Question Rich Taylor · Jun 27 Finding the Inode value for a file The SYS.Mirror CatchupDB() method requires a System File Number/Inode value as a parameter. I have not yet found a suitable internal method to get this value. Is anyone aware of a utility method that would do this? I do know I can get this value with a small amount of Python or by calling out to the OS. However I wanted to stick with pure Objectscript in this project if possible. Failing in this I will use embedded python to run the line or two of Python needed to get this value. Thank you for any hints #Mirroring #ObjectScript #InterSystems IRIS for Health 0 5 0 80
Question Rich Taylor · Mar 21, 2023 Logging FTP Business Service I am having an issue with a file not being deleted from the FTP server and returning an error to this effect. The file, however, was fully processed. This causes the file to process again. My question is I seem to recall a flag that can be set to enable more detailed tracing to be done on the FTP service/adapter. However, I have not been able to locate this. Does anyone recall such a logging setting or was I just dreaming? #Business Service #FTP #InterSystems IRIS for Health 0 0 0 275
Article Rich Taylor · Dec 28, 2018 2m read Docker-compose default network conflicts I recently had to diagnose a networking problem I was having when attached to our corporate network. I was seeing an unknown bridge network being defined that shared the same IP address space as the company network thus blocking access to company resources. This bridge network was separate from the Docker0 bridge network which the docker engine sets up. Docker was configured with a bip (bridge ip) address to prevent docker form using an address space that create a conflict. #Docker #Other 1 2 1 5.3K
Question Rich Taylor · May 9, 2018 How to move defined tasks from one Instance of Cache to another I am working with a client to try and export a set of tasks defined in the Task Manager from one system to another. I am not seeing any API for this. I can query this information in SQL. So I tried to use the Data Export Wizard from the System Management portal in the SQL window. Export was fine. Importing failed with a "can't insert into read only field" error. Looking at the class definition does not help since the implementation details are not visible.So how would one accomplish this? Export scheduled tasks from one system to another? #Deployment #System Administration #Caché 0 25 0 1.6K

Certain parts of this application remained Terminal based for which a unsigned Java applet was used to embedded this within the application.

Question Rich Taylor · Jan 9, 2017 Best way to Page Results for External SQL query When working with a large query executed though an ODBC connection what is the best way to allow the paging of the results at the client side. I have tried some methods using %VID and similar methods, but these really don't seem to work as the value returned is related to the ID of the data and not the position in the results set. What would be ideal is if the value seen in the management portal when you check of "Row Number" was available to external queries through ODBC. I have not seen a way to return this however. #Caché #ODBC #SQL 0 5 0 926

Question Rich Taylor · Feb 3, 2016 Creating separate thread in Cache Has anyone come up with a way to create a separate thread of processing that can achieve shared access to a set of objects created from the initials process?
