I'm not saying that this is in anyway "best practices," but I'm in a peculiar situation where I need to restrict users from starting a "retired" Ensemble Production in a namespace that's been renamed. It's still an "Ensemble-activated" namespace; we need to keep it available for Ensemble Message Viewer access ... fortunately, only for a little while.
It's a bit of a hack ...
Open the Production class in Studio and add the following classmethod:
I have a question about the Private Global Blocks when viewing a process's details. This number is growing while my process runs - is this due to variables, process-private-globals, or both?
For I=1:1:200 Set ^ABC(I)="" For I=1:1:200 Set ^XYZ(I)="" For I=1:1:100 Kill ^ABC(I)
2. create ZJRNFILT
ZJRNFILT(jid,dir,glo,type,restmode,addr,time) /*Filter*/ Set restmode=1 /*Return 1 for restore*/ If glo["^ABC",type="K" Set restmode=0 /*except if a kill on ^ABC*/ Quit ;
I need to copy a bunch of globals from some crufty old databases to spanking clean brand new ones. GBLOCKCOPY has this cool feature that lets you create a batch of global names to copy and save the list in a batch. You can then execute the batch and go take a nap.
I like naps.
I need to do this for a number of old-new database pairs, but it's the same global names every time. Is there a way to export the batch configuration created the first time and import it to another environment/namespace? These databases will be spread across multiple hosts.
So i'm having this problem with the task manager, the tasks simply stopped running. I had a problem with queued massages and trying to figure out what to do i'm afraid I may messed up something else, can someone help me ?
I have an above error when purging record map batches and was wondering if anyone out there has ever experienced this and if they have please any advice
Failed to purge body for header 9747192, BodyClassname='******.Batch':ERROR #5823: Cannot delete object, referenced by '*****.Record.%ParentBatch'
InterSystems Caché globals provide very convenient features for developers. But why are globals so fast and efficient?
Theory
Basically, the Caché database is a catalog having the same name as the database and containing the CACHE.DAT file. On Unix systems, the database can also be an ordinary disk partition.
I've seen a few password change posts, but I wasn't 100% sure it was the same process, so I am asking here. We periodically have to change the passwords for a few Cache user accounts across several servers. Is there a process/script to change these passwords without having to go into the web portal on each server? Thanks so much, and I apologize if this was covered in some of the other articles that I've run across. Just looking for the best method.
Sometimes global mapping of the same globals can be defined in different ways. E.g., I need to define it for 3 globals ^qAuditC, ^qAuditLog, ^qAuditLogC from the same database named APP-NOJOURN. Which approach should be better from the performance point of view?
1) qAudit* => APP-NOJOURN (one record in global mapping table) or
2) qAuditC => APP-NOJOURN qAuditLog => APP-NOJOURN qAuditLogC => APP-NOJOURN (three records in global mapping table)
InterSystems Data Platform includes utilities and tools for system monitoring and alerting, however System Administrators new to solutions built on the InterSystems Data Platform (a.k.a Caché) need to know where to start and what to configure.
This guide shows the path to a minimum monitoring and alerting solution using references from online documentation and developer community posts to show you how to enable and configure the following;
Caché Monitor: Scans the console log and sends emails alerts.
System Monitor: Monitors system status and resources, generating notifications (alerts and warnings) based on fixed parameters and also tracks overall system health.
Health Monitor: Samples key system and user-defined metrics and compares them to user-configurable parameters and established normal values, generating notifications when samples exceed applicable or learned thresholds.
History Monitor: Maintains a historical database of performance and system usage metrics.
pButtons: Operating system and Caché metrics collection scheduled daily.
Remember this guide is a minimum configuration, the included tools are flexible and extensible so more functionality is available when needed. This guide skips through the documentation to get you up and going. You will need to dive deeper into the documentation to get the most out of the monitoring tools, in the meantime, think of this as a set of cheat sheets to get up and running.
In this series of articles, I'd like to present and discuss several possible approaches toward software development with InterSystems technologies and GitLab. I will cover such topics as:
Git 101
Git flow (development process)
GitLab installation
GitLab Workflow
Continuous Delivery
GitLab installation and configuration
GitLab CI/CD
In the previous article, we covered Git basics, why a high-level understanding of Git concepts is important for modern software development, and how Git can be used to develop software. Still, our focus was on the implementation part of software development, but this part presents:
GitLab Workflow - a complete software life cycle process - from idea to user feedback
Continuous Delivery - software engineering approach in which teams produce software in short cycles, ensuring that the software can be reliably released at any time. It aims at building, testing, and releasing software faster and more frequently.
I am taking over a production system that had some HSLIB and other database routine and class files modified. However, I do not know what was modified .
I'm trying to follow the documentation, but I seem to end up in a circular reference, where the docs say "Login to TrakCare" to get access to the Layout Editor, with a link to "Logging Into TrakCare", and then that whole sections assumes that the account being used has been created, but doesn't seem to point to any means of actually creating the account in the first place.
Where is it described in the HealthShare Documentation, how to create a TrakCare login account?
Our development server is set up to automatically keep the .INT code of compiled classes and routines, but the live servers are set to not keep the .INT code.
I know how to set the system to keep this code ($SYSTEM.OBJ.SetQualifiers() ?) but what are the ramifications of keeping this code on the live servers? Is it just a space issue? I always thought it was to keep the code more private.
How we can reduce the size of cache.dat file? Even after deleting the globals of a particular database from management portal size of its cache.dat file is not reduced.
Can someone tell me if intersystems-ru/deepsee-sysmon-dashboards is developed for a specific version of Ensemble? Looks like it could be useful to my group but we aren't upgrading till later this year and we are on 2015.2.2.
We are currently using Ensemble on AIX. We are on 2015.2.2. If I install Field Test on a windows desktop, is it possible that I can import the Cache.dat from my AIX server, so I can do some Proof of Concept development?
InterSystems products (IRIS, Caché, Ensemble) already include a built-in Apache web server. But the built-in server is designed for the development and administration tasks and thus has certain limitations. Though you may find some useful workarounds for these limitations, the more common approach is to deploy a full-scale web server for your production environment. This article describes how to set up Apache to work with InterSystems products and how to provide HTTPS access. We will be using Ubuntu, but the configuration process is almost the same for all Linux distributions.
This article was written as an attempt to share the experience of installing the InterSystems Caché DBMS for production environment.
We all know that the development configuration of a DBMS is very different from real-life conditions.
As a rule, development is carried out in “hothouse conditions” with a bare minimum of security measures, but when we publish our project online, we must ensure its reliable and uninterrupted operation in a very aggressive environment.
Let's say you have about 100TB of data in multiple CACHE.DAT. The biggest one is about 30TB but mostly more than 1TB. You have limited time for maintenance during a day, and it is only a few hours at night. You have to check Integrity as much often as possible. And of course backup it.
Some people are lucky enough to have a totally separate environment to run production in.
