    Regain control when #maxusers is reached

    Hi All, I'm faced here with a "frozen" database that I try to regain control on. Progress 10.1c02, server started with: $DLC/bin/proserve /mfg/data/db2/mfgprod -N TCP -H nlalm1mfg01 -S qaddb_prd -Mm 32600 -L 200000 -c 350 -B 80000 -bibufs 96 -n 240 -spin 16000 -Mf 60 -Mxs 32000 -aibufs 144...

    Desperate help needed for a legacy db

    Hi Rayford, I don't know about any Windows tools that will copy a HP disk remotely. If you just want to keep the data, look at Tom's post about getting headers. He's giving very valuable hints. However. Using the "dd" command on the HP box, you can copy the contents of the harddisk to file...

    Errr... Sorry guys :blush: I overlooked the fact that the thread is ancient and kind of died 7 years ago. I'll leave it at that, sorry for the noise. Gmail is good enough. Willem

    I like being a Smart*ss, sorry ;) This is where RBL and reverse DNS can do a marvellous job. The checks are done before the message gets accepted by the system, because filtering is done based on sender IP. This stops about 95 ~ 98% of spam at the front door, before bandwidth gets burnt. Feel...

    Batch processing

    In programs that support batch CIM delete, there is a hidden field. So, when you want to delete through CIM, you put an "X" in there and the program will delete for you. The field can be made visible by setting "batchrun=true" before invoking the program, see this example for Account...

    Batch processing

    To my knowledge there is no batch-delete facility in Purchase Orders. Also, I wouln't delete orderlines directly using progress either, I expect that would make your MRP go crazy. Anyone any better ideas?

    Hi Chris, Thanks for the reply, the reason is obvious :-) Running a mailserver nowadays isn't an easy task anymore. I find the use of RBL's (realtime blacklists) and reverse DNS very useful, Spamassassin is a great help too, but some rubbish always trickles through. Good luck, Willem

    Oh, I'd like to have a mail account here :-) Yet, I'm also running into the 403 error, Access Forbidden. When I tried to go to https://mail.progresstalk.com, a Microsoft page turned up (maybe a default for the webserver?).

    23.2 Regenerate Materials Plan

    Seems to me that the TERM environment variable hasn't been set. What is the output of echo $TERM ? You can try TERM=xterm; export TERM before starting the batch. In our start scripts we use this to make sure it is set: # # Set terminal type. # if [ ${TERM:-NULL} = NULL ] then echo echo...

    Setting up EDI in MFG/PRO 9.0

    EDI is very complex to set up, with multiple layers where one format is converted/transformed to another. I suggest getting an expert for this job, it's not something that can be done overnight.

    Mirror Accounting

    Hello Mokash, This is what I retrieved from our system (eB2.1), standard help. I couldn't find it in our documentation, but the help explains it well enough. We actually use mirror accounting ourselves. I hope this helps. Willem Use Mirror Table Maintenance to define source and mirror...

    Code / CPU cycles

    Eh... Tom, thanks :blush1: I already brushed the article, but tried to find a quick solution. I'll start reading and put in some labor (figure out how and where to hook it into our system). Sorry for being a lazy bum :cool:

    Code / CPU cycles

    Dear all, Is there an alternative to the -yx startup parameter for clients? I want to investigate which programs in our MFG/Pro system eat the most CPU time. However, -yx includes idle time (where the system is waiting for user input -who's gone away for coffee-). I'd like to find the real...

    Find table/record based on transaction id

    The problem is solved. The cause was a Progress bug, OE00170971. A hangup signal could leave a transaction open, thus causing the BI to start growing. The solution was to upgrade to OpenEdge 10.1C02. We are using it for 2 months now and I haven't seen the BI growth issue since :D

    OpenEdge 10.1C02 performance

    Hi Tom, Thanks for suggesting nmon, I'll ask our sysadmin to get it for me. You're right about the B05 version, it was actually B03 :blush:. And yes, it's a pity I didn't collect historical data. Until B03 there seemed no reason to monitor performance, I just had a look every now and then. I...

    OpenEdge 10.1C02 performance

    Dear All, Does anyone have experience with Progress OE10.1C02 vs. OE10.1B05 on Linux? We had to upgrade, because B05 could leave transactions open under certain circumstances. Another thing that was changed was our operating system. We were on RHEL 3 and had to upgrade to RHEL 5.3 (because of...

    Numerical to Character format

    Ah, this is probably silly Excel trying to interpret the partnumbers as real numbers. When when importing from File -> Open, you can set the format of the column to "text". Otherwise I'd try to surround the item number with quotes in your output. HTH, Willem.
