When should the System State be explicitly backed up?

I'm trying to find out what is covered by the BMR and System State options in DPM 2012 R2. According to the below blog post BMR includes the System State. But what does the System State include? Would you ever need to back it up if you've included BMR
in the PG?
By default the BMR will protect the "critical system data" According to the Microsoft definition -> critical data =  System State and C drive and all other drivers that contain system data directories (Program files).

Hi
Systemstate includes:

BMR ist an additional Option which gives you the possibility to Recovery the Systemstate (which is included in BMR) on a different Hardware

  • Write behind cache, DB down, when should the system stop taking new data in

    Hello:
    We are trying to use Coherence for our custom ESB, which is brokering payloads of various size between consumer and provider applications.
    Before Coherence, stopping our DB meant organization-wide outage for critically important business services.
    Since we have at least 40G of RAM in production environment, we believe that our app
    can use Coherence write-behind option for tolerating at least several hours worth of DB outage.
    We are currently using a near cache backed by distributed cache in write-behind mode.
    9 business service JVMs (storage enabled=false) use 30 storage enabled JVMs.
    IMPORTANT: We need to create an automated alerting facility determining when
    amount of unsaved data reaches critical level since DB goes down. This alert should help us decide when our application stops accepting inbound traffic.
    It is hard to use QueueSize parameter for that because our payload memory footprint can vary from 1KB to 3MB.
    We do not expire any entries in order to enable support queries against the cache during DB outage.
    Our experiments with trying various flavors of overflow-scheme resulted in OutOfMemoryError, therefore
    we decided to implement RAM-only cache as a first step.

    Good info ... I feel like I need to restate my original question along with a couple of new questions caused by the discussion above.
    Q1. Does Coherence evict 'dirty', or 'queued', or 'unsaved' objects for cache configuration provided above?
    The answer should be 'NO', otherwise Coherence is unsafe to use as a system of record,
    it should not just drop unsaved information on the floor.
    Q2. What happens to the front tier of the near+partitioned write behind cache described above when amount of unsaved data exceeds max cache capacity defined via high-units?
    I would expect that map.put starts throwing exceptions: cache storage is full, so it should not accept more data
    Q3. How can I determine a moment when amount of dirty data in bytes(!), not in objects, hits 85% of
    max allowed cache capasity configured in bytes (using high-units param and BINARY calculator).
    'DirtyUnits' counter can probably be built with some lower-level Coherence API. Can we use
    this API?
    Please, understand, that we purchased Coherence for reliability, for making our
    system independent from short DB outages, for keeping our business services up
    and running when DBA need some time for admin operations like rebuilding an index.
    Performance benefits are secondary and are not as obvious for our system which
    uses primary keys only and has a well-tuned co-located Oracle back-end.
    We simply cannot put Coherence to production unless we prove that Coherence
    can reliably hold the data and give us information about approaching crisis
    (the cache full of unsaved data).
    If possible, forward this message to Cameron Purdy,
    who was presenting Coherence to our team several moths ago.

  • Locale Input changes on Mac OS X Lion when changing the view state

    On Mac OS X Lion, the following code results of changing the locale input when changing the view state. If you set the input locale to Pynin, then run the application, then click on "go to the test 2", the input locale changes back to english. This is obviously not the correct behavior (the input locale should stay the same as defined on the computer).

    We bought a new prepaid phone on 10/5/14 at a Verizon store.  Had an existing phone number transfered and the phone can not be activatde. When will the system be updated? We have lost 2 days of service and now cannot use the original phone due to moving service to Verizon.

    The exact same thing has happened to me! The customer service reps keep saying there is nothing they can do until their system upgrades are complete and they can't tell me when that will be! I need my phone number back!!! Somebody please help with this issue!

  • Can I specify the bank account when uploading the bank statement?

    Currently when I use FF.5 to upload the bank statement, SAP deteremine the the bank G/L account to do posting accoring to the bank and account information in the bank statement. Do we have other choice? Like, no matter with the bank information in the bank statement, we can specify the account manually when uploading the bank statement?

    Hi,
    No you cannot specify the G/L accounts manually while uploading the bank statement. They are derived from the config done in Fin Acc > Bank Acc > Bus Tr > Payt tr > EBS > Make global sett....

