What is the best practice to manage versions in XI?

Hi!
Is there any <b>good</b> best practice ways to manage versions in XI.
Have a challenging scenario with many legacy systems and many interfaces per legacy system.
Should I put all the different interfaces for one legacy system under one namespace in the Integration Repository or should I make one own namespace for each interface.
Or is there other approaches, that I should consider to get a environment that is easily maintained.
br.samuli

Hi,
In our project we have defined our own naming conventions/namespaces.
For instance, we have agreed that we will group all interfaces (from all offices worldwide and different projects) into one single product version.
This global custom product will in turn be divided into different SWC (Software Components) and SWCV (Software Component versions).
So for each business scenario we will create separate SWC's and when necessary create new versions of these SWC's.
This means that each SWC should contain all the required objects to support a complete integration scenario i.e. inbound/outbound-interfaces, data types, msg types, business scenario's etc...
Regards,
Rob.

What's the best practice to manage the page file?

We have one Hyper-v Server running windows 2012 R2 with 128 GB RAM and 2 drives (C and D). It setup Automatically manage page file size for all drives. What's the best practice to manage the page file?
Bob Lin, MCSE & CNE Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Networking, Internet, Routing, VPN Troubleshooting on http://www.ChicagoTech.net How to Install and Configure Windows, VMware, Virtualization and Cisco on http://www.HowToNetworking.com

For Hyper-V systems, my general recommendation is to set the page file to 1-4 GB. This allows for a mini-dump should something happen. 99.99% of the time, Microsoft will be able to figure out the cause of the problem from the mini-dump. It does not make
sense on a Hyper-V system to set aside enough space to capture all the memory on the system because only a very small portion of that memory is used by the parent partition. Most of the memory is under control of the individual VMs.
Yes, I had one of the Hyper-V product group tell me that I should let Windows manage it. A couple of times I saw space on my system disk disappear because the algorithm decided it wanted all the space for the page file. Made it so I couldn't
patch my systems. Went back in and set the page file to 1-4 GB and have not had any issues since.

What are the best practices for Database management and performance tuning?

Hello,
I want to ensure that I am using the best practices for managing and maintaining our Database.
Is there any documentation out there that outlines how to maintain and ensure top performance out of our database?
Thank you!
John Sefton

I appreciate the responses, however this is not the information I am looking for.
I am specificaly looking for best practices invloving the managment and performance tuning.
Example: are their tools that I can install that will monitor the size and response time of the database and alert me if there is degradation in performance?
Are there specific periodic activities I should be doing to garuntee that my database will continue to function that way it is supposed to?
Or is this a fire and forget solution that does not need this attention?

I have three iPhone 4 models purchased in late 2010 that all share the same iTunes account (apps, music, etc), but I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones. What is the best solution to manage these devices for software updates, apps?

I have three iPhone 4 models purchased in late 2010 (for my family) that all share the same iTunes account for access to apps and music, but each phone/user still has his/her custom contact list, email accts, and select lists of apps and music from the one iTunes acct library. The problem is I can only update the software on one of the three iPhones – the primary phone I used to setup the iTunes acct. What is the best solution to manage these devices for software updates, apps? This is probably a common problem with families wanting to share apps and music without realizing the issues created by this approach. As it stands today... the first (primary) iPhone associated with the iTune acct has been updated with the latest software version 5.1.1 and sync'd up with all the apps, music, etc from the one iTune acct, while the other two iPhones are still running on the original software version 4.0.2 and are experiencing problems now. I was advised by AT&T back in January that it would be necessary to setup separate iTunes accts for the second and third iPhones in order to receive system updates. The problem would be how to keep all the apps, etc from being deleted off the second and third phones that were originally loaded from the one iTunes acct. Since this AT&T advice was prior to iCloud coming out, would iCloud be a better solution or at least part of the solution? I really don't yet understand how iCloud works. Hopefully, someone out there can help me?? Please?

What is the best practice for full browser video to achieve the highest quality?

I'd like to get your thoughts on the best way to deliver full-browser (scale to the size of the browser window) video. I'm skilled in the creation of the content but learning to make the most out of Flash CS5 and would love to hear what you would suggest.
Most of the tutorials I can find on full browser/scalable video are for earlier versions of Flash; what is the best practice today? Best resolution/format for the video?
If there is an Adobe guide to this I'm happy to eat humble pie if someone can redirect me to it; I'm using CS5 Production Premium.
I like the full screen video effect they have on the "Sounds of pertussis" web-site; this is exactly what I'm trying to create but I'm not sure what is the best way to approach it - any hints/tips you can offer would be great?
Thanks in advance!

Use the little squares over your video to mask the quality. Sounds of Pertussis is not full screen video, but rather full stage. Which is easier to work with since all the controls and other assets stay on screen. You set up your html file to allow full screen. Then bring in your video (netstream or flvPlayback component) and scale that to the full size of your stage (since in this case it's basically the background) . I made a quickie demo here. (The video is from a cheapo SD consumer camera, so pretty poor quality to start.)
In AS3 is would look something like
import flash.display.Loader;
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.display.Bitmap;
import flash.display.BitmapData;
import flash.ui.Mouse;
import flash.events.Event;
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
import flash.display.StageDisplayState;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
// determine current stage size
var sw:int = int(stage.stageWidth);
var sh:int = int(stage.stageHeight);
// load video
var nc:NetConnection = new NetConnection();
nc.connect(null);
var ns:NetStream = new NetStream(nc);
var vid:Video = new Video(656, 480); // size off video
this.addChildAt(vid, 0);
vid.attachNetStream(ns);
//path to your video_file
ns.play("content/GS.f4v");
var netClient:Object = new Object();
ns.client = netClient;
// add listener for resizing of the stage so we can scale our assets
stage.addEventListener(Event.RESIZE, resizeHandler);
stage.dispatchEvent(new Event(Event.RESIZE));
function resizeHandler(e:Event = null):void
// determine current stage size
    var sw:int = stage.stageWidth;
    var sh:int = stage.stageHeight;
// scale video size depending on stage size
    vid.width = sw;
    vid.height = sh;
// Don't scale video smaller than certain size
    if (vid.height < 480)
    vid.height = 480;
    if (vid.width < 656)
    vid.width = 656;
// choose the smaller scale property (x or y) and match the other to it so the size is proportional;
    (vid.scaleX > vid.scaleY) ? vid.scaleY = vid.scaleX : vid.scaleX = vid.scaleY;
// add event listener for full screen button
fullScreenStage_mc.buttonMode = true;
fullScreenStage_mc.mouseChildren = false;
fullScreenStage_mc.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goFullStage, false, 0, true);
function goFullStage(event:MouseEvent):void
    //vid.fullScreenTakeOver = false; // keeps flvPlayer component from becoming full screen if you use it instead
    if (stage.displayState == StageDisplayState.NORMAL)
        stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN;
    else
        stage.displayState=StageDisplayState.NORMAL;

What is the best way to manage my iPhoto, which is taking up too much space on my MacBook Pro?

What is the best way to manage my iPhoto, which is taking up too much space on my MacBook Pro?
Specifically, I'd like to keep some of my favorite pictures on the laptop while moving the rest to an external hard drive. Is there a way to tag just a few pictures inside an event/album as "favorite", while storing the rest in an EHD, but still keep them connected to the same event/album? I'd like to have just the favorite pictures on the laptop, but when I have the EHD connected, be able to view all my pictures in the same place, and not have to browse through separate hard drives. Ideally, whether or not a picture is designated as "favorite" will determine where it resides.
Is this at all possible?
I have only 7 GB left on my HD and I'm desperately needing a solution!
Thanks!

You need two libraries to do this. One on the external with all your Photos. One on the internal with a subset - your favourites. You do it this way to make backing up easier - that is, back up the library with everything, so you're only backing up one.
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
Now you have two full versions of the Library.
3. On the Internal library, trash the Events/albums/photos you don't want there
Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
Some Notes:
As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using iPhoto Library Manager

What are the best practices for generating an EPS logo from InDesign?

Our costomer is running into technical issues with the logo we sent them, which was exported from Indesign. Images were not embedded and fonts missing. I was able to embed the images and fonts. However, we DO NOT want them to be able to make any text changes. So after exporting an eps, I opened the file in Adobe Illustrator and made all the text outlines. I hope this works. But I just wanted to post the question on what are the best practices for doing this?
The client needs the logo with transparent background, images emebdded and type in outlines. Also, they need some space around the text. When I exported the eps, the file is right up on the edge of the type.

It sounds like you are pretty far from "best practice" with regard to logo design and delivery.
These days, the very use of the EPS format should be considered bad practice, and some other terms in your post, (i.e., 'images,' 'missing fonts'), make it sound like there is not a seasoned logo designer involved.
That said, you probably already got the advice you need to get out of the immediate jam. However, without proper logo design, you and the client will soon be facing other problems. You should be delivering a 100% vector graphic in single-color (black) and corporate-color(s) versions, with no live font data, that has been test-scaled to very small and very large sizes; ensuring it will work at postage-stamp size and on the side of a truck or building, with specific spot color(s) and proportions that will enable it to be offset printed, embroidered and screen-printed on apparel, and cut into signage materials and decals.

Terabyte Plus Libraries - What is the Best Practice?

In my current Aperture library I have 150 gigs and I have only been using it for about a year. Previous to that I used iPhoto for a short time which still has a 60 gig library and previous to that I stored my images in file folders on a windows servers which I have around 500+ gig there. Then there are are those non electronic images which should be scanned in one day.....
My hope was to have import everything into one tool and eventually to have some better organization and management of my images. At the rate I am shooting now it won't be long before I break the terabyte mark and am wondering as I try to pull al these sources together what is the best Practice?
I know I can have more than one library now with Aperture, do folks manage their libraries by themes? Weddings, Family, Commercial, etc? I just picked up a 2 terabyte drive to start moving stuff off my Mac Book but am not sure if I should use the Archive tool to do this or break apart my images into libraries and store them them and just keep a working library on my Mac?
Within Aperture I am using the Project -> Album hierarchy to manage my shoots now as well.
Also, I don't have a ton of video yet, but have started shooting a little, plus have been making slideshows and books now, so I need to start planning for that as well. Just wondering what is the best, most efficient way of large data management with Aperture.
Thanks!

