SAP data extraction mapping, where the JCO files need to be copied?

Hi All,
I have the following environment.
OWB client: Windows7
OWB server: Linux x86_64
SAP Server: Windows Server 2003
I need to create OWB mapping to extract data from SAP to Oracle target.
Please let me know what are the JCO files required and where do i need to copy them?
Do i need to copy them on both the owb client and server or is it enough to copy them on the client machine alone?
Thanks and Regards,
Pnreddy.

OWB client isn't supported on Windows 64-bit, just wanted to let you know since you mentioned Windows 7..
For the windows you will require 3 files sapjcorfc.dll, librfc32.dll and sapjco.jar. You can get them from the SAP install cd or download them from http://service.sap.com/connectors for your SAP version. You will need to have a SAPnet account to do that.
You can place the files sapjcorfc.dll and sapjco.jar in OWB_HOME\owb\lib\int, and librfc32.dll in OWB_HOME\owb\bin and also set the PATH to reference this directories.
For linux you will need librfcccm.so, libsapjcorfc.so and sapjco.jar. Also set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to reference these files locations.
If you are only extracting metadata from SAP then you need it only on the OWB client but if you plan to execute ABAP programs on the SAP system you will need to set it up on the server side.

Instances where the control file needs to be backed up

Oracle Version --> 11G
Control file needs to backed up
1. When you add or rename datafiles
2. Add or Drop redo log members
3. Dropping tablespaces
4. After any ALTER DATABASE commandAre there any more instances where we have to backup the control file?

Data Extraction or IDOC to flat file

hi,
I have a project to create a flat file from SAP, for an external legacy system. There are 3 requirement.
What approach should I take. Simple data extraction OR Idoc to flat file.
There are 4 requirements:
1. first time extract all data.
2. on subsequent run, extract only changed & new records
3. if in SAP table, a record is deleted, then marked deleted in flat file.
What approach should I take if I use data extraction.
Thanks.

I read your question, my first thought would be to look at where the data is going?
What are the data requirements of the legacy system. IDOCs can speed up the development related to pushing the data out from SAP. Using ALE and change pointers you can automatically pass out the delta with a limited amount of development.
However, the receiving system then needs to parse the IDOC data. depending on the IDOC you are working with this can be a challenge especially if the legacy developer doesn't get IDOCs.
Sometimes its easier to collect and write the data from SAP using "simple data extraction". The data is more readily organized into a format the receiving system is expecting.
You can also pass the idoc to a middleware maping application if one is available and do the SAP to legacy mapping there.
Cheers

HT5252 I tried to change my metadata date and got this Aperture was not able to adjust the date and time of the original file "01769_p_h13ajyrm4bm0944.jpg" because it is locked or you do not have permission to modify it.

I tried to change the metadata date. It changed the date on my photo, but when I checked the box that said "also change my original file", it gave me this error message.
Unable to change original file. Aperture was not able to adjust the date and time of the original file “01769_p_h13ajyrm4bm0944.jpg” because it is locked or you do not have permission to modify it.
Wassup?

What is your Aperture version? The older versions of Aperture 3 had a problem to apply Metadata changes to the original file.
If you are using the current version Aperture 3.4.5, try to repair the permissions on your Aperture library, if you have not already done so:
Launch Aperture with the key combination ⌥⌘ held down and select "Repair Permissions" from the First Aid PAnel, that will appear.
If that does not help, post back with more information on your original files - are the referenced or managed? Where is your Aperture library located? Since when do you have this problem? And what did you do directly before noticed the problem for the first time?

I had a repair done at the apple store where the replaced my hard drive and copied my other hard drive over to the new one. Everything is fine except the time machine wont reconnect to my old file and is trying create a new file but not enough space?

I had a repair done at the apple store where the replaced my hard drive and copied my other hard drive over to the new one. Everything is fine except the time machine wont reconnect to my old file and is trying create a new file but not there is not enough space for both files files? Do I need to do something to have it continue to update my old file instead of recreating a new one?

