Hi everyone!

If you are working with IRIS 2021+ and you remove all of the built in entries for External Language Servers, there is an unexpected consequence that may prevent you from running an installer to upgrade your version of IRIS. This does appear to be a bug which has been raised with WRC, however there are some people that may have recently removed these settings and then will soon be upgrading their environment and could face this same issue.

Specifically, the removal of all the External Language Server entries will also remove the "[Gateways]" heading in the iris.cpf file, and this

I'm using %XML.Reader  to open an XML file and use it's correlate method to try and convert it to a class.

Hi guys, I defined a subclass to %CSP.Login and assigned csp/sys login page to this subclass:

But did not work, I get this error:

And more, the default %CSP.Login continues to be called to login when the user not logged yet
So, how can I do to replace the default %CSP.Login by my subclass?

One of the reasons why I love Cache and Iris is that not only you can do anything you can imagine, also you can do it in a lot of different ways!!.

Imagine that you have an integration running with IRIS connected by ODBC you probably only run SQL queries but you can also create stored procedures and inside write the code to do everything you can imagine.

I'm going to give you some examples but the limit is your imagination!!

You might wonder, wait!! I don't know how to create a store procedure in IRIS. But this it's not true, you know how to create them but you don't know yet!.

Hi folks!

Lately (maybe last 2-3 years) I develop with IRIS exclusively in docker - so iris instance I use for compiling and running IRIS apps is local.

And most every time I enter password for management portal and web-apps. The same password every time. Sounds familiar?

Is there an easy way to have a parameter in docker build  for a "dev-mode" that will not ask me a password?

Is there a command that will loop through the flat files of a given Linux/Unix folder?  I can write the code to open and read each file. But the file names are unknown. I am looking for a way to access each file given a named Linux folder. The files have differing structures so a record map will not work.

Thank you for reading and thank you even more for answering!

Hey Community,

Tired of entering login-password during the docker build with your InterSystems IRIS every time?

There is a handy way to turn it on and off – use the passwordless zpm module.

Watch this video to explore how to use the passwordless ipm module to turn on and off entering login-password during docker build with your InterSystems IRIS:

I have experienced that my iris server is gone due to upgrading the docker version when I have built IRIS server on docker container.

Based on this experience, I'd like to show you how to make a backup for the IRIS server before upgrading platform or docker, and the procedure for rebuilding the IRIS in a new environment.

###IRIS server backup procedure

When you have finished building for the IRIS server, you need to make a backup.

I recommend you that you make a backup before upgrading if you have classes,routines and globals that you want to take over when you rebuild your environment.

When I run my IRIS in a Docker Container I know the host an know the mapped ports
so access is no problem.

BUT: is it possible from my IRIS
- inside a Container
- 'inside' Docker
to find the actual IP address of the Host?
This may sound strange, but for error tracking, it could be quite important.

I am looking into creating a ZSTOP as you probably have seen from my previous posts, is there a way to capture the type of shutdown that occurred? So say if there was an unknown hardware failure (forced), vs a user shutdown? Mainly looking for user or system shutdown when we force another destination to become the primary in the mirror. So if a user shutdown the production to do.,... Task A, Task B etc..

Thanks

🐞🐛▶ There is a helpful tool which allows us to debug code visually with different colours.

I found a package on OEX for a Sharding Demo
If Sharding is NOT included in the Community License
I can not use the Community Distribution but require a different one.
And have to add ZPM manually. 

To prepare a migration to IRIS I use Docker images.
The (aged) application is built around Caché Terminal
And on Windows,  IRIS uses the same ctelnetd.exe as Caché.

In my Docker installation, Telnet Settings are just grayed out in SMP.
and my Terminal can't 'connect.
Port mapping is OK and verified with TCP

Working from the console in Docker  with the whole set of ESC and
screen formatting is not acceptable.
We tried WebTerminal but there is just no Partition behind as in Terminal.

How can I switch on Telnet support in the Docker image?
 

Hello,

I want to generate and return an http response based on the input of a http GET request. For my first steps I used an EnsLib.Http.GenericService, which uses an EnsLib.HTTP.InboundAdapter to receive requests like http://[my server]:[my-port]/some-path?ID=12345678.

On the inbound side I receive a EnsLib.HTTP.GenericMessage Object which contains the parameters and some other useful information that I can work with. What I would like to do now is to create a simple HTML page, which contains some Information specific for the given parameter values. All my different attempts to return somet

Hi all,

When I run the ^SystemPerformance utility to collect performance data about my IRIS instance (community), it manages to collect all sorts of data except for data related to ^perfmon. I am using %SYS to run the utility which should have all privilages, not sure what's meant by the below error message

Command failed to run.
Error response from 'logman' command:

Released with no formal announcement in IRIS preview release 2019.4 is the /api/monitor service exposing IRIS metrics in Prometheus format. Big news for anyone wanting to use IRIS metrics as part of their monitoring and alerting solution. The API is a component of the new IRIS System Alerting and Monitoring (SAM) solution that will be released in an upcoming version of IRIS.

However, you do not have to wait for SAM to start planning and trialling this API to monitor your IRIS instances. In future posts, I will dig deeper into the metrics available and what they mean and provide example intera

Introduction

This article is intended to be a simple tutorial on how to create ODBC connections and working with them, since I found starting with them a little bit confused, but I had amazing people to take my hand and walk me through it, and I think everyone deserves that kind of help too.
I'm going to divide each little part in sections, so feel free to jump to the one you feel the need to, although I recommend reading everything.
I'm going to use the sample data created in a previous article, Quick sample database tutorial: Samples.PersistentData, with the properties Name and Age.

InterSystems is pleased to announce the 2022.3 release of InterSystems IRIS Data Platform, InterSystems IRIS for Health, HealthShare Health Connect, and InterSystems IRIS Studio are now Generally Available (GA).

2022.3 is a Continuous Delivery (CD) release. Many updates and enhancements have been added in 2022.3, in SQL management, cloud integration, Kafka and JMS adapters, the SQL Loader, and other areas. The new FHIR SQL Builder and enhancements to Columnar Storage are included, but both are still experimental features (not for production, with an active Early Access Program in place).  

I use the following query to get a list of all classes : 

select * from %Dictionary.ClassDefinition 
whereSystem=0and Hidden=0 

It works, but AFAIK it return all classes from all namespaces, including the ones defined in %SYS (usually classes they starts with % like %CSP).

I would like to get only classes of current namespace. I have checked all the columns returned by the query and none allow to filter on a given namespace.

The solution I am looking for does not need to be a query, the query I posted above is called from code.

I am working on setting up our Failover techniques as we move to a Mirror Environment with a Arbiter, 2 Failover Nodes, and a Async (DR) Node. There are some system commands that I would like to call when the Mirror moves, and I am working on a ZMIRROR routine for that, but I also wanted to create an additional step if we wanted to manually shutdown and for the Mirror to move. So I was looking at using ZSTOP to call a couple of different items while shutting down, while the documentation has an example a couple of questions come to mind about using ZSTOP.

Foreword

InterSystems IRIS versions 2022.2 and newer feature a redesigned functionality for JSON web tokens (JWTs). Once housed under the %OAuth2 class package, the JWT class, along with other JSON web classes (JWCs), now live under %Net.JSON. This migration occured in order to modularize the JWCs. Before, they were closely intertwined with the implementation for the OAuth 2.0 framework. Now, they can be maintained and used separately from OAuth2.

Note: For backwards compatibility, the classes still exist under %OAuth2 package, but the codebase now uses %Net.JSON.
