#Globals

I have a %GlobalBinaryStream object that I'm trying to save as a local file after being received through a SOAP Web Service.

To do this, I created a %Stream.FileBinary object and wanted to set where the stream copied to this object would be saved by using either the DefaultStreamDir() ClassMethod or the NewFileName() ClassMethod. However, the documentation isn't very helpful on how to use these ClassMethods.

Right now, I have the below code:

We are migrating to new servers, and I need to copy the information from Business Partner's over to the new server. Is this information in a Global or SQL table somewhere that I can export and import into the new IRIS environment?

Thanks

I know this problem something to do with sort and collation and string comparison vs numeric only strings, but I can't fathom out the details of it.

Out of curiosity, I was looking in ^ROUTINE global to see how routines are stored internally.

I found out that lot of nodes are displaying "~pointer" as associated value (eg: instead of a string).

What are those pointers ? My guess is that it references some cache internal structure (eg: some nodes inside a B-Tree).

Is there a easily way to see what is behind ? Are pointers useful for user globals or is this something purely internal to Cache database ?

Hello community,

is there anything special to consider when running a foundation production regarding purge jobs (Ens.Util.Tasks.Purge)? I am thinking specifically of the QuickStreams, which according to my information are stored in a temporary database until the system is restarted. Since a system reboot is much less frequent then the purges, I wonder what happens to the QuickStreams whose messages and headers have already been purged. Is there a way to view Quickstreams (not content, but rather metadata) e.g. via the Management Portal?

Thanks for your comments and hints,

Hi, devs!

Consider you have an arbitrary global with an unknown amount of indexes.

How to print all the values to the terminal with Embedded Python?

Hello All,

I have a class method on the DocRepo server that needs to query the data value of a global variable on the Edge server.

I have looked at the documentation for 'Global Structure,' but I didn't find anything that helped.

Global Structure | Using Globals | InterSystems IRIS Data Platform 2022.1

I am able to access this global easily from the Edge server using the $Get function, but I need to access it from the DocRepo server.

Hi there have been various posts around how to clean up globals without parent data but none have gone into how you solve these issues.

Our database is approaching 600gb in size so i am looking into how to reduce this.

We use standard purge tasks.

Our cache stream class has a global size of 2463243 from running global size so it is what i would like to tackle first.

1) is there any way i can find based on my oldest message session for where most of these globals

I am creating "models" that contain rows in several class tables called Model, Path, Node.

So, model 19 includes 1 row in the Model table, 11 rows in the Path table, and 10 rows in the Node table.

I'd like to write some utilities to "move" model 19 from one instance to another.

Hey InterSystems Community!

This is probably far-fetched - is there a way to get notified/get a piece of code triggered whenever the state of a global changes?

Now what could I possibly want with that? Quite simple! I would like to forward the content of a global (in this case the "FSLog" global written by the FHIR implementation) while adding timestamps to it - to create some sort of file-based logging for it.

I started some development with the IRIS 2020.4 version and did not continue it for some months.

Now I just wanted to continue, but saw the license is not valid anymore.

Is there still a possibility to upgrade to 2021.2 community edition and to recover the globals from the old edition without having a valid license key?

In Caché, it's possible to iterate a local array using $QUERY() :

set a("foo") = 50
set a("bar") = 30

set key = "a"
for
{
     set key = $QUERY(@key)
     quit:key="" 
     write key_" = "_@key
}

This code works perfectly, unless it's called in a job (eg: a routine called by the JOB command).

Hi colleagues!

Is there a way to export globals in XML if I have the access to Management Portal or any other web app?

Currently, it gives the option to export into gof format only.

Hi:

I'm looking for some help with JSON notation for a global structure. I need a way to represent a global structure in JSON where the global structure both has a value at a given node as well as sub-nodes.
