[ADMIN] The lists now have their new home
Dear Friends, The lists now are up and running at their new home under the auspices of the new U2 Users Group. Since all addresses were passed along to Larry, all of you should have already received the welcome message and new list server instructions, so I will not repeat them here. I am setting the full moderation bit on for the old lists so that if you post to the old addresses, you will get an auto response reminding you of the new list addresses. I want to thank everyone for making my time as the host of the lists so enjoyable and educational. As mentioned in my reminder postings, I intend to continue participating in the lists with something other than CyberSpankings grin. And I will be using the rest of the new-found time working on the new newsletter ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and book. I will see you all over at the new home. -- Regards, Clif ~~~ W.

RE: [UD] Union Query
Indeed. One of the great things about UniVerse and UniData is that you can use SQL against your files. SQL is a great way to do quick updates too (carefull, it is a very sharp knife). If you don't have a good SQL book, get one. I have the advantage of being required to support a couple of Micro$oft SQL servers along with the UniVerse machines. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ken Wallis Sent: Saturday, May 01, 2004 3:15 AM To: 'U2 Users Discussion List' Subject: RE: [UD] Union Query Gordon J.

No, and Yes. Just doing a SELECT in SQL style on UV gives you a crt display of the result set.

Re: Differences
DB2 is the original, proprietary IBM first normal form database product. IBM now prefers to call it DB2 UDB, where the UDB stands for universal database. Since acquiring all of the databases, including UniVerse and UniData, from Informix in 2001, IBM have also used the term DB2 to refer generically to all its database products, no doubt to confuse the world into believing that DB2 is the only database (personal opinion). UniVerse and UniData are very similar (to end users), non first normal form database products, based on a model that pre-dates SQL. While each supports SQL, it is not currently the principal query language used. The data model, while relational, incorporates nesting, which DB2 UDB does not. That is, conceptually, a cell (row/column intersection) can have a data type of table. IBM acquired these, along with six other database products, from Informix. Administration of UniVerse is radically different from UniData, and both even more radically different from DB2 UDB. Further, there is no such thing as a course. There's one for the query language, one for the programmer, one (or more) for the administrator in each case. Try linking to IBM's web site, going to www-306.ibm.com/software/data/u2 as your start point. You can get to the library (manuals, tech bulletins, etc.) and training and certification from this page. Sometimes you will end up on a DB2 page while following these links. The U2 (UniVerse/UniData) information is usually in tiny print at the bottom or somewhere else obscure on these pages.

[UV] uvconfig parameters - T30FILE, MFILES, etc.
UV 10.0.17, Windows 2003 The other day I had occasion to increase the value of the T30FILE parameter from the default of 200 (to 300) for the first time in the several years I've been using Universe. Unfortunately, the documentation is not very clear (at least to me) regarding interdependencies between the various parameters in uvconfig. So far, the change I made don't seem to have had any negative effect, but I'm wondering if something is waiting in the weeds getting ready to bite me? Are there any other parameters I need to adjust when I change T30FILE? In particular, do I need to increase MFILES correspondingly? TIA for any advice. Thanks Clif.

Causes of a RD Group Lock - Universe 9.6 and AIX
Hi, I was looking for any information about what may cause an RD Group Lock without a record lock. I am currently experiencing a problem where a basic program is trying to perform a write to a file, but the file has a current RD lock. The user no. with the RD lock is the same as the user who is running the process. There are no READU or WRITEU statements in the process. Since it is a nightly routine that is run, I am phantoming off a small log process to capture ps, list_readu, and port.status. Before the program is run, there is no group lock on the file. Even better, this only occurs a few times a week. The rest of the time, the program runs just fine. Does anyone have any ideas?

EXECUTE COMMAND CAPTURING OUTPUT
Hello. Unidata 6.0.8 AIX 5.1 One of our programmers asked this question: If I have this: COMMAND = 'PROGRAM.A' EXECUTE COMMAND CAPTRURING OUTPUT Is there any way for 'PROGRAM.A' to sense that it is in capturing output and stop the capture? What we have is a case where an open file error may occur and we need to have the user go back into a menu, but we do not want them to see the error. Problem is that the error is waiting for user input to continue and user thinks the session is hung up or locked, or they start hitting returns and log themselves off. If we can tell we are in capturing output, we can force the session to end the capture and return to a menu.

