Trying to understand tnfdump log

Hi,
I am tracing a pthread and socket program to see where the bottleneck is as it is slow. However I am not sure which value to use for the tracing of the program. This is my tnfdump log
Here should I be using the Elapsed(ms) or Delta(ms). Is the elapsed ms the difference between 1 probe to the next probe or is it from the time of execution of the thread. And what is the use of delta ms in tnfprobe. I have looked at the man page and can't figure out which exactly to use but seem to think that I must actually use the elapsed ms value.
probe      tnf_name: "CreateDirectoryListLock" tnf_string: "keys dirLock;file server.cpp;line 85;lock probe"
probe      tnf_name: "CreateDirectoryListUnLock" tnf_string: "keys dirUnLock;file server.cpp;line 98;lock probe"
    Elapsed (ms)       Delta (ms)   PID LWPID    TID     CPU Probe Name                Data / Description . . .

Elasped is total time since the trace start.
Delta is time since previous probe.
If you do the math you should see that adding all the deltas to a particular point is the same as the elapsed at that point.

I am trying to understand my Console System Log Queries, but not having much luck!!

I am trying to understand my MB late 2011, much better than I do, whilst looking through my console messages, I realised I don't have a clue as too whats what, I seem to be getting a lot of system errors - Is this normal?
Why are Mac Books soooo complicated - !
I would copy and paste my system messages - but once again I am 2 thick - don't know which bits - if any would need editing!
Any advise would be a great help.
Thankyou in advance.

You would use the Input button on your remote to set the Input to RGB PC and you'll also need audio cables to the TV because the Mini-DVI does not carry audio using a 3.5mm stereo headphone jack to RCA sound plug. You attach it from the headphone jack of your MacBook to the appropriate input plug on your TV.
When you first hook it up it will probably have the display set in Extended Desktop mode. The Menu Bar and Dock will be on the MacBook display and your background screen on the TV but you can move the cursor onto the TV screen.
In System Preferences>Display on the MacBook screen there should be an Arrangement tab when you have the MacBook hooked up to the TV and both screens working. When you click the Arrangement tab do you see two monitors side by side? One of them will have a Menu Bar at the top. Just click on the Menu Bar and drag it to the second monitor. That will make the second monitor your main screen. You can now use your MacBook in Clamshell Mode with a wired or Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3131 When you disconnect from the TV your Menu Bar will automatically change back to the MacBook.
Or if you want to work on the MacBook screen while showing it on a TV you can check the Mirror Display box on the lower left hand side of the Arrangement tab under the two monitors box.

Trying to understand daemon message

Hi ,
trying to understand message see in the logging log -
DAEMON-3-SYSTEM_MSG: netsnmp_check_tcp_session_for_user : Cache found for user (username).
Thanks

You can rely on the JMS provider to take care of it's own failures. However, please note that the JMS provider can fail right after you have successfully done your work in onMessage - but before the message acknowledgement happens. This means that in case of failure, you may get the last consumed message again.
Also note that different JMS providers will handle RuntimeException's raised from onMessage differently, so check your vendor's documentation. After a couple of re-tries, your JMS provider might for instance deem that the receiver/subscriber has a problem consuming said message and move the message into an error queue.

Issue understanding PFRO Log

Hey Everyone,
I have, what I hope to be a pretty simple question. Here we go.
I was looking at the PFRO Logs as I am trying to understand different system level things, for a class I am taking on System Administration (I am taking a deeper dive). When I came across the PFRO logs, I found something similar to the following:
7/22/2011 10:43:23 - PFRO Error: \??\C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Local\Temp\download_file_name.exe, |delete operation|, 0xc000003a
7/22/2011 10:43:23 - 1 Successful PFRO operations
Does this mean that the system was deleting the file "download_file_name.exe" and it was successful. As this is what it appears to be. I am not sure, and hoping someone can clarify as the "PFRO Error" is throwing me off.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Some products and updates use a registry key to store information about pending file rename operations (PFRO). This feature is used when files that have to be updated that are locked or that are being used, the installer writes the files to a temp location
and renames them after a restart.
The delete operation in your log means that the file (the pending file) is successfully deleted after a restart.

