Which is the difference between Oracle RAC and Oracle Clusterware?

Hi all, maybe this is a stupid question, but I've read the documentation, and still don't understand which is the difference between RAC and Clusterware.
Can anybody explain it to me?
Thanks in advance!

RAC is database option part of Oracle Database software needed to have database running in cluster mode; see http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e16508/glossary.htm#CNCPT2076.
Clusterware is separate software needed to run Oracle Database in cluster mode: you can use Oracle Clusterware without Oracle Database but you cannot use Oracle Database with RAC option without Oracle Clusterware.
See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/rac.112/e16794/intro.htm#BABCHEEE.

    which is the difference between EOS Kiss and EOS Rebel?

    The "Rebel" name is used in North America.
    The "Kiss" name is used in Japan.
    In Europe, they use a 3 digit model number.   
    E.g. the Canon 700D (as it's marketed in Europe) is the same camera sold in North America as the Rebel T5i and also the same camera sold in Japan as the Kiss X7i.
    In North America, you wont find any Canon cameras marketed as an EOS Kiss.

    DierreMax, welcome to the forum.
    If you provide a model number for the Pavilion and Envy I will tell you the difference.  Normally, the Envy is a newer model than the Pavilion.  Also, the Pavilion models are less expensive than the Envy models.

  • Which is the difference between field mode and frame mode in interlacing?

    Which is the best one for moving objects?

    An interlacing camera actually takes two pictures to create each picture you see. These pictures are taken a fraction of a second apart, which allows the object of interest to move.
    First, the camera takes a picture using the odd lines of the sensor. This is the first field. About 1/60 of a second later, it takes a picture using the even lines of the camera. This is the second field. The two pictures are combined by the frame grabber by interlacing the lines, which creates the frame you normally see as the image.
    In frame mode, the two fields are combined to make a single image. In field mode, you get the odd lines as an image, and the even lines as a separate image.
    When capturing a moving object, it is best to use a progressive scan (non-interla
    ced) camera, which takes a picture using all of the lines simultaneously.
    If you only have an interlaced camera, your best option is probably field mode, because the object doesn't have a chance to move. There are a couple of drawbacks to field mode, though. The height of your image is only half what it should be, which distorts everything and makes it difficult for measurements and the like. Also, the odd and even images are shifted by one line, so the live image appears to vibrate slightly if there is a lot of detail. You can't compare two consective images, because they are odd and even fields.
    I hope this helps.

  • Which is the difference between transactions WWP1 and WWP2  ????

    Thank.......

    Hi,
    WWP1 - Online Planning in Planning WB
    WWP2 - Settings for Planning Workbench
    You can make personal settings for the applications integrated into the Planning Workbench and for their worklists. It is also possible to make settings for the Internet services.
    The Planning Workbench currently contains Online Planning, Order Cancelation and Internet Services.
    Features
    The settings screen for the Planning Workbench contains three tab pages:
    1. Online Planning:
    The three options "Selections for Worklist", "Settings for Application" and "Settings for Worklist" influence worklists in the Planning Workbench. For more information, see the F1 help for the individual fields. The remaining options only affect settings for Online Planning itself. There is also an information button at the top left of the tab page which has detailed information on the individual fields.
    2. Order Cancelation:
    At the top left of the tab page there is an information button which has detailed information on the individual fields and the main procedures for selecting the worklist. For more information, see the F1 and F4 help for the individual fields.
    2. Internet Services:
    You can enter a maximum of 8 Internet links and e-mail addresses that can be displayed in the worklist.
    4. General Settings
    This is where you can make settings for the complete worklist. For more information, see the F1 and F4 help for the individual fields.
    Notes
    You can save the settings you make as variants under an indicator of your choice, so that the next time you call up this application you will not have to enter all this data again. This means that the selections for the worklist and the other settings will be filled with the current values or according to certain rules (for example, delivery date = yesterday's date) as default. You can also permanently hide any fields that you do not require.
    If you always work with the same variant, you can save this as a start variant. To do this follow the menu path Edit -> Start Variant. Here you can also specify whether you want to skip the selection screen. If you do this, the transaction will start directly by displaying the current worklist.
    You will find more general help on the possible entries in a selection screen under the menu item Goto -> Help Selection Screen.

  • Which is the difference between a join and a lookup key

    Hello everybody,
    I want to know in which case we must use a join or a lookup key.
    How OWB translate this two orders ?
    If you want more information, ask me.
    Best regards,
    Chris

    Hi,
    In a normal mapping, you can use a Key Lookup operator or a joiner. The Key Lookup operator operates as an outer join. You can use a joiner instead of a Key Lookup operator with the join condition specified with outer joins.
    In my view, use joiner with the lookup condition specified in outer join. Using keu lookups, in a complicated mapping can lead to the following error at runtime:
    "A table can be outer joined with atmost one other table".
    Apart from this, I think Key Lookups are generally useful in dimension lookups in a datawarehouse, where you can specify the level where you should search for a match. The 10g R2 user's guide provides the details on how to do this.

