#InterSystems IRIS for Health

InterSystems and Intel recently conducted a series of benchmarks combining InterSystems IRIS with 2nd Generation Intel® Xeon® Scalable Processors, also known as “Cascade Lake”, and Intel® Optane™ DC Persistent Memory (DCPMM). The goals of these benchmarks are to demonstrate the performance and scalability capabilities of InterSystems IRIS with Intel’s latest server technologies in various workload settings and server configurations. Along with various benchmark results, three different use-cases of Intel DCPMM with InterSystems IRIS are provided in this report.

Hi,

I created a BS with a SQL Inbound Adapter.

Query = "SELECT rowid, fname ,lname,datesent  
                   FROM labs
                   WHERE datesent IS NOT  NULL"

DeleteQuery = " update labs set datesent  =  Getdate() where rowid = ?"

KeyFieldName = "rowid"

i am getting the following errors.

"NOT assuming network disconnect error based on: Gateway failed: DropStatement."

"Skipping previously errored row '235'"

"Assuming network disconnect error based on: SQLState: (HY000) NativeError: [0] Message: [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 11.0]Connection is busy with results for another command"

Hi,

I have a production with a BS calling a BP calling another BP and so on and finally a BO. All calls are made using SendRequestSync.

The initial request is passed by value. The response is passed by ref and I allocate memory for it in the BO, hoping that it will go back to the initial caller in the BS, but it does not.

It looks like the following:

Dear Community,

Hello,

I've always worked with typical web applications (a bunch of code files that sit in a server that connects to an RDS). Now our team is responsible for different IRIS for Health environments. We are currently working to set up the local dev environment and this is the current scenario:

* IRIS for Health local development server is running in a container

* Developers are using VSCode with the objectScript plugin

* GitHub as a version control system for the code and configuration.

Hi Developers!

Another way to start using InterSystems ObjectScript Package Manager is to use prebuilt container images of InterSystems IRIS Community Edition and InterSystems IRIS for Health Community Edition.

We deploy this IRIS images on DockerHub and you can run it with the following command:

docker run --rm -p 52773:52773 --init --name my-iris -d intersystemsdc/iris-community:2019.4.0.383.0-zpm

Launch a terminal with:

docker exec -it my-iris iris session IRIS

And install zpm-module as:

USER>zpm 

zpm: USER>install objectscript-math

[objectscript-math] Reload START

[objectscript-math] Reload SUCCESS

[objectscript-math] Module object refreshed.

[objectscript-math] Validate START

[objectscript-math] Validate SUCCESS

[objectscript-math] Compile START

[objectscript-math] Compile SUCCESS

[objectscript-math] Activate START

[objectscript-math] Configure START

[objectscript-math] Configure SUCCESS

[objectscript-math] Activate SUCCESS

zpm: USER>

And use same commands for InterSystems IRIS for Health using the tag: intersystemsdc/irishealth-community:2019.4.0.383.0-zpm

The images are being published on IRIS Community Edition and IRIS Community Edition for Health repositories of Docker Hub.

We will update tags with every new release of IRIS and ZPM.

Happy coding!

I was searching for the most simple way to connect from visual studio code to my local instance via terminal without having to change any window.

I know this can also be achieved via telnet but seems a bit overhead if you're in your local machine.

For me the simplest sollution is to open a terminal window in VS Code, navigate to the /bin folder of your instance installation and run .\csession.exe INSTANCENAME

For simplicity you can just include your /bin folder in your path so you don't even need to navigate there

Hi,

I need to set the label of a custom setting in the portal instead of the name of the associated property, eg.:

Class SomeClass Extends (Ens.BusinessService, %ZEN.Portal.ContextSearch)

{

Property ABadPropertyNameToChange As %Boolean;

Parameter SETTINGS = "ABadPropertyNameToChange:CustomSettingsSection"
}

will result in this in the portal

InterSystems has corrected a defect that can result in skipping a transaction rollback. This can only occur after activation or addition of a mirrored database on a primary mirror member.

This problem exists for:

• Caché and Ensemble 2018.1.3
• InterSystems IRIS data platform 2019.1.1, 2019.3, and 2019.4
• InterSystems IRIS for Health 2019.1.1, 2019.3, and 2019.4

The conditions necessary for this defect to be triggered are quite specific. All of the following must apply:

Hi guys,

I thought I test the InterSystems IRIS for Health 2020.1, the Docker image. but for some reason, the container only lives for about 10 seconds and I can see from the message.log file that as soon as IRIS starts it then performs shutdown thus ending also container. Anyone else seen this?

