Volume MFS

MichaelMichael
in OpenInsight
Hey guys.. Long time.

Has anyone had any success in implementing a "volume MFS"? I.e. an MFS placed on an entire volume to deal with all IO to any table in said volume? The concept is documented but not very well fleshed-out.

The SYSPTRS record seems set up properly, pointed to the correct path, and calling the MFS in question. The MFS at this point is mainly a shell, but virtually identical to a normal table MFS. I have seen no documentation for other requirements.

I can Attach the volume by the SYSPTRS ID fine. LISTTABLES shows the full path, Not the SYSPTRS ID, which I thought interesting

Any thing else I do with the volume now through the MFS throws a SYS1000 'Error loading program ""'

Does anyone have any words of knowledge?

Thanks in advance.

Michael

    Is your MFS added to the volume as
    programID*appID
  • MichaelMichael
    Nope just MMVOL_MFS. It's all been done in SYSPROG. Does *SYSPROG need to be in the mix?

    I haven't seen that in any docs on the subject.

    no appid default is sysprog

    Thanks. Still looking for a solution

    are you sure it is in SYSOBJ and is a sysprog object
  • MichaelMichael
    Yep
  • BarryStevensBarryStevens
    Can you show us what is in your SYSPTRS record

    How did you create the volume poiner with the MFS?

    Oi10:
    File->New->Entity->Database Components->OpenInsight DataSource

    OI9:
    Database Manager>File>Create Volume Pointers menu to bring up the System Volume Pointers window

    Stand by. Evidently there's an(other) OI10 bug. Don is investigating.
