SSM 7.0 Sizing

Dear All,
We want to do the sizing for SSM 7.0. As per the document by SAP, we need to use the quick sizing tool. But there is no seperate link for SSM ot NW CE 7.1.
Any one know about the sizing for SSM 7.0, please let us know.
Regards,
JP.

Ankita's recommendation is good for an initial implementation. When usage (and users) increase, you will need to accommodate more files. Experience has shown that Operational Reviews can use a sizable amount of space over time.
SSM brings data in from other sources, rather than trying to store it all itself. One other size consideration is when a query for outside data may take a very long time to load, then it is recommended to have that data reside in SSM. Suitable space would need to be provided if that is the case.
I would suggest a higher amount of RAM -- at least 4 GB -- if a VM is going to be involved. There are some customers that have DEV, QA, and PROD with two of those being VMs. The more VMs are involved, the more you have to consider how much RAM is available to prevent performance issues.
There is a sizing guide available on the Service Marketplace for SSM 7.0
http://service.sap.com/instguidesCPM-STM - click on SAP Strategy Management 7.0 and then choose the SAP Strategy Management Sizing document from the list. This sizing guide can be also used for SSM 7.5 as well.

SAP SSM Standard vs SAP SSM Enterprise

Hi Everyone,
We would like to utilize SAP Strategy Management, however, we are still in the process of reviewing the functionality. Right now we are tangled between SSM Standard and SSM Enterprise. Can anyone give us an idea what's the difference between the two? And we were advised that SSM Enterprise has integration templates available; how can we get those templates? In a cost standpoint, what will be the recommended of the two?
Thank you very much for sharing your thoughts on this.
PS. Were can we get a detailed documentation of the functionality of the two.

Rally,
SSM uses Contexts as a way of cascading strategy throughout an organization. Each Context within SSM can have different goal diagrams as well as having more specific objectives. Think of a Context as how an organization looks at their business. A Context can be regions, it can be functional areas - finance, HR, manufacturing, marketing, etc., it can be lines of business - gas delivery, electrical delivery, customer service, or combinations of those.
Since individual users are accessing SSM, the administrator could designate which Contexts they have access to. That way the Southeast Region's salespeople could see their objectives and KPIs for the Southeast, but for no other region. A sales manager could have access to several of the regions they were responsible for.
A multidimensional Model is associated with Contexts and it, as well, can be used to provide the appropriate data and metrics for users. A Model is what is constructed to define the type of data, its dimensions, measures, and KPIs.
As far as functionality and features goes, there is no difference between Edge and Enterprise. Edge has all of the same tabs available: Home, Strategy, Scorecards, Dashboards, Initiatives, and Reports. It allows Operational Reviews, Comments, Alerts, and the same individual perference settings as Enterprise. The limitations for Edge should still meet the needs of small or medium sized organizations.
EPM is the suite of applications of which SSM is a part. For the difference between 7.0 and 7.5, each of the individual products will have their own enhancements as well as additional integration with other products in the suite. The 7.5 versions of EPM products are still in the Ramp Up process, while I believe the 7.0 versions are in general availability. SSM is available as an individual application or can be purchased as part of the EPM suite.

Error in updating schema in SSM 7.0

Hi,
When I am updating schema in SSM 7.0, I am getting below error:
An Error has occurred in the scipt on this page.

Thanks
Anuj

Hi Anuj,
You mention in your first post you are loading cube. Are you really mapping a BW infocube to a PAS model? It is usually a good idea to build a query on top of the cube, makes it easier to control what is being imported to PAS.
Anyway, besides that message, can you find any error in the trace file? Search in the home folder for the trace file BICTRACE_SCHEMA_xxxxPBI.

Cannot connect to a named instance using SSMS from a remote machine

Hi all,
SQL Server.....: 2012 EE
OS...................: Windows Server 2008 R2
I have a desktop machine, that i am using to administrer SQL Server (via SSMS) and to develop my SSIS solutions, but i can't connect to a named instance of my SQL Server. When i try to connect using SSMS to my named instance (myhost\DWSERVER)
i get a huge error message:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establisinh a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.
(provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10060)
Locally, i am able to access that named instance using SSMS, just when i try to access from another machine, the above error pops-up to me.
I am using the SQL Server Authentication mode to connect to the named instance.
What am i doing wrong?
Thanks in advance.

