What standards to you follow for moving processes into production?

During our last audit, one of the findings is that we should not have the OWB production repository open to all of the developers at all times. As a result of this finding, we allow the developers to develop in the OWB development repository. We have not yet established a promotion process that we are completely comfortable with. What processes do other ogranizations follow that enable us to lock down the production environment and yet provide a mechanism that processes can be promoted into production?

Hi,
Its pretty easy, once your development completed;
1) export to mdl file (OWB metadata) the ne or modified objects
2) create a generic OMBPlus script that will perform all required tasks
-register you locations
-deploy connectors, objects, process flow & perform the required grants
We have been doing this for over 4 years now... The Dba can't be more pleased as they just need to execute a single script and send us the log file.
Now creating that generic script is not easy but its worth it. We have close to 20 owb environment. Every time a new project starts, we trash one environment, put up out "template dbs" (sources & target) and run OMPPlus which will deploy every single object and perform the grants, etc... w/o any supervision.
BTW in a multiple environment situation(like ours), the script is also used to perform the retrofits!
Regards,

  • What could be the reason for Crawl process to take long time or get in to a hung state.

    Hi All,
    What could be the reason for Crawl process to take long time or get in to a hung state? Is it something also related to the DB Server resources crunch? Does this lead to Index file corruption?
    What should be the process to be followed when index file is corrupted? How do we come to know about that?
    Thanks in Advance.

    "The crawl time depends on what you are crawling -- the number of items, the size of the items, the location of the items. If you have a lot of content that needs to be crawled, it will take much time".

  • What tools do you use for automating builds?

    Hi all Build Engineers,
    what systems do you use for automating builds - do you use your own tools, or some opensource project?
    If it is something public, which one it is, and what were the reasons to chose it?
    We are thinking about using the Hudson system (http://hudson.dev.java.net/) for our developers, but would like to hear from other RE groups about their experiences too.
    Thanks,

    Tinderbox is another build monitoring tool. It does not show detailed steps of a build cycle. It only shows the final result : success or failed. But it can display build output for multiple platforms on the same page.
    This is how the tinderbox build grid will look --> http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=SeaMonkey
    Detail Info -->

    Tinderbox can be connected to Bonsai -->
    It is a tool that shows you who checked in what, lets you perform queries on the contents of a CVS archive; get a list of checkins, see what checkins have been made by a whom, or on a given CVS branch, or in a particular time period.

  • What are the configuration steps for cheque process

    hi,
    sap gurus,
    what are the steps for cheque process if our customer wanted to pay by the mode of cheque.
    regards,
    balaji.t
    09990019711.

    Hi,
    Kindly go to OVFD where in you will have to create a new payment procedure if it's not there in standard SAP. Then, you will have to assign this new payment guarantee procedure in customer in sales area data>billing document screen. As far as standard SAP is concerned you will be able to assign the payement by cards in customer master, but for DD process I think you will have to create it.

  • What application do you use for extra/multimedia keys on the keyboard?

    Just curious on what applications there are available for all these extra keys manufacturers keep placing on keyboards, thankfully my keyboard only has a few extra and they aren't in the way. I've been using LinEAK for a while now but it doesn't seem to be maintained any more so I was wondering if there are any better alternatives.

    con wrote:I use Xmodmap to get the keys to work...then just assign them actions throuhg the global shortcuts in applications
    If youre not gettign any codes, dmesg or xev, turn of the computer switch to the PS/2 port youre using USB to connect the keyboard, USB hid driver hasnt got the functionality to give those extra keys scancodes and the devs dont seem willing to do anything about it...
    Follow the wiki hotkyes instructions and you cant go wrong, someone posted link to them earlier.
    Not wanting to sound rude, but if you had even bothered to read the thread you would have seen that the keys are working fine with xbindkeys, it's the process of autostarting xbindkeys with openbox that doesn't work.
    However, I've now started using the built in keybind function in openbox, though for some reason I can't execute mpc commands (ie: mpc stop), it just won't work. Instead I have to use Sonata (ie: sonata stop), could the reason be that mpc outputs info while Sonata does not when you use those commands?
    EDIT: It wasn't, I added the --no-status switch but it still won't work with mpc.
    Actually i read every post in this thread before posting, sorry if came of sounding mean (sv:elak) or something. Thought you just wanted to know what apps ppl were using to get multimedia keys to work (alot of ppl seem to be having problems with this), didnt realize that you wanted help. Maybe choose a better title if you dont want too confuse ppl like me. Again sorry:)

  • What is the best way for email processing setup on CRM 2013 (on- premises) Set up?

