Where 's the type of System Landscape Directory in Technical System ?

Hi experts:
when I configured the name server, I create a Technical System in sld which type should be System Landscape Directory . But this time i faced urgent problem, i can not find the type of System Landscape Directory in the Technical System Type!!
The valid type of Technical System are Web AS Java ,Web AS ABAP,Standalone,Third-Party. where's my System Landscape Directory type ????
abap and java engine installed in one server, and one system , XI also installed.
how can i solve this problem,how can i get back my System Landscape Directory type?

I think i solved my problem.
In Landscapes,I create a NWDI system , and a step is "Add systems to landscape" and there is a button named "New Hosted System" .Here ,I can create SLD system that I wanted.

Where does the output of System.out.write go??

My question might be silly... but i couldn't find out the exact answer anywhere..
Where does the output of System.out.write go??!! I am not getting anything in the console.. below is the snippet!
public class TestWriteApp {
public static void main(String[] args) {
char a = 'c';
System.out.write((byte)a);
PEACE,
Sandeep

Is goes to the console. But a write of a byte isn't the way to see it.
Try something that will show up easier like
System.out.println("Hello World");What OS are you using? Are you using a command window? Or a GUI like Netbeans?

Where all the Parameter ID (system's default and customize) are maintained?

Hi,
Can someone tell where all the Parameter ID's i.e. whether system's default or customized are maintained in the System?
Thanks.
Edited by: Lucky on May 18, 2009 9:32 AM

Hi All,
My Question was where can we see the various Parameter ID's permitted in the system for defaulting the field values in SAP and what and all Parameter values are permitted!
Is there any Transaction Code or Table available for checking all the existing Parameter ID's and their values?
Can we also create the Customized Parameter ID's with values in SAP?
Thanks.

Using ActiveX to access DirectDraw - where are the Type libraries?

Hi all. I am trying to poll the monitor to find out when information is written to the screen for a psychophysics exeriment. I have seen the discussion at:
http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Implenting-WaitForVerticalBlank/m-p/432112?query.id=74374#M212084
but I am using Labview 9 with 64bit Windows 7, and don't know how to specify the DirectDraw libraries to an automation refnum on the front panel. The previous posts indicated you need to select DIRECTLib.I_dxj_DirectDraw, but I can't see it. I tried browsing and pointing to DDraw.dll in the system files, but the reference created when I wired it to the Automation Open subVI was not recognised by the invoke_node subVI.
Does anybody know where to look for the relevant files with Labview 9?
thanks for any help

Please note the 64 bit Windows reference!!
I'm not sure about the state of Direct-anything in post Windows XP but I have some doubts that it is still the prefered/recommended way to access those interfaces. As such the DLLs to support these interfaces may not all have been ported to Windows 7 and especially 64 bit. Being an API that sits in fact very close to the hardware, it is both a major hassle to port such libraries as well as likely a requirement to have native libraries in the system to even have a remote chance for them to work.
To go down this path you will certainly have to dig into the state of DirectX on modern OS, and especially their 64 bit variants. The DLLs from 2005 you found on some site (I would really very much hesitate to put DLLs from such sites on my computer in any way) certainly won't be adaptable to your 64 Bit Windows system, and most likely won't work for anything Vista or newer either. DirectX was way to close to hardware to have much chance of staying operational when moving DLLs to other Windows versions than what they were designed for.

IPhone 6: Where's the status bar in landscape mode?

I just got the iPhone 6 (I believe iOS 8.1) and my only problem is that it removes the status bar in when in landscape mode. I find it extremely annoying that I can no longer see the time, monitor my battery life, check whether if I'm even receiving a signal, etc. when I'm using apps such as Safari or Notes in landscape mode. Is there any way to get the status bar back like in previous software versions? So far, I hate having to switch to portrait mode, using the pull down menu, or pressing the home button just to see it...

Same here - I returned my original, same problem on the second one, and same problem on my son's phone. I called Apple tech months ago, got to a senior supervisor who assured me he'd get back to me, but never did.

