I am having a difficult time trying to get DEBUGGING tags working in my xslt transform.

Here are snippets of the xslt I am using:

namespace declaration:

In this article, we’ll build a highly available IRIS configuration using Kubernetes Deployments with distributed persistent storage instead of the “traditional” IRIS mirror pair. This deployment would be able to tolerate infrastructure-related failures, such as node, storage and Availability Zone failures. The described approach greatly reduces the complexity of the deployment at the expense of slightly extended RTO.

During my repeated testing with Docker Desktop, I'm often short on disk space
nd need to clean it over and over as described earlier.
The main reason is the rather uncontrolled growth of ext4.vhdx
that is located on my C: drive by default.
So I decided to move this file to a large external disk.

There are several ways to do this and a detailed guide:

I decided to choose option C) using symlinks.
I did it only partially, especially for my wild-growing virtual data disk.

Hi Everyone,

 I tried to send the Sample XML from Packet Sender to Intersystems IRIS TCP Inbound adapter for learning purpose.
I'm using Predefine d Class : EnsLib.XML.TCPService and the adapter is EnsLib.TCP.CountedInboundAdapter (it selected by Default.)
My sample XML file would be <Patient><Name>John,Williams</Name><MRN>12345</MRN></Patient>
I got an error like 

ERROR <Ens>ErrTCPReadBlockSize: TCP Read(32000) with timeout period (50) failed with : (78):tElement><Patient><Name>Varatha</Name><MRN>12345</MRN></Patient></RootElement>
Please help me to proceed further

 These days the vast majority of applications are deployed on public cloud services. There are multiple advantages, including the reduction in human and material resources needed, 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 favored options is the Google Cloud. It lets us deploy our applications using virtual machines (Compute Engine), Docker containers (Cloud Run), or Kubernetes (Kubernetes Engine). The first one does not use Docker.

Hi all,

I'm wondering if exists any command or method to replace a text using parameters.

In C# I use the Format property

var text = string.format("My name is {0} and I'm {1} years","Kurro","18")
// The value of text will be "My name is Kurro and I'm 18 years"

I've tried with this code... but it works only for the specific parameters

set text = "My name is {0}, and I'm {1} years"
write $Replace($Replace(text,"{0}","Kurro"),"{1}",18)

is possible to do something for more args? I mean, use for a indeterminate number of args

A question for anyone using InterSystems technology:

What are the biggest challenges you’ve faced either trying to hire developers that know ObjectScript, or trying to train developers on ObjectScript?

• Are developers generally willing or resistant to the idea of learning ObjectScript?   Why?
• For developers trying to learn ObjectScript - what was that process like?   What were the main challenges there?
  • In-person learning?  
  • Online class? 
  • Documentation?  
  • What were your impressions?

• How did it compare to other languages?
• What would have made it easier to learn?

After any installs upgrades we get the following 

04/13/23-18:00:00:978 (18668) 0 [Utility.Event] d:\intersystems\healthshare\mgr\enslib\ (Database is readonly)
04/13/23-18:00:00:979 (18668) 0 [Utility.Event] d:\intersystems\healthshare\mgr\hslib\ (Database is readonly)

I think we must have before altered these to not read-only. 

Not sure if the isssue is by default 

-Running task as user with %ALL rather than SYS user

- Should the dbs be as default in the all backup list 

- Should these be not ro so it backs up without error? 

Following one package from the last contest I met a strange problem.
There was the requirement to install jupyter-notebook
I work on Windows and there was some old Python installed
No big surprise: Installation of jupyter-notebook failed
Therefore, the latest version of Python was installed fast.

Big disappointment: the installation of jupyter-notebook failed again!
Because the new installation of Python didn't upgrade the old one.
And also the environment variable PATH was not cleaned
This was not obvious immediately and took endless time and effort.

As you know ObjectScript has neither FOREACH system command nor system function.
But it has a wide room for creativity.

The task is to loop over a global or local array and do something FOR EACH element.

There are 2 possible solutions:

• creating a macro that generates the required code sequences
• creating an Extended Command to perform the action. Both ways are presented here. The macro is a generic and quite flexible solution and easy to adapt if required.

Hi Community,

Watch this video to see how to connect to InterSystems Cloud Services from your C++ application, using the InterSystems ODBC Driver:

⏯ Connecting to InterSystems Cloud Services with ODBC

Reviewing a client console log, I am finding the message:

Terminal disconnect: The specified network name is no longer available.
 

This message is repeated in the log dozens of times per day over the last month. The client has not raised a concern and our monitoring has not detected any issues with client ops. The client is not aware of any recent changes with their apps. I am not familiar with this message and whether this message is benign or whether there is any action required,

We are currently using different iterations of Ens.Director.EnableConfig items to start/stop objects within the Interoperability Namespace. We are looking for ways to minimize our downtime as we move from AIX to a new section of our Network and Red Hat Servers.

Besides using Ens.Director.EnableConfig item and waiting for a response, or just disabling the objects through the Namespace class file, is there a quicker way to stop Services and Operations to ensure the TCP disconnect is sent to those endpoints so we can move the networking rules to ensure they point to new servers?

InterSystems FAQ rubric

You can use the system routine ^DBSIZE to estimate the backup file size (see also Note 1).

^DBSIZE estimates the file size of full, cumulative, and differential backups of the databases selected in the database backup list.

The database backup list is created from [System Administration] > [Configuration] > [Database Backup] > [Database Backup List] in the Management Portal.

For more information, please refer to the document below.

Estimate backup size with ^DBSIZE [IRIS]

I'm trying to write an ObjectScript function that sorts version numbers to help learn ObjectScript. This is all I can think of after staring at VS Code for a while, but I don't know where to go with it. Can someone please help out with a tip? The goal is to take something like ["1.4.5", "0.5.3", "6.3.2", "1.2.4"] and turn it into ["0.5.3", "1.2.4", "1.4.5", "6.3.2"]

ClassMethod SortVersion(input As %String[]) As %String[] {
    Set sorted = []

    for i=1:1:input.%Size() {
        Set version = input.Get(i)

        Set major = $NUMBER($PIECE(version, ".

Several steps should be done in order to secure the connection through xDBC clients to an IRIS Server instance using TLS. Most of the information can be obtained from the documentation about TLS on IRIS here, about configuring the security layer for encrypted connections. In the next paragraphs we will cover an step-by-step guide on how to configure and test the connection using SQL Clients apps using ODBC and JDBC.

Curious if anyone has modified the HL7 TCP/IP Service and adapter class to receive an HL7 message, ACK it, and just dump it straight to a file? I don't want the messages in the engine at all - just receive and dump. Has anyone done this before and have code you're willing to share?

Thank you very much in advance!

Hello everyone,

I am looking for a sort of REST interoperability adapter that can forward REST calls within HealthConnect. If necessary, we need to adjust the requests or responses.

For Fhir calls, we use the FHIR Interoperability Adapter. This works perfectly; a message comes in as HS.FHIRServer.Interop.Request, and a message HS.FHIRServer.Interop.Response goes out. I can make adjustments as needed to both the request and response. I am looking for the same functionality, but then for non-FHIR REST calls.

When I create a web application, the requests come in as %CSP.

In this article, we will establish an encrypted JDBC connection between Tableau Desktop and InterSystems IRIS database using a JDBC driver. While documentation on configuring TLS with Java clients covers all possible topics on establishing an encrypted JDBC connection, configuring it with Tableau might be a little bit tricky, so I decided to write it down.

Securing SuperServer

Before we start with client connections, you need to configure SuperServer, which by default runs on port 1972 and is responsible for xDBC traffic to accept encrypted connections.

Hi Guys,

is there a way to include a simple table view in a Zen page without having to use &html tag, I just would like to organize my fields as attached?

Thanks

Hi Developers,

This April, you've posted 65 new questions on the Developer Community: 

Heading to the InterSystems Global Summit 2023, June 4–7? Attendees can sign up for a free certification exam attempt! See the full exam schedule and registration details.  

Is there any ObjectScript or a basic function that takes a string and separates it into words + punctuation/spaces array/list? Just not to reinvent the wheel. Say, process "It is a test, after all" into "It", space, "is", space, "a", space, "test", ", ", "after", space, "all". Or something to that effect.

I am trying to get SDA3.Container object from a Stream object like following code:

Method HandleECRUpdateRequest(pRequest As CUSTOM.CORE.Message.ECRUpdateRequest, ByRef pResponse As Ens.Response) As %Status
{

               Set tContainer=##Class(HS.SDA3.Container).%New()
               $$$ThrowOnError(tContainer.InitializeXMLParse(pRequest.ContentStream, "SDA3"))
              
               Set tEventDescription=tContainer.EventDescription

But it tContainer seems to be empty. The tEventDescription is set to empty. I need work on the whole HS.SDA3.

I need to list the calls from all business service/processes (DTL, BPL and code)  - either to another business process or a business operation. i assume this is possible, as they can draw the lines on a production diagram so imagine there must be a way to do it but im scratching my head.    Any help appreciated...

I did some experiments on my local machine and found out that IRIS seems to associate each request (eg: CSP request) to a dedicated process named IrisDB.exe

This process has 3 threads, and one of them seems to be the main working thread (that will the handle request).

If I spawn many concurrent requests, the number of IrisDB processes on my local machine will grow (to make sure each request can be handled in parallel).

It seems there is a limit : it will create no more than 64 processes to handle requests (eg: even if 100 concurrent requests are send to IRIS).

Hey Developers,

Enjoy watching the new video on InterSystems Developers YouTube:

⏯ Breaking Data Silos Through Strategic Healthcare Partnerships @ Global Summit 2022

Creating your own commands or shortcut is one of the strongest features of ObjectScript
If you create your own Language Extensions to ObjectScript you mostly have to find the
proper %ZLANGC00 or %ZLANGV00 or %ZLANGF00 and add the extensions manually.

A few utilities do it already automatically (ZPM, ZME, ..)
This utility allows you to add your extensions also programmatically.

• eg. at first run, or during installation I found this quite useful for my Docker-based demos as it all happens at start time.

This package includes a demo example to visualize the operation of this
