Technical Articles Announcing DLT4000/DLT7000 Differential Tape Support on MPE/IX Announcing DLT4000/DLT7000 Differential Tape Support on MPE/IX by Larry Nichoalds, CSY Labs Jim Hawkins, SSD WTEC Beginning with Release 5.
Technical Articles Announcing DLT4000/DLT7000 Differential Tape Support on MPE/IX Physical connection of these devices is accomplished via “Fast/Wide/Differential SCSI” Cables such as C2911A, C2924A, C2925A etc. NOTE While DLT Libraries are available for purchase, support for these devices is very limited on HP3000 S900 systems. There are currently no plans for supporting the DLT Libraries for “normal” MPE/iX operations such as BOOT, FCOPY or STORE.
Technical Articles Announcing DLT4000/DLT7000 Differential Tape Support on MPE/IX IMPORTANT Tapes created on a DLT4000 can always be read by the DLT7000; however, DLT4000 drives are not capable of reading tapes created on DLT7000s. Since both drives use the same physical media type, shops with a mixture of DLT types will have to manage media created on DLT7000 separately so as not to attempt to read it on a DLT4000.
Technical Articles Announcing DLT4000/DLT7000 Differential Tape Support on MPE/IX Configuration Here is an example of what the configuration should look like on the HP3000 for the DLT4000 and DLT7000.

Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC HP Driver for JDBC Shu-Feng Wei Commercial Systems Division Java Database Connectivity (JDBC) is a Java API that enables development of Java applications and applets with a wide range of relational databases. It consists of a set of classes and interfaces written in Java. JDBC allows developers to write database applications using a standard, pure Java API.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC HP JDBC Components There are three components supplied with the HP JDBC product, the JDBC Driver, the JDBC Monitor, and the JDBC Server. The user is responsible for writing a Java application or applet that uses JDBC on the client, as well as providing the ALLBASE/SQL or IMAGE/SQL database on the server. • The HP Driver for JDBC is a set of Java classes that implement the java.sql.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC MPE/iX Server Requirements The HP JDBC Server components require MPE/iX version 6.0 or greater. MPE/iX components are only required if your JDBC Server platform is the MPE/iX operating system. ALLBASE/SQL or IMAGE/SQL Requirements The HP JDBC Server components require an ALLBASE/SQL G3.01 or IMAGE/SQL G3.00 or greater.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC Extracting the HP Driver for JDBC Class Files The HP Driver for JDBC class files must be installed in your Java class path so that the Java compiler and the Java class loader can find them. Example on the Win32 Platform CLASSPATH=C:\JDK1.1.4\LIB;. You would then install the HP Driver for JDBC class files in the directory: C:\JDK1.1.4\LIB\ Example on HP 3000 CLASSPATH=/usr/local/java/latest/lib:.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC The next set of lines are the LOGGING levels used to determine the type of information to be logged to the server log file. The meanings of the various logging levels are discussed in the Troubleshooting Section, under “Server Logging” of the HP Driver for JDBC User’s Manual. The server configuration file is read in each time a new server process is started. Thus once the file is edited and saved, the changes will take place beginning with the next server process.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC The only time the monitor should ever be brought down is to install a newer version. In this case, use the JSTOPMON stream job or ABORTJOB command to kill the monitor process. The ABORTJOB command to shut down the monitor is: : ABORTJOB #JXX where XX is the job number. To restart the monitor after it was shut down or accidentally terminated, use the JSTRTMON stream job to start it up. : STREAM JSTRTMON.JDBC.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC It shows how to use a dialog box to obtain user input, and also formats the result set output a lot better. The first step to using the sample client is to build it by compiling the Java source code. Normally, you would do this by using the Java compiler command (the command you use may be different, depending on your JDK): NOTE If you are using JDK1.2.1 or later, add the following line in SampleClient.java before the call to class.forName: DriveManager.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC uid Server host userid that is authorized to access the database. pwd Server host password that matches the user id provided above. trace Optional trace values separated by the vertical bar “|” character. For more information on tracing, see the Troubleshooting section. NOTE This connection method may result in the user name and password being logged in various places, as URLs are commonly logged on various web servers and proxy servers.

Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC could result in a java.lang.NumberFormatException being shown when the conversion is performed. Again, the application developer should take the necessary precautions. Unsupported ALLBASE/SQL Data Types The ALLBASE LONG BINARY, and LONG VARBINARY data types are currently not supported by the HP Driver for JDBC. Acceptable SQL Syntax The HP JDBC Server will accept either ODBC SQL statement syntax or ALLBASE/SQL statement syntax.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC Stored Procedures The HP Driver for JDBC supports the following types of ALLBASE/SQL stored procedures through the java.sql.CallableStatement interface: 1. Procedures that return one or more result sets. 2. Procedures that take one or more input arguments. 3. Procedures that return one or more output arguments. 4. Procedures that have a return status value.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC OBJECT Include the object hash code in the format HHHHHHHH on all tracing output lines where HHHHHHHH is the eight digit hexadecimal value of the hash code. This information appears in the first column of the tracing output. THREAD Include the executing thread name on all tracing output lines. This information appears as the fourth column of the tracing output. DEBUG Trace debugging statements from the driver.
Technical Articles HP Driver for JDBC affect performance. TIMESTAMP This causes each log entry to be prefaced by a timestamp of the form HH:MM:SS.mmm. WARNING Turns on logging of warning messages generated by the Server. ERROR Turns on logging of error messages generated by the Server. FATAL This is the same as specifying INFO, WARNING, and ERROR. DEBUG Turns on logging of a lot of debugging messages. This should only be done at the request of support personnel.
Technical Articles Java Developers Kit for MPE/iX Version 1.1.7B Release Notes Java Developers Kit for MPE/iX Version 1.1.7B Release Notes by Gavin Scott Allegro Consultants, Inc. SIG Java Co-Chairperson for Interex This release of the Java Developer’s Kit (JDK) for MPE/iX includes support for the 1.1.7B version of Sun’s JDK, along with significant improvements to the MPE/iX implementation. Highlights of this release relative to version 1.1.5 which shipped with MPE/iX 6.
Technical Articles Java Developers Kit for MPE/iX Version 1.1.7B Release Notes applications will immediately start using it. You can keep as many releases of the JDK on the system as you like. Those releases other than the one pointed to by the /latest/ symbolic link will have to be referred to through a path that includes the version number, or in some other fashion. For example, you could create your own symbolic link in the shell as follows: $ ln -s /usr/local/java/jdk1.1.

Technical Articles Java Developers Kit for MPE/iX Version 1.1.7B Release Notes Performance Improvements and Resource Requirement Reductions With 1.1.7B, several improvements were made to the MPE/iX implementation to reduce the resources required for each instance of the Java Virtual Machine, and to reduce the amount of time and overhead required to start a VM. These changed have resulted in the elimination of approximately half of the start-up overhead. Here is a summary of differences between 1.1.5 and 1.
Technical Articles Java Developers Kit for MPE/iX Version 1.1.7B Release Notes • At start-up, the VM will determine what ;NMSTACK= value is in effect, and will allow allocation of as many thread stacks as will fit within this limit. When the limit is exceeded, an OutOfMemoryException will be thrown. The default ;NMSTACK= value of 2MB for the POSIX shell means that approximately three threads can be created before a larger ;NMSTACK= will need to be specified by the user.
Technical Articles Java Developers Kit for MPE/iX Version 1.1.7B Release Notes Heap Changes The default minimum heap (java -ms option) has been changed from 64MB to 256KB in version 1.1.7B. The default maximum value is still set to 64MB, which is under the 80,000,000 byte system default ;NMHEAP= limit and thus does not involve the problems of ;NMSTACK=.
Technical Articles Java Developers Kit for MPE/iX Version 1.1.7B Release Notes • The shell reads /usr/local/java/jdk1.1.7/bin/javac, which is a symbolic link to /usr/local/java/jdk1.1.5/bin/.java_wrapper, which is a symbolic link to: /usr/local/java/jdk1.1.5/bin/PA-RISC/green_threads/JAVA, which is the new do-everything Java executable. The shell forks and execs this program. • The /usr/local/java/jdk1.1.5/bin/PA-RISC/green_threads/JAVA program internally performs the functions of the old .

Technical Articles ALLBASE/BRW JCWs for Year 2000 ALLBASE/BRW JCWs for Year 2000 by Kelly Sznaider Support Technology Lab For year 2000 compliance, two JCWs were created in earlier versions of BRW. However, the defaults of these JCWs have been changed as of version A.01.57. As year 2000 rapidly approaches, it is strongly recommended to use four-digit years instead of two-digits. If four-digit years are used in your files and databases, then these BRW JCWs can be ignored.
Technical Articles ALLBASE/BRW JCWs for Year 2000 • If set to 0, a date range of 1900 - 1999 is assumed for all two-digit years in data files. BRWUSERCENTURYROUNDING The following apply to BRWUSERCENTURYROUNDING: • If BRWCENTURYROUNDING is set to 0, then this JCW is examined. • If set to 1 (or not set), a date range of 1950 - 2049 is assumed for all two-digit years in parameter values and for date constants appearing in calculated items or selection conditions. (This JCW excludes data files.
