What is data services?

I see this in my options, "Data Services: On." What are data services? Do I need it on all the time? Does it waste battery?

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
To use the proprietary BB/RIM services, you must have an adequate data plan from your carrier. The carriers host BIS (BlackBerry Internet Service) for their BB users. Typically, BIS is not available via generic data plans. Many carriers call what is necessary The Blackberry Data Plan. Whatever they call it, it is the carrier who delivers BIS to their BB users -- contact them for assistance. Once you have a BIS-capable data plan on your BB (at whatever fees your carrier will charge, btw), you will then have access to whatever level of services you subscribe to from your carrier.

Data Services 4.0 Designer. Job Execution but empty log file no matter what

Hi all,
am running DS 4.0. When i execute my batch_job via designer, log window pops up but is blank. i.e. cannot see any trace messages.
doesn't matter if i select "Print all trace messages" in execution properties.
Jobserver is running on a seperate server. The only thing i have locally is just my designer.
if i log into the Data Services management console and select the job server, i can see trace and error logs from the job. So i guess what i need is for this stuff to show up in my designer?
Did i miss a step somewhere?
can't find anything in docs about this.
thanks

What format to input $currentdate(datetime) Global Variable in Data Services Management Console?

What is the correct input format for the datetime Global Variable in Data Services Management Console?
I've tried several formats and keep getting a syntax error.
The DSMC is Version: 14.0.3.451
I'm a new user and learning as I go.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
if you get syntax error as below,
Syntax error at line <1>: <>: near <.04> found <a float> expecting <+, ||, DIVIDE, MOD, *, SUBVARIABLE, a decimal>.
1 error(s), 0 warning(s).
Check and fix the syntax and retry the operation.
Error parsing global variable values from the command line: <$sedate=2014.12.04 12:00:00;>.
Check the syntax and try again.
solution is simple
Place the global variable value in single quotes '2014.12.04 12:00:00'

What exactly should disabling data services do ?

When I disable data services, it completly disconnects my device (BB Curve 9300) from internet - even if WiFi connection is active, no application (Browser, Messages/emails,...) can connect to internet anymore. BIS also stops working (even though it was working over wifi before I disabled data services).
My expectation was disabling Data Services will only disable internet connection/data transfer via mobile network (GPRS, Edge, 3G,...) - the option to disable data services is in "Mobile Network Options" menu. But in reality it disables all data transfers, including WiFi.
Is this intended behaviour ?

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.

Can you explain what exactly cdc mean in data services......?

Hello!
I would like to know what exactly change data capture (cdc) mean in data services......?

Hi sudheer kore
CDC is basically a technical term - Change data capture. We use a few approaches to work capture changed data during ETL process. This can be called incremental approach/ delta loading of data.
Source Based CDC
-Using a timestamp, date, datetime, or int column to uniquely identify the next "band" of rows to be loaded into the delta process in combination with a status table, global variable, and where clauses of the query transform. This is demonstrated in the Tutorial file provided with Data Services in the CDC chapter.
-Using the Database native CDC functionality, available in Oracle, SQL Server and I believe Attunity
Changes are replicated to change tables in the source, marked as insert/update/delete. Data Services can natively read these tables through the use of CDC Datastore objects and Map_CDC_Operation transform.
Target Based CDC
-Must be used if the methods above are not available. The Table_Comparison transform is capable of comparing all source records to the target table to determine if an INSERT or UPDATE is required for that row.
Few links that would explain this better
Source Versus Target Based Change Data Capture
Map_CDC_Operation in Data Services

What happened to the data service recently?

I switched to Verizon last summer partially because the data service was so good. I have an hour drive to work every morning, and I typically listen to internet radio through my phone for at least half the time. With my previous carrier, the service became so bad that it became too frustrating to listen. When I switched to Verizon, I had almost no disruptions when listening. This great service continued until a few months ago. Since then, the data service is terrible. The station skips all the time, sounding like a CD with a scratch on it, and it just completely stops to catch up at least 10 times each morning... in 30 minutes!! Just like the old carrier, it's becoming almost unusable! What's going on?! Why is the service so bad now! Nothing has changed with my phone (no new phone anyway... I'm sure there have been updates, etc.) or my route, but the service is just aweful!! Please help!!

I drive from Brimfield, IL (61517) to Bloomington, IL (61704), primarily on Interstate 74. It appears that I pass through the following zip codes: 61528, 61615, 61604, 61603, 61611, 61550, 61733, 61742, 61729, 61725, 61705, 61761, 61701.
I rarely make phone calls, but I can't recall experiencing any issues with them.
Somewhere on these forums, I did see mention of an update resetting the Global Data Roaming Access to "Deny data roaming access" and that switching the setting back to "Allow access for all trip" may help with data issues. I made that change, but have not seen any noticable improvement.
Thanks for any assistance you may be able to provide.

