RPM Project Upload Performance

Hi,
We are using RPM for the first time and users are noticing very slow performance when uploading projects into the system.  It is taking approx 20 minutes to upload 150 projects.  We are on RPM 4.5 with BW 7.00.  We don't have cProjects installed.  I have two questions around this:
1)  What are the speeds of uploads that other people are seeing?
2)  Is there anything we can do to speed up our uploads?  It does not take any length of time for one particular step but each project is going through numerous reads/inserts to create the project.
Here is an extract from the ST05 trace:

  • Problems Searching metadata in a Final Cut Project Uploaded to FCS

    We had an intern go through some footage that was on our FCS and load it into a Final Cut Pro project. He then went through and cut up the footage, made it an Independent Clip in Final Cut, and then Renamed the clip. He created multiple clips in Final Cut which all link back to the big master clip which is in Final Cut Server.
    I then just uploaded the Final Cut Project which then created elements for all of the independent clips that were made in Final Cut. Upon closer inspection of the Final Cut Project in FCS, I noticed that in the elements of that project, it created all of the clips that we made independent. Great....almost. Two problems arose. All of the proxy files for those elements all have the same thumbnail based on the master clip, but do have the In/Out points when looking at the proxy file. Can you get the proxy file just to encode the In/Out points and make appropriate thumbnails?
    Problem 2:
    With these elements, when I perform a search with the exact filename of the element in the Final Cut project, it will only show me the Final Cut project. I have to open up that Final Cut project and then look into the Elements Folder of that project. Is there a way to search elements of a Final Cut project where the elements are reference files or metadata of a master clip within Final Cut Server?
    If this doesn't make sense, I'll try and re-explain.

    Yes, I did, but it doesn't show the element only the project and the master clip. In order to actually find it, I have to double-click the found Final Cut Project and then look into the elements tab. I'm trying now to figure out a way to make a custom lookup in the advanced search parameters that would allow me to only search Elements of a Final Cut Pro Project.

  • File Upload Performance using IE from Windows to Unix via HTTPS

    Hi,
    Is there any performance issue uploading a file
    using IE from Windows client to UNIX server via HTTPS?
    Before that, we were using HTTP protocol and everything run smooth
    Once we change to HTTPS, we might hit the "HTTP 500 Internal server error"
    Even though this does not happen all the time but still, it affect the overall performance of our system
    We'd tested other browsers such as Netscape, Firefox, Opera and we don't hit any problem with them
    Is there any way to improve the performance?
    Is there any site i can refer to? cause i need some explaination on how this could be happen
    Thanks

    Is there any performance issue uploading a file
    using IE from Windows client to UNIX server via
    HTTPS?With HTTPS, the contents of the files are encrypted while uploading. This might hit the performance in some cases.

  • Project Server Performance report using SSRS - Report display issue

    Hi All,
    We have developed and deployed a SSRS report in Project Server BI Center using performance dashboard, but half of the report only visible i.e. it is showing horizontal scroll bar at the bottom as below. I tried to change the web part width and height but
    there is no difference. I also tried to change the performance point dashboard height and width but faced same issue. 
    Thanks in advance, Arun

    As Per me their is not way to deal this issue. When you use web part and deploy SSRS  RDL in project server horizontal bar display in the bottom if display area is not enough to display the data.
    whatever height or width you choose in web part property it will come.
    We have to live with this problem .

  • Can I work on Premiere Pro projects uploaded to the cloud?

    Hello, I am new to Creative Cloud and I am too sick to go into the office to work. I am wondering if I can work on Premiere Pro projects from home that have been saved to the Cloud. I haven't really been able to get a clear answer... Can anybody help?