Re: OLEDB problem with UniData
Can you say what's the query like? and if you are using a schema or just a plain file, and the dicts? Sometimes it has to do with the imposibility to convert data using the conversion codes. HP --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió: We're looking for some help with a UniOLEDB problem. I'm hoping someone can provide some input on the error. We are currently developing a web application that uses UniOLEDB to execute SQL statements in UniData. Our code is in C# and is running as a service (single threaded). We have test case of 12 or so SQL statements that execute one after the other for a defined number of times. In otherwords the 12 statements are execute over and over for 20 times. Note the 12 statements are not dynamic so they are the same exact query each time, with no variations in data possible. What we are experiencing is a random points in the test we receive an E_FAIL condition. Sometimes it is on iteration 3 and sometimes it is on iteration 19 and sometimes somewhere else. As seen in the DRITrace log segements below there seems to be a pattern in the log of a thread change. When the problem occurs it is preceded by a change in the pattern. Also it looks as if UniData executes the query fine the error is when the data is coming back up the pipe. Check the log segments below. Finally we are using a UniOLEDB version just delivered by IBM, but prior versions also had the problem. The current version we are using is 1.4.5. The UniData version is 6.0.12. Normal set of thread changes occur and there is no error condition around this change. Note there is a change after uci::SQLFreeStmt entries.

RE: UVODBC/OleDB job Randomly hang
You have a semaphore lock that is not being released. You do not have to reboot the system to correct this problem. Simply run UNLOCK GROUPLOCK. This will release all of the grouplocks and complain about the semaphores that cannot be released. Then issue UNLOCK GROUPLOCK SEMAPHORE ##. You will need to do this for each semaphore that won't release, usually there is only one.

RE: Memo: RE: [UD] Union Query
In the dict of FILE.A create a dict called: NAME.LO that has: TRANS(LOCAL,ID,1,X):TRANS(OTHER,ID,1,X) What you get is a boolean result by sticking the two TRANS against each other. Let's look an example. Assume that the 6 records have the following names: LOCAL.1 = Smith LOCAL.2 = Jones LOCAL.3 = Barney OTHER.1= Green OTHER.2= Brown OTHER.3= Jones If you LIST LOCAL NAME NAME.LO you should see the following: FILE.A... NAME... NAME.LO. LOCAL.1 Smith Smith LOCAL.2 Jones Jones LOCAL.3 BarneyBarney OTHER.1 Green OTHER.2 Brown OTHER.3 Jones This is because the NAME.LO dict doesn't care where it is residing. It just gets the direction to retrieve the contents of attribute 1 from the LOCAL and OTHER files. In fact, to keep the confusion (and clutter) to a minimum you could put the dict into a work file dictionary and do: LIST FILE.A USING DICT WORK NAME.LO When I mentioned the data being in both files I meant having the same key. e.g. LOCAL.3 existing in both LOCAL and OTHER files.

RE: Memo: RE: [UD] Union Query
Are you on Universe or Unidata? I'm on Unidata 5.2 - BASICTYPE 'p', ECLTYPE 'p'. This is not working for me. When I get a list (6 items let's say) and type LIST SOME.FILE NAME.LO It seems that Unidata is taking the 6 items in the list and trying to find them in SOME.FILE first - *THEN* runs the NAME.LO dictionary. It looks to me that your example works because your system is running the NAME.LO dictionary *BEFORE* it tries to resolve the key in the list to a record in SOME.FILE. Therefore, you should be able to to something like this: SELECT SOME.FILE SAMPLE 6 SAVE-LIST SOME.LIST GET-LIST SOME.LIST LIST TOTALLY.DIFFERENT.FILE NAME.LO if the NAME.LO dict did a TRANS to SOME.FILE, then the above would work just fine - even though every key in the SOME.LIST did NOT EXIST in TOTALLY.DIFFERENT.FILE.

I have done a frontend to a SQL Database using VS .NET before but nothing from a UNIX database? The frontend end would run on WinXP Machines and need to run commands on the AIX machines to run daily processes and also reporting as well as you are currently manually putting in the UniQuery and then importing it into excel would be great if we could use Crystal Reports like i used on my SQL frontend.

