[U2] Reliability doesn't raise enough issues to keep the list busy

It is the problem with a reliable product there are not enough issues to keep 
the list busy.  If you had one of the competitor products there would be a ton 
of issues to deal with to keep multiple forums busy.   Funny how buggy software

[U2] Limitations of uvrestore

2011-05-02 Thread Gregor Scott
I have just finished some testing of uvbackup and uvrestore on AIX and Linux to 
see if there are areas to improve performance.
The results were interesting, and somewhat alarming - see 
http://gdoesu2.wordpress.com/2011/05/02/facts-about-uvbackup-and-uvrestore/ for 
details.

What I am interested in is:

a)  Do UV platforms other than AIX and Linux have similar issues with 
uvrestore?

b)  Does anyone use block sizes beyond 1mb for uvbackup and uvrestore?
If so, what size and what impact does it have on backup performance?

Thanks

Gregor

Re: [U2] Limitations of uvrestore

2011-05-02 Thread Hona, David
I don't know of anyone who actually relies upon uvbackup/restore for their 
backup/restore strategy.

Other than supposedly support online backups and checking file integrity - I 
would see it's relatively slow speed as another reason not to utilise it. Other 
DB vendors tools tend to suffer from similar such drawbacks as well...

The only other comment I'd make is that you don't mention of your AIX rmt 
device block size was set to automatic or not. This may potentially be the 
cause of some of your issues? 

Regards,
David

Re: [U2] Limitations of uvrestore

2011-05-02 Thread Boydell, Stuart
...Although, as the OP seems to be using it for transfer from AIX to Linux, 
it's almost the simplest way to have it do all the fnuxi-ing for you.
Another gotcha to look out for with AIX-Linux (bigendian-littleendian) 
transfers using uvbackup is that it doesn't properly restore files with 
triggers. You either have to drop them before you do the backup or meddle with 
the file header after restore.
Cheers. Stuart

 Funny how buggy software can look good, because there

I feel a need to stick a pin that balloon of hot air, even if I
happen to agree with it in large part, and present an equal but
opposite view. :)

Paraphrase:

It is the problem with a dying product there are not enough
creative thoughts to keep the list busy.  If you had one of the
competitor products there would be a ton of ideas to discuss to
keep multiple forums busy. Funny how great software can look bad,
because there are so few people to discuss all the wonderful ways
to use it.

Just trying to keep things real.

Re: [U2] [UV] Marking New Index as Built

2011-05-02 Thread rayw

Thinking back to Prime INFORMATION, that was the default behaviour.  You could 
have deferred updates pending and still have new transactions update the 
indexes.

But, then, in Prime INFORMATION BUILD.INDEX and UPDATE.INDEX were two separate 
commands, unlike the UniVerse implementation.

There's probably something you could tweak in the INDEX.MAP file to get this to 
work.  Unfortunately I am in an airport lounge (again!) and not carrying my 
UniVerse Internals training class notes.
