#Globals

Is there a way to omit or skip rollback of some data changes during a transaction rollback? Maybe some sort of "autonomous transaction"?

The issue is with error logging in transaction. For example we may have in nested calls the following structure:
TS
<some code>
<error happens>
TRO 1
<error log to database>
but if this code is in another transaction, and that rolls back we lose error data.

Is there a way to do something like
TS
<some code>
<error happens>
TRO 1

<autonomous transaction start\flag>
<error log to database>

so error log will be stored anyway?

We are attempting to "Repoint" old class data to new class data to save disk space and data redundancy across multiple tables. This works to a point.  In essence the two classes are sharing the same data / Index / stream globals.  But if an ID in the Old_Class is opened, a property is modified, and saved the property that is in the New_Class (but not in the Old_Class) is NULLed / blanked.

Simplified explanation of data and what’s occurring.

Hello everyone,

My team lead mentioned that users can sometimes create globals directly without associating them with tables or classes. In this case, these globals would not be accessible via SQL.

Is this correct? Can a global exist independently in this way, and if so, is there a specific approach to access or manage them without SQL?

Hi Team, 

Can I please check if anyone has built a simple web interface for maintaining custom SQL lookup class.  

We have a simple persistent class in HealthShare which is used for storing Pathology test codes. Test codes in this lookup class is used for message filtering and applying additional logic when processing pathology results/orders. 

We want to make this class available to external users from pathology (not the usual management portal users) to maintain so that they can add/edit/delete test codes as required.

Trying to create a new SQL Storage map on existing cache Global in the following format - ^MYGLO("R",rec)=data where the 'data' is built using $zel. e.g. $zel(data,1)="p1", $zel(data,2)="p2" etc... and the ^MYGLO("R",123)=data.

I'm having 2 issues.

Hi IRIS experts!

I have a parameter in a class that stores a global name:

Parameter GlobalName = "^AGlobal";

then I'm trying to call it as:

set gn=$name(..#GlobalName)

to use it later as:

set @gn@("index")="value"

But! I'm having syntax at set gn=$name(..#GlobalName)

What am I doing wrong?

Hello Community,

When I run the following code with x undefined in terminal, it throws a syntax error and returns control to the program stack. After issuing a GO command, execution continues, and setting the global variable ^zz1.

code 1:

test.mac
if$Data

 if I assign the result of $D(@x@(a,b,c)) to a local variable like using , and then use , the code fails(global is not set) working as expected.

Code 2

test1.mac

So, Why The body of the if statement is not tied to the success and it sets the global in the code 1.

Thanks!

Hello Community,

I have a queue that I need to traverse and perform operations on. To distribute the workload across multiple processes, I used a Work Queue Manager do process and I'm not expecting any status from it So, I skipped Sync / WaitForComplete in my implementation

I have the class ConfigUtils.ConfigSettingsTable, which is a persistent object.  I know I need to map packages from the original namespace. In this case, I have mapped ConfigUtils.ConfigSettingsTable from the originating namespace (IRISTST database) across all other namespaces.

With this, I am able to see the table in SQL Explorer in each namespace, but the same data is not shared across environments. For example, in the namespace, I can see the table, but I don't see the same information that I see in the table in the original IRISTST namespace.

Hello Community,

The subroutine ^routine is not executed while the queue is being processed in WorkMgr. However, it works when defined as a function. Is it mandatory to define subroutine^routine as a function for it to execute properly?

testwqm.mac
 set##class

Thanks!

Hello Community,

Is it possible to track or determine where the global variable was set (routine or class) in a form of like label+offset^routine?

Hello, 

We noticed from the integrity logs that some of the namespaces in our integration engine are using large amount of space ( ~380GB ) for the global ^EnsHL7.Segment. 

We have culling implemented for large globals like MessageHeader and MessageBody.

Is it a standard process to implement culling for ^EnsHL7.Segment global and any idea about what will be the impact of adding culling to this global?

As the title suggests, I would like to programmatically export each HL7 schema category as XML, either as a stream object or to a file. How would I go about doing this?

As the title suggests, I would like to programmatically export each individual data lookup table as XML, either as a stream object or to a file. How would I go about doing this?

I have been trying to track down an issue we are seeing in our TEST environment with Memory usage.

We have Several BP's for years now that take a HL7 message, parse it apart, and make calls to a Custom EnsLib.SQL.OutboundAdapter to have it execute Insert/Select/Update/Delete stored procedures against a MS SQL Database via JDBC connection. We are using Microsoft's JDBC 12.2 driver to do this.

What we are seeing is that IRIS.WorkQueue globals are being defined for these calls but then the IRIS.WorkQueue is not being cleaned up and taking up large amounts of Memory.

Hi everyone,

We have successfully configured the Patient Index and are now looking to bring it to upper environments. Our plan is to export the Linkage Definition and import it into higher environments to avoid any manual work. However, I am having trouble finding an export option in the Linkage Definition Designer and locating the globals that hold this setup.

I would greatly appreciate any tips or guidance on how to export/import the Patient Index configuration between environments.

Thank you in advance!

Hi:

We are looking again into DB size. Looking at our Ens.MessageHeaderI GSIZE is 3767107

Looking at the global i'm not sure if we have had an issue in the past so much of the data looks the same, we only have 3 values in the  $zwc and although some of the data in the $c between 1 and 18630 it looks very similar as if there was an issue in the past. But if anyone has any examples of their index param this would help to know if our global is abnormal. 

Data below 

^EnsLibH"Extent"

Hi everyone,
I have this global with 2 informations in it: Reference (ex: 1329) and Code (ex: JMMK-G1D6).

^DataTest    =     3
^DataTest(1)    =     $lb("","1329","JMMK-G1D6")
^DataTest(2)    =     $lb("","1516","AMEV-GVPF")
^DataTest(3)    =     $lb("","2333","4QC6-4HW3")

With ObjectScript, i want to test if Reference 1516 exists in the global. 
In the InterSystems portal, i can do it with SQL (SELECT count(*) FROM DataTest where Reference = '1516'), but can we do the same in ObjectScript without SQL and manipulating the global directly ?

Thanks for help.

Hi all,

I have a situation where I am writing to global from different processes - let's call it an Event Queue.
There is then a different process that uses $order to read through the data - the PubSub processing BP.

Sometimes the writing of this global will form part of a transaction that also insert data into other tables, using tstart and tcommit.
If there is some issue, it will roll back, and the entry written to the global will also roll back.

In cache studio there are features, dialog boxes, that help map data from a global to class properties.
I have used %CacheSQLStorage quit a bit, or have in the past, to map globals to classes.

I haven't been able to find a similar feature in VisualStudio.
Do I need to upgrade to IRIS to be able to use VisualStudio to map global properties to classes?

Thanks for your time,
Richard

Hello Community,

The process private global doesn't impact the $storage. But, Why the value has decreases at first time of initialization. 

Just want to ensure about it.

I am inspecting our DB globals in order to reduce sizes of the worst offenders if possible. When I come to a large global, I am interested which of its nodes are the largest. Hence code below with unexpected different results. Any explanations why are results different?

testpartialGlobalsSize
 d partialGlobalsSize(dirName,globalName)
partialGlobalsSize(dir,global)
S sub="",path="C:\Cachesys\mgr\"_dir_"\",searchGlobal="^"_global
S x=##Class(%GlobalEdit).GetGlobalSize(path, global,.Alloc,.Size)
W global,",",Size,! ; Got  725 here
S x=##Class(%GlobalEdit).GetGlobalSizeBySubscript(path,global,global,.

Good morning,

First of all thanks for your help and time.

We find ourselves at a crossroads in our development journey, and we're reaching out to the community for insights and guidance regarding a critical aspect of our data management strategy.

Our current challenge revolves around the persistence of data in Globals, specifically when it comes to purging. The issue at hand is that, despite purging, data stored in Globals under the current %Persistent classes remains intact. To address this, we are contemplating a shift from %Persistent to %SerialObject for each relevant class.

Dear Community,

i need help to access to a Global like ^name over ODBC (SQL)
i will visit this global in a loop from a php site. It a access over SQL or ODBC possible?

Thanks for help and marry Christmas

I'm working for an organisation that is running a very old version of InterSystems Cache (5.016) which runs on AIX . The last two times we have re-booted Cache, we have encountered rollbacks. I've been asked two questions. During the rollback it was "How long is it going to take?" and after the system returned, it was "So what caused it?". My answer to both was "I don't know".

I need to develop a tool to help to get what data is being consumed by a certain process, in order to get all data used to build an automated test scenario.

For example, some user process will pull data from ^GLOBAL(1)="dataString", ^GLOBAL(2)="dataString2", ^GLOBAL1(1)="data1String", ^GLOBAL2(4)="data2String4". Amidst all other data on these Globals, I will ignore everything that was not used in the user process, and get the specific keys used on it.

Currently I have a program that is going to be used to compare global nodes between namespaces. Using nested FOR statements I am stepping through global nodes and comparing between the namespaces, if the global values are different I then parse the node comparing each delimited segment.

This is working.

I want to now be able to set what global I am in as a variable to expand on this concept. 

Program architecture

1.Initializing program that has user prompts to change starting nodes. This program contains the FOR nests to step through nodes.
