 Subject: [U2] [UV] Phantom Limits

 Hi,

 I'm just reading up on phantoms, and saw this little note in the HELP...

 There is a system-wide limit on the number of  processes  that
 you  can initiate. If you can start no more processes when you
 issue a PHANTOM command, the following message appears:

 NO FREE PHANTOMS
 You cannot run a phantom process now.
 Wait a while, then try again.

 I was wondering if anyone knows off the top of their head, what
 determines this limit? Is it a static number, if so what, or is it user
 definable?

 Thanks
 Peter

I was under the impression that the number of phantoms is limited to the 
licensed number of users less the number of users on the system.  In other 
words, each phantom used a license.  Am I out incorrect?

Re: [U2] Unidata Shared Memory Tuning Whitepaper

RE: [U2] [UV] Phantom Limits

2006-11-27 Thread Brian Leach

Phantoms on uv do not consume a regular licence. However, certain functions
- notably those that are socket related - will cause a phantom to consume an
'iPhantom' licence. This was to prevent unscrupulous sites circumventing the
normal licencing by purchasing a small number of users and having a load of
phantoms act as listeners for interactive processing.

That's not the case for all MultiValue databases however.

Regards,

Brian

[U2] UniObjects for .NET - Reference / Experience / Advice

2006-11-27 Thread Ray Methvin
I received the following inquiry from an end user and would like to get
the group's feedback.  The site is installing a new SQL based case
management system and is wanting to bridge between the SQL application
and an existing UniVerse application.

At this point we are exploring the use of UniObjects as an interfacing
mechanism to keep our UniVerse data in synchronization with an external
data source. I wonder if any of you could possibly help with a reference
- a project you are aware of, at a customer site that would be willing
to talk with us about their experience with the UniObjects for .NET SDK.


I am looking for a technical or an IT project manager type of contact -
someone who could describe real-world pitfalls and gotchas of using
UniObjects as middleware running in a Windows Service, or in an ASP.Net
application (either UI or Web Service), with an objective to getting a
sense of the level of maturity and reliability and most importantly
limitations, as we are hoping to leverage this technology for a
long-term strategy.

Thanks again for any help.

Is there a limit to iPhantoms?  
Is the limit a system wide limit?
Is the limit tunable?

I have 10.1.11 i386 UV license with 41 users and over the weekend I had 218
phantoms and one real user active.  It stopped at 218 phantoms, because I
ran out of memory to load another process.

Several years ago at another client I ran into a limit while I was doing a

approximately 50 phantoms.
