RE: [U2] Freeing up AIX disk space
I keep deleting files from AIX, but when I run a df -k, the amount of free space seems to be decreasing as opposed to increasing. Does your free space always decrease that quickly? It sounds like you're deleting the files (with rm?) and the reason that you're not getting the space back is that the files are in use by another process .. Try the df -d command to see if there's deleted files pending .. If you log them off, you'll get the space back .. So if the person that's got the files opened is a phantom or daemon, you'd have to stop that process as well .. Before you do deletes, you should run the fuser -f filename (or fuser -c /filesystem) command to see if someone's using the file .. If files AREN'T in use, you should get the space back immediately .. If they're not in use, you'd be safe to resize them on the fly (if the resize is quick) .. If you're on UDT, i've got a script that I use that uses fuser and then figures out what UDT users are involved using listuser ..

RE: [U2] [UD] BASIC LOCKs
David, I don't currently use a READU on my UD system to LOCK phantoms, but I use it on UniVerse and it works unless you do an End Task on the UVSH process from the windows console .. Then you have to do some syntax of the UNLOCK command to fix things .. On my AIX machine, I use the listuser and ps commands to see if a phantom is actually still running .. This has it's quirks too .. That being said, I tested a small phantom process and had it do a LOCK 1 command and had it shutdown 3 ways without explicitly running a CLEAR.LOCKS command 1) normal exit (STOP) 2) deleteuser 3) input required In all three cases, the LOCK went away .. I may start using this as a way to check that my phantoms are running .. I know that UniVerse has similar LOCK syntax .. Does anyone else out there have any experience with LOCK and phantoms on UV? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of David Wolverton Sent: Wednesday, December 28, 2005 12:56 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] [UD] BASIC LOCKs Since we don't have Semaphore-like COMMON structures, I was going to use the BASIC LOCK to know that a Phantom was running -- the lock missing would tell me to start the process.

[U2] broken dynamic file on UDT
Hey all, I've got a *very* large dynamic file running on a UDT 6 / AIX 5 system .. I'm trying to fix it with memresize and getting the following error: Resize HISTFILE mod(,sep) = 0(,-1) type = -1 memory = 8000 (k) RESIZE file HISTFILE to 258317. The temporary file for memresize is rsztemp9jrTya. 2:blk check error in U_catch_tuple for file 'HISTFILE' key '35676354', number=224274 cannot read record from HISTFILE,key is 35676354 grp(224275) (1)th key -- RESIZE failed No dictionary file reference in VOC for rsztemp9jrTya. memresize failed.

[U2] InterCall on Linux (to AIX)
Hey all, All of this talk of web interfaces has gotten me to experiment with InterCall .. I'm trying to get a sample program running InterCall to work on a RedHat machine talking to a UDT database on an AIX machine .. I've successfully gotten the ICTEST program to work native on the AIX machine, and also have it talk to other servers that we have .. I'm guessing that to get the ICTEST working on Linux, I've got to get a version of PE for Linux, and then MAKE the ICTEST there .. IBM took down the PE from their web site .. So - assuming I've got my process correct, if anyone has a copy of PE to share so I can get InterCall working, please email me privately .. Thanks .. -Chuck --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Now-a-days, the processors are so infinitely fast that they clearly cover up less efficient programming. Therefore, it's easy to forget how far we've come. You know, I was about to cheer your efficiency argument - since I *still* try to be as efficient as possible regardless of the platform that I'm on, but then you went and shot yourself in the foot ;) The server I'm working on is IMHO *very* fast, but we run on SB+, which makes it extremely easy to do tons of extra reads than are actually necessary ..

RE: [U2] UV: Indexing I-Descriptors
In order to get the customer name we translate into the address book. Now Hence, you've got two unsynchronized indexes. That's the problem noted. I don't believe U2 has an internal function to resolve this situation. First off, I know that IBM doesn't support translates in indexes .. I know for a fact that it doesn't work on UV - you build the index, and it *SEEMS* to be OK, but all updates after that essentially produce a blank entry in the index, since all NEW records don't actually exist when the initial index update (and therefore initial translate) are done .. I suppose that if you wrote the record initially (blank index key) and then later updated the record without updating the translated data, the index would fix itself .. The index still doesn't consistently work this way, so you can't really use it .. /$.02 -chuck --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

It's not just U2 that likes to have multiple spindles. Any disk intensive processing activity will benefit by having the load split accross multiple disk subsystems. Agreed .. So why when we bought our new RS6000 about 1 year ago did the IBM guys try to sell us on a SMALLER number of LARGER disks and seemed suprised when we said we wanted a LARGER number of SMALLER disks (small being relative, since the smallest I could get now was 36gb) ..