Where is the support for system upgrade malfunctions? I lost PDF options

and I am getting no resolution to the issue. My computer was fine before the most recent upgrade. I even tried to download the 10.5.7 combo upgrade several times after it was suggested. The download not only took forever but I had to restart it several times after it timed out. Once it finally completed and I installed it, I still am having the same problems including no PDF print options and my Pages keeps quitting.
What is going on? MY COMPUTER AND ALL ITS SOFTWARE WAS FINE before the most recent upgrades.

What is going on? MY COMPUTER AND ALL ITS SOFTWARE WAS FINE before the most recent upgrades.
This might not actually have been the case. One of the top reasons for an upgrade failing is for there to be some kind of subtle underlying problems that the user might not yet have been aware of. For that reason, it is strongly recommended that you repair the boot drive and repair permissions before every system update.
The other likely possibility with 10.5.7 is bad RAM, as it seems to be picky about that. However, bad RAM would not show up as a lack of PDF print options or a single app crashing, so that makes it unlikely in my eyes.
Also, *never ever* restart your computer in the middle of an update, unless you are reasonably sure that it has really, truly frozen. If such a thing does happen, you should download the combo updater rather than using Software Update and try that. Of course, if you have installed the update without doing the preemptive diagnostics, you should go and repair the hard drive before trying to update again.

A realistic assessment of your experiences of hardware needed for the type of editing I do please.

Introduction:
I apologise for the length of this post but from experience of reading here, I'm working on the principle of the more I explain about myself now, the less anyone willing to help me will have to ask later.
I have lurked around this forum on and off for a few years, read the various threads in the FAQ section, particularly PPBM5 and What PC to build thread and other related topics around what system to build. I have found them very useful and in particular have enjoyed reading about Harm Millaard's experiences First Ideas for a new system. For about about 12 months I've been delaying upgrading my PC but in Mr Millard's latest updates on his PPBM6 site he talks about new systems and provides a link to Intel's time line which suggests they are in no rush to replace the i739xx series CPU chip - which has I believe amongst other things 2 cores disabled. Normally bitter experience has taught me not to rush out and buy the latest technology but let others "test" it first and then benefit from reduced prices as that model is replaced. However, it now seems like last years technology is going to remain as this years technology and probably the first 2 quarters at least of next year and, if anything, the price of the i739xx series is at best staying at it's existing launch price or even rising. So it's time to take the plunge for me and upgrade.
My current hardware for editing:
I started with Premier 6.5 after I bought it as part of a bundle with a Matrox RTX 10 card - one of the most temperamental pieces of hardware I've had the misfortune to work with. I later upgraded to Premiere Pro 1.5 and edited with that using a Pentium 4 2.6 (overclocked to 3.2), 3 hard drives (no raid) and 4G of memory. The video footage used was avi recorded using a Canon MVX 30i and Panasonic NVGS27 and now I've added the Casio Exilim EX -FC100 (mpeg format) and a Panasonic HDC S90 (AVCHD).
My PC coped with the editing I did with avi footage but couldn't handle AVCHD format and this convinced me to upgrade to Premiere Pro CS5.5. At the same time I switched to editing on a Dell XPS M1530 (Centrino duo chip) - I upped the memory to 4GB, put Windows 7 64 bit home edition on and replaced the existing hard drive with a faster one. In addition I use a SATA Quickport duo attached to my laptop via an eSATA card. However, either the Quickport, eSATA card or XPS is extremely temperamental - I never see two external hard drives, 50% of the time see 1 external drive or none at all - when that happens I edit around it doing things I can with just the one internal drive - but this problem is not my question.
The type of editing i do:
I know people usually say around here not to try editing on laptops and believe me, I understand why, but using this setup I have been able to edit lots of videos - see here for examples of the type of editing I currently do:
http://www.youtube.com/user/PathfinderPro
The equipment test videos place the biggest strain on the hardware when editing. And, to do this editing I have to convert my AVCHD footage in to it's YouTube format before editing and even after I've done that it can be tediously slow to edit and playback even with premiere set to play at 1/4 normal quality. To convert the AVCHD footage to the YouTube format I edit in has to be done over many nights.
Now I am not a professional, I typically edit with up to 4 tracks of video with additional tracks for titles and my target audience is YouTube - which is why I can get away without editing in my prefered option of native AVCHD video format. However, I'm tired of all the waiting, stuttering, and many many days and hours of converting videos into a format I can use so I'm looking to upgrade. My problem is though I'm uncertain what path to take. The PPBM results are dominated by overclocked chips, and whilst the motherboard make and model is listed, the hard disks used, graphic card makes and models and memory modules are not. This is not a criticism of the PPMB tables (big thank you to Bill Gehrke & Harm Millaard for taking the time and effort to pull this much information together) but for me, I am not interested in being in the top 1000 in the world, nor overclocking like mad, and having had horror experiences of using matrox products and compatibility and stability issues with other hardware I'm more interested in compatability and practicality than speed when deciding what to build. I've also read the threads about marvel controllers, dual and quad channel memory support, the pro's and cons of SSD or standard drives, raid setups, the heat problems with overclocking the newer ivy bridge chips and general build advice etc so I'm not coming here without having done some reading first.
The type of system I'm thinking of:
So far based on what I've read here, I've come to the conclusion - but I'm open to suggestion:
- Chip - regrettably due to the cost and unlikely successor anytime soon - a 39xx (with appropriate cooler) because I want to edit in native AVCHD which seems to require the warrior type chip as opposed to the "economical" build regardless of what my target audience is and this suggests
- X79 motherboard (which must have an old PCI slot such as the Asus Sabertooth and which has room for the cooler I'm considering). As I will be carrying over my old terretec DMX 6 fire 24/96 soundcard - all my videos have their audio mastered in Audition using this card - best piece of advice I read was the audience will watch a bad video with good sound editing but not the other way round)
- 4 hard drives plus additional hard drive for operating system using onboard raid controllers (not sure whether the operating system drive will be WD caviar black or SSD and can't justify cost of external raid controller for either my type of use or number of hard drives being used)
- Video card - I can now buy a GTX 580 for less than the 670 - so not sure on the card especially based on Harm Millards observations that memory bandwith seems to be as important as CUDA cores
- Case - I have an Akasa 62 case with room for 5 hard drives - I won't be exceeding that, and if I overclock it will only be by a little so is it really necessary to replace it for a Tower Case - although I would prefer a case with a front connection for esata so I may have to change the case regardless
- Maximum memory 32G - so is it necessary to upgrade to windows 7 professional?
- Power source - I'll work out when I've decided on my components.
Help please:
For me it's video source/dictated software chosen and hardware/audience(youtube) dictates format edited in. As I don't intend to change my camcorders format (AVCHD or mpeg) in the next couple of years and I'm not interested in having the "fastest" system around what I'm really interested in learning is:
what system setups people use now for doing similar editing to me
what make/models of the component parts in your system work well together
and if you do have a bottle neck in terms of hardware, where is it and what hardware would you change to (not a dream model change, just a practical and realistic one)
I have deliberately not given a budget for the changes I'm intending because budget should not be the deciding factor in determining what I "need" to upgrade to for the "type of editing I do" - especially bearing in mind I've got by so far (admitedly at a tortoise pace) with by todays standards a standard spec laptop. Basically I don't want a Rolls Royce to go shopping at Wallmart but I'm tired of walking there and carrying everything back by hand!
Thank you very much for any help / experiences people can share.

