What exactly we do as part of Generate Comparison Terms and Evaluate Comparison terms

Dear Experts,
As part of SAP GTS area menuin SPL Screening process,
I could see below 3 options, I tried to understand by reading SAP HELP and other available documents, but not able to understand completely .
Can you please help me in by explaining these 3 terms.
● Generate comparison terms
● Evaluate comparison terms
● Aggregate comparison terms
Thank you
Rama

Hi Rama,
It is quite simple and below is the required explanation.
Generate Comparison Terms:- This is used to generate comparison terms up for comparison with Business Partners after the exclusion of various exception terms like aliases etc . to get a proper term for comparison.
Evaluate Comparison Terms:- This feature is used to define how much percentage a particular search term should fulfill to qualify for comparison.
Aggregate Comparison Terms:- This is used to keep the aggregate and keep the comparison terms handy for ready reference against Business Partners during SPL check. This drastically increases the system performance.
The real meaning of the above terms will be more clear when you will go inside each of these areas and check what it is doing.
Regards,
Aman

What exactly do the national instruments citadel nt service and the lookout citadel nt service run

We have WhatsUp monitoring software set to monitor NI Lookout and the PC it is on. It pings the PC, and polls the Lookout Citadel Server NT service. If either one fails, WhatsUp sends an email notification. I was under the impression if the Lookout Citadel Server service is down, then NI Lookout won't graph or record data, but that's not the case. If I shut Lookout Citadel Server or National Instruments Citadel Server down, NI Lookout still graphs and records. What exactly do these two services run?
Also, is there a possibility that NI Lookout can be viewed through palm OS software, like a Blackberry?

Lookout Citadel Server is for Citadel 4, which is used by Lookout 5 and DSC 7.
NI Citadel is for Citadel 5, used by Lookout 6 and DSC 8.
If Citadel is stopped, Lookout will start it up automatically when launched. But if Citadel is stopped when Lookout is running, there might be some unexpected issues, although the data logging seems to be working well.
So I strongely recommend you not to stop those Citadel service when Lookout is running.
Lookout cannot be running on palm OS.

Can anyone clarify what exactly is the difference between the new Airport Express and the Airport Extreme?

The specs look virtually identical and the form factor is also much the same.
The price is not.

Extreme: three LAN ports, Express: one (four total Ethernet ports vs. two, respectively)
Extreme: Gigabit Ethernet, Express: 10/100 base-T
Only the Express can stream iTunes (AirPlay) music
The first two limitations make it resemble the original AirPort Extreme. Dual band is a big plus though, and will go a long way toward alleviating a lot of people's problems with wireless interference.
The form factor is different as the new Express is not designed to be mounted directly to a power receptacle. Also, the new one allegedly supports 50 clients whereas the 802.11n Express was only 10. However, those never seemed to be limitations in actual use.

What exactly is a wrapper class?

In so far as Integer, Byte, Double et al. are concerned I understand that those wrapper classes are a way to handle primitive types as objects. But I've come across references to wrapper classes in documentation and other technical articles and I don't think I really understand what they are really used for. Why do you need a wrapper class for an object?
Could someone shed me some light on this issue?
Thanks,
John

An instance of a wrapper class holds a pointer to and instance of some other class or interface and provides access to it, typically supplying methods equivalent to all the methods of the underlying type.
The basic wrapper class a functional replacement for the underlying object.
When you're passed an object from some code outside your control you often don't know what exact class it is, or have access to it's class definition.
A wrapper object allows you to modify the functionality of such an object. You can extend the wrapper class, for example, adding extra methods. Or you can modify the methods, for example to provide logging of calls made.
As a concrete example, I have a wrapper class LoggedConnection which wraps a java.sql.Connection object. It also implements java.sql.Connection. If you ask a LoggedConnection for a Statement or PreparedStatement it fetches the appropriate object and returns a wrapped version which logs the SQL and the execution times etc..
My "get me a connection" routine can return either a raw Connection or a LoggedConnection according to whether a SQL log file is provided.
The main program doesn't need to know if it's using a genuine Connection object or the wrapped version.
Part of the definition would look like:
public class LoggedConnection implements Connection {
private Connection wrappee;
public LoggedConnection(Connection con) {
wrapee = con;
public createStatement() throws SQLExeception {
return new LoggedStatement(wrappee.createStatement())
}(Of course this was tedious to write by hand because Connection has so many methods, all of which the wrapper must implement. Later I wrote a java program to generate Wrapper classes).

