go to post Erik Hemdal · Sep 9, 2020 Since you are working on Windows, review the advice here: https://community.intersystems.com/post/using-intersystems-iris-containers-docker-windows If you are seriously stuck, you might consider contacting the WRC for help. Understanding the context and your overall goal can be important in solving troubles like this -- and also preventing other troubles that you might encounter. Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · Aug 6, 2020 Muni, This can be difficult and the details of what the data is and how it was killed are very important. You may be able to accomplish what you need via ^ZJRNFILT as Dmitry mentioned. But that requires you to find where the KILL is in the journal files, and determine how to filter out the KILL without filtering other updates that are required. Commonly this requires replaying ALL journals from the time of the event forward, to avoid stale data replacing current data. So the longer you wait, the more journals you have to replay. If the global contains information that has not changed in a long time, then that stable data is probably not in the journal files anymore. You would need to restore from a backup in that case. Erik

go to post Erik Hemdal · Jul 8, 2020 You can get good performance on any platform. The real keys to performance are how you specify and configure the hardware and software for the kind of workload you will run. I share Robert Cemper's preference for Linux or UNIX, but a good Windows administrator can make a Windows server run very well. Have you been in contact with your InterSystems account team? They can be a good source of information in the context of what your application needs are. Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · May 27, 2020 Eric, your best bet is to investigate at operating-system level; a dead job means it's no longer around as far as can be detected within Ensemble. As to what to check, this depends very much on the specific OS platform you're running; different ones have different tools. For Linux, try looking in /var/log/messages. For Windows, the Event Viewer is where to go. And there may be useful information in the Caché cconsole.log. The WRC can help you with getting to the bottom of problems like these because there are many reasons why a job might die unexpectedly. Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · May 25, 2020 I would start by confirming your current Caché locale and the configured NLS defaults for differences (In the management portal: Home > System Administration > Configuration > National Language Settings > Configured Defaults). If you are stuck, consider reaching out to the WRC for assistance.
go to post Erik Hemdal · May 7, 2020 Ken, Are you using Docker for Windows? I don't recommend it if you have access to a Linux system or Linux VM. There are many frustrating limitations with it. You can try to start your container without the --detach flag to see more about what is happening at container startup. If everything seems right, but you still have a problem, try reaching out to the WRC for help. Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · May 7, 2020 Quoting Robert But I'm already working on suggestion #2. Much better approach! I think you'll be much more successful that way. Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · May 7, 2020 Robert, although we only support containers on Linux, we have some information concerning Docker for Windows since many people find themselves in just this situation. https://community.intersystems.com/post/using-intersystems-iris-containers-docker-windows For your Durable %SYS directory, try a named volume instead of a bind mount (use docker volume create ...). Thanks for your post and for all your contributions in the DC. Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · May 7, 2020 There are many tools available for backup-and-restore. InterSystems publishes some helpful information in the Caché Data Integrity Guide (https://cedocs.intersystems.com/latest/csp/docbook/DocBook.UI.Page.cls?KEY=GCDI_backup). If you are a supported customer, your sales engineer can be a good resource, and the WRC is always available to help you solve problems. Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · May 6, 2020 That behavior is intended, as only the emergency user is able to start and stop the instance in emergency mode. The prompt for the EmergencyId and password confirms this. Since the original poster mentions journal restore, I too wonder about the use case. If this is related to an emergency situation, reaching out to the WRC may be appropriate. Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · Mar 26, 2020 Daniel, if you try the audit log, turn on %System/%Login/%LoginFailure %System/%Security/%Protect events and try to login again. If these don't give you the path forward, reach out to the WRC for help. Remember to turn off these events when you're done, especially if you are on a busy system. Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · Mar 26, 2020 Sylvie, you didn't specify the exact version you are using; in v2016.1.1 and later, the limit of 999 journal files per day was removed. If you are creating a lot of journal activity, and the 999 limit applies to you, you can also increase the size of each journal file so fewer are created each day. As Eduard posted, testing your workload is the way to determine the journal space you need.
go to post Erik Hemdal · Mar 19, 2020 Depending on your version of Windows, there might be a Windows Telnet service, which you would want to disable using Windows tools.
go to post Erik Hemdal · Jan 23, 2019 Hi Alexi,Look at invoking $System.Mirror.GetMemberStatus(). This returns a $List, so you might prefer to craft a routine to run this method and examine the results of the method.From the Caché bin directory, running 'ccontrol help' will give you assistance for invoking this from a batch script.If you get stuck, consider the WRC for help.Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · Jan 8, 2019 Good catch. SES credentials are not the same as IAM credentials and have to be set up separately. But once you get SES set up and properly authorized, I've found it very capable and, well, simple!
go to post Erik Hemdal · Dec 28, 2018 Eric, consider contacting the InterSystems WRC if you have not found and resolved the issue so a support advisor can help you.
go to post Erik Hemdal · Oct 10, 2018 Farhan,It's certainly possible to create a user-defined audit event and add audit events from your application code. What's the purpose of tracking patient IDs?Audit events are stored in the CACHEAUDIT database and by default are purged after a set number of days. So using the audit log to track patient IDs might not be the right solution. It all depends on what your ultimate goal for tracking is. You might want to contact the WRC or your account team for more-specific help.Erik
go to post Erik Hemdal · Sep 24, 2018 Joyce, can you confirm the Docker version and the OS you are running on?Is the user issuing the docker run command a member of the docker group at operating system level?Thanks! Erik