Thank you both for your prompt and helpful replies.
Mr Millaard, regarding your excellent article Planning and Building an NLE system, I have read it a couple of times now and it was your article which finally convinced me the time was now to upgrade but within it you said for good reason "Initial choice of CPU: i7-39xx with the intention to overclock to 4.6 - 4.8 GHz", hence my uncertainty about the CPU to use. I have seen a video you posted here - I think it was based on your cats (which I incidently enjoyed) so working on the editing done there (but not remembering if you mentioned what video format you used) and others who have mentioned many pro's for the i7-39xx I was leaning towards that - but I'm financially relieved at least - if the i3770 will do, although now with the possible recommendation by JEShort01 (sorry not sure of the forum etiquette for use of names) of the 2600K overclocked I'm a little bit back in the position of which is more suitable especially with the update to the i3770 being nearer than i7-39xx. This still makes me lean towards the i7-39xx.
Regarding the editing, the match play you can see on the channel is indeed 1 camera basic edits - multiple titles used to provide the score board. However, the coaching videos use mulitple cameras - 3 to 4 sometimes (another reason for upgrading to CS5.5 for the multi cam editing support) and the equipment testing video can use 3 or 4 tracks layered on top of each other other with each track having opacity settings and multiple motion effects and titles with occasional keying video effects added. For example this video at approx 2 mins 50 and 5 mins 10 seconds.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T1E5T7xo57c&list=PL577F7AB5E31FC5E9&index=13&feature=plpp_v ideo
Monitor wise I use dual monitor setup. My laptop screen and I link out to an LG M2394 D for widescreen and I sometimes use an old Neovo F-419 for 3 / 4 editing. I won't be using more monitors than 2. If the 580 drops a bit more I'll probably go for that - although I'll have to make sure it's size isn't an issue for the motherboard combo setup. Interestingly there is a thread shown on the forum home page which discusses the 570 vs the 660ti and the opinion was go with the 660ti which surprised me a bit.
Windows 7 professional it is then - I should have known that too - apologises for asking a question already asked.
"Accepted, your correct criticism of the lacking hardware info on the PPBM5 website. That is the overriding reason that for the new site http://ppbm7.com/ we want to use Piriform Speccy .xml results to gather more, more accurate and more detailed hardware info."
No criticism intended Mr Millaard - more an observation and I really look forward to that evolution with PPBM7. I'm assuming the .xml results will use pre populated drop down lists people can select their hardware from - that way you can control and ensure consistent entries - downside being the work required by you to populate the lists in the first place and maintain them.
Thanks again for your help but I'm still unsure a bit about the CPU and video card though.

Can't find the type wsrc_runtime_attr_varray for using the wwrc_api API

hi,
I manage to build a custom search portlet in PL SQL that can search for items and filter on their attributes.
everything works lovely and I'm at the final stage : performing the search !
I plan to use the wwsrc_api.item_search procedure and specify attributes with the
wwsrc_api.specify_attributes.
(see the doc on > http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/html/plsqldoc/pldoc1014/wwsrc_api.html#procedure-specify_attributes )
The problem is when calling teh specify_attibutes procedure, I can't declare the last (but not the least) parameter. It's type is wsrc_runtime_attr_varray and I can't find it anywhere in any schemas of my DB.
here is the signature of the procedure :
procedure specify_attributes(
p_id in number,
p_siteid in number default wwsbr_site_db . shared_siteid,
p_value in varchar2,
p_operator in varchar2 default contains_all,
p_datatype in varchar2 default data_type_text,
p_in_out_attr_varray in out nocopy wwsrc_runtime_attr_varray
My question is : where is the type wsrc_runtime_attr_varray ?
any clues ?

hi sebastien,
I've some troubles when performing a search using the "specify_attributes" procedure
I get the SEARCH_FAILURE_EXCEPTION when i try to search items with an attribute.
The search works well without calling it.

The iPad is here, where is the new OS for the iPhone now?

Where is the new operating system for iPhone to go with the iPad?

My critiques of the iPad (in case Apple is listening)
1) NAME
iPad? Didn't Apple do research to see that iPad was already a skit on SNL for feminine hygiene products? Let the non-stop mocking begin. Cancer research firm Enero 6 Corp. owns the domain iPad.com. iSlate is a much cooler name and Apple owns the domain iSlate.com according to MacWorld.
2) LACK OF BUILT-IN iPHONE
If Apple wanted the iPad to be revolutionary, perhaps building the iPhone into the hardware would have made amazing jumps over other tablets and readers.
3) MARRIAGE WITH AT&T
Apple didn't learn from the disaster of marrying AT&T and are likely continuing that exceptionally short sighted relationship, limiting customer base and interest since millions simply loathe AT&T - and with great passion - and will not leave their carriers.
4) TWO SEPARATE DATA PLANS FOR iPAD/iPHONE USERS
Continuing with number three, Apple locks the iPad so that you must pay for wifi service. Is that in addition to your iPhone or part of the same package? Most likely different since AT&T charges per unit on the iPhone. Who really wants to pay for two different data plans to have an iPhone and iPad? I guess that's genius on Apple's part, they sell two items, though is there a kickback from AT&T for the data plans? Again, Apple limits their product line only to people willing to pay for one or possibly two data plans with one provider of service.
5) MISSING FEATURES
Camera/iSight, iPhone, iWork & iLife. If they're going to market this as great for travel, why not include these functional applications so people can do work while taking the commuter train from NYC to Boston or DC?
What else am I missing?

