Use of XDK on production servers

The name of the "XML Developer's Kit" has raised questions amongst our security staff regarding whether the XDK should be treated as a development-only tool and so not allowed on production machines.
I have no experience with it, but based on a skim of web documentation, it sounds like the name is a misnomer and the XDK needs to be on all servers regardless of their role. Can anyone point me to an authoritative answer for this?

For the benefit of others, I'll follow-up myself.
Our DBA's submitted a TAR with thois question and the answer is -- yes, the XDK needs to be available on production servers as well as development ones.

  • [Transport / CTS] Production servers on a different site than dev servers

    Hello,
    My current customer has his development servers on a physical site A and his production servers on a physical site B (distance between the sites is 300kms).
    How can we do to tranport the developments and customizing from site A to site B.
    The customer doesn't want to mount sap/trans from site A to production servers as the exchange are not secured...
    We will use CTS+ in a complex environment (ECC, BI, EP, SRM, PI, Solman)
    Thanks in advance for your help

    hello Thomas,
    you can copy the datafiles and cofiles from dev to prod server and then manually add the transports in import queue of production server and do the transports
    Hope that helps

    I get the above error logged in production servers and its affecting the performance of my production servers. There is a problem in establishing a connection between the deployment agent and release management server and that's identified as the reason
    for these errors. 
    Please advice on how to change the frequency of number of errors logged in production servers.

    Hi Amar_Baktha,
    For your situation, you can follow the following methods to check if the problem can be fixed:
    1. Please let us know the version of Release Management you're using. If you use Update 2 or 3, you can rollback to RTM or install Update 4 to have a try. Check last reply in this
    thred for more info.
    2. Also let us know if the production server and client machine in different domains. If yes, then you can use shadow account. You can refer to this
    blog.
    3. Remove IIS and readd it.
    4. Check if Windows server update service is installed on your production machine. Install/Uninstall it to have a check if the connection can be established.
    Please try the methods I mentioned above. If the problem still exist, it would be better to elaborate more details about your scenario.

  • Transferring data between two production servers

    HI All,
    I have read weblogs in transferring scenarios from Dev to Qual to Prod.
    But I have a different requirement in which I have to transfer data from one production server to another production server without distrubing the first production server.
    Say A and B are two production servers, I wanted to transfer data from A to B on daily basis.
    Please give me some ideas on this....
    Thanks
    Veni

    Hello,
    I would suggest to use IDOC for transferring data (master \ transaction ) ... to do that you need to setup logical system (prod b) and RFC connection to connect to system prod b ...
    Also distributional model need to setup for pushing the outbound idoc into RFC connection through receiver port.
    Thanks

  • Recommendation of use for MaxDB for production use and Oracle comparison

    Hi all,
    We are about to propose to a customer of ours the use of SAPDB for production use. This would be a good way to reduce license costs.
    Previous use of this DB platform has shown that it is mature, but since I am not a basis or DBA, I can't really pinpoint if we miss a lot of functionality.
    Who could provide some info on the following:
    1 - Are there major functionalities that Oracle provides that MaxDB doesn't?
    2 - Customer reference (or your inputs) on success stories.
    Thanks in advance.
    Leonardo

    > Who could provide some info on the following:
    >
    > 1 - Are there major functionalities that Oracle provides that MaxDB doesn't?
    I would ask:"What functionalities do you expect from a database system?" - and then "Can MaxDB provide those functionalities?". It does not makes sense, IMHO, to compare "possible" things if you never need them.
    > 2 - Customer reference (or your inputs) on success stories.
    We run MaxDB (former ADABAS D, former SAPDB) for 12 years now on all our systems. Our main ERP 6.0 EHP4 has a size of 3 TB, we run on Linux serving about 900 users (700 concurrent), a BI with roughly 1 TB (with BWA), CRM with 600 GB, and tons of portals and smaller systems (SRM, SRM-MDM 7.1, GTS 7.2, SolMan,  PLM (cProjects), Content Servers and more).
    There are, as with every database, "performance problems" in special areas but generally our response times are below 500 ms on the main ERP.
    One drawback of the MaxDB is the fact, that it does not use UTF-8/CESU-8 to store the data (yet) so if you use only single byte codepages in a Unicode system, you will neverless consume the full 2-byte space per character.
    Basically I think that you can run roughly 98 % of the current systems on MaxDB without any impacts.

  • Can LAUTHSVR be used with non WebLogic LDAP servers?

    Is it possible to use LAUTHSVR with other LDAP servers like MS Active Directory?

    Martin,
    LAUTHSVR currently does not support ActiveDirectory. BEA Product Management
    is aware that some customers would like to use alternate LDAP servers and a
    future release of Tuxedo may or may not contain enhancements in this area.
    With present releases of Tuxedo, it is possible for an application to modify
    the $TUXDIR/lib/AUTHSVR.c source to write whatever sort of authorization
    server is desired, but the application will need to handle interactions with
    the ActiveDirectory LDAP server themselves if this approach is followed.

  • Using same licence on Production and Staging

    Experts,
    We have a licence for share point 2013 and we have used that licence on production, now we want to setup a staging instance, can we use the same licence which have applied on production or need to buy a separate licence for staging.
    Thanks in Advance

    I think you need separate licensing for the staging and production. 
    For staging, i would go for MSDN subscription and use the key from their. Because if you buy regular license then its very much costly for staging farm.

    Are there any unique benefits that come with my paid membership?
    Yes, as a member of Creative Cloud, you get many benefits that you do not get when you purchase a traditional shrinkwrapped product:
    Access to both the Mac OS and Windows® versions of the desktop applications and the ability to install them on your primary computer and one backup computer. So, if you have a Mac at home and a PC at work, you can install your applications on both as long as they are not running at the same time. See the product license agreements page for more information.

  • How can we tell the client that use process order or production order (proc

    Dear guru,
    My question on what reason we can tell the client that u have to use process order or production order .
    On what scenario we suggest client that use process order or production order

    Hi,
    Process manufacturing is primarily designed for the chemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverage industries as well as the batch-oriented electronics industry
    Discrete manufacturing is u201Cthe production of distinct items such as automobiles, appliances, or computers,u201D whereas process manufacturing covers u201Cproduction that adds value by mixing, separating, forming, and/or performing chemical reactions. It may be done in either batch or continuous mode.u201D
    Letu2019s think about what your company manufactures. Does it require mixing chemicals? If so, you may need an ERP system that does things like calculate ingredient quantities.
    If your company assembles products from many component parts, youu2019ll require discrete manufacturing functionality
    Other approach:
    If the finish good cannot return back to its basic components, your manufacturing is Process. For instance, the finish good is a can of soda. It cannot return back to its basic components such as carbonated water, potassium benzoate, aspartame, citric acid, and other ingredients. But if the finish good is car or computer, your manufacturing process is Discrete because it can be disassembled and the parts, to a large extent, can be returned to stock. Therefore Bill of Material (BOM) of discrete manufacturing consists of component parts for assembly while Process manufacturing consist of formulas, recipes and other ingredients
    Process manufacturing is scalable. If a formula calls for 1,000 pounds of cake flour, but you only have 500 pounds, you can still bake cakesu2014just not as many. Conversely, in discrete manufacturing, one missing part means waiting for it before the finished assembly unit can start rolling off the production line
    The obligatory requisite for process manufacturing is Lot Potency and Shelf Life where as discrete manufacturing values Serial Numbers, ECNu2019s and assembles.
    If it is discrete manufacturing ---go for Production order
    If it is process manufacturing ---go for process order
    thanks and regards

  • Use of anti-virus products with WebLogic

    A customer's Weblogic architecture consists of the following in order:
    Internet - Firewall - Netscape HTTP server - Firewall - WebLogic server
    The customer wants to provide anti-virus protection for documents/data uploaded
    into this environment by external parties over the internet (the applications
    being developed support upload of documents such as MS Word).
    We are investigating use of firewall integrated anti-virus products. Using such
    a product at the first firewall is ok, but does not help if the application uses
    SSL as the firewall will not be able to decrypt the SSL traffic.
    Are there any issues with using an anti-virus product at the second firewall,
    ie between Netscape and WebLogic? If a virus is detected at the second firewall,
    the anti-virus product will block the request from getting to WebLogic and return
    an HTTP response to Netscape saying the transaction has been blocked. Does this
    pose any application issues?

