Sorry Server Config for 11503

I have added a service for the sorr server and I have added the name of the server SorryServer1 to the content rule. However when I suspend the content rule I get a Page Not diplayed instead of the redirect to the Sorry Server.
The config has mulitple Content rules, I am currently only testing on one.
Thanks

Hi,
if you suspend the whole content rule the sorry server can not do it's action as the rule is "down" you need do suspend all services except the sorry server.
Kind Regards,
Joerg

Content Server config for production system - oac0

Hi all
We are setting up content server for our ERP 2005 system, and I am wondering what best practice is for our scenario.
We have one content server (CST) for development and test systems on host A, and one content server (CSP) for production system on host B. The Archive link configuration in dev and test points to CST. When this is transported to production, it will point to the wrong content server and I will have to reconfigure the archivelink in production to point to the correct content server (CSP).
What is the best way to set up the production system to point to the content server CSP on host B? Should I define a new content repository in t-code oac0 in dev, and transport this to production? Should I define the new repository directly in production system??
Please advise.
Best Regards,
Thomas

Hello,
I had the same problem a few years ago with R/3 4.7.
I don't think there is a perfect solution but here is what I did :
In the DEV system, in OAC0, I created 2 content repositories, one for the test sytem and one for the production. I transported these 2 content repositories in the production system.
In the DEV system, in OAC3, I created temporary links from my business objects to my production content repository. I released the request order.
Then I deleted these links which are wrong in the DEV system. I transported the order in the R/3 production system where these links are right.
In the DEV system, in OAC3, I then created the links from my business objects to my TEST content repository. I released the second request order.
So my config is now OK in my test and my production system.
When we refresh the DEV system by a database copy from the production system. We just have to reimport the test request order to switch the links to be OK on the DEV system. We don't have to recreate the test content repository as it was defined als oi nthe production system.
I am not sure that this is clear but this works for us with no problems since 2002.
I hope this helps.

Possible to add and persist elements in server config, for use by cons ext?

I'm considering what will be my obstacles if I try to write a console extension that we would use to view excerpts of an application log file, the application of which is deployed to each server in our domain(s). It doesn't log to the WebLogic server log, it writes it to an external log file (through log4j), and each server (several servers on each box) uses a slightly different path to its log file.
One issue that I'll have is getting the console extension to know what the path to the log file is. I think the best way, over all, is just to have the user enter the path in the form presented by the console extension. My problem is how to persist that setting, because I'd prefer they didn't have to enter that every time they entered the form.
Several years ago, I wrote a console extension for WL 8.1.4 which had a similar issue. I ended up simply writing the setting into a properties file inside the extension WAR. This only works (I believe) if the WAR is deployed exploded. I could do that, but I don't like that idea very much.
What would be nice is if I could "extend" the server config.xml with an additional element in the "Server" element, where I could store this information. Unfortunately, I don't see any support for doing something like that.
Another alternative I'm considering is whether it's possible to extend the "Summary of Log Files" page in "Diagnostics" with an application-specific log file, but I don't see any way to do that.

Well, I appreciate the suggestion, but it's not exactly a secret, to me at least. I've used it for human-readable things recently. It occurred to me that that might be my only option, but I certainly wasn't going to assume that. As it seems like this is likely my only option, I guess I can see some interesting conventions for dealing with this. You have to assume that the field could be written to by other code, and that code would have to make the same assumption. I guess I'd have to define a certain XML element as the root of my structure. If I find it, that region between the start and end element is mine to use and modify. If I don't find it, I'll insert my element at the end of the field value.

Server Config for DMS

Hi All,
We're having SAP ERP ECC 6.0, and are going to implement DMS soon. Can anyone guide me about server configuration required for the same.
Can we use 32bit servers for DMS and integrate it with existing 64bit servers for ERP?
Ashish

Hi,
DMS is part of ECC 6.0, you will only need content server to store DMS documents. It is possible to use 32 bit content server which talks with SAP (your 64 bit install) through http protocols. You need to plan one server for content server, on the same server you can install TREX search engine provides the RAM permits it.

I just deployed a couple 11050's the other day so my experience is limited, but I'd guess your problem is that, when using the Primary Sorry Server, you end up with clients sending HTTPS requests to an HTTP port. Having HTTPS requests redirected to HTTP ports is one thing because the client then makes an HTTP request to that port, but the way you have it above, it appears to me that the client will be talking HTTPS to port 81 on the Sorry Server, which is listening for HTTP.

