#Ensemble

Problem:

A file-based business service uses a local path on a Linux machine that is actually a mounted CIFS share. The mount is "soft" and is designed to not cache data, etc. There are times however when the remote system offering up the share (it's a Windows machine I believe) gets bounced or otherwise hung up the business service in the Ensemble production just hangs.

Un-mounting the network share doesn't affect it, no process kill command affects it, and even going so far as to "kill -9" the process outside of Cache does nothing, either.

I'm doing some Schema changes.  I used our existing standard schema as a base, which was already based on 2.3.  So let's call our existing one Custom.MHC.Schema (based on 2.3).  I created Custom.MHC.Schema.Advanced (based on Custom.MHC.Schema) and copied down one of the code tables then made a change to it.

When I ran a message through, the code table change didn't show up.  I noticed in the message viewer that the DocType is still Custom.MHC.Schema:ADT_A01 but the DocType Category is Custom.MHC.Schema.Advanced.

I have changed the HL7 Service Message Schema Category setting and I also tried

Hello,

This example shows an "HL7 to Batch File" example where the header contains "dynamic" information; in this case the total number of rows in the batch file is included in the header (using the same technique we could place this info in the trailer as well).

Hi all,

 I already enabled the IIS configuration for using HTTPS to all requests (using * wildcard) and all my CLS, CSP and ZEN pages are working nice through HTTPS.

 My REST Business Service parameters and Method definition:

Class ocx.bs.rest.Service Extends EnsLib.REST.Service
{
Parameter ADAPTER = "EnsLib.HTTP.InboundAdapter";
Parameter EnsServicePrefix = "/CUSTOMERS";

Method OnProcessInput(pInput As %Stream.Object, Output pOutput As %Stream.Object) As %Status

Thanks a lot,

I was asked about using date-based criteria in the file spec for an inbound file adapter.
It looks like the file spec field only accepts simple wildcards (*, ?), so I'm wondering if someone knows of a clever way of doing this preferably without creating a custom adapter/service class.
An example of the use case:
An upstream system continually writes records to a file named with the current day's date. At midnight it opens a new file with the new day's date:

2016-07-14.dat
2016-07-15.dat
Shortly after midnight on July 15 we want Ensemble to pick up 2016-07-14.dat for processing, but ignore

Took a look around and didn't find any.  I'm playing with setting it up now in our dev environment but reading walls of text only gets me so far.

We had a major problem recently where a participant was sending unexpected data. It was not enough to throw an error or warning in the actual trace, but when examining the message in the viewer it did show the following:

Build Map Status = 'ERROR <EnsEDI>ErrMapSegUnrecog: Unrecognized Segment 4:'CON' found after segment 3 (CON)'

How can I query for these or be notified of them?  This caused major ramifications but we did not notice it.  I have Managed Services investigating but I want to cover all my bases.

Hi. This about  a migration of code from a DEV environment to a PROD environment.

If an (under development) business host is Enabled in DEV environment  and the production class is migrated across environments, this means that the Enabled status of the same business host in PROD would also become enabled (even if it may have been disabled before the update)

I want to migrate the production class, but leave the enabled/disabled status of business hosts the same - so - i make a list of them, upgrade - then go through each one resetting their status to the original setting using Ens.Director.

Hello Community,

I am trying to create a simple Ensemble DTL transform using the GUI.  In order to test something very simple, I have created a transform that does nothing.  

I'm using test data from here: https://www.emedny.org/HIPAA/5010/5010_sample_files/835%20Sample%20(Ins…

 It's a very small test 835 file.

My transform looks like this in the compiled class:

<transform sourceClass='EnsLib.EDI.X12.Document' targetClass='EnsLib.EDI.X12.Document' sourceDocType='HIPAA_5010:835' targetDocType='HIPAA_5010:835' create='copy' language='objectscript' >
<if condition=

Hi,

Does anyone have a sample that demonstrates how to use the Data Transformation option create='existing', in order to update an existing object by its ID?  My use-case is that I have an HL7 message coming in which contains data on a patient that may or may not already exist in a (non-HL7) table.  I want to use the PatientID from the (source) HL7 message, check if that patient exists in the (target) object, and if so, insert some new data into the existing patient, or if not, create a new patient.

I believe that to use create='existing', I need to provide the DTL with the PatientID as a

InterSystems has corrected a defect with Mirroring that can impact data integrity

The defect is present in all released versions Caché, Ensemble, and HealthShare beginning with 2015.2.0. It is present for all platforms and affects both failover and asynchronous mirroring configurations.

First post!  In order to somewhat redeem myself for an unnecessary call to support,  I've decided to post some classes that I've written to monitor certain metrics inside our Ensemble Live instance (yeah, Kyle, you WERE laughing at me, but it's okay). What the classes do is to run queries and code to get database sizes, status of the mirror, counts of rows in tables such as EnsLib.HL7.Message and Ens.MessageHeader. The data is collected and written to tables and then an email is sent out daily upon completion. I've found this quite useful in keeping an eye on what's going on.

Hi,

I'm trying to perform a SELECT with parameters using the EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter. The SELECT returns results but seems to discard the parameters I try to send. I have tried two methods.

First:

Set par(1) = "20160630"
Set par(1,"SqlType") = 12
Set sql = "SELECT Cod, Ing, score FROM [bbdd].[dbo].[vw_Test] WHERE MyParam >= '?'"
Set tSC = ..Adapter.ExecuteQueryParmArray(.QueryResultSet,sql,.par)

Second:

Set par(1) = "20160630"
Set par(1,"SqlType") = 12
Set sql = "SELECT Cod, Ing, score FROM [bbdd].[dbo].[vw_Test] WHERE MyParam >= '?'"
Set tSC = ..Adapter.ExecuteQuery(.QueryResultSet,sql,par)

Although

Hello guys,

I've built a simple rule , as follows:

Thing is, in rule 2, the operation succeeds, the message reachs BO HL7, but in rule 1 it does not go through. In rule 1, I have two different conditions, but they are linked by an OR and one of the conditions is simply IF 1=1.

Do you guys have any clue on why rule 1 does not reach BO HL7?

Thanks

InterSystems is pleased to announce that Caché and Ensemble 2016.1.1 are now available on all supported platforms.

This followup announcement adds all the OpenVMS versions that were excluded in the announcement last week.

My manager wants to send a couple of people to one of InterSystems's courses about developing Ensemble productions. I work in a healthcare setting, but my group does not do much work with HL7 interfaces. We mainly use Ensemble  to implement custom (non-HL7) interfaces and web services/clients.

With this in mind, which of the two available courses would make the most sense for us - Building Healthcare Productions or Building Business Productions? Has anyone taken one or both and, if so, which would you recommend?

Hello,

I am looking for a routine or global that can help me see what is the  REST Operation output. Similar to  ISCSOAP for SOAP web services operation.

Occasionally I see a production item with a little 2 flag.  When it has that, there is an "Item" dropdown.  What does this mean?

this is catching  me all the time, again and again...

Haven't worked with XML VDOC for some time, I can't figure out, what is the correct way of using Property path. Can someone please help me to refresh my memory.

Simple example: I have a class called Body, with Value and Topic properties. I created a XML Schema for this class and imported it into Ensemble. So i have a category called message, with Body as DocType structure and Name and Topic properties of Body complex type ($2:Value and $2:Topic are element names)

My rule looks this way:

However, the rule is ALWAYS evaluated as TRUE.

Hello,

We are sometimes asked for examples of how to do 3rd party SQL database selects/updates/inserts/stored procedures from an Ensemble SQL Business Operation.

In the attached file there are 4 sample Ensemble Operations that demonstrate four different types of transactions with an external SQL DB:

1:  The "CheckExists" shows how to use an Operation to do a select statement to see if a given patient MRN exists in a DB
2:  The ExecSP Operation shows how to execute a stored procedure from a BO
3:  the Update Operation does an Update
4:  the Insert Operation does an Insert

Given the samples, one can

Hello,

Why I don't see the full content of a XML file inside a Ens.StreamContainer Message?

When  I look into the content I only see:

<?xml version="1.0" ?><!-- type: Ens.StreamContainer  id: 5 -->
<StreamContainer><OriginalFilename>C:\Temp\In\aa.xml</OriginalFilename><Stream></Stream><Type>FC</Type></StreamContainer>

How I can see all the content? There is any setting to modify this behavior?

I am using a EnsLib.File.PassthroughService,

When I open a Business Process in Studio I am shown a BPL diagram.

 I want to see a class definition directly.

Is there any way to achieve that behaviour in Studio?

I am pleased to announce the field test of Caché and Ensemble 2016.3 -  with many new improvements.

The product team at InterSystems looks forward to your participation in the field test and feedback over the coming months.

Some of the more signification changes in 2016.3 are new RESTful APIs for iKnow and broader APIs for programmatic control of multiple servers (enterprise manager).  As always, there are a host of scalability and performance improvements, including improvements to the core database and SQL.  And hundreds of smaller improvements and corrections.

Hi all - I'm running a Zen page that inherits from %Zen.Component.page, and I'd like to step through code and debug it.  Is this possible, and how?

I've tried to attach to a process that I think is mine (it has my internal IP address) but is using "Unknown User".  Any ideas on where to start debugging the page  -- this page calls lots of other pages.  I'd thought I'd start at the home page.  

Perhaps I need to navigate to my page that I want to debug, and attach at that point.

Any info on the debugger in this atypical use is appreciated.

Thank  you,

Laura

I am just trying to make a quick hand off HTTP production.I have the class built and compiled onto the server and the production is running as a service.When the production is called (by an inbound job) I can see that the HTTP.InboundAdapter is being used successfully and the stack continues all the up to ProcessInput where OnProcessInput is called in Ens.BusinessService.

Java Business Services and Operations

In Ensemble 2016.3 ‘Java Business Hosts’ provides the means to create new Business Services and Business Operations using Java without need for any ObjectScript coding. There are two major reasons to use this capability:

•  Add new protocols to Ensemble using available Java libraries.
•  Allows Java developers to create custom business services and operations without needing to learn Caché ObjectScript..

At Global Summit there were two sessions and an experience lab covering Java Business Hosts that got a lot of attention and a very positive reaction.
