Re: [U2] easy way to get count of a DIM()?
First off, I've never seen that syntax before. Do you mean: DIM X(25) or do you mean you are setting X to the 25th value in a dimensioned variable? And I don't understand what you mean when you say some records get taken out. How are they taken out?

Hi All,
Again, I need a little help.
The following PROCEDURE LINE works just fine. In this case I'm just
inserting the variable V.CALENDAR.YEAR to complete my file suite and I am
going after 2 alphanumeric records ('P2021422' 'P2083158').
PROCEDURE LINE SELECT GLA.:V.CALENDAR.YEAR: WITH GLA.REF.NO =

The problem arises when I attempt to select from a LIST (below)
PROCEDURE LINE SELECT GLA.:V.CALENDAR.YEAR: WITH GLA.REF.NO = :
VL.JS.LIST.VAR1
Of course the system does not like the Value Marker so I need to get rid
of it...
VL.JS.LIST.VAR1 = ':CONVERT (@VM,' ',VL.JS.LIST.VAR1):'
The hope here is to replace @VM with ' ' and then place the ' at each
end... but CONVERT will only switch one for one - one @VM for a single
single quote (') which results in a quote mismatch.
Any suggestions?

We are looking to eliminate the dumb terminal, but we are stuck on how to send a print job to a local printer hooked to a PC. Has anyone done this before? Is it possible? The remote warehouse is not on our network - the only way they can connect is via telent. If you're planning to replace the network with a PC, and you're connecting over a phone line, then aren't the dial-up costs a factor? What I'd do is at least think about getting a broadband connection, then linking your PC into the main network through a VPN. Will the PC be running Windows or Linux? If it's linux, once the VPN is in place, the PC will be transparently on your network, and you can run a print spooler such as CUPS. If it's Windows, the same probably applies. The big question is what's the *physical* connection between the warehouse and the main network, and do you plan to change that? As soon as you swap the terminal for a PC you should be a able to run a network over that, even if it's something as old-fashioned as SLIP (serial line Internet Protocol iirc).

[U2] Purging and Indexing
Good Morning, Looking for opinions and experiences here. We are trying to do some system cleanups. We found that our PO file has over 10 million records dating back some 7 years. We've decided that 2 years of PO history is plenty to keep on file. Currently there are no indices on this file. Our question is would it be quicker to do a select and delete of the older records before building an index on invoice date or would it be quicker to build the index first to use in the select for the purge? This index has been identified as being needed for some reporting. My thinking is that while the select for the purge may go quicker, if the index is in place prior to the purge then the delete process not only has to delete the selected records it also has to update the index on the fly.

There is an AIX version available and a trial can be arranged via: https://h10078.www1.hp.com/cda/hpms/display/main/hpms_content.jsp?zn=btocp=1-11-15-28^9637_4000_100 Whatever tool you use, where it lets you categorise UNIX processes will help. In the past, a previous employer hired a consultant from HP to do the analysis (GlancePlus temp license came with the consultancy). He put together a report to help tune HP-UX and help us identify processes that we needed to optimise. Whatever the tool, clearly you need to have a good handle of what processes you run. You can do additional stuff like have your own phantom verb which logs when it is fired up and get your any program run as phantom to log it's PID, @PARASENTENCE and @SENTENCE values into a log file (along with date time stamps, etc). Correlate these with your performance collections stats which hopefully includes PIDs and UNIX commands (uv, uvsh, phantom, u2amiproxy, etc, etc).. -Original Message- From: u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org [mailto:u2-users-boun...@listserver.u2ug.org] On Behalf Of Boydell, Stuart Sent: Friday, 21 January 2011 11:04 AM To: U2 Users List Subject: [U2] [UV][AIX] System Management and Performance Tools Hi, Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations for systems monitoring/management tools for aix5.3/uv10.2.4. I've seen occasional discussions on the topic here over the years. Ideally, what we would like to do is be able to track down those end of month type processes which bog the system down with CPU IO bottlenecks during peak load periods. I suppose this could be done with something like topas, truss and PORT.STATUS but just wondering what is available. There was a tool called DPMonitor that looked like it could be suitable - does this exist in any form? Also, does anyone know if the Travels with Mark: A Hitchhiker's Guide to the UniVersehttp://www.google.com/url?sa=tsource=webcd=1sqi=2ved=0CBIQFjAAurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.mail-archive.com%2Fu2-users%40listserver.u2ug.org%2Fmsg13400.htmlrct=jq=dm-dw-dm-0512baldridge-iei=jMs4TavnI4mYvAOC0uiJCgusg=AFQjCNGTQCWE14j2-XEP6lQSFjTnMi98Zgcad=rja series on performance tuning is available anywhere.

Re: [U2] Upgrading and Migrating from Unix to Windows
Along with being limited to two users, the UniData and UniVerse Personal Editions also have an eight-process limit and a limitation of modulo 10007 assigned to a file. Also, the following add-ons do not function: Connection Pooling, EDA, NFA, RFS, UV/Net.
