MP Server / TSM expiration vs CMOD expiration

« on: December 03, 2018, 12:25:54 PM »

Have a question, I think I know the answer

We have a TSM storage set labeled FOREVER that never expires on the TSM side.

For some reason, the expiration for all CMOD app groups that use that storage set is set to 180 days, which is incorrect. Per business requirement, these documents need to be held for 8 years, or 2920 days.

We currently stopped all deletions/purges done via arsmaint, we were running arsmaint -cdeirm (we removed -c and -d) until we figure out requirements on all of our application groups.

My question is this-

IF TSM is set to NEVER expire, but CMOD is set to 180 days, which one does it listen to?

My next question will depend on the answer to that   thanks in advance!

General / C2070-985 Withdrawn

« on: November 26, 2018, 07:26:10 AM »

Hello all,

I see that C2070-985 was withdrawn in March of this year.

Does anyone know if this test is going to be replaced with a test for 9.5 or 10.1

MP Server / Indication of 8.4 to 8.5

« on: October 31, 2018, 01:34:58 PM »

It has been a while since I've seen this but I am curious. Is this following statement accurate? Was the CMOD version / OS / DB added in 8.5 or a patch of 8.5?

V8.5.0.6-
arsload: Processing file >/arsacif/acif1/File.ARD<
arsload: Load Version <8.5.0.6> Operating System <AIX> <5.3>
arsload: Server Version <8.5.0.6> Operating System <AIX> <5.3> Database <DB2> <09.07.0005>
arsload: 02/23/13 23:23:01 -- Indexing started, 278760 bytes to process

V8.4 (Or Older..)
arsload: Processing file >/arsacif/acif1/File.ARD<
 
arsload: 02/23/13 22:24:52 -- Indexing started, 1069012 bytes to process

MP Server / TSM Question - Upgrades?

« on: October 31, 2018, 01:32:35 PM »

Is there any way to see when we upgraded to a certain version of TSM? Might there be anything in the CMOD system logs?

MP Server / TSM 5.5 Question

« on: October 31, 2018, 01:07:04 PM »

Heres a weird one-

Does anyone know which version of CMOD shipped with TSM 5.5? Was it 8.4.0.x?

Other / IER/P8 + CMOD

« on: May 08, 2018, 11:43:24 AM »

Has anyone used IER on top of P8, with ERM running on top of CMOD?


Looking for some use cases/examples

Thanks

Other / TSM MAXTHREADS

« on: April 05, 2018, 10:14:17 AM »

Not directly CMOD, but as part of our TSM system we are using TSM

If we increase MAXTHREADS on TSM Server to 50, do we have to increase max threads on the DR backup TSM server? I assume yes

MP Server / Large Migration + Codepage

« on: February 15, 2018, 08:57:22 AM »

I am going to be migrating a system from 8.5 AIX to 10.1 Linux over the next few weeks...both DB2..our 8.5 uses TSM, and the 10.1 storage set is probably going to be cloud object storage.

I stood up the V10.1 environment with the proper codepage (1208 per the documentation). We are using 923 in 8.5..I am wondering if we can still migrate due to the differences in codepage

When I say migrate, I mean do a db2move, move over all tables, TSM, etc. Also, if our old version of TSM will give us issues..which I have a feeling it might.

Would a retrieve/load be easier?

MP Server / 65/226 Message logging -- excessive

« on: February 01, 2018, 11:49:12 AM »

Hi all,

I was part of a major issue a few years ago on 8.4 where we had 65 and 226 messages turned on for every app group in production. It caused slowness and crazy instability. I believe there was a tech note for this, or it may have been a PMR we opened.

does anyone have more information on this? We are logging 100k+ a day

Does anyone remember what version of TSM was included with 8.5? I think it was 8.5, but i could be wrong.

Anyone remember?

MP Server / return date field as mm/dd/yy

« on: January 04, 2018, 01:08:19 PM »

Hi All, I have the most simple sql query ever I am writing to a file

select policy, rdate from ada1

as expected, rdate is being returned in the 5 digit date format. Is there any SIMPLE way to do this on the fly, that doesnt require me from writing a stored procedure

What I have:

db2 => select policy, rdate from ada1

POLICY                                             RDATE
-------------------------------------------------- ------

I am working with the imexit.c, which is included in cmod.

Started off by doing gcc indexexnf imexit.c to compile. Then I send a file through. Without the exit being referenced in the index params, it works fine.

Other / ARSLOAD fails when calling exit

« on: November 06, 2017, 07:05:16 AM »

Heres a weird one, couldnt figure out a better spot to put it..

All my application groups use a custom exit. Not sure what it does, not a C dev, and I dont think theres any left sadly here.

We run a basic ARSLOAD daemon as root..when a file comes in it loads, the exit is called, and everything loads fine.

When I try issuing arsload -nvf -g appgroup filename   <--I get an 88 record indicating the exit couldnt execute. The same thing happens with sudo.

Any thoughts on this? Does my question make sense?

Report Indexing / AFP Resources / Directorys

« on: October 31, 2017, 07:10:00 AM »

First install here working with AFP2PDF conversion on retrieval, bear with me

On our CMOD server, we have the following information in the indexer information for our applications-

On the CMOD Server-

RESTYPE=ALL
FORMDEF=F113NG41, etc..
PAGEDEF=P1NG500X, etc..
FDEFLIB=/usr/lpp/psf/fdeflib
PDEFLIB=/usr/lpp/psf/pdeflib
PSEGLIB=/usr/lpp/psf/pseglib
FONTLIB=/usr/lpp/psf/fontlib
OVLYLIB=/usr/lpp/psf/ovlylib

On the ODWEK server,

ResourceDataPath=/opt/ondemand/afp2pdf/reslib
;Font_Path=/opt/ondemand/afp2pdf/font
Font_Path=/prod/apps/odwek/afp2pdf/font

what is the point of having the libraries for the fonts/resources listed in the indexing settings, if we are using the resources/fonts defined in afp2pdf? In my prior gig, I don't remember seeing those options in our app settings for afp. There was much less coding required in the application. That was converted to PDF via XENOS at retrieval though.
