[U2] Unix nfiles phantoms

G'day, We recently had an issue with nfiles on our HP-UX 11i (UV10.0.16) system, where we hadn't been increasing nfiles after adding extra UniVerse users and were getting close to the nfiles limit. We've now adjusted nfiles accordingly, but realised we don't know whether phantoms should be taken

[U2] Digest users getting individual posts

Looks like the Digest system isn't working properly - I'm getting individual posts instead of the Digest. David Norman Senior Software Engineer SA Ambulance Service Box 3, GPO Adelaide, South Australia 5001 *+61 8 8274 0384 * fax +61 8 8271 4844 * [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[U2] Digest - sequence of posts

... and as well as restoring the Digest function, any chance of the Digest being in some logical sequence again ? It's rather hard to follow threads when the answers come before the question ... David Norman Senior Software Engineer SA Ambulance Service Box 3, GPO

[U2] Re: Phantom creating Zombies

Thanks to all who responded - NOTIFY ON seems to have done the trick, despite some people saying it didn't work for them, with the added bonus of the spawned phantom reporting when it's finished. David Norman Senior Software Engineer SA Ambulance Service Box 3, GPO

[U2] Phantom creating Zombies

UV 10.0.16 (Information) HP-UX 11i We have a permanently-running phantom, which needs to periodically start another phantom, with both phantoms running independently. When the 2nd phantom stops, that process becomes a zombie until the original phantom stops (which is preferably just about never).

RE: [U2] Time conversion code

The change in functionality was documented at 10.0 as a GTAR fix. As there are only 24 hours in a day, the logic was that MT shouldn't go above 24 hours. I recall there was discussion on the list about this at the time. David Norman Senior Software Engineer SA Ambulance

RE: [U2] Time conversion code

This (IMO unwanted) change in functionality occurred at 10.0. I have written a user conversion to return the time greater than 24 hours: 01: SUBROUTINE U2134(ANSWER,STATUS,DATA,CONVTYPE) 0002: * OCONV to show hours 24 after UV10 changes hh:mm 0003: * 0004: * CATALOG AS $2134 e.g. CATALOG

[U2] [uv] Using XML commands in Basic

UV 10.0.16 (Information) HP-UX. I have a program that processes incoming XML quite happily using various .ext extraction files. I'm not sure, however, what XML commands need to be run if an XML command has an error. For instance, if the PrepareXML fails, do I have to do a ReleaseXML ? And if the

[U2] Horribly Overflowed Dynamic File

UV10.0.16 (Information) HP-UX. I have a dynamic file where every group is badly overflowed. Each record size is between 5k and 6k, so a group size of 2048 or 4096 can't contain a whole record. I'm not so much concerned about performance as disk space - when I purge the file, hardly any disk space

RE: [U2] Runtime Stack Overflow [uv]

Thanks to Brian, Sara, Mark, Charles and Baker for your responses. I hope Brian and Charles have hit the nail on the head. I did manage to create an infinitely recursive subroutine call, exactly as Charles said, by reusing code from a different program with slightly different structure (GOTO

[U2] Runtime Stack Overflow [uv]

UV 10.0.16 (Information) HP-UX 11. I am developing a new phantom that will run 24x7 until told to stop. I have many phantoms running this way. The new phantom won't run for more than about 12 hours no matter what time started, when it aborts with a Runtime Stack Overflow, pointing to a quite

[U2] Outputting XML to a file [uv]

What's the best way of outputting XML to a file (uv 10.0.16, HP-UX) ? I may need to output a DTD, which Cedarville's Download doesn't do, and the uv manual says to send to HOLD or a COMO, but then the output file contains extraneous lines (blanks, and count of records listed) that need to be

[U2] [UV] Upgrading user count requires UV shutdown

We have purchased extra licences for our UV 10.0.16 system, and have discovered on our test system that we need to stop UniVerse in order to install them, otherwise we get an abnormal termination. Previously under 9.6 this could be done dynamically with all users logged on, and I am advised that

[U2] Unix to SQL Server

I know I'm probably going over old ground again, but what's the present state of play for UniVerse on HP-UX connecting to SQL Server on w2000/2003 to update tables ? Do I need middleware ? If so, what is recommended ? UV10.0.16 HP-UX 11 Thanks, David Norman Senior

Re: [U2] PCL Codes taking character positions [UV]

Thanks, Adrian Louis. I should have remembered about making the line longer to allow for control characters - I do this for CSV files at times. Mike, I do SETPTR mode 3 CAPTURING HOLD.ID, and later on SPOOL HOLD FIELD(HOLD.ID,' ', 2). Can't remember why the FIELD is necessary, but it all works

[U2] Terminal Servers

Happy Australia Day ! HP-UX 11i, UV10. We currently use HP DTCs (Datacommunications and Terminal Controllers) to provide both connectivity for dumb terminals, and binary or ASCII I/O for various black boxes, PCs and printers under the control of daemons. HP are discontinuing support for these

[U2] UV (HP-UX) Jerkiness on terminals

We have recently upgraded our HP-UX systems, from old boxes that ran at 10Mb/s half duplex, to new ones that run at 100Mb/s full duplex. We have quite a few terminals, which either run at 10Mb/s half duplex, or talk serially to HP terminal servers which run at 10Mb/s half duplex. Since the

[U2] Tuning UniVerse for Unix

Does anyone know if there is a later version of the Maximising Performance for UniVerse Systems technical bulletin 74-0107 than the v9.5/6 versions on IBM's site ? I am particularly interested in UV 10.0.16 on HP-UX 11i, if there are any differences. Thanks, David Norman

[U2] uvfixfile select lists

We are preparing to migrate from our old HP-UX system running UV 9.4 HP-UX 10.20 to our new system running UV 10.0.16 HP-UX 11i and are doing some file consistency checks before migration. We have noticed some bizarre behaviour when uvfixfile is running on a select list of dynamic files. We

re: [U2] [UV] TIME() truncation

Karl, As far as I know there isn't an OS solution - the easiest way I found was to add a $OPTIONS TIME.MILLISECOND to each program and re-compile. Another option is to use INT(TIME()) in each statement. David Norman Senior Systems Engineer SA Ambulance Service Box 3, GPO