What exactly is Sand Box and what does it do?

What exactly is Sand Box and what does it do? I think it works in the Security Mechanism of Java as a Byte Code Verifier (or atleast as a part of the Byte Code Verifier)..
Your thoughts please..?

What exactly is Sand Box and what does it do?It's a concept. It means that the executed code (of applets, Webstart apps) has restricted access rights to System resources. So if it tries anything evil, it won't be able to.

Only boots into safe mode (What exactly is left out in safe mode?)

my PBG4 hangs on a blank blue screen when i boot it, this happens on fresh (HD wiped) installs of both Tiger and Leopard. It boots fine from a dvd and while in safe mode.
i want to try to track down what exactly is causing the hang, i guess it is a hardware problem that only presents itself when all the stock drivers from apple are installed. is there a list somewhere of what is left out of a safe mode boot?

Hi slee!
"...this happens on fresh (HD wiped) installs of both Tiger and Leopard."
Do you mean that, you did an Erase & Install of Tiger 10.4.x, and the PowerBook G4, won't successfully startup, and the same, if you do an Erase & Install of Leopard 10.5.x?
Have you successfully installed either of those versions on the PB G4 before?
Are you using a Full Retail Version, of the Tiger Install DVD, and a Full Retail Version Of Leopard.
Or are you using a Model Specific DVD, from another model of Mac?
If this is the type of disc, then that may explain the unsuccessful installation.
The discs should look exactly like the images in the above links, and not say Upgrade, CPU Drop-in DVD, or "This software is part of a hardware bundle purchase - not to be sold seperately." on them.

What exactly does the AppleCare cover for MacBook Pro with Retina Display?

I purchased the extended protection plan for my MacBook Pro with Retina Display 15" and my question is what exactly does it cover in what kind of situations (i.e. viruses, damaged ports, damaged charger, etc.)? I want to be able to take full advantage of the protection plan since it was a pretty big whole in my wallet.

AppleCare covers all the problems you have with your MacBook Pro with Retina display and the peripherals which came with it (your charger) if you have a hardware problem that you didn't cause. For example, after 2 or 3 years and 1000 charges, OS X says that your battery has to be replaced: in this case, you have to pay for the battery, because batteries have got a lifetime, and Unibody Macs batteries have got an average lifetime of about 1000 charges.
However, if the RAM gets damaged and you haven't done anything to cause it, you will get your computer repaired or replaced for free. AppleCare in a MacBook Pro with Retina display is very important, because near all the parts are soldered into the logic board and repairs are expensive

Reducing file size #1...what exactly does file, reduce file size do?

Questions on reducing a pages to pdf file size…I will post each question seperatly.
1) I was surprised to see page reduce file size take it from 50 megs to 20 megs…when I looked at a large jpeg file, its size went form 230k to 70k, but the entire image (not just the visible part after the mask) was there (I was hoping it would crop to the mask).
I am curious, what exactly is reduce file size doing?
Is it applying a quartz filter that I can control through colorsync (I think not)?
Thanks, bob

You will need to test the results, but I suspect it is definitely lowering the resoltion to either screen resolution (72dpi) or double (150dpi) and upping the compression of the .jpegs.
In contrast to the Quartz filters, the results from file reduction in Pages is disappointing with a hefty loss of quality for not so much file reduction.
I would work with known distiller settings in Acrobat Pro for a better result.

What exactly is "other" in the AppleTV capacity bar

Hi all,
If I click on the AppleTV device in itunes, I notice it has the following categories in the capacity bar:
* video
* audio
* photos
* other
* free space
What exactly is included in the "other" category? I assume that podcasts may be in there. The reason I ask is that my "other" category seems to be growing (currently 4.56Gb out of 32.85Gb capacity, which is significant). Is there anything I can do to control the size of this?
Many thanks in advance.

Likely the case. You have to remember podcasts are provided by 3rd parties and by there very nature some podcasts are amateur productions or are not necessarily aimed at itunes specifically. There is a chance that some podcasts, whilst playing just fine, don't actually meet the specs from the tv prospective and as such even when completely downloaded don't properly get moved to the appropriate category.
I've just downloaded the 'Hidden Universe' podcasts, I watched the 'other' category increase in size as more of the podcast downloaded, once complete the 'other' reset to its original value and 'video' increased appropriately.