    1st, moved to the program forum
    2nd, as far as I know PPro will only work with local (on your hard drive) files, not files in the Cloud... but you may be able to work locally if you copy the project and media files to your computer

  • Upload projects from cProjects to RPM

    Hi RPM experts,
    My client is working with cProjects(linked to PS) , but now they are thinking about using RPM. How should we upload existing projects from Cproject to RPM in order to they are linked?
    Is it needed first creat the item and then linked to cproject or can they be uploaded and created automatically?
    We have seen this function /RPM/CP_UPLOAD, Is it the correct one?
    Thanks everyone for your help!!
    Sara

    Hi Sara,
    This is another way to achieve the Project Upload to cProject. You can create a link between existing cProject and an existing item. Then you can upload the PS project to cProject and Item through RPM application.
    For you next query about the mass creation of Item.
    you have two options
    1) Via Portal. Using Multiple Items create functionality
    2) Via RPM_DX transaction, where you can prepare an excel sheet with basic details of the items to be created and upload this excel via this transaction, by selecting appropriate options on the selection screen.
    With these two options you can create multiple Items at a time.
    Hope this answers your query.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Piyusha

  • Open projects conversion RPM Items / cProjects and Business Partner

    Guru's,
    Do we have any SAP standard delivered objects for projects upload conversion (from excel sheets for example) for RPM Items and cProjects ? Please provide information, we have about 1000 to convert. We also have a custom tab for attributes, so wondering how to convert them without manual keyboard entries of each project.
    Also, Business partners for RPM, do we have any BAPI available ?
    thanks in advance ...
    - RPM/cProject newbie

    The bad news is that we had to write  our own custom program to upload RPM items though we used SAP provided function modules  /RPM/ITEM_MODIFY, /RPM/ACL_MODIFY, /RPM/DECISION_POINT_MODIFY,  /RPM/FIN_GROUP_MODIFY
    /RPM/CAP_GROUP_MODIFY, /RPM/SAVE_CHANGES ).

  • Adobe Premiere Elements 0.9 project crash, HELP!

    This is the first time I am using these forums, so I hope I posted this in the right sektions.
    I need help and solutions for a Project which constantly crashes on my Adobe Premiere Elements 0.9. This program has been awesome and helped me create some projects and videos successfully, up until.... well for about 3 days ago when my latest project crashed when I had just antered and checking the storyboard etc, triggering a "Serious Error" message and then it shuts down. I try again and again, but everytime I try to put something (any sound or video etc) on the storyboard and start working etc the same damn "Serious Error" message and then allways shuts down. It's allways this same and only project (which has worked fine before) that crashes like this...
    In an attempt to first solve the problem myself I went through the Premiere Elements 9 files and deleted finnished projects and automatic saved process on projects etc, but still won't work even better... The funny thing is that when I open another project (a finnished project I left saved just in case) and go through the storyboard there and messes around a little and such, it won't crash nor trigger the same message as my latest project. And that program even has some effects on every footageclip on it too, but still it works fine. Haven't touched the program or the program until and since yesterday night to give it some rest but it still won't work, the project just keeps crashing like when and since it first started a few days ago.
    I have also read through and tried some things from this Help/Troubleshoot page:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-elements/kb/troubleshoot-damaged-projects-premiere-element s.html
    I have so far been doing 1 and 2 of the "Beginning Troubleshooting", otherwise I have been reading it all and such. I am also kinda afraid to do the 3 of the first quests because I worked so hard on this project and even tough it just keeps crushing, I'm afraid to lose it. Other, I have deleted audios and such from my filegallery on my Adobe Premiere Eements, stuff I don't need anymore because its projects are already done. After I did that I also tried to create a new project just for testing. The amazing this about this is that this the new created project I created works just fine, I could do all kinds of the stuff, effects and advanced editing which I did on the same project before it started crushing. Tough I didn't save that test-project since I didn't find a reason to since it worked so good. And so the thing is that I can start and create a new project and start working and do usual stuff on it with no problem, same when I open up another project and do stuff, it all works just fine! It is just this one and only project that keeps crushing with this "Serious Error" message, all the time... Does anybody else have, or has had the same problem? What could the problem and error be and how to fix it?
    This crushing project do has some effects on every footageclip/videoclip on it, to set the right mood for the musicvideo I'm making. I am making a musicvideo, and I haven't even done the half of the project/video. The song I am making this musicvideo with is about 00:07:32 in length, and (tough this detail may have no influence or meaning) the music is Symphonic Metal. The actual file of the song is 6,96 MB in size. This is also not the first time I've done such projects with such long songs on this same program either, one of my last videos I managed to successfully make and create a musicvideo with a song which was about 13 minutes and 30 seconds in length, and I also used effects on pretty much every videoclip on that project too.
    The current filesize so far on the actual project.prel-file of my project that keeps crushing is 9.73 MB.
    I am also using Adobe Premiere Elements and doing this troubleing, crashing project on a PC, a Fujitsu Windows (I believe Windows 7, or even updated to a newer version?). It has a regular ATI-card. The computer also has 2 modems and there's still some pretty GB amount free on them. The PC's main system also has a RAM in 6.00 GB and the operative system is the 64-bites.
    In short, the PC should just fine be able to handle Adobe Premiere Elements 0.9 and all its projects, just as it has handled it all before plus all my PC games at that. So it must be something with my Adobe Premiere Elements and that specific project which is the problem, but what is the problem and the serious error and how to fix it?
    Could it help to save and create the actual video in this crashing project, delete that project then start a new project, upload and put in the videofile of the crashing project in that new project and then continue from there?
    In either cases, I need help with this. Please, help!

