Why there is need for upgradation

Hi All,
can some one help me out with why we need to go for SAP BW upgradation to SAP BI 7.0?
Thanks,

Hi Bazi,
In BW 7.0 you have more tools to help you designing your data model. I would say also that, even though you have much more tools, the data flows have even become much more simple.
In BW 7.0, to trigger data loads inside the BW system, you have DTPs. In BW 3.x, you had only InfoPackages. That is an advace, because in BW 7.0, you won't necessarily need a staging DSO. That is because you may load first to the DataSource via InfoPackages and then into the InfoProviders you want, via DTP. Check the following thread: [Re: Is it compulsory to create ODS in BW?|Re: Is it compulsory to create ODS in BW?]
RSA1 is more well organized. There are more divisions and the searches are simpler.
Instead of having the dataflow:
DataSource -> Transfer Rule -> InfoSource -> Update Rule -> InfoProvider
You may construct a much simpler flow:
DataSource -> Transformation-> InfoProvider
There is also the new Archiving functionality.
There are many new features in BW 7.0 and it's really worth it.

Why there is need to define processing code (we41/we42) in Idocs?

Hi All,
Why there is need to define the processing codes when we already have defined the processing function for the IDOC type & message type combinations via we57.

Hi,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/dc/6b804043d711d1893e0000e8323c4f/content.htm
The inbound function module needs to be linked to the message type and the mess type needs to b linked to the appropriate process code at the partner oprofile level before any scenario is enabled.

Thanks for your help
If you click buy, it takes you to a sub munu, where you can select either "Full or Upgrade". Select Upgrade, then select the version you already have. The upgrade price will then be displayed.

Is there a need for the i.p. to change?

I see that the i.p. is set to change every 4 hours by default for all my Macs but is there a need for this? Is there a way to set it so it doesn't change? Or is that a bad idea?
PowerBook 15", 1.67 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Thanks for the info Frank.
I'm using a Widget for a software called Indigo wich controls my X10 lighting system and the Widget needs a static i.p.
I changed the i.p. to all 4 Macs and they work fine.

Is there a need for internet on iphone while you wan to locate it when you lost your iphone?

I lost my iphone and I am trying to locate my iphone using the Icloud-Find my iphone, but it shows offline, so I just wanna know if is there a need for internet service on iphone or it works with the location service only?? Cz it shows offline, help plz

Maybe the networks have different services, cause here in Afghanistan I had a ROSHAN network simcard in my iphone, it shows your current location on the map if the map is already downloaded in a limited area, but if the map is not downloaded it shows the current location in a blank page even when I turn off the 3G and cellular services.
That’s what I was using here. Thank you any way.
Have a good time.

Why is serial# needed for unique session info

hello everybody,
as you know, a session is unique with 2 fields, SID and SERIAL# which exist on v$session view.
my question is why is serial# needed and for which case serial# is changing.
now, you can say that, "only oracle developers know this, that is the design" but what i mean is, for ex: if i wanted to find a session which is blocked by another session, I use this:
select * from v$session where blocking_session is not null;in blocking_Session field, oracle gives me the session id (SID) which is blocking a session. so i can use this SID and i can kill it for instance but SID is not unique for a session I can find more than one session with same SID which one is the blocking one ?
in real life i didnt see an example of that, there is no same sid in system like my blocking session example. so I believe that serial# is assigning for another purpose, I mean, i thougth that it could be for autonomous transaction, maybe they user same sid but differen serial# but when i tested it, i saw that i was wrong.
so, why serial# is exists. if this is a design issue, how can i find a blocking session by just using SID info ?
thanks a lot.

Not surprisingly, an explanation may already be found in the documentation (and copied in Rene's reply above):
See http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e25513/dynviews_3016.htm (column description).
Or search:
http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/search?word=sid+serial%23&partno=
Besides for terminating sessions, serial# may be relevant when e.g. tracing sessions (SQL Trace).
Not sure what type of example you were looking for, but I came up with this in about five seconds:
C:\Users>sqlplus blocker_user
Enter password:
Connected to:
Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
SQL> select sid,serial# from v$session where sid=(select sid from v$mystat where rownum=1);
       SID    SERIAL#
       136         27
SQL> conn other_user
Enter password:
Connected.
SQL> select sid,serial# from v$session where sid=(select sid from v$mystat where rownum=1);
       SID    SERIAL#

Need for Upgrade as Opposed to New Installation

What is the need to upgrade from 9i to 10g or 10g to 11g or 9i to 11g? If your database is relatively small, can an Oracle Export, uninstall database and install upgraded version desired be performed in place of an upgrade? What are the issues involved? Is deprecated functionality the only issue?

