  • What are advantage and disadvantage for Physical Standy and Logical Standby

    HI,
    What are advantage and disadvantage for Physical Standy and Logical Standby configuration?
    Thanks
    Ken

    Logical standby database
    The key advantage for logical standby databases is that they're opened read/write, even while they're in
    applied mode. That is, they can be used to generate reports and the like. It is indeed a fully functional
    database. Also, additional indexes, materialized views and so on can be created.
    However (this being a disadvantage) not all datatypes are supported.
    Oracle (or more exactly the log apply services) uses the primary database's redo log, transforms them into
    SQL statements and replays them on the logical standby database.
    Physical standby database
    A physical standby database is a byte for byte exact copy of the primary database. This also means that
    rowids stay the same in a physical standby database environment.
    Oracle (or more exactly the log apply services) uses the primary database's redo log to recover the
    physical database.
    A physical standby database might be opened read only; however, the received logs are in this case not
    applied. When the logs are applied, the database is not accessible (it is then in a managed recovery state).

    Kamran

    Hi vahed kamran,
    As said by Aparna, the text are stored in table STXH. we need to fetch them by using the fields
    TDOBJECT     Texts: Application Object
    TDNAME             Name
    TDID             Text ID
    TDSPRAS             Language Key
    we can use READ_TEXT Function module to get the text.
    For Example
    CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'
      EXPORTING
           ID = '0001'
           LANGUAGE = 'E'
           NAME = XNAME
           OBJECT = 'VBBP'
      TABLES
           LINES = i_XTLINE
      EXCEPTIONS
          ID = 1
          LANGUAGE = 2
          NAME = 3
          NOT_FOUND = 4
         OBJECT = 5
        REFERENCE_CHECK = 6.

  • What do symbol ^ and stand for in the following script?

    What do symbol *^* and *>>>* stand for in the following script?
    Does *(int)* means that (temp ^ (temp >>> 32) return the int format?
    long temp = Double.doubleToLongBits(salary);
    result = PRIME * result + (int) (temp ^ (temp >>> 32));
    return result;
    Thank you very much

    The previous reply will help you find all you need to know.
    Does *(int)* means that (temp ^ (temp >>> 32) return the int format?"format" refers to how a value is converted to text. (Sometimes how it is to be parsed as well)
    "(int)" casts the long value to an int value (signed 32-bit)
    long temp = Double.doubleToLongBits(salary);
    result = PRIME * result + (int) (temp ^ (temp >>> 32));This will treat -0.0 as being different to 0.0. If this is undesirable, you can do something like...
    long temp = aDouble != +0.0d ? Double.doubleToLongBits(aDouble) : 0L;
    result = PRIME * result + (int) (temp ^ (temp >>> 32));

  • What are SCMRWBS and SCMEMWCL for ?

    Hello all,
    I'm now filling the installation parameter sheet of SCM(APO) system.
    This sheet has two paraemters whose content I'm not sure of.
    That is, software units SCMRWBS and SCMEMWCL.
    What are SCMRWBS and SCMEMWCL for ?
    Do we need to install them while my project will use PP/DS and BP modules ?
    And can we see whether these usage types installed or not via SAPGUI ?
    I beg your help !
    Thank you for your cooperation in advance.
    Regards,

    Hi Hideki,
    SCMRWBS is for SCM Replenishment Workbench. If you are using F&R modules of mySAP SCM suite, then this component is neccessary.
    Smilarly, SCMEMWCL is SCM Web Communication Layer for Event Management. Again this is part of mySAP SCM, but belongs to Event Management module.
    As far as PP/DS is concerned these two components are not neccessary. However, these components may have some dependencies on other applications / modules. Please check with SAP for any specific inputs if you have any concern over installing them onto your system.
    Thanks,
    Rajesh

  • What level CSS and HTML for Dreamweaver CS5 (Vers 11.0)

    What level CSS and HTML for DW CS5?

    CS5 does not support HTML5 in this sense -
    1. It will not automatically start a new document with an HTML5 doctype (you can force it to do this - if you are interested I can tell you how), but you can always just replace what CS5 writes with an HTML5 snippet.
    2. It will not show any of the new HTML5 tags in any of your menus (or in code hints) - if you want to do HTML5 you are on your own with manual coding.
    The same is true with CSS - if you want to do any of the advanced CSS styles (like animation, gradients, rounded corners, shadows, etc.) you are on your own.

  • Value category and description for maintenance costs

    Does anyone know how I can get the value category and description and tie it to our cost data coming from tables COSP & COSS?    I tried going to PMCO but there can be several entries say for labor, services and you have no way of knowing which entry belongs to what type of cost.
    thanks!

    Hi,
    the value categories + texts are in TPIR2 + TPIR2T. Since you are working with PM, you need to set APPL = PM. And you need to set the correct controlling area. To map the cost elements (COSP, COSS are based on cost elements) to value categories you need to analyze table TPIK3.
    Besides I think that the costs for PM orders are also saved to table PMCO. So reading this instead of COSP, COSS might be easier.

  • What Changes should i do for taking material number in MM01.

    Hi ,
    I am recording Material Master 'MM01'. In that Material Number is not taking numeric values. Automatically its generating one number for one record. But I want to give my own number to that material. what changes I need to do. I want to use that recording in BDC program.
    Plz..give me the solution.

    That is due to functional settings. Here the internal and external no ranges are defined on the basis of material types.
    Just go through spro tcode logistics general->material master->material types---> define number ranges for each material type. Here you can see a table control just check whether any material type is there with external check box as checked. Now at the time of recording just enter that material types which allows you to give a external material no( inside the defined range). Or just ask your functional.