What exactly are Field symbols?

Hi SDN,
What exactly are Field symbols?
I have read they are not pointers then what are they?
Regards,
Rahul

Hi
see this
Field Symbols
Field symbols are placeholders or symbolic names for other fields. They do not physically reserve space for a field, but point to its contents. A field symbol cam point to any data object. The data object to which a field symbol points is assigned to it after it has been declared in the program.
Whenever you address a field symbol in a program, you are addressing the field that is assigned to the field symbol. After successful assignment, there is no difference in ABAP whether you reference the field symbol or the field itself. You must assign a field to each field symbol before you can address the latter in programs.
Field symbols are similar to dereferenced pointers in C (that is, pointers to which the content operator * is applied). However, the only real equivalent of pointers in ABAP, that is, variables that contain a memory address (reference) and that can be used without the contents operator, are reference variables in ABAP Objects.
All operations programmed with field symbols are applied to the field assigned to it. For example, a MOVE statement between two field symbols moves the contents of the field assigned to the first field symbol to the field assigned to the second field symbol. The field symbols themselves point to the same fields after the MOVE statement as they did before.
You can create field symbols either without or with type specifications. If you do not specify a type, the field symbol inherits all of the technical attributes of the field assigned to it. If you do specify a type, the system checks the compatibility of the field symbol and the field you are assigning to it during the ASSIGN statement.
Field symbols provide greater flexibility when you address data objects:
If you want to process sections of fields, you can specify the offset and length of the field dynamically.
You can assign one field symbol to another, which allows you to address parts of fields.
Assignments to field symbols may extend beyond field boundaries. This allows you to address regular sequences of fields in memory efficiently.
You can also force a field symbol to take different technical attributes from those of the field assigned to it.
The flexibility of field symbols provides elegant solutions to certain problems. On the other hand, it does mean that errors can easily occur. Since fields are not assigned to field symbols until runtime, the effectiveness of syntax and security checks is very limited for operations involving field symbols. This can lead to runtime errors or incorrect data assignments.
While runtime errors indicate an obvious problem, incorrect data assignments are dangerous because they can be very difficult to detect. For this reason, you should only use field symbols if you cannot achieve the same result using other ABAP statements.
For example, you may want to process part of a string where the offset and length depend on the contents of the field. You could use field symbols in this case. However, since the MOVE statement also supports variable offset and length specifications, you should use it instead. The MOVE statement (with your own auxiliary variables if required) is much safer than using field symbols, since it cannot address memory beyond the boundary of a field. However, field symbols may improve performance in some cases.

Syntax Diagram
FIELD-SYMBOLS
Basic form
FIELD-SYMBOLS <fs>.
Extras:
1. ... TYPE type
2. ... TYPE REF TO cif
3. ... TYPE REF TO DATA
4. ... TYPE LINE OF type
5. ... LIKE s
6. ... LIKE LINE OF s
7. ... TYPE tabkind
8. ... STRUCTURE s DEFAULT wa
The syntax check performed in an ABAP Objects context is stricter than in other ABAP areas. See Cannot Use Untyped Field Symbols ad Cannot Use Field Symbols as Components of Classes.
Effect
This statement declares a symbolic field called <fs>. At runtime, you can assign a concrete field to the field symbol using ASSIGN. All operations performed with the field symbol then directly affect the field assigned to it.
You can only use one of the additions.
Example
Output aircraft type from the table SFLIGHT using a field symbol:
FIELD-SYMBOLS <PT> TYPE ANY.
DATA SFLIGHT_WA TYPE SFLIGHT.
ASSIGN SFLIGHT_WA-PLANETYPE TO <PT>.
WRITE <PT>.
Addition 1
... TYPE type
Addition 2
... TYPE REF TO cif
Addition 3
... TYPE REF TO DATA
Addition 4
... TYPE LINE OF type
Addition 5
... LIKE s
Addition 6
... LIKE LINE OF s
Addition 7
... TYPE tabkind
Effect
You can define the type of the field symbol using additions 2 to 7 (just as you can for FORM parameters (compare Defining the Type of Subroutine Parameters). When you use the ASSIGN statement, the system carries out the same type checks as for USING parameters of FORMs.
This addition is not allowed in an ABAP Objects context. See Cannot Use Obsolete Casting for FIELD SYMBOLS.
In some cases, the syntax rules that apply to Unicode programs are different than those for non-Unicode programs. See Defining Types Using STRUCTURE.
Effect
Assigns any (internal) field string or structure to the field symbol from the ABAP Dictionary (s). All fields of the structure can be addressed by name: <fs>-fieldname. The structured field symbol points initially to the work area wa specified after DEFAULT.
The work area wa must be at least as long as the structure s. If s contains fields of the type I or F, wa should have the structure s or at least begin in that way, since otherwise alignment problems may occur.
Example
Address components of the flight bookings table SBOOK using a field symbol:
DATA SBOOK_WA LIKE SBOOK.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <SB> STRUCTURE SBOOK
DEFAULT SBOOK_WA.
WRITE: <SB>-BOOKID, <SB>-FLDATE.

