Unix and XI...Query

Hi,
I just want to know how I can Interface with an Unix System.
The Business Case is that there is a Unix system which captures some Inventory data and then at the end of Half day they Download the data in EXCEL and do a BDC upload...
  How can XI be of help....Any suggestions....We can use a File Adapter and then Upload the Files and do a Mapping to the IDOC or an RFC call...
Can some one tell me whether reading Files from an Unix System can be of any Problem or what should be kept in mind while Reading those Files....
Thanking in Anticipation..
Best Regards
Chakra and Somnath

I assume you are running XI on a Windows platform for this to be an issue.  Using the XI file adapter, you have several options:
1) make the file on the Unix box available via ftp, and have the XI file adapter pull the file via ftp
2) enable Samba on the Unix box and create a network drive on your Windows server that allows access to the file
3) enable NFS on your Windows server (via something like Hummingbird Exceed) and NFS mount the Unix file system

  • Verifying and parsing "query" in cm:select query="..." ...

    I'm writting a session EJB that's passed a param (String query) which is supposed
    to be any valid "query" string passed to the cm:select tag (see "http://edocs.bea.com/wlcs/docs31/p13ndev/jsptags.htm#1057716"
    for more info on this tag and the query param).
    My problem is this: I don't think I should write ALL the stuff to validate and
    parse this string because bea has already done it in: com.beasys.commerce.foundation.expression.*;
    but the only source of documentation available on those classes is the Javadoc(which
    isn't that complete). Has anyone used these classes before(Search, Expression,
    Criteria, Logical)? Does anyone know of some documents on how to use them?
    Please help if you can. I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

  • Insert and update query to calculate the opening and closing balance

    create table purchase(productid number(5) ,dateofpurchase date,
    qty number(5));
    create table inventory(invid number(5),productid number(5),
    idate date,openingqty number(5),closingqty number(5));
    Records in inventory:
    1,1,'01-jan-2009', 10, 20
    2,1,'03-jan-2009', 20, 30
    3,1,'04-jan-2009', 40, 50
    when I enter the purchase invoice for 15 qty on 02-jan-2009
    after say '15-jan-09' , a new record should get inserted
    with opening balance = (closing balance before 02-jan-2009)
    and all the opening and closing balance for that product should
    get affected.
    If the invoice for 20 qty is entered for the existing date say
    '03-jan-2009' in inventory , then the closing balance
    for 03-jan-2009 should get updated and all the following records
    should get affected.
    I need the insert for the first one and update query for the
    second one.

    Thinking about it, why do you want to design your system like this?
    Why not simply have your purchases table hold the required information and then either work out the inventory on the fly, or have a job that calls a procedure to add a row for the previous day?
    If you continue with this design, you're opening yourself up to a world of pain - what happens when the data doesn't match the purchases table? Also when is the inventory cut-off to reset the opening/closing balances? Monthly? Annually? Weekly? If it's set to one of those, what happens when the business request the inventory for a particular week?

  • Using Oracle driver in JDBC for Unix and Linux based servers

    Please, let me know how to mention the Oracle driver within the forName.class(" "); statement in the Jdbc-Servlet for Unix and Linux based servers.
    I'm using Windows-OS for Java programming. Should I have to use the same environment(Unix/Linux with Oracle) for compiling or just compiling, mentioning the driver in the java program would suffice?
    Please, Help me.
    Thank You.

    I've used Oracle's thin driver like this:
    Class.forName ( "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver" );
    Connection DBConnection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:USER/PASSWD@database" );
    You need Oracles client classes ( e.g. classes111.zip ) at run time, not during compilation.
    Thin client connects directly to the Oracle DB, so the database description is like PORT:MACHINE:SID
    Connection is made through Oracle's listener even when your DB is in the same machine that your program is running. Port number is propably 1521 or 1526, depending on your listener.ora definitions and used Oracle SQL*Net version.

  • How to put variable selection and the query result the same screen

    Dear all,
       how can I put the variable selection and the query result in the same screen? Please advise. Thanks.

    Not sure if you are saying you want the prompts on the same page as the results... however in 7.0 with BEx Analyzer, you can insert a text object from the design toolbar and assign it to the variable.... this way, lets say you run query for period 6, then the text object will display "6" on the same area where the query results are.

  • Dial Up between Oracle on HP-Unix and Oracle on Windows 95

    Hello Everybody

    Noble,
    This is not the best forum for this question.
    Maybe the public news forums would be better,
    or Oracle support if it is available to you.
    My comments would be:
    Oracle has the async v1 and v2 protocol for doing this,
    but your best bet is to set up a tcp/ip ppp connection, as used
    by 200 million internet users..
    This may raise some security concerns, but dialling back to the
    server trying to make the connection, as well as the normal
    password protection gives some security comfort.
    Information on how to do this should be widely available as it is
    not Oracle or windows or hp specific.
    You can then use a normal tcp/ip connection database link etc..

  • How to implement enter and execute query in ADF

    I am new to ADF and I am trying to create a simple data entry screen in ADF 11g based on a database table. I am looking to implement the equivalent of the Enter Query and Execute Query feature in Oracle Forms. I tried the default operations that are available with the data controls. But they don't seem to have this feature. Can someone help me / point me to how this can be implemented.
    Thanks,
    Srini.

    Thanks Shay. As per your suggestion I have included the Find and Execute buttons for the VO Object and ran the page. I first clicked the Find button and entered by query condition and then clicked the Execute button. At this point I get an error popup asking me to enter values for all the mandatory fields. Am I missing something?