RE: Frontend to UniVerse?
Trevor You have access to a variety of clients including java, .Net, VB, etc. Access can be through ODBC OLE DB, but also through a UniObjects which is a class that drops into java or a com object that drops into VB .Net. This is more efficient than the ODBC environment. (a .Net interface is on its way, but this is not necessary for .Net development just an upgrade of the COM object) If you require more of the Internet style application, then you should also look at the Redback product which handles all the Web requirements. You also are able to integrate with Web Services, xml, etc. Additionally there are a host of development tools and reports tools available for the Universe environment that allow rapid development. Universe sites are using Chrystal reports, so that should not be a problem. When developing in Universe, this is an opportunity to think outside the square, for though Universe can handle many of things DB2 does it also does a lot of things that DB2 cannot do. Universe has a very sophisticated Programming Language built into the database that can be used to build complex procedure calls way beyond the tradional SQL Programming Languages. Universe also is capable of handling multidimensional tables which DB2 does not handle. If there is something you are trying to do a certain way, I am sure you will find someone on this list that has tackled this problem. With an open mind, I am sure you will find Universe a very powerful development environment, but don't get caught into the trap that the RDBMS way of doing things is necessarily the best way of doing things as there are sometimes easier and quicker ways of doing things from a different perspective Regards David Jordan Managing Consultant [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dacono Holdings Pty Ltd Business Technology Consulting PO Box 909 Lane Cove NSW 2066 Australia Ph 61 2 9418 8329 Fax 61 2 9427 2371 www.dacono.com.au -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Trevor McNamara Sent: Saturday, 1 May 2004 8:40 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Frontend to UniVerse?

Re: Differences
Trevor, Welcome to the lists! To answer your question, DB2 is a marketing term within IBM which denotes a family of databases (which includes DB2 itself, UniVerse, UniData, and others). Therefore, a course in DB2 (the database) does not qualify you for other databases within DB2 (the *marketing* term). UniVerse and UniData are siblings. As a result, they share a lot of traits but have certain points where they are fiercely different. This list is an excellent source for getting to know these two databases. -- - Charles Barouch [EMAIL PROTECTED] - Zeus Data Integration [EMAIL PROTECTED]- Consulting services (718) 762-3884 x 1 - Key Ally Voice mail Mount Olympus, Home of Zeus Data Integration Trevor McNamara wrote: Hey, Can someone please answer some questions as i am unsure on some database types.

RE: Frontend to UniVerse?
My answer to questions like this is always that you can get into these MV systems in so many different ways that it's now irrelevant which tools or languages you use. Pick one that you're comfortable with and you'll find ways to use your tools to get into the back-end and interface with applications. As examples: Java, VB6, VB.NET, C#, Perl, ASP.NET, ADO.NET, ODBC, HTTP, RPC, sockets, Nucleus, Visage, DesignBAIS, RedBack, WebWizard, UniObjects/UOJ, Intercall, Coyote(?), PDP.NET, mvInternet, AccuTerm, wIntegrate (yes these can be used as pure connectivity components) Excel, Outlook, Project, Word, Crystal Reports, FRx, ... Quick Books, Great Plains, Turbo Tax, ... (omission of a product name is only a sign of failing memory) There is no best language, development tool, or connectivity method - IMHO. It comes down to your comfort zone, your price range, your favorite technologies, your company politics, your confidence in the long-term viability of tools, and other semi-intangibles. If your question is more specific like how do I get into Universe from a .NET middle tier, then people can provide a more specific answer. For ideas about how to use MV apps with Web Services, for example, see my article on Web Services and .NET in the March/April and prior issues of Spectrum Magazine, where I mention a number of these technologies: http://www.intl-spectrum.com/SPECTRUMMAG.HTML (4.5MB PDF) I'll be happy to provide free advice, offical consultation, education, and development services using most of the technologies mentioned here.

I don't like the UD/UV manuals as you need to know which index in which book to look up your topic. If you're looking up U50BB, is it in the ECL book, the UniProc book or the UniBasic book?.

RE: VOC corruption
hmm... another idea just occurred to me. I forget the environment for this problem, but a lot of places have some variant of a script running to query shared memory for nattch=0, then removing those that aren't phantoms. Unfortunately, at AIX 5.2, ipcs reports nattches of 0 for all memory segments. So if you have a script running that you think is removing locks held by defunct process, you may be removing valid, active locks, opening the door to file corruption. Still, probably not the case here, as the VOC shouldn't be seeing much of the I side of I/O. Our greatest duty in this life is to help others.

The first incident was tracked back to the possibility of errors on the SAN. Hardware was replaced and the file has been resized (I assume by this it has also been moved to a different area on the disk or disks) The following incident has no hardware indications in any log thus making it a little hard to trace where the issue occurred. The customer is, understandably, concerned this may happen again as unfortunately both incidents have had a major impact on their business. I am curious to find if any other sites have had a similar issue. Both incidents were backward link errors in the same items. As noted above, the file was resized between incidents and I assume is now in a different area on the SAN. I have found nothing to date in any log on the system. Any suggestions are welcome.

