Re: [U2] Pick Hits

2010-11-05 Thread Peter Schellenbach

Hi Will -

I found a copy of the 1988 edition of Pick Hits. Send me your address 
and I'll send it to you, if you have not already acquired one. You 
can email your address to support at asent dot com.


Thanks,

Peter Schellenbach



In 1988 I believe, and then again in 1990 or so, Pick Systems  published a
book called Pick Hits which listed every vendor and what they  were...
vending.

[U2] GreenBar End-Of-Job Eject

2010-11-05 Thread Bill Brutzman
We recently did a fresh install of UV 10.3.6.

With the former version 10.1, when GreenBar print jobs ran, it would 
automatically eject a page at the end of the report when the job finished.

With UV 10.3.6, it no longer auto-ejects.  I want it to do the auto-eject so 
that I do not have to tweak two dozen programs.

It is a Printronix printer with an HP JetDirect print server.

Suggestions would be appreciated.

if it's running on *nix, you could modify the printer drivers 
in /usr/uv (ours are in /usr/uv/lpt.drivers)

example:
cat - | lp -d PR0

could be changed to:
(cat - ; echo ^L) | lp -d PR0

This would send a TOF after every job

[Ad] If you send your greenbar reports through Print Wizard, it will do 
that task automatically. It will also make sure your text fits on the 
page, by analyzing and auto-sizing it. And it will work on every printer 
out there.

My baseline string did not have the double quotes around the ^L.  I will try 
the new string and follow-up.

when you type the ^L,

You need to first type (control V) then type (control L) then it will come up 
as ^L (two characters, no control code)

This explains why it did not work on the new server... because I just typed ^L.

[U2] UniVerse On RedHat?

2010-11-05 Thread Bill Brutzman
0. We are considering migrating from HP-Ux to RedHat.
1. How is RedHat?
2. Will I have to re-compile and re-catalog everything?
3. Did anyone migrate from HP-Ux to RedHat and then back to HP-Ux?
4. Is the RedHat Standard Edition Suitable?
5. Did anyone try running UV on RedHat on an HP Integritity (Itanium) server?
6. Are there any gotchas?
7. Insights and hind-sights would be appreciated.

0. We are considering migrating from HP-Ux to RedHat.
1. How is RedHat?

It's been quite a few years since we did this, so i'll try to remember as best 
i can.  RH was fine; it worked well for us.

2. Will I have to re-compile and re-catalog everything?

Yes.  You'll also need to convert all the files to correct for endian. (don't 
recall the utility. Don't have access to files/docs right now...maybe via 
uvfixfile)

3. Did anyone migrate from HP-Ux to RedHat and then back to HP-Ux?

Nope.

4. Is the RedHat Standard Edition Suitable?

Should be...check matrix.

5. Did anyone try running UV on RedHat on an HP Integritity (Itanium) server?

No.

6. Are there any gotchas?

Shell scripts may have to be modified...echo will likely work a little 
differently.

7. Insights and hind-sights would be appreciated

Unless you do a uvbackup/uvrestore. Also, if you're running it on
RH/Itanium ... see below.

 Nope.

 4. Is the RedHat Standard Edition Suitable?

 5. Did anyone try running UV on RedHat on an HP Integritity (Itanium) server?

 No.

Is Itanium x86-compatible? I'm not sure it is ... so you may find you
cannot get a version of UV to run on Itanium. As mentioned elsewhere
check the compatibility matrix.

Oh - and if HP-Ux and Itanium run on same-endian hardware, then you
shouldn't need any conversion utilities - it's quite *possible* (not
certain, but very likely) that just copying both UV and your accounts,
then re-installing the correct version of UV over the copied version,
will result in a working system. Suck it and see.

 6. Are there any gotchas?

 Shell scripts may have to be modified...echo will likely work a little 
 differently.

 7. Insights and hind-sights would be appreciated

Re: [U2] UniVerse On RedHat?

2010-11-05 Thread jpb-u2ug
I've never moved UV from HP-Ux to Red Hat but I have worked on both. We went
from a Sun Risc system to Red Hat on Intel and, like Drew said, you would
have to do recompiling of programs and I-descriptors, and either
uvbackup/uvrestore or fnuxi the files. If you use any operating system
scripts or programs those will have to be checked for differences. The
spooler should work pretty much the same. I did our conversion on a Saturday
morning. Moving from a 'nix system to Windows was not as easy.
