While working with model, the property of modelservice amazes me is, if you search an item with PK, you’ll get the result. If the item is search in HMC or backoffice, while returning the search result, it also gives the type code. How is this possible? All the items are stored in single DB table? In that case also, how come when a deleted item is searched, it returns the type code? See the screen shot below where item is deleted and item search returns type code Fig – 1: Searching item (System-Types-Items)        Fig 2: The PK is appended with Type code defined in items.xml PK is generated with the following combination. ·        Type code       Time stamp (create time) If you make the PK in binary number and take last 14 digit and convert back to decimal and you’ll get the type code. Consider the example I have. PK is 8842394501143. If I convert in Binary, it comes as 0000000000000000000010...

While doing support, we need to check some of the scenario and their result in the production server. The beanshell and groovy script comes very handy on this. Below are the few example of how I used/using it in my various project. This is very handy to test your data as well 1.        Check the log: Sometimes getting server access is very painful in the enterprise landscape. However, person joined in the project is required to work as soon as they inducted in the project. In this scenario, below groovy script is very useful.   Please note, run these in the rollback mode unless and until the otherwise is required. a.        The application is running from the container. For the POC, it was running in the tomcat server (tomcat/bin). To know the exact directory, run the below script in groovy console println "pwd".execute().text Below will be printed in the output tab /usr/sap/hybris/bin/platform/tomcat/bin ...

There are some issues reported for SonarCube 6.7 integration with Hybris. The recommended version is Sonar 6.4 or less. For Sonar 6.4, there is no need to build the database. Please follow the below steps to use sonarcube with Hybris. For the POC, we have used Hybris 6.4.0.2 and sonar 6.4. Sonar Cube configuration 1.        Download sonar 6.4 and install/unzip. 2.        For the POC, we have used Embedded Database (default). But multiple database is supported. Access management can also be implemented. However, for the simplicity purpose, it is not used for the POC 3.        The java properties can be set at the sonar.properties file (not used in our case). Example of the property is sonar.web.javaOpts=-Xmx512m -Xms128m -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError which can be enabled in the sonar.properties file under conf folder of the installed folder. 4.      ...