Hi SacCityLocal,
export/import works fine for smaller database as long as you have enough downtime. But please make sure to run the full database export as user SYSTEM (not SYS). The disadvantage of exp/imp is the time it'll take, additional storage for the dump file, you'll have to build up an empty database ideally with the correct locations for tablespaces/datafiles etc. - this all takes time and involves a lot of manial steps.
So I'd always prefer upgrading with the DBUA. This will do everything for you, customize your init.ora etc. And it should take less downtime and is less error-prone than export/import - so it's much easier.
You can go directly with the DBUA from 9i to 10gR2 or 11g - just as you want. There are no steps in between necessary. For exp/imp the same applies.
Please make sure to install the latest patch set to your new Oracle home before you start the upgrade with DBUA or exp/imp.
Kind regards
Mike

Is there a need for setting undo_retention=0?

Hi
If i set my undo_retention to a >0 value, oracle will try his best effort to keep the consistent image for as long as my undo retention value. So, i don;t see why is there a need to let oracle manage the retention for me by setting to 0.
Thanks
Rgds
Ung

Hi,
By setting UNDO_RETENTION to 0, you enable auto tuned retention
As far as I know tuned undo retention is enabled by default. Setting the undo_retention acts as a minimal threshold.
There is a difference in the tuned undo retention value between fixed size undo tablespaces and autoextend enabled tablespaces. From the 10G Release 2 Administrator’s Guide:
If the undo tablespace is
configured with the AUTOEXTEND option, undo retention tuning is slightly different. In
this case, the database tunes the undo retention period to be slightly longer than the
longest-running query on the system at that time.
Undo Retention Tuning and Alert Thresholds For a fixed size undo tablespace, the
database calculates the maximum undo retention period based on database statistics
and on the size of the undo tablespace. For optimal undo management, rather than
tuning based on 100% of the tablespace size, the database tunes the undo retention
period based on 85% of the tablespace size, or on the warning alert threshold
percentage for space used, whichever is lower. (The warning alert threshold defaults to
85%, but can be changed.) Therefore, if you set the warning alert threshold of the undo
tablespace below 85%, this may reduce the tuned length of the undo retention period.

Tom

SPAM Update needed for Upgrade Assistent

For updating a SAP System (IDES 4.7) I assume I need the Upgrade Assistant!? I installed the UA-Server and connected with a browser to the local Service (http://x.x.x.x:4239/ua/UaGUI.html). After a few steps in the phase "PREPARE", the assistand is running into the following error: "The SPAM Version 15 of your system is too low!!!". I downloaded the newest SPAM-Package and unpacked it. The resulting files are "CSR0120031469_0026199.ATT" and "CSR0120031469_0026199.PAT". I copied them to \usr\sap\trans\EPS\in but the error still appears...
Any hint how to get 'em working? Am I totally wrong with this solution?

Hi Thomas
I think for upgrading an IDES system you need to install it again. Anyway , this note 164244 says you can ask SAP for an upgrade if necessary.

Is there any need for a 1536 x 2048 folio anymore? Do they even work with DPS v32?

So I just received a gig from a client to design their new magazine issue using their provided back issue indd DPS files (CS6), along with their new content from the latest print edition that will fill these articles. However, the previous DPS documents were built using 1536 x 2048 pixel (vertical orientation) pages. Is there even a use for this folio size anymore? And would it even work with Apple and Google Play and the latest folio buider?
I recall in 2012, I had to build two renditions during the iPad1 to retina transition, so it could be read on both devices. But I thought Adobe soon abandoned the need for two renditions and went with just the 1024 pixels. I've only worked with 1024 since with all my other clients. Is this correct thinking? Do I need to convert these files to 1024? I'm guessing so, but I don't want to just guess.
The other thing I wonder is if Apple had approved their back issue on 2048 pixels, would it mean a re-submission the new folio using 1024 px height? We have to update the App to iOS 8 anyway, so I just need to be sure I'm working with the folio size.
Can I assume the v32.2 folio builder is solid enough to run with at this time? Hoping one folio will work with both storefronts (google play and Apple) without any glitches/scaling issues.
Cheers,
Brian

