Using File Server instead of FND_LOBS table

Dear Experts
Hi,
we use R12.1 with UP-UX Itanium.
the approach of our company about Attachments in organization mades FND_LOBS table so big.
I couldn't change this approach to attach many file in ERP so I searched in google and metalink how can we reduce FND_LOBS size
but there is no useful information to do this
it seems that this problem is Unavoidable.
So I want to know if there is a way to using FILE SERVER in ebs 12.1.1 or any useful plan to reduce FND_LOBS size or its effects?
Thanks
Best Regards

  • Can I use Reports Server Queue PL/SQL Table API to retrieve past jobs ?

    Hi all,
    Can I use Reports Server Queue PL/SQL Table API to retrieve past jobs using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT from Forms ?
    I have reviewed note 72531.1 about using this feature and wonder if i can use this metadata to retrieve past jobs submitted by a user.
    The idea would be to have a form module that can filter data from the rw_server_queue table, say, base on user running the form, and be able to retrieve past jobs from Report Server Queue. For this, one would query this table and use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT.
    Is this possible ...?
    Regards, Luis ...!

    Based on that metalink note and the code in the script rw_server.sql, I am pretty sure that by querying the table you would be able accomplish what you want... I have not tested it myself... but it looks that it will work... you have the jobid available from the queue, so you can use web.show_document to retrieve the output previously generated...
    ref:
    -- Constants for p_status_code and status_code in rw_server_queue table (same as zrcct_jstype)
    UNKNOWN CONSTANT NUMBER(2) := 0; -- no such job

    OPENING CONSTANT NUMBER(2) := 2; -- opening report

  • Using SQL Server instead of OLite

    Has anyone had any luck with this? I am really not too familiar with the Oracle setup and due to experience, feel much more comfortable using SQL Server.
    I read this thread where it talks about using other databases instead of Oracle Lite, but I can't seem to get it to work for SQL Server.
    How to use a non-Oracle database?
    I can get the ddl file to install and configure for SQL, but I'm having problems getting the JDBC connections to work in the data-sources.xml config file. Can anyone PLEASE... help me here? I've been screwing with this for a few hours, and haven't had much luck and I'm getting really frustrated. I downloaded the DataDirect JDBC drivers, but I'm not sure what I need to do with them in order to get this to work.
    Thanks,
    TC

    Hi TC,
    I circled back with the team. The only set of drivers that we currently support for Microsoft SQL Server are the DataDirect drivers. You should be able to download evaluation versions from their web site and their configuration doc do a good job of describing the configuration string you will need to use to set up the data source.
    Let us know if it does not work as advertized.
    I hope this helps.

  • Using SQL server instead of Olite in Oracle BPEL

    I am now trying to use SQL 2000 server instead of Olite in Oracle BPEL. I couldn't find any instruction or admin config guide. Has anyone had any luck with this?
    If anyone has any experience, please shed some light on this.
    I am now able to get "domain_sqlserver" dll file populated into SQL server.
    How di i configure BPEL to use SQL db instead of Olite? Do i need to set up database connections to work?
    Thank you very much in advance.

    Edwin,
    Thank you so much for the info.
    I have emailed to [email protected] for the question.
    Up to now, i have done the followings:
    1. I have successfully populated domain_sqlserver ito SQL 2000 with some modification.
    2. I have also configured data-sources.xml under ..\integration\orabel\system\services\install\config and unser ..\integration\orabel\system\appserver\oc4j\j2ee\home\config to use MSFT SQL 2000 instead of Olite.
    3. I have also commented out running kill_Olite.bat and start_olite.bat, and start SQL 2000 server.
    4. Installed Data Direct JDBC driver
    Could you please kindly point me what are the rest of configuration required in order to make it work?
    Thank you so much.

  • Configure EP6SP9 KM in a file server instead of KM Database

    Hi All,
    We are at EP6SP9 in Windows 2003.
    As a part of my user requirment, I need to set up all my KM folders in a file repository and not in KM Database. The users would view this folders as KM Folders and need to utilise all the facilities offered by KM like Versioning, subscription and notification.
    I need to also integrate the central ADS Server as the user management engine (Windows Authentication) so that all the users automatically logon to the portal when they log-on to the system.TREX also has to index through this documents in the file server.
    Need some advice on the same.
    1) I have seen a document entitled "Integration of Windows File Services into SAP KM Platform using SSO and WebDAV Repository Manager". Is this the one that I have to use for setting the system up or any other suggestions. Has anyone tried connecting KM to an file server Database.
    2) Can I utilise all the KM Functionalities with the documents and folders residing in a file server.
    Would love to interact with anyone who has worked on the same.
    Regards,
    Rajan.K

    There's already lots of information on the subject right here on SDN. Here are a few pointers to get you started:
    CM repository documentation in SAP Help:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/62/468698a8e611d5993600508b6b8b11/content.htm
    Weblog with step-by-step instructions on creating an FSDB repository:
    Creating a CM Repository Manager - FSDB
    I basically just followed the weblog and it worked. In fact, some steps in the weblog are not necessary if you intend to use the default "documents" repository. In that case, just switch to FSDB persistence mode, add your network paths and it should work after restarting the engine.
    Note that the contents of your repository will be deleted once you switch unless you backup your files to the FSDB root prior to that.
    Hope this helps.

  • Can I use OSX Server instead of Dropbox?

