Rocket® U2 | UniVerse & UniData®

Hello,Oracle client version that is supported by UniData EDA is Oracle client version 11 (read it in UniData EDA doc for 7.x and 8.x).  OS: HP-UX Itanium 11.  Currently, we are using Oracle instant client 11.2 with UniData 7.3.   I was checking $UDTBIN/edasetup.sh script.  It seems like EDA uses following libraries/usr/lib/hpux64/libclntsh.so.11.1@ -> /usr/local/instantclient/libclntsh.so.11.1/usr/lib/hpux64/libnnz11.so@ -> /usr/local/instantclient/libnnz11.so/usr/lib/hpux64/libocci.so.11.1@ -> /usr/local/instantclient/libocci.so.11.1/usr/lib/hpux64/libociei.so@ -> /usr/local/instantclient/libociei.soWe need to upgrade Oracle client to be at least 12.2.  I am wondering if I can force EDA to use higher version of oracle client by changing the above symbolic links.  For example, I want to use 19c client.. maybe change sym link to be like below manually? /usr/lib/hpux64/libclntsh.so.11.1  ->  /blahblah/libclntsh.so.19.1/usr/lib/hpux64/libocci.so.11.1 -> /blahblah/libnnz1

I was an Info/Basic programmer with about ten years of experience working on a PRIME 9955 system.   When Prime went out of business the college I was working for switched to Oracle and I've been working with Oracle since 1996.  As I coast into retirement I'm interested in reviving the multi-value skills I once had.  I downloaded UNIVERSE and UNIDATA from Rockets website and started playing with it.   They seem very similar.For those of you that were once PR1ME Info/Basic, Inform, Primos developers, which environment would you suggest I focus on, UNIVERSE or UNIDATA?Also, is there a cheap way to get a Personal Edition (PE), single seat license?  I really don't want to develop and small or large scale systems.  I'm really interested in reviving the PICK skills I once had.I have a copy of INFO/PC that I installed on an old Windows 98 system I recently rebuilt to play games.  INFO/PC was a cool PE system.ThanksDan ------------------------------Daniel SimsonPresidentRocket Forum Shared

Hi - I am switching back from 20 years of Unidata, to Universe....can't remember all the differences but I'm sure I will pick it back up quickly. One thing I just tried and couldn't do...editing mv and smv lines with the EV (edit values) command.... can someone pop off the command to edit values in the line editor on Universe? Thanks!------------------------------Kathleen HambrickProgrammer at Colwell------------------------------

for the I-Types, there is a command to run so a program can have access to the data as it's interpreted by the I-TYPE.  What I don't seem to be able to find is something that could do the same for the correlative field 8 in S-type dictionaries in particular for the A; notation for algebraic style.  we have lots of classic dictionaries and it would be helpful to be able to programmatically interpret.normal conversion, and Trans type correlatives OCONV just fine, but when its a referencing other dictionary items, doesn't seem to workAnyone tried this before?

I am trying to port some jBase programming that used to allow for PGUP/PGDN/arrow keys/CTRL-A/CTRL-E to Universe.  It appears the best choice for this is the special !GET.KEY subroutine.  When trying to test this out, I am seeing odd results when running the sample program from the documentation.  ​Here is what I see what I press the RIGHT ARROW:01 SINGLE.INPUTType a character or press a function key (q to quit):CODE = -1 (Unrecognised function key)STRING = CHAR(27) CHAR(91)Type a character or press a function key (q to quit):CODE = 0 (Normal character)STRING = CHAR(68)Type a character or press a function key (q to quit): Here is what I see when I press PGUP:01 SINGLE.INPUTType a character or press a function key (q to quit):CODE = -1 (Unrecognised function key)STRING = CHAR(27) CHAR(79) CHAR(82)Type a character or press a function key (q to quit): Notice how the PGUP returned one string with all the values and RIGHT ARROW returned TWO strings, broken up... any thoughts as to why that

Hi Guys,We have an application that has been working fine for over 20 years, it's running on Unidata 8.1.2 on Windows Server 2012 using SB+ and SBClient 5.5.4This session runs unattended 24/7 on the server console and basically... 1. scans the database for new transactions 2. packages them into files 3. transfers those files to a folder (to be picked up by an external FTP process) 4. sleeps for 15 minutes 5. return to step 1Late last year we suddenly started to get the below error pop-up, this error disconnects the session, if I reconnect the session it then runs OK for a while (perhaps a few days) but then this same thing happens again[Graphical user interface, text, application Description automatically generated]This customer has 5 servers running this same application and once this started to happen on one server it also started to happen on the other servers too.If the servers are rebooted the issue seems to go away for a while but then comes back.Occasionally users usi

When Unidata is licensed on HP-UX, is there any dependency on the IP address or system name, or could either be changed without impacting Unidata's license?

I received a ticket from a client asking why a phantom job keeps blowing up after an indeterminate amount of time.  The _PH_ logs shows this: In /usr/udthome/sys/CTLG/c/someProgram at line 493 Phantom run basic error, exit 3. Phantom run basic error, exit 3. Line 493 of someProgram is literally this:EXECUTE "a command"So it seems like whatever that command happens to be, the TCL level that is running with the EXECUTE is blowing up for some reason.  Running out of memory seems like a likely choice, but there may be other reasons as well, of course.  The question is, when there's an issue like this, is anything logged anywhere?

