RAC Production Comprehensive Check List

Dear RAC Gurus,
I am putting together a daily health check list for a 4-node production RAC cluster hosting a multi terra-byte database. I would like to know if any of you have put together such list and can share your thoughts on it and what to include in the list.
Please respond with your suggestions and advice.

Essbase Product Existence Check Fails against the Shared Services Server

Hello Everyone,
I am a new to Essbase
When I am launching the EAS web console and trying to log in, its giving me an error saying "Could not connect to Administration Server".
I looked in ESSBASE log file its showing an error 1051429 : "Essbase Product Existence Check Fails against the Shared Services Server with Error []"
This error actually started when I copied an Essbase Application from one of my computers to another computer. All I simply did is copied the application folder into "app" folder. I am not sure if migration
is possible just by copying and pasting the application folders. I am not sure if doing this messed up security with shared services. Also under c:\hyperion\essbase folder I see another text file named "SharedServices_Security_Client".
Its log for today is below:

From the log
Error establishing socket to host and port: chandan:1433. Reason: Connection refused: connect
The SQL server itself is not running or TCP/IP is disabled. That can be confirmed by runing netstat and see it is listed there.
Then run telnet chandan 1433 and see it can connect

BW Check List

Hi all,
I need to create a Check List for BW codification. This will help the programmers if they are doing good work.
Somebody can give a list of "good practices" in BW for build this BW check list?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
This isn't a comprehensive list but probably the key ones to ensure good data load times/data integrity:
<ol>
<li>Where possible only use routines in the start/end transformation routines rather than routines in the transformation itself. Routines at the start/end have access to the whole data package it is much quicker to run a routine for 10,000 records once than 10,000 routines for 1 record at a time. If this isn't possible then try to load the required data into a temp table at the start rather than have the transformation routine access a table each time it runs.</li>
 
<li>When loading to a cube from a DSO where the cube is regularly compressed with zero elimination, have any master data attributes loaded into the DSO rather than loaded in the transformation to the cube. This will prevent a mismatch in the characteristics when updating the cube and help stop errors when compressing (by errors I mean zero elimination not working as needed). By having the MD in the DSO, the change log will correctly hold the old and new values of changing master data in two separate lines which will correctly reverse the existing line in the cube and allow zero elimination. </li>
 
<li>(Not specific to BI) When using the ABAP code 'FOR ALL ENTRIES IN' in a select statement, ensure that the table referenced for all entries has at least one entry otherwise it will execute the select for everything in the table referenced in the FROM part of the statement (in the same way that a blank value in selection options means everything and not nothing). Use a DESCRIBE LINES statement to check this and if the count is zero execute a different query.</li>
 
<li>When writing to tables directly, make sure you use lock objects to lock the table. These can be called using FM ENQUEUE_<lock_object> and removed using DEQUEUE_<lock_object>. Use a loop around them so that they keep trying to lock the table until they manage it or at least try for a set number of times. This will help stop locking issues when processing loads in parallel.</li>
 
<li>Check the indexes you have over tables where select statements are executed. There is a fine balance between space taken by an index and the amount of time a select statement takes where no index exists but if routines are taking too long this is probably a culprit.</li>
</ol>
 
Its difficult to say any others at the moment as I'm not sure exactly what area you are working in. Probably the best method of checking how well something is coded is the amount of time it takes to load the data without error. Other areas to focus on probably include data format checking and value checks etc.
 
Hope this helps.
 
Regards,
 
Gareth

QA Check List

Hi All,
Can any one help me to prepare QA Check List
Idea behind this is before submitting for review what are the things we need to check
Ex:
1) For unit testing what are the steps we need to chek
2) Before proposing transport requests what are the steps we need check to get transports success full.
Just i need subject line on what aspects we can prepare QA Check List.( Like mentioned above Unit testing, transpotation... etc
Thanks,
Kishore

Dear Kishore,
Some tips are mentioned below.
Unit testing:
     Make sure that all the objects are already tested in the Development system by the developers.
     Load all the relevant Masters before loading the transaction Data.
     Take a snap shot data of production server and load it in QA server.
     Prepare the test case documents based on the Production data
Transport Requests:
     Break the complex transport requests into multiple simple requests. for example if you have a data
     flow from Datasource to Multiprovider and reports. Break them into 2 or 3 requests to avoid memory
     related issues.
    Always import the dependent objects requests first to avoid import errors
   Prepare a transport request log and mark the sequence of transport & dependencies
   Analize each and every request log after import is completed.
   Manually check whether all the objects are properly imported or not.
Hope this helps to prepare your QA related activities.
Regards,
Sreenivas.

GATP , product availability check error

Hello all
I have a APO product with check mode, ATP group . The ATP customizing is correct inmy understanding and the ATP simulation in APO gives correct results. However when I create a sales order in R3 , it results in an error:
Error in calling up function 'BAPI_APOATP_CHECK' in APO server 'APOCLNT800': Screen output without connection to user.
Message no. AG023
Diagnosis
A system error or communication error occurred while calling up a
function in the APO server.
Thanks in advance and any help is appreciated
Anton

Hi,
The problem is with the userid of RFC. In RFC Connection from R/3 to APO the user id should be a dialogue user. which is not at present in your system.
Make it a dialogue user, and the error will go away.
Please follow the link

Issue in Customize Clearance check list under the People Management form

Dear
We are on 11.5.10, we have created NEW template as "EXIT CHECK LIST" of People management, in which we have configured our own list which are mentioned below as example.
Check List
Name Date Status
IT Department user_input manually Verified/Pending
Finance user_input manually Verified/Pending
Human Resource user_input manually Verified/Pending
Now issue is, when head of above department change their corresponding record and successfully being update but system update last_updated_by column in all above three records who perform update/change record very last although he updated only IT record.
Therefore, we are not able to get their concern department Name in last updated by due to this issue.
Pls advice.

we handled similar situation through personalization as follows:
1a. Write the validation condition in personalization on WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE of ORDER Block.
Through actions, display error message and disable Book button.
1b. Write the negative of validation condition in personalization on WHEN-NEW-RECORD-INSTANCE of ORDER Block.
Through actions, enable Book button.
2. Disable Book order button in LINES Block
3. Train the users to enter the order header first, order line next and then come back to header and click book (if allowed).
Thanks,
Hrishi

Check List Notification

Hello,
We realize that in the notification came out from the check list there is only minumim of data.
We are missing basic information such the employee's job, manager, department, grade etc...
Is there a way add this information to the check list notificattion?
How did you solve it in your projects?
Thank You,
Michal

Hello,
When a notification is created, the task performer need additional information about the employee in order to fully understand the task.
For instance - if the task is to allocate a laptop, need to know the employee's grade to know what kind of laptop this employee is entitle to.
If need to allocate a desk, need to know the employee's location
etc...
Hope this is clear.
Thanks, Michal

Quality assurance check list in XI/PI or work

Hi Experts,
what type of quality assurrance work or check list in XI/PI?
Friends please help me.
regards
elton
Edited by: eltonsaranya on Jun 27, 2011 9:02 AM

You don't dedicated/specifically need Quality Assurance Check List for PI. But you can have One dedicated section for QA for all points like General Points, Overview, Performance point of view, exception handling, Test conditions, also you can have Namestandards follwed or not etc in Technical Specification itself.

Check list field values using LINQ

I have to check if the CURRENT USER is already in the list USERS by comparing his AccountName to the list field ACCOUNTNAME.
If the USER is on the list I have to check if the field IsFollower is YES or NO and change it according to some conditions.
I think LINQ would be the correct way of doing this but I have no clue how to do that.
Any ideas pls, thanks

Hi,
Yes, you can query the list using LINQ.
You need to get the SPList Object firstly, and then you can query list item value using LINQ.

Check list for testing

Hello everyone,
I am trying to put a document together to have a check list for integration testing. does anybody have anything like this that can share? Or any tips of what steps should be taken in consideration to complete integration testing?
Thank you for your help!

Hi,
1) Integration testing validate end to end business scenarios including interfaces. Use converted data (if applicable and based on the data strategy). Can be executed in multiple cycles based on the implementation strategy
2) Scenario-based testing across process areas
May include multiple t-codes, or equivalent units in a string or sequence
3) Testing across modules
4) Primarily deals with cross-application chains that directly or potentially impact each other
5) Consists mostly of positive testing with selected negative testing
6) Executed in the Quality Assurance test environment
7) Integration Testing will be performed in multiple cycles
8) Next cycle should not begin if critical discrepancies have not been dispositioned. All Integration test discrepancies must be closed by the end of the last integration test cycle
9) A discrepancy can be dispositioned if:
Retest Passes or
Workaround approved or
Alternate resolution approved

Check List Option

Pages 08 offers options for bulletized and other lists but not a check list like Appleworks where you can create a list and check off items as they are completed. Is this correct or must I look somewhere else besides list style?

You can create your own custom list as a checklist. You will need to use the character pallette and select the checkbox dingbat. Then type in some text afterwards to have something to highlight in the directions from Pages Help below.