    It is the decode statement that is doing this.
    The format of decode is:
    decode(expression, search1, result1, search2, result2, searchn, resultn, default)
    All result fields must be of the same datatype and will be of the datatype of the first result (result1 in this example)
    In your example (the decode for the field Days) the first result is a NULL. I suspect (gurus? anyone?) that Oracle will use the varchar2 overload of the decode statement, and the date field will be converted to varchar2 using your NLS_DATE_FORMAT settings.
    In the second decode statment (Day1) the first result is of datatype date, so the result of the decode statement will be a date field (and will be parsed as such by your sql development tool)
    I agree, as NULL is the first result returned the datatype is undetermined, so Oracle is picking VARCHAR2 over others, and causing an implicit datatype conversion on the resultant date value, whereas the other which is returned as a date will use the local settings of the client tool being used.
    I can replicate the 'issue' in Toad, and it's rectified if we cast the first returned value of the decode statement...
    SELECT DECODE ('I', 'I', DECODE (1, NULL, CAST(NULL AS DATE), 0, NULL, SYSDATE + 1)) Days,
           DECODE ('I', 'I', SYSDATE + 1) Day1

  • What is the difference between full checkpoint and incremental checkpoint?

    What is the difference between full checkpoint and incremental checkpoint?
    And what is checkpoint queue?
    Can someone clarify these concepts?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    there are different types of checkpoints:
    - Full checkpoint:
    => DBWR writes all dirty buffers from the Buffer cache to the datafiles and CKPT retrieves a new Checkpoint Change Number from a sys owned sequence and writes this number to all file headers and the controlfile.
    -- can be triggered by different events, like a logswitch, a manual checkpoint (alter system ..), a shutdown and so on
    This is the setup point for SMON for a crash recovery.
    - Partial checkpoint:
    => DBWR writes all dirty buffers of a singel tablespace from the Buffer cache to the datafiles and CKPT retrieves a new Checkpoint Change Number from a sys owned sequence and writes this number to all file headers and the controlfile.
    -- can e triggered by an ALTER TABLESPACE OFFLINE, ALTER TABLESPACE READ ONLY, ALTER TABLESPACE BEGIN BACKUP statement.
    Incremental checkpoint:
    number to all file headers and the controlfile.
    -- can be triggered by different events, like a logswitch, a manual checkpoint (alter system ..), a shutdown and so on
    - Partial checkpoint:
    => DBWR writes all dirty buffers of a single tablespace from the Buffer cache to the datafiles and CKPT retrieves a new Checkpoint Change Number from a sys owned sequence and writes this number to all file headers and the controlfile.
    -- frequency is determined by FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET parameter (new feature to Oracle 9i), with wich you can specify a time in seconds which SMON is allowed to take maximal for a Crash Recovery until the database must be open again.
    Dapending on the system you have SMON must calculate the maximum number of Redolog-blocks which it can manage to recover in the specified number of seconds. It will then create so called incremental checkpoints which will be tracked in the so called checkpoint queue in memory.
    FAST_START_MTTR_TARGET is auto-tuned in Oracle 10g and Oracle tries to manage (incremental) checkpoint in a fashion that a minimum of I/Os are caused and a minimum time for crash recovery is needed.
    If you set LOG_CHECKPOINTS_TO_ALERT to TRUE you will find checkpoint information in the alertSID.log file. You will see FULL and INCREMENTAL checkpoints then.
    Hope this clarifies your question,

