All files are regenerated if changed.
That goes for the .java and the .class files that are created. The jsp server checks to see if the current version is the latest. If it is, nothing gets changed or recompiled. If things are different, programs are recompiled.
Youll notice that if you have a new jsp it always takes longer the first time. Or even when you change a jsp, the first time takes the longest for the page to come up in a browser. This is because of recompiling.
Does this make any sense?

Unix command needed to search alert log

Hi. Im trying to search the alert log file to see if there is any thing related to the checkpointing process.
Specifically Im looking for anything that includes "Checkpoint not complete".
If anyone knows the command for searching the file in UNIX for this then please post here!
Many thanks
DA

Hi Dan,
"Checkpoint not complete".In UNIX try: http://www.dba-oracle.com/op_unix_16_cat_grep_commands.htm
grep "checkpoint not complete" /u01/app/..../alertSID.log
In Windows:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_windows_alert_log_script.htm
I e-mail myself important alert log messages, using this technique:
http://www.remote-dba.cc/oracle_tips_table_alerts.htm
Also, you can read the alert log from SQL, if you want:

Hope this helps. . .

Unix Command Needed

I would like to format a SATA drive that is connected with a USB adapter, but I am unsure how to do it without overwriting my internal drive.
diskutil resizeVolume disk0s2 200G "JHFS+" 4-Linux 30G "MS-DOS FAT32" 4-Windows 0b
The command above was copied from another forum. I couldn't remember if it has a typo that needs to be fixed (0b to 0G?).
I assume that disk0s2 needs to be changed, but I cannot figure out what my external drive would be named. Please advise.

diskutil resizeVolume disk1s3 200G "JHFS+" 4-Linux 30G "MS-DOS FAT32" 4-Windows 0b
Thanks, that worked perfectly!
This worked, but I now see that UNIX was not needed to make it happen. I'm stumped why so many forums regarding triple booting a Mac don't use Disk Utility instead of UNIX. Not to mention, I found one that had bad syntax, and I had to keep searching to find one that worked.
The Linux partition was formatted in Mac OS Extended Journaled. Linux must be able to see the partition when installing, and then it probably reformats to a non-Apple scheme before installation begins. Since it cannot be mounted by OS X when booting into X, it may be defaulting to ext3 format. In Disk Utility, it shows up as disk0s3, and it is grayed out.

Need a unix command

Hi all,
I just can't figure this out... I need a unix command that will backup any file matching a specific file extension AND the directory structure those files are in into a separate directory or volume. In other words, let's say that I have the files and directory structure below. I want to backup all of the txt files as separate files (not a tar archive) without writing the img files, without overwriting one txt file with another, and preserving the directory structure.
foo/bar/a.txt
foo/bar/b.txt
foo/bar/a.img
foo/bar/b.img
foo/me/a.txt
foo/me/b.txt
foo/me/a.img
foo/me/b.img
foo/me/you/a.txt
foo/me/you/b.txt
foo/me/you/a.img
foo/me/you/b.img
I've read the man pages for ditto and rsync... they're geared toward backing up every file in a directory, and so they're not very clear about how to backup one single file type/extension.
Everytime I try different varients of the rsync command, I either get errors "rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-24.1/rsync/main.c(717)", or file not found, or it overwrites the 'a.txt' with a different 'a.txt' without preserving the directory structure.
Can someone give me the exact syntax for backing up the .txt files in the example above to an external disk (e.g. /Volume/backup)???
Thanks!

OK... my example was oversimplified. There are tons of different types of files in my directories (*.img, *.gif, *.etc), and I only want to cp one type (e.g., .txt).
So, I started with the --include flag using the following command:
rsync -nav --include *.txt foo/ /Volumes/baz/
the result listed every file in foo (e.g., *.txt, *.img)
I thought that perhaps the \*.txt should be *.txt
rsync -nav --include *.txt foo/ /Volumes/baz/
the result listed every file in foo (e.g., *.txt, *.img)
rsync -nav --include "*.txt" foo/ /Volumes/baz/
again, the result listed every file in foo (e.g., *.txt, *.img)
Clearly, the --include flag wasn't working as I expected it to work. So, I decided to try the --exclude flag:
rsync -nav --exclude "*.img" foo/ /Volumes/baz/
Now, the results listed every file in foo except the *.img files.
I needed to exclude other files as well, so I tried:
rsync -nav --exclude "*.img *.etc" foo/ /Volumes/baz/
Now, the results listed every file in foo INCLUDING the *.img files. So, adding additional file types within quotes broke the original command.
rsync -nav --exclude *.img *.etc foo/ /Volumes/baz/
Now, I get the error "rsync: link_stat "/Volumes/HD/foo/*.etc" failed: No such file or directory (2)"; and all .etc files are still included
Now I tried:
rsync -nav --exclude *.img --exclude *.etc foo/ /Volumes/baz/
Now, this excluded both *.img and *.etc files. I have about 20 file types other than *.txt ... there has to be some other way!!!

Unix command sorely needed

Hi
Our tmp file was rammed up to 98% early this morning and I was called to deal with it.
I needed to see the largest files then decide if we could eliminate them.
I really need a Unix command that will list the largest files first (or last) from a given directory.
Does this command exist? I already tried googling to meagre avail.
Thanks.

Hi Dan,
I really need a Unix command that will list the largest files first (or last) from a given directory.Here is how I do it, using the "find" command:
http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_unix_script_find_files_older_date.htm
Finding large files on Linux
The following command is very useful in cases where a Linux file system has become full. As we may know, Oracle will hang whenever Oracle must expand a tablespace and Oracle cannot extend the UNIX filesystem.
When a UNIX file become unexpectedly full, it may be because Oracle has written a huge core or trace file into the UNIX filesystem.
The script below will display all files that are greaten then one megabyte in size. Note that the size parameter is specified in K-bytes.
root> find . -size +1024 –print
./prodsid_ora_22951.trc
Of course, you can easily append the xargs of –exec command to automatically remove the large file:
root> find . -size +1024 –print|xargs –i rm \;
This find command will do a "stats" on all files in a directory structure, showing the total size of all files in the directory. You can also incorporate the "df -k" command"
find ${START_DIR} -mtime -${DAYS} |xargs stat -c "%s"|awk '{sum += $1}END{print sum}'
Hope this helps . . .

What is the absolute client permission needed to receive Unix commands?

The ARD error "This task is not authorized on (computerName)" is forcing me to allow almost all the privileges in the Remote Management section of client computer's Sharing System Preferences. I've already had to add:
"open and quit applications"
"change settings"
"delete and replace items"
"restart and shutdown" (see this Apple document's suggestion for Unix commands)
"copy items"
It makes no sense to my why 'Generate reports' must also be added, but clicking it off makes the error return. I'm just triggering a Unix command that goes something like "echo 1" and runs as root on the one test computer (and potentially dozens, so it wouldn't be pretty changing settings in that many) If it helps, the ARD host is 10.6.7 with ARD 3.4 (installed via the App Store a couple weeks ago) and the clients are 10.4.11 and 10.5.8.
I'm preparing documentation for ARD and some clients installing our software will not warm to the idea of widening up the permissions footprint. Potentially dozens of computers will need to be retweaked, even if they wouldn't have to leave their seat.
We also will need to deploy a pkg installer, so some of those may need to remain checked, but ...
What is the absolute client permission needed to receive Unix commands?
Thanks

Have you tried sending it as User: Root
To my knowledge with that setting you do not need any client permissions as a unix command used as Root overides any permission set. If this is something you need to do often I do know for a fact you can make the report task up use send as Root and tell it to save as template. After this you will be able use the templte to make things a bet quicker. I believe in oder to do this you must enable root user open Directory Utility in order to do this. Keep in mind root has full permissions and any command you enter with unix will be executed as such. This is a word around in the way that the normal client users do not need to have permissions enabled, also having root available at times is handy in stick situations.

3 I also created a shell script , but i get another message when i try to run sh ...
Please help to find out a way to make it work ..
Kunal

Hi kunal,
1. probably ur basis team might be able to help u.
2. even if we have authorisations thru sap
   to run external os command,
   the actual OS user on application server
   must have the right for it
   and access/write/read/modify
   for the files (provided thru the command)
   in question.
3. Due to this , the systems gives the message
   of SECURITY RISK.

UNIX command and SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE

HI all,
Let me explain my requirement:
I need to move all files from source dir to target.
For that i need to read source dir and target dir from selection screen.
I wrote UNIX command as follows:
"mv -f /common/home/edw/parsekb/b2/* /common/home/edw/parsekb/b1"
where i m specifying the src and target dir.
so i need to pass the parmeters as srcdir and targetdir?
how should i do it?
i knw i need to create a command in SM69,then what will be the parameters in that case?
and how to call that from ABAP ?
if anybody give me explaination w.r.t. coding steps then that will be gr8.
but pls specify SM69 steps and ABAP both
Thanx in advance

Hi!
1. Create your shell script your_shell_script.sh:
src=$1
dst=$2
mv -f $src $dst
2. Create your command Z_YOUR_COMMAND using SM69:
- Operating system command: /bin/sh (the path to your shell interpretator)
- Parameters for operating system command:
/home/sap/bin/your_shell_script.sh (the path to your shell script)
- Set "Additional parameters allowed" checkbox
3. Call your command from ABAP:
data:
param type sxpgcolist-parameters.
status type extcmdexex-status,
exitcode type extcmdexex-exitcode,
it_log type table of btcxpm.
p_src = '/common/home/edw/parsekb/b2/*'.
p_dst = '/common/home/edw/parsekb/b1'.
concatenate p_src p_dst into param separated by space.

ARD-Unix Command for Energy Saver Settings

I need to take out the schedule for turning on and off 100 + iMacs. The setup was done with managed preferences in OSX server but cannot be taken off now. Is there a way to turn this off using a unix command with ARD? I've been doing one by one with ARD!

Use ARD to send the Unix command systemsetup -help
This will return a bunch of different commands for you to look at that are related to power and energy saving settings. Make sure you send the command as the root user
You can always read the man files for the pmset command using your Terminal app. Also check out this page too:

SFTP using Unix command

Hi all,
I am trying to upload a file from SAP to a folder in another server.
Here they want us to use SFTP port 22 which is not supported by SAP by default i guess.
Could any one give me clear procedure and commands to be used in program in order to upload the in file in the server.
If you could give the methods and FMs and unix commands used it would be great.
I went through lot of threads but very few are talking about SFTP and i am not the clear about how to go with it.
Few say that we need to create and external command in SM59.
IF it is so can you tell what exactly are the parameter to be given for ex i want to put a file so what would be the parameters and how do we use this command in my program
Any sample code which puts the file another server???
Thanx

Check if your able to do sftp at command line from the server where BPEL is running.

Method to restart Oracle Apps 11i OPP via Unix command line

Hi All,
Does any one knows if there any way to restart Oracle Apps 11i Output Post Processor (OPP) via the UNIX command line?
Thanks

Oracle-User wrote:
Do you recommend that I set the profile option Concurrent: OPP Response Timeout to a higher value instead of increasing OPP Processes from 1 to 2? Yes.
I'm thinking that increasing OPP Response Timeout to a higher value will not solve our issue as it seems that once we get our first OPP Timeout error, all of the requests that need the OPP fail. We've had this occur on a Saturday, which is a day where the volume of jobs that need the OPP is very low. The error you are getting is related to the timeout and it has nothing to do with the number of OPP processes you are running on. Please set this profile option and check then (after you bounce the OPP).
Thanks,

Executing Unix Commands

Hi
I realise there is a Runtime class to help execute Unix commands from within Java code, but how would this work if the command required a password.
For example, were I to try to execute:
ssh -Y myserver.domain.com -u Myself -p
How would this work with supplying the password (which is prompted for after the command is sent to the shell)?
Thanks
Dave

from the ssh man page under "environment variables":     SSH_ASKPASS
              If ssh needs a passphrase, it will read the passphrase from the
              current terminal if it was run from a terminal. If ssh does not
              have a terminal associated with it but DISPLAY and SSH_ASKPASS
              are set, it will execute the program specified by SSH_ASKPASS
              and open an X11 window to read the passphrase. This is particu-
              larly useful when calling ssh from a .xsession or related
              script. (Note that on some machines it may be necessary to
              redirect the input from /dev/null to make this work.)
