Two copies archive logs with only one defined

Hi,
On a 11g database, I have only got flash_recovery_area defined. When switched into archive log mode, I have expected only one copy of archive logs produced in the defined USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST location, but there is another copy generated as well under $ORACLE_HOME/dbs directory. How to explain that? and how to DISABLE the second copy to be produced?
Thanks for any help

This is the way 11g install sets up the archive destination intially after creating the database using DBA.
What you can do is to go to the Recovery Settings in Enterprise Manager. You would notice that Archive Log Destination number 1 is set to usr/oracle11g/R1/dbs/arch while number 10 is set to USE_DB_RECOVERY_FILE_DEST
Remove the entry for Number 1 (leave it blank). Apply the settings. This will force Oracle to only log to flash_recovery_area.

Can you create two completely separate iCalendars with only one iTunes account?

I'm trying to create a new calendar, but want it to be completely separate from the home ones we have. Is there a way to create a completely separate new iCalendar without having to have a new iTunes account?

If I'm understanding you correctly... I would say yes...
Under my same account I have a calendar for "Work", My "Family" and "Personal".
I share the Family one and the other two are only seem by me

How use two templantes with only one job ?

I have two templantes and want use with only one job.I use with input one xml data file !!
Is this possible?
Please Help!!
Thanks,
Bruno.

I probably missed this one earlier or felt that since it referenced an XML data file that I couldn't provide a definitive answer. I'm still not sure I can because we don't use XML for our data files, but use the "field nominated format". An expansion on Tammy's information: 1. use a multi-step job with each b task calling a different MDF. With this correction, it assumes that you either have access to set up the tasks/jobs yourself or can convince your Central administrator to do so. What happens is that TASKA is set up to reference FORMA and TASKB is set up to reference FORMB. Then a job is set up that causes both TASKA & TASKB to be ran. This will likely result in two different print files being sent to the printer. That may or may not be desirable, depending on whether your printer is set up to do something special between each print file (insert separator page, offset, whatever). Personally, I don't recommend this as it can quickly cause an unnecessary proliferation of tasks and jobs (we print 100's of differing form combinations with a single job definition). 2. I can't really address this as I didn't even know that a single form could cause another to be called. I would expect that unless the "base" form (say it is FORMA) is to always print with the secondary form (FORMB) it is restrictive and has the potential to cause a proliferation of FORMA files for the various combinations that are to be printed. Maybe it is possible to have logic to check the value of a data field to control what forms get called. 3. If you pass the XML file through a translation step and then through the transformation agent (maybe it can be done in a single step) this should work. It does add another step to the job as well as requiring learning to use the transformation agent. Depending on the combination of forms to be printed, you might need a different translation definition for each one, or at the very least have a data field that you can check the value of to determine what ^form commands to put in the output file. 4. My recommendation is based on assuming an XML data file has the same capabilities as a field nominated file. Within a field nominated file are various print agent commands, including references to data as well as which forms are to be printed (and a whole bunch of other commands). An XML file should have the same features - I just can't say what they might look like. If your current data file has no "form" reference but depends on the job/task definition you might have to stick with option 1. If it has a "form" reference, then you just need to insert additional references for additional forms. Then it is up to the source of your data (or a transformation agent step) to specify which forms are to be printed. For example, in field nominated format, the file might look like: ^job XYZ additional parameters ^form FORMA.MDF ^field FIELD1 data ^field FIELD2 data ^form FORMB.MDF ^field FIELD1 data ^field FIELD3 data or it might look like the way our files look: ^job XYZ additional parameters ^global FIELD1 data ^global FIELD2 data ^global FIELD3 data ^form FORMA.MDF ^form FORMB.MDF As you can see in the first example, there is a reference to the form followed by all fields that go on it followed by another form reference with the fields that go on it. This particular method, using all "^field" commands for defining the data requires that data duplicated between the forms be duplicated. (Or, the use of some ^global commands like the following.) In the second example, all data is defined first using the "^global" command followed by all of the form references. This allows for the data to be defined only once. If there is something unique regarding a particular form the field can be ^global at the beginning or it can be ^field b after the ^form reference (similar to the first example). As previously mentioned, the XML file should have the same capability but in XML notation, something like the following (forgive me as it has been years since I took the XML class and don't use it in my daily work so the actual format could be wrong, not to mention the actual labels): <job name=XYZ,option=aaaa,option=bbbbbbb> <form name=FORMA.MDF> <field name=FIELD1, value=xxxxxxxxxxx></field> <field name=FIELD2, value="xxxxxxxxxxxxx"></field> </form> <form name=FORMA.MDF> etcetera </job> or maybe: <job name=XYZ,option=aaaa,option=bbbbbbb> <global name=FIELD1,value=xxxxxxxxxxxx></global> <global name=FIELD2,value="xxxxxxxxxxxxx"></global> etcetera <form name=FORMA.MDF></form> <form name=FORMB.MDF></form> </job> or even (but I doubt it): <job name=XYZ,option=aaaa,option=bbbbbbb> <globals> name=FIELD1,value=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, name=FIELD2,value="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" </globals> <forms> name=FORMA.MDF, name=FORMB.MDF </forms> </job>

