Why we are using SID in DSO when there we are using star schema in BI

can anyone answer me why we are using SID in DSO also, i mean what is the need of SID in DSO?

The reason basically is that the entire query api in BW is based on SIDs
If you look at a sql of a query that is generated when you run a report you can see this
Example..
If you put a selection of period = 02.2009
In the SQL you will not see "where period = 02.2009" you will see "where sid.period = '000100001010" or something like that
The whole query is like this for Infoproviders of DSOs and Infocubes
Yes it is annoying - but that't the way it is..
So if you have a DSO you wish to report on you need the SID for the SQL to fire..!
On an operational daya to day side - if my cubes are 1:1 granularity with my DSOs then I prefer to put SID activation on the DSOs - two reasons
1. so the cube load is quicker because the SID generation has already taken place (is this important? never sure but I always do it)
2. future use of the DSO as a reporting object (this was before the days of the operational store as part of a LSA structure)

Why does iTunes report 1GB of photos when there are none?

My iPhone was running out of space so I imported all photos to Aperture and deleted them from the phone after the import.
If I now go to the photos app I see that it is empty, but iTunes reports 1010 pictures occupying 984,9 MB of space on the phone.
I've tried factory resetting the phone and restoring a backup, but that didn't help.

Have you rebooted your iPad? Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple and it reboots. See if that helps.
I know with my hotmail it downloaded a bunch of old mail and I had to go through and 'read' it all to get it to be unread.

Why is it possible to scroll horizontal when there is none?

Hi there people,
I hope some of you can help me out with this little problem. Put lots of effort in my new portfolio but there is one irritating thing I can't get on with. The option to scroll horizontale is constantly enabled while there is nothing on the side; just blank! Maybe this is because I put images in the header and footer in the master. I want these images fixed in the middle and to be repeated in the browser. How can I do this? Is this a bug or just inexperience?
Here is the link of the trial:

Please help me out here!
Thanx

Hi,
It sounds like what you're looking for is to have the images as background fills for a rectangle. If you set the rectangle to have no background fill or stroke then set these images as the background for them you can tile (horizontally, vertically, or both) the image and you can set the rectangle to be 100% width. That way the rectangle will always be the same width as the browser and the image will be repeated, or set in the middle of the page and you don't need to tile the image.
Anytime you have an object outside of the browser area in Muse the page will scroll horizontally, so the easiest way to achieve any effect that you want to be 100% width will be to use rectangles, text frames, and any other object that supports 100% width.
Hope that helps!

Why can I not edit tags properly when I click on the star/bookmark icon?

Firefox 6.0
When I try to edit tags, I cannot see the text I'm typing and when I type something and say "Done". The changes are saved so that's fine. I also noticed when I choose the folder for where the bookmark goes via clicking the star/bookmark icon, it doesn't update the choice I've made visually.

What happens when you click the star (now colored gold) a second time? See the steps in the process of adding a bookmark by the method you are using. Step 1, step 2....

Why does my query only show clients when there is no criteria defined?

My query simply wants to display different properties of a computer. There is no limiting criteria and yet it will only display those systems that are SCCM clients. The collection is an AD OU with both clients and non-clients. Here is my query. Thank
you.
select SMS_R_System.ADSiteName, SMS_R_System.DistinguishedName, SMS_R_System.IPAddresses, SMS_R_System.LastLogonUserName, SMS_R_System.Name, SMS_G_System_DESKTOP_MONITOR.Description, SMS_G_System_SYSTEM_ENCLOSURE.SerialNumber, SMS_G_System_PHYSICAL_MEMORY.Capacity,
SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK.Name, SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK.Size, SMS_G_System_COMPUTER_SYSTEM.Manufacturer, SMS_G_System_COMPUTER_SYSTEM.Model, SMS_R_System.Client from SMS_R_System inner join SMS_G_System_PHYSICAL_MEMORY on SMS_G_System_PHYSICAL_MEMORY.ResourceID
= SMS_R_System.ResourceId inner join SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK on SMS_G_System_LOGICAL_DISK.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId inner join SMS_G_System_COMPUTER_SYSTEM on SMS_G_System_COMPUTER_SYSTEM.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId inner join SMS_G_System_SYSTEM_ENCLOSURE
on SMS_G_System_SYSTEM_ENCLOSURE.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId inner join SMS_G_System_DESKTOP_MONITOR on SMS_G_System_DESKTOP_MONITOR.ResourceId = SMS_R_System.ResourceId

They don't negate non-client results -- your query does because it is using inner joins. Inner joins drop rows in the "left" table if there is no matching row (based on the join condition) in the "right" table.
The SMS_G_System_DESKTOP_MONITOR probably does not have any rows for your non-client resources and so the entire row gets dropped. That's how inner joins work. If you don't want this to happen, then you need to use an outer join -- typically a left outer
join is what you want. This is all SQL specific and has nothing to do with ConfigMgr. It also has nothing to do with SSRS.
There are tons of great resources on both SQL and SSRS -- just use Bing.

Why does my iPhoto Library say 32gb when there's only one photo in it?

I am trying to figure out why my MacBook Air is running out of space, and am finding out that Photostream isn't photos in the cloud, it's photos in the cloud that it stores on my different computers hard drives or storage. So, I turned off Photostream, and deleted the pics as Disk Inventory X is telling me that my iPhoto Library is taking up 32.7gb of storage, despite there only being one picture in there that is no special picture. I deleted all the rest. There is ONE picture in the whole iPhoto Library, I deleted all the rest! What is taking up 32gb of my HD???

