SOFTWARE NOTES:
o Fast Track (convft)
---------------------
If you use the convft utility to convert your database to a
Fast Track database, you must set the PROEXE enviornment
variable first:
PROEXE=/usr/dlc/_progres;export PROEXE
convft database-name
o REMOTE ORACLE GATEWAY
---------------------
While using the remote ORACLE gateway, if you press
CTRL-C during a transaction, you are disconnected from
the remote ORACLE server.
o PROBUILD
--------
When running PROBUILD, the $PROLOAD/eucapp/euc.pl file must
have at least read and write permissions (rw-rw-rw-),
otherwise you will get the error:
** Cannot find or open euc.pl errno 13
To avoid tihs error, change the permissions on the euc.pl
file as follows:
chmod 666 $PROLOAD/eucapp/euc.pl
where $PROLOAD is an environment variable set to where
you have the dlcload directory installed - /usr/dlcload
by default.
o You can now use PROBUILD to build an executable with a
remote gateway configurable element. For example,
if you need to access a remote Oracle database, just
select your networking protocols and REMOTE ORACLE
GATEWAY at the CONFIGURABLE ELEMENTS screen.
o PROREST Utility
===============
Restoring an incremental backup out of sequence will cause
you to lose data. For example, if you restore incremental
2, then restore incremental 1, you will lose the data
restored from incremental 2. You receive a message telling
you that the tapes are out of sequence, but you are not
warned about the data loss.
o NETWORKING
===============
The TCP (sockets) implementation for this machine has a bug
which maanifests itself when using two networked servers
on the same machine. Specifically, when trying to bind on
a currently used port address, the system allows the bind
command to succeed, instead of failing. This causes two
servers to listen on the same port, causing every other
request to connect to fail for the new database. This could
result in other serious problems as well. If the user will be
using networking, they should use TLI.
The default TLI device, /dev/tcp, is not supported on this
machine. Instead, use the /dev/stptcp device by using the
command line option -Nd /dev/stptcp when you invoke the
server and client.
