI is not getting installed.
Method 2:
1. Included the driver MSI and a VBS file(VBS contains script for calling the driverMSI)in Package Files tab in sequencer. Commandlines has been provided calling the vbs file in DeploymetConfig.xml as mentioned below.
<!--
    <MachineScripts>
      <PublishPackage>
        <Path>wscript.exe</Path>
        <Arguments>[{AppVPackageRoot}]\..\Scripts\NMap_Driver_Install.vbs -guid 7c21d1e9-0fc4-4e56-b7bf-49e54d6e523f -name Insecure_Nmap_6.4_APPV</Arguments>
        <Wait RollbackOnError="true" Timeout="30"/>
      </PublishPackage>
      <UnpublishPackage>
        <Path>\\server\share\barfoo.exe</Path>
        <Arguments>-WithArgs</Arguments>
        <Wait RollbackOnError="false" Timeout="30"/>
      </UnpublishPackage>
2. after executing the above steps, tried deploying the AppV file along with DeploymentConfig.xml using the commands mentioned below,
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Unrestricted
Import-module Appvclient
Set-AppVClientConfiguration -EnablePackageScripts 1
Add-AppvClientPackage -Path "Path of the AppV file" -DynamicDeploymentConfig "Path of DeploymentConfig.xml"
evenafter trying the above methods the driver MSI is not getting installed. Hope you can understand my explanations above.

Query regarding database access segregation using os authentication in windows environment

Hi ,
I have a query regarding database access segragation using os authentication (like sqlplus "/ as sysdba") in windows environment.Let me briefly explain my requirement:-
Suppose you have two DBA`s viz DBA1 and DBA2 and 4 databases resideds in a windows server say A,B,C & D.Now I want to set up such a way if DBA1 logs into the server then he can login to database A and B only using OS authentication and DBA2 can login to database C and D only using OS authentication.
Please let me know how to do setup for this requirement.
Database version is 11.2.0.3

1494629, I am not a Windows person but if there is any way to do this I suspect some additional information is necessary:
Are the DBA users members of the Administrators Group ?
Do all 4 database share the same $ORACLE_HOME ?
I suspect if either answer above is yes then this is not possible, but like I said I am not a Windows person. I would just ask for two servers and the associated licensing to be acquired. The requirement to spend money to do something management wants usually elimanates the request in my world.

BI server sizing

Hello Experts,
what is the basis for SAP BW server sizing?
can someone give me a doc explaining the basics
and the approach to BI7.0 sizing?
thank you in advance..

The quicksizer is the basis for sizing.
Please see serivce.sap.com/quicksizer
Note that in BI in SAP NetWeaver 2004s (ther term 7.0 never existed, the name is BI in SAP NetWeaver 2004s), java and portal are part of the thecnical foundation of the BI system. The must be sized also.
The "rule of thumb" is that java/ep take about 25% of the processing load of presentation. This takes some pressure off the ABAP engine.
Basically, utilize the quicksizer (you need good information, estimates, of data volume and number (and types) of users).

MCS Server Sizing

Just looking for a general idea on MCS server sizing for CCM and IPCC Express. I understand actual sizing needs to be done by a partner with the Cisco tool.
My understanding from SRND is that all servers within a CCM cluster should be the same size (7835's, 7845's, etc.).
Does that mean my IPCC Express servers should be the same size/model as well?
Conceptually, would it be ok to use 7845's for my CCM cluster and 7835's for IPCC Express? (provided the sizing is independently appropriate).
Thanks.

The choice of servers for IPCC express is completely independent from Callmanager hardware. Regarding the servers in the CCM cluster being the same, its generally a good practice to keep them all the same. (Though, you definitely can have a 7835 for your Subscriber and 7845 for Publisher, no big deal).
Now for IPCC Express, the choice of server requirement is based on, many factors.
a. Just like Callmanager assigns weights to devices, IPCC Express assigns weights or points to various features such as (number of Recording sessions, number of Historical reporting sessions, ASR/TTS, total number of agents, supervisors, IVR ports etc. If your server doesnt meet the total number of points required for all the features you need, then you need to use the next higher model. So a 7825 has 900 points, 7835 has 1266 points, 7845 has i think about 3400 points. You have to use a spreadsheet available for download (called CRS configuration tool) which tells you the right hardware you need for the IPCC features that is required for your call center.
7845s are same as 7835s except that 7845s have dual processors, 2 extra hard disks, RAID 5 etc. You may need a 7845 if you need upto two HR sessions during business hours.