    Thanks so much for your reply, Steve!
    Even tough I trust you guys enough here on the official Adobe site/forums to answer those questions as best I can, I am at the same time not very fond of giving away too much information because of safety. I understand I have to If I'm to recieve the accurate answers and solution, but as this is the internet you can never know. But again, I trust you guys enough on here and thus I'll try to answer those questions as best I can, even tough I am not very good with such stuff about computers. The PC I am using is also not only mine, it is the family computer also which me and my whole family uses.
    The operating system on my computer (according to the computer propotions etc) is a 64-bites operating system and the computer/PC is also a Windows 7 Home Premium.
    The processor the computer/PC have is a Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU and the RAM is 6.00 GB. However, (and I hope I make this understandable because the computer/PC is in swedish)the subscore of RAM in the computer's Performance-Classification/Ranking is 7,5. The processor subscore is 7,3 per second. And the free space? Well, we have two modems, let's say a modem A and a modem B. Adobe Premiere Elements 0.9 is set to save all its stuff etc on modem B, while modem A is the main modem and spaces all main stuff and other things of the computer/PC. Modem A has about 314 GB of free space, while modem B has 207 GB of free space. Modem A's capacity is a total of 489 GB in which 175 GB has been used, the modems filesystem is a NTFS. Modem B is also a NTFS filesystem and its capacity is a total of 439 GB in which 232 GB has been used. And the Disk Cleanup? I believe my that latest ran it for about a few weeks ago. We also have a CCleaner also. But about the Disk Defragmenter, I have no idea. What exactly does a Disk Defragmenter do?
    You mean, entering my project that keeps crushing and simply rename it by using "Save As"? If that is what you mean, I dunnow If that actually worked. When I still tried to do stuff and edit the crashing project (tough as said, it hardly took any changes and process before it triggered that message) and then crashed and shut down, and I opened up the program again (trying to open the same project that way), it asked me If I wanted to re-create the missing process from the last crash of the same project. I tried it and it automaticly was renamed to a for example Project.copy. But when I tried to work with that it was to no futher success, the project kept crashing. I haven't renamed the project by "Save As" tough, but I doubt it'll work, I even tried to rename the actual project file in the Adobe Premiere Elements files but nope... the project keeps crashing. But also about the same question, "Save As" under a new name but in its own folder? You mean the actual project folder or Adobe Premiere Elements preview folder of the projects?
    My camcorder is pretty old by now, have had it since I turned 15, it has worked pretty good since then. Its model is a Sony Handycam, Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar OPTICAL 20x. Even tough the last thing maybe doesn't say anything, this is all I know about my camcorder, except that it is a model no. DCR-HC17E PAL. But in that Project  which keeps crashing, there are only a few actual camcorder clips used as I am making a Game-MusicVideo and most of the footage of the Video-game (actually a PC game) I'm making a musicvideo of is downloaded from Youtube mostly from a guy I asked permission for to download his recorded footage of the game. I used a Youtube downloader called ClipConverter. As I don't have a SD card I cannot make this footage myself. But some footage I recorded on my camcorder, but If I can find high quality clips and get them, I will. The other footages is actual official trailers of the PC games which also was downloaded from the net. But I can give you the stuffs filetypes and hoping that may help. The downloaded footage which was downloaded by this ClipConverter, are MP4 files. The other stuff (which were official trailers) and most of them are also MP4 files, the others are QuickTime-film files. Many of these downloaded footages and trailers are also in HD quality, at least some of them I think.
    The actual filetype ofthe footage I myself recorded with my camcorder are, well.... it says Videoclip in the file. Maybe it is AVI?
    The project settings? You mean the settings you set at first when starting as a new project? The general settings are, in editingsettings it is AVCHD 270p square pixel. This is kinda hard for me to tell since everything is in swedish in my program. But these settings has worked perfectly before, same with all files, footages and videoclips I have been using, also all the soundfiles etc. Even the actual crashing project worked perfectly before it started crashing... So why does it so suddenly start crashing now?
    The audio is a song I copied directly from its album and CD into the computer/PC and it seems to be in WMA format in filetype.
    And lastly, no I haven't rendered the timeline of the project ever, not even on my other projects. What does the rendering do and is useful for? I have very little knowledge of it. Other, I keep the Timeline mode open all the time because I can edit my videos much better with it, but perhaps that editing method make little influence of the actual problem.
    Other, yesterday when writing the post and topic, I forgot to mention that I restarded my computer right after I created a new project, that testing project. When finnished with the testing I restarted the computer. Since then I haven't touched the crashing project since now tonight, when checking its settings for this post. I am also right now trying to create and save the actual videofile of it, saving it on my computer. I'll soon see If it's successful without any crashing interruptions, plus that the video itself works and is smooth when I'll play it on Windows Media Player like all the rest of my other videos. I do this just in case I must create a new project to be able to continue with my musicvideo, as the first part of it I worked very hard on.
    Other and again, I am still puzzled about why this is even happening, that this project which worked perfectly fine before, just suddenly starts triggering that "Serious Error" message and crashes. And in this program which worked so perfect before. Has this happened to anyone else before? Has anyone else experienced the same issue I have? Is this a knowledgable issue which has solutions and ways to fix it?... :/

