Transactions involving several RM in Tuxedo

• Transactions involving multiple caches and a database

  Hi all
  
  I'm curious to know if the following is possible thanks to the support of transaction consistency.
  
  I have the need to write data in two caches and a database of my Tomcat container, and the entire operation must be atomic.
  
  Example:
  
  Write in the database (it is NOT via a dumps)
  Write caching 1 (uses continuous writing to database)
  Write to the cache 2 (uses continuous writing to database)
  
  If all fails, the entire transaction needs to restore. This feels like an XA transaction, but looks like it doesn't work as I expect because the cache must be the last resource, but I have two caches. The order of operations is not important.
  
  Thank you
  
  Rob

  When you use write-through is here (as I know) no way to get a fully transactional behavior (assuming you have more than one cache node) since each node is responsible for the persistence of its own data items (they each will use a separate connection to the database).

  If you are using as a reason ' hiding beside of "this can be done using XA transaction. As long as the two caches belong to the same cache service they count as a resource unique "last"...

• Query SQL involving several tables

  I have a scenario in SQL where, for each position there are associated tags. A user is the one who makes the post and that he belongs to a given location. The location corresponds to a given country.
  
  I create tables such as
  

  CREATE TABLE post_table 
  (
  post_id VARCHAR(20), 
  user_id VARCHAR(20),
  PRIMARY KEY(post_id)
  );
  
  CREATE TABLE tags_table
  (
     post_id VARCHAR(20),
     tags VARCHAR(20),
     PRIMARY KEY(tags, post_id),
     FOREIGN KEY(post_id) REFERENCES post_table(post_id) ON DELETE CASCADE
  );
  
  
  CREATE TABLE location
  (
  location_id VARCHAR(20), 
  country VARCHAR(20),
  PRIMARY KEY (location_id)
  );
  
  CREATE TABLE user_info
  (
  user_id VARCHAR(20), 
  location_id VARCHAR(30), 
  PRIMARY KEY (user_id),
  FOREIGN KEY(location_id) REFERENCES location(location_id) ON DELETE CASCADE
  );

  Now, I insert values into these tables as
  

  INSERT INTO post_table VALUES( 'p1', 'u1' );
  INSERT INTO post_table VALUES( 'p2', 'u1' );
  INSERT INTO post_table VALUES( 'p3', 'u2' );
  INSERT INTO post_table VALUES( 'p4', 'u3' );
  INSERT INTO post_table VALUES( 'p5', 'u2' );
  
  INSERT INTO tags_table VALUES( 'p1', 'US Open' );
  INSERT INTO tags_table VALUES( 'p1', 'Real good' );
  INSERT INTO tags_table VALUES( 'p1', 'Madrid' );
  INSERT INTO tags_table VALUES( 'p2', 'Madrid' );
  INSERT INTO tags_table VALUES( 'p3', 'Rossoneri' );
  INSERT INTO tags_table VALUES( 'p4', 'Milan' );
  INSERT INTO tags_table VALUES( 'p4', 'Los Angeles' );
  INSERT INTO tags_table VALUES( 'p5', 'Rossoneri' );
  
  INSERT INTO location VALUES( 'loc1', 'Spain');
  INSERT INTO location VALUES( 'loc2', 'England');
  
  INSERT INTO user_info VALUES( 'u1', 'loc1' );
  INSERT INTO user_info VALUES( 'u2', 'loc2' );
  INSERT INTO user_info VALUES( 'u3', 'loc1' );

  Now I have to query for each country, show them more SUV tag (s)
  
  So, for these data, the result should be like
  

  Country              MostTags
  Spain                Madrid
  England              Rossoneri

  Please help me to write this query guys.

  Hello

  Something like that

  select      country
       , tags from
             (
               select      l.country
                 , t.tags
                 , dense_rank() over (     partition by l.country
                                order by count(*) desc) drn
            from      location l
                 , user_info u
                 , post_table p
                 , tags_table t
            where      l.location_id = u.location_id
                 and p.user_id=u.user_id
                 and p.post_id=t.post_id
            group by l.country
                 , t.tags
       )
  where drn <=1   -- rank depends on like 1,2 or 3 popular tags for each country

• Transaction and transaction AppModule Taskflow both are the same or not?

