Alert: Dynamic file corruption may occur on UV 11.1 on AIX due to device numbers being returned as non unique values
|
Two files on different file systems might be assigned the same inode number, but within a given file system the assigned inode number would be a unique value. When the device number for a file system is not returned as a unique value, two files on different file systems might be treated by UniVerse as the same file.

Alert: I-type Index calling BASIC subroutine may result in unreleased record locks
|
At UniVerse Release 11.1.0, under a specific set of conditions an active record lock will incorrectly remain locked when the record is written. This can occur when an I-type Index which calls a BASIC subroutine exists on the UniVerse file AND the BASIC subroutine performs WRITE operations to UniVerse files.

|
Alert: Index using PICK style correlative containing a translate may result in file corruption
|
At UniVerse Release 11.1.0, creating an Index on a UniVerse file based on a PICK style dictionary item containing a correlative may result in file corruption. If the correlative performs a translate to another UniVerse file, corruption may occur in the primary file when records are written. Another symptom which may occur is that records may be written to the incorrect group and then be unable to be read.

Performance of UniData Record Locking Degraded at Release 7.2.0
|
Starting with UniData version 7.2.0, the number of record locks that can be set and released per second in a high-volume multi-process test is significantly lower than on previous UniData versions. Depending on your UniData application architecture, you may observe record locking performance degradation compared to your experience on prior releases

At UniVerse 10.3, modifications made to the new.record contents in a trigger subroutine are not applied when the WRITE completes.
|
When using a BEFORE UPDATE or INSERT trigger on a file where the trigger subroutine modifies the new.record contents (i.e. argument 7), the modified contents of new.record are not applied when the record is written. One situation where this technique can be used is for audit purposes by adding a timedate stamp of when the record was last updated. The issue described below exists at UniVerse Release 10.3.0 and above.

How to download U2 products using Electronic Software Delivery
|
Most current versions of U2 products are available for Electronic Software Delivery (ESD) using HTTP. U2 Business Partners can request U2 GOLD Masters using the U2BusinessConnect (U2BC) feature on the U2TechConnect web page. Direct end users (DEU) can request their U2 products directly from the U2BC team at u2bc@us.ibm.com.
When the request is first entered, if there is a problem with the request, or if the customer is a direct enduser, an email showing the request is Pending will be sent. Once a request has been entered, a partner in good standing will receive two emails from the U2BC system :
1 - a Customer Confirmation, which includes a link to the web for authorizations,
2 - the FTP Fulfillment, which includes the link to the web for downloading the requested product(s) using HTTP.

Impact of Changes to Daylight Savings Time (DST) in U.S. and Canada
|
In March 2007, the effective dates of DST in the U.S. and Canada will change. Sun has announced that older versions of its Java Runtime Environment (JRE) need to be modified to correctly handle these changes. IBM U2 Web DE and IBM U2 data server Clients currently ship with older versions of the JRE . No issues exist with the U2 Clients or U2 Web DE as they do not call time functions. However, user-created Java� applications that use an older JRE may be affected. This document describes the changes, the impact and what actions may be taken to address any concerns.
IBM U2 data servers (UniData and UniVerse) and other tools and components, including SystemBuilder and wIntegrate, are not affected as they do not ship a JRE nor do they make calls to any time functions from a JRE.

Changes to the way licenses are consumed when running phantoms
|
Due to the increasing use of APIs which allow PHANTOMS to interactively solicit user input, we have implemented changes to the way licenses are consumed.
The original intent of PHANTOM licenses as for background processing such as batch file updates, report generation and other similar forms of processing where user intervention was not required. In fact, PHANTOMs will abort if they encounter an INPUT statement. However, with the introduction of the CallHTTP and Sockets interfaces as well as support for secure Sockets, XML, MQ and SOAP in recent versions of UniVerse and UniData, PHANTOMs now have the ability to interactively obtain user input without consuming a database license. This negatively impacts the U2 business and is not consistent with our competitors as they either impose limits or charge for PHANTOM licenses.

How do I authorize UniData
|
After installing or upgrading UniData, or making system changes after installing UniData, a temporary license is enabled. This temporary license allows you to run UniData for a limited time until you are able to authorize it. The temporary license period varies depending on the version of UniData: 3.3.2 - 5 days, 4.0/4.1 - 10 days, 5.0 and higher, and UniData on NT - 30 days. During this grace period, you can run UniData but you will need to authorize it in order to continue using it beyond the temporary license period.
This Technote explains the procedure for generating a configuration code, receiving an authorization code, and authorizing UniData.