Sorry Server for CSS 11500

Hi,
I have a question regarding sorry server configuration on the CSS 11500 series.
Is there a way for the sorry server to ignore the URL path and always send the user traffic to the "root" page (e.g. index.html) of the sorry server web server?
The problem I have is the redirection of the "root" page (url "/") that is configured for the normal traffic is causing the sorry page not to work since the URL path ("/psp/CUSTOMER1/?cmd=login") does not exist on the sorry page web server:
service Sorry-Server

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi again,
During a maintenance window I made the following change and that made things a bit better:
service Sorry-Server
type redirect
keepalive type none
redirect-string "192.168.2.254:8000"
active
However, since the redirect string points to a private address, Internet users are not able to access the URL.
As a work-around I sent the redirect to a new content rule with a public address and then configured a second sorry page server:
service Sorry-Server
type redirect
keepalive type none
redirect-string "sorry.example.com:8000"
active
service Sorry-Server-2
ip address 192.168.2.254
protocol tcp
port 8000
keepalive type tcp
active
owner Customer1
content Content2
    vip address x.x.x.x
    add service Sorry-Server-2
    port 8000
    protocol tcp
    active
Is there a better way to do this?
Best regards,
Harry

Care to share your server/hardware config for Spatial?

Hi there - we're in the early stages of planning for a new spatial system (geocoding a large volume of existing address data), and we'd like to get a sense of what different organisations might be using by way of server architecture for a high-availability, large volume dataset GIS where your typical spatial query is a within-polygon or buffer-type search of geocoded address data, and you might need to support several thousand of these per hour... (for example).
Would you share your platform/CPU/OS/memory/storage config comments as they relate to a dedicated Oracle Spatial 10g DBMS?
Or perhaps just suggest what you had to do in addition to the baseline 10gDBMS requirements to give Spatial room to perform well...
Any comments are accepted with humble thanks.
Kind regards
Dennis

Dennis,
Several thousand, say 3000 per hour is less than one a second. I'm not sure how much data you have (define large), but in general I'd try to keep all, or most of the data in RAM to get the best performance possible. A Linux box with say, 512GB of RAM is entirely resonable to use. If your seach patter is geographicly time sensitive (moves based on time of day), you could also effectively use partition prunning to reduce the amount of data to be searched.
This is will give you a single, fast, db. For HA you need at least two, depending on what you define HA as.

JRUN Upgrade for Web Server Config Tool

Recently, I applied the latest connector update discussed in
APSB07-02. Today, I attempted to create a connector to my new CF
cluster and get the following error when using the Web Server
Config tool:
"The JRun server(s) found on host 127.0.0.1 must be upgraded
to use this version of the Web Server Configuration tool"
CF 7.0.2HF1
JRun 4 Updater 6
W2k3 SP1
What update is it refering too?

This issue was asked in 2007 but never answered. It's now 2010 and I am experiencing the same problem. I'm trying to add a new IIS web server for CF. Running CF 7 and the web config tool worked 12 months ago. Now it doesn't... saying the "Jrun server must be upgraded to use this version of the Web Configuration Tool". I've done one jrun patch that I am aware of in the past few months.
So now, does anyone have an answer as to what I have to do to get this thing to run????
Thanks,

How to install and config multi server certificates for hardware servers within one server instance(using different IP addresses?

Hi,
I hope your questions is like this.
one instance is there, and want to install multiple server certs.
Ans:-
I don't think you can install individual certs for all of them. which is not possible, but you can install server certs for particular classes.
In one instance,you can have multiple h/w virtual servers each binded to one ip.
This is possible in iws 6.0,you can install different certs for different virtual classes.
Thanks,
Daks.

Errors in Weblogic server log for Weblogic Portal

Hi,
I apologize if the question has been posted and answered.. I had searched but couldn't find anything in this forum.
My post is a bit lengthy as I will be providing as much details as possible.. sorry about that.. :)
I am new to Weblogic server and Weblogic Portal.. in fact I have never worked on portals. I have installed the Weblogic Portal 10.3.2 along with the Weblogic. I have used quickstart to create a domain. There I have configured the following data sources:
appsGroupSpaceDataSource
cgDataSource
cgDataSource-nonXA
p13nDataSource
portalDataSource
portalDataSourceAlwaysXA
portalDataSourceNeverXA
My database is oracle 11g. I have created a user and granted the user all the admin roles and priviledges
The database connection test had worked for all the sources except appsGroupSpaceDataSource where the test query SELECT COUNT(*) FROM SYSTABLES failed as there was no such table in the database.
I had run the following scripts:
Drop/Create Groupspace Database Objects (appsGroupSpaceDataSource )
Drop/Create P13N Database Objects (p13nDataSource)
Drop/Create Content Database Objects (p13nDataSource)
Drop/Create Portal Database Objects (p13nDataSource)
There were no scripts to run for the other data sources.
After installation whenever I am starting the admin server I am seeing this error in the console:
<Sep 17, 2010 12:48:05 PM IST> <Error> <JDBC> <BEA-001112> <Test "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM SYSTABLES" set up for pool "appsGroupSpaceDataSource" failed with exception: "java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

".>
And the errors are happening in an infinite loop....
I checked and there is no table created in that name in the database.. and being totally new to weblogic I am not sure where else to check.
It would be great if some one could help me track the cause and resolve this..
Thanks a lot for reading the long post.. and double thanks for a reply.. :)
Edited by: 795423 on Sep 17, 2010 12:17 AM

I digged in the weblogic installation directory and it seems like the domain configuration wizard messed up the jdbc configs for the data sources.
The config xml files for the data sources in the /domain root/config/jdbc directory had oracle driver but the test query was for pointbase. I double checked from the database.xml file in the init-info directory and corrected the entry in the datasource config xmls and voila!.. the errors were gone.
I am not sure if this was the right approach and whether i have solved the issue or simply patched it.. so I am keeping the question open. If any one has any inputs I will be grateful.
If the mods/admins feel that the thread should be marked as solved I will surely do so.
Thanks.

