Question on QoS for File-- SOAP synchronous high volume interface

Is it possible to have a File to SOAP (sender file adapter --> receiver SOAP adapter, synchronous - response needed by sender ) scenario with FIFO (first in first out). This is a high volume interface (about 8 messages/second). If FIFO possible, will a failed message block the succeeding messages?
My understanding is that QoS of receiver SOAP CC is Best Effort.
Thank you.

yes..EOIO will block the queues if its predecessor are not in final state...
for ur design u can rfer the below wiki...instead of RFC u can use soap adapter..

    Hi JV
    We can do that without using the BPM if we have SP 19 for XI 3.0 or SP 10 for PI 7.. By using the Modules.

  • Synchronous File- Soap scenario with fault message

    Hi!
    I have a File to Soap synchronous scenario.
    All is right when no exception is returned by the web service.
    I want to use fault messages to catch thoses exceptions, so I have added fault message in message interfaces and in the mapping program in the interface mapping.
    Now, when the web service return an exception like :
    <soap-env:Envelope xmlns:soap-env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
       <soap-env:Body>
          <soap-env:Fault>

    Hey Laurence,
    A File adapter is aysnchronous u cant use for synchrous because it cant acknwlodge the response it gets or itt sends.
    regarding two asynchoronus
    1. file to SOAP asychn.
    2. triggger the second one if SOAP has exception then pass the error from SOAP to New File.
    using BPM we have to use Transportion level acknowledgments
    please reward points if it helps

  • FILE to SOAP synchronous scenario - config of SOAP channel

    Hi All,
    I have a scenario where I want PI to pull some files from 3rd party application.
    Adapters to be used: SOAP receiver, FILE adapters.
    I am aware of the use of Request/Response beans in File sender channel and the File receiver channel to dump the received files in a particular location.
    I need help with the configuration of the SOAP channel.
    The files to be pulled will be Encrypted.
    Summary:
    File sender(RequestResponse & ResponseOneWay Beans) , File receiver( to receive the files), SOAP receiver.
    Need help with the config of SOAP.
    Kindly let me know your views.
    Thanks,
    Pratibha.

    Hi,
    Let me put it in detail steps:
    In forward flow we will be sending an IDoc. It will be processed and later an Acknowledgement file will be generated.
    Now, we want to PULL this Ack file. If the other party had to push the Ack file, the scenario would have been simple.
    But, we want to poll for this file and then pull it.
    So, we would have something like this:
    1. FILE SENDER sends a sample file.
    2. We will be applying the beans in file sender to make it a synchronous scenario. So, the Ack file will be received at the location mentioned in the corresponding FILE RECEIVER adapter.
    3. We have a SOAP RECEIVER which should send the ACK file in response.
    I have configured the same scenario where the RECEIVER was HTTP adapter. The 3rd party had provided us the URL and ENT-APRF value. When I used to send the sample file via FILE SENDER to this HTTP receiver, I was able to retrieve the ACK file via the FILE RECEIVER.
    Now, I wish to configure the same using RECEIVER SOAP adapter.
    I need to know about the config at SOAP end i.e. how and where  the ACK file will be available at the SOAP end for the FILE sender to pull the file.
    Ack files will be encrypted..
    Any views/suggestions will be of great help.
    Thanks,
    Pratibha.

  • File size extremely high for .avi after render PE 9

    I'm very new to PE and have tried to learn quick to redact info (faces etc) in .avi files for a government agency. I was able to open the file (in the trial version) and make the track matte by dragging the original file to the timeline then dragging it again to the video 2 timeline for the top layer, Question 1) is this the same as copy and paste or am I doubling the size already? Anyway, I was able to get the matte and everything done. Now, to Render and save... I choose computer/avi again (I need to keep it the same) and it took 1 hr 45 min to render it, that seemed long to me but maybe not... but mainly the file size was then 100,883 kb! Starting with a 29.7 kb file. This is what my question is about....could this be right? I can't use it if this is what I get. So, here are the particulars as I got G-spot and looked it up, as per serveral suggestions I saw here. I'm trying to understand the CODEC info but I fear I have a ways to go before I can figure out what I did wrong. (This is my test computer, the future work would be done on a newer, better computer).  The videos I would be working with come from various sources and will vary in length but will probably all be a kind of avi.
    Intel Pentium processor 1600 mhz
    221 mhz, 2.00 gb ram
    Microsoft windows xp sp3
    video:
    length: 0:27.261
    frms:  817
    Kbps: 28770
    pic:  720x480
    codec: dvsd dvc/dy
    I appreciate any help you can give

