we are looking at replacing our VMS system with Linux :-( yes a sad day!

now the question has become should we go with Intel or AMD.  personally I think Intel is the way to go for several reasons.

has anyone seen or heard of an AMD being slower or there is a definite performance of one over the other.

thanks for your feedback.

 first our current environment which will be copied over to the new platform

Cache 2015.2 yes we are stuck here due to Vendor and no further support. with the upgrade we will be updating to a newer version of Cache and eventually IRIS when the vendor has certified it.

Hi everyone.

I have a function that may end up being called from a number of transformations at the same time, and within the function there's some Embedded SQL to first check if a local table has an entry, and then adds the entry if it doesn't exist.

To prevent a race condition where the function is called by two transformations and they both end up attempting to insert the same value, I'm looking to use the table hint "WITH TABLOCK" on the insert, but this seems to be failing the syntax checks within vscode.

Are table hints supported with embedded sql?

I'm currently fighting with SoapUI to get the HS WSDLs imported.

My first issue is, the IRISUsername and IRISPassword parameters don't seem to work.

i've tried the following url:

https://ifwap0661.ad.klinik.xxxyyy.de/ucrdev/csp/healthshare/hsreposito…

result:
Error loading: org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlException: org.apache.xmlbeans.XmlException: error: The entity name must immediately follow the '&' in the entity reference.   

not entirely sure what is happening here.

Hi, 

I'm currently working on configuring an Ens.Alert component within Ensemble 2018, and I'm looking to set up a system default settings for it.

Could anyone guide me through the process of setting up these default setting for the Ens.Alert component?  

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

I was struggling with a procedure that was meant to receive a string and use it as a filter, I've found that since I want the procedure to do some data transformation and return a dataset, I needed to use objectScript language.

I've created the procedure using the SQL GUI in the portal, and everything works fine when calling the procedure from the SQL GUI but not through a JDBC connection here is the call "call spPatientOS('2024-04-07T12:35:32Z')"

Hi,

i have this simple json structure:

{
"nTypeTrigger": "ATR",
"sDate": "2024-04-17 15:29:16",
"tRefArray": [{"sID":"132"},{"sID":"151"},{"sID":"233"}],
"tCountries": []
}

I can't find an example to iterate on tRefArray.

I've tried to create a secondary iterator but it doesn't work. Here is my current code:

Can you assign the SessionId to a target field in a DTL. There is a %Ensemble("SessionId") variable that looks like it would be available to use.

Hello!

I wonder if anyone has a smart idea to extract an XML fragment inside a text document (incoming from a stream)?

The XML fragment is surrounded by plain text.

Example:

text...........
text...........
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8 ?>
<Start>
...etc
</Start>
text...........
text...........

The XML is not represented by any class or object in the Namespace.

The XML can look different from time to time

Appreciated if anyone knows how to use Objectscript to extract the XML content.

Regards Michael

Hi

Some of our integrations use a system DSN to interact with our Data Warehouse (built on Microsoft SQL Server).  We've recently migrated from SQL Server 2016 to 2022 and on the day of go-live we changed DNS cname records as a mechanism for redirecting everything to the new server.  This worked great for users and reports, but for some reason we found that HealthShare clung onto the old server name even after several days.

We found when an ODBC connection references a DNS cname, the production hung onto and still queried the old server - we had to restart the production to resolve it.

Hey everyone,

I'm currently running into a very weird issue to where I am trying to connect with a 64 bit version of SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to a HealthShare instance. I have created a System DSN using the Drivers (image below) that were downloaded with the Client version of the install and I'm able to successfully connect using my credentials.

Hello everybody, 

I've been experimenting with Embedded Python and have been following the steps outlined in this documentation: https://docs.intersystems.com/irislatest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cl…

Hi Guys,

I'm new to IRIS and I'm converting from Ensemble 2018 to IRIS but not sure how to convert my cache.data file to IRIS.dat, I copied my cache.data to a new folder then went to IRIS management portal and created a new database and specified the directory to where my cache.data and saved and I thought that IRIS will automatically convert cache.dat to IRIS.dat but instead it created a new empty IRIS.dat, I guess I was wrong in my assumptions !?     

also by leaving the New Volume Threshold size as zero is that mean that I always have only one IRIS.dat instead of having multiple files ?

Spoilers: Daily Integrity Checks are not only a best practice, but they also provide a snapshot of global sizes and density. 
Update 2024-04-16:  As of IRIS 2024.1, Many of the below utilities now offer a mode to estimate the size with <2% error on average with orders of magnitude improvements in performance and IO requirements. I continue to urge regular Integrity Checks, however there are situations where more urgent answers are needed.

With System Alerting and Monitoring (SAM) being deprecated in the near future..

• What is everyone's go-to for Monitoring IRIS? 
• What is readily available?
• What is the cost surrounding it?

Just trying to get ideas floating around of what we might need to start looking at to satisfy IT leadership.

Thanks

Hello community,

in addition to HL7 V2 interfaces mediated via TCP/IP, we have been implementing more and more HS.FHIRServer.Interop.Service based services that are addressed via port 57772.
We would like to secure access to the Management Portal now and have come up with a procedure that I would like to discuss.

I have an odd binary result exporting a specific routine via Studio, Export. Below is the beginning. The seemingly same routine in a different directory is exported fine, regular human readable code. Inspecting ^ROUTINE and ^rIndex did not give me any clues. Any insights?

What user can be used to initiate IRIS container in emergency access mode on startup? 

My VSCode folder was set up to connect to a namespace, but the namespace was deleted. I tried changing the namespace from the menu but it fails (could not retrieve list of namespaces), but I do get the following error message:

This server does not have specified namespace 'FEAT-1-MY-FIRST-ISSUE'.

You must select one of the following: %SYS, CICD-DEMO, CUSTOMER, HSCUSTOM, HSLIB, HSSYS, PERSONAL, PHONEBOOK, USER.

Check your server details in Settings (gitlab-cicd-dev[FEAT-1-MY-FIRST-ISSUE]).

Hi,

I recently moved to a Mac M2. I was already using VSCode on my intel-based Mac, and used the plug "objectscriptQuality for VSCode". It installs nicely, but it does not seem to do anything, not even an error. I installed the same java version (but ARM based) as on my old machine so that prerequisite is met. Also set the path to java in VSCode.

Any clues/has anyone got this working on a Mac based on Apple silicon M1/M2 chips?

Thanks.

Dear All ,  As per the title, 

I was tasked to upgrade an old legacy system to run on Windows 11. 

I am having a problem with Cache mostly.

I have the version: VERSION 5.0.14 , BUILD 5702 , OBJECTS 5.0.5702.0 I would like to know if there is a way to run it on windows 11 somehow.

I know I am asking for a LOT.  Unfortunately, the provider of the suit is long gone, and I can't keep it on windows XP.  Let me know if there is an alternative way to get it up to date even with the lowest / more recent version. 
Thank you in advance for your time.

Hi,

Could it possible to create view with external db table with local persistant table and to access it?

please suggest any thoughts on it..

⏯ Understanding the Structure of HL7 FHIR Resources

Hi Team,

I am trying to use the inbuilt class: EnsLib.HL7.Service.FileService to pass through an HL7 ADT message as a part of an HL7 to FHIR transformation. We have a client requirement, where we are receiving an NTE segment as a part of the ADT message. However, the inbuilt schema structure of the  HL7 ADT message does not support an NTE segment out of the box. We are getting an error message stating "Unrecognized segment".

Please advise, how do we bypass this error?

Thanks

Hi developers!

Just want to share an old but always relevant best practice on namespaces changing @Dmitry Maslennikov shared with me (again).

Consider method:

classmethod DoSomethingInSYS() as %Status

{

set sc=$$$OK

set ns=$namespace

zn "%SYS"

// try-catch in case there will be an error

try {

// do something, e.g. config change

}

catch {}

 zn ns    ; returning back to the namespace we came in the routine

return sc

}

And with new $namespace the method could be rewritten as:

classmethod DoSomethingInSYS() as %Status

{

set sc=$$$OK

new $namespace

set $namespace="%SYS"

// do something

return sc

}

So! The difference is that we don't need to change the namespace manually as it will be back automatically once we return the method.

and we don't need try-catch (at least for this purpose) too.
