[U2] ODBC on UD 7.3
Due to the change in the locking within ODBC UD 7x on AIX I am looking for alternatives in access methods regarding SQL Tables that reside between the above mentioned, and a Unisys box. Triggers were also being utilized. The new locking (just migrated) has rendered this no longer a viable option. The functions that utilize these tables are order entry, so it is real-time banging away from numerous locations. I would like to know what methods others use to access remote non MV systems where data is shared. -- Debster --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

ok Task at hand -- install the c version of Taxware on AIX 5.3 Unidata 6.x and interact on a transactional or batch basis.

Re: [U2] Trigger behavior
The trigger is not ON a directory it is on a hash file where the trigger is also supposed to update a DIR file. Triggers cannot be on a directory in Unidata, but you are supposed to be able to effect a DIR type Considering that the problem only exists when coming in from the outside I suspect it has to do with Tuxedo from the other side Permissions? (but all other rights are fine on all Unidata files) ODBC can it be a buffer setting or something else? This is the first DIR type that the outside has access to so.. It DOES work successfully provided the person is not coming in from the outside.

[U2] How can I find the RIGHT IBM Contact?????
Ok I'm really pretty much fed up... I placed a call to IBM 3 WEEKS ago after inheriting a pile of papers shoved into a folder loosely describing the existing systems. I KNOW one needs an upgrade, for both AIX & Universe BUT...are they licensed for it? Is the media floating around the building? What upgrades are they eligible for? I KNOW maintenance was recently paid in Oct on at least one of the boxes... What was the infinite wisdom of NOT TYING all customer related items together??? (1 cust # for the hardware + 1 cust # for AIX + 1 cust # for Universe) x 2 = A Mess that requires more than 2 brain cells rubbed together to figure out. NOT ONE PERSON I CONTACTED CAN GIVE ME A CONCISE ANSWER!! Or even a smidgen of a clue as to where to turn...a close friend who just retired told me to call in a crash. I called support twice, first I was routed to a clueless sales rep who never returned a call...next support routed me to a sales rep whom I needed to call back who got an AIX person on the phone who --- believe meit was said... "U2?" To which I was forced to reply... In all the 20 years I have in this field I have observed time and time again that neither hardware sales, or underlying OS has a clue concerning the entire package. Its bad enough that rs/6000 people bicker with the As400 people and are clueless about what the other does. Its only the U2 people who have a clue about how the entire package goes together, the trickle down effect.. My only frustration is WHOM to contact within that realm...

Re: [U2]: Epicor
It all boils down to "Education" and teams working together. If the powers that be see that IT does not cooperate then you get left out of the picture only to complain that decisions were made for you. Smart CFO's don't want to shell out for more than they have to, and that includes having to replace all the labor in IT because no one has the skill set to support their purchase. That happens when you have not proven any value to the overall progress of the company. They want results and they want them fast as possible with as little interruption to the business flow. Savvy companies now recognize IT's value and no longer consider it simply as a "service" department for the company. That accurate data is priceless -- Debster -- Original message -- > Mostly true.

RE: [U2] [Ad] Universe/Unidata Programmer Needed - Denver
Well heck...this is the OTHER side of outsourcing... The market shrinks, the pool does not, lets watch the fish go wild over a smaller piece of bait.. If you think that is bad...how about a offer of 35.00 per hour contract rate from IBM Global Services for a Project Management Position implementing JD Edwards financials AND Manufacturing? If that ain't a humdinger...its worse than when Headhunters finally realized they could make money off consultants instead of insisting on Full Time.. But..in all seriousness Mark..(and sadly the rest was also) you also need to look at the market in a particular geographical area... -- Debster -- Original message -- > And this negative attitude serves what value, exactly? > > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Johnson > Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 2004 7:22 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [U2] [Ad] Universe/Unidata Programmer Needed - Denver > > All this and it probably pays $45K max. > - Original Message - > From: "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" > To: > Sent: Wednesday, November 10, 2004 7:07 PM > Subject: [U2] [Ad] Universe/Unidata Programmer Needed - Denver > > > > Small healthcare organization in Denver seeking a > > individual with strong Universe/Unidata background. > > This person will enhance and maintain existing > > statewide hospital discharge database.