RE: How far can U2 scale?
In reply to what Steve wrote re: app level problems with scability: In a way you're right, in that an app written for small scale systems cannot easily be scaled upward to infinity without having serious bottleneck issues. No matter what tool (read language/RAD/whatever) is used, if the design has built in toe-jammers, it simply aint gonna work. However, if the designers knew upfront what scale to aim at, it's easy. Keys are prefixed with some kind of sub-structure label to break-down the scale to managable levels, eg branch, warehouse, or if requiring specifically numeric, ranges of number are set for each sub-structure, eg 100,000 - 200,000 for New Jersey, with scalability built in with the same number range for each million increase, eg 1,100,000 - 1,200,000, 2,100,000 - 2,200,000, etc (many ways to skin said cat) The thing about bad design is that its faults exponentially increase by number of users.

Computationally that would be the most efficient, but again, it wouldn't be unique system wide.

RE: Timestamp
Bill H. wrote on 04/28/2004 12:27:30 AM: SYSTEM(19) on D3: Returns a unique item-id consisting of the current system date in internal format, followed immediately by the current system time in seconds. If more than one item-id is generated in a second, an alpha character is appended to the item-id. The best way to simulate this - on UniData, UniVerse, or indeed on D3 - is to roll your own solution that doesn't involve contention. When I was working on a Sequoia Pick system we used SYSTEM(19) rather extensively. It was an easy way for multiple processes to generate unique keys to a file. We thought it was a great way to avoid the bottleneck created by a next key record in a control file. We knew that having multiple processes banging against a single locked record was a bottleneck and we pounced upon this wonderful thing called SYSTEM(19). What a wonderful way to avoid bottlenecks. I was young - well younger - then, and didn't understand the way UNIX worked. There was just this magical facility available, so it was used with abandon. It seemed to be the answer to our problems. Then we saw that the system started crawling and, after much work, came to the conclusion that the processes using SYSTEM(19) were the cause. That's when I started learning UNIX terms like semaphore. In other words, when you're guaranteeing uniqueness system-wide, you're going to have to bind on something. That was lesson #1. Lesson 2 reared its ugly head when we were suddenly missing records during a batch update process. After tearing the application apart, and scrutinizing everything including the IDs of the records in a transaction file, we finally discovered that we were over-writing records. As Bill H. mentioned, the date and time was suffixed with a single character. If I recall correctly, they started with the letter A, then incrimented from there. I think when they got to Z they started with numerals. They might have also included some non-alpha-numeric characters. But with 1200 users on a 16-CPU system, there were times when we used all of the available characters in a second, and it started back at the beginning. We were just blindly writing records with SYSTEM(19) as the key, so earlier records within a second were being overwritten by later records within the same second. Clearly, SYSTEM(19) wasn't the best approach. Since we didn't care about the contents of the ID - only system-wide uniqueness - we started using something like this: date*time*port*seqno where date and time represented the beginning of the current process and seqno was a number incremented within the program. This was guaranteed to be unique system-wide. To our great surprise and pleasure, performance also went through the roof, since there was no longer any chance for a bottleneck. So, as a long answer to Eugene's short question - with some old codger reminiscence mixed in - no, SYSTEM(19) isn't available on UniData. Rejoice!

Re: VOC corruption
I can relay one UV customer's experience. After months of sporadic file corruption episodes, they finally had their hardware folks come out and check over the system (one of the first things our support group had suggested, of course). They had memory boards seated in improper slots. Once they correctly re-seated the memory boards - all file corruption issues ceased. Even though the hardware diagnostic programs for this platform reported no errors - it is always prudent to check hardware. Anything that interrupts a clean movement of a block of data from memory to the physical disk platters could result in database file corruption.

The first incident was tracked back to the possibility of errors on the SAN. Hardware was replaced and the file has been resized (I assume by this it has also been moved to a different area on the disk or disks) The following incident has no hardware indications in any log thus making it a little hard to trace where the issue occurred. The customer is, understandably, concerned this may happen again as unfortunately both incidents have had a major impact on their business. I am curious to find if any other sites have had a similar issue. Both incidents were backward link errors in the same items. As noted above, the file was resized between incidents and I assume is now in a different area on the SAN. I have found nothing to date in any log on the system. Any suggestions are welcome.

