Virtual Rooms and Knowldge Management - Best Options

Hi experts,
One of our partner companies have a requirement for creating different project rooms and sharing documents in these rooms.
They have documents with sizes up to 60 MB to share and they need to do the upload/ download through internet.
I would like to get few suggestions on the following queries:
1. Which is the best repository to store these documents? separate file server or something else?
2. How reliable is the knowledge management platform for uploading and downloading files of these sizes?
3. Is there any in-built way to retrieve these files using a mass download, in case required?
4. How can we monitor the data download/ upload volumes in a specific period?
5. Is there any global file viewer options available in KM? for viewing autocad and microstation files
Can any one give suggestions on these?
Thanks a lot for your help.

HI
1. Which is the best repository to store these documents? separate file server or something else?
u can store in CM repository because it supports all the cm functions like subscription etc
in general documents u upload through collaboration rooms is stored in collaboration repository which is of type cm repository.
2. How reliable is the knowledge management platform for uploading and downloading files of these sizes?
if u r uploading documents frequently u can use portal drive option.
4. How can we monitor the data download/ upload volumes in a specific period?
u can monitor using subscription functionality for the folder which will notify u incase of any event say downloading or uploading the file
5. Is there any global file viewer options available in KM? for viewing autocad and microstation files
thers is nothing like that in km but u can make use of local editing option which will import the file to local desktop and allow modification to the file then u can check in the file later
in the mean process this particular file was locked for other user.
Regards,
Vijay.

Working with version management and promotion management best practices BO 4.1

Hi Experts
I wondered if anybody knows if there is a document or something about best practices to work with the version management and promotion management in BO 4.1?
Our Environment includes two servers. The first one is our development and test server. The second server is our prod system.
Now on the dev server we have basically two folders called dev and test. We control access to them with a right system based on the folder structure.
My question now is how you would work in this scenario (third server is not an option). Main target is to have as few reports as possible. Therefore we try to work with the version management system and only have one version of each report in the dev folder of the cms. But this is where problems start. Sometimes the newest version is not the version we want to publish to the test folder or even prod server.
How would you publish the report to the other folder? Make a copy of the concerned report (transport to the same system via promotion management is not possible). Also how would you use the version management in regards to the folder structure? Only use version management in dev folder and export reports to test folder (out of vms control) or also use vms in test folder and how would that work?
Further more I’d be interested in learning best practices with promotion management. I found out that the promotion of a report that doesn’t exist in prod doesn’t make any problems. But as soon as an older version already exists there is only partial success and the prod folder gets renamed to “test”.
Any suggestions on how to handle these problems?
Thank you and regards
Lars

Thank you for your answer.
So you are basically proposing to work with the vms in the dev folder and publish the desired version to the test folder. And the test folder is out of version control in this scenario if I understood you correctly (like simple data storage)?
And how would you suggest promoting reports to the prod system? Simply by promoting the
desired version from dev folder directly to prod? This would probably lead to inconsistence because we would need to promote from dev system to test and dev to prod instead of promoting a straight line from dev over test to prod. Furthermore it would not solve the problem of the promoting result itself (A new folder called dev will be generated in prod but the report gets promoted to the prod folder if there was no report before).
Thank you for the link. I came across this page just a few days ago and found also lots
of other tutorials and papers describing the basic promoting process. The promoting process in general is clear to me but I wondered if it is possible to change some parameters to prevent folder renaming for example.

Whats the best option for passing parameters between tf?

Dear All,
I have three Task Flows:
1. TF1
     - Main Taskflow that calls a web service to gather its data
2. TF2
     - Secondary taskflow which receives a parameter and depending on the value of the parameter received will display its data accordingly. Generally any data
     is feed from TF1
3. TF3
     - Same as TF2Use Case:
All three TF will be dropped to the page as Regions in a Webcenter Portal Application. Changes in TF1 should propagate into TaskFlow 2.
Question:
1. How do I configure that changes in TF1 would be propagated back into task flow 2 and 3 and whats the best option for this?
2. At runtime, user can choose to edit the page and TF2 and TF3 can be deleted but TF 1 should remain as the source of information.
Given the scenario above:
- shall I wire the taskflows via page parameters?
- contextual events?
What are the considerations that needs to be thought of. I havent done such requirements before.
Please help.
Webcenter 11.1.1.6