I want to make a video clip using two still pictures, placing side by side. I am able to make with only one at a time.

I want to make a video clip using two still pictures, placing side by side. I am able to make with only one at a time. Also, I am able to move the picture using Transform. But unsuccessfull in making with two stills in same clip. Thank you for reply.

If you want a Picture in Picture effect, stack one still on top of the other with a connect edit. Use Transform to scale and reposition the top image.

Issue with only one client - The client version 5.00.7958.1000 does not match the MP version 5.00.7711.0000. The client will not be installed.

Below issue is with only one client in that untrusted domain. So boundary is not the issue.
Env -
mydom.com has SCCM PRI site (MP, DP as well).
Client is in untrusted forest.
Please help.
Thanks

Why two primary that is 'coz geographically based server support and workstation. You can think it as a data center to data center split.
That doesn't make sense and aren't valid reasons for 2012 (not that you can necessarily change it now).
This line jumps out at me in the log file though: "An MP exists on this machine".
That looks like the system you are installing on previously had an MP on it. I would delete the ccm namespace in WMI, cleanup all reference to ccm and Configuratin Manager from the registry, and then try again.

How can I play different videos with only one MediaPlayer?

I want to play two videos with only one MediaPlayer:
private static MediaPlayerBuilder mpB;
private static Media mLogo;
private static Media mSaludo;
private static MediaPlayer mpLogo;
private static MediaView mvLogo;
private static Group gLogo;
public void start(final Stage stage) {
mLogo = MediaBuilder.create().source(myGetResource(VIDEOLOGO_PATH)).build();
mSaludo = MediaBuilder.create().source(myGetResource(VIDEOSALUDO_PATH)).build();
mpB = MediaPlayerBuilder.create();
mpLogo = mpB.media(mLogo).build();
mvLogo = MediaViewBuilder.create().mediaPlayer(mpLogo).build();
gLogo.getChildren().add(mvLogo);
sActual = new Scene(gPozos, WIDTH, HEIGHT, Color.BLACK);
stage.setScene(sActual);
stage.show();When I want to play mLogo:
sActual.setRoot(gLogo);
mpLogo.play();Then, when I want to play mSaludo I do this:
mpLogo = mpB.media(mSaludo).build();
sActual.setRoot(gLogo);
mpLogo.play();or this:
mpB.media(mSaludo).applyTo(mpLogo);
sActual.setRoot(gLogo);
mpLogo.play();or this:
mpB.media(mSaludo);
sActual.setRoot(gLogo);
mpLogo.play();But is impossible to change the Media. It doesn't work. Sometimes I play mLogo video and sometimes (depends on the code) the video mLogo doesn't start and I see an image of the first keyframe and nothing else. I have no exceptions, no errors, nothing.
I want to play mLogo and then mSaludo. How can I do this?
Thanks

Ok, I understand, if I have 100 videos I have to build 100 MediaPlayers but only one MediaView.
Here I post my code with only two videos, I included all the asynchronous errors.

Nodes with Only One Lower-Level Node = Hide

Hi everyone
Have anyone present this situation:
Iu2019ve a quey to report inventory aging. It has two hierarchies to show data. In Rows I have Major Markets and in Columns a date hierarchy to show aging Ex: from 0 to 8 months, 9+ and 13+. Of course here I have also value and volume.
Query reports all values for all major markets fine. When I filter one major market, letu2019s say France also brings detailed figures but when I add any drill down in rows all values goes to cero (0).
Te estrange is that if you swap drill down order with major markets or drill down by columns with the same characteristic figures come out again as usual.
I know this sounds like a SAP note but I have not been able to find it either.
Thanks a lot for your help, and of course points will be assignedu2026..
Ps. Important, this happen when option u201CNodes with Only One Lower-Level Node = Hideu201D (this is selected on purpose because there are some repeated nodes in major market hierarchy Ex. France u2013 France and if there is just one value under first node then means that only display of last one is necessary to avoid repeated values).