RE: [U2] many spindles - was Copying data between two UV servers
FWIW, our newer disk cabinet with faster SCSI controllers and higher disk RPM (but fewer spindles) blows away the older one that has 2-3 times the spindles. :-) but 36 GB drives that cost a lot less, and that are a lot faster, and last a lot longer It's actually hard to think that a shop would NOT be mirrored/RAIDed these days, so the question of a big drive dying becomes moot, and I'd be suprised if the 36gb drives are actually faster than larger ones .. Also, besides single drive speed/seek times, etc, I'd like to see some sort of standard benchmark test, like this: we tested 12 of these 36gb drives using RAID 0+1 (striping and mirroring), for a total logical volume size of 216gb (6*36), with a combined seek rate of X, and were able to perform X transactions per second using (insert your DB of choice here) --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/

Stuart answered the real question with: F6/F6/I(i-dict) [thanks Stuart!] Mark, I'm curious where you got the syntax for: 008 A;S(10*(NV=4)) I can't use TFILE;X;10;10 because UV doesn't support indexing (even as a local file loopback TRANS) Besides, it falls into the performance conversation - It causes another read of the record. -Chuck --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] building DICT items
In case you don't find it, he's the nub of it. Thanks .. I was able to find this in the System Description PDF on-line .. it's just a *tiny* bit more detailed than what you've said here .. What I'd really like now is if anyone had a manual on the syntax of I-descriptor attribute 2 and A-Dictionary attribute 8 .. (BTW - U2 Tech Support tells me that such a manual doesn't exist, and I'm going to have to try older Ultimate and AP manuals GASP and see if they're any use .. but if you happen to have personal notes / manuals / etc ...) Any help would be appreciated .. -Chuck ;) --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] building DICT items
maybe Mr Bull's site ???... http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/mbtexts/23.html Great!!! .. Way more detailed than the System Description setion 5 .. It actually looks like a UniData spec (and I'm working with UniVerse in this case) .. Specifically, I'm looking to pull a single Multi-Value ( like EXTRACT(@RECORD,5,5,0) ) using an A-type (since I'm coupling this with SB+ and *have* to use A-types AFAIK ..) -Chuck --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
[U2] building DICT items
Can someone point me to the UniVerse manual (rev 9.5) that shows the syntax and rules on building D-type, A-type, and I-type DICTionary items? .. I've tried searching through the PDF's and can't find it (and since I'm primarily a SystemBuilder guy, I've never had to before ;) Thanks in advance .. -Chuck Mongiovi / Silver Line Building Products --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] COMO capturing EXECUTE output
HUSH ON EXECUTE COMMAND CAPTURING OUTPUT HUSH OFF The HUSH ON/OFF makes OUTPUT always come back blank .. I'd like to display OUTPUT in the COMO file when it's appropriate, and throw it away the rest of the time .. -CHuck --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
[U2] COMO capturing EXECUTE output
Does anyone know how to make COMO *NOT* capture EXECUTE output .. I'm
doing something like this:
001 EXECUTE ANY COMMAND CAPTURING STUFF
002 { CHECK STUFF FOR ERRORS }
003 IF ERRORS THEN PRINT STUFF
My program prints some output that I'll call NORMAL and I want to see that
in the COMO file .. when I run the EXECUTE command, I only want to see the
output if there's an error, so I can't use something like HUSH ON/OFF ..
Any ideas?

RE: [U2] SYSTEM(49) on UV
BTW: this isn't the first time SYSTEM(9001) appeared on this list. Sorry for the extra bandwith .. it's possible I didn't belong to the list the 1st time it came around .. Also, it was not intended to work as UniData's equivalent. In fact, it is not possible due to their very different internal architectures. I can always hope that they'll merge (share actually) more and more as time goes by .. as far as equivalency, it's fairly close, and that's close enough for me .. Thanks everyone, -Chuck --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] SYSTEM(49) on UV
give SYSTEM(9001) a try on UV. I think it was added at 10.0.4. Hmmm .. It seems to work .. not quite the same as UDT system(49), and it's not in the UV10 BASIC manual .. *AND* tech support told me yesterday that it didn't exist .. Hmmm ..

[U2] Triggers on UV
Are WRITE DELETE triggers available on UV 9.5? (or do they start with UV10) -Chuck --- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
