Shared Storage to handle multiple seats for UHD-4k,8k and larger res-am I dreaming?

Is this possible?
In our shop we work in very large canvases in AE and PPro for Live Event Production. Lots of compositing in 4k up to and sometimes beyond 8k. AE for the heavy compositing with mediocre RAM previews. PPro for PreViz playback with realtime performance a must in HD and most times in 4k.
We have been working thru setting up appropriate workstations to handle the performance and are making progress. We have historically been on all Macs but branching out to PC for the better performance capabilities. And testing render farms for big renders.
Storage is the next project. We have 10-15 AE artists and 5-8 PPro editors that would benefit form a shared storage solution. Is this possible with current storage technoloigy? Or would it be more efficient to look into local storage like SAS...or?
Would appreciate any input.
Oh...and this Adobe Anywhere sounds very interesting in our workflow....any opinions? Again....not talking about hd or lower res....4k and above.
Thanks,

All that I know is from past discussions (see below) which indicate that you may not edit over a network connection (except Anywhere, which is a different product) so you will be limited to using any kind of shared storage only for "master" files that are copied to local drives for editing and then back when the edit is done
But, since I don't do that kind of editing anyway, all I have are some saved links... and there may be newer products that will work for shared editing, not just store files
Any version of Premiere doesn't work properly, if at all, over a network... so if it works at all, expect inconsistent behavior and problems

Multiple Renditions for iPhone 3/4 and iPhone 5

I need to create a single folio viewer iPhone app with multiple renditions for iPhone 3/4 and iPhone 5. What is the best way to go about this?

You can't create a single folio viewer for iPhone. You'll need to create a multi-folio viewer, and it must be iPad+iPhone combined. There's no option for iPhone-only.

Access iphoto 08 file on shared storage device from multiple machines

I recently installed ilife 08 on both an imac and macbook. Previously (iphoto 06), both devices accessed the iphoto library on a shared storage device without any problems. After the upgrade, my imac is able to view thelibrary but my macbook (the second machine to be upgraded) no longer has access. 'Sharing' is too slow over the wireless network and doesn't represent a reasonable option.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Any suggestions.

Actually, neither repairing permissions or changing them with Get Info worked for me. What did work for me was deleting the empty iPhoto Library in the user folder who couldn't access the shared library, and put an alias of the shared library in that user's Pictures folder. Everything then worked as it did prior to upgrading. Thanks.

Multiple batches for a production order and mapping with components

Hello Gurus,
Our business requires to create multiple batches for one production order + they want to trace which component in the production order has been issued to the main equipment.
For example, I am creating production order for 'A' equipment for 4 qty. Business wants to create 4 different batches for these equipment
Lets say now 4 batches are created A001, A002, A003 and A004.
Now lets assume 2 nos of 'B' component are required for 1no of 'A' component. So the requirement of B component is 8.
Lets say 8 batches are generated B001, B002 ......B008
Now lets say batch B001 and B002 are issued for A001 and packed together. How do we map this?
I understand we can do some enhancement for creating the multiple batches but I still dont know how to map them with each other.
Please help

Hi Ethan
There is a functionality called WIP batches, that allows you keep the batch traceability within an order.
With WIO batches you can track which batch of component was used to produce each batch of finished product.

Multiple position for one central person and one user

Dear Guru's,
I have a requirement to create multiple position for a existing User - which already has CP Central Person and S Position.
How to create this new position and assign the same CP to all the new positions ?
Thanks and regards,
Anil Rajpal

Hi
Yes you can definitely do this
Create the new position and assign the CP to this position in transaction PPOME. You may find the position first there in PPOME, and then drag-drop the CP over the position to make the assignment. System will ask the percentage of responsibility.......which you will ve to enter...

Multiple seats for event booking

Hi everyone,
My event bookings form is currently set up to only take 1 booking at a time. I found the information at the following url to extend the form for multiple bookings:
https://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1774
It said to add the following input field to the form:
<input class="cat_textbox" id=BookingAllocation name=BookingAllocation>
I just have two questions about this. Firstly, if I go into my form and add in a custom field, I get the following code:
            <tr>
                <td><label for="CAT_Custom_330508">How many seats would you like to book? <span class="req">*</span></label><br />
                <input type="text" maxlength="4000" name="CAT_Custom_330508" id="CAT_Custom_330508" class="cat_textbox" /></td>
            </tr>
Each of the "name", "id" and "for" attributes in the above code, all have a custom field number, ie. Custom_330508. From what I have read, apparently I'm not supposed to change these as this is what BC uses to insert the data into the correct field within the CRM. The "id" and "name" values from the input field that I got from the abovementoned url are:
id=BookingAllocation name=BookingAllocation
So the problem is how can I get it to work if I'm not supposed to change the custom field number from my BC form. Also, once a person has entered a number into that field how can I get that field to update the amount field lower down on the form, ie. to multiply the number by the event cost?
I'd really appreciate any help.

