are You sure that the bounce comes from the listserver?

( To check that select show all headers and look for
 @listserver.u2ug.org  in any of the Received - headers.)

If they bounce eralier ask Your mail admin.

Re: [U2] Writeseq - getting to the EOF

We have used the SEEK filehandle, 0 2 statement

It is literally an exposure of the C seek statement.

George,

Have you tried the SEEK statement, ie,
SEEK filehandle, 0 , 2

The 0 (zero) is the offset and the 2 is relative to the end of the file.

Caution, untested code!
 
Good luck,

ok. UV 10.0.2

Is there a quick way to get to the end of a file to start appending after an 
OPENSEQ
Otherthan, a loop to READSEQ until it hits the EOF.

Right now, that is not a problem, but this file could grow to some considerable 
size, and
  that loop might take a little bit to cycle through.

I didn't see any options for the OPENSEQ to start at the EOF, and didn't find 
any commands
  that would set the eof (other than WEOFSEQ which doesn't seem likely to help).

[U2] CPU Spikes to 100%

2010-03-25 Thread Curt Stewart
The environment is a virtualized Windows 2003 Server and Universe 10.2.10

On occasion, I’ve been notified twice, it may have occurred more often, a
Universe process (tl_server.exe) will consume 100% of the CPU.  When this
happens, support is automatically notified and they need an explanation.  As
far as the application goes, there is only one background job and all other
jobs would execute immediately.  I was last notified when it occurred at
2:20am on the 3rd and then again apparently this week.  There are some users
based in India that could be using the system at the time these occur, but I
have not been able to make a connection to a user process yet.

Doe's anyone have any ideas why this might be happening or suggestions on
how to identify what ever is causing the spike?  Is there a Universe log
that might be able to give me a clue?

Thanks for any suggestions.

[U2] Unidata Silly Gripe

2010-03-25 Thread Jeff Butera
I know most won't care, but since I'm in the midst of a lot of Unidata 
migrations...


Unidata provides three nifty tools: convcode, convdata and convidx for use 
in migrating a database.


Can anyone tell me why the syntax for the three aren't the same?  convdata 
and convidx use a unix-like -r flag for recursive, whereas convcode 
does not:


convdata -r dirname
convidx -r dirname
convcode  dirname

I know this is absolutely trivial, but I've run into problems before 
scripting a moving and making the incorrect assumption that convcode took 
a -r flag.

Sorry - i think we were talking at cross purposes there.

Yes an account is just a directory but many people refer to the directory in

resides. - typically the program files would be sub directories inside this
account/directory - so you would have SOPprogs, SLprogs, etc   It would get
messy if inside this account you had say BP as your program directory with

selects and commands based on selects i.e. catalog and basic, may go awry
because of the sub directories inside it.

So i think the reasoning behind the exclusion of -r for convcode is that you
would not usually have a directory that had nothing in it except code and
also contained subdirectories also with code, the main directory would be an
account and as such you would not want to run convcode in the account, but
against each of the program files inside that account.

Re: [U2] Unidata Silly Gripe

2010-03-25 Thread Colin Alfke
Well, I'll certainly concur that an account is simply the location of the
VOC.

Key word there - typically.

Consider:
Acct\bp\live\SOprogs
Acct\bp\test\SOprogs
Acct\bp\custom\SOprogs
(OK - so no real pgm directories alongside programs. What about expanding to
:
Acct\bp\live\SOprogs\includes)

Vs.
Acct\SOprogs
Acct\testSOprogs
Acct\customSOprogs
Here you're likely mixing Data files/dicts with the program directories.
Besides - one is definitely more of a directory tree while the other is
more of a directory lawn :)

I guess messy is in the eye of the beholder. Plus, I'll certainly agree to
the flexibility of the VOC (although it's a double-edged sword). The issue I
have with UniData is that it will give you the flexibility with one hand and
take it away with the other. Usually, it seems to come down to a
typically. I've heard that the origin of UniData came from someone with a
very definitive view of the right and wrong way to do things and it really
shows every once in a while.

My silly gripe is that the OS level commands GUIDE and MEMRESIZE work
slightly differently. GUIDE will work on both the actual filename and the
VOC name while MEMRESIZE looks at the VOC record. If a local filename has a
VOC item that points elsewhere you can easily resize the wrong file or not
be able to resize something you think you should be able to.

of them is defined as a DIR in Unidata, but at the Unix level (and
convcode is a system-level command, not a Unidata verb) each is simply a
sub-directory of the source directory.

I know most won't care, but since I'm in the midst of a lot of Unidata 
migrations...


Unidata provides three nifty tools: convcode, convdata and convidx for use 
in migrating a database.


Can anyone tell me why the syntax for the three aren't the same?  convdata 
and convidx use a unix-like -r flag for recursive, whereas convcode 
does not:


convdata -r dirname
convidx -r dirname
convcode  dirname

I know this is absolutely trivial, but I've run into problems before 
scripting a moving and making the incorrect assumption that convcode took 
a -r flag.

Re: [U2] Trouble sending reply emails

2010-03-25 Thread Bill Haskett
The problem with Thunderbird is that you can't, well, at least I can't, 
set it up to reply to the U2 list in text mode if you normally respond 
to email in auto detect mode.  I've set everything up to auto detect 
except email I send to the U2 group.  But, if I don't originate the 
email, i.e. I respond to U2 mail, I have to click on Options  Format  
Plain Text Only before I click [Send], otherwise the email is rejected 
by the U2 list server.


I make this mistake all the time and have found that, as with this 
issue, there are quite a few quirks in Thunderbird that irritate me.  
However, not as much as Outlook consuming all the resources on my client 
machine and not properly connecting to IMAP servers.  I must say that 
Outlook's interface is much smoother than Thunderbirds but the 
connections to the mail server are disgraceful compared to Thunderbird.  
Hence, I use Thunderbird because I need to connect to several IMAP mail 
servers and only want to to use one email client.

[U2] U2 Users Group - UniData LOG file placement requests

2010-03-25 Thread Wally Terhune
Here is what I collected from postings regarding UniData log and error log 
placement. Feel free to forward anything I missed.
Note - some of the comments strayed into application architecture and log level 
determination and reporting - beyond the original discussion of log placement.
If we make log location configurable, we will have to think thru things like:

-  Are these udtconfig settings that are fixed for all users until the 
UniData daemons are stopped and restarted?

-  Are these environment variable settings that could vary per user 
session? (I don't think so).

-  What happens to one set of logs when the settings are changed and 
startud is run? Do we remember the old location and migrate the saved_logs to 
the new location?
I'm sure there are many more.

Additional comments welcomed,
Regards
Wally


My original posting on 3/15/10 (responding to a general comment):


I would be happy to entertain (and formally register) a detailed, coherent 
proposal for logs, error logs, diagnostic logs - location and management.

Do you still want the saved_logs directory concept? (20 or configurable?

Iterations saved)

What happens at 'startud'? Anything happen at 'stopud'?

Is the trunclog command useful?

Should the detailed UniBasic run-time error message logging provided by 7.2.0 
/usr/ud72/include/msglevelconfig be placed separate from udt.errlog?

Should RFS have a separate log for error messages?

Should RFS Archiving - have a separate log for offload messages?

Client/server debug logs are inconsistent in configuration and activation.

What would you propose in this area?

Locations must be discoverable by tools that collect information for 
diagnostics (such as udtdiag).

What else am I missing?



Whereas I am constantly requesting more usable content of the messages, can we 
just focus on the overall architecture for this specific proposal?



This would be something to be considered by PM for UniData.NEXT and prioritized 
with the rest of the enhancements.

Other venues for proposals such as this are u2-users better and better forum 
and the UniData CAB (just recently formed by PM).



From Dan McGrath on 3/15/10:


Location, if fixed:



$UDTHOME/log[s]/server/

$UDTHOME/log[s]/client/



This allows client and server logging to be on separate mount points if the 
admin desires, without needing the configuration options



If configurable, just make the parameter a path relative to $UDTHOME



Saved_logs:



Yes. Saved_logs is the right concept. Having it either in the log[s] directory 
or configurable relative to $UDTHOME would be an acceptable option.



