Using Times-Ten IMDB for a Bitemp database

Hello,
We have a Bi-temporal database. Therefore all the tables are never queries directly. We have created many DB views and then INSTEAD-OF Triggers on these views. The Java layer always performs any SELECT / INSERT / UPDATE / DELETE on these views.
Also the data get's queries on 2 time axis. For this we set 2 session variables for BUSINESS DATE and KNOWLEDGE TIME in user session variables.
A typical view would look like
select * from table t where t.version_valid_from <= SYS_CONTEXT ('APP_USR_CTX', 'BUSINESS_DATE')
and t.cre_datim <= SYS_CONTEXT ('APP_USR_CTX', 'KNOWLEDGE_TIME');My question is that how do we use TimesTen IMDB here?
I tried creating the cache groups based on views, but as the views do not have PK's, it does not work.
Is there an approach that can be used.
Regards,
Vikram R

Hi Anthony,
It sounds clear to me I think.
Unfortunately, at present a single TimesTen cache is limited to caching data from a single Oracle database so it is not possible to consolidate data from 12 oracle databqases into one TimesTen cache. You'd have to have 12 TT caches, one for each Oracle database.
Sorry,
Chris

Using Time Capsule only for back-ups, not as a modem

Hi, We have Comcast modem and router for internet connection. Is it possible to use Time Capsule only for Time Machine-generated back-ups of our Macs?
Is there any complication setting up TC for use as back-up only device?
Thanks!

You can use TC this way. And it's very simple to setup.
Check out the setup guide here:
http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/Time_Capsule_Early2009Setup.pdf
EDIT:
I've just noticed that they've removed the section "Using Your Time Capsule on an Existing Wireless Network" from the new manual.
Anyway here is a copy of the text under that section in the old guide:
To set it up:
1 Open AirPort Utility (located in /Applications/Utilities/ on a computer using Mac OS X,
and in Start > All Programs > AirPort on a computer using Windows), select your Time
Capsule, and then click Continue.
2 Follow the onscreen instructions to join your current wireless network.
3 After your Time Capsule is set up, you can use Mac OS X Leopard to set up Time
Machine to back up the Mac OS X Leopard computers on your network. See “Using
Time Machine with Your Time Capsule” on page 27 for more information.
If you’re using an earlier version of Mac OS X, or if you’re using Windows, you can
connect to Time Capsule to share or back up files.

Unable to insert into oracle db using times ten

I have a times ten 6.0 installation on my m/c connected to an oracle 10.2.0.2 database. The database is a remote database. My application is deployed to oracle application server (10.1.3.1 SOA). I am getting the following SQLException when I try to insert.the first row.
java.sql.SQLException: [TimesTen][TimesTen 6.0.4 ODBC Driver][TimesTen]TT5105: OCI initialization failed. -- file "bdbEnv.c", lineno 275, procedure "ttBDbEnvAlloc"
My env is as follows
OS = Windows 2000
DataSource = User DSN
First Connection
Permanent Data Store = 100
Temporary Data Store = 50
Connections = 20
Synchronous write through cache
I tried a select on the table before insert and it worked. Using ttisql I can insert into this table without any problem. Using a standalone java program I am able to insert data into this table. But from within an appserver I am facing this issue.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards,
Mahesh.

Jimmyb,
Are you logged in as the user that owns that table?
Yes.
If yes, then there are no triggers on this table.
That is true.
You will need to populate the ID column with your insert statement.
Just did that.
Usually, the sequence is very similar to the table name.
Yes I tried few of them in my sql query and it said "sequence cannot be found"
Isn't there some way that it will list the name of the sequence currently being used in a table?

Use time capsule drive for mass storage instead of time machine

I'm considering buying a new Airport Extreme with the time capsule drive. I'd interested to know if I can use the built in drive as an additional HD verses using it for a back up drive with time machine? I'm aware I can plug in a USB external drive for network storage, but would like to use the built one for storage as well. Anyone know if this is possible?

I just got a 2TB time capsule a few days ago to use as a "poor man's file server" for my iTunes library. Bob makes valid points, and I am aware of the limitations, but I think it will meet my needs for awhile. I am in the process of ripping a large DVD collection and my iTunes library is over 350gb which was starting to feel crowded on my MBA's 512gb SSD.
I have plenty of external USB and thunderbolt drives, but I wanted wireless access to the libary anywhere in the house. With the AC wireless on my 2013 MBA, I wouldn't really classify the time capsule as "quite slow", I'm seeing about 30MB/s for FInder file copies. I have a 1TB USB2 WD Passport drive and the speed is very comparable - about 35MB/s. Sure, it's not as fast as my thunderbolt drive at 190MB/s or SSD at 700MB/s, but it seems to work well for my content (I don't use HD video in iTunes).
The only noticeable issue is that the TC disk spins down almost immediately if it isn't in use, so you get a lag of a few seconds if you pause a movie for a minute. And it takes longer to start iTunes of course. For me, these were acceptable trade-offs to allow my library to grow to 2TB without any directly connected external storage.
I wanted an AC router regardless and the TC gives me a wireless disk for $100 more. In the future I can always add a "real" media server and let the TC do backups. But for now I'm happy with the way it works.

