The GHOST Vulnerability VMware Products

Good morning,
I have been asked to verify if the recently released Ghost Vulnerability effects any of the VMware products that we have in house. Here are the products that we have:
ESXi 5.0 - 5.5
vCenter Operations Manager 5.8 (SUSE Linux Enterprise 11)
vCenter Log Insight (SUSE Linux Enterprise 11)
vCloud Automation Center
VMware Postgres Database Appliance (SUSE Linux Enterprise 11)
vCenter Orchestrator Appliance (SUSE Linux Enterprise 11)
vSphere Management Assistant (vMA) (SUSE Linux Enterprise 11)
Does anyone know if these products are affected? If they are, does VMware have a patch in place to remediate the vulnerability?
Thanks for your help.
Tim

Any speculation around Bash "Shell shock" impact on VMware products?

According to VMware investigating bash command injection vulnerability aka Shell Shock (CVE-2014-6271, CVE-2014-7169) | VMware Securi…, VMware is investigating the impacts of the Bash security vulnerability on VMware products.
What do you think about the possible impact on ESXi hosts? Vulnerable to remote code execution or not?

Does anybody know if the vShield Manager 5.1.4.1912202 is affected by shellshock? Thanks!!
While not mentioning vShield Manager in particular, the KB article lists "vCloud Networking and Security 5.x (aka VMware Shield 5.x)" which the vShield Manager virtual appliance is a part of.
Since the vShield Manager virtual appliance runs a full GNU/Linux OS underneath, I'm 99% certain it has a bash and is thus affected as well, like all the other virtual appliances. In fact, I'm not aware of any VMware virtual appliance that don't have a bash shell (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong).
It seems like VMware is doing the proper thing and disabling parsing in bash altogether.
Probably requires a lot more QA testing, but mitigates future parser bugs that are most likely coming.
http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2014/09/29/43
That's quite interesting.
This raises the general issue of virtual appliances and patching once again. The GNU/Linux OS running in pretty much all appliances is just a customized version of another popular distribution (majorly SuSe in VMware's VAs), so in theory you could just update with the distributions default packages instead of having to wait for vendors to publish it's "certified" updates.
I completely agree that QA is important and it can be problematic for certain packages like java, webserver or database software and depending libraries. But updates to more "generic" applications like bash or openssl (heartbleed), which only fix a very certain code area, shouldn't cause any issues in the applications.
Given the severity of bugs like Shellshock and Heartbleed, there might be limited patience in some environments with waiting for vendors re-packing fixes that are released since some time.
That "updating" a virtual appliance sometimes means "deploy a new VA from scratch and migrate data" doesn't help in that regard either.

Solaris 8 (I know not 9): Equivalent "GHOST" or "Ignite" product?

Is there any product for Solaris 8 that is similar to the "Ghost" product for PCs OR for HP-UX's Ignite product. We use both of these products here at work but will be getting a Blade 100 system with Solaris 8 on it and I want to be able to image it COMPLETELY in the event it crashes since it will be the only Solaris system we have. I want the image to be an absolute exact duplicate of its entirety for that boot disk.
For example, we use HP's Ignite product to perform an entire mirror of the drive back to tape. So all you do in the event of like the boot disk going out is replace the drive, put the DAT tape in the tape drive, boot up off of that tape and the ENTIRE VG00 is restored. I mean EVERYTHING in VG00.
Anything like that for Solaris?
Thanks, please write.
Angie

There are a Flar Archive format, this format is similar to ignite or mksysb but you need a jumpstart server (like ignite server or NIM server), or when you are reinstalling from CD select the Flash install.
See in blue prints for jumpstart
and the man page of "flarcreate".

The affected releases listed for this advisory state "Known Affected Releases: (4) 4.2(8), 5.2(9), 6.1(5), 6.2(10)"
Our 7Ks are running 6.1(2), does this mean that any code in the 6.1(x) release below 6.1(5) is affected? Or is it just 6.1(5) specifically and none other running 6.1(x)?

