Quick Sizing question

Hi there,
I (my client) have a cube with 1.8 Billion records with 850K distinct values. As you may know quick sizing allows you to enter only up to 999,999,999 records per line. What is the most accurate way to size this cube? If I enter 1B and 800M as two liners, I don't think that would be same, or shuold I use RSRV instead of quick sizer or anything else?
I appreciate your help, don't spend too much time since it's just an estimate, but I am curious if the difference will be signifcant, becuase I have 4 more over 1B cubes
Cheers
Tansu

you can use DB02 as described in the below how-to

Hi all .hope all is well ..A quick trim question

Hi all
Hope all is well ......
I have a quick trim question I want to remove part of a string and I am finding it difficult to achieve what I need
I set the this.setTitle(); with this
String TitleName = "Epod Order For:    " + dlg.ShortFileName() +"    " + "Read Only";
    dlg.ShortFileName();
    this.setTitle(TitleName);
    setFieldsEditable(false);
[/code]
Now I what to use a jbutton to remove the read only part of the string. This is what I have so far
[code]
void EditjButton_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    String trim = this.getTitle();
      int stn;
      if ((stn = trim.lastIndexOf(' ')) != -2)
        trim = trim.substring(stn);
    this.setTitle(trim);
[/code]
Please can some one show me or tell me what I need to do. I am at a lose

there's several solutions:
// 1 :
//you do it twice because there's a space between "read" and "only"
int stn;
if ((stn = trim.lastIndexOf(' ')) != -1){
    trim = trim.substring(0,stn);
if ((stn = trim.lastIndexOf(' ')) != -1){
      trim = trim.substring(0,stn);
//2 :
//if the string to remove is always "Read Only":
if ((stn = trim.toUpperCase().lastIndexOf("READ ONLY")) != -1){
   trim = trim.substring(0,stn);
//3: use StringTokenizer:
StringTokenizer st=new StringTokenizer(trim," ");
    String result="";
    int count=st.countTokens();
    for(int i=0;i<count-2;i++){
      result+=st.nextToken()+" ";
    trim=result.trim();//remove the last spaceyou may find other solutions too...
perhaps solution 2 is better, because you can put it in a separate method and remove the string you want to...
somthing like:
public String removeEnd(String str, String toRemove){
int n;
String result=str;
if ((n = str.toUpperCase().lastIndexOf(toRemove.toUpperCase())) != -1){
   result= str.substring(0,stn);
return result;
}i haven't tried this method , but it may work...

SAP BW quick sizing

Hi all,
I am currently at a client location. I have collected all the information related to sizing and i have all the infocubes with their dimensions and keyfigures and all the ods related information. The customer wanted quick sizing output. When i go to service market place for sizing for Business Intelligence i can see some 5 sections there as table 1 to table 5. The first section i have not entered anything as it is related to planning. Table 2 i have entered the report level information. In table 3 i am not able to enter anything as i dont understand what does that section mean. In table 4 i have few doubts as i am not able to understand the field "period". I am not sure what to enter in that field. It says the no of loads which will be kept in the infocube. Does that mean we are considering the load till archival is in place or is there any meaning to that.
Please guide me if anybody has worked on the bw quick sizing so far.
Your answers would be rewarded with suficient points.

Vijay

Quick sizing for Demand Planning system

Hi All
Our team is required to do quick sizing for a SCM 5.0 Demand Planning system with Livecache. The DEV and QAS is already available but not being used at all but now we need the quick sizing for the production box. I have never done any quick sizing, detailed help is appreciated. I have gone through the service.sap.com/quicksizing for demand planning it shows 3 input tables only for Throughput sizing - Time Series, DP Run, DP Users. The APO functional guys entered some numbers but not sure what to do next as the Calculate Result shows information Iam not able to understand.
What I need from sizing is CPU processor, disk size, memory size, etc in clear detail. Please suggest, Thanks in advance.
Regards
Ali