You do not have permission to view the System Landscape Directory.

Hello there,
When I accessed my SLD from portal, it took me to the page but kept saying:
- You do not have permission to view the System Landscape Directory. Minimum required: UME role with permission com.sap.lcr.LcrUser and J2EE role LcrUser. See the SLD Post-Installation Guide for details
- SLD not configured; configure the SLD in Administration first.
I searched on these forums for the above error. Got some results, but nothing really substantial that has helped/fixed my problem.
I also read a bit on SLD from the pdf file named: System Landscape
Directory of SAP NetWeaver 2004s
I also worked on the security roles and actions to individual
users or user groups like for ex: the above pdf file advised I map the security roles from Visual Administrator, to the created roles in the portal. I've done that too. Like create a user group: 'SAP_SLD_ADMINISTRATOR' and create a user role corresponding to it, which would be: 'LcrAdministrator'
Then, I went to visual administrator, and clicked on 'Assign User Groups to Roles'
Even after this, I tried to access the SLD from portal: It is still giving me the same error I mentioned above in bold italics.
Can somebody please help me how to fix this issue?
Thanks
Dino.

Graham:
Thank you very much for making the effort to reply to my query.
But, it still hasnt solved my problem yet.. for some reason even though I followed your instructions and did what you advised.
I have attached a screenshot of my Visual Administrator screen that you advised me to modify/change.
Here it is: http://img166.imageshack.us/img166/2259/screenshot002co1.jpg
After I made the changes, I restarted the J2EE server and went to my portal SLD page: [http://org-x:50000/sld]
Tried authenticating usernames: LcrAdministrator and Administrator.
Both attempts resulted in the same error show below:
- You do not have permission to view the System Landscape Directory. Minimum required: UME role with permission com.sap.lcr.LcrUser and J2EE role LcrUser. See the SLD Post-Installation Guide for details
- SLD not configured; configure the SLD in Administration first.
I am wondering, if you would have another workaround regarding this issue, can you please let me know?
Thanks
Dino.

Where is the system directory of JDeveloper 10.1.2.1?

In JHeadstart 10g for ADF Installation Guide, it says the followings:
If you want to be able to use JHeadstart Designer Generator: in <JHeadstartHome>\config\jdevaddins you will also find a file named migration.xml. This file must be copied to the system directory of JDeveloper, for example: <JDeveloperHome>\jdev\system10.1.2.0.0.1811. On Linux this directory is in the home directory of the user that is running JDeveloper: $HOME/jdevhome/system10.1.2.0.0.1811. The exact name of this directory depends on the build number of JDeveloper.
But, there is no directory like <JDeveloperHome>\jdev\system10.1.2.0.0.1811 in JDeveloper 10g(Version 10.1.2.1, build 1913) New Aug 2005.
Where is it?

You have to start JDev 10.1.2.1 once before the
system directory is created under the /jdev
directory. The name will be something like
system10.1.2.1.0.1913.

You are right.

Doubts in System Landscape Directory

Hello All,
I got some basic doubts in SLD.
Why do we need to store the information about the installed products and to be installed products in software catalog?
And, what is this techncal system?
After reading few help sites, what I understand is the following:
For example SAP is a product and CRM etc are the software components. We create the technical system for this product like for client 100 we create a technical system and for client 200 we create another technical system. And we give some logical names, called business sytems, to these technical systems.
My second question is, why do we need to create all these information(the information in SLD)? Why cant we directly create messages types, message interfaces etc and configure them in Integration directory without using the information in SLD like business system?
In Integration Directory, we say that the sender is one Business System and receiver is another business system. These business system are created based on some technical systems. These technical systems are based on some software components and product. This product and the software component might be a installed or non installed product. Then how do we can get the connection between the sender and the business system? Can you please explain me the idea behind considering the sender and reciever as business systems.
Can anybody please clear the above doubts?
Priya

