Log Reader Agent and Snapshot Agent wont start

Hi There,
I've two SQL 2012 servers with multiple instances installed.
I've started replicating the databases in these instances using transactional replication and thus far they've worked without a hitch.
One of my instances, annoyingly, has an issue where the Log Reader Agent and Snapshot Agent refuse to start, and I've followed exactly the same process as with the other instances\databases.
The Agents are configured to make use of a domain user account with sysadmin permissions to the instances on both servers.
I get the following two error when I View Log Reader Agent Status:
The job failed. The Job was invoked by User sa. The last step to run was step 2 (Run agent.).
I've asked the agent to run as my DOMAIN\sqlservice account, so I've no idea why it's moaning about sa?!!?
I get the following error when I View Snapshot Agent Status:
The replication agent has not logged a progress message in 10 minutes. This might indicate an unresponsive agent or high system activity. Verify that records are being replicated to the destination and that connections to the Subscriber, Publisher, and Di
If I try to start either agent I'm told that the request to run job was refused because the job has been suspended, "Changed database context"?? Error 22022.
Can anyone help?

This is because your job owner is sa. Right click on your job and notice the owner - but is should be sa.
You likely have another issue. You may need to run the job and configure it for logging to see what the error is.

CSA agent and NAC agent together

Which one have I to test first ?

Cisco Trust Agent collects security posture information from the NAC-compliant applications running on the network client and reports them to the Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS). These are some NAC-compliant applications:
- Antivirus applications
- Personal firewalls
- Host-based intrusion protection applications, such as Cisco Security Agent (CSA)
Cisco NAC is a strategic element of the Self-Defending Network. Working together with other Self-Defending Network components such as Cisco Security Agent and the Cisco Security Monitoring, Analysis, and Response System (Cisco Security MARS), Cisco NAC helps organizations achieve more accurate threat identification and prevention while increasing patch management efficiency.

KDE4.1 ssh-agent and gpg-agent

Suddenly after an update of kdeworkspace my ssh-agent and gpg-agent have stopped working. Does anyone else have also this problem?
Regards,

I've also had this problem, although I don't know the exact time it stopped working as I have not had to use my laptop to ssh for a while.
Everything seems to get created OK - the socket is created:
[daren@daren_laptop env]$ ll /tmp/gpg-MZi0kX/
total 0
srwxr-xr-x 1 daren daren 0 2009-01-18 10:06 S.gpg-agent
and the env variable points to it:
[daren@daren_laptop env]$ env | grep GPG
GPG_AGENT_INFO=/tmp/gpg-MZi0kX/S.gpg-agent:4508:1
and the agent is running on the correct pid:
[daren@daren_laptop env]$ ps axf | grep gpg-agent
4508 ? Ss 0:00 gpg-agent --daemon
4902 pts/0 R+ 0:00 \_ grep gpg-agent
If i run ssh-add from the command line, I get this:
[daren@daren_laptop env]$ ssh-add
Could not open a connection to your authentication agent.
[daren@daren_laptop env]$
I'm not that clued up on using the agent - it's always "just worked" after adding the script to ~/.kde4/env, but I'm kind of stuck now. There was another post about issues with KDE 4.1 and the agents, but they resolved theirs by doing what I've had setup for a while now.

Doubt in possible agent and responsible agent.

Hi All.
Can any one please help me in solving difference between possbile agents as responsible agents.
As per my understanding we will maintain the possible agents in the task definition and responsible agents in the work flow definition.
For example if a invoice posting needs to be handled,if i define three agents in the task definition as possible agents who will become the responsible agents out of three..
can any one please help me in understanding the difference between possible agent and responsible agent?
Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
It's very small but interesting doubt :P
If in activity level any agent is maintain like we maintain &_wf_initiator& generally. that agent is the responsible agent .. or if any rule is maintained then the agents selected by the rule will be responsible agents but the ..
There is something which you have missed is recipients .. who actually receives the workitems in their inboxs.. these are the user who are the intersection of possible and responsible agents..
In short
Possible agents as you have said..
Responsible are the agents you maintain at activity level or get selected by the rule.
and Recipents who actually gets the workitem..
hope this will help you

Dev

Difference between local agent and standalone agent

Hi all,
Can you please tell me the difference between local agent and standalone agent?
I am getting a bit confused about this.
Regards,
Sourav

Local agent will be running under the context of the main ODI session i.e. it is linked to an open session of the designer, operator etc. Standalone ODI agents run in their own JVM process and could be installed on any server and do not require an open instance of the ODI client GUI to run scenarios

URGENT : MS SQL Server and SAP BW 3.5 Connection problem....

Hello All,
How ya all doin ?
I got job as a fresher, and now we are facing some problem here with
the datasource creation / generation. We have already generated views
& DSs for some tables, for some views we can see the data in the
datasource in the BW datasources but for some views it is giving
information NO DATA IN THE TABLE for that we can see the data in the
DB Table in MS SQL Server using select ......
Kindly help with this issue as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance....
Best Regards....
Sankar Kumar

Hello Sankar,
Thanks...
For Varchar(500) you can try this way.
When you are getting data from DBConnect, include that VARCHAR(500) field in view (so this includes this field to be in transfer structure). But don't map any transfer rules for this field (This avoids the problems to be raised by DB Connect).
Create a Start Routine in the Transfer Rules. In this routine, you can access your VARCHAR(500) field. (I don't know what is your requirement for VARCHAR(500) field with respect to reporting perspective.)
One way is create 9 InfoObjects with char(60). Then parse the varchar(500) field and assign to InfoObject1, InfoObject2 so on....
Another way is, create a table using se11. With key fields to identify individual comments, comment Line number and actual comment. Parse varchar field and insert into this table. Based on your requirement either create a generic extractor using this table and load the data into ODS. Then you can join this ODS and rest of the data ODS and display. or write an ABAP program to show as report using this table...
Hope this helps,
GSM.