Hello Ali,
First of all I am not a BASIS consultant and hence it would not be prudent for me to comment on hardware configuration reuqired in your case.
Secondly I do not understand what you mean by Quicksizer has been shut down. It is available online at <a href="http://service.sap.com/quicksizer">Quicksizer Tool</a> in Service Marketplace.
There is good amount of documentation available in the website giving details on the basis of computation of different parameters. Again SCM Hardware Configuration is not just dependent on the number of users but the functional requirements as well.
Thirdly - I cannot explain how SAPS concept is related to SCM Quicksizing. Per my understanding the SAPS concept is an hardware-independent benchmark of throughput which is an indicator of the processing capabilities required at peak loads. SAPS will determines the number and processor speed on your Application Server depending on the processor capabilities. Most hardware vendors provide datasheets with SAPS capabilities.
Suggest you go through the document "Background: Sizing mySAP Business Suite" under Sizing Guidelines >> General Sizing Procedures.
Thanks,
somnath

Quick script question

Hi all,
Could anyone advise me if i can add anything within - header('Location: http://www.mysite.co.uk/thankyou.html'); in the script below so as the page
re- directs back to the main index page after a few seconds ?
Thankyou for any help.
<?php
$to = '[email protected]';
$subject = 'Feedback form results';
// prepare the message body
$message = '' . $_POST['Name'] . "\n";
$message .= '' . $_POST['E-mail'] . "\n";
$message .= '' . $_POST['Phone'] . "\n";
$message .= '' . $_POST['Message'];
// send the email
mail($to, $subject, $message, null, '');
header('Location: http://www.mysite.co.uk/thankyou.html');
?>

Mr powers gave me that script so im rather confused at this point in time
I don't think I "gave" you that script. I might have corrected a problem with it, but I certainly didn't write the original script.
What you're using is far from perfect, but to suggest it would lay you open to MySQL injection attacks is ludicrous. For you to be prone to MySQL injection, you would need to be entering the data into a MySQL database, not sending it by email.
There is a malicious attack known as email header injection, which is a serious problem with many PHP email processing scripts. However, to be prone to email header injection, you would need to use the fourth argument of mail() to insert form data into the email headers. Since your fourth argument is null, that danger doesn't exist.
One thing that might be worth doing is checking that the email address doesn't contain a lot of illegal characters, because that's a common feature of header injection attacks. This is how I would tidy up your script:
<?php
$suspect = '/Content-Type:|Bcc:|Cc:/i';
// send the message only if the E-mail field looks clean
if (preg_match($suspect, $_POST['E-mail'])) {
header('Location: http://www.example.com/sorry.html');
exit;
} else {
$to = '[email protected]';
$subject = 'Feedback form results';
// prepare the message body
$message = 'Name: ' . $_POST['Name'] . "\n";
$message .= 'E-mail: ' . $_POST['E-mail'] . "\n";
$message .= 'Phone: ' . $_POST['Phone'] . "\n";
$message .= 'Message: ' . $_POST['Message'];
// send the email
mail($to, $subject, $message);
header('Location: http://www.example.com/thankyou.html');
exit;
?>
Create a new page called sorry.html, with a message along the lines of "Sorry, there was an error sending your message". Don't put anything about illegal attacks. Just be neutral.
By the way, when posting questions here, don't use meaningless subject lines, such as "Quick script question". If you're posting here, it's almost certain to be a question about a script. It doesn't matter whether it's quick. Use the subject line to tell people what it's about.

