Standy on diff OS

Hi All,
I have a production database running on Sun Solaris 8 64 bit platform and oracle version is 9.2.0.5 (64 bit).
My question is can I create a standby database for this production DB on different server with different OS like Windows 2000 or on Linux Advanced server.
Thanks in Advanced

Data Guard is free. Has been since it was introduced. Please identify where you got this incorrect information.
For confirmation, in the 9i database doc the reference to Data Guard is under the Oracle9i Database Release 2 Features section of the New Features doc Appendix which details the features that are included free, which ones are not available for Standard and which ones are for-extra-charge options.
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96531/ch5_edit.htm#73594
Same doc in 10g is the Licensing guide.
You are correct that you must license the standby database - if it is standby and not failover (ie. it is running more than 10 days a year). That is true whether you use Data Guard or not. For that you go to the Database Licensing doc at http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/specialtopics.html

What is diff b/w sy-index and sy-tabix

Hi all,
Can u plz give me the diff b/w sy-index and sy-tabix exactly and how it works.
Thanks & Regards
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
1.SY-INDEX
->Current loop pass
->In a DO or WHILE loop, SY-INDEX contains the number of loop passes including the current pass.
2.SY-TABIX
->Current line index
Current line of an internal table. SY-TABIX is set by the statements below, but only for index tables.
The field is either not set or is set to 0 for hashed tables.
APPEND sets SY-TABIX to the index of the last line of the table, that is, it contains the overall number of entries in the table.

COLLECT sets SY-TABIX to the index of the existing or inserted line in the table. If the table has the type HASHED TABLE, SY-TABIX is set to 0.
LOOP AT sets SY-TABIX to the index of the current line at the beginning of each loop lass. At the end of the loop, SY-TABIX is reset to the value that it had before entering the loop. It is set to 0 if the table has the type HASHED TABLE.
READ TABLE sets SY-TABIX to the index of the table line read. If you use a binary search, and the system does not find a line, SY-TABIX contains the total number of lines, or one more than the total number of lines. SY-INDEX is undefined if a linear search fails to return an entry.

SEARCH <itab> FOR sets SY-TABIX to the index of the table line in which the search string is found.
I think that it clears ur doubt.
Thanks,
Venkat.O

diff b/n sy-tabix and sy-indx ?

Hi Henry,
SY-INDEX is the value of the current iteration. It is applicable for the following programming constructs in ABAP -
DO...ENDDO.
WHILE...ENDWHILE.
SY-TABIX (TABle IndeX) is applicable to internal tables. If you scroll down in the link which Eddie has given, you will find a more detailed explanation for sy-tabix and which statements affect its value.

Wht is diff b/w sy-ucomm and ok code

hi,
what is diff b/w sy-ucomm and ok-code
Regards,
Rani.

Hi,
sy-ucomm is for doing the functions what the user wishes to do at that particular event. You use it in menus and other place . this mainly in using <pfstatus>
ok_code is generally used in screen as of I have used. You will define the function in the screen. and you can use it in the main program.
ok_code acts just as a temporary variable that stores the value of sy-ucomm.
When user interacts with the screen elements, the function code that you have assigned is filled in the sy-ucomm field which is turn gets reflected in OK_CODE.
In your ABAP programs, you should work with the OK_CODE field instead of SY-UCOMM. There are two reasons for this: Firstly, the ABAP program has full control over fields declared within it, and secondly, you should never change the value of an ABAP system field. However, you should also always initialize the OK_CODE field in an ABAP program for the following reason:
In the same way that the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program and the system field SY-UCOMM receive the contents of the corresponding screen fields in the PAI event, their contents are also assigned to the OK_CODE screen field and system field SYST-UCOMM in the PBO event. Therefore, you must clear the OK_CODE field in the ABAP program to ensure that the function code of a screen is not already filled in the PBO event with an unwanted value. This is particularly important when the next PAI event can be triggered with an empty function code (for example, using ENTER). Empty function codes do not affect SY-UCOMM or the OK_CODE field, and consequently, the old field contents are transported.

Diff betw SY-LSIND and SY-LILLY

Hi,
Tel me the Diff betw SY-LSIND and SY-LILLY.?
Points wil b rewarded for useful answers.
Thanx in advance.

Hi Pavitra
SY-LSIND
Index of the list that is being created (basic list: 0, detail list > 0). Each time an interactive list event occurs, the system automatically increases SY-LSIND by 1. SY-LSIND can be changed in the ABAP program to navigate between detail lists. Changes to SY-LSIND are not taken into account until the end of the list event. Therefore, any manipulation of SY-LISND should be done using the last command of the processing block.
SY-LILLI
Line from which the event was triggered Counting begins at 1 and includes the page header.
and here is one more
SY-LISTI
List Index of the list from which the event was triggered

Diff b/w Intercompany Billing and TPO.

