Use of Single Activity/ Multi activity Resource

Dear All,
In which PP (PP-PI or IN Project system) area following functionalities are used
Single activity resource
Multiactivity resource
Bucket resource
Please reply
Thanks,
Shailendra

Hi,
Only one activity can be carried out at a time in a single-activity resource.
Several activities can be carried out at once in a multiactivity resource.
You can carry out to-the-second planning for both resource types in Production Planning and Detailed Scheduling (PP/DS) and Capable-to-Match Planning (CTM) to determine exact production dates. You can also define planning parameters that allow you to carry out a bucket-oriented capacity check in the CTP process and in block planning.

  • Multi activi resource

    Dear Friends,
    We are using multi activity resource with number of individual capacity as 10. when planning is done, it is giving the same start date for 10 different order as it has 10 individual capacity. But my requirement is,
    1 day = 7 hrs. total available capacity is 70 hrs per day.
    i want the system to consume 10 capacities  at a time for one order. but 10 capacitoes are consumed by 10 different planned orders. Is there any setting to handle this.
    Pls get back to me with your valuable inputs.
    Regards
    Vinay

    Hi ,
    This is based on the consumption you defined in PPM or PDS for example :
    8 Hours to produce 1 Product  , and you have maintain 10 individual capacity 
    This means SAP will consume 1 individual capacity only
    Variable consumption are available in PPM

  • How to retrieve comments from one OfficeTask activity and use them in another OfficeTask activity for Multi level Approval sequential Workflow

    I'm designing a sequential site workflow using Visual Studio 2010 for Project Server 2010. In my case, I have following 6 stages in the workflow:
    1. InitialProposal Stage
    2. Approval Stage1 -- Needs approval from Approver Project Security Group Members1
    3. Rejection Stage
    4. Approval Stage2 -- Needs approval from Approver Project Security Group Members 2
    5. Execution Stage
    6. Completed Stage
    Requirement is workflow should move to Approval stage2 from Approval stage1  if approved by all members of Approver Project Security Group1and it should move to Rejection Stage even if a single member rejects it.
    Workflow should move from Approval Stage2 to Execution Stage if approved by all members of Approver Project Security Group2 and it should move back to Approval Stage1 on rejection by a single member of the group.
    I'm using inbuilt PSWApproval content type and OfficeTask activity for creating approval task for the group members at both stages.
    On task rejected in Approval stage2, task will be assigned again to Approval Stage1 and I want to show comments given by members of Approver Project Security Group2 to the members of Approver Project Security Group1 with this assigned task
    but I'm not able to retrieve comments from officeTask activity.
    My question is where exactly these comments are saved? how can we retrieve them and use them in another officetask activity? If this is not possible then what is the possible solution for meeting above mentioned business requirement?

    Hi Paul,
    Thanks for your suggestion.
    By comments field I'm assuming OfficeTask.Comments field. Problem is, this field is always null. I tried accessing this field in CheckExitCondition activity as well as in OnTaskCompleted but in both the cases, it was null only(I wrote comments while approving
    the task).
    I used a code activity within OnTaskCompleted activity and following code for accessing Comments and Description fields:
    public string officeComments;
            public string officeDescription;
            private void TaskCOmplete(object sender, EventArgs e)
                CodeActivity Sender = (CodeActivity)sender;
                Microsoft.Office.Workflow.Actions.OfficeTask ofctask1 = ((CompositeActivity)Sender.Parent).Parent as Microsoft.Office.Workflow.Actions.OfficeTask;
                officeComments = ofctask1.Comments;
                officeDescription = ofctask1.Description;          
    Please tell me if I'm doing anything wrong here, I'm very new to Workflows. Also, do I need to set any specific property of officeTask for retriving comments?
    Thank you

  • Help Setup KMS on single domain and active for multiple domain another

    Hi all,
    I have a problem about configure DNS for KMS host. My company use a single domain "abc.com". But I must mange more than 10 company different and they use another domain and dns running independently, they have a one lease line connect them together.
    My challenge is how to active all client on more than 10 company. Any ideas is very appreciate.
    Please help.
    Thanks,