Trying to understand File Sharing

My daughter and I want to share files between her MBP and my iMac. We're on the same network in our home. Is there a way to do this? I thought it was in system preferences un der sharing and select file sharing. But it seems that is for different accounts (users) on the same machine to share files. So how can I share between two macs?

I've tried to understand this whole concept. Official Apple docs and manuals (as well as online tutorials -- they just copy&paste Apple docs) were completely useless. It took me an hour to finally figure it out on my own.
Here's what you do:
1. Go to System Preferences and click on Users & Groups;
2. Select the Guest User.
You might need to click on the lock icon at the bottom and enter admin password to make it selectable;
3. Check the "Allow guests to connect to shared folders". Do not touch the first checkbox that says "Allow guests to log in to this computer" because it has nothing to do with network access;
4. Head back to the System Preferences and click on Sharing.
5. Enable File Sharing by clicking on the checkbox left of it.
6. By default, there's gonna be only one folder enabled for sharing — your Public folder. Select that folder and change the access rights for Everyone to whichever you need (Read Only, Read & Write or Write Only). If you need to share additional folders, just drag-n-drop them to the Shared Folders list and change the rights the same way.
Repeat those steps on all your Macs if needed.
That's it. We've just enabled folder sharing over local network without creating any users.
If you need to further specify which folders get access over network

Hello, World - trying to understand the steps

Hello, Experts!
I am pretty new to Flash Development, so I am trying to understand how to implement the following steps using Flash environment
http://pdfdevjunkie.host.adobe.com/00_helloWorld.shtml
Step 1: Create the top level object. Use a "Module" rather than an "Application" and implement the "acrobat.collection.INavigator" interface. The INavigator interface enables the initial hand shake with the Acrobat ActionScript API. Its only member is the set host function, which your application implements. During the initialize cycle, the Acrobat ActionScript API invokes your set host function. Your set host function then initializes itself, can add event listeners, and performs other setup tasks.Your code might look something like this.
<mx:Module xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" implements="acrobat.collection.INavigator" height="100%" width="100%" horizontalScrollPolicy="off" verticalScrollPolicy="off" >
Step 2: Create your user interface elements. In this example, I'm using a "DataGrid" which is overkill for a simple list but I'm going to expand on this example in the future. Also notice that I'm using "fileName" in the dataField. The "fileName" is a property of an item in the PDF Portfolio "items" collection. Later when we set the dataProvider of the DataGrid, the grid will fill with the fileNames of the files in the Portfolio.
<mx:DataGrid id="itemList" initialize="onInitialize()" width="350" rowCount="12"> <mx:columns> <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="fileName" headerText="Name"/> </mx:columns> </mx:DataGrid>
Step 3: Respond to the "initialize" event during the creation of your interface components. This is important because there is no coordination of the Flash Player's initialization of your UI components and the set host(), so these two important milestone events in your Navigator's startup phase could occur in either order. The gist of a good way to handler this race condition is to have both your INavigator.set host() implementation and your initialize() or creationComplete() handler both funnel into a common function that starts interacting with the collection only after you have a non-null host and an initialized UI. You'll see in the code samples below and in step 4, both events funnel into the "startEverything()" function. I'll duscuss that function in the 5th step.
               private function onInitialize():void { _listInitialized = true; startEverything(); }

