Use of ArchiveLink for Employee Photos - Performance

All,
We are currently using a simple web repository to surface employee photos in SAP and non-sap content. We're thinking about switching to ArchiveLink. We've configured ArchiveLink based employee photos in our sandbox environment and have an idea how that works. On one hand we'd like to pursue a standard SAP based solution for photos but are concerned that performance could suffer as the biggest consumer of our employee photos is SharePoint and SharePoint Search, sometimes serving up 25-100 photos per page. Does anyone have any experience with performance issues with employee photos in ArchiveLink?
Thanks,
Doug

Hi.
The volume will be a challenge, if 0BPARTNER is the ONLY restriction in the query, but is that the case?
An alternative is to grant access based on either a custom grouping of 0BPARTNER into few categories or a grouping into fxTerritory, like you mention. You can do this in a separate cube for users who will have access to large numbers of business partners anyways, and use just 0BPARTNER in another cube for users who will have few business partners. If your users can not be split like that, fx because you also have users with not really many, but more than a few, etc,  maybe you can use cubes partitioned by Territory or something else, for users who DONT have many business parterns. Like that, you reduce the "threat" from the volume

  • SSP5: Using multiple JVM for load balance performance?

    Sun 12 MAY 2002
    Apps 11.0.3
    SSP5 patchset I
    HP UX 11.0
    db 8.1.7.2 (64-bit)
    Load 60 concurrent sessions, each spawning 2.5 - 3 http connections.
    CPU 3:750Mhz
    RAM 8G
    Is anybody using multiple JVM for load balance?
    What is your ratio of JVM to concurrent iP sessions?
    Are you running Apache/Jserv on a server with any other applications, or is Apache by itself?
    If you are not using JVM, how many httpd processes do you get before Apache implodes? We stopped in the water at 90 httpd processes, but performance degraded starting at 70 sessions.
    Thx - Don

    Using Web Cache to load balance servlet-based Forms (6i and 9i) is unofficially supported. I say "unofficially" because we have actual customers doing it and getting support, but the 2 development teams (Forms and Web Cache) haven't actually done any integration testing of this sort of configuration yet. For your case, please contact your Support rep and ask what was done to use Web Cache as a load balancer for Forms6i at METRO in Germany. The Forms product managemment team is writing up a white paper to describe how to do it, but until then, you'll need to go through Support. Please contact me if you want more information.

  • What is the best way to use a SSD for Photoshop/photo editing?

    Computer hardware newbie here: I do a significant amount of photo editing work and for a very long time I've experienced Photoshop, Bridge and Photomatix crashing constantly (usually due to insufficient RAM) or just generally taking forever (Bridge took forever to load the thumbnail/preview extractions in a folder full of images, Photoshop took forever to save images and Photomatix took ages to load/merge a set of bracketed photos).  Here are the typical error messages I'd get: http://pastebin.com/J9byczse
    As a professional photographer, constantly running into that sort of thing is quite aggravating, so to hopefully avoid ever having to deal with that again I invested in a new custom built computer.  It's Windows 7 Professional 64 bit with 32GB of RAM and a 240GB SSD; I'm using the 240GB SSD as my boot drive/OS, all of my programs are installed there, and the page file.  My photos and data are stored on several HDDs.  I have yet to install any of my photo editing software (Photoshop CS6 Extended, Lightroom, Photomatix etc) to the new computer yet since I'd like some advice first.
    My basic question is this: what is the best way to take advantage of the SSD (and the computer in general) when it comes to my photo editing software?
    Specifically...
    1. If I have a folder of photos I'm working on, should I move it to the SSD and then work on them from there in order to take advantage of the speed of the SSD?  Would this make any difference in terms of speed if the photos are located on the SSD vs. an internal/external HDD?
    2. Most of what I've read online seems to recommend two separate SSDs, one for installing/booting the apps and one for cache/scratch.  Does it matter if I use my 240GB SSD for both?
    3. This is a fairly new computer and the SSD is already almost half full (102GB used, 120GB free) *WITHOUT* any of my photo editing software installed yet.  I'm concerned about how fast that remaining 120 GB may fill up.  As it fills up will I lose the speed advantage of the SSD vs. a regular HDD?
    4. Sort of similar to #3, but should I bother moving any of my other non-photo editing programs/caches off of the SSD to a HDD and would there be any major difference in the speed/lifespan of the SSD if I did so?  It's mostly Firefox and Chrome and their caches that I'm concerned may be a problem if they remain on the SSD.
    Thanks for any help!

    If you have an SSD you can run the cache and programs on the same drive.  However, many recommend a scratch disk size of 100-200 gigs so that will not work here unless you opt for a larger SSD.  Otherwise an internal spinner is recommended that does not contain the program files, or idealy any other files that may want to get acessed at same time (only one read/write head per drive).
    With 32 gig of RAM you may not need the constant use of the scratch drive unless working on large images with lots of layers.  So see no advantage to moving folder to SSD for temp work environment.
    From what I read the new crop of SSD do not have the wear problems of the older versions.

  • Mass upload for employee photos (IT0002)

    Hi I would like to do a mass upload of employee pics to R/3 . I have tried the FM, ARCHIV_CREATE_FILE and it was uploaded successfully but I'm unable to specify the infotype. which for my case I would need it to be in IT0002.
    I've tried the BDC program
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/erphcm/add%2bemployee%2bphoto%2bon%2binfotype%2b0002
    But the pics are still not appearing.
    Anyone has this issue befofe?

    yes. I have tried to upload it manually and it is working. But when I run the program it doesn't work. Could it be the path that I need to specify? Because the client uses IXOS software(links with the 4.6c) to upload the pics and doc. I'm not sure is this the reason it is not working.

  • How do I use itune music for creating photo DVDs with music in adobe element 10?

    How do I use/transfer itune music for DVDs with music in adobe elements premier? 

    On each computer:
    Open iTunes. Select Preferences from the iTunes menu and click on the Advanced icon in the toolbar. At the top you will see a box showing the path to your iTunes library. Click on the Change button, navigate to the location for the library on your external drive, select it and click on the Open button. Note this permanently changes the library's location on that computer. That means you cannot access your music unless the external drive is connected.
    If you don't want a permanent change, then press the OPTION key and hold it down while you launch iTunes. iTunes will then prompt you to select the library you wish to open for that session.

  • Which printers are used by apple for printing photo books

    I was wondering how I had to sharpen my images for photobook printing using aperture. Can I download there printerprofiles anywhere?

    I'm back from the Apple store and ran setup on the new machine.  When I tried to transfer my old information, the setup would recognize my external hard drive.  I called Apple and they said setup only recognizes Time Machine or other real backups of a machine. 
    They were great anyway and walked me through the manual process of dragging and dropping my users folders to recreate my old machine on the new AIr.
    It turned out ok.

  • A friend recommended Photoshop to me.  I need to resize photos.  The webiste has so many flavors.  I think I need just plain Photoshop.  When I click that, I get shotoshop CC.  I have zero desire to use the cloud for my photos.  I just want to run the pro

    I just want to install photoshop to my PC so I can edit photos.  Does anyone have the link to do this?Photoshop General Discussion

    Photoshop CC is not cloud based. It is installed from the cloud, but stays and runs on your computer. Where your files are stored as well.
    For a beginner, you may be better off getting photoshop Elements as it hold your hand a bit to help you. Where as photoshop CC does have a steep learning curve since yes it is for pro's as well as those that want to take the time to learn it.

  • Using C4795 printer for 4X6 photo printing. Prints not registered, can start randomly on page, skip

    C4795, printing 4X6 photos with new iMAC and iPhoto software.  Downloaded latest drivers.  Printing starts randomly on page,
    sometimes skipping half a page, sometimes just a sliver.  Prints are OK with my other 8150 printer, but not 4795.  Any ideas?
    Thanks, John

    Hi John.
    Perhaps it's a printer configuration problem (maybe the paper size is set to a different value than what's in the printer), but you may want to try printing with HP Photo Creations as a test. The program is a free download from www.hp.com/go/hppc, and can load photos from your iPhoto library.
    Here's a quick tutorial on printing 4x6 photos with HP Photo Creations:

  • Calling infotype 0002 in ALV  report for showing employee photo

    Hi all,
    The requirment from business side is a report in which employees personal data shuold be shown with employee photo, I had tried for employee photo in ALV report but it didnt sucessed, then I went for other solution like calling transaction in ALV report.
    In this case I am calling Infotype 0002 but the issue is that the transaction PA20 is coming with PERNR but I am not able to go directlly to infotype which shows employee Photo,please suggest any solution.
    Thaks.
    JAY

    Hi Jay,
    It is possible. Please refer the syntax for the CALL TRANSACTION
    CALL TRANSACTION ta { [AND SKIP FIRST SCREEN]
                        | [USING bdc_tab [bdc_options]] }.
    You can do a recording till the required page comes & call the transaction accordingly. Hope, you are aware about the same.
    For example, I just had a solution to go to the roles tab in the user profile and I did as below:
        CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
        wa_bdcdata-program  = 'SAPLSUU5'.
        wa_bdcdata-dynpro   = '0050'.
        wa_bdcdata-dynbegin = k_ok.
        APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
        CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
        wa_bdcdata-fnam  = 'BDC_CURSOR'.
        wa_bdcdata-fval   = 'USR02-BNAME'.
        APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
        CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
        wa_bdcdata-fnam  = 'USR02-BNAME'.
        wa_bdcdata-fval   = g_value.
        APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
        CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
        wa_bdcdata-fnam  = 'BDC_OKCODE'.
        wa_bdcdata-fval   = 'SHOW'.
        APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
        CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
        wa_bdcdata-program  = 'SAPLSUU5'.
        wa_bdcdata-dynpro   = '0100'.
        wa_bdcdata-dynbegin = k_ok.
        APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
        CLEAR wa_bdcdata.
        wa_bdcdata-fnam  = 'BDC_OKCODE'.
        wa_bdcdata-fval   = '=ACTG'.
        APPEND wa_bdcdata TO it_bdcdata.
        g_opt-dismode = 'E'.
        g_opt-defsize = k_ok.
    *** if user click on the User Name, call SU01
        CALL TRANSACTION 'SU01' USING it_bdcdata
                    OPTIONS FROM g_opt.

  • Employee Photo Options?

    All,
    We are currently using a simple web repository to surface employee photos in SAP and non-sap content. We've configured ArchiveLink based employee photos in our sandbox environment and have an idea how that works. On one hand we'd like to pursue a standard SAP based solution for photos but are concerned that performance could suffer as the biggest consumer of our employee photos is SharePoint and SharePoint Search, sometimes serving up 25-100 photos per page. Does anyone have any experience with performance issues with employee photos in ArchiveLink? The archive.dll will prevent browser caching being a benefit. Any experiences in this area?
    Also, what other options have been explored? Is anyone aware of any non-ArchiveLink based architectures that would be SAP supported, (work with sap content out of the box, but be performance friendly for O-SAP apps)? Anyone have experiences with employee photo architectures with Active Directory based photos or web repository, again that would be SAP supported and work with SAP content out of the box?
    Any insights, links would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Doug

    Two SAP "ways" that are supported with standard services (like Who's Who from ESS)...
    1. ArchiveLink (as you are well aware)
    2. Make use of KM from the portal (since KM is basically a content server plus much more)...(*there is a portal equivalent to Who's Who that you can find info on)
    #2 makes it much better from a performance standpoint. Also, SharePoint should be able to utilize the same repository.