Depending on what version of OSX you're running, and how the data was transferred, you may be out of luck.
If you're running Lion, and your backups were made to a directly-connected external HD (ie, not a Time Capsule or other network location), you may be able to get Time Machine to "associate" the new disk with the old backups. See #B6 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting, especially the pink box there.
If you're running Snow Leopard, you might be able to do a full system restore of your backups to the new HD. See Time Machine - Frequently Asked Question #14 for detailed instructions. That should leave a "trail" that Time Machine can follow to "associate" the new drive with the old backups. Unfortunately, that doesn't always work, and there's no way to do it manually, as there is with Lion.

How can I find out where the Library files currently used by iTunes are located?

I have had a bit of a nightmare sorting out my iTunes files so I have various versions of Library files all over the place. How can I tell where the Library file that iTunes is currently using is located? In Preferences I can see the Library "Name", but I don't think that is much help. Preferences also shows where my i-Tunes media folder is but not where the Library files are.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Ah, I was assuming you would search in Finder and display some details. All alternative approach is to Option start iTunes and click the Choose option. It should show a file selection box targeted at the folder of the currently active library.

Aperture was not able to adjust the date and time of the master file "2008-06-22 at 14-41-14.jpg" because it has a format that does not permit date modification.

I can't seem to find a way to update the date/time of a master file. There is a format issue but I can't seem to figure out how to correct it.

Can you post an ipconfig /all from the server and the DC?

How do I get the numbers ipad app to plot a graph of dates against values, where the most recent date is on the right of the graph, but the most recent date is at the top rather than bottom of the rows in the table?

How do I get the numbers ipad app to plot a graph of dates against values, where the most recent date is on the right of the graph, but the most recent date is at the top rather than bottom of the rows in the table?
Also how can it be a line graph without plotting a circle at each value?
Thanks this is very frustrating

Make a copy of the table and produce your Line chart or Bar chart from the copy. Sort the copy into the order you want to see in your chart.
Alternately you could use a Scatter Chart...

I have Prem. Elements 12. I am trying to add audio media. I know where the audio files are located (using GET INFO while in iTunes), and when I try to add certain audio files, some are accepted and some are not. In one case, when I opened a particular folder, the song was not listed, even tho' the song is there when using Windows Explorer. This happens with mp3 and mp4 and just wav files. Some audio are accepted, most are not. I get that codec is not installed error message, too.

Perhaps it would be helpful for you to view the page source code of this page

FMS - change directory where the log files are located?

I want to change the logs files directory from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3.5/logs
to:
D:\fmsLogs
Please halp me to understand...
in adobe in:
Home / Flash Media Server 3.5 Configuration and Administration Guide / XML configuration files reference
it says:
in Logger.xml in Directory
Specifies the directory where the log files are located.
By default, the log files are located in the logs directory in the server installation directory.
Example:
<Directory>${LOGGER.LOGDIR}</Directory>
what this meens: ${LOGGER.LOGDIR} ?
in order to change the logs files directory from:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Flash Media Server 3.5/logs
to:
D:\fmsLogs
do i need to write this:
<Directory>D:\fmsLogs</Directory>
or what do i neet to write?
it is totaly not understandable from this example...
big thanks for any halp
cheinan

You can change LOGGER.LOGDIR in fms.ini to your preferred location i.e. D:\fmsLogs and restart FMS.
Now if you want to change for individual logs - you can change in Logger.xml - by default logger.xml will use value from fms.ini

I cannot play my rented movie because itunes cannot locate where the original file, has anyone face this problem before? Where can I find the location of the downloaded movie?

What did you use to download it with? iPad? iPhone? Computer?
If it's an iPad/iPhone, play it using the videos app.
If on the computer, look on the left side of iTunes in the library under movies.

Metagen is skipped sometimes complaining because all output files are up-to-date with respect to the input files

Hi,
In one of my dll (VS2010), the process Skipping target "MetaGen" because all output files are up-to-date with respect to the input files.
it is at random. I have checked the time stamps of the dll and metagen.write.1.tlog both having the time stamp on the failed build. But all files in release folder did not have the same time. They are one hour earlier than the dll
and the metagen.write.1.tlog.
On the good build it said the input file is is newer than output file ".\Release\\metagen.write.1.tlog" and allfiles in the release folder have same time stamp.
Any clue to solve this ?
Regards,

You dont say how you are connected to PC .
This is how i copy data .

What format do the Quicktime files need to be in?

okay so i just got a mac. haven't had time to play with it much. but quick easy (prolly dumb) question.
what format does the quicktime file need to be in (both audio and video)?
and
how do i get my movies into that format?
*i do have handbrake as well.
Thanks

Where did your files come from and what are you trying to do with them.
BTW, if what you are trying to do involves starting with commercial, copy protected DVDs, using HB, and then making copies of those commercial DVDs, we can not help you here under the Apple Forum Terms of Use. Sorry.
If your movies were actually created by you or a friend, we will be glad to try and help you figure things out.

BODS 3.1 : SAP R/3 data extraction -What is the difference in 2 dataflows?

Hi.
Can anyone advise as to what is the difference in using the data extraction flow for extracting Data from SAP R/3 ?
1)DF1 >> SAPR/3 (R3/Table -query transformation-dat file) >>query transformation >> target
This ABAP flow generates a ABAP program and a dat file.
We can also upload this program and run jobs as execute preloaded option on datastore.
This works fine.
2) We also can pull the SAP R/3 table directly.
DF2>>SAPR/3 table (this has a red arrow like in OHD) >> Query transformation >> target
THIS ALSO Works fine. And we are able to see the data directly into oracle.
Which can also be scheduled on a job.
BUT am unable to understand the purpose of using the different types of data extraction flows.
When to use which type of flow for data extraction.
Advantage / disadvantage - over the 2 data flows.
What we are not understanding is that :
if we can directly pull data from R/3 table directly thro a query transformation into the target table,
why use the Flow of creating a R/3 data flow,
and then do a query transformation again
and then populate the target database?
There might be some practical reasons for using these 2 different types of flows in doing the data extraction. Which I would like to understand. Can anyone advise please.
Many thanks

Hi Jeff.
Greetings. And many thanks for your response.
Generally we pull the entire SAP R/3 table thro query transformation into oracle.
For which we use R/3 data flow and the ABAP program, which we upload on the R/3 system
so as to be able to use the option of Execute preloaded - and run the jobs.
Since we do not have any control on our R/3 servers nor we have anyone on ABAP programming,
we do not do anything at the SAP R/3 level
I was doing this trial and error testing on our Worflows for our new requirement
WF 1 : which has some 15 R/3 TABLES.
For each table we have created a separate Dataflow.
And finally in between in some dataflows, wherein, the SAP tables which had lot of rows, i decided to pull it directly,
by-passing the ABAP flow.
And still the entire work flow and data extraction happens ok.
In fact i tried creating a new sample data flow and tested.
Using direct download and - and also execute preloaded.
I did not see any major difference in time taken for data extraction;
Because anyhow we pull the entire Table, then choose whatever we want to bring into oracle thro a view for our BO reporting or aggregate and then bring data as a table for Universe consumption.
Actually, I was looking at other options to avoid this ABAP generation - and the R/3 data flow because we are having problems on our dev and qa environments - giving delimiter errors. Whereas in production it works fine. Production environment is a old set up of BODS 3.1. QA and Dev are relatively new enviornments of BODS. Which is having this delimiter error.
I did not understand how to resolve it as per this post : https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/ideas/2596
And trying to resolve this problem, I ended up with the option of trying to pull directly the R/3 table. Without using ABAP workflow. Just by trial and error of each and every drag and drop option. Because we had to urgently do a POC and deliver the data for the entire e recruiting module of SAP.
I dont know whether i could do this direct pulling of data - for the new job which i have created,
which has 2 workflows with 15 Dataflows in each worflow.
And and push this job into production.
And also whether i could by-pass this ABAP flow and do a direct pulling of R/3 data, in all the Dataflows in the future for ANY of our SAP R/3 data extraction requirement. And this technical understanding is not clear to us as regards the difference between the 2 flows. And being new to this whole of ETL - I just wanted to know the pros and cons of this particular data extraction.
As advised I shall check the schedules for a week, and then we shall move it probably into production.
Thanks again.
Kind Regards
Indu