Trying to understand Android OS updates delays

This is not another hate mail, it´s more about trying to understand the facts and motives regarding the OS updates (or lack of).
Hopefully this material will arrive at someone from Sony with enough power to do something about it.
Ever since I can remember, Sony has been THE brand for electronics. I can´t remember a TV or VCR in my house that it wasn´t Sony, and they lasted for LOTS of years.
When a couple years ago I finally had the money (and the need) for a Smartphone, i chose the X10 Mini, which is a great little phone from a great brand, but it´s stuck at Android 2.1... which makes it a crippled android nowadays...
It really bothered me the lack of OS updates, so I chose to buy a Galaxy Nexus, but it´s really expensive in my country. So my second option was a Galaxy Ace 2, but they haven´t arrived to my country yet, so I went with my third option: Xperia Sola, knowing beforehand that it´s a great phone, a great brand, but I might get slow OS updates.
I bought it about 10 days ago when I saw they were starting to roll out the updates.
10 days later I still don´t have my update. And not only that, but I don´t see much light at the end of the tunnel...
I found a thread with the SI numbers that were updated, and there were a bunch on Oct 1, another bunch on Oct 4, and one code on Oct 8, and no other update since...
I also read that those who did get the update, were having bugs with the OS, and also found threads from other Xperia models, whose updates began rolling 3 months ago, and there is still people who hasn´t gotten the update...
As a customer, and a owner/CEO of a small company, I have a really hard time understanding how a HUGE company like Sony can be making such mistakes...
I have been thinking objective reasons, and I can only think of one. I know it´s a wild guess, but I´m starting to think that our salvation might be the very thing that means our condemnation: CYANOGENMOD!!!
Think about it: Why would Sony spend more money hiring twice as much programmers, when they can make only one update per phone, and sit down and see how CM releases begin to appear, for all tastes and needs. And... IT´s FREE!!!
Also, if there is a software related problem (way more likely than a hardware problem), then the CM developers take the fall, instead of Sony. And I´m beginning to see custom OS installers that are more user friendly, so it might be something that they take in accout when neglecting OS updates.
If that´s the line Sony is following, it´s a very risky move and it won´t work. Sony Mobile will crash and burn, but it´s still a better business plan that "let´s get lazy and make ULTRA slow updates so we don´t spend a lot of money programming".
If you can´t afford more programmers, stop including so much bells and whistles and make your OS near vanilla. Include a couple of Xperia menus, a custom theme and voila!
The main reason I wanted the Galaxy Nexus is Vanilla OS, which means inmediate OS updates. Sony on the other hand, takes a year or two to release it after its launch. If they release it at all...
Another though... why not stop making that many different phones! Really! There are like 5 Xperia models i can´t tell one from the other... even with specs side by side!
You are trying to make too many phones and you are failing with all of them! (Software and software updates are also part of the phone, one of the most importants...)
I know hiring programmers is expensive, but you are sacrificing one of the most expensive values for a company EVER: Customer credibility! Which as you know better than me, takes years to create.
If Apple had problems with carriers and code aprooving and stuff, they might get away with it, becouse they alone have all the devices. If iOS 6 is delayed a few months, it´s delayed for everyone, and besides Apple fanboys rarely complain about Mac products, but Android is a more independent and educated market.
I´m not saying that Apple users are ignorant, not at all, but I´m pretty sure most iPhone owners don´t even know what processor or how much RAM their phone has. They just "swallow" the Apple Way of Life. (it´s a good phone becouse Apple says so).
The Android user on the other side, because of the fragmentation of the market, has many brands and models to choose from. An Android user about to buy a new phone will most likely go online looking for different models, specs, reviews in webs and forums...etc.
You can´t say "I don´t know how HTC and other companies get their updates so soon, but we take a lot more becouse Google and the Operators must aproove the code.", because there are many other brands that have exactly the same difficulties or more, since they are smaller, and we can SEE online that they are indeed delivering solid and relativly fast updates.
Did we miss something? Does HTC use Witchcraft to get their code aprooved?
My underlying point is this: You are getting lazy... VERY lazy with software programming for your phones, and WE KNOW IT!
It´s not the "difficulties" you claim, becouse every brand has those difficulties.
This isn´t 1999 you know. We are in the information age. If you lie to us and tell us that your phones have the latest OS, I can go online and see that you don´t (Hello!!!). If I see that the company lies to it´s customers, I will stop buying their products. If I´m so dissapointed with how Sony handles OS updates and their customers queries about it, then I want for the first time ever to sell my Cell Phone becouse I´m not happy with it, or the brand behind it.
We also live in the "Here and now" age. You can´t expect your customers to read about new Android releases on news and blogs, and wait YEARS with arms crossed waiting for their update... The world doesn´t work like that. Not anymore at least...
It´s not a matter of how many recources you have, it´s about how you use and balance them. GIVE MORE IMPORTANCE TO SOFTWARE UPDATES! IT´S WAY MORE IMPORTANT THAT YOU THINK! LISTEN TO YOUR CUSTOMERS!!!
You guys are Sony are smart and design great products, but you are not GOD! You are not our wife, no one has sworn alliagence to you.
If you stop giving us good products and start lying to us, we hate you and stop giving you our money. Simple as that.
My sola is beatiful, I love the design, the screen, the hardware... but it hasn´t been updated yet to 4.0, not to mention 4.1, which REALLY is the latest version... so stop advertising that your phones have the latest Android OS, unless you want angry customers switching to other companies, which you are getting.
I also read some stories that Androind 4.0 was announced for the Xperia PLAY, and then it was called off... Do you have any idea how pissed I would be and ripped off I would be if I bought my phone based in that information and then you say it won´t be available?
Well, actually right now my possition is worse, since you SAY you will update my phone, but you don´t say when, and I read online about people still not getting their updates months after the rollout started, so I´m in the limbo right now...
As a company, one of the worse things you can do is calling your customers stupid, and when I see the answers you give in this forum, then I feel insulted. I feel like they are talking to an idiot or ignorant person with the so called "diplomatic" answers, which are basicly empty excuses for not doing your job right.
You gave us the frikking CDs, DVDs and Blu-Rays!!! Don´t tell us you can´t tweak an already built OS in a year!
I really hope you change their OS update policies really soon, before you lose the already small cellphone market share you have, or at least change your P.R. and C.M. policies towards a more open one.
We all are humans and make mistakes, but we customers really appreciate honesty and truth.
Have an open conversation with your customers! Don´t lie about your shortcomings! Accept then and ask the community to help you solve them, ask them what they biggest problems are, what features are most important to them, how often do they expect updates... LISTEN TO THEM!!
"Succes is a meneace. It tricks smart people into thinking they can´t lose."
Ps: Nothing personal with the mods from this forum, I´m not killing the messenger, I know that you can ONLY give the info you are allowed to give, and even if you wanted, you probably don´t know the answers yourself, since you work in the Communications department, not Developement or anything technical, and if you can't give any given info, then they probably won´t give it to you either... My message is to the company as a whole. I just hope you will be a good messenger and give this to whoever needs to read it.