  • Alarm and Event Query Very Slow

    Group,
    I am using the DSC Alarm and Event Query vi to pull data from the SQL database (not the Citadel).  I have a filter set up that specifies the "Alarm Area" and the start and stop dates with maximun results set to 22.  These dates are set to only pull the last 24 hrs.  This vi will return around 10 to 20 entries out of perhaps 80-90 total events in the last 24 hours in the database.   This database is ~2M in size.   I have to set the timeout to almost 10 min for this vi to not produce a timeout error.  The results returned are correct but it just seems that the time to run this vi is excessive.  It is quering a database on the same system that the quering vi is running on.  Should I expect better preformance?
    Thanks
    Todd

    Verne,
    I have boiled down the code to this attachment.  This query took almost 7 min to return 22 results from a database size that is listed as 2.09877E+6.  I have also tried the Alarms and Event Query to spreadsheet vi also and it takes the same amount of time.  I am wondering if I place the Alarms and Events into the same (Citidel) database that the traces are going if it would be much faster.  I seem to get trace data back very fast.  If I recall correctly I seperated the alarms from the trace because I was having some sort of problem accessing the alarm data in the combined database...but that was several labVIEW versions ago.  Anyone else having this problem?
    Thanks

    Did you run the SQL from a client on the OBIEE server or your local machine? Does the Physical SQL on the OBIEE server against the DB run in 2 Seconds and when sent by the OBIEE server it takes 109 seconds?? Is that correct?

  • Difference between Report painter and abap query .

    can anyone please tell me the difference between the report painter and the ordinary alv,clasical reporting and also the difference between Report painter and abap query. How the output format will be in Report painter. If anyone has any documents please send it to
    [email protected]
    Thanks,
    Joseph.

    hi,
    ABAP Query is an ABAP Workbench tool that enables users without knowledge of the ABAP programming language to define and execute their own reports.
    In ABAP Query, you enter texts and select fields and options to determine the structure of the reports. Fields are selected from functional areas and can be assigned a sequence by numbering.

    whereas the Report Painter enables you to report on data from various applications. It uses a graphical report structure that forms the basis for the report definition. When defining the report, you work with a structure that corresponds to the final structure of the report when the report data is output.

  • File permissions $OH Unix and Windows

    Hi,
    I am examining an Oracle audit and now looking for all the default file/directory permissions on Unix and Windows. Have searched a lot of sites now but could not find a proper list with all the permissions mentiond. Does anybody knows where to find such a list (or script) to check if my current settings are ok?
    I use OEM to check for my open security policies but this permission item is very hard to find unfortunately.
    So please some info on this unix/windows permissions issue.
    Thanks,
    Paul
    btw Have found some settings for bdump, udump, adump, $OH/rdbms/log and audit (umask 0177) but want to check those other permissions for the whoe installed Oracle software en admin directories.

    Hi,
    Picked a few alerts from EM, for example:
    Allowed Logon Version
    Default Passwords
    Default Permanent Tablespace Set to a System Tablespace
    Initialization Parameter File Permission
    The last few weeks I have already disabled some of the policies but these are the alerts which are left now and I want to get rid of them.
    When you click in EM on "Initialization Parameter File Permission" the description of it is: Ensures that access to the initialization paramater file is restricted to the owner of the Oracle software set and the DBA group.
    So, ok thats is clear to me but I want to look at the whole server/database to make it a "clean" server/db.

  • ABAP Reports and SAP Query

    Hi Experts,
    I have question regarding ABAP Reports, SAP Query, and Transaction with variant.  How are we securing one the above reports that we assign them through pfcg.  We can secure custom program by custom transaction or define the auth group in S_PROGRAM auth object but in this case we have to assign SA38 in production. is that correct?
    Please help me understand difference between the ABAP reports and SAP query. Is the ABAP reports same as Program or they are different.
    Thanks in advance
    Faisal
    Edited by: Faisal on Jun 30, 2009 11:06 PM

    Hi,
    1) End user security (role matrix coordinate with process team)
    This role Matrix design is most important where we can put restrictions and use SoD.
    2) Secure Table (by auth group)
    Table TDDAT and use of transaction se54 for security tables to right auth Groups. Secure s_tabu_dis, s_tabu_cli.
    3) Secure program (as you said ABAP reports are referred to Program)
    Use of table TPGP and program RSCSAUTH for assignment of groups to Program. SA38 Running of SA38 requires a minimum SUBMIT in user Action. A user having SA38 is dangerous as he/she is now enabled to run any report. Hence protection in Auth Group is needed. Verify each and every program is having authority check statement and Auth Group or not before assigning sa38. As you mentioned its best to avoid SA38 and create CUSTOM TXN for each report.
    (We should also SECURE S_DEVELOP in Production properly along with ur points. Please Note).
    4) Secure some batch jobs roles for batch job
    Secure by s_btch* objects and less access to se36.
    5) Create support roles for cutover activity during Go-live
    That is always needed. Go ahead.
    6) Emergency roles & IT roles for support
    This is very much needed as a role of Mitigation and Fire Fighting for Temporary access. Ensure to enable ur audit parameters in RZ10 (rsau* sm20,RSLG* for sm21). Give emergency access but enable audit via sm19 and get audit reports from sm20 and sm21 immediately after the use of emergency access.
    There are also other auth objects we need to be care ful which is a long list and hope every body ensures that (s_cts,a_admi,s_trans, tables ssm_cust, prgn,t000) etc and a host of others. Besh wishes. Let us know if any issue.
