Update several authorization profile with only one transaction

Hi gurus,
This question occur after a request done to me by a group of users.
I have to apply just only one transaction in all 200 profile/functions, through tcode PFCG (this functions it is contained in all that user profiles) and so I ask you guys if there is some way to put that transaction by only one action, through some easy form, like a mass action... I don´t believe that I have to put that transaction one by one in each profile/authorization!! If this is the only way to do this I won't get to end so early... and if this is the only way then I think this is very stupid way to do this!
Help me please, I have to finish this as soon as possible!
I don´t know what to do!
Best regards,

Hi Petra,
I think you didn´t understand what I asked or maybe it was me I didn´t explain well what I wanna do!
The question is only this, it´s possible to edit / add one, two or three, (etc) transaction codes in object S_TCODE in a big group of authorization profiles/functions (in tcode PFCG or through other transaction) that allows me to change with only one action all of that group of authorization profiles with that new transactions?
We have a many differents profiles and so I don´t wanna believe that I have to change each authorization profile one by one... it´s stupid if it this is the only way to doing this... it will need a long time wasted!!
Like we have the possible to do a mass generate or a mass transport between systems for authorization profiles we should also have that option!
Help me please!
Best regards,

  • 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:

    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.

  • Generate authorization profile with RSSM

    Hi,
    I have a problem with the central User Management.
    We have the Central User Management in a CRM-System.
    1) In BW we generate an authorization profile with the transaction RSSM. Automatically the system assign the profile to an user.
    2)When we additionally assign a BW-role from Central User Management (CRM-System) to the same user, the authorization profile which is generated in BW (Transaction RSSM) is deleted.
    Unfortunately we can not forego to the functionalty in rssm.
    Thanks for any ideas in advance

    THX for your answers,
    I have twist and turn this problem and I see no way around it. It seems like it going to be a lot of configuration in ACS but it is only for one time. It better to do that job with the installation rather than troubleshoot every time the PC administrators type the wrong vlan name.
    As Bastien wrote in his answer:
    "so basically create an internal group, add user to this group, and create an access-policy that match this group and apply an authorization profile with the vlan you want"
    Thx again for your input.

  • HT204088 How how can I synch my ipod + iphone music to my new computer? I get the same error  "my ipod or iphone is synched with another itunes library.An Ipod can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would I like to do Erase and Synch

    How can I synch my ipod & iphone music (purchased from itunes on my old laptop) to my new laptop? I keep getting the same message on my itunes on my new laptop: " The ipod/Iphone is synched with another itunes library. An ipod/iphone can be synched with only one itunes library at a time. What would you like to do - Erase and Synch or Transfer Purchases?" What do I do?
    A couple of other items:
    1) I am guessing Apple does not keep a history of all my music purchases? As I did not have my entire library backed-up anywhere, and relying on the music I have on my ipod and my iphone as my only source of itunes music....I have lost over 500 songs!!!
    2) I used to have an Apple account under another account name, and since have switched to a new account name. Is there anyway to find the history of purchases from my old Apple account name and transfer these over to my new account name and onto my new laptop?
    I hope someone can help, I am having a very difficult time trying to obtain answers. Angie

    The iphone/ipod is NOT a storage/backup device.  Not maintaining a backup copy is a big mistake.
    You can transfer itunes purchases from your iphone/ipod to your computer:
    Authorize your computer for all accounts and then click  File>Transfer Purchases

  • 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.

  • Exposing Only One Transaction through WebGUI

    We have requirement where we have to enable only the PO approaval transaction to the user, I was wondering if there is anyway to disable the command input filed(for TCode) and specify the only one transaction in ITS which needs to be exposed. This way user can not do anything else other than what is exposed out. I understnad that through security one can control the transaction execution authority but even to start with I want user not to give that option.
    Thanks,
    Samir

    Hi,
    If you define an ITS service for your transaction, you can hide toolbar, ok-code, .... with ~WEBGUI_SIMPLE_TOOLBAR. Anyway, you can use R/3 roles to restrict user access to another transaction.
    Hope this helps,
    Iván.

  • My PC won't start with only one push of the start button.

    hi guys my pc won't start with only one push of the start button. It takes me 1 to 10 pushes for it to start. I encountered this main bios error once when my pc started but it fixed on its own. What could be the problem?