My bad, it´s closer to 40 the number of phones released hehe
I know it´s all about money, and I know Sony is obligated to neglect users who haven´t given them money after an x ammount of time. However, it´s not a matter of making the phones obsolete earlier, so the users want to buy a new phone faster and therefore getting more money.
A person will buy a new phone when he/she has the money to do so and wants to do so.
It´s not a matter of WHEN. It´s a matter of WHAT.
The question is not "When will that user buy a new phone?", but rather "When that user buys a new phone, whenever that is, what phone will it be?"
I have a love/hate relationship with Apple. I would never use a iPhone. I would love having any Mac, if someone gives it to me, but I would never spend my harn earned dollars on such an overpriced piece of hardware over general principals.
However, i do recognice that Steve Jobs was a business genius. Weather you like or love his ideas and methods, he turned a garage project into the biggest company in the world, with a market value higher than Exxon with 1/3 of it´s assets.
Apple is a money making machine, and that is where the "hate" part of my relationship comes from.
However, it surprised me a lot to see that they released iOS 6 for the iPhone 3GS, released in 2008!
That get´s you thinking, that inside all that "SELL NOW" culture Apple is, they also support their older devices that people bought years ago but can't buy a new phone now. However, when they can do it, it will surely be another iPhone. Because they FEEL that the company listens and cares for them.
Also if you jump from iOS 6 on the 3 GS to a brand new iPhone 5, the transition will be virtually non-existant, except for Siri and a couple of features.
However jumping from Android 1.5 or 2.1 to Jelly Bean, might not be so easy on some users, making them more likely to give iPhone a shot.
Since they have to adapt to another phone anyway, they might as well try the apple...
And for old users, it gives people a sense of continuity and care about the user. Otherwise we feel like being kicked out of a restaurant right after we payed the bill.

