Robert,

From your vantage point as VOE technical lead, could you paraphrase the code (as narrative pseudocode) which would enable or disable VOE from running on single user ("free license) Cache. Nancy describes this code " the VAs license checking routines" which can be changed "to function properly with the single user version"

You describe the same code (presumably in regions of ZU and ZOSV) as changes which would be a "bypass of license requirements"

The corollary to my question would be:
what code has VOE intentionally included to track its understanding of the Cache license given the possiblity of single license users interested in test/demo uses? Your paraphrase will help me undestand this if you are willing to provide it ... and I have a few related questions:

Have you considered adding a popup warning/howto in VOE to encourage *informed* test use? Maybe even include a global for a testing counter report and controls as a part of the new Startup Menu? Where is a well linked web document describing the testing option for those who might interested?
Thanks for adding to the discussion,
RustyMaynard

controlling the license tracking issued by Intersytems, I don't consider
that a valid option.  Which is I why I made the comment that it won't
work with the free version.  If anyone chooses to bypass license
requirements to make it work it is their choice.

With some minor changes in the code, it should run just fine, and the
changes are comparable to those made in the instructions on Hardhats
early on in the instructions.  It involves correcting the Box:Volume
pair name and fixing the VAs license checking routines to function
properly with the single user version.

Sorry I wasn't more specific, yes VOE will run on the free version of Cache (Cacheweb), but the CPRS GUI will not function. Since the CPRS GUI is what everyone wants to test, then for all practical purposes VOE will not function correctly. The terminal capability will function and therefore the roll and scroll side will work. A great deal of the functionality that VOE incorporates, such as templates and


reminders, are more GUI based so looking at the software without the GUI won't show many enhancements.

We have been told that if you want to test the VOE software, Intersystems will likely produce a 5 user version that will help you see the strengths of the software. Hope this is a better explanation than before.

Unimaginable?  No.

A single user license is not going to get you full functionality, however I've run FOIA VistA on the free license, and VistA Office should work about the same. I didn't have much trouble, but then I didn't try to do much beyond a little development and testing.

If you just want one user to get in and play around, you can probably get by with the free license. I think telnet will only work on the loopback address. I believe the main issue will be how many processes


you'll be able to start.

I think it's a good idea to contact the vendor. Ask them for a free license that will run it. They will probably give you one.

That seems unimaginable! In order to test the waters, you have to contact a vendor?

I know everyone here is shooting for vendor neutrality but I would like to take a small journey down the "implementing VOE" path.

Let's pretend that I have a third-world country (or a friend named Bob) that I would like to help. In the past, I could point them over to (or assist in) setting up Cache/GTM on the server and CPRS on the

client.

No money down and we can get our feet wet.

If I can't use Cache single-user demo, is there a small workgroup edition or something simple to purchase? The reason why I say

'simple'

is because I can't find a single "buy now" or "price list" at intersystems.com. I'm sure I have to call a salesman but when I visit


Microsoft at http://www.microsoft.com/sql/default.mspx, the "How to

Buy"

link is second down on the left. At Oracle, the Store link is at the top. Did I miss something? Shouldn't it be this easy to get the technology into place?

On that note, has GTM been tested with VOE?

This is not an open-source vs free vs commercial argument. My point is that we should ensure that VistA is accessible to all those

interested.

My question is - how do I install VOE?

I know VOE isn't available yet - this is in advance of the release.
What can this community can do to assist in making it easily

accessible?

/David.

Cacheweb is a single license version of Cache, VistaOffice (VOE) will not work with this version.

Subject: [Hardhats-members] last value in Y from GETENV

I have configuration questions that will require examples from VistaOffice.
Once a configuration of some flavor of Vista is OK for tinkering with,


I don't linger on issues like the box aka machine aka node (in some texts). But I am a little obsessed with where the last piece of the Y string comes from after it has been set in that famous reference exercise:
  D GETENV^%ZOSV
  W Y

Here is output from a new install of VistaOffice beta:
  EHR>D GETENV^%ZOSV W !,Y

  EHR^EHR^HPLAP^EHR:CACHEWEB

Since I want the machine name for my laptop to remain "hplap" for other uses , This string Y should be "configured" to return:

   EHR^EHR^HPLAP^EHR:HPLAP

and this is supposed to be done (I thought) by editing the entry in Taskman Site Parameters. Conveniently, there is only one entry in the fresh install, but it's solitary entry name name is not "
EHR:CACHEWEB"
and it doesnt contain "EHR:CACHEWEB" as a field entry.

 So where is the last piece of Y ("CACHEWEB") coming from?

If I look in the code, I am *overwhelmed* with %1 defined by:
  %1=$ZU(86),%1=$S(%<3.1:$P(%1,"*",3),1:$P(%1,"*",2))

If I go to Taskman Site Parameters in Fileman here is what lives

there.

(I'll use Edit mode for Inquiring) because the verbose ?? help shows how the last piece has *nothing* to do with what is stored in this single entry for TaskSiteParam:

Select OPTION: ENTER OR EDIT FILE ENTRIES

INPUT TO WHAT FILE: TASKMAN SITE PARAMETERS// EDIT WHICH FIELD: ALL// Select TASKMAN SITE PARAMETERS BOX-VOLUME PAIR: ??
  EHR:CACHE

    You may enter a new TASKMAN SITE PARAMETERS, if you wish
The value for the current account is EHR:CACHEWEB     Your answer

should

be the  volume set name concatenated with ":"
       concatenated with the name of the CPU.
The value for the current process can be found by doing GETENV^%ZOSV
and   checking the fourth ^-piece of Y.  This allows the TaskMan
site parameters to be applied extremely precisely, depending both upon


which volume set and cpu which is affected.

Select TASKMAN SITE PARAMETERS BOX-VOLUME PAIR: `1 EHR:CACHE BOX-VOLUME
PAIR: EHR:CACHE//
RESERVED:
LOG TASKS?: NO//
DEFAULT TASK PRIORITY: 7//
TASK PARTITION SIZE: 100//
SUBMANAGER RETENTION TIME: 20//
TASKMAN JOB LIMIT: 100//
TASKMAN HANG BETWEEN NEW JOBS: 5//
MODE OF TASKMAN: GENERAL PROCESSOR//
VAX DSM ENVIROMENT FOR DCL:
OUT OF SERVICE: NO//
MIN SUBMANAGER CNT: 1// ^

Select TASKMAN SITE PARAMETERS BOX-VOLUME PAIR: ^ Select OPTION:

Maybe I am supposed to be asking where the value for "CPU" lives which has a context called "account" by whoever wrote the ??help. The help gives a contextual citation of this same value ...where does it

live?

Must it be edited wherever it lives?

But this is from Openvista docs:
"A machine is mainly something to hook onto some VA TaskMan configuration parameters. The terms machine, CPU, box, or node are commonly used interchangeably."

Thanks for help in the murky depths of Vista configuration
