Re: [Hardhats-members] GT.M V5.0-000 available
I think you have hit the nail on the head with your last sentence. The old RPC broker pretty much required that the server and clients be on the same network to provide secuity for the system because of the way the callback was made to the server. The new broker fixed that but did not work well with previous versions of GT.M, With this new configuration, secure remote connections from CPRS to the server can be set up allowing for ASP use of VistA with GTM on Linux as well as the other platforms while opening only one port.

[KSB] Nothing that existed previously in GT.M has been taken away, so if it worked for you before, it will continue to work for you now.

Usually less often used services are run under xinetd/inetd to save system resources and fine tune security and connection control. [KSB] You are correct. However, I do think that on Linux vs. operating systems like Windows, OpenVMS, z/OS (used to be called OS/390) or even some other flavors of UNIX, process invocation is cheap, and this tends to swing the pendulum towards deployment under inetd/xinetd and the benefits of being able to fine tune things that it allows. In the case of GT.M, since there is no daemon to startup or shut down (the first process to open a database file sets up the shared control structures; the last one out turns off the lights), one of the benefits of deploying a service under inet/xinetd is that when there is no activity, everything is just shut down (i.e., no files open, no processes active). So, it's just a little cleaner. In the case of VistA on GT.M specifically, the new ability to deploy a service under inetd/xinetd allows the new direct connect CPRS GUI to be served by a GT.M process that is started up when the connection request comes in, rather than, for example, a pre-existing process from a pool of processes.

RE: [Hardhats-members] GT.M V5.0-000 available
Under the old CPRS the client connected to the server and then the server opened a connection back to the client this is an older style of making connections between server and client for two way communications. The new CPRS makes one connection from the client and uses this to communicate both ways.

Re: [Hardhats-members] GT.M V5.0-000 available
The old way involved having a listener running on a known port, which would job off a new MUMPS process for each CPRS client. Since the new MUMPS process created a new TCP/IP outgoing socket from the server, the listener only had a minimal load per CPRS client, and thus didn't have to hand off the socket (which is not in the MUMPS standard) nor did it have to start a new listener on the known port, (with the potential of missing a CPRS client connection) when the new listener was taking over. Unfortunately, the old method didn't work when connecting a CPRS client within a NAT or router to a server that also could be within a NAT or router. Since the CPRS client machine had a non-routeable address in that case, it was the equivalent of trying to contact someone by phone where you had their phone extension, but not the main trunk number. The new CPRS process follows the idea that if you can get a socket between the CPRS client and the server, you should simply use that socket. The expectation is that using inetd/xinetd to handle known port management would yield no dropped connections.

Re: [Hardhats-members] GT.M V5.0-000 available
Beautiful Dave, thanks for the clarification. I can remember running into that problem some months back. Socket's are good. Am I correct in assuming that one would have two choices here since there is no daemon process to run. 1. Run/spawn a gtm/mumps process through xinetd/inetd (Is this what is referred to as a new style listener in listener configuration?) 2.

Now, ZTMGRSET et al can be modified to use $I() for GT.M, and should give a small performance boost. Whether such a performance boost is noticeable is unknown - presumably the uses of $I() in VistA didn't creep in unnoticed but were the result of a conscious decision on the part of VA developers to use a non-standard extension for performance or other reasons.

[Hardhats-members] GT.M V5.0-000 available
GT.M V5.0-000 is now available. V5.0-000 is a major release of GT.M. The fact that it has a new top level version number - V5 vs. V4 - means that it has a new database format. There is significant new functionality as well, as described in the V5.0-000 Release Notes (http://www.sanchez-gtm.com/user_documentation/targets/GTM_V5.0-000_Release_Notes.html). Even though a database format change affects every index and data block in the database, GT.M V5.0-000 comes with an upgrade procedure that operates mostly in parallel with normal application operation. Stand alone access is required typically only for a few seconds. Note that for applications deployed in a logical dual site configuration, the upgrade can be accomplished with continuous application availability. The most significant enhancements in this release are as follows: 1. Transaction counts are increased from 32 bits to 64 bits. 2. M names can be up to 31 characters long. 3. A new intrinsic function, $INCREMENT(glvn[,expr]), is provided to atomically increment a global variable by a numeric value. 4. Network services can now be written in GT.M and deployed under inetd/xinetd. 5. On the secondary of an application deployed in a logical dual site configuration, helper processes can now be used to speed the rate at which updates can be committed to disk. 6. There is now an option for a database file to allow existing global variable nodes with null subscripts but to prohibit setting/updating global variables with null subscripts. 7. On OpenVMS, upper and lower case labels in M routines can be the target of a call from an external C routine to an M routine. 8. GT.M traditionally collated a null subscript between numeric subscripts and string subscripts. The M standard specifies that null subscripts be collated before numeric subscripts. When a database file is created, it can now be created to use either traditional GT.M collation or M standard collation for null subscripts. Please see the announcement of the release (http://www.sanchez-gtm.com/news/news_060605.htm). GT.M for x86 GNU/Linux used under the GNU General Public License (GPL) can be downloaded from Source Forge (http://sourceforge.net/projects/sanchez-gtm). Software for customers who have purchased support can be downloaded from the GT.M FTP site. Please also visit the new documentation area in the GT.M project page (http://www.sanchez-gtm.com/user_documentation/user_doc.htm). Henceforth, we intend to make all documentation available there.

This sounds really impressive and I don't even understand half of it! Thanks to everyone involved. On Monday 06 June 2005 07:12 pm, K.S. Bhaskar wrote: GT.M V5.0-000 is now available.
