OD/WEK & JAVA API / Re: Setup User Access Using ODWEK API

« on: May 25, 2017, 10:35:46 AM »

Not much of an ODWEK guru...but..

Could you take the request from the broker, and pass it to an ARSXML command via shell script..and then execute the script?

Not aware of a way to do this with arsxml, I am pretty sure that won't work.

I would do a retrieve, and then arsload to load them back up. Shouldn't be that bad.

How many objects, GB/TB of data are you working with?

MP Server / Adding PPD's to a PDF file

« on: May 17, 2017, 07:03:31 AM »

Greetings all, I am wondering if anyone has ever used the feature of arspdoci where you could add PPD's to a PDF file.

I have a large PDF file and I want to test something with it. Looking for the details of the command, as well as what the input file should look like.

Thanks in advance!

MP Server / Re: Large .txt file with No indexing

« on: May 11, 2017, 06:28:20 AM »

Just out of curiosity, how many pages long is this report?  The largest single report I've seen was 80,000 pages -- and they used to print that monster out every week! 

One of my past projects we would load a massive text file weekly, I think it was 200k+ pages of numbers, indexing with a date trigger and a floating trigger on one of the line items. It would take DAYS to index. Half the time it wouldn't even load. I can't imagine retrieval. I went to my friend on the business side of the house and he even told me .."Nobody is going to retrieve this"

I've also seen 50k+ metacode files that would be converted from Xerox, to AFP, then to PDF, at load time. This was not fun, especially when I had to migrate from Xenos to AFP2PDF. Ironically, Xenos loaded it way faster! It would take maybe 2 hours to index with Xenos, but with the whole new "Conversion process/Integration" it would 5-6 hours if not longer. Fun times.

Just wondering if anyone knows if this exam will be replaced with a newer version, before I fork out the $200 to take it.  Thanks

MP Server / Re: Add field to AG via ARSXML

« on: March 14, 2017, 07:45:34 PM »

Thanks Nolan.

I was able to accomplish this. What I did was quite simple and has a great amount of portability. I dissected the ondemand.xsd file, and played with it a few times until I got the results that I wanted.

MP Server / Re: Add field to AG via ARSXML

Here is what I am trying to do, again sorry for any confusion.

I have an application group with a field defined. Under mapping I have four "dropdowns.." setup (4 displayed values each with their database values..)

I want to add additional displayed values / db values to this field.

Is this possible with ARSXML?

You tried the escape charaters? 

Code: [Select]

& # 47 ;  - remove the spaces.

Thanks for the quick response. A bit confused at what you're asking. Can you possibly clarify a bit?

thanks.

MP Server / Add field to AG via ARSXML

« on: March 13, 2017, 11:55:27 AM »

Greetings all,

I am trying to add some a new field to an Application Group via ARSXML. A field that has a database value / displayed value (Trying to add a dropdown to a folder, without having to use the admin client..)

Is this possible to do? I've tried several scenarios and cannot get it to work.

Thanks in advance

MP Server / Re: question regarding Application Groups in multiple folders

« on: February 10, 2017, 07:53:46 AM »

Hi Michel,

I remember doing something like this a few yaers ago..A db2 query against the folder, that matched up with the AGID of the app group. But .. I think that this can be done by scripting/perl with ARSXML..I've thought of this for a while just never had the time to do it.

Please chime in everyone!

General / Re: Soon leaving the CMOD world

« on: August 25, 2016, 05:34:27 AM »

Hello everybody,

Just a small message to tell you that after nearly 18 years of CMOD experiences, I will change completely my professional orientation.
And I will do something else than CMOD completely.
In nearly one month, I will leave my current job (CMOD specialist at IBM) and most probably, I will stop coming in this forum...

I would like to thank you for all the nice tips and tricks I have learned :-) I am happy to have helped some of you :-)
I am really thankful to Geoff Wilde and Justin for having open this place of sharing :-) And I hope CMOD will last forever!!!

That was a good ride :-)
So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish

best of luck to you, you've helped me a bunch of times on various installation/configuration/post-installation issues over my short 6 year CMOD career.

MP Server / Re: CMOD upgrade to 9.5

Yeah, using multiple instances of arsload to get concurrent loads to Application Groups running is a great idea.

Even if you don't want one arsload thread for each Application Group, you can still run arsload with multiple -d parameters to 'group' different directories into queues.

I too have also seen this done extremely efficiently.
