Hi,

I have a mirrored database called ROUTER.

I have a primary server T1 and a "Disaster Recovery" server T2.

When I activate ROUTER database on T2, I get the error it says the "Database could not be mounted".

I went to the audit database and it shows "Attempt to access a protected database".

T2 in mirror monintor shows "Connected" "Caught up" "Warning! Some databases need attention"

T2 show the ROUTER database as being "Mounted/R"

Both T1 & T2 are Linux servers. The ROUTER database file IRIS.DAT have the same Linux permissions

Business Services limit

Hi guys,

Is it bad to have too many Business Services in a production and what's the limit, I'm looking to convert our system tasks (around 30 of them) into Business Services and wondering if it's a better option?

Thanks

"Haul" a Portable Registry for Airgapped IrisClusters

Rancher Government Hauler streamlines deploying and maintaining InterSystems container workloads in air-gapped environments by simplifying how you package and move required assets. It treats container images, Helm charts, and other files as content and collections, letting you fetch, store, and distribute them declaratively or via CLI — without changing your existing workflows. Meaning your charts and what have yous, can have conditionals on your pull locations in Helm values, etc.

If you have been tracking how HealthShare is being deployed via IPM Packages, you can certainly appreciate the adoption of OCI compliance storage for the packages themselves using ORAS... which is core to the Hauler solution.

Only method/routine executed as "do Method..." is included into $ESTACK.
How can I modify a method or routine that returns a value so it can be included in $ESTACK?
Example upon executing via Studio Debug ($ESTACK is converted to string with ">" delimiter):
Expected: stackstr = %Debugger.System.DebugStub > LogGenerate > Entry > DirChain > Attributes > LogNew > LogSize > LogFormat > LogWrite
Processes DirChain, LogNew, LogSize, LogFormat are executed as "If Method..."

There's a pattern I've encountered several times where I need to use a temp file/folder and have it cleaned up at some point later.

The natural thing to do here is to follow the patterns from "Robust Error Handling and Cleanup in ObjectScript" with a try/catch/pseudo-finally or a registered object to manage cleanup in the destructor. %Stream.File* also has a "RemoveOnClose" property that you can set - but use with care, as you could accidentally remove an important file, and this flag gets reset by calls to %Save() so you'll need to set it back to 1 after doing that.

There's one tricky case, though - suppose you need the temp file to survive in an enclosing stack level. e.g.:

Hey Community,

The InterSystems team put on our monthly Developer Meetup with a triumphant return to CIC's Venture Café, the crowd including both new and familiar faces. Despite the shakeup in both location and topic, we had a full house of folks ready to listen, learn, and have discussions about health tech innovation!

The operations manager in our company was using structured logging in IRIS to tail information to an on-prem monitoring tool and started to get concerned with the ever-growing size of the output file. He just leaned across the aisle here and informed me that the output file has no mechanism for rolling this file over at a certain point for archival or disposal. Sure enough, I can't find any documentation to refute this.

Is there a way to Remove specific all Addresses from a Provider.Individual.Address before reinserting the Addresses from an HL7 message in Provider Directory?

Most fields we can call %clearFields() however since Addresses come from multiple locations we need to isolate and treat Addresses from this HL7 source as a snapshot.

Thanks

Scott

We have created a CSP application in the path /csp/ourapp. Due to some session handling issues, we created a new web application /csp/ourapp/hl7mapping that points to the sane namespace, and we now access the CSP pages using this new URL. This works fine in the local system.

After deploying the app to server, we are facing issues around compiling CSP pages.

It was encouraging to see more people building VS Code extensions for the recent contest. However I noticed that of of the three extensions requiring credentials with which to make their connections only mine, gj :: dataLoader, leverages the long-established and officially-supported InterSystems Server Manager extension to obtain the connection definitions and to handle credentials securely.