I think I'll advise my client to convert their current 2048 pixel folio to 1024 pixel height. Then have that 1024 build approved by Apple. Then push my new issue content into the approved App shell. The only time I needed a 2048 rendition is when the new retina iPads came out (mid-2012), and we wanted to take full advantage of the resolution. We also used a 1024 rendition for the iPad1s.
I suspect their 2048 folio is what is making their App in Content Viewer crash. Also, they didn't have a V or H in the filenames, which is what I was trained to do with naming each of my articles, so perhaps that's what's making it crash? I was surprised it would even upload/recognize an article without the V or H in the filename.
Does this sound like possible solution to fix the crashing? The other thing I noticed is that they didn't package their files with fonts and links for each article like I would (They had 20 indd article docs in one issue folder, then all images for all articles were in one links folder (named images, not links. Another suspect. Does Adobe prefer "Links" for the assets?).
If I could solve their crashing problem, I'd be their rock star.

I'm new to mac. Is there a need for Clean my Mac?

I'm new to mac. Is there a need to have Clean my Mac on my computer?

How to maintain a Mac
Make two or more backups of all your files
One backup is not enough to be safe. A copy of a backup doesn't count as another backup; all backups must be made directly from the original data.
Keep at least one backup off site at all times in case of disaster. Backing up to a cloud-data service is one way to accomplish this, but don't rely exclusively on such backups.
In fact, don’t rely exclusively on any single backup method, such as Time Machine.
If you get an indication that a backup has failed, don't ignore it.
Keep your software up to date
In the App Store or Software Update preference pane (depending on the OS version), you can configure automatic notifications of updates to OS X and other Mac App Store products. Some third-party applications from other sources have a similar feature, if you don’t mind letting them phone home. Otherwise you have to check yourself on a regular basis.
Keeping up to date is especially important for complex software that modifies the operating system, such as device drivers. Don't install such modifications unless they're absolutely necessary. Remove them when they are no longer needed. Before installing any Apple update, you must check that all system modifications that you use are compatible. Incompatibility with third-party software is by far the most common cause of difficulties with system updates.
Don't install crapware
...such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” "boosters," “extenders,” “cleaners,” "doctors," "tune-ups," “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” "disk tools," or "utilities." With very few exceptions, such stuff is useless or worse than useless. Above all, avoid any software that purports to change the look and feel of the user interface.
It's not much of an exaggeration to say that the whole "utility" software industry for the Mac is a fraud on consumers. The most extreme examples are the "CleanMyMac," "TuneUpMyMac," and “MacKeeper” scams, but there are many others.
As a rule, you should avoid software that changes the way other software works. Plugins for Photoshop and similar programs are an obvious exception to this rule. Safari extensions, and perhaps the equivalent for other web browsers, are a partial exception. Most are safe, and they're easy to get rid of if they don't work. Some may cause the browser to crash or otherwise malfunction. Some are malicious. Use with caution, and install only well-known extensions from relatively trustworthy sources, such as the Safari Extensions Gallery.
Only install software that is useful to you, not (as you imagine) to the computer. For example, a word processor is useful for writing. A video editor is useful for making movies. A game is useful for fun. But a "cache cleaner" isn't useful for anything. You didn't buy a computer so you could clean caches.
Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it. Otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve. Do not rely on "utilities" such as "AppCleaner" and the like that purport to remove software.
Don't install bad, conflicting, or unnecessary fonts
Whenever you install new fonts, use the validation feature of the built-in Font Book application to make sure the fonts aren't defective and don't conflict with each other or with others that you already have. See the built-in help and this support article for instructions.
Deactivate or remove fonts that you don't really need to speed up application launching.
Avoid malware
"Malware" is malicious software that circulates on the Internet. This kind of attack on OS X was once so rare that it was hardly a concern, but it's now increasingly common and dangerous.
There is some built-in protection against malware, but you can’t rely on it—the attackers are always at least one day ahead of the defense. You can’t rely on third-party "anti-virus" products for protection either. What you can rely on is common-sense awareness—not paranoia, which only makes you more vulnerable.
Never install software from an untrustworthy or unknown source. If in doubt, do some research. Any website that prompts you to install a “codec” or “plugin” that comes from the same site, or an unknown site, is untrustworthy. Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, must come directly from the developer's website. No intermediary is acceptable, and don’t trust links unless you know how to parse them. Any file that is automatically downloaded from the web, without your having requested it, should go straight into the Trash. A web page that tells you that your computer has a “virus,” or that anything else is wrong with it, is a scam.
In OS X 10.7.5 or later, downloaded applications and Installer packages that have not been digitally signed by a developer registered with Apple are blocked from loading by default. The block can be overridden, but think carefully before you do so.
Because of recurring security issues in Java, it’s best to disable it in your web browsers, if it’s installed. Few websites have Java content nowadays, so you won’t be missing much. This action is mandatory if you’re running any version of OS X older than 10.6.8 with the latest Java update. Note: Java has nothing to do with JavaScript, despite the similar names. Don't install Java unless you're sure you need it. Most people don't.
Don't fill up your disk or SSD
A common mistake is adding more and more large files to your home folder until you start to get warnings that you're out of space, which may be followed in short order by a startup failure. This is more prone to happen on the newer Macs that come with an internal SSD instead of the traditional hard drive. The drive can be very nearly full before you become aware of the problem.
While it's not true that you should or must keep any particular percentage of space free, you should monitor your storage use and make sure you're not in immediate danger of using it up. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of free space on the startup volume for normal operation.
If storage space is running low, use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the most space. Move seldom-used large files to secondary storage.
Relax, don’t do it
Besides the above, no routine maintenance is necessary or beneficial for the vast majority of users; specifically not “cleaning caches,” “zapping the PRAM,” "resetting the SMC," “rebuilding the directory,” "defragmenting the drive," “running periodic scripts,” “dumping logs,” "deleting temp files," “scanning for viruses,” "purging memory," "checking for bad blocks," "testing the hardware," or “repairing permissions.” Such measures are either completely pointless or are useful only for solving problems, not for prevention.
To use a Mac effectively, you have to free yourself from the Windows mindset that every computer needs regular downtime for maintenance such as "defragging" and "registry cleaning." Those concepts do not apply to the Mac platform.
A well-designed computing device is not something you should have to think about much. It should be an almost transparent medium through which you communicate, work, and play. If you want a machine that needs a lot of attention just to keep going, use a PC, or collect antique cars.
The very height of futility is running an expensive third-party application called “Disk Warrior” when nothing is wrong, or even when something is wrong and you have backups, which you must have. Disk Warrior is a data-salvage tool, not a maintenance tool, and you will never need it if your backups are adequate. Don’t waste money on it or anything like it.

