RE: [U2] [UV] Editing Paired Value Marks - Victory
BTW, if you're using AE, you could also invoke the Editing Values capability by typing EV on the line with the multivalues you wish to edit. 1: Sales.Order.ID_1^253^253Sales.Order.ID_2^253Sales.Order.ID_3 EV return - This turns on the editing of values P return- displays multivalues as if they were attributes 1: Sales.Order.ID_1 2: - extra value 3: Sales.Order.ID_2 4: Sales.Order.ID_3 2 return- Select the second value to edit / delete 2: D return- Delete the extra multivalue, 3rd moves up to 2nd 2: Sales.Order.ID_2 FI return - File the changes to the multivalues Result - 1: Sales.Order.ID_1^253Sales.Order.ID_2^253Sales.Order.ID_3 This is something the UniData people have been able to do for a while.

RE: [U2] uniobjects
What version of UniObjects are you using for .NET versus the VB6 client? There is should only be one version and one instance of UniRPCD on the server. IN theory you could have multiple versions - but that would be a really *bad* idea. You also have to be using the correct client for that version. Otherwise, you may not connect or not reliably at least. You manually start UniRPCD from UNIX: (amend for your path to your UV home directory): nohup /usr/ibm/unishared/unirpc/unirpcd Best not to run it on the commnad line and redirect standard input/output/error to a file. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of doug chanco Sent: Thursday, 14 August 2008 3:08 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] uniobjects does anyone know if its possible to run the uvrpc deamon (uniobjects) from the command line?

Also is anyone aware of any ways to see what a deamon (in particular uvrpc) is doing? We have talked to IBM and apparently the best suggestion we got from them was that the issue was being caused by the network card in the systems (which have been the same for years) so I am not even sure where that idea came from. is anyone aware of any differences that would cause code written in .net to work versus code written in vb6 (I assume they are using different dll's anything on the server side)?

RE: [U2] can anyone shed any light on parts of this core file?
Sorry Doug no light to shed on the core, the problem with a core is that it also dumps the constant lists of the code which is why you seem to get every error under the sun in there. However just to say I have had experience of strange errors in uniobjects in the past on heavily used systems, this was because the network card was set to 100/full duplex, and the switch port to auto negotiate, so they negotiated to half duplex, we set the switch to full duplex and of course it was faster, but we also lost the errors - may be something to investigate.

RE: [U2] TCL literal select
Or simply use a lower case LIST (i.e. list) to force it to ECLTYPE U for that one statement. This works for list ..., select ..., etc. This is a VERY useful way to use U flavored syntax in a P environment. There is a similar command for compiling basic programs. Make the first line of your code (even a subroutine): $BASICTYPE P or $BASICTYPE U to force it to compile in the desired mode.

RE: [U2] U2.NET v IBM.NET v UNIOBJECTS.NET
Hi Susan UniObjects.net is the .Net version of UniObjects (sic) - that exposes a the native MultiValue features all nicely wrapped into classes. For details, take a look at my primer 'Writing your First UniVerse Application' on the U2UG site. That walks you through UniObjects.Net and VB.Net Express. The other main option is the IBM ADO.NET provider, which exposes a mainstream relational view of UniVerse, but with better handling for stored procedures (AKA Basic subroutines) than some previous APIs. For details, take a look at my article in a recent Spectrum (can't remember which one). If I'm right in my nomenclature, U2.NET is a version of Blufinity's mv.Net provider that has been bought by IBM, and that's a totally different kettle of fish..

RE: [U2] tape backups
There's a dbpause / dbresume command on unidata that looks like it would make backups safer: dbpause is a UniData system-level command that blocks most updates to the database made in a UniData session. Any updates made from the operating system level are not blocked. You can use this feature to perform some tasks that normally require UniData to be stopped, such as backing up your data. When the dbpause command is issued, all current writes and transactions complete before UniData pauses. Updates are blocked until the system administrator executes the dbresume command.

RE: [U2] tape backups
We used these for years. No problems - except the tape loader itself... They work well especially if you have a fast disk sub-system. It's more the software that you are using and how it handles open files and locking them. It's been too long since I've set one of these up on Aix but in Windows some software won't backup open files (which the database may hold open even if no one is actively using them). The other problem is the backup software locks the file at the OS level so the database can't read the file and the program aborts. Hth Colin Alfke Calgary Canada -Original Message- From: Roger Our new machine has a DLT tape carousel system. Since it should just be backing up aix data files, so long as we don't access the files during the backup, there shouldn't be any issues with that type of tape, right? thanks Roger --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] Universe conversion migration
Roger, It is very suspicious that the file size 1,073,741,312 is 512 bytes less than 1 GB (1,073,741,824). I would look at ulimit on the new machine - perhaps ulimit is set to 1 GB or some other size limiting factor caused the file to be truncated during the move. Hope this helps!

Re: [U2] tape backups
quote who='Edward Brown' date='Thursday 14 August 2008' There's a dbpause / dbresume command on unidata that looks like it would make backups safer. If your system supports filesystem snapshots, a really effective means is to: 1) dbpause the database 2) take file system snapshot of database 3) dsresume the database 4) perform tape backup from snapshot 5) release the snapshot once backup completes This typically results in very little downtime (as long as it takes to pefrom a snapshot of the filesystem) often 5-10 seconds or less. Yes, you should wait a few seconds after dbpause to allow any pending writes to complete. dbpause is a UniData system-level command that blocks most updates to the database made in a UniData session. Any updates made from the operating system level are not blocked. You can use this feature to perform some tasks that normally require UniData to be stopped, such as backing up your data. When the dbpause command is issued, all current writes and transactions complete before UniData pauses. Updates are blocked until the system administrator executes the dbresume command.

Re: [U2] Universe conversion migration
Roger, First of all, that doesn't look like a type 30 file to me. 1,048,576 -rw-rw-rw- root sys 1,073,741,312 (same as the fsize). That's a file - at version 10 a type 30 file is a directory at the OS level, so I would expect to see something like drwxrwxrwx for the permissions, and inside the directory there should be a DATA.30 and an OVER.30 file. Next, if uvfixfile won't touch it, what is the output from fixtool? HTH.

Not on the network as I did not monitor that (boxes are colo in a hosting centre and we use their switches etc), but on the linux box a 'netstat -an' showed lots of sockets with about 250 bytes in the queue. I asked the hosting centre network staff to check the switch ports for our machine and they reported they were in half duplex. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of doug chanco Sent: 14 August 2008 18:34 To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: [U2] can anyone shed any light on parts of this core file?

[U2] Unidata to Universe port
Hello: Does any one have any experiences they would be willing to share regarding the effort required to port applications from UniData to Universe? We're currently on Unidata 7.1 We developed our application in an early version of SB+ and UniBasic and have kept current on SB+, so we're now at version 5.4. We've also made use of various connectivity technolgies over time, such as ODBC, OLEDB, and UniObjects. We haven't used the web services or ADO provider yet, but probably will eventually. We are currently running on Windows but a Unix flavor is not out of the question if there is a compelling reason. At this point, I'm just trying to figure out a way to gauge the relative effort, and if there were any surprises, such as better/worse performance, costs, development effort, etc and of course, any gotchas. Also, is it feasible to to code the application in a way that it would work on either platform from the same code base? The reason we're even considering this is because of IBM's decision not to implement NLS in UniData, at least not right away. Of course, we've had conversations with IBM about converting, but would appreciate hearing from any one who has actually done this. thanks in advance.