    Hi,
    Have you installed the Symantec NAC Posture Plugin (Symantec Client Security Posture Plug-in
    ) ? You can find this MSI installer on the Symantec CD. This plugin provides an interface to CTA for checking the status of Symantec AV and its parameters as CTA has no way for directly getting this status from the Symantec Application.
    In most cases the Symantec AV attributes are already pre-loaded on the ACS. You can verify this by making sure that you see the System Token named "Symantec:AV".
    After completing the above steps then define a posture validation rule using
    1. Symantec:AV:Protection-Enabled (Healthy for a value of "1" and Quarantine\etc else.)
    2. Symantec:AV:Dat-Version (You will have to manually specify the minimum acceptable version (E.g. 2007.05.1... ) to declare a System Healthy).
    You probably will have to keep updating the 2 above to keep the minimum version in line with the latest available. A workaround to this is to use another 3rd party AV which relies on an external AV server to get this version dynamically (E.g. Trend Micro). In this case ACS doesn't make the decision but forwards the credentials to the external AV. Symantec support for NAC is very limited and i don't see that improving considering they have their own NAC solution to market.
    Thanks,

  • Lightroom 2.4 Is Too Slow To Use As A Professional Product

    Hello -
    I would like to know how to get Lightroom to respond in less than 4-8 seconds for almost any task.
    From returning to Grid mode (4.5 seconds) to adjusting a routine crop and angle (5-7 seconds per move, 60-90 seconds total) to simply shift-selecting three to fifty photos (4-9 seconds) no matter what I do in Lightroom, it is worse that Photoshop 1.0 on a Mac Plus. Really.
    Returning to Lightroom from another app - 7 seconds.
    Getting the menus to drop down - 4 seconds.
    My lightroom settings:
    standard preview size: 1680
    Quality: High
    Discard 1:1: Never
    write changes to XMP: off
    Catalog: 127 mb on F drive (24 gig free)
    Catalog: 13.5k photos, 95 gig on F drive
    Cache: 6 gig on F drive
    NVIDIA settings: performance over quality
    My computer:
    HP 8730 elitebook
    4 gig ram
    XP Pro, SP2
    Proc: Core 2 Duo T9400, 2666 MHz (10 x 267)
    DirectX    4.09.00.0904 (DirectX 9.0c)
    Chipset: Cantiga PM45
    Video: NVIDIA Quadro FX 3700M  (1024 MB)
    (2x) 250 gig 7200 rmp HD
    Before anyone says to export to a new catalog and re-import, etc, use a smaller catalog, etc, be advised that I have done all of that. I have imported only 250 images to a new catalog, on a newly installed OS, with Lightroom as the ONLY application. Still it acts this sluggish.
    I have scoured the boards for solutions, and having tried all the varied fixes to no avail, I really quite strongly feel that a person should not EVER be in the position or running some of the most powerful available hardware and STILL have to wait interminable seconds for Lightroom to respond.
    This software, as it stands now on the PC platform (unless I am missing something quite obvous) is absolutely unusable in its present state.
    Can someone from Adobe or a board guru please respond in kind to my request for help?

    Hi Paul,
    As it is an automation tool,it is advisable not to run in Production and I do not think any support will be available for same in case if it causes any issue.So,please check if any support will be avialable to you.
    Though,automation tool is reliable,it is working based on GUI concepts and it may lead to failures on various reasons.
    Hence,it is suggested not to run in production systems.
