Role of BW Team in BWA Installation and Operations

I am the lead BW team member at my company. We will likely be making our first BWA purchase in the next month or two. I have been asked by my boss to determine what the BW team's role will be in the installation and on-going operation of BWA. Unfortunately, I have not been included in a single BWA meeting to this point, so I am really in the dark. I am hoping that some kind soul on this forum, who has already installed BWA, would be kind enough to share some information with me. I am not looking for a tremendous amount of detail ... just enough to help decide what kind of education and training the BW team members will need to be able to perform our duties.
Thank you!

Flawless installation and operation for one of three user accounts

I have used all the wonderful support offered by this forum (except give up)to get the latest versions of Itunes/QT working on my home computer. I've managed several successful installs (and removals) of Itunes and QT but it only works properly for the primary user account. The other two user accounts (both set up as administrators) I continue to receive the infamous "error #-2095" in QT and the "Itunes encountered a problem" error message when launching Itunes. Any help overcoming this problem would be appreciated.

Well thank you indeed. Along with your advice (disable fast switching)and some advice offered in another thread (remove Microsoft Security Update KB-908531 & KB-921398 and select the C:/ root directory as my next re-install location) my latest versions of Itunes and Quicktime are working just fine under all three users. Can't tell you if either effort on its own would have corrected the problem. I've been messing with this since Christmas so I have been very anxious to try anything suggested. Last clean and reinstall included all of the fixes suggested (above) and found since the last clean and re-install hours earlier. Hang in there guys. Keep trying, you'll get it. Thank you again!

Team Foundation Server 2010 and System Center 2012 SP1 Operations Manager WorkItem Synchronization fail

Hello,
We are currently implementing a Devops solution with SCOM 2012 SP1 and TFS 2010 SP1 and we would like to synchronize APM alerts with TFS and the Operational Issue WorkItem. However we are not
able to sync anything.
Here is our environments :
Products :
SCOM
System Center Operations Manager 2012 SP1
French
OS: Windows 2012 SP1 Std x64
French
DB: SCOM SQL Server 2012 SP1 x64

MP Alert Attachement 7.0.9538.0 (We have also try the version in the VM DEVOPSALL : 7.0.9538.1005)
TFS
Team Foundation Server 2010 SP1
French 10.0.40219.1
OS: Windows 2008 R2 SP1 Std x64
French
DB: TFS SQL Server 2008 x64
TFS 2012 Object Model Installer (We have also try the version 2010)
Here is our configuration :
TFS Platform
This a French platform with a project based on the Process Template SCRUM 1.0 alone in a Team Project collection. The Operational Issue import completed successfully. It’s possible to manipulate
Operational Issue for all of its states from TFS.
SCOM Platform
We followed the documentation at :
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj883936.aspx
to configure SCOM Alert Attachment and Operation Manager Tfs Work Item Synchronization. Everything seems to be ok. All configurations succeed. We did not configure Intellitrace collector.
The problem occurs when we are trying to push an APM alert to TFS. When we assigned an alert to the Engineering nothing is synchronized in TFS. There is no error in the event viewer on the TFS
server. But, on the SCOM server we get 2 exceptions raised by Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Modules.Apm.TfsWISync.OMModules. We provide you the log of the SCOM Server in this mail.

Hi,
To monitor the complete TFS infrastructure, you need additional monitoring packs that alert you about a wide range of problems with TFS components. When you import the TFS Work Item Synchronization management pack, it is a best practice to
also import and configure these monitoring packs, you can double check these:

Oracle Flexcube installation and documentation?

Hi all,
I am looking for documentation and software requirements to setup Oracle Flexcube. The only documentation I can find so far is the brochure from Oracle:
http://www.oracle.com/us/industries/financial-services/046907.html
I understand that Flexcube was a product developed by Bangalore India team years ago and then acquired by Oracle. However, I cannot find the installation and configuration documentation for Oracle Flexcube and I also cannot find where to download the Oracle Flexcube software either.

Contact details are available in the same link -- http://www.oracle.com/us/industries/financial-services/046907.html
Please also see:

SCCM installation and post requirements

I have searched several threads regarding the permission prerequisites for SCCM installation but have not found one that cleary addresses my question.
I have setup the appropriate permissions with the SCCM computer accounts and site installation service account added
to the local administrators group on the SQL server. Is this access still needed for post SCCM installation or can it be reduces once installation is complete?
I would like to remove the SCCM computer accounts from the SQL local admin group post installation and reduce the SCCM service account from the sysadmin role on SQL.
What is the supported configuration post installation?