Urgent help with quick translation questions

Hello,
I am somewhat new to Java. I have a translation to hand in in a few hours (French to English). Argh! I have questions on how I worded some parts of the translation (and also if I understood it right). Could you, great developers, please take a look and see if what I wrote makes sense? I've put *** around the words I wasn't sure about. If it sounds strange or is just plain wrong, please let know. I also separated two terms with a slash, when I was in doubt of which one was the best.
Many thanks in advance.
1) Tips- Always ***derive*** the exceptions java.lang.Exception and java.lang.RuntimeException.
Since these exceptions have an excessively broad meaning, ***the calling layers will not know how to
distinguish the message sent from the other exceptions that may also be passed to them.***
2) The use of the finally block does not require a catch block. Therefore, exceptions may be passed back to the
calling layers, while effectively freeing resources ***attributed*** locally
3) TIPS- Declare the order for SQL ***statements/elements*** in the constant declaration section (private static final).
Although this recommendation slightly hinders reading, it can have a significant impact on performance. In fact, since
the layers of access to data are ***low level access***, their optimization may be readily felt from the user’s
perspective.
4) Use “inlining.”
Inlining is a technique used by the Java compiler. Whenever possible, during compilation, the compiler
copies the body of a method in place of its call, rather than executing a ***memory jump to the method***.
In the example below, the "inline" code will run twice as fast as the ***method call***
5)tips - ***Reset the references to large objects such as arrays to null.***
Null in Java represents a reference which has not been ***set/established.*** After using a variable with a
large size, it must be ***reassigned a null value.*** This allows the garbage collector to quickly ***recycle the
memory allocated*** for the variable
6) TIPS Limit the indexed access to arrays.
Access to an array element is costly in terms of performance because it is necessary to invoke a verification
that ***the index was not exceeded.***
7) tips- Avoid the use of the “Double-Checked Locking” mechanism.
This code does not always work in a multi-threaded environment. The run-time behavior ***even depends on
compilers.*** Thus, use the following ***singleton implementation:***
8) Presumably, this implementation is less efficient than the previous one, since it seems to perform ***a prior
initialization (as opposed to an initialization on demand)***. In fact, at runtime, the initialization block of a
(static) class is called when the keyword MonSingleton appears, whether there is a call to getInstance() or
not. However, since ***this is a singleton***, any occurrence of the keyword will be immediately followed by a
call to getInstance(). ***Prior or on demand initializations*** are therefore equivalent.
If, however, a more complex initialization must take place during the actual call to getInstance, ***a standard
synchronization mechanism may be implemented, subsequently:***
9) Use the min and max values defined in the java.lang package classes that encapsulate the
primitive numeric types.
To compare an attribute or variable of primitive type integer or real (byte, short, int, long, float or double) to
***an extreme value of this type***, use the predefined constants and not the values themselves.
Vera

1) Tips- Always ***derive*** the exceptions java.lang.Exception and java.lang.RuntimeException.***inherit from***
***the calling layers will not know how to
distinguish the message sent from the other exceptions that may also be passed to them.***That's OK.
while effectively freeing resources ***attributed*** locally***allocated*** locally.
3) TIPS- Declare the order for SQL ***statements/elements*** in the constant declaration section (private static final).***statements***, but go back to the author. There is no such thing as a 'constant declaration section' in Java.
Although this recommendation slightly hinders reading, it can have a significant impact on performance. In fact, since
the layers of access to data are ***low level access***, their optimization may be readily felt from the user’s
perspective.Again refer to the author. This isn't true. It will make hardly any difference to the performance. It is more important from a style perspective.
4) Use “inlining.”
Inlining is a technique used by the Java compiler. Whenever possible, during compilation, the compiler
copies the body of a method in place of its call, rather than executing a ***memory jump to the method***.
In the example below, the "inline" code will run twice as fast as the ***method call***Refer to the author. This entire paragraph is completely untrue. There is no such thing as 'inlining' in Java, or rather there is no way to obey the instruction given to 'use it'. The compiler will or won't inline of its own accord, nothing you can do about it.
5)tips - ***Reset the references to large objects such as arrays to null.***Correct, but refer to the author. This is generally considered bad practice, not good.
Null in Java represents a reference which has not been ***set/established.******Initialized***
After using a variable with a
large size, it must be ***reassigned a null value.*** This allows the garbage collector to quickly ***recycle the
memory allocated*** for the variableAgain refer author. Correct scoping of variables is a much better solution than this.
***the index was not exceeded.******the index was not out of range***
The run-time behavior ***even depends on compilers.***Probably a correct translation but the statement is incorrect. Refer to the author. It does not depend on the compiler. It depends on the version of the JVM specification that is being adhered to by the implementation.
Thus, use the following ***singleton implementation:***Correct.
it seems to perform ***a prior initialization (as opposed to an initialization on demand)***.I would change 'prior' to 'automatic pre-'.
***this is a singleton***That's OK.
***Prior or on demand initializations***Change 'prior' to 'automatic'.
***a standard
synchronization mechanism may be implemented, subsequently:***I think this is nonsense. I would need to see the entire paragraph.
***an extreme value of this type******this type's minimum or maximum values***
I would say your author is more in need of a technical reviewer than a translator at this stage. There are far too serious technical errors in this short sample for comfort. The text isn't publishable as is.

