Analysis of the performance of the DB

Hello

I have an AWR report. Is there any tool to analyze the report completely and say where are the bottlenecks are and also suggestions for improvements?

I've heard of ADDM. But I'm not sure it does exactly the job of analysis?

Can someone give me an idea?

Thank you and best regards,
Ashok

The (ADDM) automatic database diagnostic monitor analyzes the data in the automatic repository (AWR) workload to identify potential performance bottlenecks.
You can run as qu'ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/addmrpt.sql

    Hello garyg45,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand that you want to perform a "reverse image analysis" with the Officejet 6700 Premium. I will do my best to help you! What is your operating system on your computer? Windows or Mac?

    How is the printer connected? USB or wireless?

    The HP software does not come with this feature, but there are of the workarounds you can try. If you have a Windows computer, you can use Windows Paint, which has an option to "Invert color" and "invert selection". You can scan a document into paint using the "from camera or Scanner" or you can copy and paste an image. I'll give you a document from HP on this step here. Click on 'How to Scan without HP software. Then follow this document How to invert the colors in painting.

    Please post your results, I'll be looking forward to hear from you.

  • The analysis of the non-numeric characters in a string

    Hello

    I am communicating a robot to LabVIEW (2013) via TCP/IP and sockets. The robot is the server, and LV is the customer.

    I start with the target data in this format (in a string):

    "[0 ~ 100 ~ 0] ~ [0.96593 ~-0.25882 ~ 0 ~ 0] ~ [1 ~ 0 ~ 0 ~ 0] ~ [150 ~ 50]."

    [X, Y, Z], [Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4], [C1, C4, C6, Cx], [TCPVel, OrientVel] except replacement ',' (comma) with a ' ~ ' (tilde) because I load the target data in a spreadsheet which is a comma-delimited file.

    In LV, I take this string, the analysis of the chain and split individual items. I then pulled the singular elements as unique, 32-bit of real numbers. I take each one and convert them individually to a string, concatenate them and send them to the robot. The robot decompresses these raw bytes individually and converts them to a target of robot (position in space).

    I train (BT) check if the user has sent a bad character (non-digital) in the target data. Example of this is:

    [- 50 ~-150 ~ 0] ~ [0.96593 ~-0 ] [B2has5D882 ~ 0 ~ 0] ~ [1 ~-1 ~ 0 ~ 0] ~ [150 ~ 50]

    Now in BT, when I'm scanning the chain, these bad character becomes the entire element to zero and everything else then to zero as well. See attachment for example screen similar.

    My question is, my VI, I can analyze all non-numeric characters (that are inside the parentheses and characters that are NOT a ' ~ ' (tilde))? In this way, I can always get this item numbers and do not have this element or other items turn to zero?

    Thanks in advance for any help!

  • Analysis of the particle pixel measurments - how to get the co - ADR of the first pixel

    Hello

    I'm developing some labview code to measure particles.

    I'm having trouble with the analysis of the particle VI. I'm not sure what values of table, I need the table to return the co - ADR of the first pixel (more to the left the higher pixel) and also any useful information!

    I joined the program, I worked on that. To test I'm loading a black bitmap with some white circles on it.

    Thank you

    Right click on the entry of measurement in pixels and select create constant. This will paste an empty array of metrics on your chart. Click on and select the first pixel X and the first pixel Y parameters, as shown below.

  • Analysis of the error in normal mode string

    Hi all

    Suddenly, my analysis of the chain has stopped working and started giving me this error. The read string ends up being something like 2.86E - 4 or similar. When I run mode highlighted everything works fine and it interprets the number very well but when he's not in highlight mode it returns an error. Not sure why since it is just a number to convert. Any help? I have attached the error and the highlight mode version. Thank you!

    First guess: synchronization problem. Especially since you said it works in highlight mode. Specifically, when you run culminating point mode you expect probably not long enough before trying to read, and the loop will immediately detect any byte on serial port. This delay function there will not guarantee a delay of 1 second between writing and reading. There is no dependence on the data - a rookie mistake. Use an image sequence or time to late VI to have clusters of error wiring through establishing the data dependence.

  • The good examples of the construction and analysis of the data in bytes?

    Hi all

    Very soon, I'll have to find a way to build messages to bytes to send to a serial port and a serial port to receive and review to the basis of events out of...

    However, before I delve into the complexities of the serial port communication and VISA, etc... I would just like to see some examples of working mainly with data of bytes.

    I found how to get a digital constant the byte value... the binary representations signed and unsigned, etc..

    However, if I could find a simple example or tutorial just to see how to assemble the byte-code... and how to analyze it, it would prove invaluable for me to study.  I've never really worked at the byte level / binary front... and a few examples with LV would be very practical.

    Anyone know of any good links out there something like this?

    I'll eventually be sending 5 bytes out I need to build... and will receive 9 bytes in, each of which I need to parse out and respond...

    Links or information GREATLY appreciated.  I'm pretty decent analysis of the chains, real expressions, etc... but never worked with the construction and analysis of the data in bytes.

    Thank you in advance,

    Cayenne

    If you are comfortable with binary data, you can use the Boolean charts. Look at the number of table Boolean and array Boolean functions numbers. Instead of masking with an AND, you can easy to use array index to check a bit particular.

  • The analysis of the Variables of e/s channel properties

    I have a situation in which I would like to configure the Daq on a cRIO since an interface of configuration on a Windows host. In particular, I would like to get IO addresses Variable for all analytical engine channels configured on the cRIO. The Setup program runs on the Windows host and impossible to deploy any demon on the RT which could question the material. He needs run as if the cRIO is not present.

    The configuration program is part of the same project as the cRIO, so my thought was to analyse the project to find corresponding topics. Here's a post that does something very similar:

    https://decibel.NI.com/content/docs/doc-16630

    However, this has several problems. This example was written in 2011. I am using 2015. Apparently, the properties have changed since then. Children' find' (it is no longer named "children []") does not give me the chassis on my 9068 reference. Instead, I could use the property "Items Owned []", which gives a bunch of things, and then I search the TypeString of these things until I have find one that is "Chassis". Fair enough. Then the ref chassis gives me the Modules and the Modules of give me the channels. Seems pretty good. But all I get are the names of channel. I can't find all the properties that define the type of module or the direction of IO. For example, I would like to know if a variable is a Boolean or real, and if it is a path of entry or exit. You can deduct that the names 'standards', if the project has not been changed to allow giving them a meaningful name to create or. But it looks like there should be a way to find these properties directly.

    Any ideas?

    TIA,

    DaveT

    I think that the analysis of the project tree is a quite fragile strategy that you should know already. AFAIK the OR sanctioned for this sort of thing for a few years now is to use the API of the System Configuration. Yes, it's a pretty involved API and need you a little time to learn how to get the specific information you are interested in. Fortunately there are some examples that you can use to start with.

  • The analysis of the data of a string of series

    Alert LabVIEW Express 7

    Sorry, all I have to work with and there is no budget at the moment to upgrade.

    Hello, I am in phase 1 (data transfer reliable to labview) 24/7 of my small Miettinen, who is to display and record data environmental Lab 24/7 our Fisher 02-403 digital barometer that has a serial port. In fact, it came with the software, but no one here seems to like use it so I'll try to find something more intuitive. I can't find any info at all about I/O with this device, so I'm reverse engineering. I'm sure that you cannot write anything to this device only read.

    I started with the connection of the device and the interface with NOR measure and automation and received the following string: P,43,1019,44,31,01,0023.0\r\n.

    I tried to use the Labview 7 Express e/s Companion Instrument, selected 1 COMM, changed the timeout to 5000 (trial and error), added a step reading and analysis, ran and received the following string: P, 43,0999, 44,41, 01,0018.0, XX. After well guess, I determined that the values I have in bold change with the environment and the other 3 are always the same idea 9no what they represent). Alphabetical 1 in bold represents the tendency of climate S sunny = P = C sunny cloudy = etc., the value 2 is the atmospheric pressure in hPa, the 3rd is % relative humidity and the last is the temperature in Deg. C.

    At first, I tried to create simply chips for data I want and operation loop the wizard of e/s in awhile, but often error messages obtained suggesting that I need to define all the tokens in the string. I did it and it worked, then I opened the front panel to access the underlying schemas whence I came with the attached VI. I left this race for more than 24 hours, no error, seems good.

    My question on this forum is, can I simplify this VI losing a part of the analysis of the data that I don't need at this point?

    Please let me know if you can not access this VI maybe I can do a screenshot or something.

    Thank you

    Doug

    Yes, it can be simplified to just a bit.

    Since you are new to LabVIEW, you can start with the basic tutorial.

  • error analysis in the file c:\program files (x 86) \hp\digital imaging\bin\hpqscloc\1033.xml

    Hi all..

    I had this problem for a while now, but now its got to the point where I can't scan anything now or the other.

    If I try to click on the HP Solution Center, all I get is a popup saying "error analysis in the file c:\program files (x 86) \hp\digital imaging\bin\hpqscloc\1033.xml.

    I had a link to the screen so that I could use my scanner, but now it will not work, and I tried uninstalling and reinstalling every driver HP & file I can find, but I'm not getting anywhere.  Any ideas?

    IM using a laptop Toshiba Satellite C660D-1 and can connect to my HP Officejet 6500 has more (E710 n) by usb and wireless network.

    IM using 64 bit Win 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1, with an AMD E - 450 APU Radeon HD Graphics and 6 GB of ram.

    Its a cell phone works, so reformatting wouldn't the best solution, even if it's as well as I would have originally been.

    Any other suggestions would be appreciated

    Hi DavRao

    Thanks for the answer... Sorry that I won't be back for you so far, I ended up going out on the road all week.

    I had already seen the advice below on the first page I've found in research to help, but I forgot to mention that I had already tried.

    I have a drive and downloaded another copy of my drivers, but at no time I found L4uninstall.exe

    Also, I do not consider the L1, L2 and L3 uninstall that I've seen mentioned previously...

    I found the uninslaller on the HP Web sites, and runing it me have once step 1, a second round was stage 2, stage 3, stage 4.

    By now, I got desperate and tried everything I thought that could help to remove all traces of services in msconfig, uninstall everything related to HP, I even backed up and then deleted (in desperation) and the entered boot records of HP.

    Nothing helps. Uninstall would start to remove the drivers, but just before it finished every time, it would start to recede and that should give up then.

    I ran a system restore to before you start tweaking options, etc, just so that everything was back to normal, but still does not...

    Then downloaded and installed "Iobit Advanced Uninstaller" (100% free to use)

    http://www.iobit.com/advanceduninstaller.php

    This allows to uninstall all references of HP and its first rotation used the regular unilstall sequence and didn't, but then he gave me the choice of force uninstall...

    He gave me options of backup/backup so that if things went wrong, it could be cancelled... and it all uninstalled... Then authorized registry references and a set much more that I never would have found manually.

    After that restart 99% of HP had disappeared...  I then used CCleaner (100% free to use)

    http://www.Piriform.com/CCleaner

    It cleaned all the cookies for leftovers, abandoned the entries in registry etc...

    I was on the moon...

    HP full software downloaded again, just to be sure, I got later and he ran...

    It was the same version that I had often tried to install above all that I had been unable to remove, but this time, the options and the stadiums were completely different, it was as if my laptop had never seen a HP printer before and has been learning new.

    Installed perfectly, (with all updates and shopping addons unchecked)

    My scanner now works on the whish network wireless its NEVER done in almost 2 years.

    All the drivers are up to date, where as before, I often saw up to 10 versions of my printer all the tag errors, even if the printer would work for basic operations...

    IM happy now IM 100% healed...

    All this thanks to 2 bits of free software that I am now keeping the hand on lol...

    Hope this helps someone else with similar issues
