SAP ME - Can you use a single MSSQL instance on a single server?

Hi,
We need to build a demo system with the minimum of hardware so would like to use just one server.
The build would be Netweaver 7.4, ME 15 & MII 15 Using SQL 2012 as the database.
The question is, can I use a single instance of SQL or do I need to install two ? One for netweaver and one for ME ?
The ME database install guide states the following warning:
CAUTION
SAP ME does not use the same collation as the SAP NetWeaver database and server. Do
not use the SQL4SAP.vbs provided with MSSQL software to install the SQL Server database
software.
Does this mean I would install one instance for Netweaver using SQL4SAP.vbs and a second one (using a different port number) for ME using the standard installer ?
Or can I install just one database engine instance and configure the collation for each database individually ?
Also what about any of the other settings, eg Filestream and the XA install ?
Thanks for any guide that you can give.
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
We have this exact scenario on one of our internal sandboxes. Install a single SQLServer 2012 (we installed Enterprise version) instance and create the NW, ME WIP, ME ODS, and ME GODS databases separately, with different collations. We also have XA configured on the server, don't know about Filestream.
We are running a 2 CPU 8GB VM instance, I would recommend at least 12GB as 8 is minimal.
Regards, Steve

Can you use hints in mssql ?

HI,
When use abap sql in mssql DB,can i use like %_hints oracle 'index(csks"J")'. ?
Is it helpful?

Hi,
in ABAP you can write "native SQL" of your database system within tags :
EXEC SQL.
" Your MSSQL code here
ENDEXEC.
Than here you can use everything you want .. an index hint or etc.
But this code works only for that database system. If the database will change someday
this code can not be used.
So the best way is using Open SQL of ABAP.
if you want to use an index go to se11 open your table than click "indexes" button to display secondary indexes
and display fields in that indexes.
Use this fields in your select statement on topmost of WHERE clause with the same sequence in index.
I hope it helps.

Can you use *Active Directory* in *Linux* as a directory server?

This is a simple question that I just couldn't find a straight answer to on Google, Oracle forums, Metalink, etc. ... when I use the Net Configuration Assistant on my Linux server, the only option that exists for Directory Usage Configuration -> Directory Type is Oracle Internet Directory. In Windows, however, OID and Active Directory appear as the available options. I can't find an obvious answer to whether AD will work in Linux as a directory option. Does it? If not, is there an add-on or option that I'm missing? Our company only uses Linux hosts for Oracle purposes, and only has Active Directory for directory usage.
I was also thinking of tweaking ldap.ora and sqlnet.ora to utilize our Active Directory server(s), but I wasn't sure how to manually configure those. Is there a paper out there for more information on such a thing?
My intention is to synchronize our users in Oracle with AD, so there will be no password and maintenance discrepancies. All of our other applications (Windows, websites, GUIs, etc.) authenticate against AD, and I wanted to tie Oracle in to wrap up user maintenance up in a nice, neat package.
Thanks ahead of time.

Any thoughts on this? I'm kind of bumping it back to the top, because I still can't find any definitive evidence regarding this anywhere on the 'net. Am I phrasing something in a hazy manner? Is there something I can clarify?
Thanks.

Can you use a Windows-only printer over a print server?

I recently found a large format printer from Ricoh that has great reviews and prints postscript with laser speed/economy with some new inkjet technology only they have - perfect for a home design office and a LOT cheaper than a typical tabloid laser.
Problem is, it's only compatible with Windows systems...
Someone told me it's possible to get a print server to link my Airport Extreme networked Powerbook G4 to this incompatible printer but i haven't seen any print servers that have a Ricoh print driver listed in their specs. Am I out of luck or could it still work with some kind of generic driver or something? Thanks in advance for any guidance you can offer.
Printer is the Ricoh Aficio G7500

Print servers don't use a driver. The protocols that communicate with them are standard protocols handled by the OS (Windows, OS X, linux).
If the Ricoh is a postscript printer, it's only compatible with Windows systems isn't quite right. Any postscript level II or III printer is compatible with OS X. The problem may be that the plugins used by OS X's print dialog (Copies & pages menu options) for special features like alternate paper tray may not be provided, so you'll have access to fewer features.
But you say it's an inkjet technology printer - most of those aren't postscript printers, and that Does Require a driver for OS X.
The only other option I can think of is a Windows computer set up to be postscript RIP/printer server:

Can you use Time Capsule as a print server for printers connected via Ethernet or wirelessly?

Can you use Time Capsule as a print server for printers connected via Ethernet or wirelessly?
I know that it works marvelous for printers connected via USB, but I'd like to know if you can use it as a more general print server.

No, you can't, but what do you expect to gain by doing so?
The main advantage of the print server is to provide multi-user network access to a printer that typically only supports a single connection. Since, by definition, your printer already has a network connection and can be used by multiple users.

Can you use color splash on a photo that was edited in black and white or do you have to mask the photo before editing it in black and white?

can you use color splash on a photo that was edited in black and white or do you have to mask the photo before editing it in black and white?