Use time capsule both for time machine and external disk

is there a tuto on how to configure the time capsule to be able to use it both as a time machine back-up utility and a storage external disk for music files and video files, for example?

Mixing Time Machine backups and other data on a TC's internal HD presents some conflicts. See #Q3 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule for an explanation and some workarounds.
Also . . . how are you planning to back up the "other" data?

I already have a router and I'd like to use Time Capsule just for its hard drive capacity right now. Is this possible? It keeps asking me to plug an ethernet cable into it.

So I live with 3 others who already had a router running. So for ease Id like to use this device as purely an external hard drive and occasionally back-up my files and store photos/video etc. Is it possible to use this device strictly for that or do I need to constantly give it an internet connection and back-up over wifi that way...?

Suggest that you consider the option to configure the Time Capsule to "join" the existing wireless network there and backup over the wireless. The Time Capsule functions simply as a wireless hard drive in this type of configuration.
Open AirPort Utility and click Continue to to follow the guided setup to configure the Time Capsule. Select the "Join a current network" option when it appears and then choose the option to have the Time Capsule "wirelessly join the network" on the next configuration page.
Continue to follow the prompts to complete the configuration.

I just installed Mountain Lion on my iMac that was previously running Snow Leopard. Bugt I found that some key applications no longer work, so I would like to go back to snow Leopard. I can't use time machine backups for this. what can I do?

I just installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. But In was dismayed to find that my Canon scanner software (Canoscan LIDE500F)no longer works. Nor do any of my MS offce applications. I tried to use time machine to reinstall Snow Leopard (my previous operating system), but unfortunately my time machine backups did not include system software. Also, the original system install disk that came with my iMac would not allow me to install Snow Leopard in place of Mountain Lion. I would appreciate it if somebody could tell me how to solve this problem.

The reason your Office doesn't work is because it is PowerPC code. If you will upgrade the 2004 Office to 2011 Office then that will work.
I don't understand how you managed to get your Time Machine backup to not backup the system.
Now if you still what to downgrade you will have to erase the disk and reinstall Snow Leopard. Most likely all of your application and then restore your data from Time Machine.
To me it sounds like it would be easier to upgrade your software and stay with Mountain Lion instead.

Published to folder iWeb site always using Times New Roman for every piece of text in published site and not showing the original text style used when building the site in iWeb.

Dear All
Hello from rainy, windy and cold North East England! I need to ask for your help as I'm new to iMac and new to iWeb and it's frustrating the life out of me!
I'm just beginning to build a website for my business. Previously, I used Frontpage, but it's been that long since I used it - I've forgotten half of it and so, I'm using iWeb instead as it's silly to use an iMac for business but a PC laptop for the website design.
I've got the background image I want on the homepage (beautiful image of a rain forest - even if I do say so myself!) and I'm trying to enter a text box at the lower half of the screen, in the centre of the page saying 'click to enter'. I type in the text, I edit it so as to change it to the font style of my company (Gill sans MT) and then I publish the site to a folder so that I can see what it would look like when viewed via the internet. When I do this - the font changes size to a bog standard size of 'so small you need a magnifying glass to read it', it changes colour from black to purple (which looks disgusting) and it changes font style from Gill Sans MT to Times New Roman.
It doesn't matter if I delete the entire site and start again or delete the text box, and insert a new one. I've googled this subject until I'm blue in the face and I can't find an answer - can anyone suggest anything that will help?
Many thanks for your help,
Best wishes,
Sean.

Try the following:
delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
Click to view full size
launch iWeb and try again.
NOTE: If you don't use Web Safe Fonts any computer that does not have that font installed will substitute another font for it and change the look and feel of the web page.
So it's safest to use one of those web safe fonts.

