There are nfs disk commands (including nfsiostat) included with SystemPerformance, but disabled by default. Enable them by running:
$$Enablenfs^SystemPerformance()
Doing so will add the following nfs commands, for example, on Linux:
/usr/sbin/nfsstat -cn/usr/sbin/nfsiostat [interval] [count]Ensure the commands are installed and runnable from the OS :)
This can be subsequently disabled via $$Disablenfs^SystemPerformance()
Adding an arbitrary OS tool creates a "user" command under ^IRIS.

SQL injection remains one of the most critical vulnerabilities in database-driven applications, allowing attackers to manipulate queries and potentially access or compromise sensitive data. In InterSystems IRIS, developers have access to both Dynamic SQL and Embedded SQL, each with distinct characteristics. Understanding how to use them securely is essential for preventing SQL injection.
Dynamic SQL constructs queries as strings at runtime. While this offers flexibility, it also creates a vulnerability if user input is not handled correctly.

I have an issue and can't seem to find the problem.
In some namespaces i get a 403 Page not Found error for healthconnect/csp/healthshare/[NAMESPACE]/%25ZEN.Dialog.namespaceSelect.cls ; healthconnect/csp/healthshare/[NAMESPACE]/%25ZEN.Dialog.finderDialog.zen && healthconnect/csp/healthshare/[NAMESPACE]/_CSP.UI.Portal.About.zen



It is currently configured in a mirror group and on the other mirror-member i don't encounter the issue. (I have checked if it was because of the member-type Primary and Backup).

Hi Community,
We're super excited to share that we’ve just launched a new free, interactive tutorial designed especially for those who are new to InterSystems IRIS and looking for a clear, practical introduction to its core concepts.
🧑🏫 Data Models of InterSystems IRIS 🧑💻

Hi Community,
In this article, I will introduce my application iris-HL7v2Gen .
IRIS-HL7v2Gen is a CSP application that facilitates the dynamic generation of HL7 test messages. This process is essential for testing, debugging, and integrating healthcare data systems. The application allows users to generate a wide variety of HL7 message types, validate their structure against HL7 specifications, explore the message hierarchy, and transmit messages over TCP/IP to production systems. These features are particularly useful in settings where compliance with HL7 standards is mandatory for interoperability between different healthcare organizations or systems.

Hello all,
I have a EnsLib.HTTP.GenericMessage inbound from a webhook with a GC stream.
My router is defined as the following:
There are lessons we learned from developing and maintaining code for interoperability components within a healthcare institutional environment.
Be prepared to rebuild, improve, extend, and fix the plane mid-flight.
Maintenance windows for hospital systems are often very limited, with some required to be operational 24/7. While the critical health systems such as imaging modalities or registration kiosks — or at least their critical functions — must operate autonomously, efficiency and usability may be compromised when interoperability components malfunction.
Hi all.
I have a rather strange problem.
I've created a method in Python to create a vector for a vector search. So far, so good.
If I call this method from the terminal, it works correctly:
But if I make this same call from a code block in a Business Process, it gets stuck, doesn't respond, and throws the following error:

Does anyone know what's happening and how to fix it?
Thank you in advance
Hi community,
I've been working on a side project that I'd love to get some eyes on: a ground-up rebuild of the classic IRIS Production Monitor using a modern web stack. The existing ZEN/CSP-based portal does the job, but I wanted to explore what a contemporary, real-time version of it could look like.
A standalone Angular web application that connects to any Interoperability-enabled IRIS namespace and gives you a live view of your production — services, processes, operations, queues, event log, and message traffic — all in one screen.
Earlier this year, I set about creating kit to introduce young techy folk at a Health Tech hackathon to using InterSystems IRIS for health, particularly focusing on using FHIR and vector search.
I wanted to publish this to the developer community because the tutorials included in the kit make a great introduction to using FHIR and to building a basic RAG system in IRIS.
As part of the new Interoperability UI wave (see what was new in 2025.1, and 2025.3 by @Aya Heshmat), v2026.1 which is available already as a Developer Preview, and this could be a reason for you to give it a ride - will be shipping the new UI for the Message viewing and searching, including Visual Trace (and other UI goodies).
He's a quick teaser:

Hey Developers,

I may have mentioned this before: I believe the Visual Traces, these sequence diagrams with full content of each step, are a fantastic feature of the IRIS Data platform! Detailed information about how the API works internally, as a visual trace, can be very useful for projects on the IRIS platform. Of course, this applies when we are not developing a high-load solution, in which case we simply don't have time for saving/reading messages. For all other cases, welcome to this tutorial!
In this article I'll show you how to set up in your laptop, very quickly, a cluster of IRIS nodes in sharding. It's not the goal of this article neither to talk about sharding in detail nor define a deployment of a production ready architecture, but to show how to set up quickly, in your own machine, a cluster of IRIS instances configured as shard nodes, with which you'll able to play and test this functionality. If you're insterested in knowing more about sharding in IRIS, take a look at the documentation clicking here.
First and foremost, I want to remark that IRIS sharding will allow us 2 things:
So, as I said, we let for other article playing with shard or federated tables, and just focus now in the previous step, that is, setting up the cluster of shard nodes.

We are trying to track down significant growth within our Namespaces, one big culprit is Ens.AppData (EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot).
Within many of our BPL's we use EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot to return Results from External SQL Stored Procedures or Query's. The same EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot context variable is used for many of these calls within a BPL.
Is there something we should be doing at the end of the BPL to ensure that EnsLib.SQL.Snapshot gets cleaned up and purged from Ens.AppData?
Hello everyone, thanks for reading this question.
I am currently working with Ens.Alerting.ManagedAlert in an interoperability production and I am using the alert suppression mechanism to avoid generating duplicate alerts within a defined time window (for example, 30 minutes).
The configuration works correctly in terms of preventing duplicate alerts from being generated, but I have a question regarding observability.
When an alert is suppressed during the configured time window, I can see log messages such as:
"Managed alert not created for AlertRequest with ID 'XXXX' due to rule 'Rules.
How can I create a Task that tells a Ens.BusinessService to execute its SQL query using the EnsLib.SQL.InboundAdapter?
So far I have come up with
Class OSU.Workday.TerminationsTask Extends %SYS.Task.Definition
{
Parameter TaskName As STRING = "OSU - Workday Termination Update";
Method OnTask() As %Status
{
try{
// Call BusinessService
set tSC = ##class(Ens.Director).CreateBusinessService("OSU.DataSource.Workday.TermService",.tService)
if $IsObject(tService){
set inputMessage = ##class(Ens.StringContainer).Hi Community,
Enjoy the new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube:
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) teams often arrive at the emergency department with patients whose demographics are incomplete or unknown—no medical record number (MRN), no confirmed name, and sometimes no date of birth. Yet EMS transportation notes still need to land in the correct chart.
To support safe and reliable documentation, EMS agencies, third-party integration services, and hospital integration teams build secure interfaces that exchange identifiers and clinical messages.
Hello everyone,
I am André from MedVertical. We are exploring InterSystems-native ways to operationalize continuous FHIR conformance: repeatable regression runs, baseline/delta comparisons, and evidence-style reporting to detect drift after releases and IG changes.
In many FHIR implementations, validation is done “point-in-time” in pre-prod, but conformance degrades in production due to IG/profile updates, terminology changes, mapping evolution, upstream releases, and configuration drift.