  • Error when running a program /RPM/FIN_PLAN_INT

    when executing the program "/RPM/FIN_PLAN_INT", I'm getting an error stating as "Category ID does not exist for item.Instantiate categories first"
    This error is hitting for only 4 Items in list of all 173 Item. Hence the Financial cost are not getting update for all the items when executing the program. The DB update failed.
    I checked the financial Category IDs and its maintained properly and working fine with other Items. Why this is happening for only the 4 items? Am I missing something in config?
    Please experts provide me some valuable suggesions.

    Hi;
    When you define and edit the mapping between the project management role function ID and the financial planning view, category, or group. You can also decide on whether the cost or revenue rate is to be considered for the financial information calculation.
    1. Execute report /RPM/PLAN_INT_PREP to create financial and capacity categories and groups for the bucket or the portfolio items based on the parameters mentioned in the selection screen.
    2. Execute report /RPM/FIN_PLAN_INT to perform the financial planning for a portfolio item for the different portfolio items based on the parameters mentioned in the selection screen.
    Prerequisite: For the portfolio item, you must have executed report /RPM/PLAN_INT_PREP before.
    3. Execute report /RPM/BUCKET_ROLLUP to roll up the financial data for the different categories and groups of the portfolio items to its higher-level buckets.
    Hope this help you.
    Best Regards.