Hi Rahul,
Thanks for reply. I am maintained in diff value maintained routing , Ex :First routing i have work center 'X' value maintained as a setup time in 15 Min's and operation time 10 Min's
second work center 'Y' I have maintained as set up time 10 Min's and operation time 30 Min's,
Now I want to change the work center in production order as a 'Y' so whatever value maintained in routing , it has to be changed automatically (10 min's and 30 Min's), but system will not change only old value only picked (15Min's AND 10 Min's).
Now I think you get to know what the client requirement, kindly do the need full.

SRM 4.0- How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC

The radio button Service should not be visible.
Also for search help (e.g. search for internal products) where a search should only be possible for product type 01 (goods). The system should not display the product type and internally always search for goods only.
How to set the default values for product type (01) only for SC
We needs to use Search help BBPH_PRODUCT which having parameter PRODUCT_TYPE
Here we can set defalut value 01 but it is not correct one since same search help is using several places.
We need to limit the search help results only for SC.
Kindly help out me ASAP.

The easiest way to set defautl values is to edit the batch class.
Goto the characteiristic and go to update values.
In here you probably have something like 0 - 100 as a spec range.
On the next line enter the default value within this range. At the end of the line, click in the box in the column labelled "D". This indicates the defautl value for the characteristic.
If you need to you can do this in the material classification view as well.
Just to be clear, these values will only show up in the batch record. You can not have defautl values in resutls recording screens.

Limit the number of open production order

Dear PP experts,
I am working on discrete scenario where client want to limit the number of open production order per work center. The more elaboration is like, for one work center the only specific number of production should remain open (e.g. 5 production order in assembly shop) when user is trying to open 6th production order system should restrict that.
Does any standard functionality available in system or needs development?
Regards,
Shekhar

Dear,
You can do it with avilability check for materail and capacity.
In OPJK do the for your production order type as no release if materail and capacity i missing.
Hope clear to you.

How to delete the queries in BW Production which are no longer existing.

Hi,
How to delete the queries in BW production which are no longer existing in DEV.
1. I tried Using RSZDELETE in Production it is not getting deleted and the below message given.
Query object 4A7V83T3RB4ABIOKSDJT2HWDL is blocked. Deletion has been cancelled.
2. I tried creating another query in dev with the same technical name and send a transport with deletion
it is not working.
Please advise me on this for any function module or any other method.
Thanks
Surya

Hi,
If you transported the query from DEV and now you want to delete it, you should open a BEx request (Dev Class under which it was originally transported -- or-- Standard - type) in DEV delete the query and move the transport to Production.
As far as your error is concerned, usually when you can delete a query using the delete option in query designer itself,
Business Explorer> query-> delete objects , when you press execute the system offers you a list of dependent objects on the query(workbook,views), in case the sysytem is unable to delete them i.e.they being used as a input query for a characteristic variable (replacement path),then system throws this error.You can delete these all depndents under there prescribed roles , fav s & then proceed.
Hope this will be expedite.
Thax & regards.

There is already a transaction for the systems of this product version(MOPZ)

Hello All,
I am trying to configure maintenance optimizer in Solution Manager 7.0

SM59 connection for SAP-OSS is OK.
S-User is assigned to a User.
Created a solution using TA code solution_manager.
Defined the product version for the solution created in the TA code
solution_manager.
When creating a Maintenance Optimizer transaction, I select the
product version and its logical component in the Plan Maintenance
(Phase) and click on Continue to go to Select Files Phase, I get below
warning:

Hello Ragu,
Thanks for your response.
As of now, we do not have ChaRM in place. Secondly, we use a single customer number.
I would like to let you know that in our landscape we have two CRM server, one ECC sever, one SOLMAN7.0 server.
I tried to configure MOPZ for CRM, ECC, SOLMAN server to download the respective STACKS.
I was successful in configuring CRM and SOLMAN.
But when I tried to configure in ECC, it failed due to RFC erros.
So I deleted the transaction for the ECC system and deleted the system itself in Solution Manager.
Reconfigured the Systems in "SMSY", RFC connections are correctly defined to configure MOPZ between SOLMAN7.0 and ECC6.0.
When I start configuring the MOPZ, I cannot get pass the first phase and this is when I get an error: There is already a transaction for the systems of this product version.
Please let me know if you need further information.
Regards,
Satish.

