[U2] Converting static to dynamic

Re: [U2] universe/unidata question
I think it's reaching the point where there aren't a great deal of differences and it's more one of working with the one you know best unless some of the detail stuff matters to you. For example if all the internationalisation stuff matters to you then you need UniVerse. Similarly I think I'm right in saying that UniVerse is ahead on some security excryption issues. But then UniData has EDA if you want to put data out into DB2...and so on. UniData's dynamic files work fine these days although you still have to do a bit of management of them George Land APT Solutions Ltd On 23/7/07 21:24, Doug Chanco [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hey all, I was wondering if anyone can tell me (or knows of any good sites/articles that talk about) the benefits of universe over unidata (and visa versa).

Re: [U2] Converting static to dynamic
We run pretty much all of our files as dynamic although mainly because we write software for resale and it is much easier for a customer site to be managed if everything is dynamic. The main issue is to try and create the dynamic file at roughly the right size rather than creating it small and letting it grow. It will be quicker to copy and will perform better. Once created we haven't seen any serious performance issues so long as they are managed. It's not as serious as managing a static file but you do still have to keep an eye on them and resize them once in a while George Land APT Solutions Ltd On 24/7/07 09:05, Jonathan Leckie [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We have two very large files from which I often have to remove data to stop the files reaching the 2GB limit, much as I enjoy removing this data my colleague has suggested that changing these files to be dynamic would mean we could allow them to hold more data and choose when to remove old data rather than be forced to.

RE: [U2] Converting static to dynamic
KEYONLY would not work for us for the most part. We have File Keys that were 10-15 characters. Our record sizes would be 300-800. So we would never get enough Keys in a group to cause splitting. KEYDATA works fine in 90% of our files. But we have files that have meaningful keys that do not hash well. Keys like this do poorly with hashing in Unidata: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] And they are a disaster with KEYDATA. Splitting happens continuously as the hashing causes records to hash to the same groups even after the split. So I had to go back to KEYONLY and I manually have to resize these files with meaningful keys on a yearly basis. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Dave Davis Sent: Tuesday, July 24, 2007 8:27 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] Converting static to dynamic Use hash type 1.

It does not adversely effect the operation of the system in any way. This is handy since all processes that might use uoj (tomcat, java, etc) will automatically benefit from it. I hope this helps.

[U2] Re: Move data files from Unidata to Universe
UPDATE:
Here is a response I received from IBM:
Scott,
I have checked with our Lab Services (aka consulting) group and they tell
me that there have been no requests to migrate a UniData account to
UniVerse, and there are no native utilities within UniVerse to do this.
They are willing to discuss this with you as a billable engagement.
FYI, if this had been the inverse .. migrating a UV account to UniData, it
would have been no problem, as UniData comes bundled with a command called
UV_RESTORE, which takes a uvbackup sourced account and restores and
converts it to UniData file formats.
So perhaps there is another way to skin this cat. Is there a way to
read/write to UDT files directly from UV?

Use .NET to write a simple read/write utility to use UniObject.NET to
copy logical records from one data source to another? I think UD and
UV can coexist on the same machine (somebody please confirm or
negate), so you wouldn't necessarily have to pay network overhead.
Or, write your own dump/load utility in UniBasic(s).

Re: [U2] Re: Move data files from Unidata to Universe
I can confirm (that ud/uv will run fine on the same system) as I currently run jBASE 4.1, unidata 7.x amd universe 10.x on the same virtual machine running linux (centos to be exact (free version fo red hats advanced sever 4.0)) and they all work just fine together dougc Clifton Oliver wrote: Use .NET to write a simple read/write utility to use UniObject.NET to copy logical records from one data source to another?
