RE: [U2] UV and SOA

2007-02-09 Thread Brutzman, Bill
Epicor has a "new" ERP system built on a SOA foundation, based on .Net and
SQL.

Their webcast on this product cuts through the megatons of hype and 
focuses on SOA as an inter-process messaging platform.  I found the
presentation to be worthwhile.

Subject: [U2] UV and SOA


Hello List,



Does anyone have any insight into UV and SOA ?  I've just started my
research into finding out what SOA is, and whatever it is can it be used
with UV.  Even tho it's all over the net, I haven't come across anything
that gives me a real world example.



Is anyone currently using the technology with UV ?  If so could you
enlighten me ?  Things like why your using that technology, how is
different from the way you used to do things, etc, or if anyone knows of
a link that gives a working example I'd really appreciate it.



Thx,



Rudy

RE: [U2] Single Part vs. Multi part UniVerse Files

2007-02-09 Thread rbl000
Just wanted to report back to the list what we found.
 
As Stephen O'Neal suggested, indexes appears to have been the problem.  We 
found that the process we were concerned about was updating an indexed field 
that contains 15 values.  In fact, the index contained only 37 unique entries.  
In the single-part file, the largest entry was about 65MB.  Upon further 
inquiry, we found that index was not even useful to the business, so we 
eliminated it.  A test run on the same machine as was used before showed the 
following results:
 
   Single Part   Multi-part Single W/o Index
Run time  Run time   Run time
Batch Process A 00:59:02  00:35:26   01:02:33
Batch Process B 05:42:33  00:28:00   00:57:38
 
While the multi-part file is still faster, it is now close enough for our 
present needs.

Thanks very much for the help!

[U2] [UV] Is there a dbpause for UniVerse?

2007-02-09 Thread David Wolverton
We are working with a client installing a SAN.

Our UniData database is up and running on SAN - quite peppy.  We are using
dbpause/dbresume to do snapshots every 30 minutes on the database.  Less
than 10 seconds to generate the snapshot! UniData doesn't even 'know' that
the files are not attached to the local "D" drives any longer - that "D"
drive is now an iSCSI attachment to a SAN drive across a gigibit connection.
So the move to the SAN was transparent - not even a VOC pointer had to be
touched. VERY cool.

Next database up is the UniVerse machine's files.  But there is no 'dbpause'
in UniVerse (that I can find) -- how do we accomplish the same thing in
UniVerse we do in UniData with dbpause/dbresume - that is, stop/pause writes
to the database (albeit in a potentially incomplete state) so that we can
snapshot the disk and then resume the writes?

Thanks for any hints here!

RE: [U2] [UV] Is there a dbpause for UniVerse? - SUSPEND.FILES ON/OFF

2007-02-09 Thread Stevenson, Charles
SUSPEND.FILES

Here's a raw cut&paste from 10.1 userref.pdf (It looks a little nicer in the 
original):


Use SUSPEND.FILES to suspend UniVerse processes that make changes to files, 
without terminating user processes. You must be a UniVerse Administrator logged 
in to the UV account to use SUSPEND.FILES.
Syntax
SUSPEND.FILES [ ON | OFF ]
Parameters
The following table describes each parameter of the syntax.
Description
SUSPEND.FILES with no options displays the current state of database suspension.
When you specify SUSPEND.FILES ON, all file modifications made in the UniVerse 
environment are suspended. These modifications include:
tCreating, deleting, resizing, and clearing files
tReconfiguring files (splits, merges, extensions, renaming, etc.)
tAdding and deleting part files to a distributed file
tCreating, building, and deleting secondary indexes
tCreating, modifying, and deleting schemas
tAny changes that affect file headers
tCommitting, writing, and deleting data in files
tCataloging and decataloging programs
Parameter
Description
ON
Database suspension is required.
OFF
Database suspension is not required.
SUSPEND.FILES ParametersB 
1-551
C:\Program
Files\Adobe\FrameMaker7.0\UniVerse
tCompiling I-descriptors and BASIC programs
tUpdating sequential files and select lists
Note: External processes in progress will complete, but no new processes will 
be allowed to start. This means that database modifications such as 
transactions will finish before their processes are suspended.
