What data is stored in the CC Background Job Spool File?

What information is stored in the location referenced in the CC Configuration/Miscellaneous setting of 'Background Job Spool File Location'?  Our test and production versions of this system are configured the same, with both pointing to the same location on their respective servers.  However the test location shows a virsa/bgJobSpool folder in it containing multiple files while our production system shows this location as empty.
Both versions seem to be working OK.  We are running backgrounds jobs in each (risk analysis, management reviews, rule generation, etc.) and seeing results.
We updated to the GRC 5.2 a few months ago and are currently on SP9.  This issue came up during a system audit, so we need to come up with an explanation for the differences.
Thanks.

I had reviewed that SAP note previously, but it does not seem to help any with our situation.  We are running ad hoc background risk analysis jobs frequently and can always see the results.  Everything seems to work fine from the application side, we just don't see the logs where we thought they should be over on the server.
From the outside, it looks like maybe it is ignoring the configuration setting and is still using the default location for the log.  Does it need to be on the same drive as the application?  I believe our application and the default location are both on our E drive, but we want to put the location for this and the Alert Log on the D drive.
Thanks.

  • Has anyone put the RAR Background Job Spool on a different server?

    We are on GRC 5.3 SP 13.
    Has anyone put the RAR Background Job Spool File Location (assigned in the Miscellaneous configuration section) on a server different than the one that the GRC Frontend/Java system is on?
    I currently have it assigned to a folder on the GRC server, but it is running out of space.  I am having a problem getting the users to delete old reports as they say they need to keep them for internal Audit controls.  They are also resisting downloading the reports (more work for them).  I have been told that we cannot easily increase the file space on the GRC server (would basically have to purchase more storage and rebuild the server).
    I was thinking about moving the folder over to our virtual storage area, were file size can be more easily expanded.  I haven't found any documentation that says the folder has to be on the GRC server, but I also haven't seen any examples of where it has been put on a different server.
    Has anyone done this, and did you run into any problems?
    Thanks.

    Hello Bob,
    I got your point. Probably there's no recommendation about this, because the recomended practise is to delete or archive the spools as suggested in note : Note 1511027 - Periodic clean up of spool files
    If you have a requirement to keep these files "online", I think the option to save them to a network drive is fine. I haven't tried it for this specific scenario. You have to take into account:
    - Specific user to connect to FileServer
    - Availability of the FileServer. If the FS is down, the RAR job will cancel.
    - Performance. I mean, write to a local disk is not the same to write to a network drive. This point is very difficult to measure,   because it depends on a lot of things like network speed, server load, etc.
    Maybe someone has already implemented it and gives you more hints.
    Cheers,
    Diego.

  • What data is stored to the cloud from my I mac

    How do I know what data is stored to the cloud from my imac.

    By default, a Mac stores in iCloud the data of iCloud-compatible applications, always that "Documents & Data" is turned on in System Preferences > iCloud. Also, you can store mails, contacts, calendars, reminders and notes, always that you have activated them in System Preferences > iCloud.
    You choose what to store. If you want to check what's stored, open System Preferences > iCloud > Manage

  • HT4436 how do I find out what I have stored in the Cloud

    How do I find out what I have stored in the cloud?  Also I have an update (6.1.1)  for my 4S I-phone but can get it to download - even when my phone is connected to my computer.  Can anyone help? 

    You can see some of your data by going to icloud.com from a computer and signing into your iCloud account.  Other data can only be viewed on an iOS device or computer that is syncing with the account.
    What do you mean when you say you can't "get it to dowload"?

  • What information is stored on the sim on an iphone 4S?

    what information is stored on the sim on an iphone 4S?

    The iPhone doesn't write anything at all to the SIM. The only data on the SIM are whatever was 'put there' by the carrier it came from. Generally speaking, I don't believe that even includes a phone number. I believe it's just a unique serial number that identifies the SIM. All of the other information regarding your account is tied in with that in their computer systems.

  • Beginners question - making sense of form, item, pane & variable (with relation to where data is stored in the SQL database)

    Hi Everyone,
    I am new to writing reports (SQL code) for SAP, however I am aware that inside SAP Business One it is necessary to enable System Information (from the View menu) in order to see which tables (and related table attributes / column names) are related to various aspects of the various SAP 'modules' (e.g.: A/R Invoice).
    Using an A/R Invoice as an example I can see at the row (or line) level that an item with the description of 'Opening Balance Transfer' is contained in the table INV1, within the attribute (or column) called Dscription.
    However not every 'on screen object' shows a table / attribute. For example in the same A/R Invoice if I hover my mouse over the Balance Due field all I see is Form related information.
    My question is 'How do I make sense of the Form, Item, Pane, Variable information?', with relation to where data is stored within the SQL database?
    Links to online tutorials explaining how this feature of SAP Business One will be much appreciated, along with any personal advice regarding working with this information.
    Any (and all) help will be greatly appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    David

    Hi David,
    1.Here I am explaining use of each field except pane
    a. Form ---> Used in additional authorization creator
    b. Item, column--->Useful in creating Formatted search queries (FMS)
    c. Variable --> Some of the field values based on another values. ie. indirect values.
    d. INV1---Table name
    2. How to get variable?
    As per your second attachment, to get balance due ,you need doc total field from OINV table. For example,
    SELECT T0.[DocNum], T0.[DocTotal] FROM OINV T0 WHERE T0.[DocNum] = 612004797

  • With journaling, I have found that my computer is saving a large amount of data, logs of all the changes I make to files; how can I clean up these logs?