  Transaction and transaction AppModule Taskflow both are the same or not? or what are the differences between these two operations.

  Workflow transaction is different from the transaction data base (I mean the transaction returned by am.getDBTransaction ()). Each workflow is associated with a data control framework. A data control framework is the container that is associated with a workflow that contains several instances of data control. The ADF Model layer exposes the DataControlFrame interface to manage a transaction involving data controls in the framework. DataControlFrame interface exposes methods such as:

  • beginTransaction()
  • Commit()
  • Rollback()
  • createSavepoint () - Note that it is the backup point maintained by the controller of Oracle ADF and it is similar to the point of backup of database
  • isTransactionDirty()

  Task Transaction flow

  There are four transaction options that a stubborn workflow can use (notice that unbounded flow task does not support transactions):

  1. No Transaction controller: delimited task called flow does not participate in the management of transactions any controller ADF.
  2. Always Begin new Transaction: A new transaction begins when the stubborn workflow is entered, regardless of whether a transaction is in progress. The new transaction ends when the stubborn workflow stops.
  3. Always Use Existing Transaction: When it is called, the stubborn workflow participate in an existing transaction already underway.
  4. Use the existing if Possible Transaction: when it is called, the stubborn workflow is involved either in an existing transaction if there is, or starts a new transaction when the entrance to the stubborn workflow, if one does not exist.

• Best way to code structure to control several instruments

  Hello

  I am a novice but not inexperienced labview programmer. I'm writing a labview code to control a physical optical experiement. This involves writing a GUI which of your interfaces then with a variety of instruments (such as motorized turntables, lock-in amplifiers, power supplies, Renault, etc...) all connected to the computer through various means. All the instruments are delivered with their own labview drivers to complete their most important functions. Essentially, the instruments will operate independently, but occasionally, will be a set of steps involving several instruments (such as move, take a step, move again,...)

  My question is what is the best way to structure the top level VI where all GUI controls? I have currently the code structured so that each instrument has an event structure that manages keys and commands for it. Simple events like the movement are dealt with in the cases where structures themselves while queues and occurrences are then used to handle more complicated events in external loops. It is an appropriate way to handle this scenario, or is it that most commonly architecture?

  Thank you for the help

  You play with fire when using several structures of the event. My preferred method for executing an instrument that has a 'stream' mode (example: a spectrometer where you always see the spectrum), is to provide that it is a clean line, with a dequeue item. The 'element' may have a message part (or State) in the form of an enum or string, as well as some data in the form of a Variant. You want to set a parameter, you could send a cluster containing the enum "Set the parameter" as well as the value of the parameter in the form of a Variant. The default case would be to get a spectrum and update a graph (or send another message to a user interface management loop that updates the chart).

  You can open the project template QMH who comes with LabVIEW to see how a line would work, and then you can add multiple queues for different instruments. I keep the new loops in their own SubVIs and reference to the queue in a global functional to clean the main schema.

  Here is an example of what your data of the module flow record might look like (the string constant empty considered double quotes is by default to expire the message dequeue)

  

• Connection of several 6248

  Hello all!

  I have currently 2 x PC6248 which are stacked with stacking YY741 module and 2 x cables Dell F4XF - F4XF 1 m between them and that's all working well.  # See the battery port shows that xg1 and xg2 are used on both switches xg3 xg4 is both down.  It's what I expected.

  I need to add more than two switches, but they will be at a distance.  The first would be about 15 meters and the second would be between 75 and 100 meters.  Can I use cables of F4XF-F4XF that eager to 'stack' switches and if so, where can I find this length cables?  If I can do that, can I go out with just 1 cable to the remote switches?  (Yes, I know that it would be only a 12 GB of interconnection).

  If the answer above is no, then I can put 2 x gbic ports xg3/xg4 on both the existing switches and and 4 x gbic in xg1 - xg4 on new switches and connect interconnect two new switches on optical fiber LC - LC, going to this length?  (Yes, I know/xg1 xg2 are not usable in the existing stack).  If I can do it this way, what gbic would I get?  Can I use any LC - LC gbic or are there specific gbic, should I use?  And how to configure all switches?  I have several VLANs in the existing stack.  My config is attached below (if you see errors, feel free to say yes lol), it's pretty basic.  All chassis #1 ports are in use with some on chassis #2.  Currently, with only 2 switches in the battery, everything works perfectly.

  This distance is too far for stacking. Module stacking both 10GE CX4 module can be configured for each role (Ethernet or stacking). By default, each module works according to its module ID. Change the role of a module, a reboot is necessary for the change to take effect. However, I believe that the distance for stacking cables max is about 3 meters. And the limit of CX4 cable is 15 meters.

  Other modules for the back of the switch are a 10GBase-T, part # X901C. The 10GBase-T module settle only in 2 Bay (right when viewing the back Bay). And a module SFP + 10GE, part # U691D.

  Combo on the front of the switch ports ports SFP 1 GB. Combo ports have a combined input and output of the PHY chip. Only the optical port or RJ-45 port ACR be used individually, but not at the same time. Any cable is connected will first use the port PHY.

  The fiber option that should meet your needs is a SFP - 1 G - SX transceiver. This transceiver uses the LC multimode fiber and it is good to 550 m. part # 407 - BOU

  Here is a document that passes on the available module options.

  With switch connections involving several VLANs, you will want to use connections in Trunk mode. For the switch connections you do not use portfast.

  # interface port-channel 1

  # switchport mode Trunk

  # switchport Trunk letter vlan add 2,3,4,5,6

  I hope this helps answer some of your questions.

• Jolt 1.2 Tuxedo 6.5 on Solaris 10 sparc is not establish connection

  Hello
  
  I installed Tuxedo 6.5 on Solaris10 sparc because my application was not compiled with a later version of Tuxedo. Then I installed Jolt1.2 there. I configured the tuxedo and all the application servers. While startup FINGS server starts but JSL fails with the JOLT_CAT:1008 error: could not establish connection to the server / / 10.10.100.110:9500. After that, it gives Tuxedo error 'tpsvrinit() failed '. As had been suggested in some other messages I already checked if shipping is free or not with the command "netstat - a | grep 9500» There is no coming out to the above command. But the same configuration works very well with Solaris 8 sparc. IP address of the machine is 10.10.100.110 and the hostname is "systest".
  
  The ULOG file extract is as below:

  When I run several version of Tuxedo JSL starts without any problem. It establishes the connection easily. But my applications cannot be recompiled with a superior version of tuxedo that's why I am forced to use 6.5. I am confused, whether all the problem of different versions of jerk and Tuxedo or it's my configuration problem. Kindly help me.

  Shashi,

  Tuxedo 6.5 needs a patch to run on versions of Solaris or the WSNAT_CAT:1008 or JOLT_CAT:1008 "error: could not establish listening on the network + netaddr address +" message may appear.
  The thread could not establish listening on the network address describes a similar problem with the WSL and the ULOG in that thread also "TUXEDO Version 6.5 SunOS 5.5.1".

  You can get the fix last roll of Oracle support. (It would be even better to move to a later version of Tuxedo, Tuxedo 6.5 being beyond its end date of life on Solaris. I hope some compilation problems, you later with Tuxedo releases can be solved rather easily.)

  Kind regards

• Difference between direct TCP &amp; WAP

  Hello

  I'm confused on the difference between 2 Protocol: direct TCP & WAP.

  What really happens for each protocol? What are the differences?

  (Of course the connection string for OpenConection is difference but what the architecture of the network)?

  How does WAP support roaming is not the case for direct TCP?

  Thank you

  Hai

  Ah. If I have understood correctly, you're asking about TCP and WAP as technologies, not on the programming for them.

  I recommend you to read wapforum.org technical WAP white paper to learn more about WAP technology.

  WAP is more than a communications architecture, involving several layers of the OSI model. It defines the protocols at the transport level application; It does not have the network, linking of data or physical layers. Analogue to the TCP WAP worldwide is WTP - Wireless Transaction Protocol. Similarly, WML - Wireless Markup Language - is the equivalent in WAP in HTML format. WAP 2.0 introduced the TCP, IP, and HTTP protocols to WAP.

  Carriers have invested heavily in technology WAP and generally provide strong support throughout their networks. He can't even for TCP/IP directly (although it seems change quickly).

  There is nothing inherent TCP that prevents homelessness; in fact, it has been around for years. My impression is that carriers have just does a better job of integration WAP cellular technology.

  Also, I believe that it can be added cost of data to users for direct TCP using compared to WAP 2.0.

  The sticky thread by Peter Strange looks at some of this. Others on this forum are better informed of what I am and I hope that they will quickly correct any inaccuracies and also provide you with a better answer.

• User problem

  Dear gurus,

  I have a strange problem with the oracle DB here.

  I joined a company DBA, they have a database with 3 users.

  each runs a select statement to extract the most primarykey_id of the table.

  A user takes milliseconds to get the result.

  Other two take more than 5 currencies... sometimes timeout.

  I find it hard to tackle the issue. Can anyone guide me as to what I can check why these users of DB are on long?

  Thank you

  Saad

  Hello Saad,

  a few ideas:
  put the sessions in trace mode, run the query in each session, run tkprof on the trail.
  Also consider if there is a trigger shot "logon" which could change the settings of the optimizer at the session level.

  Are there transactions involving table when you run the instructions (example: User A has updated several lines, but has not issued a "commit", then the 3 "select max..." is cooked.) In this case, B and C have more work to find the info (they will have to go to the RETURN of copies)?

  When B and C sessions are running, control (of another session) on what they expect.

  Best regards

• How to reset the connection of the OIC during the reception of FAN events.

  Hi all
  
  And thanks in advance.
  
  We would like to use the FAN (Fast Application Notification).
  Our server configuration:
  1 service (context threaded & unique unique).
  Model notify is GIS.
  Service transaction involves / q (tmqforward) and the database to oracle using the BEAK.
  
  We want to reset the OCI connection when it receives the event of failover of FAN.
  Can we push (tpnotify etc.) the FAN event in the (auto) service?
  We can register and receive FAN events.
  
  But:
  Can we call tpbroadcast or tpnotify from the booster FAN?
  Is the same thread?
  is thread-safe tpbroadcast and tpnotify?
  do I need the thread context main service?
  How can I get the thread context main service? (save it in a global?)

• during an update lots of my profile folder has been put in a folder on the desktop marked the old data. How to restore this data file

  During a bet to update, automatic update of windows has started and some how much my profile data has been removed and stored in a file on the desktop. There is a simple and easy way to restore this folder from the current firefox?

  You can use the contents of the Old Firefox Data folder to "roll back" the refresh, but this involves several steps. It's probably even faster than the recovery of individual files and load those into your new profile.

  Check in the folder 'Old data Firefox' update adds a folder with a random semi name on your desktop. If there is only one, that probably has your old settings and Add-ons. If there is more than one, you'll want to work with one who has been updated recently.

  Once you have identified the profile folder, that you want to restore, here is my "old profile resurrection suggested procedure:

  Overview

  Here are the steps described in more detail below:

  1. Create a new Firefox profile
  2. Delete all of this profile folder
  3. Copy in all of the old profile folder

  In this new profile folder you just popped open - NOT the one on your desktop - select all content (you can use Ctrl + a) and delete (you can press Delete on the keyboard).

  Leave this window open, open or switch to your folder of old data of Firefox. Consult your old profile folder. At this level, you should see a folder named bookmarkbackups among other things.

  Select all (Ctrl + a) and copy (or right-click > copy or Ctrl + c).

  Switch to the empty profile folder in another window and paste (or right-click > paste or Ctrl + v). This may take a few minutes because some files are large.

• Establishment of Firefox urging 42.0 refreshed and now my 2 - Fav went modules! Is reversal Possible to undo changes?

  In moments, Firefox "Refresh" made a mess of my selections, custom modules, plugins, toolbars, etc and now fails, 2 - my favorite "go - to" Add - ons are (1) went 1 and (2) the other will not be installed. I would NEVER suggest that Firefox again. I was doing pretty well... Except for several months, Firefox crashes suddenly, and I have to go in to effect Firefox Task Manager, then open Firefox anew. All I can say is, I have to lose my marbles to 'Refresh' Firefox for the second time in a few years, after the first sentence of time due, and the overall results are worse now, the second time. I'm also tired of Firefox crashes.

  Anyway, is the "refresh" which took place in the last hour, reversible? Also, just noticed "old Firefox Data folder ' then he'd ever seen before... is - it related to Firefox refreshing?

  Help?

  Yes, an update moves the entire record of the settings in the folder of old data from Firefox, then Firefox creates a new folder of parameters with selected data in your old folder, not to mention most of the preferences or your extensions.

  You can use the contents of the Old Firefox Data folder to "roll back" the refresh, but this involves several steps. It takes 5 minutes, but it's perhaps faster than the recovery of individual files and load those into your new profile.

  Check in the folder 'Old data Firefox' update adds a folder with a random semi name on your desktop. If there is only one, that probably has your old settings and Add-ons. If there is more than one, you'll want to work with one who has been updated recently.

  Once you have identified the profile folder, that you want to restore, here is my "old profile resurrection suggested procedure:

• rendered savings composited files

  Hi, I'm migrating from iMovie, FCP - x 10 soon and spent time getting used to iMovie, which I see is a kind of final cut PRO - X version lite, or "limited" as it used to be called.  iMovie follows Cinestream, a versatile program, deep NLE editing style I have used for years, which ended in OS9 and are only SD, as well as his age.  However, one thing I need to know about FCP - X, which apparently cannot be done in iMovie, must be able to save a rendered composition.  By composition, I mean a sequence involving several in the form of images, (multi split screen), titles, effects, you name, often involving multiple tracks and then made into a file.  The object must be able to move this file later with any other similar complex renderings - IE, change them without having to re - create the brand-new everywhere.

  The only way I can see happening is to make the entire timeline (cannot make individual sections of iMovie - or can I?)  And I'm leaving the PCF - X is richer in features to allow registration of the various sections composed as renditions files... like I used to do in the old program.

  Sorry if this is too complicated,

  Thank you

  Keith

  YYes, you can export portions of a project.

• How to recover or re - use a backup Time Machine disconnected?

  I had a hard drive will... "Brown" (overcooked SSD, don't know how it happened; "I think it's just a bad disk). Unfortunately, my Time Capsule (backup drive - this is not really a TC of Apple, if it matters) is also very picky. Well, I had a new SSD and cloned the old on SSD so I'm back in business on this effect, but in the process, I unplugged my wayward backup disk in Time Machine (as in, I accidentally said the temperamental player is NOT the source of archive TM). Is it possible to "bless" the backup of this wayward drive to retrieve archive it? I have access to all the files, and I recognize that I really need to get a new, reliable, drive; but in the meantime, is it possible to make the TM to accept the folder Backups.backupdb active as long as the backup plan "current", rather than simply to start with a new in this space?

  BTW, I use OS X 10.11.5. I followed the instructions to Time Machine: how to transfer backups from a current backup disk to a new backup drive - Apple Support, but am concerned about the fact that it is trying to create a new backup rather than press archives, I already. I probably missed in all care, is there a way to fix it?

  The answer might involve several steps.

  but I am concerned that it is trying to create a new backup rather than press archives

  It's still the right to go forward... Once you change the configuration of Time Machine... It will say that it will start a new backup, except if it finds an existing valid backup when it starts. If you have no other choice to the allow him to proceed... If you find it has created a new sparsebundle and started on... cancel the backup, and then try to inherit the old backup.

  See Pondini... a bit outdated but it has information not available anywhere else.