That's correct, i can connect to my default instance both locally and remotelly. The default instance in on port 1433. I cannot find the port used by the named instance (DWSERVER).
Actually, i found this on the errorlog from the named instance:

Diagram Not getting displayed on the Front End UI in SSM 7.5

Hello ,
We are running SSM 7.5 SP 04. We uploaded a custom image using diagram manager for the required context in the administration UI. The image is uploaded successfully. But , when I open the strategy tab for my context in the front end UI , I am getting a "HTTP 500 Page cannot be displayed error".
I restarted the listeners and the JPIP sessions as well. But still the error persists. Please advise.
Thanks and Regards
Vijay

Vijay,
It is possible to successfully upload a strategy map into Diagram Manager and still not see it in the User Interface. After loading the goal diagram has to be Published To Server. You do that in Diagram Manager.
You can upload a strategy map and Save that in Strategy Default in Administrator Interface, but unless you Publish it, it will not be exposed to the end users.
In the Set Strategy Defaults area of the Administrator Interface, in the Create or Edit Goal Diagrams section. The Goal Diagram you loaded should have a Publish Date next to it. If it says Not Published, you need to Edit that Goal Diagram in Diagram Manager,
In Diagram Manager under FILE at the top, choose Publish to Server.
You now should see a Publish Date in the Administrator interface and Saving it will now make it available on the user side.

Bob

SSMS 2014 File Extensions

Why can't I associate file extensions within SSMS 2014? I want .TAB, .PRC, .UDF, etc. to open as a .SQL file would, i.e. connected to a server and with appropriate syntax colour coding.
Adding an extension in Tools\Options\Text Editor\File Extensions has no effect. This is using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 12.0.2000.8.
Worth lodging a bug report?

That's not the problem. Files such as .PRC or .UDF will open within SSMS 2014 when double-clicked from Explorer, however they don't have syntax colouring, don't offer the option to specify a server connection and can't be executed, (not surprising
if they're not connected to a server!).
This looks like a bug that was previously reported in SQL 2012, which if this is the case, is frankly pathetic from MS. Every organisation I've worked for differentiate their database object types by these kind of file extensions, so my current employer
is certainly not unique in this. IF this can't be resolved I'll have to pay for something that will work, such as Quest's Toad product, not ideal when I've already paid a huge sum of money for SQL Server.

"Memory Sizing" error on Sun Fire V65x

Hello.
I have some trouble with my old Sun Fire V65x and i hope that you guys can help me out.
I had 2,5GB RAM installed in my server, working flawless. 2 x 256MB and 2 x 1GB modules. 256-modules in Bank 1 and 1GB´s in Bank 2.
To get rid of the boot up warning of wrong memory configuration i moved the 2 1GB modules to bank 3 (as stated in the manual) but that was when the problem started.
In this configuration the server won't go to POST, i tried moving the 1GB modules around between bank 1, 2 & 3 without any result.
The server will not go to POST. No beeps, no nothing. When turning the server on line it starts up, the fans starts running on at maximum speed and that's all, no picture and no POST and the system warning LED turns to red. After a couple of minutes in this state the fans slow down for a couple of seconds and then back to 100% (repeating cycle)
The POST diagnostics LEDs at the back of the main board indicates POST code 13h, "Memory sizing". The main board does not report any defective DIMMs, also worth mentioning is that the 2 256MB DIMMs are working flawlessly in all banks.
I have tried:
Resetting the memory config in BIOS (using the 2x256 DIMMs and then installing the 2 1GB modules.
Moving the memory modules around between different banks, both alone and with the 2 256MB DIMMs present.
Clearing the CMOS settings.
Searching manuals and Google for hours without answer to my problem or what "memory sizing " means in this situation.
System:
Sun Fire V65x
1 CPU
If anyone know the answer to my dilemma and are willing to help me, i would be really grateful.
Sadly i do not have the possibility to test the memory modules in another system.
Best regards. Erik Järlestrand, Sweden.

Hardware. A reboot will probably not do anything. From what I can tell, it's a CPU cache problem. If you do anything, shut the system down completely, turn the power off for a minimum of 20 seconds to let any residual electricty go away, the turn it back on. If the problem returns, you'll most likely need to either get a new CPU module or a new V100. I don't know if the CPU can be removed from the V100 motherboard, but since there are jumper settings for the speed I would assume that you can.

