The following is swiped from an old technical bulletin and is a good starting point. You should run guide with the -r option on the file and use its output for the variables below. However, there's nothing like getting a small sample of the records in the file - maybe 1 percent, and creating a small test file to play around with. You can play with CONFIGURE.FILE and memresize to find the best parameters, then use those, with an increased modulo to size the real file. For what it's worth, I generally find that smaller split and load numbers, such as 20/10, work better than larger ones. Of course, that varies from file to file, and there is no absolute rule. = = Formula for determining base modulo, block size, SPLIT_LOAD, and MERGE_LOAD for UniData KEYONLY Dynamic Files Note that the variables used are the same as the DICT items in $UDTHOME/sys/D_UDT_GUIDE. Any calculated values which are not attributes in this dictionary appear in bold italic. Considerations: The following does not take into account the Unix disk record (frame) size so it is best to select a block size based on the number of items you?d like in a group. No one method will provide absolute results but these calculations will minimize level one overflow caused by a high SPLIT_LOAD value. Type 0 works best for most Dynamic Files but it is best to check a small sample via the GROUP.STAT command. Step 1:Determine the blocksize. (Use 4096 unless the Items per group is larger then 35 or less then 2) A) If the MAXSIZ < 1K ITEMSIZE = 10 * MAXSIZ B) If 1 K < MAXSIZ < 3 K ITEMSIZE = 5 * MAXSIZ C) If MAXSIZ > 3 K ITEMSIZE = 5 * (AVGSIZ + DEVSIZ ) Once you determine the item size, use it to determine the NEWBLOCKSIZE.

Re: [U2] Calling a subroutine on an MV field from an I-Descriptor
The subroutine needs to do a READ for each value in the multi-valued argument passValue. You could also do a TRANS() function, which has this loop built in, within the routine. Note that individual elements of a dynamic array (multi-valued field) can be null, so your null test must be inside the loop. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
[U2] Unidata split/merge loads
I'm seeking some advice from others on reasonable parameters for a KEYONLY dynamic hashed file on unidata. We use them, but I'd like others thoughts as I think we can get some better performance with more optimal choices for split and merge loads. In short, the file has a numeric, sequential key with records that vary wildly in size (hence the use of KEYONLY). The default split/merge values are 60/40, but I've seen others casually mention the use of 20/10 as 'more aggresive' values. Yes, I've RTFM but would rather hear from others using these in production. Any advice appreciated.

[U2] Calling a subroutine on an MV field from an I-Descriptor
I'm trying to call a subroutine for each value of an I-Descriptor, but
without much luck. The subroutine looks like:
SUBROUTINE D.CURRDELITEM (RetValue, passValue)
COMMON /CURRDELITEM_variables/ ARTLEDGER.FV
InvId= TRIM(passValue)
RetValue = ''
IF NOT(ASSIGNED(ARTLEDGER.FV)) THEN
OPEN '', 'ARTLEDGER' TO ARTLEDGER.FV ELSE RETURN
END
READ TrInvRec FROM ARTLEDGER.FV, InvId THEN
RetValue = 1
END ELSE
* RetValue = '0'
RetValue = OCONV(InvId, 'MX')
END
RETURN
END
I have a file with multiple invoice#s in field# 35 (INVS):
035 77]79]81]82]84]85]86]87]89
The key is "790*4/1". An I-Descriptor named CURRDEL looks like:
002 CATS(REUSE(@ID:'*'), @RECORD<35>)
gives me:
LIST ARTMASTER "790*4/1" INVS CURRDEL 06:03:34pm 12 Dec 2005 PAGE1

86 790*4/1*86
87 790*4/1*87
89 790*4/1*89
1 records listed.
However, I want each key in the "DEL..." column to be passed to a program

Can anyone help. Thanks in advance.

Going from memory here, but I think if you send the duplex code at the top of the page you then just print the first page, then do some sort of "PAGE ON UNIT", then print the second page. The printer should stick it on the back itself.

Esc = char(27) PJL.Cmd = '@PJL ' UEL.Cmd = Esc : '%-12345X' PJL.TYPE = 'DEFAULT ' PO.ID = 'YYY' execute "SETPTR ,80,60,2,0,1,BRIEF,NHEAD,NFMT,NOEJECT,AS PO_":PO.ID:",AT FRONT" printer on print UEL.Cmd : PJL.Cmd PRINT PJL.Cmd : 'DEFAULT ORIENTATION=PORTRAIT' PRINT UEL.Cmd PRINT 'XXX' END --Bill -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Gallen Sent: Monday, December 12, 2005 3:47 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] UniBasic PCL/PJL and the printer.. > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Kevin King > Sent: Monday, December 12, 2005 3:04 PM > To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org > Subject: RE: [U2] UniBasic PCL/PJL > > > Bill, could you be more specific as to the kinds of problems you're > having? > --- > u2-users mailing list > u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org > To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] UniBasic PCL/PJL
I show ESC:&l1S to be "Long Edge Binding", in other words if you flip the paper (in portrait) over the text will be in the same direction for flipping the pages side to side (like a book) short edge binding would have the text in opposite direction, for flipping the pages up (like a steno notepad). I'm not sure what you mean by printing both sides on one side? Is that trying to get 2 8 1/2 x 11's on 1 11 x 17 side? That might be more of a printer specific command, which would use an extended custom form of PJL. (ex. Canon IR's use @COMMENT for their extended commands).

More specifically...it is printing both sides on one side. print Esc : '&a1G' ;* "Print the logical page on the specified physical page, FRONT side" print text.for.side.one print Esc : '&a2G' ;* "Print the logical page on the specified physical page, BACK side" print text.for.side.two print Esc : '&L1S' ;* "Prints both sides" I expect that this code is PCL and I need to do something different like PJL. --Bill -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brutzman, Bill Sent: Monday, December 12, 2005 2:41 PM To: 'u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org' Subject: [U2] UniBasic PCL/PJL I was unable to locate any sample code on the U2UG website.

RE: [U2] UniBasic PCL/PJL
and one thing I found on our printer Canon IR, We had to use the code char(27):"&a[0,1,2]G" for advance to next, front or back page, vs using the char(12) to go to the next page.

Re: [U2] SOX question
These subjects -- compliance with regulations like SOX and other
"quality-focused controls" are near and dear to my heart. And I have some
opinions and perhaps information about them. Hence a long-ish post. Maybe it
will help someone, somewhere.
The worst thing that happened as a result of the new SOX regulations is that
IT suckered ourselves with a double punch. First, we flat-out refused to
take a proactive part in this. We whined and whinged and wheedled and
wrangled our way out of things - developing strategies to AVOID DITCH and
DODGE the requirements -- energy and intelligence that could've been well
used in coming up with ways to BENEFIT from it. As a result the driving
force behind the compliance came from other parts of our organizations.
Battle lines were drawn. Overcompensation was rife. So -- water under the
bridge, but if your procedures are over-blown, cumbersome and
counter-productive CHANGE THEM. Nobody here is going to argue with a
straight-face that whacking away in live with no controls is BETTER, are
they? Find the sweet-spot. Push back. Make suggestions. The auditors
will buy into a lot of well thought out reasonable procedures. Not just buy
into, but jump on.
Many of my customers are small enough organizations, or small enough IT
shops anyway, that the segregation of duties was going to be a stumbling
block. But we put some controls into place to prevent a programmer from
testing their own software or from promoting their own change. And I
haven't seen any auditor balk at it. So we didn't have to add new staff, or
train somebody over in purchasing to do rollouts...we put our
checks-and-balances in place from within.
Similarly every company -- not just in our U2 world, but every company --
has a requirement to SEE a problem on live, perhaps even to FIX a problem
on live. That might be software, that might be data. We came up with
procedures and controls that accommodate and even capitalize on this -- and
which are compliant and have passed audit. When an auditor says "you cant
make any changes on live" you can respond with "This is how we make sure it
doesn't happen casually, and here are our controls and procedures (and
audits) for when it needs to happen". Voila! Everyone is happy.
As far as "going around" controls --
First, this constitutes fraud and the IT staff need to understand
that. It is (and should be) a "firing" offense to go around the controls,
just because you know how. {I always liken this to locking your convertible.
A rag-top can be easily compromised, but nobody doubts that slashing through
someone's convertible to take their car or things in their car is a CRIME.
And honest people won't do it.) The procedures that folks are expected to
follow have to be reasonable enough that everyone can be reasonably expected
to follow them.
Most importantly: remember the purpose of the SOX legislation. It
is for the prevention and detection of financial fraud. If a control is not
completely secure ask yourself "how attractive is this opportunity for
financial fraud?" Analyze and put risk values on your controls. Then spend
your time and effort where the risk lives. (This exercise can actually be
quite fun -- "How could I financially defraud my company from an IT
perspective?")
As an aside, the remote-VOC stuff in Universe (but sadly not
available in Unidata) can be used to really tie down some of the "go around"
methods described in this list over the last few days.
I'm going to get off my soapbox now, but naturally I'm going to drop in that
PRC is a software development life-cycle tool that can provide the IT
controls and procedures (the framework) to immediately and effectively meet
the requirements of SOX (and other regulatory compliance) while promoting
best practices and STREAMLINING productivity.