Trying to understand OIM - Please help

Hello All,
I am pretty new to OIM, just trying to understand how OIM works. For the past 4 years I was in Sun IdM and planning to switch over to OIM.
I read some documentation, I think OIM will perform basic provisioning and it contains out of box connectors to do basic provisoning. I have some questions can anybody please help
- Sun IdM uses Express language to develop custom workflows or forms, in OIM to develop workflows which language did you use, is it Java or any other language?
- If I want to provision users on AS/400, HP Open VMS or AIX systems, how can I do that I don't see any out of box connectors for these resources, so in order to integrate these resources do we need to write our own custom connectors?
- If the out of box connector does not support a specific function on a resource what are the options do we have? for example if the AD connector does not support to delete the exchange mailbox, how your going to perform this in OIM? Do we need to write a Java code for this?
- How much Java coding is necessary in OIM?
- Is OIM supports role based provisioning?
Please share any information.
Thanks in advance.

Sun IdM uses Express language to develop custom workflows or forms, in OIM to develop workflows which language did you use, is it Java or any other language?
- JAVA
If I want to provision users on AS/400, HP Open VMS or AIX systems, how can I do that I don't see any out of box connectors for these resources, so in order to integrate these resources do we need to write our own custom connectors?
- If OOTB connectors are not available then you'll have build you own connector as per Target Resource.
If the out of box connector does not support a specific function on a resource what are the options do we have?
- You'll have customize their connector as per your requirements or write your own
How much Java coding is necessary in OIM?
- We can't calculate how much java. It's totally depends on requirements how much code you'll ahve to write. But everything will be done using Java only.
- Is OIM supports role based provisioning?
Here Group represent Role. At a small scale it supports. But for large scale you'll have to use Oracle Role Manager as you do in Sun Role Manager.

Trying to understand, being prompted the file compression rules on saving, or not

Hello,
I'm trying to understand something, could I ask for your help, please ?
After working on a jpg file, when I want to save it, still as jpg, with my Photoshop CS5,
- sometimes photoshop will just save the picture, and it's done
- sometimes photoshop will show me the compression dialog, "JPEG Options", in which I can choose the compression ratio, the format options (baseline, baseline optimized, progressive), and have an estimation of the total file size
While not being prompted any dialog is simpler, and I'll then simply assume Photoshop decides to retain the current image's compression and format rules, I must say I like to be in control, and I'd like to know under what form the file is being saved without having to resort to the much more complex "Save For Web" menu.
Please, would you know WHAT "triggers" the appearance of the JPEG Options when we close/save a jpeg file, in photoshop ? What makes this menu not to appear, what makes it appear ?
If there are trivial file operations/changes/filters that necessarily trigger its appearance when we want to save, something like that ? I've tried a variety of these, but I still can't figure it out, sometimes it shows in the end, and sometimes it doesn't.
Thank you very much if you can help me
Kind regards,
Oliver

@ c.pfaffenbichler
These are images from various sources, not just one.
I'm deliberately excluding Save For Web, this completely re-processes everything.
My purpose, precisely, is to know when photoshop takes the decision to retain the image's "rules", and when photoshop decides to pose us the question, how do we want it saved.
Simply taking a jpeg image, doing stuff on it, and hitting control-w to close the window, and seeing if it will be an
- «OK, sure, do you want to save ? You clicked OK to confirm you wanted the changes saved ? Good, now it's closed» or a
- «please sir, how would you like your image saved, tell me the compression ratio and the format options, thank you»

UTL_HTTP.end_of_body Exception Error. Trying to Understand the Reason Why?

I have the following PLSQL Function that returns a End_of_body Error. This started when we migrated from 10g to 11g. It is simple enough to capture so the error does not stop the Function Flow, but the error causes the OCI driver in OBIEE to error, which prevents the use of OBIEE IBOT to execute. Trying to understand why this error is occurring..not sure if we have a permissions issue on the UTL_HTTP Package or what?
Anyone seen this problem in 11g? Suggests on resolving would be great. Thanks.