Is there a need for Partial Replication ?

Partial replication is the possibility to replicate only a subset of a DIT. It can be Fractional Replication (Subset of attributes per entry), Sparse (Subset of entries) or Subtree (Only a portion of the tree).
If you have needs for partial replication, it is time to discuss with us about your requirements, your replication scenarios...
Ludovic Poitou
Directory Server Replication Architect.

There are a number of situations where partial replication would be beneficial to most organizations.
Fractional:
Various differing national laws prevent companies from sending personal information (such as home addresses and telephone numbers, and government identification numbers) into or outside of particular countries. If you wish to geographically distribute your directory services for performance reasons, non-fractional replication would make that a manual or scheduled process, likely with an LDIF intermediary of some kind. From our perspective, the need for this type of partial replication is greatest.
Sparse:
This could again be useful for companies with geographical data distribution concerns, or with specialized/purposed directory servers. How would this be accomplished - using LDAP search filters, or some other method?
Subtree:
We would be particularly interested in this type of replication for security reasons. For example, we want to have sensitive authentication/authorization information used for private administrative applications or high-security applications (such as a PKI) stored only on secured servers over which we have physical control. This would also allow us to deploy single-purpose servers (containing only a subset of our entries) where creating an additional database is not a viable option.
As our environments grow, in number of servers and in global reach, the ability to perform replication in "untraditional" (<i>i.e.</i>, non-database) ways becomes a significant product differentiator.

Is there a need for a sub-forum focussing on PI Sheets, XSteps, etc.?

Hi,
during the last XStep-Café session the question was brought up why there is no separate forum for topics like:
- PI Sheet
- Work In struction Sheet
- XSteps
What do you think? Would you prefer that these topics are discussed in SCM-PP or should there be such a new forum section? How should it be named?
Regards,
Arne

Hi,
thank you for your many positve replies. It seems that the creation of a new sub-topic is hard te get approved by the SDN responsibles. However I have created an own blog on this topic with a lot of useful information. There is no real forum functionality yet but I might add that in the future:
