5.8.4 on AIX 6.1

We handle 200KB+ uuencoded Muse content without problem.

A TPS Inbound Data  proc  extracts the uuencoded content from the ZPD segment, regsubs the “\X0D\\X0A\” strings to “n”, converts the HL7 escape sequences (that’s actually a little tricky) and then execs uudecode.

I can send you the code if you’re interested.

Apologies for any ambiguities in the use of the term “cluster”. I was referring to high availability, two-node, active/passive clusters.  If anyone has implemented cloverleaf on a (to me) more complex load-balancing cluster (with high availability), I would be interested to know more about your configuration.

Chas,

If you are on a unix platform you should be able to run tcpdump and observe exactly watch is happening on the socket.

Sometimes a “bad” transaction will cause the receiving application to shutdown/disconnect the socket. This is very easy to observe/prove with the output of tcpdump. If the receiving application sends a tcp socket disconnect packet/message back to cloverleaf immediately after receiving the transaction that Cloverleaf sent to it, that sequence of events should be apparent in the output of tcpdump. You can then send a screen scrape to the vendor and ask why their application is doing that.

Our Advanced Security Server runs on a Windows 2003 server so it goes down once a month for patching. There is no disruption to running interfaces but there is no IDE activity allowed during the outages.

[Bob Moriarty]

We are not using https. Outside access to Global Monitor, if ever required, would go through a user’s VPN connection and use a remote desktop app. Remote developers and oncall folks haven’t had a need for GM.

We are on AIX 6.1.

The data center folks have not complained about any timeouts. And they know my number. 😀

We’ve had Global Monitor in place with 5.8.4 for a couple of months. Primarily got it to help the data center folks keep an eye on lots of new sites. Another benefit is that it allows a group of non-Cloverleafers to investigate, edit and replay SMAT transactions. Other groups can check out and stop/start the interfaces to their non-production applications. A very small group is setup to check a few production interfaces after monthly patching of their applications.

It’s a web-based app so there is no client installation – that’s nice. I wish its security worked with Cloverleaf’s advanced security. Instead, a user’s certificate and key need to be stored on the Global Monitor server.

Jim,

I’d be curious to see what tcpdump shows.

[Bob Moriarty]

I am experiencing the same problem when the Security Server (a Win 2008 VM) reboots. It appears there is a newer hcihostid.exe that is part of the 5.8.4 (and maybe earlier) patch. The newer exe returns the same host ID after a reboot.

[Bob Moriarty]

Thanks Jim.

Thanks Jim.

Short and sweet!   😀

I should have caught the missing bracket. I over-focused on the :  😯

Jim,

You wrote

Quote:

set var [string map

$var

That hangs

Code:

tcl>set var ” qwe < asd ”
qwe < asd
tcl>set var [string map [list ” < " : less than "] $var

This also hangs:

Code:

tcl>set var ” qwe < asd ”
qwe < asd
tcl>set var [string map [list ” < " " less than "] $var

[Bob Moriarty]

Russ,

Thanks for all the info.

AIx’s HACMP design is different than VMware’s HA.

I’m still curious about how the hcihostid is derived on AIX.

Russ,

I don’t think there’s a host serial number in the Intel world.

Code:

uname -a
Linux clovertestl.mayo.edu 2.6.9-89.0.9.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Aug 19 08:07:15 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

I’d be curious what

Code:

lscfg -vl ent0

shows on your AIX host.
