Hello All,

I have the docker container community version (2023.1) if IRIS 4 Health installed and running, but it sees that in the HSLIB namespace I see that the HS package is empty. I downloaded this container from the intersystems container registry.

Is this supposed to be empty? How do i get it populated? Am I missing something?

Version Info
(IRIS for UNIX (Ubuntu Server LTS for x86-64 Containers) 2023.1 (Build 229U))

i tried to install SAM 2.0.1. on a redhat 8 server.

i use docker for managing the containers.

I have followed the documentation for the installation and deployment of SAM step by step

when trying to start the SAM with the script i have an container that can't be created and the prompt not responding 

must kill the process to stop .

Does anyone have an idea?

Hey Developers,

Watch this video to learn about observability of your InterSystems IRIS application with InterSystems System Alerting and Monitoring (SAM) and modern DevOps tooling:

⏯ Observability with InterSystems IRIS @ Global Summit 2022

Hello,

We currently have the following scenario: We have a bussiness SOAP Operation, where we get a SAML String and we convert it into a %SAML.Assertion object correctly.

👩‍💻👨‍💻 We would need to send the SAML Assertion inside the SOAP Header to the Target System.

First of all thanks for reading, and thanks for answering.

We currently have opened Log Soap and we do not observe it being added to the SOAP Header, as you would observe in the following Log Soap:

05/24/2023 08:53:37 *********************
Output from Web client with SOAP action = urn:ihe:iti:2007:CrossGatewayQuery

Sometimes we need to know for sure if the current environment has sufficient cores, memory, and bandwidth to support the planned number of users and such SLAs as latency, response time, and availability. This is true for databases and backends. This is why it is mandatory for critical applications and databases to simulate the users simultaneous/concurrent requests and collect metrics about performance and availability.

The most popular tool to do load and performance tests is called JMeter. It is an open-source tool to set database and backend requests with multiple threads (one per user) an

Hi,

I have refreshed my TEST system database from my DR box.

TEST consists of 2 linux servers TEST_NODE1 & TEST_NODE2 which are mirrored as PRIMARY failover and BACKUP failover

This is what I've done:

1. Remove TEST_NODE2 as Backup member using do ^MIRROR

2. Remove TEST_NODE1 mirror configuration using SMP (System Management Portal) GUI

3. Stop IRIS on TEST_NODE1 & TEST_NODE2

4. Copy files IRIS.DAT  from DR to TEST_NODE1

5. Start IRIS on TEST_NODE1

6. Turn off mirror flags on DB files on TEST_NODE1 using do ^MIRROR ('Remove one or more mirrored databases')

7. Create mirror on TEST_NO

Nowadays, most applications are deployed on public cloud services. It brings many advantages including savings in human and material resources, the ability to grow quickly and cheaply, greater availability, reliability, elastic scalability, and options to improve the protection of digital assets. One of the most popular options is AWS. It allows us to deploy our applications usings virtual machines (EC2 service), Docker containers (ECS service), or Kubernetes (EKS service). The first one, instead of utilizing Docker, employs a virtual machine with Windows or Linux where you can install your se

How many times do we find ourselves rebuilding, copy-pasting, adapting, Business Operations that make calls to REST services, and only adapting one or another part of the final code. This is annoying a lot. To resolve this our inconvenience, I present to you Interopway REST, a set of classes (a micro framework) that allows us to just add Business Operation to Production and use it.

The project is hosted on github, https://github.com/cristianojs/interopway_rest, it is open and we are accepting collaborations.

Let's understand how this works.

I am often asked to review customers' IRIS application performance data to understand if system resources are under or over-provisioned.

This recent example is interesting because it involves an application that has done a "lift and shift" migration of a large IRIS database application to the Cloud. AWS, in this case.

A key takeaway is that once you move to the Cloud, resources can be right-sized over time as needed. You do not have to buy and provision on-premises infrastructure for many years in the future that you expect to grow into.

Continuous monitoring is required. Your application transaction rate will change as your business changes, the application use or the application itself changes. This will change the system resource requirements. Planners should also consider seasonal peaks in activity. Of course, an advantage of the Cloud is resources can be scaled up or down as needed.