    We need to notify customers via CRM 2013 for some activities.
    I searched regarding email processing set up, and i found two options:
    1. via outlook
    2.  Via Exchange Server.
    Tried through email router (exchange server), but it requires exchange online or SMTP for outgoing profile.
    I  do have exchange on premise setup, I am not sure about SMTP option.
    My queries are:
    > Can we configure Exchange server to work as Exchange Online?
    > what other option, I can try for email Processing?
    looking for your suggestions...
    Thanks in advance!

    If you have Exchange onPremise, then you should be able to use the email router or server side sync in combination with CRM workflows (to generate the email).  This is a fairly common scenario.  You do not need Exchange Online.

  • What is the best option for my process

    Hi Gurus Can any one guide me which is the best available option for my business process.
    in our client process We have a Final Product(say A). and two Vendors (say Vendor1 and vendor2)
    This Final Product is made up of 3 other parts Lets say B,C and D.
    So The client buys Product B and Product C from the Vendor1 and Product D from Vendor2
    The vendor1 supplies the both the parts(A and B) to Vendor2.
    The Vendor2 Takes the Parts B, C and Joins with Part D and deliver the final product A to the client.
    There is no assembly cost for Vendor2- he charges for only part D.
    Can anyone tell which is the best available option for my client.
    Please help me ASAP
    Thanks

    Hi Amar,
    There are many other factors that you need to take into consideration to define best approach for the process.
    You have to know what type of control you want to have of the "production" of the product "A". Who is the owner of the components B and C while they are at vendor 2.
    Who is the payer and how are you going to receive invoices of vendor 1 (you receive invoices for components according to the quantity of product A you receive in your company, or you receive invoices for all B and C received at vendor 2??)
    Its no easy to give you a feedback without more information.

  • HT2613 I'm currently in the restore process, and it seems to take forever. The indicator on my Mac shows a crosshatched bar, but says nothing about % completed. What is a rough timeline for this process?

    I'm currently restoring an IPod classic ... 160 GB, which is 5th generation, I believe.
    It seems to be taking forever. What is the rough length of time for this process?

    Restore a 160GB iPod Classic, should not take more than an hour, if your iPod Hardsik is healthy, and you connect to the USB2.0 port and not to the keyboard USB port. If you are using a Macbook, then only one of the USB port is fast enough for the slow iPod Classic.
    However, if you are connecting to the correct USB port, and still having problems Restoring or Syncing, do the iPod Disk Diagnostic, refer to this outstanding post by tt2.
    It wont fix your problem, but save a lot of frustration, in troubleshooting.
    Have a nice day!

  • HT4341 from the apple travel adapter kit what adapter do you use for thailand

    from the apple travel adapter kit what adapter do i use for thailand

    I've used Apple a few times in the past for 4x6s (with iPhoto) and was really happy with the quality. There are other things about the service that frustrate me though. The shipping time was all over the place. Sometimes it would only take a week or two, other times over a month. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get Order Prints to work for iPhoto or Aperture anymore, so I'm looking for an alternative as well. Something that has an Aperture plug-in would be extra cool, if that exists...
    In the meantime, I've just been printing at Wal-Mart or the local camera shop (when they have a sale). The quality isn't as good -- less definition in the prints -- but the order is always ready to pick-up within a couple of hours at the most (which beats getting no prints at all through Apple's service). And the nice thing is, the pictures are printed and boxed in the order they're uploaded. None of this "we print the smallest files first, as they download" silliness from Apple that causes you to have to sort all of your photos again while referencing the images on your computer if you want to put them in chronological order. Does Apple really expect me to believe their printers are just waiting to print my order the split second each image is downloaded? There's no staging process involved whatsoever? Give me a break. I love Apple, but things like this are so backwards from the whole "it just works" mantra that they love to use. Sorry for the rant! I'm a little frustrated with Apple's printing services at the moment (as I'm sure you can tell).
    Anyway, you can always give your local Wal-mart a shot. Just do a small order and see how it turns out.