ACE sorry server and sticky

I have configured 3 different serverfarms with including realservers
2 of them are with websites, the other 1 is with webservices
I also have configured a sorry server farm and the including rserver.
On the sorry rserver i have configured 2 maintenance websites, listening to an unique hostheader.
So for serverfarm A & B i have configured a seperate maintenance website.
Now when i take rservers from serverfarm A or B down, the sorry server will get active for the needed farm.
However i can only reach 1 maintenance website. And even so, an url used to reach farm A gets on maintenance site from B
This is strange behaviour, doesnt a sorryserver just accept requests with the requested hostheader by the client ?
Also, when i put the rservers from A and B back into service i have to do a "clear stick database all" otherwise the sorryserver will remain active.
What is wrong here ?

Hi Gilles,
Here is our full config, i only changed some domain names.
I'll try to describe the problem again ;
We have published a website by vip 172.30.6.4
We have another website published by vip 172.30.9.4
These websites are hosted by realservers configured in 2 serverfarms and can be reached from the internet (secured by an ASA)
For both of these farms i have configured a sorryserver. This sorry server should serve a webpage containing a maintenance message whenever a farm should get down.
The sorry server is configured with 2 websites, each listening to the specific hostheader. This hostheader is the same as configured on the rservers for the specific farm 172.30.6.4 or 172.30.9.4.
So what i am trying to accomplish is that i only need 1 sorryserver to server 2 sorry webpages, ofcourse listening to a hostheader to get 2 different sorrypages to be returned.
Now when i take all realservers for both serverfarms down, except for the sorryserver, i can only reach 1 sorrypage.
For example, site A and B are down, when i try to reach site A i get to the sorrypage of site A. But when i try to reach site B i too get served the sorrypage of site A.
And also when i "inservice" all rservers again i have to do a "clear sticky database", otherwise the sorryserver will remain active.
Now i have upgraded to the last version of the ACE ios, but i still have to test if the same problem persists so i will give feedback on this later.

Sebastian

CSS Sorry server requirements

Folks,
The documentation says that the sorry server concept will only work if the loadbalancing is done at layer 7. My question is why, why can't i see the sorry server redirect if all services are down when doing load balancing at Layer 3 or Layer 4?

Hi,
Can you point me to those docs. I believe sorry server should work regardless of which layer is the content rule configured to check.
Actually this doc's example is layer 3:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/contnetw/ps789/products_configuration_example09186a0080093de8.shtml
I will build a working config at layer 3 for you soon.

One problem I can see is that you don't have any keepalives configured under the services, so they will default to a Ping. As long as they respond to ping, it will keep traffic going to those servers.
What services run on these Servers? We generally recommend you use as higher layer keepalive as possible, so if it is a web server for example, use a HTTP keepalive.
Have a look here for more info:

ACE 4710 - 'reverse proxy' infront of serverfarm - fail-over/sorry server design issue

Hi All,
I'm working on a specific config and have an issue in the backup farm/fail-over/sorry server area.
The customer wants the following:
They have an existing serverfarm with X web servers, they want a single server to act as a reverse-proxy in front of the farm.
So that all traffic goes trough that server, that server then forwards the request to the original serverfarm.
The problem in my design is in the fail-over, if i configure the reverse-proxy server in a new serverfarm and use the original (web servers) farm as backup it has fail-over, but if the reverse-proxy AND the original serverfarm fail, there is no nice way to get the users on a sorry server.
I could give the original serverfarms rservers a 'backup standby' server but that won't give the desired effect either.
For maintance they first take 50% of the servers offline and switch to the other 50% after that, so then users would see a sorry page even if there where operational servers in the farm left.
The 4710's are running routed mode, and the farms use Sticky Cookie, and also some http URL & Cookie matching is done.
Anyone have an idea how to build this?

Hi,
It need additional testing but as per my understanding if you put the back up in this order then the last backup server will be choosen first.
In your case it will be like " RSERVER1 >> backup sorry server >> backup web content
As per the below example:
I put test 2 as first backup server and test1 as second backup server but if you look at the first part it took rserver test1 as first backup.
serverfarm host 1313-GIN-GWAP-SDC-80
rserver RSERVER1
    backup-rserver test1
    inservice
rserver test1
    inservice standby
rserver test2
    inservice standby