  • How should the DOCTYPE statement appear when saving as XML?

    This seems so trivial, but I cannot figure it out.
    When I save a Frame file as XML, the DOCTYPE statement is written as
    <?DOCTYPE ..... ?>
    instead of
    <!DOCTYPE ..... >
    I noticed this because Frame exports the content of empty table cells as the nobreaking space entity. When I try to open the XML file in a browser, the browser cannot parse the nobreaking space entity, even if I include its definition in the ?DOCTYPE statement. Changing the DOCTYPE statement to <!DOCTYPE ... > makes the ENTITY definition visible to the browser.
    What am I missing?
    Thanks,
    Van

    Van,
    I tried that document and got the expected and correct <!DOCTYPE declaration.
    I'm at a loss to know what to suggest. This will not be anything that can be set in maker.ini because there are no circumstances where a processing instruction should replace the real DOCTYPE declaration.
    This is what my FrameMaker 9 produced:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE Chapter SYSTEM "file:///C:/Program%20Files/Adobe/Adobe%20Technical%20Communication%20Suite%202/Adobe%20F rameMaker%209/structure/xml/Book/app_xml/Book.DTD" [

  • How to know the System State in java

    Hi
    I would like to know ,is there a way to get the System status in java, like whether System is idle or any browser is opened or any application is running?
    this information is required to run the screensaver as we know Screen saver will run when System is idle.
    This is very Urgent
    Thank U
    Dharma

    You cannot get the systems status without running something.
    Then when you run something it will say, something is running.
    You cannot implement this functionality in Java.
    You may be able to get this information in JNI but you will need to have a good low level understanding to do it.
    I would suggest you write a Windows screensaver (there should be examples on the web) and then have it run a Java application when it is active.

  • When will the United States region receive 10.5.A.0.230

    I know that that the mods may not know when the updates are pushed to the various markets but I'm having a hard time believe that you cannot contact your counterparts in engineering to get the approximate date when it will be pushed to the US Region.
    It got released on May 21st 2014. 43 days ago.
    It then got pushed to the UK on the 29th of May. Then to Israel on the 9th of June.
    So again someone in your engineering/IT/Developer department knows when it will be pushed to the various markets. Why can you ask one of them, and then post in the forum? Is it a super secret?
    Again there is no carrier involved in this push... it's a direct update from SONY so again you guys really should know.
    Is it so hard to email Fredrik Ekstrand, Head of Software Product Management, and just ask when the United States region will receive the update?

    Good luck. Sony cant get the update out and their call center idiots actually told me, "if everyone gets updated, the servers will get overloaded." Makes me wonder what kind of **bleep** servers they are using and how every other company out there has better ones.

  • Until when does the System down for maintenance last??!!

    I need to check the serial no. before Purchasing i pad and the system is still not available for more than 2 hours,, when can I access the web page to check it out?

    I think it varies with different countries.   At the top of your support page should be a yellow advice band through which you can check your local situation.
    The latest maintenance in particular, has been a very long one; (5 hours in the UK).

  • SD Text Determination - When does the system determine a text?

    Dear Expert,
    1. I would like to know when the system determines a header text in billing, for example,
    - when a billing is created
    - when a billing is changed
    etc.
    2. If a billing is already created, is it possible to have the system re-determined a text?
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi
    The text determination takes place essentially at the time of creation of billing doc. At the time of change in the billing doc one can manually go in the document and make the changes in the header text. I dont think there is an option like the one in pricing where in one can redetermine the prices.

  • User Menu Image disappear when update the system menu

    Hi all,
    We created an user menu after the system menu Sales A/R, with an image as an icon.
    And also we changed some of the system menu description.
    But the problem is when you change some information from the Admistration menu, the system menu is updated and all the changes we made in the systems menu description and the image of our user menu, disappear.
    The system menu description return to the oficial description and our image isn't showed after the system menu update.
    Thanks,
    Fran.

    Dear Francislaine,
    There is a very good example which might be helpful in this context; given by SAP which is installed while installing SDK. The sample project is stored in the followng default folder :
    C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One SDK\Samples\COM UI DI\VB.NET\UIDIBasicApp
    In th above sample project the basic need for adding images to the menu has been addressed.
    PS: Would it be possible to change the system menu description before adding the image to the custom menu?
    Regards