Contextual events seem to be the best case.
This way you can trigger whenever you want. Web services can be slow so you can trigger the event when the gathering of the data has been finished and then pass some value on the event.
An event also has a payload so it's an ideal scenario to add the data from the service on it so you can use it in the other TF's.
In order to manage the deletion of the TF1, you can use the UI events on the composer: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcenter.1111/e10148/jpsdg_page_editor_adv.htm#CHDHHFDJ

What's the best option when the internal hard drive is full?

Hi all,
I am running an iMac 27" with a 2 TB hard drive, which is supported by a 5 GB external RAID for backup (Time Machine and Aperture Vault).
At the moment I have RAW masters located on the iMac in a special folder and linked into Aperture (referenced masters) and the processed JPEG or TIFF files managed within Aperture (library is on the internal drive).
Well, it finally happened and the hard drive is full, and I need to think about how to reorganize my files.
What would be your preferred scenario of organizing files, keeping in mind both speed/performance and safety/backup (i.e., the reason master files are on the iMac and not just on the RAID is because that gives me one more copy).
Ideas I have come up with:
- Get the internal drive upgraded to 3 TB
- Get an additional external hard drive for the master files
- Split the library and move the less used files/projects to an external drive, keep the others on the drive
- Try to move other stuff (e.g., music) to an external drive (not sure that would be enough)
- Keep masters only on the RAID disk
Any opinions, ideally backed up by experience, would be greatly appreciated. If you'd go for an external drive, I'd also like to hear what kind of drive you'd recommend (this iMac does not have Thunderbolt, it is from 2009).
Thanks and cheers,
Bastian

The best option for your situation in my opinion would be to put the masters on an external drive as referenced masters and get a second external to back them up. This will move the masters off your internal drive freeing up space.
USB drives will be fine for this especially for the backup drive. If you can spring for FireWire so much the better.

Multiple room management -- best practice -- server side http api update?

Hi Folks,
Some of the forum postings on multiple room management are over year old now. I have student/tutor chat application which has been in the wild for 5 months now and appears to be working well. There is a single tutor per room, multiple chats and soon to be a whiteboard per student, which is shared with the tutor in a tabbed UI.
It is now time to fill out the multiple tutor functionality, which I considered and researched when building, but did not come to any conclusions. I'm leaning towards a server side implementation. Is there an impending update to the http api?
Here is what I understand to be the flow:
1) server side management of who is accessing the room
2) load balance and manage the room access 1 time user and owner session from the server side
3) for my implementation, a tutor will need to login to the room, in order for it to be available
4) Any reconnection would in turn need to be managed by the server side, and is really a special case of room load balancing.
My fear is that at some point I'm going to need access to the number of students in the room or similar and this is not available, so that I'll need client functionality, which will need update the server side manager.
As well, I'm concerned about delays on the server side access to which might create race conditions in a re-connect situation. User attempts to reconnect, but server side manager thinks that the user is already connected.
Surely this simple room management has been built, does anyone have any wisdom they can impart? Is there any best practice guidance or any samples?
Thanks,
Doug

Hi Raff, Thanks a ton for the response.
I wasn't clear on what I was calling load balancing. What I mean by this is room assignment for student clients. We have one tutor per room. There are multiple students per room, but each is in their own one-on-one chat with the tutor.
I'm very much struggling with where to do the room assignment / room managemnt, on the server side or on the client side (if that is even possible). In my testing it is taking upwards of 10 seconds minimum to get a list of rooms (4 virtually empty rooms) and to query the users in a single room (also a minimum of users/nodes in the queried room). If after this point, I 'redirect' the student to the least full room, then the student incurs the cost of creating a new session and logging into the room. As well I intend to do a bit of xml parsing, and other processing, so that 10 seconds is likely to grow.
Would I see better performance trying to do this in the client?
As far as the server side, at what point does a room go to 'not-active'?
When I'm querying the roomList, I am considered one of the 'OWNER' users in the UserLists. At what point can it be safe to assume that I have left the room?
Is there documentation on the meaning and lifecycle of the different status codes? not-active, not-running, and ok? Are there others?
How much staleness can I expect from the server-side queries?
As far as feature set, the only thing that comes to mind is xpath and or wild card support for getNode() but i think this was mentioned in other posts.
Regarding the reconnection issues, I am timing out the student after inactivity, and this is probably by and large the bulk of my reconnect use cases. This and any logout interaction from the student presents a use case where I may want reassign the student return to the same room as before. I can envision scenarios of a preferred tutor if available etc. In this case, I'll need to know list of rooms. In terms of reconnection failover, this is not not a LCCS / FMS issue.
Thanks again for responding.