  • Looking for help to improve Airport performance over LAN (WAN is fine)

    Ok, I've read through several threads on this forum that address problems people are having with slow performance with Airport. I've also checked out all of the Apple KBs that address Airport, recommended settings. Unfortunately my issue isn't addressed by anything I've read to date.
    The bottom line is that both download and upload performance between any of my devices and the internet is fine, no problems. I am paying for 30MBps download from Verizon FIOS, I routinely get 20, and I'm guessing that the delta is Verizon's problem, not my network's. However, streaming from my media server to another device on the wireless LAN is a different story entirely. I get somewhere between 1 and 2 MBps, tops, and this poses big problems for streaming music and movies.
    My network is comprised of 3 Airport Expresses. One of them is a MC414LL/A model. This one is connected to my Verizon FIOS Actiontec MI424WR router (which I have set to bridge-mode according to the instructions provided at http://www.dslreports.com/forum/r17679150-Howto-make-ActionTec-MI424WR-a-network -bridge) via CAT5 ethernet. This Airport Express is set to "create a network" network mode, "802.11 only (5GHz) - 802.11b/g/n" radio mode (although I have also tried "802.11 only (5GHz) - 802.11/n only (2.4 GHz)" radio mode, and this didn't solve the problem). Finally, I have chosen 2.4 and 5GHz channels that have little interference (2 and 161 respectively). My other two Airport Expresses are MB321LL/A models and are set to "Extend a wireless network" network mode, with the 5GHz network chosen as the network that they extend. (I have tried switching over to having them extend the 2.4GHz network, and performance gets worse, not better.)
    I am using a late 2009 Mac Mini as a media server. It is connected to the 5GHz network (though I've tried the 2.4GHz network), and it runs XBMC and JRiver media servers (not simultaneously, either one or the other.) I have a PS3 and a Sony Blu Ray player, each plugged into one of the MB321LL/A Airport Expresses via CAT5 ethernet, and I stream media to each of these devices via one or the other media server (both devices are DNLA-enabled). My Mac Mini has a 3TB external hard drive connected via FireWire 800, which is where all of my media resides. In addition to streaming media over the network, I have a TV plugged directly into the Mac Mini. When I play media to this TV, performance is outstanding, so I'm confident my poor performance to the PS3 and Sony BDP is a network issue, not an issue with the external drive.
    Although my building has several other wireless networks, only one of them is 5 GHz, and it isn't using channel 161. The 2.4 GHz band is crowded with several networks, although channel 2 is usually in the clear. I have tried switching let Airport choose a channel automatically, and I haven't noticed a difference. It has occurred to me that the problem could be with how I bridged the Verizon Actiontec router and not with any of the Airports, but I don't get any errors (e.g. double NAT errors, which some people who have bridged improperly get), and I am pleased with my download and upload speeds to the internet. The issue is only on my LAN. Finally, yes, all of my firmware is up to date, version 7.6.3 on all three Airport Expresses.
    Can anyone offer me suggestions for how I can get better performance streaming media from my server to the two playback devices? Since all 3 Airport Expresses support 5GHz, I'd have thought I'd be able to take advantage of 802.11n speeds when streaming between them. (MB321LL/A  supports "Draft N", but does this matter?) With the settings that I'm currently using, I can't stream faster than 2MBps (and that's on a good day), which is below what I ought to be able to get rom 802.11g. This is especially problematic when I try to stream hi res (96 MHz / 24 bit or higher)  music files, whether uncompressed or compressed. I hear awful pulsing sounds through my speakers. If I pause the track and let my streaming device buffer, I might get 10 or 15 seconds of clean playback, but then it starts the pulsing again as soon as the buffered music is finished playing. On occasion when I stream music from my iPhone via Airplay to one of the Airport Expresses, I get clean playback most of the time, but on occasion the music cuts out. (It's my understanding the Airplay requires ~800 Kbps, which seems consistent with my LAN speed usually being between 1 and 2 Mbps but sometimes dropping).
    I have iStubler and I've used the Apple network diagnostics -- these are the tools that led me to choose channels 2 and 161 for 2.4 and 5GHz respectively. I'm sure I could be using these tools to learn more about my network's performance, but I'm sure what to look for.
    Thanks for your suggestions.