Hi Priya,
SLD:
The System Landscape Directory of SAP NetWeaver (SLD) serves as a central information repository for your system landscape. A system landscape consists of a number of hardware and software components that depend on each other with regard to installation, software updates, and demands on interfaces.
- so talking about the working of an SLD, here if any information is required for the integration server regarding the systems(logical or physical) and the software (installed products) it refers to the SLD.
- to tell you about the other features it has....it captures the dimensions of the system landscape like solution dimension, transport dimension and technical dimension.
- putting it in short XI IS A CLIENT OF SLD
Also go thru this link and understand more about SLD <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/31/f0ff69551e4f259fdad799a229363e/frameset.htm">System Landscape Directory</a>

SOFTWARE CATALOG:
The SLD contains a Software Catalog of all installable SAP products and software components. The Software Catalog includes information about support packages and dependencies between the products and software components. This information is the basis for the description of the system landscape.
Also go thru this link and understand more about Software Catalog <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/a2/2999ef97ea2b4790165f9ca5c05c41/content.htm">Software Catalog</a>
TECHNICAL SYSTEM, BUSINESS SYSTEMS, SOFTWARE PRODUCTS:
Technical system correlates the software to the physical host on which it is installed
Or in other words Technical systems are application systems that are installed in your system landscape.
- they are actually the basis for defining the business systems.
- we assign a technical system to a business system to help the SLD make the appropriate association.
- the software products used by the business system are got from the technical system definition.
- to note 1 technical system can have more than one business system assigned to it....and as told the SLD make the appropriate association between them.
Also go thru this link and understand more about each of it:

Unable to read software component version from System Landscape Directory "

I've worked in past creating/importing SWCV, but this is new system PI7.0 and stuck.
A) Is my understanding on resolution correct?
Should I go and apply notes 940309 and create client copy of existing client 001
 OR
change role of client 001; SXMB_ADMIN -> 'Integration Engine Configuration' to 'Integration Server'
I have no problem in using client 001 as Integration server, all I want is import of SWCV to work. Thanks. Appreciate the help.
B) Here is what I have done and the error:
1) Followed weblog below and created product, software component, technical system, business sytem in SLD.
/people/srinivas.vanamala2/blog/2007/02/05/step-by-step-guide-xml-file-2-xml-file-scenario-part-i
2) When I import the SWC from integration repository getting error
(Unable to read software component version from System Landscape Directory "server:5<system number>00").
C) Pointers used from the forum to debug the issue, but still no luck
Below are the points checked from the forum and all steps are correct, but still have issues with the import
1) check the RFCs SAPSLDAPI, LCRSAPRFC, connection test pass as the program ID registered with Jco
2) T-code SLDCHECK no errors (followed http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/de/78/20244134a56532e10000000a1550b0/content.htm)
3) T-code SLDAPICUST got user PIAPPLUSER, pwd is correct (reset the pwd)
4) logged using PIAPPLUSER http://server:port/sld and it works
5) One of the weblog SLD Check Failed (LCR_LIST_BUSINESS_SYSTEMS function doesn't work) referred to apply notes 940309
Notes: 940309
You are installing 'SAP NetWeaver 2004s SR1 ABAP+Java' Usage Type 'NetWeaver Process Integration (PI)'.
You don't want to use the default client 001, but another client as Integration Server.

applied portion (PIPostInstallProcess) of OSS notes 940309 and it resolved.
Note:
I still retained client 001 and didn't do client copy as mentioned in the notes. The wizard based CTC tool helped. Here are the details if someone has similar issue and want to know further details:
A NetWeaver Process Integration (PI) Installation (ABAP+Java) has two parts: Installation and configuration. The former is done by the Installer, the latter by the 'Central Template Configuration' (CTC) Tool.

1. Call the wizard-based configuration tool as described in Configuration Wizard.
 2. Select the scenario PI and the task PIPostInstallProcess.
 3. Choose Execute.
A list of the steps to be executed by the wizard is displayed.
 4. Choose Install.

Where 's the type of System Landscape Directory in Technical System ?