    Hi
    The problem can be fixed by running a latest BIOS Update on your unit or if it is a mechanical issue it could be the power button itself.. you can call HP tech support if the notebook is still in warranty.. they'll be able to help you.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to connect many devices with only one FW800 port in iMac?

    Hi,
    I am upgrading to a new Intel iMac from a 2004 vintage Dual2.0GHz PowerMac. I currently have 8x d2 Quadra drives chained by FW800, and 2x Iomega drives connected vis FW400 hub which also connects HD cams.
    My questions is that with only one FW800 port in iMac, I think my devices connectivity is the following?
    (1) Get a FW 800 hub (I can only find 2 port ones at the Apple store and BestBuy)
    (2) Connect the d2 Quadras to one port of the FW800 hub
    (3) Get a FW 800 to FW 400 cable
    (4) Connect my 6 port FW400 hub to the 2nd port of the FW800 hub
    Thanks for reviewing this solution, and I would also appreciate other suggestions or hear about your experiences if you have a similar set-up.
    Will

    In addition to your listed considerations, you should consider the following.
    Many storage needs do not required FireWire 800 speed. For example, USB 2.0 works fine for your Time Machine backup drive. If you are just storing user data such as your iPhoto or iTunes media files, USB 2.0 is more than fast enough. So, as much as possible, if any of those external drives have USB 2.0 connections and the data storage does not need FireWire 800 speed, offload as much as possible to USB 2.0. I used to be a +FireWire snob+, but since getting an Intel iMac, I find that USB 2.0 works quite well for most data storage purposes.
    There are new hard drives that are power efficient and as large as 2TB. Consolidate your data storage needs onto a smaller number of very large drives, partitioned as needed. This will make your setup more reliable (smaller number drives), and save reduce power consumption. If any of your current externals are SATA, you can probably replace the existing drive with an extra large one.
    So, I think you setup should be, extra large FireWire 800 drive connected to the FireWire 800 port directly. Using a 9-pin to 6-pin cable, connect the FireWire 400 hub. Connect any non-storage FireWire 400 devices there. Do some data transfer testing to make sure having the 400 hub there on the chain does not cause the 800 connection to slow down.
    Connect other drives as needed using USB 2.0, existing or new. Retire the smaller of your external drives.

  • An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time

    I recently bought a MacBook Pro, and I figured it would be pretty simple to move my iPhone to sync with iTunes on the Mac from iTunes on my pc, afterall it is the same program and both are designed for the iPhone.
    I have been successful in getting the Contacts and Calendar to sync, but the Music, Applications, Video and a few other things give me this message when I check the sync box:
    "The iPhone is synced with another iTunes library. Do you want to erase the iPhone and sync with this iTunes library? An iPhone can be synced with only one iTunes library at a time. Erasing and syncing replaces the contents of this iPhone with the contents of this iTunes library."
    Obviously, I don't want to erase everything. Actually, I don't care about Music, Videos, Podcasts or Ringtones as I don't have any, but I do care about Photos and Applications. Actually Photos I can reload too, but I don't want to loose the apps I have purchased with the iTunes App Store.
    I even tried going back to the PC and unchecking the Sync boxes on it, hoping this might disassociate it from the phone, but now even on that PC I get the same message.
    How do I disconnect phone from the old iTunes and be able to sync it to the new iTunes? This should be simple right?

    I made an appointment with a Mac Genius and I will say that while it was better than getting to talk to India on a poor quality phone call it was just about as helpful. Sure she was cute and friendly, but I left without my issue resolved and was surprised that I didn't even get a followup from anyone asking about my experience (hence my venting here)
    Anyway, I found a solution for my issue here: http://tinyfish.net/2008/07/18/how-to-sync-iphone-with-multiple-computers/
    This is a real solution to the issue, and has the benefit that I can do this to as many machines as I need and sync at any of them instead of just one. Hopefully, Apple doesn't delete my response since it truly is the answer to the problem and others might be looking for the same solution.

    Same as you would if you bought a pc; copy everything from your old computer to your new one.  Then you can just sync everything from the new computer, as you did with the old one.
