I am an E N F P!!!

I just finalized my second Myers-Briggs type indicator test. It turns out that I am an E N F P. Nice to know, but what does it mean to be an E N F P… I found the below description on the myersbriggs.org site:

Warmly enthusiastic and imaginative. See life as full of possibilities. Make connections between events and information very quickly, and confidently proceed based on the patterns they see. Want a lot of affirmation from others, and readily give appreciation and support. Spontaneous and flexible, often rely on their ability to improvise and their verbal fluency.

I also found this amazing description on the www.personalitypage.com/ENFP.html site:

ENFPs are warm, enthusiastic people, typically very bright and full of potential. They live in the world of possibilities, and can become very passionate and excited about things. Their enthusiasm lends them the ability to inspire and motivate others, more so than we see in other types. They can talk their way in or out of anything. They love life, seeing it as a special gift, and strive to make the most out of it.

All in all it sounds great!!!… but

Then I started thinking who else has the same type as me and how do they compare? I found a great collection of “personality friends“. Bill Cosby, Ellen DeGeneres, Robin Williams, Walt Disney and Will Smith just to mention a few. More interesting is that I found other interesting people like Hugo Chavez, Muammar Gaddafi and Fidel Castro

So to sum up I share personality trades with the guy who invented Mickey Mouse a talk show host and at least one dictator… hmmmm

 

If you know your MBTI type please add it as a comment – maybe we are more than one E N F P…

How many RFC connections do you have and which users authorize the connections?

Management of RFC usually lives its own life – sometimes under stringent control, but more often without any or highly limited control or documentation.

In a new environment it is easy to start in the right way with a controlled solution. But how to start the analysis of which RFC connections actually exists and from a security perspective, which are the users authorizing the connection?

Good news, SAP actually offers a standard report to collect and present all the information. The report can be executed using the standard transaction code RSRFCCHK.

Once you have executed the report on every system, you have a good starting point for aggregating the information across your entire SAP environment. The combined information will allow you to gain a unique inside into not only which connections actually exists, but also which users authorize the connections and thereby the authorizations for each of them.

Happy RCF hunting!