    Thanks for you response and the information was very helpful. I was able to choose and output that gave me a good file size and I do want DV-AVI (I don't remember what I chose but it worked) but, I don't see an option for DV-AVI - is that a general DV output selection, because there seem to be numerous (AVCHD, NTSC, DV STANDARD) acronyms (I have tried to understand what each is) which do I want?

    For the use of Track Matte Keying, with say a Gaussian Blur, or maybe Moasic Effect, if you have not altered the In & Out Points, then just dragging the Asset to both Video 1 and Video 2 will work fine. If you HAVE adjusted the In & Out Points, you can just click-drag from the Source Monitor, where you set those In & Out Points, and all is good. The Copy/Paste is just another way to do it.
    As you are doing an "overlay," the output File Size will not be affected in any way. You are also limiting the Blur, or Effect on Video 2 to just the area "exposed" by the Track Matte, so the pixel count will not be altered.
    As Steve points out, the output CODEC in the AVI will determine the output File Size. File Size is basically determined by the Timeline's Duration and by the Bit-Rate of the output file. With DV-AVI, that Bit-Rate is pretty well set, and your Timeline determines the Duration. At ~ 13GB/hour, a DV-AVI will be pretty large, but that is the nature of the beast. Also, and as Steve points out, if you are going to do additional editing, and will be Importing that file into a New Project, DV-AVI is about as good, as it gets.
    Good luck,
    Hunt

  • How do you fix error message "data rate for this file is too high for DVD.  You must replace this file with one of a lower data rate".

    When trying to burn a DVD it will go through the encoding step and at 98% we see the message 'data rate for this file is too high for DVD.  You must replace this file with one of a lower data rate".  We need help to correct this so we can complete burning to DVD.

  • Problem with WSDL file generated by PI for sender SOAP

    I have a scenario SOAP to idoc that I am trying to test in PI7.1.  I have created my objects in the ESR and completed the configuration in IB.  When I test the configuration in IB, the data passes through PI to ECC correctly.
    Now I want to export the WSDL file from the Sender Service Interface being used for this scenario and test it using SOAPUI.  However, when I look at the WSDL file proposed by PI, there is no SOAP URL proposed in the WSDL.  My understanding from looking at other threads in the the forum is that the URL should be proposed in the WSDL file, and I can then export this WSDL file to my PC, and upload it into SOAPUI for testing.
    Why is the URL not being proposed in my WSDL file?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Terri

    Thanks Baskar that solved part of the problem. 
    When I use this newly generated WSDL file for testing in SOAPUI, I now get an error 401, which I believe has something to do with needing a user id and password.  However, my scenario is not setup to require a userid or password.  Any other help would be appreciated.
    Below is the actual results from SOAPUI:

  • CCM 2.0 - Files Storage for high volume of files

    Hi all,
    I have seen in one message the following information:
    <i>1. Files storage.
    My point is that I think you've created a virtual folder on the SRM Server in SICF, which means that all your files are stored internally in the database, and not physically on the server.
    The most simple way is to create a physical folder on the server OS, and then create analias in SICF to this folder. You then will be abble to load in mass the pictures on the server using FTP, or network Share.</i>
    I want to upload images in the Catalog (CCM 2.0) and in my case I have high volume of files. Where is the best place to stored this data, in the database or in the server?
    And if it is in the server, how I can create an alias?
    Many thanks!!
    Regards

    Hi ,
    What we had done for image upload for CCM 2.0 was like this:
    1. in SE80 go to MIME repository -> drill down to services -> bc /sap/bsp - >Create a personal folder
    2. Import your image .jpeg in this folder.
    3. Derive an URL with the structue : server name/domain name/services/file name
    4. test this URL in IE browser ,it should open the picture in IE for you.
    5. then paste this URL in the characteristic 'image' of an item in master catalog in CAT
    with this in EBP we could see the photos of the items.