I Have the same problem, I switched off location services, maps in data, whatever else maps could be involved in nd then just last nite it chewed 100mb... I'm also on vodacom so I'm seeing a pattern here somehow. Siri was switched on however so I switched it off now nd will see what happens. but I'm gonna go into both apple and vodacom this afternoon because this must be sorted out its a serious issue we have on our hands and some uproar needs to be made against those responsible!

What are BlazeDS folks doing for data services?

Recently we've been putting more and more work into our own data services functionality and I am beginning to regret to having gone with GraniteDS instead of BlazeDS (the grass is always greener, eh?).
I am wondering, what folks here have been doing in that regard, or does everyone in my situation shell out the big bucks for ES2 (not gonna happen here)?

Could not activate cellular data network. You are not subscribed to a cellular data service"
"Cellular Data Plan Usage…There is no data remaining on your current plan. Would you like to add more data now?"what im going to do whit this problem??

I have done that and it is definitely on. My husband has the exact same phone and I upgraded his IOS at the same time, but this problem is not happening to his phone (we are also on the same plan, so our service should be the same). Our settings appear to be identical and my phone is showing the 3G symbol at the top, so I can't understand why it won't access the network.
I've turned it on and off twice and have reset all settings with my iTunes account, but it still isn't working.
I'm not a complete idiot with this sort of stuff - I have tried all the obvious things.

Whats a good way switch between a real and mock data service?

I have a new Flex application...and am contemplating the use of the Mate mock remote object capability.
However, I'd like the application to be able to switch back and forth between a real and mock data service without recompilation. And without loading the mock service objects unless they are needed.
Whats a good way to handle this switching without recompiling the application?

The only way I can think of not having ANY mock services in the production code is to take them out manually. Your program for mocking purposes is going to have to be able to know where these services/object are and how to contact them. I'm sure if it had to be done , you could use some mass of modules and event maps.
Sincerely ,

Data Services job rolling back Inserts but not Deletes or Updates

I have a fairly simple CDC job that I'm trying to put together. My source table has a record type code of "I" for Inserts, "D" for deletes, "UB" for Update Before and "UP" for Update After. I use a Map_CDC_Operation transform to update the destination table based on those codes.
I am not using the Transaction Control feature (because it just throws an error when I use it)
My issue is as follows.
Let's say I have a set of 10,000 Insert records in my source table. Record number 4000 happens to be a duplicate of record number 1. The job will process the records in order starting with record 1 and begin happily inserting records into the destination table. Once it gets to record 4000 however it runs into a duplicate key issue and then my try/catch block catches the error and the dataflow will exit. All records that were inserted prior to the error will be rolled back in the destination.
But the same is not true for updates or deletes. If I have 10000 deletes and 1 insert in the middle that happens to be an insert of a duplicate key, any deletes processed before the insert will not be rolled back. This is also the case for updates.
And again, I am not using Transaction Control, so I'm not sure why the Inserts are being rolled back, but more curiously Updates and Deletes are not being rolled back. I'm not sure why there isn't a consistent result regardless of type of operation. Does anyone know what's going on here or what I'm doing wrong/what my misconception may be?
Environment information: both source and destination are SQL Server 2008 databases and the Data Services version we use is 14.1.1.460.
If you require more information, please let me know.

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your reply. Here are all the options on my source table:
My Rows per commit on the table is 10,000.
Delete data table before loading is not checked.
Column comparison - Compare by name
Number of loaders - 1
Use overflow file - No
Use input keys - Yes
Update key columns - No
Auto correct load - No
Include in transaction - No
The rest were set to Not Applicable.
How can I see the size of the commits for each opcode? If they are in fact different from my Rows per commit (10,000) that may solve my issue.
I'm new to Data Services so I'm not sure how I would implement my own transaction control logic using a control column and script. Is there a guide somewhere I can follow?
I can also try using the Auto correct load feature. I'm guessing "upsert" was a typo for insert? Where is that option?
Thank you very much!

RFC connection from SAP Data services to SAP ECC

We have data services set up in linux machine. I am trying to set up RFC connection between data services and SAP ECC.
From data management console after creating RFC connection i am getting "RFC_bad_connection" error message. Username , password, system number, hostname and client is working from SAP GUI and has all the authorizations. SAP gateway and service is name is correct.
Did anyone had similar issue and what was the solution. Do we have start the RFC connection from linux data services machine, i didn't see any sh executable to do so.
Thanks in advance for helping to solve the RFC connection issue.
Edited by: gupta sasha az on Dec 19, 2011 7:24 PM

I am new to SAP and we have just started work on Data Services.
I wanted to know the complete procedure as in how can I establish a connection between Data Services and ECC.
Thanks for your help and time.
