Smt data from diagnostics

Hello,
Can anyone interpret the following info from the diagnostics run on my 20G ipod? The 'smt data' returned with the following:
retracts 84
reallocs 227
pending 541
This was immediately after I reformatted the ipod. The HDD R/W passes and all other tests pass except the HDD scan is still running after an hour and 45 minutes.
Is this thing dead? I assume the smt data refers to bad sectors on my hard drive.
Why would so many folks with 4th generation ipods be having the same problem around the same time?
thanks for any help interpreting the smt data.

Hi Stacey,
Although I can't help with the SMT data, I CAN recommend an alternative to iTunes. If you've ever used Winamp, you'll know how useful a media player it is. I find the media library to be much better than iTunes. And, since it's basically open-source (albeit a Premium version exists), there are loads of free plug-ins available. And one of those is an iPod plug-in.
I stopped using Winamp a while ago as it was playing havoc with my dodgy graphics card. However, in that time, I found mlipod to be an invaluable tool in using my iPod. It's available from:
www.mlipod.com
You'll need Winamp 5 or above to use it, but it's fully-featured and copying music to (and from!) the iPod is quick and easy. Also, this feature is now completely integrated into Winamp 5.2 and above.
Also, you might need the M4P plug-in for Winamp if you use iTunes downloaded music - it's basic, but allows playback of protected files. Winamp can play M4A (unprotected files of the same family) files by default, but not M4P. I'm sorry, but I can't find the website. The link from Will Fisher's page doesn't work, and the iPod page on Wikipedia from which I found it has been restyled and the link removed. I do have the original installation file, so if you would like to try this method, please e-mail me:

Hope this helps,

  • Problem with recovering data from Bit Locker enabled hard disk with bad sectors

    Hi,
    I have Lenovo T430 laptop with Windows 7 and Bit Locker enabled hard disk. While working I encountered blue screen error multiple times. After some time, the laptop stopped to boot by itself and started showing error 'A disk read write error has occurred.
    Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart' message. I tried to connect the hard disk to a different PC as a secondary drive and tried to check the disk to recover the data. The 500 GB disk is showing as unallocated space and I am not sure how to recover the
    data from the hard disk. Appreciate your help to recover the data from corrupted hard disk.
    I used the Lenovo Diagnostics tools available in BIOS and it showed 48 bad sector errors on the hard disk. I also used Windows 7 CD and tried auto repair but it looks like it didn't do anything.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi  SenneVL,
    Since there are 48 bad sectors on your hard disk, this means the system can not boot any more, the data might not be restored in a normal way, you'd better turn to data restore company for help.

  • TcpListener not working on Azure: Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

    Hi Everybody,
    i'm playing a little bit with Windows Azure and I'm blocked with a really simple issue (or maybe not).
    I've created a Cloud Service containing one simple Worker Role. I've configured an EndPoint in the WorkerRole configuration, which allows Input connections via tcp on port 10100.
    Here the ServiceDefinition.csdef file content:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
    <ServiceDefinition name="EmacCloudService" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/ServiceHosting/2008/10/ServiceDefinition" schemaVersion="2014-01.2.3">
    <WorkerRole name="TcpListenerWorkerRole" vmsize="Small">
    <Imports>
    <Import moduleName="Diagnostics" />
    <Import moduleName="RemoteAccess" />
    <Import moduleName="RemoteForwarder" />
    </Imports>
    <Endpoints>
    <InputEndpoint name="Endpoint1" protocol="tcp" port="10100" />
    </Endpoints>
    </WorkerRole>
    </ServiceDefinition>
    This WorkerRole is just creating a TcpListener object listening to the configured port (using the RoleEnvironment instance) and waits for an incoming connection. It receives a message and returns a hardcoded message (see code snippet below).
    namespace TcpListenerWorkerRole
    using System;

    LoggingProvider.Logger.Info(string.Format("TcpListener started at '{0}:{1}'", RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.InstanceEndpoints["Endpoint1"].IPEndpoint.Address, RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.InstanceEndpoints["Endpoint1"].IPEndpoint.Port));

    As you can see, nothing special is being done. I've used the RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.InstanceEndpoints to retrieve the current IPEndpoint.
    Running the Cloud Service in the Windows Azure Compute Emulator everything works fine, but when I deploy it in Azure, then I receive the following Exception:

    I've already tried to configure an internal port in the ServiceDefinition.csdef file, but I get the same exception there.
    As you can see, the client can connect to the service (the log shows the message: Client connected with the address) but when it tries to read the bytes from the stream, it throws the exception.
    For me it seems like Azure is preventing the retrieval of the message. I've tried to disable the Firewall in the VM in Azure and the same continues happening.
    I'm using Windows Azure SDK 2.3
    Any help will be very very welcome!
    Thanks in advance!

    hi Javier,
    I changed your code like this:
    private AutoResetEvent connectionWaitHandle = new AutoResetEvent(false);
    public override void Run()
    TcpListener listener = null;
    try
    listener = new TcpListener(
    RoleEnvironment.CurrentRoleInstance.InstanceEndpoints["Endpoint"].IPEndpoint);
    listener.ExclusiveAddressUse = false;
    listener.Start();
    catch (SocketException se)
    return;
    while (true)
    IAsyncResult result = listener.BeginAcceptTcpClient(HandleAsyncConnection, listener);
    connectionWaitHandle.WaitOne();
    The HandleAsync method is your "While (true)" code:
    private void HandleAsyncConnection(IAsyncResult result)
    TcpListener listener = (TcpListener)result.AsyncState;
    TcpClient client = listener.EndAcceptTcpClient(result);
    connectionWaitHandle.Set();
    NetworkStream netStream = client.GetStream();
    StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(netStream);
    StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(netStream);
    writer.AutoFlush = true;
    string input = string.Empty;
    try
    char[] receivedChars = new char[client.ReceiveBufferSize];
    // LoggingProvider.Logger.Info("Buffer size: " + client.ReceiveBufferSize);
    int readedChars = reader.Read(receivedChars, 0, client.ReceiveBufferSize);
    char[] validChars = new char[readedChars];
    Array.ConstrainedCopy(receivedChars, 0, validChars, 0, readedChars);
    input = new string(validChars);
    // LoggingProvider.Logger.Info("This is what the host sent to you: " + input + ". Readed chars=" + readedChars);
    try
    string orderResultFormat = Encoding.ASCII.GetString(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("\xB")) + @"MSH|^~\&|Instrument|Laboratory|LIS|LIS Facility|20120427123212+0100||ORL^O34^ORL_O34| 11|P|2.5.1||||||UNICODE UTF-8|||LAB-28^IHE" + Environment.NewLine + "MSA|AA|10" + Environment.NewLine + @"PID|||patientId||""""||19700101|M" + Environment.NewLine + "SPM|1|sampleId&ROCHE||ORH^^HL70487|||||||P^^HL70369" + Environment.NewLine + "SAC|||sampleId" + Environment.NewLine + "ORC|OK|orderId|||SC||||20120427123212" + Encoding.ASCII.GetString(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("\x1c\x0d"));

    Thanks - I had a 1TB hdd in my macbook for about 12 months but it started playing up a few days ago (I got the question mark folder on bootup) so I bought another 1TB hdd (same model) and started from scratch.
    My macbook is an early 2010... now I'm wondering if Yosemite is a bit too much for it?
    The ext hdd is my timemachine backup, so yes I have used it often and it has my TM backups - and the usb is a new usb which Ive used a few times.
    The issue seems to be when Im transferring files from an ext drive to my mac. I can use it fine and browse (worked find for 45 mins) then I tried to bring my data across.. and it copied a few gig over before total freeze.
    This has happened about a dozen times.
    I keep running disk utility and checking the disk. I also just ran the apple diagnostics tool that came in the apps cd - the hardware apears to be fine.
    I have a 250 gb partition for the OS and the rest is my second partition for data.
    I'm now wondering if I should reformat the first partition, install leopard from the CD, then upgrade to mavericks and leave it at that.
    Any thoughts would be awesome. Thank you for reading and replying!