    That's a good article suggested by Meinolf, but it's a little outdated.
    For an updated guide for this:
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793409.aspx
    Publishing to Multiple DNS Domains
    By default, the KMS host is registered only in the DNS domain to which the host belongs. If the network environment has only one DNS domain, no further action is required.
    If there is more than one DNS domain name, you can create a list of DNS domains for a KMS host to use when publishing its SRV RR. Setting this registry value suspends the KMS host’s default behavior of publishing only in the domain specified as the Primary
    DNS Suffix.
    Optionally, add priority and weight parameters to the
    DnsDomainPublishList registry value for KMS. This feature enables you to establish KMS host priority groupings and weighting within each group to define which KMS host to try first and balance traffic among multiple KMS hosts.
    Note   DNS changes might not be reflected until all DNS servers have been replicated. Changes made too frequently (time < replication time) can leave older records if the change is performed on a server that has not been
    replicated.
    To automatically publish KMS in multiple DNS domains, add each DNS domain suffix to whichever KMS should publish to the multi-string registry value
    DnsDomainPublishList in registry subkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SoftwareProtectionPlatform. After changing the value , restart the Software Licensing Service to create the SRV RRs.
    Note   This key has changed from the Windows Vista location of
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\SL.
    After configuring a KMS host to publish to multiple domains, export the registry subkey, and then import it in to the registry on additional KMS hosts. To verify that this procedure was successful, check the Application event log on each KMS host. Event
    ID 12294 indicates that the KMS host successfully created the SRV RRs. Event ID 12293 indicates that the attempt to create the SRV RRs was unsuccessful. For a complete list of error codes, see the
    Volume Activation 2.0 Operations Guide at
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc303695.aspx.

  • Project Server 2010 - Active Directory Enterprise Resource Pool Synchronization limitations

    Greetings again.
    I have a quick question about the limitations of Active Directory Enterprise Resource Pool Synchronization.  Specifically, what has your experience
    been with extremely large numbers of users (10k plus).  Is anyone aware of a
    practical limit of users in your AD group you would recommend when using the
    Schedule Synchronization feature on a nightly or weekly basis?
    There is a caveat to this question however.  The client has decided (perhaps for some misinformed reasons) to allow access for every user, to every
    project site, within their PWA environment.  They’ve selected the View Project Site option within the
    Categories for the Team Members PWA Group for which 90% of their intended users reside.  So when we ran a couple test syncs in DEV with a smaller AD group of about 8,000 users, the sync understandably
    lasted upwards of 18 hours.  Obviously unacceptable for a PROD environment on a nightly basis and not necessarily ideal for a weekly sync either.
    Experience in addition to documents like these, “Best
    practices for managing a large number of resources in Project Server 2010” tell me that we are way over the practical limit of a scheduled resource pool synchronization...IF
    the client really desires that all users access all their sites.  But before I submit my recommendations, I wanted to check with the community just in case others may have found a way to synchronize large numbers of users (10k plus) on a nightly or weekly
    basis, within a reasonable time frame AND allowed all users to access all sites within PWA.
    What do you think?
    As always, thanks for your help.
    Chris Addis - MCTS