App-v cubacs and desktop agent

I have a client who is upgraded their CCM environment to version 10. We will be deploying a CUBACs server and client and contact centre express desktop agent and supervisor agent. They are also looking at deploying the desktop applications in a Microsoft App-V (ver 5.0.12180). I have a quick google search to see if the App-V environment is support for these but not found anything. Has anyone out there come across deploying these packages in an App-V environment, and if so are the any issue?

See the App-V client to see if it is attempting to delete the shortcuts during a refresh - you may need to set the log to verbose mode first.

How to route the workitem to Agent, when no agent found

1.when agent is not found, i was able to see the workitem in swi2_freq.
If this is case, how do i send workitem to an agent?
2. As this is a general task, but i didn't see this workitem in all user's inbox. is it true that if agent not found for a workitem,will be sent to all agents?
3. I set my userid as workflow administrator, but still am not able to forward workitems to any user in sap.(lack of authorizations). What kind of authorizations required to forward a workitem.
Any inputs on this...

1. Either you can set default agents for the task (or) modify the container elements in transaction SWIA (or) complete it manually without agent.
2. Its true that, for a task specified as general task, all users become possible agents. Remember that they dont become responsible agents. SAP agent assignment always take the intersection of possible and responsible agents. If you donts specify responsible agents, you cannot see workitem in anyone's inbox.
3. As told earlier, if you dont have authorization, check for the auth object in SU53 and get that added to your profile. Anyways, you can also check for the SAP provided standard authorizations for the workflow users in sap.com

Load table structure definition from Sql server and mirroring

Hi, we have to replicate some tables from sql server
into SAP dictionary.
Is there a tool/transaction for import the table structure
from a DBRMS like sql/oracle ?
Adn is there some third part solution for replicate data
from/to sql server and Sap ?
Thanks in advance.
Riccardo Galli.

Hi,
Dont know if there are any tools for this but onething is sure you will need to create the table thru SE11.
I had done something similar, created a BDC to create table and it works.
Provide the BDC with list of fields, datatype, len, key fields and the BDC will create the table.
You will need to activate the table once its created, for some reason sap put the table in "partial active" status after creation .
Good luck.
Ravi

SQL Server Agent and Jobs and executing @EventData

I have a SQL Server Agent Job and within it a Job Step which states "Execute Report Subscriptions" and a command which has...
exec msdb.dbo.sp_start_job '6FF53AED-855F-43AB-9FB7-064062B8012E' --9:07 subscription
GO
WAITFOR DELAY '00:08';
Now, I find within SQL Server Agent the Job '6FF53AED-855F-43AB-9FB7-064062B8012E' and its step command which is...
exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='ca4e5410-2758-4a1a-9b06-513821e0d962'
How can I drill-down further into the @EventData 'ca4e5410-2758-4a1a-9b06-513821e0d962' to see what it does? I do not see 'ca4e5410-2758-4a1a-9b06-513821e0d962' within SQL Server Agent and Jobs or am I way off base here as to what exactly the @EventData
parameter seems to be?
Thanks for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Hi ITBobbyP,
According to your description, you need to know the what does SQL Server Reporting Services do when fire a subscription, right?
When you create a subscription several things are added to the RS server
A row is placed in the Subscriptions table identifying the name of the report, along with parameter settings, data driven query info and so on to process the subscription
A row is placed in the Schedule and ReportSchedule tables with the timing of the subscription
A SQL Server Agent job is created to control the scheduled execution of the report, and this is stored in the sysjobs and sysjobsteps of the MSDB database.
When the subscription runs several things happen
The SQL Server Agent job fires and puts a row in the Event table in the RS catalog with the settings necessary to process the subscription
The RS server service has a limited number of threads (2 per CPU) that poll the Event table every few seconds looking for subscriptions to process
When it finds an event, it puts a row in the Notifications table and starts processing the subscription
Please refer to the links below to see the details.

Mapping del credere agent and consignment stockist in sap sd

Dear Gurus
My client has trading business with IOCL company acted as a del credere agent and consignment stockist. Generally, IOCL sending the material our company go down. we do the business with the customers and we are paying the amount to the IOCL in advance and we are taking the money from the customer. For doing this business we are getting from the IOCL. we are also maintaining RG23D register. Our go downs are registered as depot. But we are not selling the material directly, please tell me how can we map this scenario.
Regards

hi,
Sales office is termed as an internal organisation element in SAP. ie:- Its a representation of the company at a specified geography.
The distributor is always a customer for the business. The operations of the distributor are completely different from the company. Hence, mapping distributor as a sales office is completely ruled out.
The distributors can be taken as a DISTRIBUTION CHANNEL in the org structure.
All the distributors are created as customers in a specific sales area.
Secondary sales is a business activity happening from the distributor to the dealer.
So, in any business automation(not only SAP) we need not automate this activity.
This would be automated by the distributors. We can only frame business regulations in domain for the secondary sales but not automate it.
Reward if helpful.
regards,
sriram