Hi,
In iChat 2 it was possible to have one name and Chat to it (Text only) in two locations (Chatting to your self as it were)
In iChat from iChat 3 you can set each Mac at one location to allow Multiple Logins with the same Screen Name.
This on the whole means that all computers will "Answer" an IM and show at least one side (incoming) of the Chat.
Now in addition to this you can also set iChat to Not accept Off Line IMs (either by answering the questioning IM from AIM or on the AIM web site - you can login with your @mac.com name)
as well as that iChat can be set in the General Preferences to "When iChat is Quit, Set My Status to Off Line"
this effects not only Off Line IMS but also the fact iChat will start Up if the computer is On and someone IMs you.
My experience is that it does not seem to be consistent and that the above settings seem to have something to do with it.
There does not seem to be a limit to the number of Multiple Logins that you can have. (seats as you put it)
Jabber accounts do not allow Multiple logins so the issue does not arise as you cannot essentially login on multiple computers.
Summary.
The best thing I can suggest is tweaking the General settings and see if things change

Select multiple channels for one task - control and shift keys don't work

Hi,
Following advice from several other posts, I'm trying to select multiple physical channels from the dropdown list so that I can then use the "unflatten channel string" function later on. It looks like if I hold down either shift or cntrl I should be able to select multiple channels from the list, however, this doesn't work for me. I tried going into the "key navigations" property for the task channel control but it doesn't have any associations listed. Has anyone else come across this and found a fix? I have previously got around this by stating multiple channels with a colon (eg. ai1:3) but this doesn't work for the unflatten function.
Thanks,
Claire.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Thanks for your reply Dennis, I see what you mean, unfortunately that doesn't solve my problem so I'm missing something else. I've attached my VIs. I expected that the output from the unflattenstring block would be an array of either the channel references or the names I had given them, and that therefore the "array size" in the 4th pane would be "9" (equal to the number of channels). Instead the output is a an "unnamed task#(some number)" when I look at it with a probe. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding how the task naming works?
THanks,
Claire.

Issue with Multiple LTS for a fact table and filters

Hello,
I am facing an issue with obiee 10g.
In my model, I have a huge FACT table F1 (partitioned and indexed). The average response time for the queries, which targeted it, was ~30-60 seconds, which was not really convincing our end user.
So, we decided to create a materialized view, which removes some dimensions that are not used by default, but might be used if the end user adds some filters. I added the Materialized view in the Physical Layer and in the corresponding Logical Table Source.
I then tried to see if it works, but I was a bit surprised by the result. Indeed,
-> If the report does not reference a truncated dimension, it targets the materialized view. -> Perfect
-> If the report does reference a truncated dimension in the columns, it targets the Fact Table. -> Perfect
-> If the report does reference a truncated dimension in the Filters, it targets the materialized view. For this reason, the filter is never resolved and no join on the dimension table is applied, whereas it exists in logical SQL generated. -> Ko.
A suggestion could be to add the filters into the columns, but I am not satisfied by this response because it will never use the materialized view in that case.
An other suggestion could be to use query rewrite, but I 'd like to have the full control on the generation of the queries.
Does someone know if the filters are not evaluated to determine which LTS to use? How can I force this evaluation?
Regards,

Hi,
If I understand your description correctly, then your materialized view skips some dimensions (infrequent ones). However, when you reference these skipped dimensions in filters, the queries are hitting the materialized view and failing as these values do not exist. In this case, you could resolve it as follows
1. Create dimensional hierarchies for all dimensions.
2. In the fact table's logical sources set the content tabs properly. (Yes, I think this is it).
When you skipped some dimensions, the grain of the new fact source (the materialized view in this case) is changed. For example:
Say a fact is available with the keys for Product, Customer, Promotion dimensions. The grain for this is Product * Customer * Promotion
Say another fact is available with the keys for Product, Customer. The grain for this is Product * Customer (In fact, I would say it is Product * Customer * Promotion Total).
So in the second case, the grain of the table is changed. So setting appropriate content levels for these sources would automatically switch the sources.
So, I request you to try these settings and let me know if it works.
Thank you,
Dhar

Dependency between projects for presentations, BPM objects and external res

Hi,
I am trying to create a common project for all our exceptions, presentations and external resources...
I have updated the properties of the project1 for dependeny on project2(exceptions project)
but I am not able to see the user exception BPM Objects in the depended project to use...
Project 1 is having all code that needs to call the BPM objects, presentations and external resources on the Project 2
but these objects and presentations etc., are not visible to the project1.
please advice if I need to do anything in relation to configs apart from making the Project 1 properties to dependency --> check box ticked and selecting the Project 2.
thanks
Satya

When you use the project dependency feature, you do not see the BPM Objects in the Catalog. You see them (shown in blue) when you add variables in the process that refer to BPM Objects from the master project. You see them when you create a new attribute in your BPM object that is an BPM Object in the master project. You see them when you use them in logic inside your methods.