We have a program looping through all data files searching for something - sometimes it gets to a file containing several million records and we'd like to be able to tell it to skip that file and continue with the next file. We've tried the following approaches with said results: (1) OPT.OUT = KEYIN() ; if OPT.OUT = 1 then EXIT OPT.OUT = 0 the program sits waiting for input in every iteration, ie every record (2) INPUT OPT.OUT,-1 ; if OPT.OUT = 'S' then EXIT OPT.OUT = 0 CLEARDATA CLEARINPUT the program works perfectly until an 'S' is entered then skips every file after that... HOWEVER, if I press Ctrl-Break, enter DEBUG, enter C(ontinue), the program continues as normal until another 'S' is entered..

The problem (or not problem) with RAISE, is that it will also change all other marks at the same time. If you have a|b|c}d|e|f, and want a}b}c}d}e}f, you have to use CONVERT. RAISE will give you a}b}c^d}e}f *note ^ = fm, } = vm, | = svm -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Gordon Glorfield Sent: Tuesday, April 27, 2004 12:18 PM To: 'U2 Users Discussion List' Subject: RE: Help on uv syntax, please To do what you are saying I would use the RAISE function.

Re: UniVerse Personal Edition Telnet Service
Check to see if the Microsoft Telnet service is running. If so, stop the service and set its start property to disable or manual. Then stop the UniVerse services and restart them and you should have telnet. An alternative is to use UniAdmin to change the port UniVerse uses for telnet so the two do not conflict. That is what I have done and it works well. If this is not a MS installnever mind! :-) Ron White - Original Message - From: Glenn W.

RE: VOC corruption
David I've seen this where a GCI/CALLC routine was linked into a UniData kernel and it reused the stderr file handle. The result was the stderr data stream overwrote the file which currently was allocated to that handle (whoch UniData was using for the VOC). The giveaway was to perform an od -c of the VOC - many application error messages overwrote the file header. Hope this helps...not sure off the top of my head whether UniVerse usage of handles is similar - but worth a check.

After months of sporadic file corruption episodes, they finally had their hardware folks come out and check over the system (one of the first things our support group had suggested, of course). They had memory boards seated in improper slots. Once they correctly re-seated the memory boards - all file corruption issues ceased. Even though the hardware diagnostic programs for this platform reported no errors - it is always prudent to check hardware. Anything that interrupts a clean movement of a block of data from memory to the physical disk platters could result in database file corruption.

We have a program looping through all data files searching for something - sometimes it gets to a file containing several million records and we'd like to be able to tell it to skip that file and continue with the next file. We've tried the following approaches with said results: (1) OPT.OUT = KEYIN() ; if OPT.OUT = 1 then EXIT OPT.OUT = 0 the program sits waiting for input in every iteration, ie every record (2) INPUT OPT.OUT,-1 ; if OPT.OUT = 'S' then EXIT OPT.OUT = 0 CLEARDATA CLEARINPUT the program works perfectly until an 'S' is entered then skips every file after that...

I use wintegrate a lot as an emulator, file transfer and running PC-based programs. 2 new clients both have accuterm and I'm wondering if their file transfer (import/export) facilities are programmable or are manually managed.

RE: ICONV/OCONV for unix internal timestamp (secs past 00:00 01/01/1970)
Chuck, you need to worry about time zone when rendering the unix epoch time as it is UTC (aka GMT) based. A simple conversion of the unix epoch time to U2 date/time will be incorrect unless you are in Britain in the winter - and who'd be there then ;-) Have a look at http://www.pickwiki.com/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?DateUtility . DateUtility(parseEpochTime,intTimeStamp) will return U2 Date Time based on the local machine time zone. This function could be used as a conversion by wrapping it and globally cataloguing it as $ParseEpochTime OCONV(intTimeStamp,'UParseEpochTime') Cheers, Stuart -Original Message- Behalf Of Stevenson, Charles unix generally keeps track of time as number of seconds past midnight GMT, Jan 1, 1970. Is there a conversion code to convert that to from external date time? If not, have you already written a custom conversion care to share? (I am NOT asking how to roll my own. I just don't want to do so if someone already has it, including figuring out flexability in output format.)

RE: ICONV/OCONV for unix internal timestamp (secspast00:0001/01/1970)
[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Kevin King Why not write a user conversion code that does this calculation as a Uname conversion? That's what I was asking, if anyone already did it. I'd prefer it to be flexible enough to allow various oconv formats and to iconv various strings. For example, what if you just have date don't care about time, etc. Plus it ought to have the property analogous to that of D conversions where: ICONV( OCONV( idate, 'D' ), 'D' ) = idate (What's the set theory word for that property, where each member of a set can be transformed to a corresponding member of another set, and the inverse transformation will always get you back to your starting point?