The solution is to avoid the (unfortunately default) Managed Masters and instead use a Referenced Masters Library kept on an internal drive. Back up originals prior to importing and keep Masters off the Library drive. That way the Aperture Library will remain small enough to live on a standard internal drive without overfilling it.
Note that working drives (as opposed to backup-only drives) should not be allowed to exceed ~70% full for ideal speed and stability.
Multiple Libraries is almost always poor images management in a digital world unless all rights to the images, including the right to simply view any image (such as security work), belong exclusively to the client. Usage of multiple Libraries is a big backward step into film-think and very significantly limits the power of digital images management.

What is the best practice to handle JPA methods in JSF app?

I am building a JSF-JPA web app(No EJB).
I have several methods that has JPA QL inside.
Because I have to put those methods inside JSF beans to inject EntityManagerFactory (am I right about this?).
And I do want to separate those methods from regular JSF beans which are used by page authors.
And I may need to use them in different JSF managed beans.
My question here is that what is the best practice to handle that?
I. write a or a few separate JSF Beans and inject them into regular Beans?
II. write a or a few separate JSF Beans and access them into regular Beans using FacesContext?
III. others?
Waiting to hear from you opinions.

You can create named queries on your Entities themselves then just call entityMgr.createNamedQuery("nameOfQuery");
Normally, we put these named queries in the class of the entity which will be returned. This allows for all information pertaining to a given entity and all ways of accessing that entity (except em.find() and stuff, of course) to be in one place. As long as the entity is defined in your persistence.xml file, any named queries which reside on that entity will be available through the EntityManager.
As for the EntityManagerFactory, we normally create an application scope bean which holds the factory itself (because this is a heavy-weight object) and then just get all EntityManager instances from that by injecting this bean into whatever needs it. For example, I might have:
//emfBB is the injected app scope bean which holds the entity manager factory.
private EmfBB emfBB;
private void lookupSomeData()
EntityManager em = this.getEmfBB().getEmf()
I hope this answered your question?

What's the best way to manage iPhoto if you've got two Macs?

Hello. I have a Mac on my desk at home, and now I have an Air that I'm able to carry around with me. I'd like to be able to have the same iPhoto library on both computers. Is that possible?
If not, what are some best practices for managing two iPhoto galleries? How do you make sure new photos on one computer are added to the other gallery? Is there some kind of automator action I can add?
Dave

It's tricky. Iphoto is designed for a single user on a single machine.
If you want to have the same library on two Machines... And to sync chnages...
What do you mean by "Sync".
The general term means when two Libraries (A and B) are compared and files in Library A are copied to Library B, while files in Library B are also copied to Library A so that both Libraries are identical.
This is bi-directional copying and you cannot do this automatically with iPhoto. No Syncing software is capable of parsing the iPhoto Library in this manner. One or both of your Libraries will be damaged if you try this.
You can have uni-directional copying - files in Library A are copied to Library B - this is essentially backing up. Obviously you can also copy from Library B to Library A.
The nearest you can get to syncing is to use iPhoto Library Manager to move files/Albums/Events plus associated metadata between Libraries. This process cannot be automated.

What is the best practice to protect coldfusion administrator login page

Hi all,
Can someone suggest what is the best practice to protect the administrator login? At the moment, there is only the normal administrator page password to protect. It seems like not very secure especially when the application is on the internet.
Regards,
Bubblegum.

You can protect the page with file system level privs. Setup a new virtual server that maps to a seperate copy of /cfide (and remove /admin and /adminapi from the other cfide folder your internet sites use). Limit what IP addresses can hit /cfide.
We run multiple instances, so we connect directly to each instance to manage it. And those ports aren't accessable on the internet. To top it off, we have an ISAPI ReWrite rule that sends a 404 if you try /cfide/administrator or adminapi.
If you're using CF8, you can set it up so it requires a specific username instead of a generic name.

What's the best way to manage Apple IDs for multiple devices?

Hi,
We have
a shared Macbook air
a shared iPad
my iPhone
his iPhone
We want to put one ID on the Macbook and iPad that we can use to have the same iMessage on both and that we can put a card on and use in the iTunes store etc.
We also want to have our own iMessages on our iPhones, plus be able to use the account with the cards on them to purchase and share across devices...
What's the best way to manage them all?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
iTunes is straight forward, just use the same ID on all of them.
What exactly do you want to see in messages on the Mac and iPad, messages combined from each of your phones or a different account just for both of you.
You should think about what you want in calendars, contacts etc, on your shared devices.

What are the best practices to migrate VPN users for Inter forest mgration?

It depends on a various factors. There is no "generic" solution or best practice recommendation. Which migration tool are you planning to use?
Quest (QMM) has a VPN migration solution/tool.
ADMT - you can develop your own service based solution if required. I believe it was mentioned in my blog post.