Exchange Server Sizing - Online Users

I am able to use the Exchange server sizing spreadsheet to determine server size, disk IOPS, memory capacity but it assumes that all users are in cached mode. How do I calculate if all of my users are using online mode. This is a setup where
we cannot use cached mode but we are having trouble sizing it properly.

Hi David,
as far as I know there is no detailed sheet to calculate the IOPS for online mode users based on the role requirements calculator.
Nevertheless you still can calculate estimated IOPS as per
http://blogs.technet.com/b/greg_katz_-_messaging_in_education/archive/2008/05/12/cached-mode.aspx , there is assumed online Clients required 1.5 x IOPS compared to cached mode clients. (From my personal experience, it's more 2x IOPS.)
So you can still create the IOPS profile as shown at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee832791(v=exchg.141).aspx and use that value for your Input to cell "IOPS Profile / Mailbox" on the role requirements sheet. Use the IOPS Multipülication factor to control that.

NPS Server Sizing - Millions of Connections

Hello --
I am looking for server sizing requirements for the NPS server which could potentially serve millions of devices.
I've seen the previous post related to sizing found here: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/a4b21739-1416-416f-80d1-434e03e86434/sizing-reccomendations-for-nps
Any recommendations or documents you can provide would be helpful.
Thank You!

Hi,
Based on your description, you would like to find related documents about how many clients one NPS server can serve or how many authentication requests one NPS server can process.
As far as I know, there is no similar document from Microsoft about this.
Greg’s post gave detailed information about this issue. And the article which Greg provided
Best Practices for NPS(http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc771746(v=WS.10).aspx ) is a good reference about NPS.
In this article, it mentions some best practices about using NPS in large organizations. Such as, if NPS server receive a very large number of authentication requests per
second, we can improve performance by increasing the number of concurrent authentications between NPS and the DC.
Best Regards,
Tina

Urgent query regarding performance

hi
i have one query regarding performance.iam using interactive reporting and workspace.
i have all the linsence server,shared services,and Bi services and ui services and oracle9i which has metadata installed in one system(one server).data base which stores relationaldata(DB2) on another system.(i.e 2 systems in total).
in order to increase performance i made some adjustments
i installed hyperion BI server services, UI services,license server and shared services server such that all web applications (that used web sphere 5.1) such as shared services and UI services in server1(or computer1).and remaining linsence and bi server services in computer2 and i installed database(db2) on another computer3.(i.e 3 systems in total)
my query : oracle 9i which has metadata where to install that in ( computer 1 or in computer 2 )
i want to get best performance.where to install that oracle 9i which has metadata stored in it.
for any queries please reply mail
[email protected]
9930120470

You should know that executing a query is always slower the first time. Then Oracle can optimise your query and store it temporary for further executions. But passing from 3 minutes to 3 seconds, maybe your original query is really, really slow. Most of the times I only win few milliseconds. If Oracle is able to optimize it to 3 seconds. You must clearly rewrite your query.
Things you should know to enhance your execution time : try to reduce the number of nested loops, nested loops give your an exponential execution time which is really slow :
for rec1 in (select a from b) loop
for rec2 in (select c from d) loop
end loop;
end loop;Anything like that is bad.
Try to avoid Cartesian products by writing the best where clause possible.
select a.a,
b.b
from a,
b
where b.b > 1This is bad and slow.

Reg server sizing

Hi All,
My project is implementing BI 7.0. Can any one suggest me reg server sizing.
My Problems: 1) Whether better to go for same client for both Functional guyz n
                           BW guyz on the same server.
                       2) If that is the case how to give connection bn R/3 n BI to go for
                           LO Extraction.
Currently we are in blue print stage n i am checking all these on IDES. Presently in IDES we all (both functionals n BI) working on same client on same server. Now when establing connection bn R/3 n BI, i am facing problem.
If any docs reg sizing for BI 7.0, please send to [email protected]
Help me
Thanks n Regards,
Bala

Hi Balu,
You can have R/3 and BI in same server and you can use different clients.
you can do RFC connections also between those clients.
Technically it is possible as per the Netweaver functionality.But server sizig should be done carefully. with this performance will be slow due to loads and running jobs.
you can have different servers also but u r client need to invest amount.
If it is use ful please assign points.

chandu