Trunclog: I do believe it is useful. We have at least 1 application here that 
would have benefitted from this command. One caveat, however.

Having the possibility of log data being lost is not acceptable in a production 
environment. Maybe instead of 'trunclog' a 'SwitchOutLog'

would be better. This would instead to processes that are logging to close 
there current log file, move it out to the saved_logs directory and open a new 
one. A slightly more complex solution of writing to a temporary log file while 
the trunclog/switchoutlog was in process would prevent data loss without 
causing a system to pause while the logs are processed.



RFS:



Having RFS logging separate would make any automation of monitoring them easier 
to tune. If something is considered a separate sub-system, it should either 
have its own log file, or the log file contents should be structured in a 
manner where the particular sub-system in question can be found in a consistent 
manner/location. I cannot really speak about RFS logging however, as we are not 
running it so I have no idea of the volume of logging data being generated.



This isn't a detailed proposal (or perhaps even coherent), as I'm not sure work 
would be happy with me doing it on the clock, but it is some general ideas on 
the architecture.

From Steve Romanow on 3/16/10:


Nothing prevents us from using syslog right?  Ive been thinking about

logging a lot lately.



Specifically, syslog-ng or rsyslog.



Any unix db should log to syslog.



From Bill Haskett on 3/16/10:


What's wrong with syslog?  We use Windows.  I don't have a problem with UD 
logging to the event log, but many applications log to their own standard area. 
 UD logging needs to be configured, so having that in the same area would be 
nice too.  cross-platform?



I suspect, all U2 logging should configure in one location/directory and write 
to one location/directory.  Every logging needs archiving and I understand 
@UDTHOME/bin/saved_logs does that, although @UDTHOME/logs/saved_logs would 
be a better location.  It could be nice to have a structure like:



@UDTHOME

+ config

+  logs

+ saved_logs



...and one could have an environment variable names @UDTCONF and @UDTLOGS where 
one could offload these directories somewhere else.

Probably because you would never have subdirectories in your program
directory.

One thing you could do is to make that sleep like 30 seconds, find that pid, 
then use the AIX truss command against it while it's sleeping, and see
what bombs.



When they drop to AIX, are they in the directory specified in /etc/passwd, or 
somewhere else?


And how are you invoking UV? From the local .profile?

And are you just running UV, then logging out from inside the .profile?

What we did when running on nix (Pr1me RISCoS) was to 'exec' UV (or PI) 
from the .profile. That way, UV overwrites .profile in memory - a sort 
of chain - and when it quits the login session quits. At least that will 
(or should) stop your users dropping to nix - a login failure should 
simply dump them straight out of the system again.

Re: [U2] Unidata Silly Gripe

Actually, you COULD do this on the Pr1me.  Our application was migrated to
Unidata from Pr1me Information.  We always kept program sub-directories
segregated by application (e.g. AR, AP, GL, etc).


But I'm guessing you had *separate* VOC entries for AR, AP etc. At the 
OS level they were under one sub-directory but inside of PI they were 
separate FILEs.


What I'm talking about - what I think Pick has - is where you have - at 
the *PICK* level, one BP FILE, and then loads of subfiles in it. Which 
is stored (by default) as one directory with sub-directories at the OS 
level.


In other words, in PI you're talking about the OS level - nothing to 
with PI. In Pick you're actually IN PICK, it's nothing to do with the 
OS.

Just a different way of doing it i suppose - i do have separate sub
directories but they are under the dev account and not under say BP


Just a little point - bearing in mind I've never used genuine Pick but I
think Larry et al are describing *TYPICAL* Pick usage. You couldn't do
that on Pr1me so anybody (like me) only used to the Pr1me approach this
would seem strange.

We had three (actually four) main program directories on our system,
called CBP, GBP and RBP. But on a Pick system they would typically have
been defined as subfiles of BP, eg BP,COL BP,GEN and BP,REM.

Really?  We have more than 20 subdirectories in our program directory.

Each

of them is defined as a DIR in Unidata, but at the Unix level (and
convcode is a system-level command, not a Unidata verb) each is simply a
sub-directory of the source directory.