The official response is that we require admin rights to all site system computers, even after installation. There are ongoing tasks we perform after installation that will fail and generate errors/status messages if you were to remove it.
With that said, for SQL Server:
If the customer removes the local admininstrators group from the SQL sysadmin then we still work.
Hi Wally,
do you mean the SQL sysadmin right for SCCM installation service account is not required after the installation? is it officially supported by Microsoft?

Need Help on Real Application Testing (RAT) installation and configarations

Hi Folks,
We are expecting an opportunity across RAT implementation in near future and our team is trying explore on RAT and need help in installation and configurations .Am looking for some RAT
contacts ,please help me..
Thanks,
Jay.

Q1
I have not had a space issue in the RAT capture files that caused a database issue when space ran out.
Q2
You will miss anything you filtered the capture on, anything that errored during the capture
Capture will also not get and to be aware of
Direct Path Load (SQL Loader)
Shared server (Oracle MTS)
Oracle Streams & Advanced Replication Streams
Non-PL/SQL based Advanced Queuing (AQ)
Flashback queries
OCI-based Object Navigation
Non SQL-Based Object Access
Distributed transactions, remote describe/commit operations (will be replayed as local transactions)
Q3
I typically use DB Replay for an overall work load perspective, SPA for SQL Level.
For example I will to a DB replay find from my reports SQL that needs a further look see and use SPA from there.
or potentially use SPA to focus on the SQL itself and not concern myself the the whole workload until I am ready.
Q4
Set the SCN for when capture is started, have the replay database be recovered to that SCN prior to any replay operation. No real need to shutdown, done this many times with success.
Q5
Typically I will filer any grid control agent or other agent software activities from the capture for sure.
Q6
Your Capture Report does not show anything?
Q7
You can extract and load AWR with the following packed procedures
sys.dbms_swrf_internal.awr_extract
sys.dbms_swrf_internal.awr_load

Role of ECC team

Hi,
I am new to SAP BI. What is the role of ECC team in a SAP BI Implementation.
Thanks
nikhil
Edited by: nikhil29 on Dec 31, 2011 7:09 AM

Ideally speaking, there is no role of ECC team in BI implementation.
You can go to ECC team in case
- you need help about the data like you need to know the source tables, T-code etc validate data in BI
- there is data load failure because of quality of data, you can get in touch with ECC team to understand if data needs to be corrected or something else is to be done to handle such scenarios
- you can take ECC team's help in creating data in test systems to validate your scenarios
- you need to be in touch with ECC team in cases where changes in ECC may impact BI e.g. changes in COPA, creation of new document types
In another way, you will need help of ECC team to gather some functional knowledge. Other than that there is no role of ECC team for BI implementation but there can be dependency like ECC changes should be moved first and then BI related changes.
You will need help from ECC Basis team in moving DS related transports to production system.
I hope it helps.

Gaurav

Transfering content between BWA installations

Hi,
I just want to find out what option I have if I want to transfer content between two physically separated BWA installations.
Any hint will be mostly appreciated. Using DVDs, CDs as transfer medium is desired.

Stratos

Stratos, I am curious if standard BWA Indexes are at all compatible with BWA Indexes for Explorer. For Explorer you need these additional new meta-data BWA Indexes for Text, Authorizations and Conversion Factors and to update main Indexes to Explorer form (this is what I just got first hand from Ty Miller from SAP

Satellite U840W PSU5XA - Win 8.1 installation and effective SSD usage

Hello.
Im hoping for a solution to two issues.
The second I suspect is caused by the first.
Satellite U840W PSU5XA-001006
Started to receive BSOD with various faults.
Most persistant was IRQ LESS or not EQUAL- iaStorAV.sys
Many hours of searching and I cannot locate a solution nor post that actually has the "AV" extension on on iaStore.sys.....
So, i factory resetted, and various other issues (BSOD's) persisted.
So, I Clean installed Windows 8.1 straight over everything and deleted all previous files.
I noticed the system was not running any factory TOSHIBA Branded utilities etc. and seemed to be a lot slower. I suspected that this was caused due to the 32GB SSD used for Cache had now seemingly been bi-passed and everything was now strictly running off the 500GB HDD. I dont recall BSOD's but the system was significantly slower on boot and performance.
Sooooo, (SIGH), I again reset back to factory settings and this gave me back TOSHIBA branded utilities such as service station and the like.
HOWEVER, The BSOD's remained and once upgrading to windows 8.1 KEEPING files and settings, the iaStorAV.sys error has returned (specifically when closing lid into sleep mode) forcing CRITICAL error and forcing system into reboot instead of awakening from sleep.
Note: Windows is a legit MS copy so that isnt the issue either. Even stranger is that the 8.1 instal had been running at least 8 months no issue prior to sudden BSOD Page file and iaStorAV errors. Readings and posts have me believing MS Updates to bee the culprit here for the beginning of these issues.
I read a similar post regarding enabling RAID CACHE PRIOR to Windows 8.1 install. My intuition tells me that these two may just be related. i.e. If windows has not installed RAID CACHE properly, then CACHE isnt being strored correctly and causing BSOD's. Im a newbie at this stuff, so be patient.....
What I really want to know is, How can I now Factory Reset Windows 8, making positive the 32GB is being used as CACHE and assisting fastboot etc, then safely upgrade to Windows 8.1?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
THINGS ALSO ATTEMPTED: IRST and RAID re-Install, Memory Diagnostic (Passed), BIOS Upgrade to 6.70, Rapid Storage Drivers re-installed
Thanks ahead of time,
Mr Frustrated............

Ok, well, its been a while and no-one had really come up with a solid solution. But thank you JakieStewart for the RST information.
Note: Updating RST drivers alone, failed....
However, I have been able to work around the issue in a way:
I have lost the ability to use the SSD as a cache, which really annoys me, as all the reboots, and suggestions i have read, re-installs etc proved flawed in some way or another.
So, I have instead chosen to clean install windows 8.1 then followed a post relating to Diskpart and setting SSD hibernation partition.
A link to consider would be http://download.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/rapid_start_technology_user_guide.pdf
However i followed a somewhat abbreviated version.
Conclusion:
1. Now I can close the lid on my U840W (INTO SLEEP or HIBERNATION Mode and not get a "System Thread Exception iaStorAV.sys error because I have 1. Reluctantly Clean Installed Windows 8.1 over factory image and 2. now created a >Hibernation Partition< on the SSD
Even though SSD Cache may no longer be available, creating this Hibernation Partition assists with Rapid START Technology and the associated iaStorAV.sys type errors
You can find your Toshiba Rapid Store Technology Drivers for your model here:
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/search?keyword=Intel%C2%AE+Rapid+Storage+Technolog y+%28Intel%C2%AE+RST%29
2. I no longer have the option to use the SSD as a cache, but overall my system runs a lot better now
3. The SSD is not visible in explorer (which it never was under the original settings anyway)
3. Downside: I can no longer boot or reset back to original Toshiba factory settings and can only recover from the new recovery disk (USB) i have made.
I have now also downloaded and stored on a USB all the original TOSHIBA U840W Drivers from http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/ultrabook/u840w/psu5xa-001006/download?os=30
If like me, you clean install windows 8.1 I highly suggest getting your drivers downloaded locally so that you don't have to keep going back to Toshiba or Intel unless updates are required.
4. Note: Make note to set the BIOS Hibernation mode to "Immediately" if you choose to go this route as per the instructions on the Intel Link
5. Change "Toshiba Power Options" to make sure that closing Lid send laptop into Sleep or Hibernation (Both work) Do this by searching for "power options' in windows charm search and >select power plan >Change power plan settings >Change Advanced Power Settings >Power Button and Lid >selecting either Sleep or Hibernation (both work as i said earlier)
ON THE PRO SIDE: My HDD boot from total Shutdown State time is "about" 50 seconds but more significantly, closing the lid into sleep keeps my work available again, and takes 9.5 seconds to boot from sleep into usable actions!!!!
So despite losing SSD Cache, I now know a lot more about my computer, and the sleep function and Hibernation work supremely well.
I hope someone finds this thread useful...
Shane
Laslty, it is sooooo strange how this all happened overnight with the iaStora.sys; iaStorAV.sys iaStora.sys errors...and how restoring back to previous states didn't work, and how it seemingly corrupted even the Flash Stored Cache settings and Operating System! At least I now understand my computer better and luckily this didn't occur during previous Diploma studies. Phew.....

I'm going to guess videos buffer for a while also...
Two possibilities, one is you should close apps on the iPad, the other is your internet speed is not able to handle the demands of a high speed device.
To close apps: Double click home button, swipe up to close the apps.
To solve internet problem, contact your provider. Basic internet is not enough for video games and movies. Your router may be old and slow.

Installation and performance wonderful!

Just completed installation and testing of Aperture 3. 20K images, mostly RAW from Canon 40D and 5DM2 (11 to 23 MB RAW files), around 300GB.
Ran Consistency Check and then Rebuild on Aperture 2 libraries before starting move to Aperture 3.
Backed up Aperture 2 Libraries on several hard drives (belt and suspenders).
Installed from Ap 3 disk.
Did software updates re slideshows and new RAW update.
Turned off Faces (can run this later).
Did not reprocess files, just the update. I will reprocess as needed, when I want to use new tools on old files.
Update on both Mac Pro (2006, 2.66GHZ, 7GB ram) and MacBook Pro (2008, 2.5 GHZ, 4 GB ram). No other application slowed down at all during update. Update took about two hours on each machine.
Library and adjustments are very snappy.
Printing went exceedingly well, after re-entering my presets.
Image Browser shows Aperture library.
Not a single problem so far. I've spent almost a week reading the posts here and I've seen all the problems some people have had.
In my view, a very, very impressive new version.

I know it really probably will not help but I submitted a bug report.
"17-Feb-2010 12:16 PM Brian Hursey:
Summary:
Major issue with Aperture 3 when converting A2 library's and projects to A3.
Steps to Reproduce:
Senerio 1. Open an existing aperture library. It tells you you will need to convert the library conversion only gets to about 5%.
Senerio 2. Importing and not converting an existing A2 library into a A3 library.
Senerio 3. Reprocessing masters on a imported A2 project.
Expected Results:
Conversion, importing processing needs to keep from locking up the system and making it unusable.
Actual Results:
Uses all systems resources and creates a 43+ gig swap file. Used 100% of both cores of my 2.0 ghz 2009 mac mini, and used all of the ram.

BO XI 3.1 installation and Upgrade activity Steps

Hi Experts,
Right now we are using BO XI R2 Version, Planning to uninstall XI R2 and do a fresh installation of BO XI 3.1 with SP3.
Do I need to install the Java latest version for XI 3.1? Right now we have the following setting,
         j2re1.4.2_04
         j2re1.4.2_16
         jre1.5.0_14
Since the up gradation of Reports, user, groups, universe events etc are from XI R2 version to XI 3.1.So Is it enough to
install BO XI 3.1 with SP 3, or do I have to go for FixPack inorder to avoid problem after this upgrade activity.
Could you please tell me about the BOXI R2 to XI 3.1 installation and Upgrade activity Steps.
Regards,
Sridharan

Hi,
you dont need a special JRE version on the Server. With the installation of BO a own JRE will be installed for BOE. Only for developing WebI reports the developer need a 1.6.x JRE later on.
There is already FixPack 3.1 out but installing "only" SP3 should be sufficient.
I would recommend you check the upgrade guide from Rel.2 to XI 3.1:
https://websmp208.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001646952008E/xi3-1_bip_upgrade_en.pdf
You need a S-User to Login.

EIS Installation and Configuration

Hi Everybody,
I am trying to install EIS 9.31 on my laptop (i.e Win2k3 Server), I have successfully installed Essbase and EIS
But I have no idea how to configure(Creating DSN Catalog) in EIS.
I am using Oracle 10g. Can any one please help me on thsi installation.
Already I gone through the installation document but I didn't understand how to configure.
If anyone having installation and Configuring Screen shots please send me to my mail
Mail Id: [email protected]
This is very urgent I need to give presentation on the EIS
Thanks in Advance for your help
Awaiting for your quick Response

I'm not sure what version of software you are looking to install, but for 9.3.1, we just installed our application server (Weblogic), installed Shared Services, supplied the database info and we were good to go. I do believe; however, your mileage will vary depending on the application server you use as some of them have an option for 'automatic' installation and some are manual. (I went the 'automatic' route) You will need to refer to the installation documentation for all of the relevant details, though.

You cannot.