    Ok, cool. I'm really glad that the issue has been isolated. Thanks a ton for your insight!
    Hopefully I can find a spot where the signal strength of the hub is noticably better but that isn't too inconvenient for an ethernet run. My Sony BDP, which is the device connected to the problem basestation, has wifi capability, so I could always ditch the ethernet cable if the best spot for the basestation doesn't permit a cable run. But I'm aware that ethernet usually offers faster transfer speeds than wifi. Moreover, I'm not sure that the Sony BDP supports 5GHz. It might be a 2.4GHz-only device, in which case I'll have new interference issues to contend with, since like I said in my original post, there are several other 2.4GHz networks in my building.
    Anyhow, now that I understand the problem, I can figure out a solution. Thanks again.

  • QUERY PERFORMANCE AND DATA LOADING PERFORMANCE ISSUES

    WILL REWARD FULL POINT S
    REGARDS
    GURU

    BW Back end
    Some Tips -
    1)Identify long-running extraction processes on the source system. Extraction processes are performed by several extraction jobs running on the source system. The run-time of these jobs affects the performance. Use transaction code SM37 — Background Processing Job Management — to analyze the run-times of these jobs. If the run-time of data collection jobs lasts for several hours, schedule these jobs to run more frequently. This way, less data is written into update tables for each run and extraction performance increases.
    2)Identify high run-times for ABAP code, especially for user exits. The quality of any custom ABAP programs used in data extraction affects the extraction performance. Use transaction code SE30 — ABAP/4 Run-time Analysis — and then run the analysis for the transaction code RSA3 — Extractor Checker. The system then records the activities of the extraction program so you can review them to identify time-consuming activities. Eliminate those long-running activities or substitute them with alternative program logic.
    3)Identify expensive SQL statements. If database run-time is high for extraction jobs, use transaction code ST05 — Performance Trace. On this screen, select ALEREMOTE user and then select SQL trace to record the SQL statements. Identify the time-consuming sections from the results. If the data-selection times are high on a particular SQL statement, index the DataSource tables to increase the performance of selection (see no. 6 below). While using ST05, make sure that no other extraction job is running with ALEREMOTE user.
    4)Balance loads by distributing processes onto different servers if possible. If your site uses more than one BW application server, distribute the extraction processes to different servers using transaction code SM59 — Maintain RFC Destination. Load balancing is possible only if the extraction program allows the option
    5)Set optimum parameters for data-packet size. Packet size affects the number of data requests to the database. Set the data-packet size to optimum values for an efficient data-extraction mechanism. To find the optimum value, start with a packet size in the range of 50,000 to 100,000 and gradually increase it. At some point, you will reach the threshold at which increasing packet size further does not provide any performance increase. To set the packet size, use transaction code SBIW — BW IMG Menu — on the source system. To set the data load parameters for flat-file uploads, use transaction code RSCUSTV6 in BW.
    6)Build indexes on DataSource tables based on selection criteria. Indexing DataSource tables improves the extraction performance, because it reduces the read times of those tables.
    7)Execute collection jobs in parallel. Like the Business Content extractors, generic extractors have a number of collection jobs to retrieve relevant data from DataSource tables. Scheduling these collection jobs to run in parallel reduces the total extraction time, and they can be scheduled via transaction code SM37 in the source system.