Quick NativeWindow questions.

Hi,
Two Quick Questions about native window actions (I am using AIR with HTML and JS):
1. How do you "refer" to minimize button ? - So, when a user clicks minimize, it should do an action defined in javascript.
2. How to define click event for System tray icon ? - So I can display something when my system tray icon is double-clicked.
Thanks.

1. Add an event listener to the window.nativeWindow object, listening for the NativeWindowDisplayStateEvent.DISPLAY_STATE_CHANGING or DISPLAY_STATE_CHANGE events.
2. Add an event listener to your SystemTrayIcon object. You can listen for click, mouseUp or mouseDown events, but doubleClick events are not dispatched by this object.

SAP Quick Sizing

When you are in the quick sizer, there are elements that are listed in the tool by functional area. The question I have is, a way to use the element to find out what SAP tables are tied to these elements in SAP. I am dealing with gathering data in existing SAP instance to bench mark the volume information. Is there a way to see what SAP tables are tied to the elements in quick sizer tool? Where and how can I see them?
Thanks

> I am dealing with gathering data in existing SAP instance to bench mark the volume information. Is there a way to see what SAP tables are tied to the elements in quick sizer tool? Where and how can I see them?
I was struggling with the same problem before. There's no easy way of pulling the data out. However, if you have installed the ST/A-PI addon (for early watch alerts) you can use transaction ST14 and do a run for the specific modules and see the amount of entries in the tables. Otherwise you'll need to dig through the application tables using SE16 (or SQL) with the help of some application guy/girl or by digging yourself.

BW-SEM hardware sizing question

Hi all, please help me with sizing process
Now I'm doing sizing of the big BW-SEM system.
I'm using quicksizer and document "Sizing ASAP FOR BW ACCELERATOR" (https://websmp102.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001951182003)
There is such phrase: "In a comparison of SAP BW benchmark results with SD benchmark results we have obtained a factor of 2.28" (page 11)
what type of SAPS I obtain from quicksizer - SD or BW?
So, should I result from quicksizer tool multiple by 2,28?
Are there any official documents for this question?
Thanks in advance,
Best regards, Elena

Hi;
Currently our current 11.5.10 Production is running on a Two node architecture on HP-Unix PA-RISC with the 128 GB of RAM on the Application Server and 256 GB RAM on the DB Node.
For R12 the servers will be on HP-Unix Itanium and the sizing has been factored as 128 GB for the Application server and the DB will be on RAC with 128 GB of RAM each on the DB Nodes.
I want to know is the sizing correct?
When sizing a RAC Env is it ok to just split the current configuration into two and size the same on two nodes?
Please share your experiences.We do not know how your machine has process which mean we do not know your activiy on your system. You can check some benchmark
http://www.oracle.com/us/solutions/benchmark/apps-benchmark/ebs-standard-benchmark-overview-192676.html
Its also important how mch cpu you have.
Let me give you example from our system. We have 2 node apps server, 2 node rac and db size is almost 18T and our system is working nonstop. Our db has 30CPU and 120g RAm for each node. For apps cpu count and ram count are not like that.10 CPU and 20G ram.
We are happy wiht apps side, but we still working on better performance issue for our db side

ECC6 Sizing Question!