    Hi,
    Upgrade SAP or Installation of SAP R/3 and ECC
    What is ECC?  Where to find the installation steps of  ECC 5/6.0 with SQL as database and on windows platform with the steps including Solution Manager installation?
    http://service.sap.com/instguides
    ECC means Enterprise Central Component.
    There are all the relevant installation guides. You NEED SAPNet access because without a registered and licensed SolMan installation number you will not be able to generate the SolMan key for the ECC installation.
    Upgrade to 4.7
    Have you gone through an upgrade to 4.7? 
    What are the difference or changes associated with 4.7. 
    If you are currently on 4.6C and are inching forward to upgrading to 4.7 then this information might be useful to you.
    There is very little difference between 4.6 and 4.7, the only "steps" you should need are steps in SU25 ( skip step 1) Then go through all your role and perform a merge old new to bring in the new authorization objects 
    Just to forewarn you of a potential problem which have been encounter at the point of writing.
    After updating/ modifying roles in step 2C, when going back into 2C to make sure all roles are now green, 70% have gone back to red! 
    The maintenance done is ok, but there seems to be a problem while trying to go back into the roles again to re-generate. 
    SAP recognizes them as needing "adjustment", so you cannot pick them up in mass generate in PFCG as they do not come in, even though the authorizations tab is red. 
    This problem is currently with SAP and it is confirmed that nothing have been done wrongly. 
    Generally, the work is quite manageable in the upgrade, but don't be surprised at how big the upgrade is when compared to upgrading from 46b to 46c.
    If we have full software of 46c and 47E is it possible to upgrade 46c to 47E or there is a seperate 47E upgrade software need to be requested from SAP?
    Where I can get the document with upgrade steps on the service market place?
    It is of course possible and supported:
    http://service.sap.com/inguides
    --> SAP Components
    --> SAP R/3 Enterprise
    --> (choose your version)
    at the bottom there is an "Upgrade guide" for Windows and Unix.
    For Upgrades it is recommended to read ALL the notes mentioned in the 
    upgrade guide and to make sure one is using
    - the correct version of the "tp" program
    - the correct version of the "R3trans" program
    - the correct version of the "R3up" program
    All that is explained in the upgrade guide and in the corresponding notes.
    If this is your first upgrade you should take a person, that has some experience on doing that for the first time.
    Installation of SAP R/3
    Currently we are going to install SAP on a new IBM server from the existing COMPAQ server. Where can I get the steps for that. 
    Configuration is :
       OS - windows 2003 server
       DB - Oracle 9i
       SAP 4.7
    http://service.sap.com/instguides
    --> SAP Components
    --> SAP R/3 Enterprise
    --> SAP R/3 Enterprise Core 4.70 / Ext. Set 2.00 (SR1)
    --> Inst. Guide - R/3 Enterprise 4.7 x 2.00 SR1 on Win: Oracle
    The above url is the SAP Service Marketplace with all the information you need to install, configure and run system. You need to be a valid licensed customer with a user ID and PASSWORD to use that.
    Without access you won't be able to successfully run any SAP systems because it has notes, patches etc.

  • The difference between system restore and last good known configuration

    hi,
    what is the difference between system restore  and last good known configuration.
    in which situation you use system restore ,and in which situation you use last good known configuration.
    very short answer wil be enough.
    thanks
    johan
    h.david

    Last Known Good Configuration deals only with Starting Windows eg. a bad registry or incorrect driver is preventing Windows to start.It recovers the registry settings of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet
    While System Restore uses restore points to return your system files and settings to an earlier point in time without affecting personal files. Restore points are created automatically every week, and just before significant system events, such as the installation
    of a program or device driver. You can also create a restore point manually.You can undone system restore but there is no such option in Last Known Good Configuration.
    Last Known Good Configuration is disabled in Windows 8 or,Windows 8.1 by default.
    Try using Last Known Good Configuration if you can't start Windows, but it started correctly the last time you turned on the computer.
    Try using System Restore to return the system to an earlier point in time when things worked correctly.

  • What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring?

    What is the difference between Video-out and mirroring? I can't get iPhone 4 video to work on my TV screen
    I have just bought an MD098ZM/A (Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter). I am struggling to get it to show a picture on my TV. I know I'm doing something right because the audio is coming out of my TV speakers but no picture on the TV screen.
    I have used the same HDMI channel (on the TV side) with the same cable and my thunderbolt port (MacBook Air) without any trouble - and on the same app (BBC iPlayer download then full-screen mode).
    Now I note that the packaging for the MD098ZM/A says video-out on iPhone 4 but mirroring only on iPhone 4S. I only have an iPhone 4 (not the 4S). Now if the lack of iPhone 4 support for mirroring means that I can't play video material out to my TV, then in what sense is there any video-out capability at all?
    There is only safety and warranty paperwork in the Apple adapter packaging - no help information. And I haven't found further guidance online either.
    I do note somewhere online that it suggests that basic non-mirroring video-out (for this adapter) only works with some external TV sets. Any way of finding out which? I'm using a Sanyo CE32LD90-B LCD TV if it helps.
    So far not doing very well.

    Now found these but have had to give up on this adapter!

        In which table can we see the item number for rebate agreement

    Hi,
    If you have to deal with more complex situations, you can define a delivery cycle in the material master record in addition to the planning cycle. In so doing, you determine the days on whichthe vendor delivers his goods. The delivery cycle is entered in the material master record as a planning calendar in the Planning calendar field.
    You enter a delivery cycle if the delivery date (or the goods receipt date) depends on the day on which you order the goods. For example, you carry out the planning run and place your orders on Mondays and Tuesdays. If you place the order on Monday, the delivery is made on Wednesday, if you wait until Tuesday to place the order, the delivery is not made until Friday
    Where as Planning calander is Three character number (numeric or using letters) that specifically identifies a PPS-planning calendar. The difference between Planning calender and delivery cycle is If you have selected the MRP type "MRP" and have set a period lot-sizing procedure according to planning calendar, you enter here which planning calendar is to be used.
    If you selected the "time-phased planning" MRP type, the planning calendar that you specify here defines the delivery cycle. This specifies the days on which the vendor delivers the material. You can enter the planning cycle in addition to the delivery cycle