[SOLVED] Trying to understand the "size on disk" concept

Hi all,
I was trying to understand the difference between "size" and "size on disk".
A google search gave plenty of results and I thought I got a clear idea about
it.. All data is stored in small chunks of a fixed size depending on the
filesystem and the last chunk is going to have some wasted space which
will *have* to be allocated.. Thus the extra space on disk.
However I'm still confused.. When I look at my home folder, the size on disk
is more than 320 GB, where as my partition is actually less than 80 GB, so
I guess I'm missing something.. Could somebody explain to me what does
320 GB of 'size on disk' means?
Thanks a lot in advance..

Hi all,
Thank you for your replies.. My file manager is indeed pcman fm and
indeed it seems to be an issue.. In b4data's link the last post reads:
B-Con wrote:
FWIW, I found the problem. (This bug is still persistent in v0.9.9.)
My (new) PCManFM bug report is here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.ph … tid=801864
I submitted a potential patch here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=de … tid=801866
Bottom line is that the file's block size and block count data from the file's inode wasn't being interpreted and used properly. The bug is in PCManFM, not any dependent libraries. Details are in the bug report.
Since PCManFM is highly used by the Arch community, I figured I should post an update here so that there's some record of it in our community. Hopefully this gets addressed by the developer(s) relatively soon. :-)
I guess that pretty much explains things.. And I think I did understand the 'size on disk' concept
anyway
Thanks again!

Trying to understand the sound system

Here's my problem. My mic didn't work (neither the front mic nor the line-in in the rear), so after some research and trial and error I found that if I do
modprobe soundcore
my mic works on both the jacks
But here's where my confusion lies. This is the output of lsmod |grep snd before probing explicitly for soundcore
[inxs ~ ]$ lsmod |grep snd
snd_hda_codec_analog 78696 1
snd_hda_intel 22122 1
snd_hda_codec 77927 2 snd_hda_codec_analog,snd_hda_intel
snd_hwdep 6325 1 snd_hda_codec
snd_pcm_oss 38818 0
snd_pcm 73856 3 snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_pcm_oss
snd_timer 19416 1 snd_pcm
snd_page_alloc 7121 2 snd_hda_intel,snd_pcm
snd_mixer_oss 15275 2 snd_pcm_oss
snd 57786 8 snd_hda_codec_analog,snd_hda_intel,snd_hda_codec,snd_hwdep,snd_pcm_oss,snd_pcm,snd_timer,snd_mixer_oss
soundcore 6146 2 snd
[inxs ~ ]$
So as you can see, soundcore's already loaded, so why do I have to explicitly load it again to get the mic to work?
Once I add soundcore to my MODULES array and reboot, the lsmod output is also the same as above.
So my question is -- what does the explicit loading of soundcore do, that is not done by auto-loading of that module?

Oh... since your topic is Trying to understand the sound system, that puts you (and me) inside the whole world's population... chuckle. But I thought I'd pass along a document written by probably "The" main ALSA developer that I totally stumbled across just 3 days ago.
Go here:
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/docs/
and download the flavor of your choice of the "HD-Audio" document, or simply view it online. It documents the deepest dive into the current ALSA snd_hda_* layers and issues that I've found to date (but still leaves me wanting).
Why that document isn't plastered across the interwebs is beyond me. I only get 11 hits when I search for it... such are the secrets of the ALSA world I guess.