What is my best option for a family plan. We have 1 smartphone that uses very little data a usually wifi is avaiable and 3 basic phones. Currently we have 700 shared minutes and unlimited texting. And 30 data. I don't think he needs that much as wifi is e

What is the best family plan option. Currently have one smart phone with 30gb of data and 3 basic phones. Also have home phone for $20/month. Current plan is 700 shared minutes and unlimited texting. My bill is close to $200/month, looking to lower if possible.

On a tablet- pse forgive typos....
Great Advice given earlier by SuzyQ - I believe the question not asked of you is ---what do you want to pay for the services that you need. I think that it would narrow the groups suggestions if you could narrow your needs.
For example: I need talk and text on 4 phones and some data say, 2 Gig, on only one of the phones. what plan is the best cost for me? You may also need to ask what the cost may be to switch to a different plan. I suspect that there will be no cost within Verizon-but ask anyway.
I do not think that you can have a smart phone on any Verizon plan unless you agree to buy data for that phone. Also, you said that wifi is often available-however, I do not believe that Verizon allows talking over wifi without consuming airtime minutes-only data over wifi avoids your allowance to be impacted.
As most here already know, several other service providers offer wifi-friendly service (talk/text/data) that will provide home/business/restaurant service without impacting your allowance- just not here.
After getting some suggestions here, call 611 and confirm availibility and price.
Best of luck in your research.

Advance warning - Mail worked fine.
I had fits with the last link I posted. At first it worked fine, then all of a sudden, it quit working. I now have iCloud - iCal syncing, but iCal is read only. Not a real big deal since you can log onto iCloud using Safari and post a new event.
I finally gave up on Address Book because it kept creating multiple contacts, which if you tried to merge or delete the multiple contacts, the contacts were deleted. It also worked at first and then stopped working as it should.

I have Logic Pro 8.0.2 and would like to upgrade. I'm running OS Lion on a 2010 MacB Pro. What is the best option? Logic Pro 9 App or Logic Studio? Can't find upgrade price. Or should I just stay with Logic 8?

I have Logic Pro 8.0.2 and would like to upgrade. I'm running OS Lion on a 2010 MacB Pro. What is the best option? Logic Pro 9 App or Logic Studio? Can't find upgrade price. Or should I just stay with Logic 8?

Same here, I have Logic Studio 8 and wouldn't mind staying with that version, except that the installer won't run on my new Macbook Pro as PowerPC apps are no longer supported. That's the message I get in any case.
I use to run Logic on a 2006 Macbook Pro.
I guess that makes me a very unhappy Apple user! I've been using Logic from the Emagic days, bought every upgrade only to see Apple kill what used to be one of the best Pro Audio application. Imagine if they had done the same to Photoshop, there would be a lot of unhappy designers out there
Paying the full price for years to slowly see your daily app go down in price & efficiency until it's given away at $199 for semi pro users. Well, at least ProTools is stil alive & kicking so I guess that's the way forward now.
This is coming from someone that never ever used a Windows machine to make music! Life is good still!

Does TouchPad work with: HP Virtual Rooms, HP VPN, and Office Communicator

I bought a new TouchPad and disappointed I can not get: HP Virtual Rooms, VPN, or Office Communicator to work. Any ideas?
Post relates to: HP TouchPad (WiFi)

I would suggest all HP employee chatter get aimed internally on some discussion boards. Don't see the need out here for HP employees to post their own corporate initiative shortcomings on this consumer-facing website. Call me crazy, but HP employees should have an internal mechanism to request their needs from their employer... or is it acceptable to air company issues on a public website?

Hi, we need to create the test environment from our production for oracle AP Imaging. we have soa,ipm,ucm and capture managed servers in our weblogic..
Can anyone tell me what is the best way to cloning the application from different environment, the test and production are in different physical server.
Can I just tar the weblogic file system and untar it to the new server and make the necessary changes?
Can anyone share their experiences and how to with me?
Thank in advance.
Katherine

Hi Katherine,
yes and no . You need as well weblogic + soa files as the database schemas (soa_infra, mds...).

Best option for hosting forms online and archiving the completed forms?

Forgive the length of this post, but I feel it necessary to give a little background information into our problem.
We were looking for a simple solution to a seemingly simple problem: Host ~15 safety forms online for field technicians (electricians) to fill out via their netbooks and submit to some sort of repository for archiving with the ability for the technicians to reopen the forms and make additions over the course of the job / week as well as firing an email off to our H&S rep per form submitted.
Acrobat + Remote Desktop Services (SBS 2011 network) + Reader seemed like a good solution and does work, but it's somewhat cumbersome for the less computer literate techs and proving to be more time in support then we are potentially saving going with paperless forms. This is the system we have in place now.
We initially purchased Acrobat Standard and subsequently upgraded to Professional when we found some limitations we weren't expecting in Acrobat Standard. An Adobe Sales rep also suggested that we check out Livecycle Designer 9, which was included with Acrobat Pro which included even more nice stuff. I started re-authoring the forms in LCD9.
The issue now is that I have Dynamic XML forms with flowed content that cannot be submitted by Reader to sharepoint. Why? You can't reader extend livecycle forms with acrobat, which it is bundled with.....
Why exactly adobe has two different and somewhat incompatible forms authoring tools bundled in the same product is beyond me, especially when one of them requires what I would imagine is an expensive server product to enable it's full use?
So it seems I have a choice between having my employer purchase Reader Extensions ES2 to maintain the nice form design with flowed content, purchasing 12 copies of acrobat to put on the netbooks when Reader SHOULD be all that we need or converting all the dynamic XML forms authored in LCD9 into static AcroForms so they can be reader extended and deployed to sharepoint.
We envision our technicians browsing to and logging in to our hosted sharepoint server, selecting the appropriate form template from a drop down list in a doc library or list, which opens the form for completion in the browser and on submit posts the form to a list on sharepoint for completed forms, preferably with some key fields mapped to custom columns in said list AND with the ability for the submitting technician to re-open the submitted form from sharepoint and make additions as the week / job progresses.
What would be the best option given our current situation and needs? With all due respect, I am looking for suggestions from technically oriented or experienced persons, not sales reps that don't fully know the product.

Ok, so I have done some additional reading and I've found out that Livecycle forms can be submitted via reader without reader extensions so long as the submit is via HTTP Post or as XML data only.
This effectively means you can collect the data from the submitted forms for processing, but you can not re-render the form from the form template and the XML without the presumably expensive server component, Reader Extensions, which for all I know, requires other components to run.
This all seems awfully expensive for a solution to host a dozen or so forms and archive the submissions in one place where they can be re-opened and added to.
I don't undestand why it's so prohibitively expensive to submit dynamic PDF forms as PDF vs submitting static PDF forms as PDF, which can be done with Acrobat Pro all by itself at ~$500.

Best option for bb and phone, i have moved but don...

Hi
I have moved into a friends house for four months but dont need to move my existing bb and phone as i can use theres. My question is whats the best option to keep my current package with bt without moving it or cancelling it. Also i dont want anyone that may move into my old property to use my bt services.
Would be great if a BT employee could give me an email
cheers

This is a user to user forum so you won`t get an official reply from a BT Employee without contacting the forum moderators.
I believe that BT can make your phone line either Outgoing Calls Barred or Temporary Out Of Service. You will still have to pay your normal phone/broadband charges.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.
