Re: [U2] UV 10 para Suse 9.2
I've used a 2 user licensed (NOT pe) UniVerse 10.1 on Gentoo, Redhat and SuSE 8.2 during my testing. As others have said, I've found it works just fine with just about any linux distro out there. I'm also betting that IBM would support it on most any of the mainstream distros as most of them are the same under the hood. You may have to tweak a couple of the startup scripts and make an adjustment or two to the install procedures, but after that it's all good. Currently, I'm running that very same 2 users license on a SuSE 8.2 system as a development tool. Granted, it's not servicing many users, but it has worked without incident for the past year. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Re: [U2] RE:
Installing a current version of UniVerse onto a Solaris box would be the quickest way to move the application. If your not familiar with UniVerse, you would be wise to invest in a few hours of consultant time for someone else to perform the upgrade for you. To move the data out of UniVerse to another platform you really need to know what's in the database and how it's structured. A few hours with a consultant might get you headed in the right direction. You may find that extracting only the subset of stuff your users are really interested in will be more cost effective than upgrading or converting the entire application.

Re: [U2] UV migration
Getting the data from unix to a pc running windows or linux can be done any number of ways. The basic receipe is copy, fnuxi, resize, recompile, run. You can use nfs, ftp, tape, rsync, samba shares, etc to get the data from one machine to another. The fnuxi part is a UniVerse command to convert the data format from one machine type and version to another. Using a 1-2 user developers license for UniVerse 10 and a pc running windows or linux would probably be the most cost effective solution if general lookup is all you want to do. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
Re: [U2] UV migration
Sorry, I work for lawyers were throw money at it is S.O.P. Getting the data out of the old system and onto brand X database system does not require either a new UniVerse license or an install of PE. It would however go much easier with an install of a consultant type who could quickly show the folks what is in the system, where it's stored and the quickest and cheapest way to get it out of there.

Re: [U2] Is replication across versions a possibility?
Upgrade via replication sounds like a receipe for lots of wailing and knashing of teeth. Have a look at uvbackup and uvrestore. Or read up on rsync as a means to get the data from one machine to another. If it were me, I think I'd do a uvbackup to a network mounted filesystem (samba or nfs) and then do a uvrestore from that disk to the final location. Doing a test conversion would allow you to get an idea of how long it will take and should uncover any hidden gotchas in moving from Irix to Linux. --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
Re: [U2] Is replication across versions a possibility?
Yes, going from Irix (MIPS?) to Linux on X86 will most likely require fnuxi to be run on everything after the transfer. Since the fnuxi process would run on the newer machine, it would probably still be much faster to run an rsync, then find - fnuxi script. Just be very carefull with rsync! It's a sharp knife.

[U2] Uniobjects.NET writefield
Does the unifile method writefield actually work with uniobjects.net? I'm having a difficult time getting it to do anything other than cause my program to fault.

RE: [U2] Uniobjects.NET speed/performance
Suppose I should have mentioned that my example was in c# using UniObjects .Net. I have been able to see that using the readlist method allows the program to run much faster, simply putting the select list into a loop and reading one record at a time runs noticeably slower. I didn't have this problem with the com based uniobjects or with the uniobjects for java library (even when I ran that under c# and .net). I've seen another post that referred to an updated dll, but when I tried to obtain it I was told by my var that it's not available. Now, I've also run up on a problem with writefield as it performs a consistent seg fault when used. I'm a bit perplexed by how UniObjects for .net was written. An example is with the writefield method itself. Instead of following the pattern laid out by UniObjects for Java, the programmer(s) chose to shuffle the order of the arguments to this method making it a nuisance to switch back and forth from one library to another. Not a big deal when your going to use only one environment, but still an oversight that could have easily been taken care of with a bit of attention to detail. --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

RE: [U2] Suspend.files
We have been using the suspend option as part of our back up plan, since we moved to UV 10.0.19 earlier this year, we are on AIX 5.2 ML3 at this time. Our back up process is scripted at the AIX level. We suspend UniVerse, then run sync several times, then break a 3rd set of mirrors, and unsuspend UniVerse. This process takes about 10 minutes to complete. We were using the AIX snap on and snap off commands, to take a snap shot of our system. However, IBM AIX has an issue with the snap logic, which can cause the system to hang - and the only way to get it back, is a hard reboot - which is not pretty. IBM AIX is working on this problem and with luck will have a fix in the next few weeks. Once they do, using the snap at AIX, only takes a minute or two and then UnVerse can be unsuspended. The back up then takes place on the snap area, once the back up is completed, you snap off and the snap area is removed. Once IBM has the snap correction in place, we will be moving to AIX 5.2 ML4, which is the version IBM is working on for the snap correction. It is my understanding that ML4 has other changes for UniVerse and for JFS2 file systems, which we are using. We are 24X7 and this has worked great for us (other than the snap issue). The users are able to continue to access the database for inquiry during the suspend, if they try to write, they will hang until the database is unsuspended. Our users know what time each night this will take place and know to not break out or reboot etc during this time. Hope this helps, feel free to drop me a note if you would like more information.

RE: [U2] Universe Database Hang
We had this problem but it was related to Vertias Replication software. Are you by chance running Vertias on HPUX? Sorry deleted the original post if that had the OS info in it.