For more background information, there are several in-depth posts on AWS and IRIS in the community. A search for "AWS reference" is an excellent place to start. I have also added some helpful links at the end of this post.

AWS services are like Lego blocks, different sizes and shapes can be combined. I have ignored networking, security, and standing up a VPC for this post. I have focused on two of the Lego block components;

• Compute requirements.
• Storage requirements.

In this tutorial, I’d like to talk about Class Queries. To be more precise, about the Queries based on user-written code:

A lot of people disregard this type of query just because they aren’t very comfortable with writing lots of ObjectScript code for the methods or they don’t see how they can use it in their relational apps. But to be honest, for me – it’s one of the coolest inventions for the relational model in IRIS! It lets you expose whatever information you want (not limited to tables of your database) as a relational resultset for a client. Thus, basically, you can wrap no matter wha

Hi Community,

You probably have already seen this abbreviation SSO on different InterSystems sites: Community, Learning Portal, Global Masters, etc. It basically stands for Single Sign-On. This means that you need only one set of login and password and you can access all the Developer Ecosystem resources.

You may have already heard that, starting with IRIS and HealthShare HealthConnect 2023.2 versions, the internal Apache Server will be removed from the default installation, so it will be necessary to have an external application server such as Apache Server or NGINX.

In this article I am going to proceed to install a HealthShare HealthConnect 2023.1 so that it works with a pre-installed Apache Server. For this I will use a virtual machine on which I have installed an Ubuntu 22.04.

Installing Apache Server

As we have indicated, we must previously install our Apache Server and we will do so f

Hi,

I'm trying out VS Code with IRIS for Health 2023.2 (not available in above dropdown) in a local container.  I can open read-only files in the Objectscript viewer and have a local folder connected to the correct namespace.  However, when I make changes and try the "import and compile" option, I get:

The first four chars of <filepath> appear to have been truncated

Hi,
just want to know if indexes in IRIS / SQL are autobuilding.

I define an index in a table and then i costantly do a lot of insert/delete in that table. Will i face index problem? Do i need to rebuild it often?

Thanks

Programming and languages

Being a programmer nowadays is basically the geek version of being a polyglot. Of course, most of us here, in the InterSystems Community, “speak ObjectScript”. Howeever, I believe this wasn’t the first language for many people. For instance, I had never heard about it prior to getting the appropriate training at Innovatium.

The most fascinating part of this is that even though we are able to learn any language and become fluent in it, we will always have our favorites – the ones we feel more comfortable and familiar with, and, as a rule, it has a lot to do with the

Methods written in ObjectScript can use pass-by-reference arguments to return information to the caller. Python doesn’t support pass-by-reference arguments, so Embedded Python in IRIS doesn’t support them either. That's it, that's the end of the post, hope you liked it. 😉 But wait, what about the Classic Rock & Roll?

Actually, since returning values in method arguments can be useful, this post demonstrates several ways to do this, between ObjectScript and Embedded Python. So let’s start with the simplest example: calling an ObjectScript method that already has a pass-by-reference argument fro

Hi,
i'm working with an instance of IRIS that does a lot of integration (HS) and i need to schedule all the cleaning jobs for the productions.

Is there a way to "clone" the purge task for all the namespaces?

Is it possible to abort system start during SYSTEM^%ZSTART?

If some conditions are not met, I want to shut down IRIS instead of continuing with the startup.

Good afternoon,

first thank you from heart and mind, mind and heart; for reading, thinking, reflecting, responding, and above all explaining a possible solution and/or documentation to address this doubt.

We would need a way to get inside a SOAP Web Service the SAML Assertion, and then, send it directly to the endpoint throught a SOAP Operation.

Currently we have researched and developed how to get the SAML Assertion with the following code:

Class Servicios.RESNS.ConsultaRecetas Extends EnsLib.SOAP.Service [ ProcedureBlock ]
{

/// This is the namespace used by the ServiceParameter NA
