[U2] Refresh UV user permissions without restarting UV Service ?

2011-01-28 Thread Arnold Bosch
Hi everyone. Is it possible to force Universe to refresh it's internal permissions list without restarting the UV service? I have a user that I added to the Windows Administrators group after the user was created on Windows and in Universe. It does not appear that UV picks up that this user is

Question on the UUID created here - it looks like the 'middle' is what will be the 'most unique'. I'm guessing the SysID never changes, and the same PID could 'live' for days at a time and could even 'show up' again later, so the last segment could end up being used on a significant number of

[U2] What do you do with CallHTTP?

What uses have you found for CallHTTP for in your applications? Are you 'eating' someone else's data with it - like doing lookups against a web service call? Or are you using it to 'serve' data to others? Rocket says you can do this, but I can't see how it would work offhand and would like to

It's one thing if you change the permissions for a resource that the user is trying to access, but when you change the rights that a user is assigned, any session that is already active for that user already has all its access tokens and won't reflect your change. You will have to log that

BUILD.INDEX has to be able to get exclusive access to the primary file to start. It then blocks updates to the primary file (reads allowed) until it is finished. This is the long-time default behavior. Of course, you can use BUILD.INDEX ... ONLINE to avoid that requirement. This is a bit slower,