    8). Break up your data selections for InfoPackages and schedule the portions to run in parallel. This parallel upload mechanism sends different portions of the data to BW at the same time, and as a result the total upload time is reduced. You can schedule InfoPackages in the Administrator Workbench.
    You can upload data from a data target (InfoCube and ODS) to another data target within the BW system. While uploading, you can schedule more than one InfoPackage with different selection options in each one. For example, fiscal year or fiscal year period can be used as selection options. Avoid using parallel uploads for high volumes of data if hardware resources are constrained. Each InfoPacket uses one background process (if scheduled to run in the background) or dialog process (if scheduled to run online) of the application server, and too many processes could overwhelm a slow server.
    9). Building secondary indexes on the tables for the selection fields optimizes these tables for reading, reducing extraction time. If your selection fields are not key fields on the table, primary indexes are not much of a help when accessing data. In this case it is better to create secondary indexes with selection fields on the associated table using ABAP Dictionary to improve better selection performance.
    10)Analyze upload times to the PSA and identify long-running uploads. When you extract the data using PSA method, data is written into PSA tables in the BW system. If your data is on the order of tens of millions, consider partitioning these PSA tables for better performance, but pay attention to the partition sizes. Partitioning PSA tables improves data-load performance because it's faster to insert data into smaller database tables. Partitioning also provides increased performance for maintenance of PSA tables — for example, you can delete a portion of data faster. You can set the size of each partition in the PSA parameters screen, in transaction code SPRO or RSCUSTV6, so that BW creates a new partition automatically when a threshold value is reached.
    11)Debug any routines in the transfer and update rules and eliminate single selects from the routines. Using single selects in custom ABAP routines for selecting data from database tables reduces performance considerably. It is better to use buffers and array operations. When you use buffers or array operations, the system reads data from the database tables and stores it in the memory for manipulation, improving performance. If you do not use buffers or array operations, the whole reading process is performed on the database with many table accesses, and performance deteriorates. Also, extensive use of library transformations in the ABAP code reduces performance; since these transformations are not compiled in advance, they are carried out during run-time.
    12)Before uploading a high volume of transaction data into InfoCubes, activate the number-range buffer for dimension IDs. The number-range buffer is a parameter that identifies the number of sequential dimension IDs stored in the memory. If you increase the number range before high-volume data upload, you reduce the number of reads from the dimension tables and hence increase the upload performance. Do not forget to set the number-range values back to their original values after the upload. Use transaction code SNRO to maintain the number range buffer values for InfoCubes.
    13)Drop the indexes before uploading high-volume data into InfoCubes. Regenerate them after the upload. Indexes on InfoCubes are optimized for reading data from the InfoCubes. If the indexes exist during the upload, BW reads the indexes and tries to insert the records according to the indexes, resulting in poor upload performance. You can automate the dropping and regeneration of the indexes through InfoPackage scheduling. You can drop indexes in the Manage InfoCube screen in the Administrator Workbench.
    14)IDoc (intermediate document) archiving improves the extraction and loading performance and can be applied on both BW and R/3 systems. In addition to IDoc archiving, data archiving is available for InfoCubes and ODS objects.