How to use time series functions for this requirement

we are on OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.5)
Any pointers and links are really helpful.
I have a requirement where YTD sales are displayed in a column. We wan to compare that number to what that number was last year at the same time. Tried to use TODATE, AGO and it did not work.
|| used for column seperation below.
ProductGroup || YTD Sales Rev||YTD Sales Rev 1 Year Ago||YTD Sales Rev 2 Years Ago
Climate Solutions || 1.7 mil (1/1/2011 - 7/1/2011) || 1.45 mil (1/1/2010 - 7/1/2010) || 1.15 mil (1/1/2009 - 7/1/2009)
Thanks in advance

Kris,
Basically you want to combine the 2 time series functions here i.e. TODATE & AGO.
Here you go..
You can create first a YTD logical column in BMM say YTD Sales Rev..Then create another logical column with calculation as AGO(YTD Sales Rev, YEARDIM, 1) or AGO(YTD Sales Rev, MONTHDIM, 12).
Similarly, you create other measures...OBIEE 11g has time series function in Answers as well but I'd say try to create using RPD as you to calculate 1 logical column based on another. Better to push it on RPD side.
Hope this helps

Using Time Capsule only for Backup, Not Attached to Modem Network

How do I use the Time Capsule for backup without attaching it to the Internet?
I have a slower Airport already attached to my cable modem. I don't want to slow down the Time Capsule by attaching it to that network, and I don't want the Time Capsule out in my living room by the modem. If someone takes my computer, I don't want them taking my only backup of it too.
I want to put the Time Capsule in a closet or an attic, as many people do now.
How do I get it to function independently of the Internet, though? Would seem easy enough. I want to just use the backup function, but not sure if it can be set up without connecting to a modem. If that's true, why on earth would Apple shoot its backup solution in the foot like that? Hope it's not the case.
Any guidance out there for doing this or confirmation that it's impossible?

Yes, TC will work without an internet connection.
Your issue with not have the TC network connect to your existing network means you have TWO independent networks. However, your Macs have ONE Airport card; therefore, you can only be logged onto either your internet network or your TC network. Therefore, you would need to manually change your Airport settings to log onto the TC network to access it or maybe an additional network card on your Mac (I don't know if this is possible). BTW, you will need to set up the TC to Create a wireless network.

Using Time Machine backup for file transfers

Hello,
I have successfully used TM to backup my MBP.
How can I use the files on my external hard drive that were put there by TM to transfer files to another computer. I want to plug my external into another computer and access the backup on the harddrive, as if it were a large flash drive.

You cannot. You can use the drive to backup the other computer, but I don't believer it's possible to restore files from the other backup library.
A TM backup is not a simple file copy. You cannot just access files as though you had copied them to another drive. If that's your intent then TM is not the proper tool. Instead you should clone the drive using a third-party backup tool such as SuperDuper or Carbon Copy Cloner - VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Then the files on the backup drive can be accessed just like any other drive.

Can Oracle Times Ten be used effectively in OLAP ?

Hi ,
Can anyone let me know if using Times Ten in OLAP /datawarehousing increase the throughput or have faster response times?
Thanks.

That's a very general question and so of course the answer is 'it depend' :-)
We do have customer using us in this kind of environment but it really depends on the voilumes of data involved and the type of queries being run.

Times ten

Hi all,
I want to use times ten to cache a part of a database on 2 sites.
The product seems incomplete and difficult to adapt for an existing application.
Is someone use it ?
Is there a roadmap on this product to make it nearest from oracle?
Is there any other solution to cache a part of database on site side to avoid network latency problems (on frequently accessed reference tables) ?
Thanks
Jean-Luc

some other options i can think about
you may cache those reference tables in the database buffer, you may also cashe them in your application server, cashe them in browser.

Times Ten Mailing List?

Hi all,
Does anyone know of a decent mailing list for Times Ten?
Thanks,
Dan

The TimesTen database doesn't support CONTAINs queries and there is no integration with OracleText at this point.

Using Time Capsule as a dedicated external hard drive + back up device

I am running very low on storage space on my current Macbook so I was wondering if I could permanently transfer data to Time Capsule and use it as an external hard drive. If so, can I still also use it to back up the rest of the data on my Macbook? Just trying to figure out my best alternative to clear space on my Macbook. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hello flyeaglesfly. Wecome to the Apple Discussions!
If you are intending on using Time Machine (TM) for your MacBook's backups you will run into the dilemma of it trying to use all of the available hard disk space on your Time Capsule (TC).
You have several options:
o Remove/repartition/replace the TC's internal hard drive. Use one of the partitions for TM backups and the other for NAS. Note: This will must likely void your warranty since you will need to open the TC to do this.
o Create a disk image of the desired size for NAS on the TC's internal hard drive. The drawback of this approach is that Windows clients will not be able to access this disk image.
o Attach an external USB hard drive to the TC. Use the internal drive for TM and the external drive for NAS ... or vice versa.
