I would like to understand the mechanism of "How data is written to the IRIS Database and in what sequence data is written to Journal, WIJ and IRIS database"
How to execute a stored procedure in a remote DB2 database?
Hi Everyone,
I want to access a stored procedure in a remote DB2 database. The stored procedure in question is linked and receives a numeric value, returning a cursor with N number of rows. Sometimes the number of rows reaches hundreds of thousands, so I need to apply pagination.
I've been reading about the %ScrollableResultSet library, but it doesn't allow me to call a stored procedure.
Here's part of the code:
Set pValor=12345678
Set callSql="CALL Paquete.ClaseSpRemoto(?)"
Set rs=##class(%ScrollableResultSet).

Hi,
I'm pretty sure I'm not the first one to encounter this, so please share your solution
I'm trying to load a package with 2 dependencies, one of them has 5 dependencies..
is there a better tool / script / wizard for that?
IPM version 0.10.6 was released on February 24th, 2026. This version is mostly bug fixes, but does add the -export-python-deps flag to the package and publish commands to include Python dependencies with the IPM module itself. As usual, you can check it out on the GitHub page or through the Community Registry.
Here's the complete changelog:
Added
- #1024: Added flag -export-python-deps to publish command
Fixed
- #996: Ensure COS commands execute in exec under a dedicated, isolated context
- #1002: When listing configured repositories, only show the TokenAuthMethod when a token is defined.

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 IRIShttps://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant-id}/v2.0
Issuer returned by the OpenID configurationhttps://login.
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.
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.
JSON
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight, text-based format designed for structured data interchange. It represents data objects consisting of key–value pairs and arrays, and it is entirely language-independent.
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...

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

Hello InterSystems EHR community,
InterSystems Certification is currently developing a certification exam for CCR Tier 2 users, and if you match the exam candidate description below, we would like you to beta test the exam! The exam will be available for beta testing starting January 27, 2026.
Beta testing will be completed April 30, 2026.
What are my responsibilities as a beta tester?
As a beta tester, we ask that you schedule and take the exam by April 30, 2026.
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:
- Go to the Teams section in the UI.
- Click on Invite Admin to create the first user.
- Only then, enable
KONG_ENFORCE_RBACandKONG_ADMIN_GUI_AUTHin thedocker-compose.yml.
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.

Hear more about the experience from members of the InterSystems certified community:
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.
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.
