Question Flávio Lúcio Naves Júnior · Mar 6

Hi everyone,

I am trying to configure a FHIR Server to authenticate against an external OAuth server using the OAuth FHIR Client Quickstart, which is available in the newer versions of InterSystems IRIS for Health.

During the configuration process I am encountering an issuer validation error.

I have already verified the issuer URL, and it exactly matches the value returned by the OAuth server’s OpenID configuration endpoint (.well-known/openid-configuration).

Example:

Issuer configured in IRIS
https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant-id}/v2.0

Issuer returned by the OpenID configuration
https://login.

Question Hour Abdellatif · 9 hr ago

I’m trying to find a way to manage globals from our Java application. We have two separate features:

  • Managing tables normally using SQL

  • Managing globals, since some globals exist without class or table definitions

Cache version : Cache for UNIX (Red Hat Enterprise Linux for x86-64) 2016.1.1 (Build 108U_SU), Thu Jul 7 2016 09:39:04 EDT

I tried to retrieve the globals tree, update node values, and append nodes using SQL by calling stored procedures, but I couldn’t find any procedures for adding, updating, or deleting nodes.

I also tried using cacheextreme.jar to access the globals API directly.

Question Colin Brough · Mar 5

We have an HL7 feed that contains Lab Results. Each message contains a set of results, identified by a LabReportId. Some LabReportIds can get more than one message / set of results - these are updates, as new results become available, and must be processed in order. Results for different LabReportIds can be processed in any order.

As each message is used to build a PDF, which takes time, we want to run these through a production where the key business process has a Pool Size > 1, while still ensuring that messages for each LabReportId are processed in order.

Question Malaya Acharya · Mar 2

I had configured the environment as follows:

OS: Redhat Linux 9.4

IRIS 2025.2 installed on local directory

IRIS Database: One LVM is created with 20 Storage luns and the LVM is mounted on a mount point. IRIS database is created on that

Primary and Alternate Journal: One LVM is created with 5 Storage luns and the LVM is mounted on a mount point. IRIS database is created on that.

WIJ: One LVM is created with 5 Storage luns and the LVM is mounted on a mount point. IRIS database is created on that.

So Data, WIJ and Journal is mounted on 3 separate mount point.

This is more for my memory that anything else but I thought I'd share it because it often comes up in comments, but is not in the InterSystems documentation. 

There is a wonderful utility called ^REDEBUG that increases the level of logging going into mgr\cconsole.log. 

You activate it by

a) start terminal/login

b) zn "%SYS"

c) do ^REDEBUG

d) change logging level to FFFFFFFF

if you are on you production system (with lots of traffic) I suggest you quickly reproduce the error, rename the cconsole.log file, and repeat the steps above to set the logging level to FF.

Dynamic Entities (objects and arrays) in IRIS are incredibly useful in situations where you are having to transform JSON data into an Object Model for storage to the database, such as in REST API endpoints hosted within IRIS. This is because these dynamic objects and arrays can easily serve as a point of conversion from one data structure to the other.

Anyone up for a round of golf?

Are you fed up of making a machine write code for you? Do you miss thinking through problems yourself? Then you are in luck, this round, I propose adding the rule of no AI use. obviously its a game of honor with no prize, so I shan't be enforcing this, but you'll know... 

Challenge:

Create a function which takes a string as a parameter, and returns the length of thelongest sequence of alternating consonants and vowels. The sequence is broken by having two vowels or two consonants in a

Question Damiano Porrovecchio · Jan 6

Hi everyone,

I am currently setting up InterSystems API Manager (IAM) 3.4.3.11 using Docker. The installation is successful, the license is active, and I can access the Manager (port 8002).

I am now trying to secure the Administration Portal using basic-auth. I've found some documentation stating that I should:

  1. Go to the Teams section in the UI.
  2. Click on Invite Admin to create the first user.
  3. Only then, enable KONG_ENFORCE_RBAC and KONG_ADMIN_GUI_AUTH in the docker-compose.yml.

Question Anderson Negreli · Mar 3

I am currently managing environments running InterSystems IRIS and Caché on Windows servers.

I’m reviewing storage optimization best practices and I have a question regarding a specific Windows drive setting: "Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties."

Based on my research, everything indicates that it is better to disable this option, especially on drives used by databases. However, I couldn't find a specific "official" stance in the documentation explicitly mentioning this checkbox.

Why This Integration Matters

InterSystems continues to push AI capabilities forward natively in IRIS — vector search, MCP support, and Agentic AI capabilities. That roadmap is important, and there is no intention of stepping back from it.

But the AI landscape is also evolving in a way that makes ecosystem integration increasingly essential. Tools like Dify — an open-source, production-grade LLM orchestration platform — have become a serious part of enterprise AI stacks.

Question Malaya Acharya · Mar 1

I have installed IRIS community edition on a local directory in Redhat Linux 9.4.

Created a 10G database on a separate mount point directory  which comes out of a storage volume of 50G.

Also placed Journal and WIJ on 2 separate mount point directories  which comes out of two different storage volume of 50G each.

I want to take a snapshot and recover the snapshot on a secondary host and check the consistency of the database. 

As Storage snapshot will be taken, only Data, Journal and WIJ file placed on Storage volumes will be snapshotted.

Question Malaya Acharya · Mar 5

Is there any Cache setting that needs to be checked while configuring IRIS Community Edition 2025.2 and does it impact WIJ recovery.

Also I have kept Database, WIJ and JOURNAL on the same snapshot group with Consistency . Is it the recommended settings? Am I getting the WIJ mismatch error due to this setting?

What is Unstructured Data?
Unstructured data refers to information lacking a predefined data model or organization. In contrast to structured data found in databases with clear structures (e.g., tables and fields), unstructured data lacks a fixed schema. This type of data includes text, images, videos, audio files, social media posts, emails, and more.

Why Are Insights from Unstructured Data Important?
According to an IDC (International Data Corporation) report, 80% of worldwide data is projected to be unstructured by 2025, posing a significant concern for 95% of businesses.