HI All
I need some advice and possible a recommendation on SAP Sizing.
We currently run an ECC6 (Netweaver 2004s) Platform in a 32Bit Environment and we are looking to upgrade to 64-Bit technology (as recommended by SAP). However I want to look at resizing our landscape completely, so has anyone used and companies who specialise in this?
We are based in the UK.

Okay quick easy question for all who have successfully uploaded videos

hi, this is my first post in the Apple forums!
my quick question:
I have Quicktime Pro, and am currently exporting a video to the iPod
but it is taking an unusually long time...
is this normal (and by long I mean I'm @ 16% and it has been 5 minutes)
do I just need to be more patient?
thanks
^_^

don't say that...
I successfully uploaded videos to my iPod I just was not doing it right
my question has been answered already so STOP BRINGING IT UP AGAIN
also, look... many people just got their iPods today and are kinda anxious to see the video capibilities work on them, so If you do not have anything constructive to say (by calling us n00bs), then I suggest you don't say anything at all

Quick Easy Question About N580GTX-M2D15D5 Bios

Hey guys!!
I just have a real quick and easy (i suppose) question!
I had bios version KH0, and MSI live update found KH1, i downloaded and flashed successfully (DOS window said please restart and press any key to exit) so i did, restarted my computer, and MSI live update utlity and gpu-z and MSI afterburner are all reporting the same bios version i had with the KH0, version 70.10.17.00.01 & date November 09, 2010
MSI live update is not picking up the update again, so my question is, how do i know if it flashed correctly since the bios date and version remained the same?
Thanks !

TDMS - Quick winning Question....

We are reviewing TDMS
We have one quick question ....
After 4 years of Journey & age of landscpae, becuase of SPDD & SPAU was not handled incidentally during "different" patch upgrades. and we assume there is slight inconsistency of " Repository objects" " Dictionary Objects"...
We want to acheive In short
We want to build a Development System which should be in synch of " Repository objects" " Dictionary Objects"... with out any master & application data with TDMS ?
Can we acheive this or not ...
TDMS provides all other luxuries, but we could get a straight confirmation as requirement as above.
Pl Help

Hi Sriniwas
If you are asking this question to make a buying decision about TDMS then i would suggest that you get in touch with your SAP customer engagement manager (account manager) and ask him to present you all the capabilities and functionalities of TDMS.
Current version of TDMS offer multiple options and functionalities which may be useful for you.
Now regarding the query that you have asked -
If I understood you correctly you are looking for a functionality using which you want to create a development system which is a copy of your production system such that only repository gets copied over from production to the development system and all the client dependent application data is filtered. In the end you will have your development system which is in perfect sync as far as repository and DDIC is concerned.
The above can certainly be achieved using the TDMS Shell process within TDMS. TDMS Shell is also used as a process to prepare your receiver system for TDMS data transfer.
I hope this info helps
Pankaj.

Quick naming question

Wasnt sure if its a naming issue or not but Ive never ran into the problem and Im not sure how to describe it....so here goes.
Question: Is there a way to insert a string into the name of a component name and have java see it as the actual component name. (see that question still sounds incorrect)
What I mean is......
you have 10 buttons named oneB, twoB, threeB,......tenB
I need to either change a whole lot of code and make what I want to be simple, very large and complex or, find a way to....
"one"B.setLocation(whereverNotImportant);
or
(someObject.getString( ) ) + B.setLocation(whereverNotImportant);
It looks really odd to me. If theres a way to do it, it just saved me a lot of annoyance.....if not well, Im gonna need more energy drinks.