Have you rebooted since the deletions. That will empty a number of caches and may restore the freed up space. Also open the iPhoto Library package with the Finder as shown in this screenshot
locate the iPod Photo Cache folder and delete its contents. Make no other changes to the contents of the iPHoto LIbrary Package.

Why does sometimes it shows random boxes when there should be text.

On some webites (take youtube for example) it shows white boxes instead of text.

Newbie question : why is star schema fast and efficient?

Hi all,
just a stupid question, but I haven't been able to find a proper
answer so far...
Why is star schema a good design for Data Marts and DWH?
What is the underlying reason that makes it attractive
performance wise?
Why wouldn't just one big table with all the data in it and with
the proper indexes be enough?
Thanks all!!
Regards
Vincent

There are several reasons to use star schemas, particularly in
Oracle.
A flat table like you asked about looks attractive but has
several flaws, i.e. massive data redundancy, no logical
groupings, no aggregation (or additional redundant data
aggregated), etc.
A start schema is semi-denormalized to allow easy reporting. A
truely normalized system is diffucult to report against be cause
you may have to join many tables to return just 2 pieces of
related data. A star schema enables you to join to only a single
dimension table to the fact table to return the same 2 pieces of
data. If you're returning many pieces of data, a star schema
keeps access very simple. Most third party reporting tools
recognize star schemas and will build your where clauses behind
the scenes making them a lot more useful to end users.
Oracle is adding optimizations to the cbo for start schemas.
Using dimensions, materialized views, partitions, IOTs, etc
greatly enhances performance for queries against massive amounts
of data. It does make loading the data more difficult but the
trade off at query time is worth it.
A flat table structure, besides having a lot of redundant data,
is hard to optimize. When you have terebytes of data, a flat
table structure gets scary even with indexes.
This is just my opinion, hope that helps.

Why should we use DSO instad of Infocube i BW7.4-SAP BW7.4

Dear All,
now I'm working with HCM- Payroll (BWreports) Standard reports, data flow is datasource--->Infocube--->Reports, but my architecture given data flow datasource--->DSO--->Multiprovider-->Reports, this is in SAP BW7.4, could any one explain me why should we use DSO instead of infocube..
Thanks for your helping...
Regards,
Narasimha

Hi
In Loading purpose:
Better to use DSO, becouse it involves 3 tables ie New data table, Active data table and Change log table.
in case of INFO CUBE, here it involves more than 3 tables ie by default 3 dimension tables are existedby SAP... at least we will create 2 tables ie 1 dimension table and 1 fact table ....here it involves 5 tables.( 3 default+1 dimension+1 Fact table)
Conclusion: When we create INFO CUBE it will takes more time compared to DSO because it involves 3 table
Conclusion: Best practice is when we load data to taget, better to use DSO
In Reporting:
Cube will give summerised data whyle reporting and it is multi dimensional,ie we can analyse the data in multiple ways.
DSO will give detailed data whyle reporting and it is 2 dimensional , ie we can analyse the data in 2 dimensional way only
Conclusion: Best practise is Whyle reporting better to use INFO CUBE

Why can't I get alert tones when I send or receive email. I checked Sounds and volumes are at max.

Why can't I get alert tones when I send or receive email. I checked Sounds and volumes are at max.

Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

Why am I being charged for data when connected to wifi AND not using my phone?!

WHY am I being charged for data that I'm not using? At times when I'm asleep AND my phone is connected to wifi?! This happens at really specific, alternating times like 9:54 pm every day, or 12:01 am, 6:01 am and then 12:01pm and 6:01pm. When I called I was told "maybe your wifi at home is disconnecting" or "maybe your phone is connecting to atnt or sprint". It's not possible that my phone is disconnecting from wifi every six hours on the dot and, at that exact time, I'm always using data. I find it hard to believe that I live in a HUGE city and my phone magically connects to other networks and I NEVER notice this. Verizon is full of LIARS (and maybe’s) and I'm not convinced that these data charges are a coincidence. I was told to turn off my cellular data to see if the problem resolves itself. Why should I alter my daily life when Verizon is clearly the one with the issue? I hope there's a class action lawsuit because Verizon is trying to get over on everyone! I need answers!

Hello NotHappy101,
I think it's quite odd that your data usage is at very specific times. We can certainly take a closer look. Please reply to my Direct Message, so we can get some additional details.
Thanks,

Some of my contact names are not appearing when they text message me. They are just showing up as their numbers. I have them saved in my phone so i am not really sure why their names aren't showing up when they message me?

I have this identical problem. For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad. Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something. Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads. I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time) Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc. There still hasn't been a solution.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Why am I getting an error message when trying to use a template?

Why am I getting an error message when trying to use a Pages template?

You are getting an error message because there is an error.
Knowing wht version of Pages you are using, what template you are attempting to open, and what error message Pages is sending you might help determine why you are getting that specific rror message. Without those, the first sentence above i pretty much all that can be said with any assurance.

Open Pictures folder and move the files named lrcat-journal and lrcat.lock to Desktop.
Make sure that , they are not inside Pictures folder any more and try to open backup from Lighrtroom and check..
Any LRcat file with .lock extension , move it to Desktop.

Yes, you can also, e.g. include a help file or manual as html and open that in the browser.