I think you are asking whether it makes an difference whether you create the mask before or after you edit the black & white version. The answer is that since the color version and the b&w version are on different layers (as seen here), it makes no difference when you edit the b&w version.
Also consider another technique that separates the color element in the image. Here, the area surrounding the color image is a line interpretation of the scene, similar to a Tone Line Conversion, a technique that was created with film many years ago. (I am so old, I still remember how it was done.) This is how to get the result similar to the one shown above but with a line illustration created in Photoshop replacing the b&w layer version:
1. Open an image. This technique is more successful if the image you select has many clearly defined edges.
2. Make a duplicate layer. (Cmd+J). It becomes Layer 1
3. With Layer 1 chosen, go to Filter>Blur>Smart Blur. Set the Quality to High and the Mode to Edge Only. The default settings are Radius 3.0, Threshold 25.0. To increase the amount of detail in the line conversion, raise the Radius setting. Use the white-on-black illustration within Smart Blur as a guide. Then click OK.
4. The line illustration will appear as white lines in a black background. To change this to black-on-white, choose Image>Adjustments>Invert.
5. Insert a new layer below Layer 1. It will serve as the background for the line illustration. To do this, hold down the Command key while clicking on the New Layer symbol at the bottom of the Layers panel. It is the second symbol from the right. It will become Layer 2.
6. Fill this new layer with a light color. To do this, click on the Foreground Color symbol in the Tools section. It will open the Color Picker. Choose a light color and click OK.
7. Choose Edit>Fill. Use: Foreground Color. Mode: Normal. Opacity: 100% and click OK. Layer 2 will fill with the color. Although it will not appear in the image because Layer 1 is above it, a quick check of the Layers panel will confirm that the color you chose has filled Layer 2.
8. Remove the white area from in Layer 1. Go to Layer 1. Choose the Magic Wand tool. Uncheck the Contiguous box in the Options Bar and click in a white area of the image. Next, click the Delete key. Choose Select>Deselect to remove the marching ants.
9. (Optional) You may now change the line illustration in Layer 1 from black to a dark color compatible with the color in Layer 2. To choose the color, click on the Foreground Color symbol in the Tools section. It will open the Color Picker. Choose a suitable dark color and click OK. While in Layer 1, click the first symbol next to the word Lock: in the Layers panel above Layer 1. This will prevent the dark color from appearing in the blank area of Layer 1. Choose Edit>Fill. Use: Foreground Color. Mode: Normal. Opacity: 100% and click OK. The black lines will change to the dark color you chose.
10. Combine Layers1 and 2: While in Layer 1, choose Layer>Merge Down. The layers are combined into a single layer called Layer 2.
11. Add a black mask to Layer 2 by clicking on the Mask symbol at the bottom of the Layers panel. It is the symbol to the right of the fx symbol. Where you would like full color objects to appear within the line rendition, paint in white on the black mask with a brush set to either soft-edge or hard-edge as the illustration and your taste dictate.

Can you use the same Apple ID on more than one MacBook Pro for updates and applications?

We just got a few new MacBook Pro's and when I went to install updates it said I need to make an Apple ID. Can you use the same Apple ID and email address for that Apple ID on multiple machines, or do I need them both to be unique per machine? I'm not sure how that works when you have multiple machines.

An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services. So you can use the same Apple ID for up to 10 Macs associated with it.
To create an Apple ID you need to enter your full name and your primary email address as your Apple ID. This will be used as the contact email address for your account.

Can you use soundtrack pro's loops in your youtube videos or do you need to purchase a license since it is royalty free?

Can you use soundtrack pro's loops in your youtube videos or do you need to purchase a license since it is royalty free?
I understand they are royalty free, I am just confused about using the actual loops for films, videos, etc - if there is a special license you must purchase or what?
Yes sure, it's a library and may be used a lot - but is it legal or against agreement?
And to clarify - what about music I create on the program , that is ok right?

If you purchased the software you have the right to use the loops that came with the software in the software to make whatever you want.

Can you use the Airport Express A1264 as an AP and a DHCP server at the same time?

Can you use the Airport Express A1264 as an Access Point and a DHCP server at the same time?
I would like to use it as a DHCP server and AP at the same time in my LAN (no internet, just local machines through a few switches). I was lead to belive this could be the case from a few networking friends that haven't been friendly enough to help me out setting it up.

I need it to act as a dLink/Cisco/Linksys/etc basic wifi router, in the fact that you can access it via wifi, and it will spit out DHCP addresses (192.168.1.xxx) to everything wired downstream of it.
I want to simultaniously provide a Wifi connection and a LAN connection at the same time
Thanks,

How can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

how can you use iMessage between 3 iPads with 3 different users but only one Apple ID?

No you do not need separate Apple ID's in order to use 3 devices with one Apple ID. I use 4 devices to Message and FaceTime and all use the same Apple ID. You do need to add additional email addresses for the other devices.
Look at this very informative video for the instructions.