I publish a 41mb newsletter monthly into interactive pdf. It always becomes a file size of 4mb, 10% of original, when I save to pdf. This month my newsletter is 41mb and it drops to 11mb, 25% of original. I have re-sized all pictures, deleted pages separa

I publish a 41mb InDesign newsletter monthly into interactive pdf. It always becomes a file size of 4mb, 10% of original, when I save to pdf. This month my newsletter is 41mb and it drops to 11mb, 25% of original. I have re-sized all pictures, deleted pages separately, have gotten the file size down to 16mb and it drops to 7mb, 45% of original.
I have gone back and saved Feb and March and it saves to 10% of original, as it did before, and I use the same mechanism to save now.
I have gone to Acrobat Pro and optimized down to 8.8mb, but the quality is not acceptable.
What other variable is there that I haven't discovered?

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

Problem with JPanel sizing!

Hi,
Just having a bit of difficulty with the sizing of JPanels. For example, if I create a JPanel and add it to a Frame, no matter what I set the size to the JPanel fills the entire Frame. I don't really know whats going on here and I'm just making guesses! If anyone has a good resource on the whole sizing thing or can point out what I'm doing wrong, that would be great. Thanks!
// Constructor
public void ClassName()
        mainWindow = new JFrame();
        mainWindow.setSize(mainWindowWidth, mainWindowHeight);
        mainWindow.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        JPanel aPanel = new JPanel();
        aPanel.setSize(mainWindowWidth/2,mainWindowHeight/2); );
        aPanel.setBackground(Color.GREEN);
        mainWindow.add(aPanel);
        mainWindow.validate();
}Edited by: LeWalrus on May 18, 2009 5:03 AM

By default, JFrame uses a BorderLayout which gives the center component (your panel in this case) all available height and width.
For absolute positioning you need to use a null layout.
If you want a layout manager that can let your panel fill half the height/width, I think it might be possible with GridBagLayout or more recommended MiGLayout (but that adds a third party jar dependency).
See the [layout tutorial|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/layout/index.html].

Problem with Photos and Camera and Sizing Set

I have a 3gs and upgraded to 4.0. Things seemed fine but yesterday when I opened up the Camera Roll in Photos there was 1 picture showing and a large black rectangular box. No other photos were showing. I tapped on the black box and it showed all the photos using the slider to go from 1 to the next. I couldn't figure out how to get rid of the black box so that all the photos showed up normally, so I deleted each of the photos. The size of the box shrank as each photo was deleted. Then when I went into Photos, it opened with an empty screen and immediately closed. I then tried to use the Camera and it started up and immediately closed. So I sent myself an email with a photo and saved it to Photos. Its there and so is the black box! Now the camera will work! To further complicate, I decided I'd use the photo for wallpaper. Problem is I can't size it!! I can move it and size it with my fingers, but then when I release, it immediately pops back to full size and I can't "Set" the image size. Does anyone have any idea what's going on!!

Well I solved it. I uploaded my photos to My Gallery. Then I took a photo with the camera and saved it. I then deleted all the other photos except the one I just took. Then I exited Photos and then came back in and it was working fine, so I then downloaded the photos that I had just uploaded to My Gallery. Still have a problem though with sizing the photos for the Lock and Home screens. I can't get the Set button to hold a size. Any ideas on that?

NEW NICHE DEVICE NEEDED: a MINI sized moitor for portbility!!