Hi all,
I'm having issues with mounting custom database on top of IRISHealth 2019.1 docker container. Data gets mounted only in Read-only mode. This means read operations are successful but I couldn't make the image  with databases mounted  in Read/write, both modes. Is anyone having similar issue?

When reading %GlobalBinaryStream into a %String I am aware therte is a size limit of 3,6MB.

My question is since %Binary is underlying a %String is there a limit on this as well?

Can I safely read any size %GlobalBinaryStream into a %Binary?

Hi I am getting this message for some databases but not for others:  This database is mounted as read-only due to 'Failed to access iris.lck file'! and not for others on Google Cloud community non-health edition. 

For example this default database displays the message: Name    IRISLIB Directory    /usr/irissys/mgr/irislib/

But this default database does not:  Name    IRISSYS Directory    /ISC/dur/mgr/

hi,

Product: 

i am using a TCP Inbound  Adapter with call interval set to 5.

To my understanding this means that the adapter check to see if there any connections to the port every 5 seconds.

But i am getting error  "No Connection made on port 12123 within interval 5"

The sending application connections to the port happen at no specific interval, what are the recommended setting for call interval?.

Hi Developers!

Recently we published on Docker Hub images for InterSystems IRIS Community Edition and InterSystems IRIS Community for Health containers.

What is that?

There is a repository that publishes it, and in fact, it is the same container IRIS Community Edition containers you have on official InterSystems listing which have the pre-loaded ObjectScript Package Manager (ZPM) client.

So if you run this container with IRIS CE or IRIC CE for Health you can immediately start using ZPM and install packages from Community Registry or any others.

What does this mean for you?

It means, that anyone can deploy any of your InterSystems ObjectScript application in 3 commands:

• run IRIS container;
• open terminal;
• install your application as ZPM package.

It is safe, fast and cross-platform.

It's really handy if you want to test a new interesting ZPM package and not harm any of your systems.

Suppose, you have docker-desktop installed.  You can run the image, which wiil pull the latest container if you don't have it locally:

Hi Developers!

Many of you are looking for samples on how to work with InterSystems IRIS Analytics, formerly known as DeepSee.

There is a Samples BI module with Patients and Holefoods examples which is available on Github with source code. The installation steps are clear but take time. 

Recently we added the option to run IRIS Community Edition containers with ObjectScript Package Manager (ZPM) on board. This simplifies the installation to the "run-one-command" step for the modules submitted to ZPM Community Registry. And thus we can benefit the Samples BI installation with ZPM.

And here is how you can run it on your laptop.  Let's go!

Hello,

I have a record map and batch class being passed to an EnsLib.RecordMap.Operation.BatchFileOperation.

They are designated as INFORMATION.FPL.Record and INFORMATION.FPL.Header

After reaching the operation it errors out with this message : ERROR <Ens>ErrGeneral: Quitting with error on Message body 5@INFORMATION.FPL.Record / 54 because Status 'ERROR <EnsRecordMap>ErrNoBatchParent: Record with class 'INFORMATION.FPL.Record' and Id '54' doesn't belong to a batch' matched ReplyCodeAction 1 : 'E=F' resulting in Action code F

Some screen grabs are attached of my configuration.

I'm currently working with a developer to add IRIS/Caché functionality to his HL7 analysis tool that would allow its users to extract messages directly from the Ensemble message store. IRIS for Health Community Edition has been a great aid in debugging this, but I keep banging into the 5 connection license limit with Studio, the Management Portal, an IRIS terminal session and a client database connection using either ODBC or ADO.NET. I end up having to close or log off something to be able to continue testing, and in some cases terminate processes that remain open (possibly the fault of the

Hi,

My customer is implementing HL7 validation using EnsLib.HL7.Util.Validator.Validate in an HL7 production.
They set validation spec "dmr-z" because they want to allow unrecognized Z-segments and verify the presence of required fields.
Despite using "-z", Z-segments are not allowed and the following error occurs:
<Ens> ErrGeneral: Cannot validate segment schemas without a category.Unable to validate segment 8: ZPR.
Aside to that, when the verification spec is “dm-z”, the Z-segment is allowed as expected.
Can 't "r" and "-z" be used together? 
Is there any other way to implement both validations?