    Hello Hrishi.
    My delayed response has been due to a large amount of testing we have been performing on this particular topic.  Here is an update, please feel free to provide feedback.
    We went back to testing and spent more time reviewing the documents: 
    Best practices for managing a large number of resources in Project Server 2010 and
    SharePoint Server 2010 capacity management: Software boundaries and limits.  Our team interpreted those documents as saying, 1,000 security
    scopes per site is a recommended limit.  It does not say it’s a hard limit, just a recommended limit.  “When the recommended unique security scope boundaries are exceeded, performance issue can occur.”
    So we decided to perform some tests (31 in total) to try and get a gage of what we are seeing.
    We needed to establish a baseline first.  So we performed a series of 23 Active Directory Resource Pool Synchronizations with various settings in a clean, Out of the Box, environment in order to see some consistent numbers.  Here is it’s summary:
    Our AD group of 8,000 users took about 32 minutes, on average, every time to sync.  The difference between the first sync and last sync differed only by 1-3 minutes.
    Adding 40 project sites increased the average sync time from 32 to 120 minutes.
    Adding 100 users to each of those 40 project sites, did not increase the sync times.
    One setting (identified at this time) reduced the synchronization time.  It was the
    Project Site Permissions check box found within the Project Web App > Server Settings > Project Site Provisioning Settings area.  By deselecting this check box we reduced or synchronization time back to the 32 minute
    average.
    The View Project Site check box within the Project Web App > Server Settings > Manage Groups > Team Members group had no apparent effect on the sync times besides what we had gleaned from the Microsoft documentation.
    Naturally, this left us with a problem.  As I’m sure you know, by deselecting the check box (Project Site Permissions), our project sites are now (figuratively speaking) orphans with no connection to the parent site.  This generates
    a new set of issues.  For example:
    Newly created project sites cannot be accessed by the owner and team members.  They will require someone like the farm admin to come in behind them and add the intended users to the project site along with their required permissions.
    All current and futures sites will no longer have users added via the standard method of building a team and publishing the project, but will have to be added manually.
    You can use the Synchronize option found within Project Web App > Server Settings > Project Sites page, but that kinda defeats the purpose.  It would require constant updating on a per site basis to keep up with
    PM changes.  Not very sensible, but it does work.
    With this baseline information, we moved our tests into our DEV environment which somewhat mimics our PROD environment.  This environment has 352 project sites and we performed 8 tests.  This is where we had some large sync time numbers. 
    Here is the DEV test summary:
    With the Project Site Permissions check box cleared, our AD group of 8,000 users took on average 30 minutes to sync.  This was in line with our baseline times.  With the exception of one test sync that took 99 minutes to complete. 
    That anomaly is acquiescent with what I’ve seen over the years.  Sometimes syncs do some unusual things.
    With the Project Site Permissions check box selected, our AD group of 8,000 users took on average 690 minutes (11.5 hours) to sync.  Unacceptable of course.
    So here’s what we’ve learned when dealing with extremely large numbers of active directory users in your Resource Pool sync:
    We did not see a decrease in subsequent sync times after the initial Active Directory Resource Pool Synchronization as some might expect.
    Our attempt to decrease sync time via the option of removing the View Project Sites was not successful.  (Unless we interpreted Microsoft's document incorrectly.)
    However, our interpretation of the recommended software boundaries and limits of SharePoint Server 2010 as it pertains to security scopes per site at 1,000, appears to be correct.
    Using the option of clearing the Project Site Permissions does produce a reduction in AD sync time, but at a cost segregating your project sites and thus the creation of new processes of maintaining them.
    I’ll remind others that these results are particular to our environments, there may still be exceptions yet to discover.  Others may see numbers contrary to ours.
    The biggest surprise to some members on our team (myself excluded) was that we did not see a reduced sync time after any of our initial syncs.  Some are under the impression that after your initial sync, you should see reduced sync times.  I haven’t
    found that to be the absolute case in all situations, just in some situations.  The reason for this still eludes me.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.
    I’ll let this sit a bit longer, but if no one disagrees with the results, I think we have our answer:
    The number of project sites directly affects your Active Directory Resource Pool Synchronizations if you are using the
    Project Site Permissions option.  If you plan on synchronizing over 1,000 users
    and you have a large number of project sites, proceed with the knowledge that you may have performance issues and long sync times.
    As always, I’d love to hear from you or others just in case I’m missing something.

  • Ask timesten 11.2 Using Oracle Clusterware to Manage Active Standby Pair

    Using Oracle Clusterware to Manage Active Standby Pairs
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13085_01/doc/timesten.1121/e13072/cluster.htm#CCHCFAAD
    What is that mean ?
    I have to use Share Storage for... Oracle Clusterware?
    I think right?... or wrong ?
    Can I have VIP on Master node, and then master down... standby will active with VIP, right ?

    A TimesTen A/S pair is a replicated configuation where a pair of TimesTen datastores, usually located on different machines, act in many ways as a single unit. The active master can process both queries and DML (insert/update/delete) while the standby master can only process queries (think of this as a little like Active Dataguard). Applications that run on the same machine as one of the TT datastores can connect to it via the very high performance 'direct mode' while applications running on other machines can access the datastores in client/server mode. There is a clearly defined procedure for failing over if the active master fails (which involves promoting the standby master to active) and for recovering a failed store back to the correct role. Direct mode applications must failover with the datastore whereas for client/server applications the connection(s) need to be failed over. The basic A/S pair replication mechanism has been available since TimesTen 6.0. The replication configuration is defined via special SQL syntax and monitoring and management (failover control etc.) is performed by way of built-in procedure calls. However, in TT 6.0 and 7.0 the actual monitoring and management of the A/S pair, including failover, is left for the user to implement themselvses or via some custom integration with an external cluster manager.
    TimesTen 11g adds two major new capabilities:
    1. Automatic client connection failover for client/server connections. Think of this as very similar to Oracle DB TAF and FAN. This does not require VIPs or Clusterware since it is implemented completely within TimesTen. However it works very well when used in onjunction with Clusterware.
    2. A deep integration between TimesTen and Oracle Clusterware. All aspects of Timesten A/S pair definition, deployment, management and recovery are handled by Clusterware. There is just a single configuration file and a single TimesTen utility (ttCWAdmin) involved. Of course you need a properly configured Clusterware setup first which will require some form of shared storage (for OCR and voting disks) but TT storage (checkpoint and log files) does not need to be on shared storage. Setting up TT for use with Clusterware is very quick and easy (maybe 30 minutes the first time you do it and much quicker thereafter once you know what you are doing). From then on Clusterware will manage all aspects of failover and recovery completely automatically. VIPs are not required but can be used if desired e.g. for application failover purposes. Clusterware can also manage the failover of direct mode applications. Also, you can define automated backup cycles and spare nodes that can be used if a node suffers some permanent failure. The Clusterware integration offers very rich functionality but also very fast failover (typically just a few seconds in my testing).
    Hope that helps clarify.

