Comments

  1. Sony- I'm new to the ATG world, in a new role in a new company and am hit with the task of resolving disappeared "Browse" functionality in the Business Control Center. This is in the Merchandising bit, and when the "Show:" option is selected in the Browse tab, the tree is missing where it was previously. "Search" functionality works splendidly. I'm thinking something is missing in a config file somewhere, however, no specifics of what happened are available. This first appeared in the production environment, and when users began investigating, a server reboot was done and the same problem replicated in the test environment where the investigation was being conducted. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

ATG Search - search engine tuning settings

In this blog, I am going to list the best tuning settings for ATG Search engine. The AESoapConfig.xml, AESoapWaspConfig.xml  and AEConfig.xml are the xmls referred below and you can find it @  <ATG_DIR>\<Searchx.x>\SearchEngine\<operating_system>\bin\ folder. (1)  Make sure that the AESoapConfig.xml's rwTimeout is less than or equal to routing's readTimeoutMs. You could find the routing's readTimeoutMs @ atg\search\routing\SearchEngineService component.               rwTimeout is the  length of time in seconds to wait before a read or write operation times out on an active connection. The number can be decreased to improve performance. However, a value that is too low could cause slow connections to be prematurely closed. (2)  Adjust the number of engine threads to match the number of CPUs available to the engine. Note that the minimal value for maxThreads and maxSpareThreads is 2, which applies to running with 1 CPU.  However, it is recommended to

Advance Tax/Self Assesment Tax and Interest u/s 234B and 234C

Read more about Tax filing @  http://tips4ufromsony.blogspot.com/2011/07/income-tax-process-and-e-filing.html  . If you are a salaried person there is tax deduction at source (TDS), which takes care of the tax payments for your salary. At the same time, there will be additional liabilities for income like interest on deposits, bonds and even capital gains which might require you to pay Advance Tax. Advance tax has to be paid in several installments in September, December and March. Self-assessment tax is the difference between the tax paid and the tax payable.You can figure out the self-assessment tax amount when you make the final income tax calculation. There is no specific date for paying this tax but it has to be done before you file your income tax return so that no further amount of tax remains to be paid. While computing advance tax, income-tax on the current income has to be first determined and the tax on such income has to be determined. As per section 208, advance tax s
