RE: [U2] UV - Files Stats Question
Charles, Cyber-spanking accepted! I offer my apologies if I seemed to be making a sales pitch (which I hadn't intended). However, since the original poster asked specific questions about a product it didn't seem particularly out of line to answer them. Your judgment of my post is touting -- my intent was to offer a helpful answer to a question. Perhaps I should have answered by private email, but I didn't since the poster chose to raise the issue in the list. Just as you could have delivered your admonishment by private email you chose not to; presumably because others might benefit from exposure to the list guidelines. I hoped my answering Jim's question on the list might be helpful to other list members, many of whom are FAST users. And I did suggest to him that a continuation of the discussion be done via private email. My company is not particularly marketing oriented. I think if you examine my postings to the list and its predecessors you will find the signal to noise ratio to be pretty high. But, all that said, I will try very hard to follow the list guidelines. Would you like the [AD] - [AD\] brackets in the subject line so that offended list members can filter or hit the delete key or would you like them bracketing the sections of the message body that could be judged as touting a product?

RE: [U2] UV - Files Stats Question
can you tell me where FAST keeps the list of files under its control ? There should be a universe account called fastcs. FAST.STATS is its main interesting file you should become familiar with. Where the fastcs directory resides is up to you. For me, it is a sister of the universe home dir. In other words, when I do LIST UV.ACCOUNT I see: LIST UV.ACCOUNT 05:44:11pm 26 Aug 2007 PAGE1 Account... UNIX pathname. uv /dbms/uv fastcs /dbms/fastcs List the FAST.STATS dictionary and then write your own queries. The key to FAST.STATS is the pathname. There are ancillary control files like FAST.LISTS, FAST.SESSIONS, etc.. You'll figure it out once you start looking. One complaint I have with FAST is that it doesn't keep history. I want to see where a file has been and where it is going, so after I run my weekly Gather Stats, I copy each newly updated FAST.STATS record to my own FAST.STATS.HIST where the key is [idate]*[fast.statsID(i.e.,path)]. Indexed on date, path, filename. Then I can look at how a file is changing over time (number of data bytes, items, etc.). I and my comrades have found that useful not just in sizing but in application analysis research. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] UV - Files Stats Question
Jeff, I wouldn't worry about the cyberspanking. We pay Charles those big bucks to monitor this list, and he's earning his keep. (He insisted on 75% the u2 users list subscription fees goes to him, but the U2UG former president, Charles Barouch, chiselled him down to 50%.) I always appreciate vendor response to questions. You've always been very helpful. The fact is, FAST probably does what the original poster wants, if he can figure out how to do it technically. The rules on [AD] are are a bit loose. I don't think we make IBM people add [AD] when then giving technical info or mentioning something about a new release or routine admonitions to take the Internals class. I suppose you maybe strayed when announcing rev 6. Hey, I think that's the first I heard of 6. You know, you could stand to be a little more marketing oriented.

RE: [U2] [ud] Question on Alpha Sorting...
I think I would want to encapsulate that logic in one place. Probably write a function or subr to be called from any pgm or referenced by a dictionary V-item. Store the names as typed in the data record, and NOT repeated as all-caps. Then maybe index the V-item upcased subroutine result. That would give the function something to check to prevent duplicates when inserting new names, assuming that is an issue. At any rate, the function would be a self-contained blackbox, consistent for all present future use. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

I think that had Jeff initiated the discussion of FAST as a solution to the original problem, the need to delineate the discussion as an advertisement would, indeed, be obvious. However, as the original poster mentioned having FAST, I took Jeff's comments as helping the originator make use of tools they already had, rather than encouraging the purchase of a commercial product. Having said that, the nature of this list will often include such grey areas, and I think it advisable for posters to consider the various ways their comments can be interpreted, and act accordingly.

RE: [U2][UV] Up casing Login IDs {unclassified}
Thanks Dave,
I tried it out but, unfortunately, the problem is occurring before the
UV LOGIN voc is invoked. And, to add insult to injury, it is only
happening to my login ID, not to the login ID of anyone else who has
access to the server.
If their UV.LOGINS record is AUSER10, they can enter any case
combination they like (AuSEr10) and UV passes AUSER10 to the UV.LOGINS
file. I use any case combination of my user ID and UV passes asuer14 to
the UV.LOGINS file. Somehow UV knows to upcase all telnet login IDs
except mine.
I suspect it may be because I installed something whilst logged onto the
server as myself, rather than as administrator. However, I did install
UV itself as administrator so it's not that. Possibly UVDK? However, I
have installed UV UVDK on dozens of servers (Unix and Windows) and
have never had this occur before.
Also, I would rather not maintain separately formatted records for
myself throughout the DB. It would have further consequences in the
management of my records on what is the main payroll database.
Has anyone else encountered this problem before?
Cheers,
Andy

Hi all
I am setting up a new UV production server. UV 10.1.18 on Windows
Server
2003, INFORMATION flavour. Access is via QVTTerm. On the existing prod
server, when you enter your enterprise login ID at the server login,
UV
up cases the login ID and presents it to the UV.LOGINS file. However,
on
the new server it is changing the login ID to lower case. Since all
our
apps expect upper case, this is very frustrating.
For example, on the existing server I login as auser14 and a Who at
TCL
shows KIWI\AUSER14. UV.LOGINS is:
Record Key:AUSER14
001 DOMAIN:KIWI
002 LOCAL :
003 DOMAIN.ACCOUNT :D:\DATA\USERS
004 LOCAL.ACCOUNT :
005 DESC :Andrew Mack
End of record
On the new server. I login as auser14 and a Who at TCL shows
KIWI\auser14. If I login as AUSER14, a Who at TCL shows KIWI\auser14.
I
have to have UV.LOGINS records in both AUSER14 and auser14 otherwise
it
falls over with the error Unable to find user account information in
the UV.LOGINS file.
Could someone please advise what setting determines the case that UV
works with?
Thank you
