#InterSystems IRIS

Hi,

I tried to create what is know as a "class variable".  As far as I understand the only analogy to class variables would be the "class parameters".

I tried to use a class parameter but I cannot change its value at runtime.

Parameter STATUSES = {{}};

Property repr As %String;

Method %OnNew(repr) As %Status
{
    w ##class(Test...).#STATUSES
    w ..#STATUSES

    ...

}

When I get ..#STATUSES, it is a string like "5@%Library.DynamicObject". This is a string, not a pointer to an object.

I tried to define STATUSES as Parameter STATUSES  As CONFIGVALUE = {{}};  and change the value with  

d

Hi, Support Team

I´m working with Cache for many years, currently i have running version cache-2018.1.7.721.0-win_x64.exe

However we are facing some compatibility/requirements challenges, in that way i´m hereby request your support to provide next version/build of Cache 2018.1 (e.g cache-2018.1.9.xxx.x-win_x64.exe )

Nevertheless , I already downloaded IRIS for testing purpose if can also provide trial/limited licence for detail testing will be apreciated.

Thanks in advance for your attention.

Regards

Rajendra

On Windows, this cannot be changed, but on Unix-like platforms, it can be changed using the iris rename command.

iris rename instname(<current instance name>) newname(<new instane name>)

I am trying to track down a problem we saw this morning with our TEST environment. We had a momentary issue where InterSystems HealthShare Health Connect could not connect correctly to LDAP. When we tried to login and could not connect to LDAP, the system would Delete our users.

the Test LDAP function would return a "Can't contact LDAP server". I went through the Certificates, made sure they had the correct permissions and were not expired.

Hi,
Do you know the best way to convert a %Library.ListOfDataTypes instance to a $LIST format string?

Problems with Strings

I am accessing IRIS databases with JDBC (or ODBC) using Python. I want to fetch the data into a pandas dataframe to manipulate the data and create charts from it. I ran into a problem with string handling while using JDBC. This post is to help if anyone else has the same issues. Or, if there is an easier way to solve this, let me know in the comments!

I am using OSX, so I am unsure how unique my problem is. I am using Jupyter Notebooks, although the code would generally be the same if you used any other Python program or framework.

Hello, I need to use IRIS to connect to an MSSQL base.
It has to be done via ODBC, I can't use JDBC at this time by client option.

I am trying to use Microsoft Driver
libmsodbcsql-13.1.so.9.2

But I can't, my attempts result in:
Connection failed.
SQLState: () NativeError: [11001] Message:

I have done all DSN configuration, and my configuration is listed in SQL Gateway Connections. I know it's working, because when I run a test with isql I have the information that connects to the bank.

This is my IRIS and Server configuration:
IRIS for UNIX (Ubuntu Server LTS for x86-64) 2018.1.1 (Build 643U)

In this post, we'll discuss our project that leverages Pulumi and Docker Compose to automate the deployment of InterSystems WSGI applications on AWS. The focus is on simplicity and efficiency, using pre-built infrastructure templates for provisioning and scaling AWS resources.

Overview

This repository automates the deployment of a WSGI-based application using AWS infrastructure templates and Pulumi’s Python SDK. The infrastructure is provisioned with Pulumi's declarative approach, while Docker Compose handles application orchestration.

There's an easy new way to add certificate authority (CA) certificates to your SSL/TLS configurations on InterSystems IRIS 2019.1 (and 2018.1.2) on Windows and Mac.  You can ask IRIS to use the operating system's certificate store by entering:

%OSCertificateStore

in the field for "File containing Trusted Certificate Authority X.509 certificate(s)".   Here's an image of how to do this in the portal:

And here's a link to the documentation which describes this.  It's in the list of options under "File containing trusted Certificate Authority certificate(s)".

That's all you need to do!

⏯ Deployment Considerations for Your AI Solution @ Global Summit 2024

A customer recently asked if IRIS supported OpenTelemetry as they where seeking to measure the time that IRIS implemented SOAP Services take to complete.

We have an ObjectScript application that runs in Cache' and IRIS. Our typical installation involves a .zip file containing several files necessary for the installation and operation of the application. Steps are: expand the .zip file to a folder that will not be used by the application. Do ^%RI for the installation routines in the production namespace. Do the Installation routine. We have a customer that is trying to do a silent installation. He does not want to have to respond to any prompts on the installation. We do have a silent option for the Installation routine and that is working well.

When developing productions there are many places that we input endpoint information (IP/port) especially when there are dozens of operations going to the same environment. What later happens is that the IP changes and we have to then go into each operation and update the IP.

Is there a way to create a "global variable" for an endpoint, something like `$ehr_IP` and then use that and update it in a single place?
I'm aware of defaults, but I don't want a default as this is not a "default" but is the value to use in place of the variable.

Hello.

I have a business process with an "ASTM" class : 

Inside this process i have a business rule. Inside this rule i want to get a specific field inside the message :

So i will use the same logic for HL7 messages. Here is the "path" to the segment and the field : 

So i will use this inside the routing rule like i did for HL7 messages. 

i have tried MUCH prefix like "ASTM" "X12" "ESI.X12" ..... I only got errors like << PROPERTY DOES NOT EXIST >> 

Can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong ?

Thanks.

IRIS Health Monitor is part of System Monitor (see here).
The intention is to further process the captured sensor reading in order to identify the "health" of a system by checking the sensor reading values against pre-defined Base, Min and Max absolute values, and alert accordingly. Additionally,  instead of absolute values, you can create Charts (which can be different for different periods of a day), that contain a learned minimum and maximum value after a time spent by the system (at least 24 hours) analysing sensor readings.

The sensor readings included in Health Monitor are defined here.

What is Journaling?

Journaling is a critical IRIS feature and a part of what makes IRIS a reliable database. While journaling is fundamental to IRIS, there are nuances, so I wrote this article to summarize (more briefly than our documentation which has all the details) what you need to know. I realize the irony of saying the 27 minute read is brief.

Every modification to a journaled database (sets and kills) is recorded with its timestamp in a journal file. This runs in parallel with writes to the databases and the write image journal (WIJ) for redundancy.

Hi Developers!

Recently we launched InterSystems Package Manager - ZPM. And one of the intentions of the ZPM is to let you package your solution and submit into the ZPM registry to make its deployment as simple as "install your-package" command.

To do that you need to introduce module.xml file into your repository which describes what is your InterSystems IRIS package consists of.

This article describes different parts of module.xml and will help you to craft your own.

I will start from samples-objectscript package, which installs into IRIS the Sample ObjectScript application and could be installed with:

zpm: USER>install samples-objectscript

It is probably the simplest package ever and here is the module.xml which describes the package:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Export generator="Cache" version="25">
  <Document name="samples-objectscript.ZPM">
    <Module>
      <Name>samples-objectscript</Name>
      <Version>1.0.0</Version>
      <Packaging>module</Packaging>
      <SourcesRoot>src</SourcesRoot>
      <Resource Name="ObjectScript.PKG"/>
    </Module>
  </Document>
</Export>

Hello Community,

In this article, I will outline and illustrate the process of implementing ObjectScript within embedded Python. This discussion will also reference other articles related to embedded Python, as well as address questions that have been beneficial to my learning journey.

As you may know, the integration of Python features within IRIS has been possible for quite some time. This article will focus on how to seamlessly incorporate ObjectScript with embedded Python.

Essentially, embedded Python serves as an extension that allows for independent writing and execution.

During testing the added Multi-Namespace feature I met a challenge
that required intervention. This simple request created 1000 lines of output.

Hi there,
I'm discovering IRIS and I need to POC the solution, with a constraint: containerization.
I'm used to deploy my apps in a Swarm cluster, and all my bind volumes are written on a GlusterFS volume.
The problem here, when I start my stack, the first log is:
[WARN] ISC_DATA_DIRECTORY is located on a mount of type 'fuse.glusterfs' which is not supported, consider a named volume for '/iris_conf'
And of course the deployment fails.
Any idea? How can I provide my data on all my cluster nodes? I read this article: https://community.intersystems.

Hello every one, here in our company we are trying to develop a tool to help us in our "Code Review" that today is completely done for another developer.

s variable = "test"
d ..SomeMethod()
So in this cases I want to warn the original developer that the code has parts that need to change the "s" to "Set" and de "d" to

Hi there, I'm wondering if anyone has run into an issue with <FILEFULL> when building an image from the ISC image? Specifically what's happening in our build is we are pre-loading our codebase into the image to make deployments faster and setting up source control, etc. When loading our libraries however we get hit with a <FILEFULL>. The resource limits on docker are pretty beefy and when observing resources on both the machine and container level we don't hit any issues. Oddly, this only happens when using the ARM64 version. When using the AMD64 version of 2024.
