[U2] Backing up UniData on HPUX
All The following question has just been posted on the new U2UG website and I thought it deserved cross posting to the list. I think a number of us would be interested in the replies. Thanks, Brian Original Post: I am the new SA for a Unidata implementation running on HPUX. Though I am not a Unidata person, I do know trying to back up any database by backing up the underlying filesystem is going to be disastrous when trying to restore it. I have looked through the Administering Unidata on UNIX and gleamed out that one is to used the dbpause and dbresume commands. I was wondering what real people/shops do to back up their environment? Where does one start when one wants to do the right thing? Thanks for any help and advice regarding this matter Ray --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Where does one start when one wants to do the right thing? Thanks for any help and advice regarding this matter HP-UX used to come with a filesystem called jfs built-in and an option called 'Online-JFS'. I believe that in recent years this HP re-engineered version of Veritas has been replaced with straight Veritas vxfs. Under Online-JFS and under vxfs with some add-on there was a feature which allowed the fast creation of snapshot images of mounted filesystems. The best backup solution I ever came up with for a client of mine on HP-UX with UniData was to initiate a dbpause (which takes a few seconds), create a snapshot of the live database filesystem (another 20-30 seconds), and then issue a dbresume (almost instant). This in under a minute, an image could be created against which an OS level backup could safely be run. Once the backup was complete, the snapshot was unmounted and effectively destroyed.

[U2] IBM UniObjects.Net
REPOSTED FOR NONMEMBER: Peter Wezenaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] A couple of questions: 1) Is Uniobjects.Net for .Net a paid product like Redback or is it free to those who have Universe installed. 2) If my universe machine is a unix machine, does that change the licensing model. I seem to remember at one point it came with the windows version of UV, but needed to pay if you ran Universe on a Unix machine. Any help on above would be greatly appreciated.

RE: [U2] Uniobjects.Net
Hi It depends. UniObjects is not an additional paid product like RedBack. However the latest version with UV 10.2 supports (optional) inbuilt connection pooling. If you want to take advantage of that you will need the new pooled connection licence.

[U2] Taking a Poll
All, I'm considering giving my Selling MultiValue to Upper Management presentation as a free webinar. I'd appreciate response (to [EMAIL PROTECTED], not to the list) with (A) would you attend, and (B) what scheduling would work for you - nights, weekends, midday, etc. I'll post summary feedback to the list on how many were interested and when. The presentation was originally developed for a session at International Spectrum in Long Beach, CA. It addresses the basic rules for positioning yourself where you can save and expand the use of MV in your place of business. While not primarily directed to consultants and third party software companies, it does touch on important points for them as well. If I don't see interest, I'll take the hint and roundfile the idea. If, however, it's of value, I'm more than happy to spend the time offering it. Charles Barouch ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) www.KeyAlly.com (718) 762-3884 x 1 P. O.

Re: Spam:RE: [U2] Daylight savings time change and SLEEP command
In message [EMAIL PROTECTED], Jerry [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes That is my preferred method. Build a script that is run at a specific time or time and day that kicks off a U2 process. Not necessarily starting a phantom but starting any regularly run process on UniVerse. If you restart your system you don't have to remember to restart separate phantoms, the cron starts automatically. I think you can do the same thing in Windows using the Windows scheduler but since I have never used U2 on Windows I could be wrong. We had a scheduler - in BASIC on UV - that simply slept for (I think) 5 mins, checked the time, and ran any jobs due. It was fired off by a command in the Windows scheduler - one of the options of which is to run jobs on boot (we needed to say 5 mins after boot to give UV time to start). Cheers, Wol -- Anthony W.

Re: Spam:[U2] Texas U2 Members listening?
I wonder if we have anything like this in the Missouri or the central states area. With a state the size of Texas you will probably have one heck of a job with people making a commitment having people from Houston to Amarillo, Texarkana to El Paso. A meeting would probably mean a plane ride and an overnight stay.

RE: Spam:[U2] Texas U2 Members listening?
Jerry, There used to be the St Louis user group, but I don't think it was extant when I arrived there in '95. We are calling this Texas Area MV User Group (TXAMUG, for now anyway) to leave the door open for anyone in states nearby who want to join with us. You are right about Texas being a bit large (you can drive from Dallas to Sioux Falls, SD faster than driving from El Paso to Texarkana). However, most of the towns we think we will be drawing members from are 3 to 5 hours from DFW. If we move our meetings to something slightly S. of Dallas/Fort Worth then the circle is even tighter. It may be a bit of driving for some, but we find folks in Texas are used to some driving. I think the most important factor will be to offer something in our meetings that makes the required effort a good bargain. One such discussion is blending MV with newer technologies - if we pick topics and spawn discussions along this line we are offering an intimate experience/personal development/business development that touches our daily tasks, and affects our future mutual survival. FWIW. BTW - Sunset Beach, Mo is not too far from DFW, given today's speed limit thru Oklahoma. 8-) -Baker -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jerry Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2007 2:07 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: Re: Spam:[U2] Texas U2 Members listening?

[U2] Limit Textfield length
Hi all - I have a MV field that is used for comments, so the user enters their text on line one and by pressing enter, they can continue entering on the 2nd line and so forth. Standard stuff. what I am wondering is if there is a way to limit enter in the field so that it doesn't allow them to continue typing and run off the screen. Maybe even automatically insert a carriage return when they get to the length limit. Anyone know of a way to do this?