Sorry to say I will have a lot of questions as I acclimate back to universe. Here's my latest....04 PORT.STATUSThere are currently 99 uniVerse sessions; 96 interactive, 3 phantomPid.... User name. Who. Port name..... Last command processed............67091 COAT2 21 /dev/pts/17 GRUN203.INPUT [ GRUN203.INPUT @ 0x7FA ]>PORT.STATUS PID 67091Unknown option specified.Why 'unknown option specified'??

I used the call.stack feature of unidata's port.status - I dont see that on universe. layer.stack does not appear to be even remotely the same...is there a function on universe that will show me what program(s) a port is currently running?thanks!------------------------------Kathleen HambrickProgrammer at Colwell------------------------------

OpenSSL cert parsing bug causes infinite denial of service loop BleepingComputer remove preview OpenSSL cert parsing bug causes infinite denial of service loop OpenSSL has released a security update to address a vulnerability in the library that, if exploited, activates an infinite loop function and leads to denial of service conditions. Denial of service attacks may not be the most disastrous security problem. However, it can still cause significant business interruption, long-term financial repercussions, and brand reputation degradation for those affected. View this on BleepingComputer > Came across this today and noted that OpenSSL v1.1.1 is impacted, which means UV 11.3.4 is affected.------------------------------Gregor ScottSoftware ArchitectPentana Solutions Pty LtdMount Waverley VIC AU------------------------------

I am beginning our journey with MVX:P and UV 11.3.4 on RHEL8.Reading through the MVX install guide I noted that the MVAdmin installation "highly recommend"s making the following uvconfig changesPERF_SYSTEM_SECTIONS   17PERF_SESSION_SECTIONS   17PERF_SYSTEM_FILES   29PERF_SESSION_FILES  29The default setting for these in a clean UV 11.3.4 install on RHEL8 has these set at follows:PERF_SYSTEM_SECTIONS   17PERF_SESSION_SECTIONS   11PERF_SYSTEM_FILES   163PERF_SESSION_FILES  19The description of these settings in the uvconfig leads me to conclude that the xx_SYSTEM_xx settings are the system-wide maximums, and the xx_SESSION_xx are maximums for a monitoring session. What I don't understand, and the documentation on MVX does not help here, is what's the relationship between the xx_SYSTEM_xx settings and the xx_SESSION_xx settings? Are the session settings a sub-set of the system ones, or do they control something totally different to the system one?If the session items are a sub-set of the

HiDoes anyone know when UniVerse will stop being developed for the HP-UX Itanium platform? Can I also ask if anyone knows when the platform will stop being supported (EOS/EOL)?I'm in the process of upgrading a customer to UniVerse 11.3.4 on the Itanium platform and the customer was enquiring about release 12.x. I don't believe there will be any release 12 versions for the HP-UX Itanium platform.I know there was an announcement made regarding the Itanium platform a few years ago but can't find it.Thank you.Kind RegardsFausto Di Donato

We're running Entrinsik's Informer against Unidata 8.2.1 on Redhat 7, and the logs show an error suggesting that we increase the VFIELDSIZE.Their recommendation is to increase it - globally - to 10K, which I'm happy to do.Is there a way to get it to take effect without having to restart Unidata?

In the MVX installation guide, within the Installing MVAdmin on Linux an AIX section, is a highlighted tip that readsAfter MVAdmin is installed, if you should ever need to edit the uvconfig file, for your changes to take effect, you will need to use the mvadmin command to stop andrestart the MVAdmin Service (after stopping and before restarting the UniVerse Resource Service).I have never seen anything that refers to the UniVerse Resource Service before, and can find nothing that resembles it in the UV 11.3.4 installation on RHEL8.It is mentioned only 4 times in the MVX installation guide - 2 times each within the MVAdmin installation notes for both Windows and Linux/AIX.Can anyone shed some light as to what it is and does?------------------------------Gregor ScottSoftware ArchitectPentana Solutions Pty LtdMount Waverley VIC AU------------------------------

Hello,We have a new build of unidata 8.2.1 on centos 7 and cannot connect via SBClient. When connecting, it does not ask for user credentials, it just gives us a "Session disconnected" message and quits. Has anyone seen this behavior? Any way to resolve this issue? ------------------------------Victoria LeeIS Support TechnicianEye Bank For Sight RestorationNew York NY US------------------------------

I am trying to restore some data from a backup.  The file itself and dictionary came over, but the X_file was not restored.  I could probably get it restored but it took a week for the IT department to get me this much so I'd like to just get rid of the index.  Prior to Unidata 8 I would fix this by creating an index file for any other file, and then I'd copy it over to X_file and that worked.  However, that doesn't work with Unidata 8.  DELETE.INDEX file ALL doesn't work because it says it can't open the file.  Is there any trick in Linux or Unidata that I could use to tell this file it shouldn't have to open the X_file to be able to retrieve the contents?------------------------------Kevin KingPresidentPrecision Solutions, Inc.Longmont CO US------------------------------