Solution we found is to remove flag "Do not display leaves for inner-nodes in the query", directly on the hierarchy.
Thanks

SQL Server 2012 Undetected Deadlock in a table with only one row

We have migrated our SQL 2000 Enterprise Database to SQL 2012 Enterprise few days ago.
This is our main database, so most of the applications access it.
The day after the migration, when users started to run tasks, the database access started to experiment a total failure.
That is, all processes in the SQL 2k12 database were in lock with each other. This is a commom case of deadlock, but the Database Engine was unable to detect it.
After some research, we found that the applications were trying to access a very simple table with only one row. This table has a number that is restarted every day and is used to number all the transactions made against the system. So, client
applications start a new transaction, get the current number, increment it by one and commit the transaction.
The only solution we found was to kill all user processes in SQL Server every time this situation occurs (no more than 5 minutes when all clients are accessing the database).
No client application was changed in this migration and this process was working very well for the last 10 years.
The problem is that SQL 2k12 is unable to handle this situation compared to SQL 2k.
It seems to occurs with other tables too, but as this is an "entry table" the problem occurs with it first.
I have searched internet and some suggest some workarounds like using table hints to completely lock the table at the begining of the transaction, but it can't be used to other tables.
Does anyone have heard this to be a problem with SQL 2k12? Is there any fixes to make SQL 2k12 as good as SQL 2k?

First off re: "Unfortunatelly, this can't be used in production environment as exclusive table lock would serialize the accesses to tables and there will be other tables that will suffer with this problem."
This is incorrect.
Using a table to generate sequence numbers like this is a bad idea exactly because the access must be serialized. Since you can't switch to a SEQUENCE object, which is the correct solution, the _entire goal_ of this exercise to find a way to properly
serialize access to this table. Using exclusive locking will not be necessary for all the tables; just for the single-row table used for generating sequence values with a cursor.
I converted the sample program to VB.NET:
Public Class Form1
Private mbCancel As Boolean = False

mbCancel = False
Do

Call MsgBox("The test was canceled")
End If
Exit Sub
End Sub
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
mbCancel = True
End Sub
End Class
And created the table
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ControlNumTest](
[UltData] [datetime] NOT NULL,
[UltNum] [int] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_CorreioNumTeste] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
[UltData] Asc
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = on, FILLFACTOR = 80) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
go insert into ControlNumTest values (cast(getdate()as date),1)
Then ran 3 copies of the program and generated the deadlock:

It's the S lock that comes from the cursor read that's the villian here. U locks are compatible with S locks, so one session gets a U lock and another gets an S lock. But then the session with an S needs a U, and the session with a U needs an
X. Deadlock.
I'm not sure what kind of locks were taken by this cursor code on SQL 2000, but on SQL 2012, this code is absolutely broken and should deadlock.
The right way to fix this code is to add (UPDLOCK,SERIALIZABLE) to the cursor
.Open("SELECT * FROM dbo.ControlNumTest with (updlock,serializable)")
So each session reads the table with a restrictive lock, and you don't mix S, U and X locks in this transaction. This resolves the deadlock, but requires a code change.
I tried several things that didn't require a code, which did not resolve the deadlock;
1) setting ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS=OFF ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS=OFF
2) SERIALIZABLE isolation level
3) Switching OleDB providers from SQLOLEDB to SQLNCLI11
Then I replaced the table with a view containing a lock hint:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ControlNumTest_t](
[UltData] [datetime] NOT NULL,
[UltNum] [int] NOT NULL,
CONSTRAINT [PK_CorreioNumTeste] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
[UltData] Asc
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = on, FILLFACTOR = 80) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY]
go
create view ControlNumTest as
select * from ControlNumTest_t with (tablockx)
Which, at least in my limited testing, resovlved the deadlock without any client code change.

Different Effective Date in One BOM with only ONE Change Number

Hi gurus
here is my complete question?
Is it possible to realize this function that Different Effective Date in One BOM for different BOM items with only ONE Change Number?
Thanks for your information/help in advance.

Dear Zhao,
Using One change number it's not possible to define a different valid from date for the BOM changes of a single material BOM.
In case if the same change number is used for making different material's BOM component,then a different valid from date for
each BOM can be defined,but at any given point not for each component/item level of the same BOM.
Check and revert back.