Not UniVerse, but UniData was doing that to us intermittently. Nobody new could log in, but users who were already in didn't experience any problems. I don't think we ever figured out what the issue was, but we moved up to UD6 and it hasn't happened again. -- Wendy Smoak Application Systems Analyst, Sr. ASU IA Information Resources Management --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] [OT]Postscript to a Laser on Dumb Term Aux Port
I would go with the HP printers. The $99 dollar printer may be a windows only device that relies on the host cpu to do most of the processing. This could be more problematic than the spooler. We switched from pcl only printers to combos that are capable of both pcl and postscript a couple of years ago. We found that printing large volumes of pdf files to a pcl only printer was slower than if the same model printer had a postscript driver. We did not take the time to figure out exactly why, we just switched.

These are retail cashiering station that we are talking about. One central printer would be my next choice. The only thing that can go wrong is that the printer hangs and the whole front counter is dead. When the printer runs out of paper, or toner or the drum, or what have you, they would panic, because the light would be blinking and they wouldnt know what to do (these guys really arent too bright and would always rather have the other guy fix the problem). It will lead to a situation where the printer gets disabled at the unix level and has to be enabled (easy for you and me, but a mountain for these guys). Mind you all this is happening in a retail environment with customers waiting for receipts (ever been in a supermarket when the receipt printer jams - what if that was one printer for the whole market). This isnt good. The spooler is the obstacle that Im trying to avoid. I started to think of the cheapest, easiest, uncomplicated way to go about doing this. This is to continue doing the same thing that has worked flawlessly for about 15 years. The reason for going to laser is to eliminate preprinted forms, which saves substantial cash. I originally believed that the $99 laser I had did postscript. If it did, I would be golden. It doesnt. It does do PCL4. So, my next avenue to explore is to convert the postscript to PLC4 or convert the PDF being created directly to PCL4. Currently, the preprinted forms/Epson arrangement is doing straight ascii printing. We have started using the Cross PDF package and we are converting everything to PDF. We are eliminating pre printed forms wherever they exist. If all of this ends up not working, then I will go with the spooled printer solution. Then I have to create a bunch of menu options to allow users to view the status of the spooler and printer - is lpd running, is the printer disabled, is there a lock file that needs to be cleaned up. I dont look forward to this. The dumb terminal cost about $350 w/kybd new. The laser Im considering is $99. The cheapest laser that does postscript (that I know of yet) is the hp 2100 about $400. Im open to anything that is completely simple and cheap. I have brought up the idea of thermal printers like they use in Best Buy, etc... nobody likes em. We are a furniture store and the appearance of this just doesnt fit considering the average ticket is about $1500 and some substantially more. The owner likes something a little more elegant. So, now you know a little more about the environment what do you think ? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tony Gravagno Sent: Saturday, June 05, 2004 5:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2] [OT]Postscript to a Laser on Dumb Term Aux Port Personally I'd recommend that you reconsider the architecture that you're trying to build, rather than reconsidering the specific devices that you're trying to fit into that architecture. I'm reading square pegs and round holes here. Dumb terminals were designed when we didn't have anything better. Do you really want to hang many laserjets around on dumb terminals that cost less than the printers themselves? Do each of your end-users really require exclusive access to a laserjet? And do you really need to manually generate a lot of PCL? I understand the needs of smaller sites and that it's not easy to drag new cables around for a new printer, etc. These days a wireless setup will cost as much as the $100 manual that someone proposed. And it's much easier to generate XML or HTML and export it as PDF, or use some other more text-based methods that result in high quality printed output. I'm just suggesting that you think outside of the box for a moment and consider something different than what the site already has, rather than just replacing old methods with new hardware. Good luck, Tony From Anthony Dzikiewicz I think you're right. I assumed that this is postscript printer. We have always used this with windows and could print postscript, but it is being converted. I guess I should start over with a real postscript

In this case it looks as if they are being used to reduce the number of keystrokes the programmer will have to make. HTH, Gordon J. Glorfield Sr. Applications Developer MAMSI (A UnitedHealth Company) 301-360-8839 [snip] I have a UniBasic program with hundreds of equate statements like EQU V.SEC.SYNONYM TO COURSE.SECTIONS.REC.TABLEI.COURSE.SECTIONS,15 and only thing they do is assign it to a PRINT.VAR PRINT.VAR = V.SEC.SYNONYM: :.. I am planning to take off the equate and assign the variable directly to the PRINT.VAR PRINT.VAR = COURSE.SECTIONS.REC.TABLEI.COURSE.SECTIONS,15: :.. Will this speed up the process?

RE: UNCLASSIFIED RE: [U2] UniVerse telnet session terminating...
Mike, Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, this installation is still running Win2K and our problems continue. Weve reinstalled UniVerse, rebuilt the UV.LOGINS file via UVAdmin, created a brand new user and user group with the proper Log on Locally and Access this Computer from the Network policies set to no avail. The odd thing is that this problem appeared suddenly. Through 5:00pm on 4/30 all was fine and then the difficulties started. There were no system updates (at least no deliberate ones) and nothing recorded in the event logs coinciding with the problems onset.
