[U2] Backing up UniData on HPUX

2007-03-28 Thread Brian Leach
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

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.

HTH,

Ken

[U2] IBM UniObjects.Net

2007-03-28 Thread Moderator

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.

2007-03-28 Thread Brian Leach
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

2007-03-28 Thread Charles Barouch

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.

Re: Spam:RE: [U2] Daylight savings time change and SLEEP command

2007-03-28 Thread Anthony W. Youngman
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

Re: Spam:[U2] Texas U2 Members listening?

2007-03-28 Thread Jerry
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. How you going to do it.

At the recent International Spectrum MV conference in Long Beach a new
Texas Area Multi-value User Group was launched.  If you are located in
or around Texas we invite you to join by going to the yahoo group:

http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/texas_mug/

If you want to email me off-list I will send you a pre-approved
invitation link.

This is a private group, only members can post to it, view archives,
etc.  I would ask, therefore, that you give a few sentences or syllables
about yourself [your involvement in U2 or MV] so we can validate all our
members.  This is for the security of our membership.

Our first TXAMUG meeting is scheduled for June 28th, which will commence
quarterly meetings thereafter.

Our aims for TXAMUG:

-- Get face time with others who are using the MV database model to
share knowledge and experiences.

-- Provide a technical and advisory resource to 'mutually aid' one
another in our respective daily tasks.

-- Develop regional venues to disseminate knowledge and products for
the MV database.

-- Personally advance in our MV expertise through educational
presentations by TXAMUG Group members and other training providers.

-- Spread the news that the MV database model is not just surviving but
evolving into more interoperability and robustness, while retaining it's
'business-intuitive' structure.

Just for clarification, TXAMUG is intended to complement the role of the
U2 and CDP groups in the MV community, by providing periodic physical
meetings with some of the same friends you interact with on these worthy
technical forums.

RE: Spam:[U2] Texas U2 Members listening?

2007-03-28 Thread Baker Hughes
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-)

[U2] Limit Textfield length

2007-03-28 Thread Steve Long

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?

Thanks,

Steve