Hi SAP gurus,
What is the diff b/w Inter company Billing and Third Party Order

Dear Sabina
Inter Company Billing
You can set up your system in such a way that one purchasing organization procures material for a plant from a vendor (plant) that belongs to another company code within the same client (corporate group). This is an instance of an inter-company-code stock transfer with an SD delivery and a billing document
Third Party Billing
In third-party processing, you place a purchase order with a vendor to deliver goods or perform a service for a third party (for example, for a customer).
This means that your company does not deliver the material. You forward the order to an external vendor instead, who then sends the material directly to the customer and invoices you.
Third-party processing is carried out in the components SD (Sales and Distribution) and MM (Materials Management). By creating a third-party item in a sales order, purchase requisition, or purchase order, you can request that the vendor sends the goods directly to your customer. A document can consist of one or more third-party items.
Thanks

Diff b/w select single * .... and select....up to 1 row

Hi Abapers,
What is the diff b/w Select single * from.... and select * ...up to 1 row.
Thanks in advance.
Subbu.

Select SINGLE...
SINGLE
The result of the selection should be a single entry. If it is not possible to identify a unique entry, the system uses the first line of the selection. If you use the FOR UPDATE addition, the selected entry is protected against parallel updates from other transactions until the next database commit (see LUW and database lock mechanism). If the database system identifies a deadlock, a runtime error occurs.
... UP TO n ROWS
Effect
The set of results is restricted to a maximum of nrows.
Example
To output a list of the 3 business customers with the greatest discount:
DATA WA_SCUSTOM TYPE SCUSTOM.
SELECT * FROM SCUSTOM INTO WA_SCUSTOM UP TO 3 ROWS
 WHERE CUSTTYPE = 'B'
 ORDER BY DISCOUNT DESCENDING.
WRITE: / WA_SCUSTOM-ID, WA_SCUSTOM-NAME, WA_SCUSTOM-DISCOUNT.
ENDSELECT.
Notes
If you use an UP TO n ROWS addition in an ORDER-BY clause , the lines read are sorted into the correct order. The first n lines are then displayed. The system may need to read more than n lines from the database to be able to do this.
If n = 0, all selected lines are displayed.
n < 0 results in a runtime error.
Knowing when to use SELECT SINGLE or SELECT ... UP TO 1 ROWS
A lot of people use the SELECT SINGLE statement to check for the existence of a value in a database. Other people prefer to use the 'UP TO 1 ROWS' variant of the SELECT statement.
So what's the difference between using 'SELECT SINGLE' statement as against a 'SELECT .... UP TO 1 ROWS' statement ?
If you're considering the statements
SELECT SINGLE field INTO w_field FROM table.
and
SELECT field INTO w_field FROM table UP TO 1 ROWS. ENDSELECT.
then looking at the result, not much apart from the extra ENDSELECT statement. Look at the run time and memory usage and they may be worlds apart.
Why is this ?? The answer is simple.
The 'SELECT SINGLE' statement selects the first row in the database that it finds that fulfils the 'WHERE' clause If this results in multiple records then only the first one will be returned and therefore may not be unique.
The 'SELECT .... UP TO 1 ROWS' statement is subtly different. The database selects all of the relevant records that are defined by the WHERE clause, applies any aggregate, ordering or grouping functions to them and then returns the first record of the result set.
Get the difference ??
If not, here is a good example, credit for this example goes to Richard Harper, a friend of mine on sapfans.com :
Create a Ztable called ZDifference with 2 fields in it, MANDT of type MANDT and POSNR of type POSNR. Make sure both of these are keys. Also create a table maintenance dialog for it (SE11->Utilities->Table Maintenance Generator). Fill the table with ten rows 000001-000010.
Then run the program shown below:
Report Z_Difference
 Message-id 38
 Line-Size 80
 Line-Count 0
 No Standard Page Heading.
Start-Of-Selection.
Data: w_Single type Posnr,
 t_Rows type standard table of Posnr
 initial size 0
 with header line.
Select single Posnr
 from zDifference
 into w_Single.
Select Posnr
 into table t_Rows
 from zDifference
 up to 1 rows
 order by Posnr descending.
 Write :/ 'Select single:', w_Single.
 Skip 1.
 Write :/ 'Up to 1 rows :'.
 Loop at t_Rows.
 Write t_Rows.
 EndLoop.
You should see the output:
Select single: 000001
Up to 1 rows : 000010
The first 'SELECT' statement selected the first record in the database according to any selection criterion in the 'WHERE' clause. This is what a 'SELECT SINGLE' does. The second 'SELECT' has asked the database to reverse the order of the records before returning the first row of the result.
In order to be able to do this the database has read the entire table, sort it and then return the first record. If there was no ORDER BY clause then the results would have been identical (ie both '000001') but the second select if given a big enough table to look at would be far slower.
Note that this causes a problem in the Extended Program Check if the full key is not specified in a 'SELECT SINGLE'. Replacing the 'SELECT SINGLE' by an "UP TO 1 ROWS" will give the same exact results without any warning but the program will run slower and consume more memory. This is a good example of a warning that we should ignore... considering you are sure of what you are doing !!