Counting (interneal timebase)events with only one counter

Hello,
i am using a PXI-6115 card. This card is external clocked with 8 MHz. But I want to measure only about every second. So I divided the external clock with the internal counter 0. This works fine.
Now my problem. Now I want to know the external clock rate. Is it possible to build a pulse period measurement with only one counter??
I thinking of counting internal timebase- pulses with counter 1 and to start and stop the counter 1 by the output of counter 0.
Is this possible and how??
Thanks for help, Ruediger

Yes, there's a way to measure pulse periods with a single counter. The trick is to perform a buffered period measurement and sum the periods. The size of the buffer will determine the quantization/roundoff error.
The source of this error is that you have no control over the initial phase relationship of your external clock and your internal timebase. There's a nominal ratio between the two frequencies, and you'd start by expecting ratio * (buffer size) total cycles counted.
However, your actual count must be an integer, so you'll get either the next-highest or next-lowest integer, but you can't predict or control which one.
Example: If you collect 1 period at 8 MHz using the internal 20 MHz timebase, you'll capture either 2 or 3 e
dges from your timebase, implying a measured frequency of either 10 MHz or 6.6667 MHz.
If you collect 1001 periods, you'll capture a total of 2502 or 2503 timebase edges, implying a measured frequency of either 8.0016 MHz or 7.9984 MHz.
Notes:
1. In many cases, you can set up for buffered event counting, using the internal 20 MHz clock as a source and your external 8 MHz as a gate.
The advantage is that the buffered values already represent cumulative time so you don't need to sum them.
A disadvantage would be that the internal 24-bit counter value will roll-over in less than 1 second at 20 MHz. I typically capture periods and then sum in software because I can convert to floating point between capture and sum if necessary to produce both high-resolution and long duration measurements.
2. You should typically ignore the very first value in the buffer and work only with the others. If you want to capture 1001 legitimate periods, size the buffer for at least 1002

Create multiple portal instances with only one database?

Can someone create multiple portal instances with only one database?
If so, how is this done, just by running the portal configuration wizard?
How are most people running with multiple developers working on portal? Do they share a portal instance, or create their own?
Thank you very much!
Phillip

i'm currently using 9ias rel 2(9.0.2) and i have install one infrastructure and two mid tier, hoping that this will create two portal, but it didn't. Can you please tell me how to do create two portal within one server.
thanks and regards;

Multiple events per date with only one photo each - Unwanted

I have the eyefi wireless sd card in my camera and it is setup to transmit my photos into iphoto automatically, which it does. However, the problem arises in that iphoto creates multiple events for the same date each containing only one photo. I would prefer that iphoto create individual events per date and have the multiples of that date's photos within. I thought I had the settings configured to do so as I have preferences set for autosplit events one per day but I still see events such as - July 3, 2008 - July 3, 2008 - July 3, 2008 - each with only one photo inside.
I am wondering if it is something in iphoto's settings or the way in which eyefi transmits the photos into iphoto.
Any thoughts?

I do not have a WiFi connection to my camera so can not test but am just guessing
I can think of two possibilities
- 1 - if you are taking the photos with the WiFi connected then each time you snap a photo it may be being sent which would be looked at as a new import and therefore create a new event - to stop this I believe you would have to not have a full time WiFi connection to your camera or somehow set the camera to send batched - not each one - iPhoto will take each batch into and follow the rules for making events for that batch even if you camera is sending many batches of One photo
- 2 - You have the preference for making batches set to one every two hours and there is a long time between photos - I'm guessing that #1 is more likely

Is point in custom object with only one control handle possible?

I notice with a rounded rectangle if you make it editable and click on any of the points, they all seem to have only one "control handle". Normally there are always two. Is there really only one control handle on those points, or does it just look that way? Assuming there is indeed only one control handle, how can I do that too?

Chris Miner wrote:

Hi Chris,
Yes, there really is only one control handle for these points. And a look at the 'ordinary' rectangle shows that the control points at its vertices have zero control handles.
The rectangles appear to be set to retain the property of the rounded corner attaching to a line segment (for the rounded rectangle) or the vertex being formed by the intersection of two lines (for the 'ordinary' rectangle).
"Normal" control points (your term) treat the point at which they are inserted as a point on a curve, even it that curve has infinite radius (and appears as a line segment), and provide for revision of the curve on both sides of the control.
If you insert one of these (option-click) anywhere on the shape, it will appear as an unfilled red circle, and will have two control handles.
Assuming there is indeed only one control handle, how can I do that too?
For a start, you could explain what you mean by "do that too."