  • Video size issues/slow performance after update to CC 2014

    Hello everyone,
    I'm not an editor by trade, so please bear with me here. I've spent the last few days searching around for an answer and haven't been able to come up with much.
    I'm on a late 2011 Macbook Pro, 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7, 4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3, AMD Radeon HD 6750M 512 MB, Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5 (11G63b).
    I spent a month cutting my first little experimental feature which the assistant editor set up for me (and who is currently away).
    My computer isn't rocket fast, but I was able to complete the first few passes on Premiere CC (7.2.2?) with few major issues.
    About a week ago, I upgraded to Premiere CC 2014 8.0.
    I immediately noticed that my footage went from this:
    To this:
    (The specifics of the footage:
    As you might be able to tell, we shot very old school VHS to help sell the 90's setting. It was a nightmare to find the best way to export it all. I'm still not sure if we did this entirely properly -- and hopefully it's not the cause of these issues. Also, I know VHS is only SD -- we chose to import at the utmost quality, i.e. 1920x1440 and ProRes 422, because more of the image detail was present in low-light.)
    I found that I had to select all the clips in each timeline, right click, and select the 'Set to Frame Size' to have the video full frame once again. Then I had to render everything.
    As I tried to resume my edit, the performance was much slower. Playback is a nightmare. I get the beach ball of death constantly. It would take several minutes to save the project. And it started to crash about once an hour on top of everything.
    But I continued to work for the last eight days, hoping that I'd be able to rectify this somehow.
    I cleared the cache with no luck.
    I read that I could uncheck 'Composite in Linear Color' to make it faster, but that wasn't an issue in the last build.
    My playback and paused resolution is 1/4.
    I read that I should update my OS to OS X Mavericks, but that keeps crashing too! Haha.
    I understand that my system isn't the best, but I just want my project to perform as well as it did on Premiere CC before the update.
    I just spoke to an Adobe tech who basically told me that there wasn't a solution here besides reverting back to Premiere CC from CC 2014 -- or buying a new Macbook.
    But there has to be a way that I can get the same performance that I did before the upgrade, right? I have a feeling something happened to how CC 2014 is using the existing footage.
    (Also, I noticed that clips where I increased the zoom, i.e. 100% to 110%, were back at their original size. And instead of saying 100%, it was now saying 300%. I'm assuming this is because of the 'Set to Frame Size' setting, but this wasn't the case on Premiere CC.)
    Does anyone have any ideas what I can do here?
    Here's my sequence settings on CC 2014:
    And on CC:
    For some reason, portions of this window are grayed out, and not in CC 2014. Not sure if this has anything to do with the issue.
    Thanks a ton in advance everyone! I really can't afford to lose 8 days worth of work, so any help would be greatly greatly appreciated!
    I'll be more than happy to provide additional info.
    I'm really looking to find out, definitively, if my only two options are: a) go back to Premiere CC and lose my recent work, or b) buy a new laptop, which I can't afford.
    (As a side question, is there any way I can transfer my recent work from CC 2014 to CC? I understand it's not backwards-compatible, but there has to be at least a partial solution.)
    Best,
    Jon

    Thanks for the quick response!
    So just this right (to DV):
    I scrubbed through really quick, seems like it just may have worked.

  • Help: document migration RPM 4.5 to PPM 5.0

    Hello,
    I am looking for a solution regarding the document migration from RPM 4.5 to PPM 5.0 (document stored in a DMS Sap content server).
    Manually I have no problem for creating documents in PPM (config ok) but given the fact that I have a large number of document I want to do this migration automatically.
    I choose the option to do that by creating an ABAP program... but by this way I have big issues. I try to do that by calling method CREATE_DOC_IN_FOL from /RPM/CL_UI_DOC_LOGIC class but I have a strange return code... :-(
    --> at this point, I think that is impossible to use this method to do what I want...
    Do someone face with similar questions ?
    Is there another way to do this document migration ?
    Already thank's...

    Hello Ravi,
    I want to migrate pdf documents stored in a DMS.
    I use KPRO customizing to define a new content repository.  (the old one as "DMS" as STORAGE_CATEGORY entity attribute of the default content model but for PPM the value has to be set to "CFF")
    In our migration RPM projects are copied in new PPM project.  So I want to link to this new projects the documents of the old project... in another content repository.
    In my investigation I tried to insert my code "call method CREATE_DOC_IN_FOL" in a SAP method called when a project is modified (IF_EX_RPM_PROJ_CUST_FIELDS~ATTRIBUTE_MODIFY)... and there, my coding works !
    ... but for sure I don't want to insert my coding there given the fact that I have a huge amount of documents.
    So, a this point, I'm looking forward trying to reproduce the same context as in this "exit" which is inside the portal.
    My coding that doesn't works looks like that :
    - retrieve project item (table /RPM/ITEM_D)
    - load object managers
      lr_rpm_obj_manager = cl_rpm_obj_manager=>get_instance( ).
      lr_ppm_obj_manager = /rpm/cl_obj_manager=>get_instance( ).
       CALL METHOD lr_rpm_obj_manager->load_projects
    -   CALL METHOD LR_DOC_LOG->GET_DOCUMENTS_FOR_BASEOBJ  (get document hierarchy... it works / this is only to test the object)
    -   lr_doc_log->create_doc_in_fol (--> this doesn't works)
