    Question Alternate Hits in promon still zero

    I'm not surprised that your alternate hits are currently zero, since you enabled the feature online. If blocks of the assigned objects were already in the primary buffer pool at the time of the assignments, any subsequent accesses would count as primary hits, since those blocks are on the LRU...

    Progress OpenEdge 11.7 and RHEL7 with symbolic links

    It's not clear from that what procedure you attempted or what problem you encountered.

    Progress OpenEdge 11.7 and RHEL7 with symbolic links

    How are you going to create these databases; probkup and prorest? If so, you could just put modified structure files in the target location (/db/env/whatever) so that the data, AI, and BI extents will go in the location where you have more space. Then restore the databases and you will have...

    printer

    What does "the command" mean?

    printer

    This doesn't make sense to me. I don't understand how you can have a receipt "linked by a USB cable". Maybe use more than one sentence.

    OpenEdge Management - Database - Performance Summary view

    I'll add that temp-table operations aren't necessarily memory operations, when the TT data grows large enough that it is no longer entirely memory-resident. This transition can lead to sudden and severe application perfomance problems. Doubly so when the session temporary directory (-T) is...

    printer

    Then do that repeatedly? ;) Or spawn a process to print to each one. Or make an asynchronous App Server call to print to each one.

    OpenEdge Management - Database - Performance Summary view

    In OE 11.0+ there are VSTs for temp-tables. https://docs.progress.com/bundle/openedge-abl-troubleshoot-applications-122/page/Supported-virtual-system-tables-for-temp-tables.html You'll have to write your own code to collect and parse this data. <shameless plug> The free download of ProTop...

    Can you currently print to one printer?

    For example: // high buffer hit ratio! (false positive) do while true: for each tinytable no-lock: end. end.

    is developer studio part of the standard openedge package or a paid add-on ?

    There is no such thing as "the standard OpenEdge package". There is a price list with various OpenEdge products and product components; PDSOE (Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge) is one of those. You get whichever products you pay for. You can run %DLC%\bin\showcfg to list the products...

    looking for a comprehensive guide to character progress form / frame statements.

    Older versions of the product documentation may be helpful, if you can find them. I vaguely recall the v6 manuals (black/red cover) had a good, approachable treatment of this stuff, and of course at the time CHUI was the only UI paradigm. Have you looked at the 9.1E documentation? You can...

    OpenEdge enhancement request portal

    I second that. I have requested many OpenEdge enhancements via the Ideas portal, and upvoted others' ideas, and it is very gratifying to see them get into the product. Having said that, some ideas languish there. An idea may be worthy but, because of a small pool of participants on the...

    Progress editor

    That's non-trivial. It will be relatively straightforward to enable OE Auditing, assuming familiarity with the documentation. As with many other database features, there are OE Auditing best and worst practices and that is a lengthy (and separate) discussion topic. You can find some of that...

    Secret Server

    Sorry I can't help you further, but I'd say just follow basic change-management best practices. A and B worked. B changed. A stopped working. There's a very good chance that the change in B broke A. So revert the change to B. Don't let infrastructure tell you that it's a Progress problem.

    Secret Server

    I don't have any idea what "Secret Server" is or does, or where it runs in relation to your OpenEdge installation. The first thing I would do is ask the infrastructure team about their fallback plan for the upgrade. They should execute it. If they fall back to the previous version...

    What is the perceived risk that this action would mitigate? This is an incomplete thought. I don't know what you are trying to say or ask. Please clarify. Clearly, however, it would be foolish for someone to suggest preventing a DBA from having shell access on a database server. That...