Barry

Importing m2t into iMovie with only one conversion

Ok, so m2t files have been beaten to death in these forums, but I'm still puzzled. Here's my situation. I have a Canon HV20 and only replay the tape once to avoid wear and save time (really?). So I capture to m2ts. Fine. Now I'd like to be able to use these in iMovie with only one conversion. I can convert the stream to a framed (QT) format like AIC. But I'd like to do this just once. Meaning, when I convert clip.m2t to clip.mov I'd like to drag this to iMovie and have iMovie just "copy" an not import/convert. Can I convert to a format where I can just drag to the media folder in the given iMovie project?
For those watching. My toolchain is
1. rewind the tape
2. capture with HDVsplit (win), DVHScap (mac), or whatever
3. split/clip the m2t files with HDVsplit (win) or MPEGstremclip (mac/win), or HDVxDV (mac) and leave as m2t
4. convert the m2t clips I want in my movie to QT+AIC
5. import these QT+AIC .mov clips into iMovie
6. edit
I'd like to optimize 4 and 5. (And by the way, someone should port HDVsplit to mac.)
Thanks,
WL

MPEG Streamclip allows you to export as QuickTime with Apple Intermediate Codec (also QT Player can do this but I prefer MPEG Streamclip for these tasks). I think you should set the resolution to 1440x1080 because that's what iMovie uses internally for 1080i.
I did a quick test and iMovie seems to accept such AIC-encoded .mov files directly to its Media folder. But run some tests through your complete workflow before trusting this will work!
Ok this was helpful. If I take 1440x1080 QT/AIC output from MPEGstreamclip, I can efficiently copy the file in the project. Works like a charm and looks great in iMovie. (I can also now take the 1920x1080 QT/AIC output from streamclip and do the same; not sure what change there. I did a test on a 1:24 length mpeg-2 stream. The 1440x1080 with and without deinterlacing were 700MB and 600MB respectively, while the 1920x1080 is at 800MB. So it makes sense to do 1440x1080 since iMovie handles it fine.)
In summary (hope this helps someone), here's what I do:
0a. Macbook with iMovie HD
0b. LaCie macos formated external drive drive (hfs+)
0c. Canon HV20 filmed at 1080i (not sure what do with the 24p cinemode)
1. use DVHScap (mac) to capture the stream from the HV20. This gives file.m2t, for example. This can be viewed with VLC, for example. (on windows use HDVsplit to capture). Copy the m2t file to the external drive.
2. now use MPEGstreamclip to disect the m2t file. use the 'i' and 'o' to mark inputs and outputs and then "save as". Save this as file_clip.ts for example. The .ts is the same as an .m2t file, so save it as either.
3. now you should have 1 or more file_clip.ts depending on how many times you do step 1 and 2.
4. use MPEGstreamclip in batch mode to take the file_clip.ts or m2t files and "export to Quicktime". Select Apple Intermediate Codec as the type compression type. Yank the quality up to 100%. Select 1400x1080 (4:3) as the frame size and click "deinterlace video" (my opinion on the deinterlacing). Save the movie on the external drive as file_clip.mov.
5. now start a new iMovie HD project and save the project to the external drive. Quit iMovie. open-apple-click on the myproject.iMovieProject to "show package contents". After this you can move your file_clip.mov files to the media directory under this package. A move is best since copy does an actual copy. Move just moves a pointer.
6. start up iMovie and view the trash can when prompted ("Some stray files were found in the project...."). Now drag the trash files to the clips area in iMovie.
7. now edit.
This is a nice approach for a couple of reasons. The .m2t files are great storage formats. The conversion from mpeg-2 stream (m2t) to a framed format like QT+AIC (mov) is done +only once+. And the quality is maintained. Also, I can do this all to an external harddrive, which is nice since I'm limited on my macbook.
I don't have HD gear. Currently I archive SD DV to tape and to big harddisks. In the future I would like to continue to archive HD content in its native compressed (non-AIC) form. Obviously this works via DVHScap, right?
Yes. The m2t files are a great archival format. The 1:25 long clip above was only 275MB while the framed formats were 3 times that. The stream saves differences so it's a lot more efficient (but you don't have frames for editing). VLC is also quick as quick for viewing these. DVHScap never drops any packets (mpeg-2) when capture (for me at least). HDVsplit is also great, but only for windows. HDVxDX also worked like a charm.
Well anyway, thanks for the chatter.