What exactly does "Make AppleTalk Active" do?

Hi,
*System Preferences > Network > Ethernet > AppleTalk > Make AppleTalk Active*.
I would like to know specifically/technically what exactly this option does?
When connecting to OS X Macs, and Windows boxes publishing AppleTalk/AppleShare/AFP, there does not seem to be any need to have this option enabled.
However, I am in an argument with a tech support guy at the moment, who is trying to claim that unless this option is enabled, connecting via AFP [1] is not true AFP...
I know AppleTalk is a collection of protocols implemented in the 80s some time. And I know that AFP on Tiger is basically AppleShare over TCP/IP, and that AppleTalk over AppleTalk is not supported by Tiger.
I suspect the Make AppleTalk Active option is somehow related to supporting AppleTalk sharing with old Mac systems, OS9,8,7 etc. But I really need to know exactly.
Thanks.
+[1] in this case, it is relating to sharing files between Tiger 10.4.10 systems and a Windows XP based RIP which is publishing some flavour of AppleShare.+

Chris--
My understanding is that AppleTalk is the protocol, like TCP/IP is a protocol. That's what this page implies to me:
http://www.protocols.com/pbook/appletalk.htm
So, at its inception, AppleTalk was a network transport protocol. There was a time when you could build an AppleTalk network without using TCP/IP, TCP/IP was only for the Internet (if you even knew what that was). You would just connect up some cables (not even ethernet, necessarily), and you'd get a network. It was pretty slow, but ethernet stuff was wicked expensive, so it didn't matter. AppleTalk handled the network transport, and AFP was a part of that.
Sometime before OS 9 came out, Apple moved the AFP part to TCP/IP. AppleTalk was still available, mostly because of the legions of people who had old printers that only had AppleTalk (I know I was one of them until March of this year, when my LaserWriter Pro 600 gave up the ghost). If I had to guess I'd guess it's been almost ten years since they moved to AFP over TCP/IP. Certainly it was before OS 9.
If you want to try connecting to the Windows Server via AppleTalk, you can try changing the URL in the dialog you get when you use the Finder's "Connect to Server..." menu item. I think, if I remember correctly, it takes this form:
<pre class="command">afp://at/serveraddress:*/</pre>
If that doesn't work, then take out one "/" after "afp:".

I am confused about Icloud. I have a 5 year old Macbook, a 2 year old macbook and a 5 year old mac mini. What exactly do I need to do to get all this connected via Icloud. I also have an Iphone 3G. Help please!

I am confused about Icloud. I have a 5 year old Macbook, a 2 year old macbook and a 5 year old mac mini. What exactly do I need to do to get all this connected via Icloud. I also have an Iphone 3G. Help please! Also, I still don't understand exactly what the benefits are. At the moment it seems a lot of hassle to change a system that's been working perfectly well and that I'm very happy with. I'm not at all sure whether the mac mini (1.66 GHz INtel Core Duo) can be brought up to the relevant spec to run ICloud. Any thoughts?