  • Is it normal for 10-20% cpu to be used when idle and watching activity monitor?

    Is it normal for 10-20% cpu to be used when idle and watching activity monitor?
    I have a macbook 6,1, 4gb of ram, and my os seems to be spinning the rainbow quite often and laggy. I watch my activity monitor and it never drops below 90% cpu available. Is this normal? if not what can I do to clean up my os. Does anyone have any resources or help? Thanks

    Hello:
    Answer - no.
    The activity monitor should indicate what is consuming the processor when your system is idle.

  • How to get the package name of a procedure used in a process flow activity

    Hi all. I'm on OWB 11.2.0.2.0.
    When I used a packaged procedure or function in a mapping operator, I can find out the package.program_unit name by getting the operator's FUNCTION_NAME property. For example,
    OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING '$mapName' OPERATOR '$operName' GET PROPERTIES (FUNCTION_NAME)
    But when the same is used in a process flow activity, I can't find a property name that will give me the same information. I can get the BOUND_NAME, it does not tell me the package name. It must be stored in the activity properties because when you pull up the Synchronize dialog for the activity, it knows the package name.
    Is there a way to get this via an OMBRETRIEVE?
    Thanks.

    ANA, this is exactly what I needed. Thank you so much. I saw REFs also in the OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING/OPERATOR syntax, but went cross-eyed trying to figure out if I could use the same there. The closest I found was GET BOUND_OBJECT.
    Thanks again!

  • How to use substitution variables in sqlplus activity of process flow

    I have a process flow that does nothing more than create a couple of packages that I cannot successfully deploy from OWB. A workaround, not something that I want to do, but currently there is not much time to adjust the packages so they can be deployed from OWB.
    I can successfully create the packages from files that are present in a directory on the server. But the location (directory) is not the same in all cases (OTAP). So I thought to use an input parameter to the process flow (named TELLINGEN) and use that in the sqlplus activity.
    I have created the parameter START_PATH with a default value.
    I have added an sqlplus activity and placed the following into the PARAMETER_LIST variable of the activity:
    ?${Target.ConnectString}?@${TELLINGEN.START_PATH}/npl_dbug.pkg?
    When I run the process flow I see the following in the output:
    SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.3.0 - Production on Tue Mar 18 18:10:14 2008
    Copyright (c) 1982, 2006, Oracle. All Rights Reserved.
    Connected to:
    Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
    With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining options
    SP2-0310: unable to open file "${TELLINGEN.START_PATH}/npl_dbug.pkg"
    SQL> SQL> Disconnected from Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release
    10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
    With the Partitioning, OLAP and Data Mining options
    It obviously connects to sqlplus but then cannot find the file. Presumably because the variable has not been substituted.
    How can I persuade the activity to substitute the variable?
    Kind regards,
    Eric.

    Have been reading around a bit and found the (a) solution:
    I placed the following in PARAMETERLIST:
    ?${Target.ConnectString}?@${Working.RootPath}/base64.sql?
    And it turns out ${Working.RootPath} is pointing to the location you can provide under the configure for the sqlplus activity in the process flow. Just as you have to provide the target destination as indicated here: Re: SQLPLUS Activity in Process Flow
    From the documentation it was not immediately clear to me where Working.RootPath was pointing to.

    I looked at your post this morning and did not know enough to respond, other than to find out that links to iListen now go to newer, renamed software. Considering it's been nine hours with no response, I'm suspecting few people here have experience with that software. You could contact the current copmany that used to sell that package and see if they have any archived support info.
    BTW: please check you entry for "Mac OS" in your profile. It says iOS, which cannot run on an iMac. iOS is the system for phone and iPads but can't run on Mac computers. Do "About this Mac" from the Apple menu and see what it says about the OS version. Should look like this:
