Hello,

I am quite new to the InterSystems world. I have one of my OBX 5 fields having this value "blood work was done<>tested positive for anemia<>tested negative for hepatitis". I have a lookup table "AnemiaResults" with a key of TESTED POSITIVE FOR ANEMIA. My issue is that since OBX 5 has other characters/text  (and OBX is a repeating segment) , I am unable to use the Exists function. Any idea how to tackle this? Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. 

After any installs upgrades we get the following 

04/13/23-18:00:00:978 (18668) 0 [Utility.Event] d:\intersystems\healthshare\mgr\enslib\ (Database is readonly)
04/13/23-18:00:00:979 (18668) 0 [Utility.Event] d:\intersystems\healthshare\mgr\hslib\ (Database is readonly)

I think we must have before altered these to not read-only. 

Not sure if the isssue is by default 

-Running task as user with %ALL rather than SYS user

- Should the dbs be as default in the all backup list 

- Should these be not ro so it backs up without error? 

InterSystems FAQ rubric

You can use the system routine ^DBSIZE to estimate the backup file size (see also Note 1).

^DBSIZE estimates the file size of full, cumulative, and differential backups of the databases selected in the database backup list.

The database backup list is created from [System Administration] > [Configuration] > [Database Backup] > [Database Backup List] in the Management Portal.

For more information, please refer to the document below.

Curious if anyone has modified the HL7 TCP/IP Service and adapter class to receive an HL7 message, ACK it, and just dump it straight to a file? I don't want the messages in the engine at all - just receive and dump. Has anyone done this before and have code you're willing to share?

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi All! Wanted to share a recent video we released, for those of you who may be getting started with InterSystems HealthShare Health Connect Cloud. This video walks through all the management tasks you can complete via the InterSystems Cloud Services Portal that you use with Health Connect Cloud. Feel free to reach out if you have questions!

Welcome, dear members of the community!

In this article we are going to demonstrate the great potential that IRIS/HealthConnect makes available to all its users with the use of Embedded Python and we are going to do it by developing a small production that will allow us to recognize and identify the faces present in a JPG file from some images that we will use as a reference.

Project configuration:

I'm working with a client who has InterSystems in his hospital to the management of patients and nurses. Now he want to develop a web app which can schedule nurse sift. Is there any way I can authenticate the user from his hospital InterSystems and get data from the system when ever the user login through the web app.

contains important system processes.
* Please refer to the attachment for how to check important system processes that should be monitored.

[IRISservice.exe]

This is the process for handling IRIS instances via services.
When this process ends, it does not directly affect the IRIS instance itself, but stopping IRIS (stopping the service) is no longer possible.

EHR (Electronic Health Record) systems are modeled in a proprietary format/structure and are not based on market models such as FHIR or HL7. Some of these systems can interoperate data in a proprietary format for FHIR and other market models, but others can not. InterSystems has two platforms that can interoperate proprietary formats for market ones: InterSystems HealthShare Connect and InterSystems IRIS for Health. The transformation functionality (DTL - Data Transformation Language) of these platforms can receive data in any format, structure, or communication channel (CSV, JSON, XML, and

Hello All, 

I'm trying to sign some custom JWT with x.509 certs but running into a problem with the signed JWT containing some information I need in the JOSE header.

Is there a way to get the "X5C:[]" header included in the signed JTW? IS this as easy as setting something like the following

Set JOSE("x5c") = "public key"

Thanks

John

Hi all,

I am trying to start the production after creating the business components in code, but I don't seem to be able to do so

Hi Community,

Watch this video to learn how the upcoming Healthcare Action Engine will combine event detection, complex logic, and a notification framework to improve synchronous and asynchronous notifications:

It is clear how to get the request header value with a specific name:

Class My.RestController Extends %CSP.REST
{

ClassMethod processRequest() As %Status
{
    #dim request as %CSP.Request 
    set request = %request
    set h = ##class(%REST.Impl).%GetHeader("...")
    ...    
    return $$$OK
}

But I can't figure out how to enumerate ALL the request headers (and also get all values).

Let's say you have Python including variable-length arguments methods. How can you call it from ObjectScript? 

deftest1(*args):return sum(args)
  
deftest2(**kwargs):
  a1 = kwargs.get("a1",None)
  a2 = kwargs.get("a2",None)
  return a1+a2

You can call this "a.py" from ObjectScript as below.  For **kwargs argument, create Dynamic Object in ObjectScript and put it into methods with <variablename>... (3 dots) format. 

set a=##class(%SYS.Python).Import("a")
    write a.test1(1,2,3)   ;; 6set req={}
    set req.a1=10set req.a2=20write a.test2(req...)   ;; 30

InterSystems has corrected a defect that can cause corruption of databases and journal files on AIX systems with IBM POWER8 or later POWER processors. This defect can be triggered only when database or journal encryption is in use.

 To trigger this defect, the following conditions are required:

• The environment uses database or journal encryption
• The environment also uses data-element encryption
• An encryption key used for data-element encryption has been deactivated

Hello InterSystems HL7 Community,

InterSystems Certification is developing a certification exam for InterSystems HL7 interface specialists and, if you match the exam candidate description given below, we would like you to beta test the exam. The dates the exam will be available for beta testing are March 28 - April 30, 2023. Interested beta testers should sign up now by emailing certification@intersystems.com (see below for more details). 

A common need for our customers is to configure both HealthShare HealthConnect and IRIS in high availability mode.

It's common for other integration engines on the market to be advertised as having "high availability" configurations, but that's not really true. In general, these solutions work with external databases and therefore, if these are not configured in high availability, when a database crash occurs or the connection to it is lost, the entire integration tool it becomes unusable.

I am trying to finish build for moving to IRIS HealthShare Health Connect 2022.1 from HealthShare Health Connect 2018.1.3. I am currently using Delegated Authentication using an AD group to match up to the Role in IRIS. The Role has access to everything but the HS Resources because we don't really use the HS Resources for anything. We are mainly using IRIS for the Interoperability Engine. 

I'm always on the lookout for tools that make the development and testing of my interfaces more efficient. A couple of years ago I came across HL7 Spy, from Inner Harbour Software. It quickly became my go-to tool for running message comparison reports for interface engine migrations, message statistics gathering, and troubleshooting message receipt and delivery. It also offered enhanced functionality for things like fetching messages via sftp that other tools don't provide.

I've recently been working with HL7 Spy's author, Jon Reis, to enable support for fetching messages directly from the Ensemble message store. Its SQL Loader feature now has native Caché/IRIS support, and I've contributed a small server-side class to support the extraction of messages using it.

InterSystems is pleased to announce the 2023.1 release of InterSystems IRIS Data Platform, InterSystems IRIS for Health, HealthShare Health Connect, and InterSystems IRIS Studio are now Generally Available (GA).

2023.1 is an Extended Maintenance (EM) release. Many updates and enhancements have been added in 2023.1.

Overview

Cross-Skilling from IRIS objectScript to Python it becomes clear there are some fascinating differences in syntax.

One of these areas was how Python returns Tuples from a method with automatic unpacking.

Effectively this presents as a method that returns multiple values. What an awesome invention :)

out1, out2 = some_function(in1, in2)

ObjectScript has an alternative approach with ByRef and Output parameters.

Do ##class(some_class).SomeMethod(.inAndOut1, in2, .out2)

Where:

• inAndOut1 is ByRef
• out2 is Output

The leading dot (".") in front of the variable name passes ByRef and for Output.

Hi all,

I'm trying to use LOAD DATA to insert 11k (11,377) rows of data. LOAD BULK DATA is not available for the version of IRIS I am using.

After calling LOAD DATA it says only 5,500 rows has been inserted. The LOAD DATA docs says any error rows are skipped and a count of skipped rows can be found in %SQL_Diag.Result however there are no results here. There are no errors in the xDBC error log either.

Why have over half the rows been skipped?

Hello,

I have Iris4Health community version (using for some development) running in a docker container and trying to enable TLS/SSL/HTTPS in the container. I have created the SSL cert chain (root ca/web site cert) via open SSL have the http.conf and http-local.conf file loaded on a durable volume. I have  also loaded the root CA in the trusted root cert store on the device that is connecting.

After inspecting the logs it looks like apache has loaded the certs and is listening on the correct port, but I am unable to connect to the mgmt portal via SSL.

In this article, we will introduce how to deal with the situation: "I accidentally deleted a global!"

Backup files and journals are used to recover specific globals that have been accidentally deleted. Restoration is performed by specifying conditions and restoring journal records using the ^ZJRNFILT utility. In this way, you can apply a point-in-time backup of the database up to and including deleting a specific global for journal records that contain deletions. For more information on the ^ZJRNFILT utility, please refer to the document below:

How to get the software

In our previous article we saw how to capture DICOM type files located in a folder in our server and how we could send them to a PACS software (in our case the ORTHANC open source solution) for storage and consultation. Well, in this article we are going to deal with the opposite movement.

In our example, we are going to configure our IRIS for Health production to receive images sent from our PACS via TCP/IP. To do this, we must include a Business Service of the standard EnsLib.DICOM.Service.TCP class that will allow us to configure receptions. Let's take a look to the configuration:
