Thanks for this information. I will check this bat file when I work with 9.1.7 the next time. Datacap sometimes changes small, but non-negligible specifications or add new features without warning or any documentation. So I always hate to upgrade its version. ------------------------------ dsakai -- ...

After layout.xml is created, I use C# XML parser API to read all elements. As the custom action reads each element, its positions (left, top, right, bottom) are stored as well. Then, a different custom action can find the target element (cell) and then find the cell directly below it by calculating ...

Thanks for the reply. The client system would raise an alarm for each unlisted file but the client did not want to skip entire c:\Datacap. So, IBM team persuaded the client to exclude the certain directories and files from surveillance list. It took some effort to find out which files were temporary ...

Yes. The Windows 2016 Server is the single-server (single-box) installation of Datacap. ------------------------------ dsakai ------------------------------

Thanks for your reply. This is how we did the last time. 1) Prepare datacap admin user (dcadmin) and maintenance user (dcuser) on Windows Active Directory. 2) Install and configure Datacap 9.1.7 using dcadmin on a single Windows 2016 machine. 3) Open a command prompt and move to c:\Datacap\Taskmaster. ...

Hi, I and my colleagues have been trying to import a key from a Windows user account. We wanted to separate a Datacap managing user from an admin account. We have followed this Support instruction to import a key for each Windows user account. https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/requirements-importing ...

Hi Tod, Thanks for the suggestion. mvscan's behavior is explicitly changed and I cannot find any description about it. So I am guessing it is on 9.1.7 IF1 release note. mvscan now delete the task's rrlog as it polls each time. I wouldn't mind this part, but it also polls more than 10 times per second ...

Hi Tod, Thanks for reply. There are several clients running Datacap version below 9.1.3. To estimate upgrade impact to 9.1.5 - 9.1.7, I am collecting IF release notes that can tell what feature is fixed or added. I know Datacap only supports as far as two fix versions back, but some clients may prefer ...

Thanks for your reply. Do you have the release note for 9.1.7 IF1? I'd like to see what has changed in 9.1.7 IF1. If so, could you please attach it here? ------------------------------ dsakai ------------------------------

RE: Anyway to stop INSERT into TASKSTATS table?

Thanks for your reply. 2) I think this is what I am going to do. Making a rule in Maintenance Task Manager that truncates TASTSTATS every night. Because INSERT is done into TASKSTATS no matter what, and the client requires the MSSQL Database to be in FULL recovery mode, INSERT is continually growing ...

Anyway to stop INSERT into TASKSTATS table?

Hi, I asked Support what the use of TASKSTATS table was. The operator told me only Report Viewer used this table. Why is Datacap always writing into TASKTATS anyway when it is not configured with Report Viewer? In one project, the size of this table had become like several hundred GB at one time. I told ...

Thanks for the reply. I think I saw a fix on IF1 Release note that was about fixing mvscan creating a huge log file as the action appended the polling log to the RRS log an every few seconds. But this was not on IF2 Release note. In 9.1.7 mvscan does not create a large log file anymore, which is good, ...

Hello I am trying to assess the impact of raising the client's Datacap version from 9.1.3 to 9.1.7. 9.1.7 currently has IF2. I saw IF1 a couple of months ago but FixCentral seemed to have removed it. I cannot find 9.1.7 IF1 Release note anywhere. I'd like to know what is fixed, which I think are all ...

Thanks for your reply. I can move applications out side of c:\datacap. I can also set up Datacap Server, Rulerunner Server, wTM logs to be outside of c:\datacap. Do you know any other Product specific staging files and temporary files that get created (and perhaps deleted) as Datacap Server and Rulerunner ...

Hi, The client is asking us if they can fully mirror C:\Datacap directory with a secondary environment.

Hi, I installed Datacap 9.1.7 (no IFIX) at the client's site. Their system has a strong monitoring framework. I got a call from the client that Datacap had its restart operation registered on Windows Scheduer without their approval. I confirmed internally that this was so. (See pic.) Is this a defect? ...

tms log and wTM log both can rotate. However, rulerunner log does not seem to have this option. So far in Datacap projects I have participated, the rulerunner log is archived using a custom batch program. Is there any reason why the rulerunner log is let increased without a limit? I hope it gets rotation ...