Disk replication for Shared Storage in Weblogic server

Hi,
Why we need a disk replication in web-logic server for shared storage systems? What is the advantage of it and how this disk replication can be achieved in web-logic for the shared storage which contains the common configurations and software's which will be used by a pool of client machines? Please clarify.
Thanks.

Hi,
I am not the middleware expert. However ACFS (Oracle Cloud File System) is a clustering filesystem, which also has the functionality for replication:

Maybe you also finde information on what you need on the MAA website: www.oracle.com/goto/maa

How To Manage Premiere Cache Files On A Central Storage Server with Multiple editors

Look for the proper recommended setup in a shared storage environment with multiple editors. Where do cache files reside on each editor locally or on the shared storage.
This is in a Windows 7 Environment using EMC2 Isilon for our shared storage. We are running Premier Pro CC 2014 8.1 Caravan Build 8.2.0(65)
Thanks

MVC �Best Practice� (handling multiple views per action/event)

Looking for the best approach for handling multiple views for one action/event class? Background: I have a small application using a basic MVC model, one controller servlet, multiple event classes, and multiple JSP views. For performance reasons, the controller Servlet is loaded once, and each event class is an instance within it. Each event has an �eventProcess()� and an �eventForward()� method called by the controller, standard stuff.
However, because event classes should not use instance variables, how should I communicate which view to forward to should based upon eventProcess() logic (e.g. if error, error.jsp, if success, success.sjp)? Currently, there is only one view mapped per event, and I'm having to put error handling logic in the JSP, which goes against the JSP being for just view only.
My though was 1) A session object/variable that the eventProcess() sets, and the eventForward() reads, or 2) Have eventProcess() return a mapping key and have the conroller lookup a view page based upon that key, as opposed to 1-1 event/view mapping.
Would like your thoughts!
Thanks
bRi

Your solution seems ok to me, but maybe the Struts framework from Apache
that implements MVC for JSP is a better solution for you:
http://jakarta.apache.org/struts/index.html
You should take a look at it. It has in addition some useful taglibs that makes life much easier.
We have successfully used it in a project with about 50 pages.

Multiple values for single field

hi
In order to upload Purchase order details, how you handle multiple values for a single field?
Eg: Item field may contain no. of values for a record

Hi,
It is generally taken care using BDC's by Table Control, and if you are using BAPI's then there are tables for ITEMS.

Running probes on shared storage?

Hi. I'm trying to avoid the hassle of having to manually shut down the probes every time I need to do maintenance (mode) on my hosts. As long as the probes are deployed on local datastores this is mandatory.
How about instead putting the probes on shared storage? Would this allow for putting the hosts in Maintenance Mode?
Would the AppSpeed server somehow make sure they return to their respective hosts when the hosts return from Maintenance Mode? If not, could I create DRS host-VM-affinity rules to keep each probe on it's host?
Thanks in advance!

Hmm, apparently the probes are automatically shut down when the host is put in Maintenance Mode. I thought they had to be shut down manually. How is this done?
Well, you learn something new every day.

Search multiple folders for files with same name and create single file

I have a project where I need to search multiple folders for a file name and when found append data from each file to a single input file.
Example
root folder to start search
\\servera\sales
\\servera\it\salesa\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesb\cmmstr.txt
\\servera\it\salesc\cmmstr.txt
I need to create a a single cmmstr.txt on the root folder. I would like it to be able to run this with parms to pass in folders to search and file names to search and single file name to create. I'm going to have a least 10 differnt files to
search for and create output file for. The folders to search
will somewhat be static.
Thanks.

I tested this out on my own seat and I think it should work for you. I wrote it as a function, all you have to do is pass the root folders you want to search and the file your looking for. The function will then search that directory and all sub directories
for that file name. you will also have to provide it a file to append to, if the file dosen't exists the function will create it. If you run into an issues let me know and the links Mike
Laughlin posted are a great resource.
Function Search-Files{
Param([String[]]$Locations, $SearchFor, $AppendTo)
Begin
If(-Not (Test-Path $AppendTo)){New-Item $AppendTo -ItemType File -Force}
Process
ForEach($Location in $Locations)
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Path $Location -Filter $SearchFor -Recurse
ForEach($File in $Files)
Get-Content -Path $FIles.FullName | Out-File $AppendTo -Append
End{}
Search-Files -Locations "\\Server1\c$\Temp", "\\Server1\c$\Test1" -SearchFor "Install.cmd" -AppendTo "C:\Temp\Search.log"