Problem to get the availability of a product using BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE

Hi folks,
I am trying to use BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE to get the availability of a product but the BAPI does not send me the expected result :
I am trying to get the availability of a "to be discontinued" product. The available quantity of this product is 592 unit.
1/ Here is what I have in VA01 when I order a quantity of 1000 unit : [VA01|http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/4982/va012.jpg]
--> only 592 units available : OK !
2/ Here is what I have with BAPI_MATERIAL_AVAILABILITY when I order a quantity of 1000 unit : [Table WMDVEX|http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/9793/wmdvex2.jpg]
--> only 592 units available : OK !
3/ Here is what I have with BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE when I order a quantity of 1000 unit : [TableORDER_SCHEDULE_EX|http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/830/orderscheduleex2.jpg]
--> Nothing available : not OK !
For information to run BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE I am filling ORDER_HEADER_IN, ORDER_PARTNERS and ORDER_ITEMS_IN.
Thanks in advance for your help.

@Brad : If I fill ORDER_SCHEDULE_IN-REQ_QTY in place of ORDER_ITEMS_IN-REQ_QTY I receive an error : E-06070-Enter a quantity (I suppose ORDER_ITEMS_IN-REQ_QTY is mandatory). Which field do you use to specify the schedule quantity ?
For information here are the information I am using to run BAPI_SALESORDER_SIMULATE :

How to add the long text in Production order through FM

Hi,
Iam having custom program which has BAPI (BAPI_PRODORD_CREATE) inside it and this program is used to create Production orders with the details of Sales order Number,Line item,Plant,Order type,Quantity and Start date. This program is scheduled in Background.
Now client wants to add the Long text (seperate TAB in production order and they want to update the VC details of Sales order in the Long text area).
One option is after creation of Production order, through BDC(calling CO02 and update the long text) we can update the long text and client doesn't want this option.
Another option is after creation of Production order, using Function module SAVE_TEXT, Update the Long text in Production Order and this is not working in Production order (already my ABAP consultant checked it ).
If any one of you came across this requirement, pl share with me how you addressed it.
Regards
A.Sureshbabu

Hi,
The method is quite simple, i presume you're quite well versed with doing recording, so the key thing to keep in mind is how to prepare the input file.
At my end i had about 5 lines of data which needed to be uploaded, hence i had a tab-delimited file with the order nos. in the first column & the five lines of text in five different columns (Refer format below)
Order No.
Line - 1
Line - 2
Line - 3
Line - 4
Line - 5
12345
txt - 1
txt - 2
txt - 3
txt - 4
txt - 5
67890
txt - a
txt - b
txt - c
txt - d
txt - e
Now provide this input file for your lsmw or bdc program & it will work. You can work with your abaper if you're not so comfortable with LSMW or BDC programming he / she should be able to easily make it work for you.

Vivek

How to change the status of a production order

Dear All,
May i know how to change the status of a production order.I want to de-active the status like OPGN (Operation generated).This status is updated as there was no routing assigned to that particular production order during its creation
Thanks and Regards,
Varun Siddharth

Dear,
When you create a production order, an operation created by the system is generated automatically if no routing is used for the creation. As a result the order header receives the status HOGAN; the operation created automatically also has this status.
If you delete the operation created automatically and then do not have the status HOGAN.
To avoid this maintain the Routing for the material or delete the setting of default operation from OPJG.