    With journaling, I have found that my computer is saving a large amount of data, logs of all the changes I make to files; how can I clean up these logs?
    For example, in Notes, I have written three notes; however if I click on 'All On My Mac' on the side bar, I see about 10 different versions of each note I make, it saves a version every time I add or delete a sentence.
    I also noticed, that when I write an email, Mail saves about 10 or more draft versions before the final is sent.
    I understand that all this journaling provides a level of security, and prevents data lost; but I was wondering, is there a function to clean up journal logs once in a while?
    Thanks

    Are you using Microsoft word?  Microsoft thinks the users are idiots. They put up a lot of pointless messages that annoy & worry users.  I have seen this message from Microsoft word.  It's annoying.
    As BDaqua points out...
    When you copy information via edit > copy,  command + c, edit > cut, or command +x, you place the information on the clipboard. When you paste information, edit > paste or command + v, you copy information from the clipboard to your data file.
    If you edit > cut or command + x and you do not paste the information and you quite Word, you could be loosing information.  Microsoft is very worried about this. When you quite Word, Microsoft checks if there is information on the clipboard & if so, Microsoft puts out this message.
    You should be saving your work more than once a day. I'd save every 5 minutes.  command + s does a save.

    Hi Jigar,
    Thanks for your response.
    Anything is like download to desktop or email is fine. But in MHTML format.
    We can download the ALV report in MHTML spreadsheet format when we run the program online. But the program is running for long time and going to dump.
    So i scheduled it as background job and downloading the output in  .HTML format. But user wants the spool/report output in .MHTML spreadsheet format.
    I can write the code. Instead of changing the existing program I would like to know is there any way (from standard SAP) that I can get the background spool in MHTML spreadsheet format.
    Thanks,

  • File path problem in background job spool

    Hello ,
    i have probelm in file path of the background job in spool.
    i have selection screen
    Radiobutton : p_local
    parameter: path1.
    Radibutton: p_applicatioserver
    parameter: path2.
    if i keep program in background job, it will alwas take second option.
    Now user selected first option and executed job in abckground. File stored in the spplication server with corect file  path name. (path2)
    But when i go to sm37 entered job name and checked the spool, it gives me the file path name path1. but i need the file path1 in the background spool. my question whether i need to change the file path name in program or whether i have to change the setting
    Regards,
    zub

    First of all, local is not an option in background job; you can only save to the apps server, and your program should take that into consideration by checking for sy-batch = 'X', for example.  You should be checking in your at selection-screen to be sure the user has not chosen local path and file and background job.

  • What should be stored in the DB when a special char is saved into the db?

    Hello,
    We have a 9.2.0.6 DB with charset as UTF8. We are putting the special character 'अ' into the database through a j2ee application. The application stores and displays the special character properly.
    My question
    1) When the special character is stored in the database, what should it be stored as? Should it store the HTML Entity (decimal) value - अ or should it store UT-8 (hex) value - e0a485?
    2) When the data is viewed through a different application, it displays &32309; instead of 'अ'. Both the applications are almost similar. Any pointers on what need to be looked into would be appreciated
    A few details on the special character 'अ'
    This is a Hindi letter - Devanagari letter A
    The URL below has all the unicode information on this special character
    http://www-950.ibm.com/software/globalization/icu/demo/unicode?ch=0905
    Thank you

    If you are trying to view the character using Windows, the following metalink note may help

    iSQL is the only UTF-8 compliant client provided by ORacle, try it.

  • What is exactly stored in the Backup ITunes files for the IPhone?

    I am thinking about allowing iphone connectivity via Active-sync in our Exchange 2007 environment. I am familar with the intergration and management of Active-sync with the Iphone however, I do have concerns with the backup feature on the ITunes software. I know it backs up the iphone but what does it exactly backup? I am mainly concerned with corporate emails/informatoin that are synched from my email servers and then cached locally on the iphone itself. Does it store any of this information, emails or corporate directory within this backup file? I want to ensure that this information is not stored on users local machine if they exit or leave the company. Your input would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    No, email is not stored in the backups and is downloaded once you click the mail icon.
    When restoring from backups, mail always shows no unread messages for 15 minutes or until you click the mail icon. The inbox will appear blank for a short time as there is no cache from the restore and messages headers begin to download automatically.
    I cannot say for sure as I have not dissected the backup files, but it is highly unlikely backups store this data as it will quickly become out of sync with the mail servers and thus rather useless. The behavior I noted when restoring from a backups above seems confirm this.
