Re: [U2] fixtool
Hi Doug, is fixtool the best way to repair a universe file? In my experience with the various repair tools over many years of working with UniVerse, fixtool does seem to be able to repair more corruptions than the previous tools. I read somewhere that all it does is fix the broken link (fixing the file but losing the data that the broken link pointed to). This may be all that can be done. A backward link error often means that two groups apparently own the same overflow block. The data of one will have overwritten the other. There is no way that any recovery tool could ever get back the lost data.

RE: [U2] [UV] Basic Match...
The help file specifies: A tilde (~) placed immediately before pattern specifies a negative match. That is, it specifies a pattern or a part of a pattern that does not match the expression or a part of the expression. The match is true only if string and pattern are of equal length and differ in at least one character. Since you are testing for length and the lengths are the same the tilde doesn't come into play.

[UV] printer memory segment. was: [U2] Available printer memory exceeded
Does anyone know the history of that printer memory segment nomenclature? It seems that all memory errors are printer memory errors on Universe. Jerry That's true. Generally doesn't have much to do with printers, but a UV process's private memory. Examples: See POST.STATUS's 3rd column for phantoms. unix icps -map | grep 0xaceb. See smat -p (aka ANALYZE.SHM -p) Look up printer memory segment in UV docs. Undoubtedly, there was a reason for calling it that way back when. Was it originally only a spot where printer output was buffered? Sounds like a question for David Meeks or Glen Herbert, answer to be archived by historian Dawn Wolthuis. cds --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] Available printer memory exceeded
Jerry, 1. 1st thing I'd do is look in the recent changes for a construct functionally something like this: X cleared (wrong place for X to be initialized.) Start-outer-loop * X should be cleared here, but isn't. Start-inner-loop X:= [stuff](X grows) end-inner-loop End-inner-loop You say it runs fine by itself, but not in it's rightful setting, so maybe the var is in common and persists through multiple executions w/o proper reinitialization. 2. I recently had a memory leak where executions got slower slower, until the uv process aborted. Different error message from yours. Unix's ps -l was interesting. Size column showed it growing. It turned out ULIMIT config param was set too high. Joel Yates @ IBM had me reset it to the default. Hadn't been an issue until we changed from HP-Risc/HPUX11.11/UV10.1.16 to HP-itanium/HPUX11.23/UV10.2.6. Thank-you, Joel. cds -Original Message- Last night during our month end batch process it aborted the proc when we got Available printer memory exceeded during one of the programs. I ran the program this morning and it ran without getting the error, same program, same data files. Can anyone tell me where I could look to keep it from doing this? It has always run without problems in the past, it only runs at month end, but there were some minor changes made to the program that shouldn't have caused any problems and don't when run by itself.

RE: [U2] fixtool
Heehee, Chuck! I once heard a 3rd party presidential candidate refer to the major parties' fixing Social Security that way. You can use fixtool in the interactive mode, if you really feel bold, adventurous, know what you're doing and it helps if your family owns the company. If it's a broken flink, you're pretty much hosed (ok, you _could_ restore the file somewhere else from tape find the proper flink for that frame by looking at the restored file). But if it's a blink, you can trace to the break, and key in the proper backward link, fixing - er, correcting - the chain. May I interject here that this is (to me) a major reason why you want to avoid overflow. Wide and shallow shall be your files. If you have no overflow (an impossible ideal, but strive in that direction), you cannot have broken links to overflow.

RE: [U2] Linux Pseudo Directory
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search A chroot on Unix operating systems is an operation that changes the apparent disk root directory for the current running process and its children. A program that is re-rooted to another directory cannot access or name files outside that directory, called a chroot jail or (less commonly) a chroot prison. The term chroot may refer to the chroot(2) system call or the chroot(8) wrapper program. The chroot system call was introduced by Bill Joy on 18 March 1982 - 17 months before 4.2BSD was released - in order to test its installation and build system.

Re: [UV] printer memory segment. was: [U2] Available printer memory exceeded
The answer is very simple. When they were looking for a name, they chose the name of the largest structure in this particular shared memory segment (apparently user shared memory segment would have been confused with private memory segments). The largest structure in the printer shared memory segment is the sixteen printer channel definitions that you set with SETPTR commands (eighteen, actually, when the two internal channel structures are considered). - Original Message - From: Stevenson, Charles [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [UV] printer memory segment. was: [U2] Available printer memory exceeded Date: Mon, 4 Aug 2008 12:42:56 -0400 Does anyone know the history of that printer memory segment nomenclature? --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] UniData PROC tip: DB command
Baker Hughes wrote The man (person) who writes a PROC interpreter/conversion utility that can take a PROC and turn it into either Basic, or a PAragraph, will have a product to sell... I tried really really really hard to do this a few years ago. The code got more and more complicated until I threw in the towel. Then I realised that it was easier to write a PROC interpreter in BASIC, and that I could re-use the code I had, but that it would be much, much simpler and clearer. Although I never finished it, Martin Phillips took it on from there and did the hard work so that QM had a PROC interpreter. We all know what grinding out that last 20% is like! I was as pleased as punch that I could contribute something to QM because it's such a good product, and the support has always been exceptional. The code (at the stage I got it to) is the programs RUNPROC and CALLPROC in http://www.geocities.com/pickfalla/programs.html.

FW: [U2] fixtool
Hello Doug, If you run the tool once, it may orphan one or more overflow buffers. Running it until it has no errors should reclaim the unlinked buffers, thus recovering the records from orphaned buffer(s). The number of times you run fixtool depends on how many errors it finds as it traverses the file. Typically, it can only fix one blink [LeRoy Dreyfuss] (or other type of error, outside of some header errors) at a time as the file should be rescanned for additional errors once a fix is applied.