  • EBS-R12 Generate XML (with data) from Embedded Data Definition

    Hi
    I'm new to running XMLP/BIP in EBS.
    I have found the extensive set of data definitions and templates in EBS and they work great out of the box.
    I, however, need to make template modifications.
    To this end, a correctly structured XML data template - containing all the data fields - is needed for loading into the template-builder in Word.
    If for example I take the embedded R12 data definition - XLAJELINESRPT.xml - for Posted Payable Invoices, and load it into the template builder, it provides the structure of the data template and not the structure of the output XML data.
    I have tried several ways to run the Data definition through XMLP using the concurrent manager attempting to intercept the generated XML (with data) but it either completes the process and uses the linked output template - producing the PDF - or other output - or if I remove the (output template altogether) it fails with an error.
    Maybe I'm missing an obvious step, but there has to be a way of taking the very comprehensive Data Definitions embedded in R12 EBS and using them in custom report templates.
    If I've totally missed the point, please give me the steps to follow.
    Many thaks in anticipation.
    Mike MacMurray

    HI Mike,
    You cannot load your Data Template into the MS Word Template Builder plugin, as it cannot be run to generate XML this way.
    You have two options to get the data from an XML Publisher Report run as a concurrent program in EBS.
    1) Using the XML Publisher Administrator responsibility, set an end date for both the Data Defintion and Template Definitions associated with the XLAJELINESRPT report.
    2) Leave the concurrent program, Data Defintions and Template Definitions exactly as they are and run the report. Once the report has completed, select the Concurrent Request, click "Diagnostics" then click "View XML". This will open the XML in a new browser window. You can then right click, View Source and then save this document locally.
    You can then load this XML into the MS Word Template Builder and start building your template.
    I hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Cj

  • How to fetch data from SolMan and move it into SAP BI?

    Hi all,
         I have the portal activity report data residing in the SolMan ( achieved by configuring portal and SolMan).  I need to extract this data from Solution Manager into SAP BI, such that i can report on the data in SAP BI using the BEx tools. How will i proceed with it ? Your response is higly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Divya.

    Hello Divya,
    You must set up E2E Diagnostics for the managed system (portal system).
    You can accomplish this by running transaction solman_setup  in the Sollution Manager and ensure that Initial and Basic Configurations are performed. Afterwards, you must follow the Managed System Configuration (also in solman_setup) for the managed system.
    Afterwards you must activate some specific Portal Activity Data Collectors following the note 1309740.
    Best regards,

  • Need to extract data from a bricked hard drive - Failure ID ucx77t-69j7ms-mfpx1f-60vp03

    Hi My laptop (HP Pavilion Sleekbook 14, purchased in October 2012)  had gone slow recently, and finally its hard drive developed problems. At one point, it was so slow that it took a few minutes to sign off my user, so I shut it down manually while it was logging off. That was when it got really bad. Specifically, I reached the "Repairing disk errors. This may take over an hour to complete" screen. I left it to run for almost a full day and it didn't work. So, I rebooted the laptop and checked its diagnostics boot menu. It ran diagnostics on the hard drive, and on the whole laptop. There were no hardware problems or any codes for any individual components, except the hard drive. Specifically, it gave me the  Failure ID "ucx77t-69j7ms-mfpx1f-60vp03". I tried looking that up but I couldn't find anything. I wonder what that failure ID is for. Fortunately, I have a recovery drive, and most of the information on the laptop is backed up, but I need to extract some recently created data from my hard drive before I lose it by running recovery manager. I tried to back up some files, but the recovery drive could not reach any files to back up. I've also tried taking out the drive and putting it in an external hard drive enclosure then connecting it to another laptop, but it's telling me that the drive is only 25 GB when it's a 500 GB drive, and I still can't reach any files from C: inside. Can you help me figure out how to back up those files? They're only about 10-15 GB altogether, and I can easily fit them on another laptop.

    The failure id message means the hard drive has failed and will have to be replaced. The slowness and other problems were early warning signs of a failing hdd.If the drive can not be read using an external enclosure-not much hope. You might try one of the free tools to recover files-especially #2 which claims ability to recover lost partitions.Maybe it can see your C partition. http://pcsupport.about.com/od/filerecovery/tp/free-file-recovery-programs.htm

  • Retrieve data from old broken harddrive

    Hi, I want to ask.
    Last friday, my harddrive has broken for unknown reason. I knew it has broken from information I got in PC Hardware Diagnostics UEFI. The harddrive failed on Extensive Test and Long DST test (Error code : Q8FETV-77C7GA-MPFX0J-61DJ03). I plan to buy a new harddrive.
    My question is, can I retrieve my data from the broken harddrive ? I didn't have backups for the data. If it is still possible, what are the steps ? Can I do it by myself or should I get some help from computer service shop to help me ?
    Thank you.

  • To extract portal activity data from the portal into Solution manager.