    We are considering buying OSX Server.  One basis for the purchase would be to replace Dropbox.  We currently use Dropbox with local sync of folders, so all oru people work directly in folders that are synced to everyone else.  Thus all docs are available locally all the time adn then they are available on everyones iPads, iPhones and Android phones.  However a downside of that is that it takes space on the local hard drive, we can have conflicts where multiple people open a file.
    Can someone please explain how remote users get access to the OSX server and the documents on it and if there is a "syncing" option similar to Dropbox?
    Thanks
    John

    Answers:
    #1 Yes, if set up correctly the server can be available to everyone with Internet access. 
    Typically this would be via a VPN connection.  One caveat–only one VPN connection can be active from a particular LAN.  In other words, if two computers on the same LAN want to connect via VPN to your server, this will not work (at least it wouldn't under earlier versions of OS X).
    WebDAV is a possibility but I have not had good results when using WebDAV.  Access is limited to apps that support WebDAV connections (such as Pages, Numbers, and Keynote).  Even then it seemed a bit problematic.
    #2 Any offline documents from the server must be managed manually.  In other, you must manually copy them back and forth.  As Linc mentioned above, OS X Server does not offer sync functionality.

  • How to Expire Large Files using File Server Resource Manager

    Is there a way to expire Large Files over 2GB that have not been accessed in 2 years.
    I see under the File expiration options that I can expire files that have not been Created, Modified, or Accessed for a certain amount of time.
    Thanks,
    Eddie

    Hi Eddie,
    FSRM can help report large files and also can help move old files to a folder, but I did not found a way to combine them in a single process.
    Instead how about using Robocopy?
    You can run robocopy /min:xxx /minlad:xxx <source> <target>.
    /MIN:n :: MINimum file size - exclude files smaller than n bytes.
    /MINLAD:n :: MINimum Last Access Date - exclude files used since n.
    (If n < 1900 then n = n days, else n = YYYYMMDD date).

  • Using a variable instead of a table reference

    I have a table that contains a dblink name. I would like to have a procedure that reads the link into a variable and uses that link in select statements.
    So far, I cannot get this to work. Any ideas?

    Jamie, you would use dynamic SQL (either EXECUTE IMMEDIATE or DBMS_SQL) to handle any situation where you have to dynamically swap out table or column names in a statement. Here are a couple of examples using native dynamic SQL (NDS):
    open x for 'select * from t@' || p_dblink || ' where ...';
    execute immediate 'select name from t@' || p_dblink || ' where ...' into v_name;

  • User account with no Internet, but using file server

    I am trying to set up my classroom to where the Internet is only accessible through an Internet User account. I have set up the Internet user and eliminated access to the Internet applications in the Student account. Here are the loopholes when logged in as Student: Using Dashboard weather, a student can click on the city and it will open Safari. In Microsoft Word, a student can open a browser just by typing an address or from the Help menu. If I go into the Account preferences and turn off "Allow supporting programs" it takes care of the student being able to get to the Internet through a back door. BUT it also does not allow connection to a server. When trying to connect to a server, it gives the message "The operation cannot be completed because one or more required items cannot be found (Error code -35)." Does anyone know how I might go about solving this problem?

    If you know which IP address range is allocated to your network, you can do this. Open the Sharing pane of System Preferences and shut off the firewall. Next, enter the following into the Terminal in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder:
    sudo ipfw add 100 allow ip from any to local.network
    sudo ipfw add 110 allow ip from any to any established
    sudo ipfw add 120 deny ip from any to any uid shortname
    Enter the IP range used by the local network in the first line; you can use a / to specify a range. Examples are 10/8, 172.16/12, and 192.168/16 where the first part of the URL matches the range used by the local network. In the second line, enter the short name of the student account. If you run into problems doing this, use 'sudo ipfw flush' to clear the firewall's rules. You can then reactivate the Mac OS X firewall.

  • WebUtil - File Transfer to File Server instead of App Server of DB

    Is it possible to upload a file to server other than the db server or app server?
    Thanks.

    Hello,
    I don't think so. Notice that Webutil allows transfering files only on the App Server machine. With the DB Server, you can only transfert file to/from the database, not the file system.

  • Question about asc format in file server !

    In the z program that exists here it what i have a problem with
    When I use  local file, I can choose the format for data (ASC, WK1, DAT, etc u2026) and the format I need is DAT (DAT     ASCII data table with column tab)
    But when I use file server, I can't choose the format. The output file is always in ASC format.
    Is the file server inevitably in ASC format, or is it possible to choose an other format ?
    Thank you ,
    Teresa

    when downloading the file (or uploading for that matter), you can define the format with addition:
    IN TEXT MODE
    IN BINARY MODE
    Do an F1 help on OPEN DATASET.

  • Pointing KM to our file server

    Hi folks,
    We have recently setup a portal prototype and I have got KM working with the folders that exist on the portal server.  My question is can I point the KM to our file server that exists on our network?  Assuming I can do this, does the Check-in and Check-out/document locking functionality reside on the portal and could users therefore circumvent the security by going directly to the file server instead of the portal?
    Thanks for any help you can provide!
    -Patrick

    Hi Patrick,
    you can access the filesystem by creating a CM repository in FSDB mode or a Filesystem repository. Here is a link to
    some howto Guide for creating CM repositories:
    <a href="http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/kmc/Creating%20a%20">http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/kmc/Creating%20a%20</a>
    The locking is supported by the CM repository, but only KM internally. If the user accesses the file from the filesystem, he can change the document content even if the file is locked in KM. I would also propose to deny access on filesystem level after integrating it into KM.

    Lars
