Well after a few hours today I couldn't get this to work because I
couldn't load the wonderful file you created. For whatever reason I
couldn't get the HFS device to write to the file system (standard ext3
sitting on a RAID 10 system of new SATA disk drives). I did learn more
about the whole w/r and I/O subsystems and how they relate to the
underlying OS with VistA- so at least that was helpful.
I made sure the default HFS file in the kernel site parameter file matched
that of the user running GTM - still no go. I also discovered the VAFC
HFS option
NUMBER: 9347 NAME: VAFC HFS SETUP
MENU TEXT: HFS Device Setup TYPE: run routine
CREATOR: SCHLEHUBER,CAMERON
DESCRIPTION: This option is used to set up the PARAMETER DEFINITION
(#8989.51) and PARAMETERS (#8989.5) files to read, write, and delete reports
to a Host File Server (HFS) file. In the setup, the directory NAME (#.01)
field should contain a directory location that is wide open (read, write,
edit, and delete) to all. If these files are not set up, the inbound requests
will default to the working Broker Server directory which may or may not have
enough privileges to allow a remote system to pull the necessary information.
Please check to see that your directory has the appropriate privileges.
VMS example code to check privileges:
A2$dir aij$:[000000]tcp$spool.dir /own/prot
Directory AIJ$:[000000]
TCP$SPOOL.DIR;1 [SYSTEM] (RWED,RWED,RWED,RWED)
ROUTINE: CREATE^VAFCHFS UPPERCASE MENU TEXT: HFS DEVICE SETUP
Using this didn't change things.
Now the problem could have been that the standard GTM-UNIX-HFS device file was
not present in this last GTM release, and I am not sure if just creating one,
or using
the included "HFS" device will do. I am familiar with the direct disk access
devices
under Linux and creating them with mknod, but I am not sure if this is the same
or
will work with FileMan's direct editing of the device file.
I think I will just hold off for now and resume with this again after a bit of
rest.
I just wonder if anyone else has installed the FOIAVistA20060615 SemiVivA and
found
the same absent GTM-UNIX-HFS device from the choice list. I will just
re-install and try
again and keep a "script"/screen log of all my actions for review.
Here are the GTM devices that I did find.