    HI all,
          I need to extract the portal activity data from the portal into Solution  Manager BI and then later on into the SAP BW in order to generate BEx reports on the portal activity data. I need to know about the configuartions that are needed to be done on the portal side and the solution manager side so as to get the data into SolMan from portal.  Waiting for a response.
    Thanks and regards,
    Divya.

    Hi
    In solution manager you can do the  analysis of the ADC data files (Portal activity reporting) as as part of the End-to-End Diagnostics (Portal Activity Reporting tab in the End-to-End Workload Analysis).
    Will you see the Portal Activity Reporting tab under End-to-End Workload Analysis?
    by default PAR in SAP Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1 is deactivated ,since we requires
    some manual configuration of the Activity Data Collector.
    please follow the attached config guide in the SAP note for configuration.

  • Refreshing the Data from a embed view in a view container

    Hi everybody
    I would like to know how can I do to refresh all data from a View with a view container the problem is:
    that I have a window that has a view at the same time this has a view container.  The Main view brings the data of editable elements when I select one element of the main view the view container brings a list for that element (dependencies) but only the first time a choose an element loads the correct data, when I choose another one it brings the same old data and doesn't make the call for the wdDoInit() method.
    The question is:
    How do I force the view to refresh all the data or call again the wdDoInit() method?
    Thank you for your help

    Aida,
    Lets say you have two components C1 and C2 and you want method from C1 to be available in C2 then follow these steps:-
    1) Goto the Interface Controller of C1 and create a method there lets say doSomething
    2) Then goto C2. There you can see Used Web Dynpro Components --> Right click Add Used Component --> Give some name say C1Comp --> Click browse and select C1 --> Click Finish.
    3) Next goto Component Controller of C2 --> Properties --> Click Add and check if C1 is added. If not then select the checkbox and select OK.
    4) Now goto Implementation tab of C2 and lets say wdDoInit you can write following code:-
    wdThis.wdGetC1CompInterface().doSomething();

  • Issue when uploading Sales data from DSO to Cube.

    Dear All,
    I have an issue when I am uploading Sales data from DSO to Cube.  I am using BI 7.0 and I have uploaded all sales document level data to my DSO.  Then I use a transformation rule to calculate the Sales Value when I am doing DTP to cube.  Cube has customer wise aggregation data.
    In DSO I have NetPrice(KF) and Delivered_QTY(KF).  I do a simple multiplication routine in the transformation from DSO to Cube.
    RESULT =   SOURCE_FIELDS-NET_PRICE * SOURCE_FIELDS-DLV_QTY .
    At the moment I use Active Table(With out Archive) on the DSO to get the data since this is my first load.
    Issue is that the figure (Sales Value) in the cube is incorrect. I am getting a very large values which is impossible.
    Can someone please help me.
    Shanka

    Hi,
    are you sure that cube has customer wise aggregated data..since it will always aggregate the values of the key figures for the same set of characters...
    did you checked the values for the key figures as well and if even they are inflated or is the problem with this key figure only.
    During the data load the records may aggregates first for the same values of characters and then multiplication will be happening....if that is the case then you may have to multiply the values before storing it in the data package and then let it aggregate....can be achived through start routine...
    but first verify if other key figures are also having the same issue.
    Thanks

  • How to create a report to bring all data from two different Info providers

    Hi All,
    I have a peculier problem while creating a report. I have two custom info providers one DSO and another Cube. There are only two common fields between these two Info providers . I need to create a report such that the report displays all the values from DSO but user can have the selection option on one of the fields in the Cube.
    Here is an example
    DSO Contents:
    DocNum-     DocItem-     DocText-     Amount-      Quantity
    10000----     10----            ABC----          100----           10
    10001----     20----     DSN----     200----     10
    10005----     20----     DSN----     200----     10
    Z1003----     10----     CAN----     500----     1
    Cube Contents
    DocNum-     DocItem-     Date-----          InvoiceAmt
    10000----     10----     1/10/2009----         50
    10001----     20----      2/20/2009----        100
    10005----     20----      2/25/2009----        100
    The report needs to be displayed as shown below when the user selects value for date from 1/10/2009 to 2/20/2009
    DocNum-     DocItem-     DocText-     Amount-      Quantity
    10000----     10----     ABC----     100----     10
    10001----     20----     DSN----     200----     10
    I hope this was clear for you to understand. I would really appricate if any one can answers about how to resolve this problem. I cannot add the date filed to DSO and I also have Doc Num and Item as the user selection fields in the report.
    Thank you all in advance and i would really appreciate for your suggestions.