Trying to understand the MODEL clause

Hi All,
I'm finally biting the bullet and learning how to use the model clause, but I'm having a bit of trouble.
The following example data comes from a book "Advanced CQL Functions in Oracle 10g".
with sales1 as (select 'blueberries' product
                      ,'pensacola' location
                      ,9000 amount
                      ,2001 year
                  from dual
                union all
                select 'cotton', 'pensacola',16000,2001 from dual
                union all
                select 'lumber','pensacola',3500,2001 from dual
                union all
                select 'cotton','mobile',24000,2001 from dual
                union all
                select 'lumber', 'mobile',2800,2001 from dual
                union all
                select 'plastic','mobile',32000,2001 from dual
                union all
                select 'blueberries','pensacola',9000,2002 from dual
                union all
                select 'cotton', 'pensacola',16000,2002 from dual
                union all
                select 'lumber','pensacola',3500,2002 from dual
                union all
                select 'cotton','mobile',24000,2002 from dual
                union all
                select 'lumber', 'mobile',2800,2002 from dual
                union all
                select 'plastic','mobile',32000,2002 from dual
                union all
                select 'blueberries','pensacola',9000,2003 from dual
                union all
                select 'cotton', 'pensacola',16000,2003 from dual
                union all
                select 'lumber','pensacola',3500,2003 from dual
                union all
                select 'cotton','mobile',24000,2003 from dual
                union all
                select 'lumber', 'mobile',2800,2003 from dual
                union all
                select 'plastic','mobile',32000,2003 from dual
select location, product, year, s
from sales1
model
--return updated rows
partition by (product)
dimension by (location,year)
measures (amount s) ignore nav
(s['pensacola',2003] = sum(s)['pensacola',cv() > cv()-1])I would have expected the measures clause to return the sum of all amounts for pensacola where the year > 2003 - 1 = 2002. which would make the total for [blueberries,2003] = 1800, but instead it comes out as 27000, apparently summing all values for blueberries for that partition.... equivalent to sum(s)['pensacola',ANY].
how would I go about making s['pensacola',2003] = the sum of itself plus the previous row?
I realise I can do
s['pensacola',cv()]+s['pensacola',cv()-1]but I'm really trying to understand why what I have doesn't appear to work the way I expect.

Because
(s['pensacola',2003] = sum(s)['pensacola',cv() > cv()-1])
means
(s['pensacola',2003] = sum(s)['pensacola',cv(year) > cv(year)-1])
means
(s['pensacola',2003] = sum(s)['pensacola',2003 > 2003-1])
means
(s['pensacola',2003] = sum(s)['pensacola',2003 > 2002])
means
(s['pensacola',2003] = sum(s)['pensacola',year is any])
s['pensacola',cv()]+s['pensacola',cv()-1]
means
sum(s)['pensacola',year between cv()-1 and cv()]

Trying to Understand the PostSyncCleanup parameter

I've got a problem with running my application on the Australian version of Windows. We have a "test" application built around SQL Server Compact Merge Replication Library (thanks ErikEJ) and that works but our application doesn't.
One of the main differences with our application code is that we do not set the PostSyncCleanup value to anything and the library sets it to 2 per this link:
http blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlblog/archive/2009/04/15/sql-compact-performance-postsynccleanup-to-turn-off-updatestatistics-during-initial-download-of-sql-compact-replication.aspx (put the :// back to get the link)
I'm trying to understand the impact of making that our "production" configuration since we haven't been using it. The description looks harmless enough but I don't really understand what statistics I'm turning off and what the impact
would be and what even the default setting is. Anything that could enlighten me would be appreciated along with a guess as to why that might be causing a problem on the Australian version of Windows would be appreciated.

So we've been running with the default value (0) and have not really had any "problems". I haven't done any testing but I'm ok with faster, like everyone would be, but am also a bit risk averse so want to know what exactly I'm turning off.
I also saw this advice from Rob Tiffany:
Use the appropriate x64, x86 or ARM version of SQL Server Compact 3.5 SP2 to take advantage of the
PostSyncCleanup property of the SqlCeReplication object that can reduce the time it takes to perform an initial synchronization. Set the
PostSyncCleanup property equal to 3 where neither
UpdateStats nor CleanByRetention are performed.
Here: http robtiffany.com/microsoft-sql-server-compact-3-5-sp2-has-arrived/
So, is the best advice to use that parameter and set the value to 3 or 2
I don't really know what I'm losing to "not performing" UpdateStats or CleanByRetention and does making that change need I need to do something else on the server or client to "clear out" or "clean up" something that this is
doing.
