I am currently running a docker image with Iris 2021.1 and I would like to install node js on to it. I have had a look at the instructions on the intersystems online learning portal and I must say its very confusing. Some of the documentation says that you can only install it on 2019. Other parts say that it doesn't matter and you can install it if you have a dev directory. I checked my dev directory and there it isn't there. Sadly this is very inconsistent. Does anyone know if it is possible to install on the above mentioned version of Iris ?

Hey Developers,

We're pleased to invite you to the upcoming "Backup. From Dusk till Dawn" webinar by InterSystems Russia on December 15 at 10:00 (UTC+3, Moscow time)!

When i use &sql(SELECT ......)  in Cache I can watch the generated code
In the generated .int code and see what is happening.
Just with my normal rights

Now in IRIS I have just 4 line calling some class %sqlcq.***
With enough rights i find there is no such class but the generated .int routine
%sqlcq.IRISAPP.xEZgUjdXCCgQdZQPpRdOye1Ci2ue.1
That holds the code that i had in my .int on Cache

Can i switch this back somehow ?

Good day,

I'm trying to get IRIS to run on a new MacBook with a Apple M1 Pro chip. Local installs did not run, so I switched to docker containers. When I execute following command "docker run --detach --publish 52773:52773 --volume /Users/joost/Docker/iris/data/dur:/dur --env ISC_DATA_DIRECTORY=/dur/iconfig --name iris21 --init store/intersystems/iris-community:2021.1.0.215.0" an image is pulled and a container is created but the IRIS instance does not run. The log gives me the following output:

Hello everybody,

after updating from 2018.2.1 to 2021.1 we observe a change in the behaviour of the Messagebank Enterprise Monitor.

In 2018.2.1, when clicking on a specific line inside the configured systems the system dashboard opened, giving insights about queue counts and error conditions.

In 2021.1. when doing the same thing, the login screen of the designated server instance shows up, but does not allow to login (any try, even with valid %All credentials results in a reload of the page). I even created a new user, remebering the password hash issue mentioned in https://docs.intersystem

Hey community, how are you all doing?

What if you could check if your REST application is susceptible to some vulnerability? What if you could check if any known attacks affect your application?

With these issues in mind, we've brought our sample application using the ZAP testing tool. A way to quickly, conveniently provide tools for developers to validate security issues in an accessible manner practically.

I need to store an equivalent of the SNN (Social Security number). I need it to be encrypted and I'll have to be able to search for it once stored.

For what I've seen my options are: 

- SHAHash from the %system.encryption library. Simple and easy to implement. My question is, might collisions be a problem? We are talking about a 10 millions entry.

- AES encryption. In this case I'd like to know if there is a standard way for key management in the InterSystems environment.

I can eventually get a certificate for this project to use other encryption function as well.

Open to suggestions.

Hi Dev Community,

I have a persistent Document class that has a FileName string property and another Question class that has an optional one-to-many relationship with Document.

I'm trying to add a SqlComputed property to the Question class (docFileName) where docFileName = Document.FileName if there is a related Document or an empty string if there isn't one. 

I'd prefer the property to be SqlComputed so that if Question.Document changes, Question.docFileName will automatically update.

Does anyone know the syntax for accessing the properties of a related object in the SqlComputeCode?

The InterSystems IRIS has a great audit system. It is responsible for auditing system events, but you can use it to audit your applications (great feature).

The audit system is based into event concept. The events can occur with IRIS or in an application. So, we have two type of events to the audit system:

1. System events: events occured into the InterSystems IRIS components (database, interoperability, analytics and core);

2. User events: event occured into user/business (your) applications, with the user event types created(mapped) by you in the Management Portal > System > Security Mana

Want a commercial grade FHIR® Implementation included in your micro service ecosystem and barely have enough time to fill out your Health plan elections?

Here is a quick way to invite the InterSystems® FHIR®Accelerator Service to your Kubernetes Microservice party for immediate use. The solution uses Nginx proxy ninja moves to get the job done. Though rustic and bound to create some technical arguments, I am pretty happy with the results until this community tells me otherwise, so FHIR® away as they say but it would be great if you heard me out first.

Is there any way (on a Window machine) to rename an installed instance?  I installed my instance as 20201 and now I've upgraded in place to 2020.4 and I would like to change the instance name to be 20204, but I'm not sure how/where/or-even-if-possible to rename the instance.

Am I out of luck, or is this possible?

Thanks

SAM - Hacks and Tips for set up and adding metrics from non-IRIS targets

SAM (System Altering and Monitoring) comes with as a 'batteries included' docker-compose container set that is ready to start monitoring IRIS instances with a default dashboard as soon as it starts up. The initial configuration is good to understand SAM functionality and start basic monitoring of your IRIS systems. However, out of the box, there are some setting s that you will need to change when you start to monitor many systems and collect a lot of metric data. To get more value out of SAM, you will also want to add me

I would like to demonstrate how you can create monitoring of Production with Node-RED, and get a dashboard like this.

Hi,

Is there way to set up an automated batch job in the Management Portal to execute an SQL query.  Also, how can the related view be exported.  I have executed the SQL queries and see the view and created files manually.   I could not find any related documentation on the batch processes, but I thought batch or automated jobs could be set up via the Management Portal.  Any information is appreciated...

Thanks

When looking at system performance and capacity planning I need to know what processors a server is running.

In ^SystemPerformance Linux systems report Intel processors explicitly, for example:

processor	: 0
vendor_id	: GenuineIntel
cpu family	: 6
model		: 79
model name	: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2673 v4 @ 2.30GHz
stepping	: 1
microcode	: 0xffffffff
cpu MHz	: 2294.685

Its pretty obvious this is a Broadwell E5-2673 v4 processor, and I can get the specifications and enough details to look at the SPECint rating and other information, for example:

Intel reference

Trying to create IRIS ODBC connection in new window 10 machine, but getting an error "TCP connect() timed out." 

In old server windows server 2012 - IRIS ODBC connection was already existed, working fine. if I create new/test with IRIS connection is fine.

Only issue in new server (windows 10), I am not sure why I am getting error. Can any one help.

I added Firewall outbound port, still it is not working.

Hi,

Is there a way to filter in a routine for a type of filtering column in Excel.  I can apply exclusion logic, but wondered if there was some type of method that accomplished a type of filter.

Thanks

Looking at my old articles recently. I saw an undeservedly forgotten program that can significantly increase the security of your system by not allowing the user to use old passwords when changing.

To meet the requirements of section 8.2.5 PCI DSS "Prohibit the use of old passwords", a small application has been implemented that will be launched by the system when a user tries to change a password and check if it was used before.

You can install the program from the terminal and from the management portal interface

Hi all, 
I'm using a snippet I found from Scott Roth to extract, decode, and save a PDF from a HL7 message and save it to a specified file path, but I'm running issues with the following error:
My approach was to a create a utility function accessible from a DTL like this:

If a have a string " Happy new year   " and I want to trim (remove blank spaces from the begin and the end, not other places into the string), what is the object script function to get "Happy new year"?

Hi, Community!

Open Exchange (OEX) is getting more and more popular and more and more developers consider publishing their apps in the public package managerregistry.

This is really great!

So the topic of thoughtful naming convention is getting more important and even critical.  Let's discuss?

I recently published the "appmsw-docbook" module for deploying the solution not by individual programs, but by the entire database. This solution allows you to deploy a project without source codes.

Having received feedback, I decided to improve it significantly. Replaced zip archive with tgz, which will allow not using external system-dependent archivers.

Implemented a method for preparing an archive of a database and its dependent web applications. And the deployment archive itself is assembled as a zpm module into which the utility for deploying the database is replicated. Several such arc
