Re: [U2] UniQuery COPY FROM syntax error - Weird behavior

2012-08-01 Thread Gregor Scott
Check the VOC entries for "COPY" and "FROM" to ensure they are correct.
It could be that something other than the failed COPY command has caused your 
problem by corrupting the "FROM" entry in the VOC.

Subject: [U2] UniQuery COPY FROM syntax error - Weird behavior

I have encountered a strange problem after mistyping the UniQuery COPY command 
in one of our development environments. The command tried to copy the same 
record to itself and failed gracefully but subsequent attempts to properly copy 
records in this environment fail with a syntax error.

:COPY FROM APPROVALS RECORD1, RECORD1
Copying APPROVALS RECORD1 to RECORD1...
RECORD1 exists in APPROVALS, cannot overwrite
0 records copied


All copy statements now result in the message:


:COPY FROM APPROVALS RECORD1, RECORD2
-^
syntax error


We have several environments on the same server but our dev account seems to be 
the only one affected.

Does anyone have any thoughts on what could be the problem and suggest a 
resolution. Thanks in advance.

Can you compare the VOC entry of COPY in the other working accounts vs. the VOC 
COPY entry in your development account? Do they match?

The use of COPY FROM is flavor dependent, per each accounts' setting

ED VOC RELLEVEL is see your flavor for *this* account

Actually, the statement I am using is copying a record with an old key to a new 
key in the same file (basically just changing the primary key keeping 
everything 
else identical). It is syntactically correct and works in other environments 
but 
the command interpreter is throwing an error in this one environment. 

Just tried the lower case "copy" and received the same error. Grrr...

Re: [U2] Running a command in a different account

2012-08-01 Thread Tom Whitmore

We are working on an internal scheduler to run jobs in other accounts.

You can add the LOGTO command to your paragraph or proc and log to whatever 
account you need to run the process in...  As long as the login VOC tests for 
phantoms it should work fine.

Subject: [U2] Running a command in a different account

Greetings!



We have a program that runs in one account, but under certain conditions it is 
becoming necessary for that program to execute a command in another account, 
and then continue on its merry way doing other things.  One fairly simplistic 
example might be that the process might find it necessary to create a file in 
another account.



We have come up with a number of different ways of accomplishing this, but all 
involve a "phantom" LOGTO of some sort -whether it be through working with the 
UV.ACCOUNT file, the LOGIN paragraph, or some combination of the above.  While 
this will do what is necessary, there are timing issues to consider, control 
and response issues, error checking, etc.  It can be done, but it's not pretty.



Does anyone have a more elegant and efficient way of accomplishing this?



Thanks in advance!



Brian F. Paige

Re: [U2] Universe; SQL; Indexes?? (10.3.7 on Windows)

2012-08-01 Thread Hona, David
Try and be very specific what it is you are doing and why. For example - why 
are you using SQL? Are you doing SQL queries via the TCL prompt or using a 
client tool on Windows? What is the query? What do you mean by 'optimize the 
performance'...Etc., etc. 

UV has two query languages and a single database engine. Meaning, there is 
should be no difference in respect to the utilisation of indices. 

Clearly, if you have having to do a SQL query that requires unnest or join 
operation - then indices may not be significant in improving performance. 

Try adding the EXPLAIN keyword to your query give some clue to what (if any) 
query optimisation is going on...including of indices.

Being unfamiliar with SQL can also be part of the issue...it's extremely 
powerful and can be difficult to master. Hence not for the faint hearted - 
especially if the query is complex and/or your table/schema is also complex. 
You can perform queries which can have a profound impact on the system 
performance, if incorrectly structured. 

Indexes aren't the answer to every optimisation issue. There needs to be a 
balance between cost versus benefit. It depends on the nature and utilisation 
of the file in question.

Therefore: one really needs to optimise one's own SQL skills...not an easy 
ask...then optimise your query in order maximise expected query performance. Or 
perhaps avoid SQL, if it is not really necessary to utilise it.

Regards,
David

Subject: [U2] Universe; SQL; Indexes?? (10.3.7 on Windows)

I'm using SQL to query Universe 10.3.7 data files, (ANSi-compliant and 
non-compliant formats) and indexing the files to try to optimize the 
performance seems in some cases to have little or no effect.

I'm pretty clear on index behavior with Universe's native query language, but 
SQL is somewhat unfamiliar to me, and I'm wondering why I'm not getting the 
behavior I expect.

Can anyone either point me to reference material on this, or offer thoughts 
based on experience?

Thank you.