  • PGC has an error--data rate of this file is too high for DVD

    Getting one of those seemingly elusive PGC errors, though mine seems to be different from many of the ones listed here. Mine is telling me that the data rate of my file is too high for DVD. Only problem is, the file it's telling me has a datarate that is too high, is a slideshow which Encore has built using imported jpg files. I got the message, tried going into the slideshow and deleting the photo at the particular spot in the timeline where it said it had the problem, now getting the same message again with a different timecode spot in the same slideshow. The pictures are fairly big, but I assumed that Encore would automatically resize them to fit an NTSC DVD timeline. Do I need to open all the pictures in Photoshop and scale them down to 720x480 before I begin with the slideshows?

    With those efforts, regarding the RAM, it would *seem* that physical memory was not the problem.
    I'd look to how Windows is managing both the RAM addresses and also its Virtual Memory. To the former, I've seen programs/Processes that lock certain memory addresses upon launch (may be in startup), and do not report this to Windows accurately. Along those lines, you might want to use Task Manager to see what Processes are running from startup on your machine. I'll bet that you've got some that are not necessary, even if IT is doing a good job with the system setup. One can use MSCONFIG to do a trial of the system, without some of these.
    I also use a little program, EndItAll2 for eliminating all non-necessary programs and Processes, when doing editing. It's freeware, has a tiny footprint and usually does a perfect job of surveying your running programs and Processes, to shut them down. You can also modify its list, incase it wants to shut down something that IS necessary. I always Exit from my AV, spyware, popup-blocker, etc., as these progams will lie to EndItAll2 and say that they ARE necessary, as part of their job. Just close 'em out in the Tasktray, then run EndItAll2. Obviously, you'll need to do this with the approval of IT, but NLE machines need all available resources.
    Now, to the Virtual Memory. It is possible that Windows is not doing a good job of managing a dynamic Page File. Usually, it does, but many find there is greater stability with a fixed size at about 1.5 to 2.5x the physical RAM. I use the upper end with great results. A static Page File also makes defragmenting the HDD a bit easier too. I also have my Page File split over two physical HDD's. Some find locating to, say D:\ works best. For whatever reason, my XP-Pro SP3 demanded that I have it on C:\, or split between C:\ and D:\. Same OS on my 3 HDD laptop was cool having it on D:\ only. Go figure.
    These are just some thoughts.
    Glad that you got part of it solved and good luck with the next part. Since this seems to affect both PrPro and En, sounds system related.

    PS some IT techs love to add all sorts of monitors to the computers, especially if networkded. These are not usually bad, but are usually out of the mainstream, in that most users will never have most of these. You might want to ask about any monitors. Also, are you the only person with an NLE computer under the IT department? In major business offices, this often happens. Most IT folk do not have much, if any, experience with graphics, or NLE workstations. They spend their days servicing database, word processing and spreadsheet boxes.

    Jerricayoung,
    you have a 13-inch Mid 2012 MacBook Pro. It’s modern enough that it supports booting into Recovery mode. To do so, hold down a Command key and the R key as you start up. It should eventually show a Mac OS X Utilities menu. Select Disk Utility from that menu; when the Disk Utility window appears, select the bootable volume from the left-hand side of the window. (It’s typically called “Macintosh HD”.) When the volume is selected, some buttons will appear on the right-hand side. If it’s not greyed out, press the Verify Disk button; if it is greyed out, or if it reports on errors that it found, press the Repair Disk button. Once the verification/repair is completed, exit Disk Utility and select Restart from the Apple menu; that will restart your MacBook Pro in its normal mode. With luck, that will be enough to get you to your normal login screen, rather than the white screen.

  • High availability for file server and exchange with 2 physical servers

    Best regards,
    DFS is by far the best way to implement any sort of file server. Because a) failover is not fully transparent and does not happen always (say not on copy ) b) DFS cannot replicate open files so if you edit a big file and have node rebooted you're going to
    lose ALL transactions/updates you've applied c) actually slows down the config. See:
    DFS for failover

    DFS Performance
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/filecab/archive/2009/08/22/windows-server-dfs-namespaces-performance-and-scalability.aspx
    SoFS a) requires shared storage to run and you don't have one b) does not support generic workloads
    (only Hyper-V and SQL Server) and c) technically makes sense to expand SAS JBOD or existing FC SAN to numerous Hyper-V clients over 10 GbE w/o need to invest money into SAS switches and HBAs and FC HBAs and new licenses FC ports. Making long story short:
    SoFS is NOT YOUR CASE.

    For now you need to find some shared storage to be a back end for your hypevisor config (SAS JBOD from supported list, virtual SAN from multiple vendors like for example StarWind see below, make sure you review ALL the vendors) and then you create a failover
    SMB 3.0 share for your file server workload. See:

    My complaints and Questions MP4 M4V video files and other complaints
    I have been scratching my head as to how to fix my problem and I found some answers and some questions along the way. First of all, I have a video that should be correctly formatted for my iPod. Its specs are:
    Kind: MPEG-4 video file
    Size: 19.4 MB
    Bit Rate: 125 kbps
    Date Modified: 8/18/2009 2:15 PM
    Play Count: 1
    Last played: 8/21/2009 12:25 PM
    Profile: Low Complexity
    Channels: Stereo
    Total Bit Rate: 360 kbps
    Video Dimensions: 352x264
    Video Codec: H.264
    F:\File\AnotherFile\A3rdFile\TheMovieFileInQuestion.mp4
    Wow that was a chore. Apple! Let us drag copy and paste our info tabs information so we don’t have to type all this stuff when we are having trouble. **another problem and suggestion** right there.
    Ok, back to the problem of the forum.
    From what I can see from http://www.apple.com/ipodclassic/specs.html this file falls in line of everything required in order to be able to play on my iPod. It plays in iTunes fine but will NOT sync with my iPod. I get an annoying message that states, “Some of the Songs and videos in your iTunes library, including “BlaBlaBlaiPondFixYourJunkBlaBlaBla”, were not copied to the iPod “My iPod” because they cannot be played on this iPod.” Why oh why can iTunes play this video file but my iPod cant. Especially when the specs on Apple’s website say it can.
    So that was bugging me for a LONG time until I found my “Create iPod or iPhone version” option in the “Advanced” heading. Thank goodness this made my files playable on my iPod. Extremely LONG wait though. I know that other programs convert it in ½ the time. But times not to important as long as it gets done, (would be very convenient if it was faster though **Problem and suggestion**)
    Ok, now that I have used the “Create iPod or iPhone version” option it has slowly but surly converted my video. Ok, here is my main problem, the new file which is the result of the conversions information is as follows:
    Kind: MPEG-4 video file
    Size: 35.4 MB
    Bit Rate: 125 kbps