The first time I saw the Mini, in my mind I envisioned an entire desktop ensemble comprised of Mini sized gadgets- smaller sized keyboards, little mice, cute little USB HD's and yes an itty bitty sized flat screen monitor like those digi picture frames that everyone is making! This is the biggest no brainer solution which so far has escaped the entire industry!
The Mini,after all is no smaller and no more portable than the size of the largest periphrial device in the desktop system.The smallest monitor sold in any retail store is currently 17" diag. and what we need is half that size. Funny how everyone jumped on the Mac Mini fashion statement to make external drives and every other kind of USB periphrial device within the chassias size of the Mini which was smart niche marketing...except they neglected to exploit the ultimate ADVANTAGE the Mini could afford as being the smallest most power and capable desktop system. Perhaps Apple neglected to embellish this advantage in order to prevent the affordable Mini from hurting its laptop sales.Just a theory. But third party vendors have also ignored this obvious design advantage and have not given us any Mini sized keyboards and monitors.
Now we see so called Mac Mini-designed keyboards that are smaller than those huge surfboard sized ergonomic shaped padded boards that serve well as a desktop bed pillow and arm rest but these new keyboards are really just the old skool no-frills boards that are smaller than the new styled surfboard sized ones.
While I can carry my Mini +my 500Gb USB external drive +mouse +power adaptor inside a cute leather shaving kit bag, the modularity factor becomes a JOKE when I walk into a Starbucks or Public Library with a 22" Flat screen monitor under one arm and my little shaving bag in my hand!!I got yelled at by two fat ladies at the Library when after asking them if I can plug my Mini into their ac wall socket I went to my car and returned with my fullsized roller suitcase containing my shaving bag with Mini Plus my billboard sized flat screen monitor.
"We don't allow HUGE MAYFLOWER MOVING TRILER SIZED suitcases inside the Public Library ,sir!! YOU MUST LEAVE AT ONCE OR GET RID OF THAT SUITCASE!"
"But,madame sir, this is my Mac "MINI"..its mini mini mini mini OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE TWO ROLLER SUITCASES-One for my Mac Tower of Power and one for my billowing billboard sized monitor!!!!", I pleaded. Then I rolled my empty roller suitcase outside (its back-up beeper beeping as I carefully navigated through the metel detector gates.UuuuGhhhh
Watch...someone flunky engineer in some company somewhere will read this post and get a light bulb over his otherwise empty skull and get himself one huge promotion by sketching a new Mac Mini 10 " flatscreen monitor that sells cheap for $100! I'm here waiting with cash in hand...

Google is your friend.
I got a bunch of hits on +portable monitors+, however I have used these folks for personal projects before: lilliput
Folks started using these things in car installations of home computers, and a niche market for folks that want portable monitors was born.

Your assumption is that folks who need portability prefer to use a fragile battery powered toy with a PDA style rinky **** keypad with tiny trackball gizmo and that assumption is dead wrong. Proof lies in the keyboard/mice/periphrial device aisle of any computer store. You see tons of USB devices for laptops intended solely to provide desktop system features/capability that the laptop doesn't provide. An lets not forget to add the cost of repairing these fragile thin puters..replacing adaptor cords and battery packs etc . Soon you've got more $ tied up ina laptop than you ever intended.
Personally I've yet to meet ANY laptop user who LOVES the tricky pain in the a**
trackball navigation mechanism and compact PDA-like keypad. Everyone I know relies upon a USB mouse and most folks are plugging fullsize keybords into their slim fragile overpriced laptops because pecking on the rinky **** keypad toy greatly increases the risk of damaging or dropping the computer. ( They are merely trying to minimize the need to touch the machine as they work which is smart thinking ..its the desktop systems design strategy as well.
The machine itself need not be touched and so we use wireless or USB periphrial devices . The Mini therefore is classified as a desktop but by definition "desktop system "does not preclude the need nor capability for modular portability and besides the MAC MINI IS BY FAR MORE DURABLE AND IMPACT RESISTANT THAN ANY LAPTOP so there goes your premis out the window.
I'll bet you one dozen ac powered laptop chiller pads, two sticks of DDR RAM and five laptop replacement power adaptors/battery chargers ('cause you laptop users seem to go through these pricey adaptors/cords faster than alkaline
batteries in a boombox at a beach bikini contest!) that if you displayed a Mac Mini with a small 10"screen sitting beside it and full size keyboard/mouse priced for $850 in the Apple store laptop sales would puke.
There's no debate that when you need thin notebook sized
modularity and battery pwr the laptop is the only solution.
I've not been hampered by the lack of battery powerpack just the lack of
a small monitor.

In SSMS after creating the query Report, how to export excel the same report from SSMS

for Beginners in SSMS after the report is created , how to export the same report to excel, I did try the option to task and export and follow the procedure, this procedure does not export the same report, the one was created, unless I am missing some steps,
is there a way to do just like we do in SSRS go to solution explorer, and properties and add the Target Server URL or not
in SSMS,
after I save the report it saves in project , can some one please guide me how to do it, and what steps I am doing wrong,
any help will be great. I am not technical person, just starting to learn from internet.
thanks in advance.

As you have said you are not a technical person try using Import Export wizard.
Refer this link
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertutorial/203/simple-way-to-import-data-into-sql-server/
And another simplest one is to copy the result set from the query window. Right click the result and select "Copy with Headers".