    Hi chinna,
    Two possible options, I can think of now, but both of them may be a compromise with performance.
    1. create an infoset and then a query on top of it, provided we have a one to one relation in both the targets. That is, the combination of doc and item number is not duplicate in either cube or ODS.
    2. Create a master data object of doc and item number and have date as an attribute. Load that from cube data and make date as navigational attr.
    Use this navgntal attr for selection in your report.
    Let us know, if you require any further info.

  • Upload data from Excel to BI

    Hi 2 all,
    Can anyone please send me the complete steps for uploading of data from excel to BI??
    Also tell me that when we use DSO or when we use infocube? and if we design query in query designer then we use info cube fields or DSO fields??
    Please respond.

    Hi,
    there is no separate Tcode for 3.5 environment... but in RSA1 itself they give 3.X functionality also.. So, if you want to follow the 3.5 procedure you can go thru that... in the Infosource tab--> select your info area -->and right clcik it.. ->in that create INFOSOURCE 3.X.. for that just right clcik ur CUBE or DSO and --> Additional functions --> Update Rules.. and like that you can follow the same procedure which you done in 3.5..
    and for data loading in BI 7.0 from fla file means
    fisrt create one Cube or DSO with the same structure which you have in flatfile..
    and activate it..
    ->now comes to Datasource tab> create one Datasource here you need to select type of data for example.. select Transactional data --> and menntion your flatfile name in extraction tab- and file type and eneter your info object names in FIELDS tab --> and load preview data Activate it..
    now select your datasource and create info package and schedule it.. now your data will loded in to PSA level...
    > and now comes to info provider select your cube.. and right clcik it.. and create transformations.,. and activate it..
    > and create DTP -- Activate it.. and Execute it..
    1)Create datasource. Here u can set/check the Soucre System fields.
    2)Create Transformation for that datasource. (no more update rules/transfer rules)
    2.1) While creating transformation for DS it will ask you for data target name, so just assign where u want to update ur data.
    DataSource -> Transformation -> (DTP)-->Data Target
    Now if you want to load data into data target from Source System Datasource:
    1) Create infopackage for that data source. If you are creating infopackage for new datasources, it will only allow you update upto PSA, all other options u can see as disabled.
    2)Now Create DTP (Data Transfer Process) for that data source.
    3) NOw schdule the Infopackage, once the data is loaded to PSA, you can execute your DTP which will load data to data target.
    Data Transfer Process (DTP) is now used to load data using the dataflow created by the Transformation. Here's how the DTP data load works:
    1) Load InfoPackage
    2) Data gets loaded into PSA (hence why PSA only is selected)
    3) DTP gets "executed"
    4) Data gets loaded from PSA into the data target once the DTP has executed
    1) Create a data source
    RSA1->Source Systems->FILE(File)->PC_FILE(Filesourcesystem)->Create Application Component(optional)-Create Data source
    2) Create the data provider
    3) Create Transformation
    Right click on the data provider, choose 'create transformation' and choose your data source (give relevant data source and its type)
    Just connect the relavant fields between your data source and data provider.
    4) Create DTP
    Then Double click on the DTP node created under yous transformations. choose the extraction mode
    5) Load the data: there are 2 ways:
    you can run the infopackage and DTP separately or create a process chain consisting of these infopackage and DTP and run.

  • How can I Move data from one column to another in my access table?

    I have two columns, one that stores current month’s data and one that stores last month’s data. Every month data from column 2 (this month’s data) needs to be moved to column 1 that holds last month’s data. I then null out column 2 so I can accumulates this month’s data.
    I understand how to drop a column or add a column, how do I transfer data from one column to another.
    Here is my trial code:
    <cfquery name="qQueryChangeColumnName" datasource="#dsn#">
      ALTER TABLE leaderboard
      UPDATE leaderboard SET  points2 = points3
    </cfquery>
    Unfortunately, I get the following error:
    Error Executing Database Query.
    [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket][Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in ALTER TABLE statement.
    How can I transfer my data with the alter table method?

    I looked up the Access SQL reference (which is probably a
    good place to start when having issues with Access SQL), and
    it suggests you probably need a WHERE clause in there.
    I agree the documentation is a good place to start. But you should not need a WHERE clause here.
    Too few parameters. Expected 1.
    If you run the SQL directly in Access, what are the results? At the very least, it should provide a more informative error message..