    C:\File\WhyIsThisNewFileInMyMusicFolder\TheMovieFileInQuestion.m4v
    So basically it has made my file bigger *not a bonus in my book* greatly increased my Bit Rate *another interesting feature*, and I think the biggest change it has changed it from an .mp4 to an m4v.
    Why does it need to be an .m4v I could have sworn some of my videos were or are in mp4 which shouldn’t matter anyway because I was under the impression that iPods could play mp4 files. So that’s my biggest complaint and question. Why can my 80GB classic iPod not play my MP4 files and why am I forced to convert them??
    This conversion also creates 2 files in iTunes when I am done which is annoying because I have to go into my files info and look to see what file is the mp3 in order to remove it. Very annoying I can open my iPod options and see the files and some are faded (the ones it can not play) why can’t I remove them from that area.Suggestion Apple please make files that cannot be played on my iPod stand out some how for easier cleaning Suggestion. Thank you.
    Speaking of cleaning iPods, when I moved my entire library to an external drive I was faced with a terrible problem. “This file could not be found, would you like to locate file”, I was faced with this annoying message at least 600 times. Now I am glad that iTunes has a little “!” mark to show dead links so that you do some minor cleaning, Good Job iTunes No compliant there. However iTunes has no way of selecting all the broken files for major cleaning (like in my case). Going through and deleting over 600 files 1 by 1 is extremely time consuming and annoying. **Suggestion Apple please add more cleaning features for organizing iTunes**.
    Ok, speaking of organization now, another problem that appeared when converting my video files was that it put my new videos into the location where I have all my songs (my external hard drive) why can’t it put the new files in the locations of the original file? I have my computer highly organized and my original files were in that drive in that folder for a reason. If I could open my original file and skip the conversion, my iTunes would go to that specific folder to access the file which is fine. But now these new conversion files are elsewhere taking up space and disorganizing my computer. True I can go into the new location and move the files to where I want them (original location) but I don’t think I should have to hunt them down, copy, move, delete ect etc for all these files over and over. Very annoying, time consuming and should be unnecessary. **Suggestion Make file creation and location more customizable, and user friendly, your customers will love you for it**.
    Well since I have gotten into Apples iTunes and iPod problems that I have had to face I might as well bring up one or two more problems and suggestions. About a month after purchasing my iPod a sibling bought one as well. His however is way more convenient then mine. I suppose he has a 5th gen. so here is my question: why does he have a search option and I don’t!!!! Why does he get more features every so often and I don’t?! Why can’t Apple write some software for us classic guys which got the iPods going! It’s very annoying when I have to spend more time looking for the song then I spend actually listening to it, when he can pull his up in like 3-6 seconds? I highly doubt the hardware between our iPods is that dissimilar and even if they are why cant software be written for us. **Suggestion treat all your customers good not just the newer ones, and make some more features for the classics like me and my iPod.” We will be grateful for it I promise.
    Ok, I am almost done. Let me just recap my questions, I know my post is kind of lengthy.
    #1. Why can’t my iPod play MP3 video files? And why do I have to convert to almost all the same settings except changing it from an mp4 to an m4v. according to Apples own site I should be able to play .m4v .mp4 and .mov files!! Note: remember iTunes plays them fine but my iPod will not.
    #2. Would be much more convenient to be able to copy the information from the windows in iTunes so that problems and trouble shooting would be much easier. A little check on off options in iTunes advanced settings would be terrific.
    #3. Why is the conversion so slow? Please speed it, you have the power. Convenience is the thing that sells products.
    #4. Files that cannot be played on the current iPod need to be easier recognized for simpler cleaning.
    #5. Also make an easier way to select all dead link files for faster cleaning, deleting, etc. This one is important.
    #6. Make a user friendly way to change where my files are going to end up once I convert them for iPod more options and better customizable settings are need.
    #7. One of the most important is ADD A SEARCH OPTION. I and we classics will LOVE Apple for it.
    For you readers, I apologize for the long post, and any grammatical errors you might find throughout it. These are problems that I have faced with these programs and hardware and I wanted to make sure they got acknowledged and hopefully addressed. Any information about why I cannot play MP4 Video files on my iPod would be the best. If anything in my post gets answered that’s the one I want most. Will save me a lot of hassle.
    Thank you all and I look forward to your suggestions and comments. All are welcome and appreciated.
    Sincerely,
    Bond, James

    Was playing with iTunes and thought of another suggestion! Let us play files in iTunes from an iPod! A friend or sibling should be able to plug his iPod into my computer open iTunes and play any of the files there. Many times I have wanted to show a movie clip or video to a friend, and I have the dock so I can do it on my T.V. but play it on their computer in their iTunes forget it. That would be a very nice feature as well so we can watch our movies at maximum size or listen to music on a better sound system, just another suggestion that would be nice. Thanks