Diff. b/w 3.5 and 3.0b

Hi bwers,
Please let me know the diff. b/w 3.5 and 3.0b. Tell me in an explanation way rather than sending the documents. Thanks in advance.
And one more query is i have a cube consisting of a 3requests in green and 1 red request and a 3 requests green.. Is it possible to delete that red request and if so what will be the affect ..

Hi,
the main difference of 3.5 in respect to 3.0b is the broadcasting and some other front-end functions... The datawarehousing workbench is the same.
Business content is also enhanced in 3.5....
SEM-BPS also enhanced...
Yes you can delete that red request and you will then miss this data. Check if this request needs to posted in the cube. If yes then analyze why it failed. Take the corrective measures and try to repost it.
If you don't need it then just delete it.
hope this helps,
Olivier.

Diff B/W master data and transaction data

Hi all,
What is the main Diff B/W master data and transaction data. give me some example ?
Thanks in Advance
Krish...

hi krish,
MASTER Data is the data that exists in the organization like employee details, material master, customer master, vendor master etc. These are generally created once.
Master data are distributed throughout the company, they are often not standardised and often redundant. As a result it is very costly to offer efficient customer service, keep track of supply chains and make strategic decisions. With SAP Master Data Management (SAP MDM) these important business data from across the company can be brought together, harmonised and made accessible to all staff and business partners. As a key component of SAP NetWeaver, SAP MDM ensures data integrity via all IT systems.
Regardless of the industry, companies often work with different ERP and Legacy systems. The result: the business processes are based on information about customers, partners and products which is displayed in different ways in the systems. If the data are recorded manually, there are more inconsistencies: some data sets are entered several times, others cannot be retrieved by all divisions of the company.
As corporate applications are becoming increasingly complex and produce ever greater amounts of data, the problem is intensified further. Nevertheless, your employees must work with the inconsistent data and make decisions on this basis. The lack of standardised master data easily leads to wrong decisions, which restrict efficiency and threaten customer satisfaction and profitability.
In a word: in order to save costs and ensure your companys success it is necessary to consolidate master data about customers, partners and products, make them available to all employees beyond system boundaries and use attributes valid company-wide for the purpose of description.
TRASNACTION Data - These are the business documents that you create using the master data - Purchase orders, sales orders etc

Diff b/w occurs 0 and occurs1?

Hi
what is the main diff b/w occurs 0 and occurs1?
thanks and regards,
sap abap.

OCCURS 0 creates an internal table with no rows pre-buit in it upon creation.
OCCURS 1 creates an internal table with 1 row pre-built in it upon creation.
The changing of OCCURS upon creation is really only benenficial when you KNOW ahead of time that a certain number (or large number) of rows WILL NEED to be created on-the-fly. In these cases, you will get better run-time execution by having an OCCURS 10000, for example.IF you know that at least 10,000 rows will be needed, this will help your prog to run faster as it does not need to expand the table EACH time (or at least until it reaches beyond 10K).
Creating the additional rows during r/t is expensive, if you can have the foresight to know in advance for large progs, you can help the run-time engine.
Don't forget points for helpful answers.

Diff b/w reference type and elementary type

hi all
can any one what is the diff b/w reference type and elementary type in data element ....
thanks
lokesh

The data type attributes of a data element can be defined by:
Specifying a domain whose attributes are copied by the data element.
Specifying a build-in type where the data type, number of places, and possibly decimal places can be directly specified.
Specifying a reference type, i.e. reference to a class, an interface, a type defined in the Dictionary, a built-in type, or a generic reference to ANY or DATA.
In the maintenance screen you can set the option you require by setting the appropriate flag (domain, built-in type, reference type) and filling in the corresponding input fields.
A reference type is a reference to another type. There are the following kinds of reference types:
Reference to a class or an interface
Reference to a type defined in the Dictionary
Generic reference to ANY, OBJECT, or DATA
Reference to a built-in Dictionary type with specification of the length and possibly also the decimal places
You can use a reference type to define the data type properties for a data element, or for typing the component of a structure or the line type of a table type.
In the field Referenced type, enter the name of a class, an interface, the generic references DATA, OBJECT, ANY, or the name of a type defined in the Dictionary. If the reference type is to be a predefined Dictionary type, choose the reference to the predefined type. Enter the number of characters and, if required, the number of decimal places.
where as
The data class describes the data format at the user interface.
If a table field or structure field or a data element is used in an ABAP program, the data class is converted to a format used by the ABAP processor. When a table is created in the database, the data class of a table field is converted to a corresponding data format of the database system used.
You can find a detailed description of the data classes allowed in the ABAP Dictionary in Overview of the Data Classes.
