[U2] PickWiki

2009-01-23 Thread Tony G
I'm trying to breathe some life into the wiki sites available to
this community.  Please have a look at my recent blog on the
topic.  It introduces the concept of a wiki for those unfamiliar,
and leads to how we can make use of existing resources and how
people can use wiki for their own purposes:
nospamNebula-RnD.com/blog/tech/mv/2009/01/wiki1.html

There you will also find a comment with a link to a discussion on
this topic in comp.databases.pick.  Discussion here is welcome as
well.

I tried to contact Rex Gozar and Ian McGowan with no success so
far.  It would be nice to coordinate with them on some of this.
As mentioned elsewhere, I'm not trying to centralize content to
PickWiki but encouraging development of that resource And others,
including the U2UG Wiki which I believe is hosted by Brian Leach.

Comments, suggestions, and of course contributions are all
welcome.

Thanks for your time.

RE: [U2] Looking for advice on upgrading from Unidata 6.0 to Unid ata 7.1 o n HP9000 HPUX 11

2009-01-23 Thread Lunt, Bruce
I have another question that is more generic: Can we upgrade one box to 7.1
and NFS mount a file that is on the 6.0 box and still read and write the
data? Or is there something about the upgrade that changes the underlying
file?

This would allow us to begin testing without having to perform a full
restore of the data.

Thanks,
Bruce

Subject: [U2] Looking for advice on upgrading from Unidata 6.0 to Unidata
7.1 o n HP9000 HPUX 11

Hi All,

 

We are finally going to upgrade from 6.0 to 7.1 - so that we can use the
SOAP to call out to the web - and I was looking for any sites that have
experienced this upgrade already. 

 

We are using SB+ but other than that we do not do too much that is too
exotic or fancy.

 

Any helpful advice would be greatly appreciated!

 

Thanks in advance,

Bruce Lunt

So long as you don't care about locking!

you cannot use NFS mounts to access UniData files on another box that are
being accessed locally without risking file corruption.
period.
no matter that the releases.
The reason is that record locking and group locking (which maintains the
integrity of data within a group in a hashed file independent of 'logical'
record locks) is maintained in shared memory (or Windows memory mapped
files) that are local to each system.

You CAN use NFA to safely read/write UniData files on another system
running UniData.

Locking should not be a problem. This will be to a test account that nobody
else is using.