There are two aspects to iCloud. One is simply getting an account, or migrating a mobileme account to iCloud. The second part is using the various features of iCloud to sync contacts, calendars, use music match or photo sharing, and store iWorks documents.
First to get an iCloud account:
If you have a mobileme account, you can migrate by simply logging onto www.icloud.com (ignore any references to Lion and just click through to complete the migration). If you have OS X Lion or an iOS 5 mobile device, you can create an iCloud account on that device using any valid AppleID.
Once you have an account, you can use JUST the mail account if you wishi - it is a standard IMAP account so you would set it up like any other IMAP email account you have, in whatever client program you use to read email.
To use the OTHER feautes of iCloud, your computers will have to be running OS X Lion (10.7). Your iPhone 3G will never be able to use iCloud as it cannot run iOS 5 (you need a min. of an iPhone 3GS to run iOS 5).
The requirements for OS X Lion are here - http://www.apple.com/macosx/specs.html You need a min. of a Core 2 duo processor so you mini is not capable of running Lion.
So, in your case, the single reasons for iCloud would be if you have a mobileme account, then use the online www.icloud.com to migrate your account so you do not lose your @me.com email address. You can use iCloud email (without using any other iCloud features) by setting it up as IMAP mail with these settings - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4864
If you want an iCloud account and do NOT already have a mobileme account, you will need to upgrade one machine at least to Lion in order to be able to create an iCloud account.

Confused. So a new mac came out? what exactly is the migration about?

Ok so I havent been to the apple site in forever and I c that they came out with a new mac, so do the old ones need any updates or new parts?? Im confused. What is the whole migration about? I havent done anything to my macpro since I bought it last christmas.

Hey Amanda, and Welcome to Apple Discussions.
Great to see another Okie in here...
What exactly are you refereeing to when you say "What is the migration about"?
The prev responses are correct in the fact that you don't need any new parts for your Mac. Occasionally about every six months Apple as other manufactures will release a great new product that will make people water at the mouth forcing them to give in to the over powering urge to spend money, that's what they're all about... making money. Your Mac-Pro or (you probably meant Macbook Pro) will last you many years with the OS and hardware it has, but as tjk said you need to perform the Apple Software updates from time to time (the Mac is defaulted to update automatically) to ensure you have the latest and greatest software for the OS you are running.

What exactly should I clone/ backup for a bootable functional external HD?

I want to do two things with an external hard drive: 1) in one partition, clone the system & applications part of my computer; 2) in the other partition, keep my NORMALLY USED iTunes Library plus backups of documents and whatever else.
The question:
**what should I actually clone to the first partition?**
Will it work if I just clone the Applications and System folders? Within that partition, I just want the working parts of the system--Tiger and all my applications--and I want that as a bootable clone, but without all the disk-devouring music and photo libraries. (Those are backed up elsewhere.)
If one day my laptop's HD dies (again!), I want to just plug in the external HD, clone that first partition over, and see everything ready to use, but without the data. Will that work?
(Background: laptop HD is 80GB and uncomfortably full, mainly because of a 30GB+ music library; external LaCie HD is 80GB. I don't want to clone the complete HD because I want to use the LaCie to boost my functional HD space. Yeah, I should have bought a bigger external HD, oh well.)
It suddenly occurs to me it's rather pathetic to be writing this on Christmas Day. Oh well. It's not much of an occasion in Taiwan.

Oops... I was totally wrong about what the Library actually is. I thought it contained stuff that's actually within "Users".
SuperDuper is definitely what I wanted. I was having problems because I was trying to make a "bottom-up" collection of files: compiling all the relevant material, and that leads to all kinds of hidden files and stuff that I don't know to add. SuperDuper does it in a top down way: I can select a script to copy everything, and then adjust the script so the Picture folder is NOT copied. Problem solved, I think. (One page in the SuperDuper manual explains how to do this, but unfortunately my first scan of the manual missed that section!)
I've tried booting from the Picture/Movie/Music less external HD partition, and it works exactly as I wanted: the system's there but there are none of the memory-hogging collections.
Extra bonus is that I've now set this script up to clone the System and Applications components every two weeks.
Note that you CANNOT tailor things this way with the free version of SuperDuper; you have to pay for the license.
What I've got now: 80GB external HD has a 30GB partition with everything cloned (twice a month) EXCEPT for the Pictures, Movies, and Music folders. A 45GB partition currently has the music library (at about 30GB) and will probably collect other backups. And my laptop hard drive (nonpartitioned) now has 40GB of free space, to which in a few days (once I'm sure everything's working smoothly) I'll add about 10GB worth of burnt photo libraries.
I'm still a bit confused about "System" terminology: the System Folder with the OS, vs the System Disk, which I suppose is everything all together. However, that doesn't really matter now.
Thanks for everyone's help.
