Re: Anybody here know anything about Mimix?

We use Mimix to replicate data from our 'Primary' box to our 'Secondary'
box. We perform our backups nightly on the Secondary box. Once a quarter
we do a 'switch' from our primary to our secondary to test fail over and
run over the weekend on that.

What level of Mimix are they on?
LAKEVIEW/WRKPRD
We stay pretty current and that command returns:
Installation Installed
Product Library Version
License Manager LAKEVIEW 7.1.19.00
MIMIX Professional MIMIX 7.1.19.00

What level of the OS are they on on their source system?
What level of the OS are they on on their target system?

Is WRKPTFGRP current on their source system?
Is WRKPTFGRP current on their target system?


I ran this command:
WRKAUD
and I see a pletora of audits. Ours are all clean right now...

But let's look at the *OBJATR audit. So I'll use "14=Audited objects" on
it.
Audited Object
Status Type Name
*EQ *DTAQ DGECAMF/AGAL184002
*EQ *DTAQ DGECAMF/AGAL184032
*EQ *DTAQ DGECAMF/AGAL184111

There may be options in there to ask it why does it think it's not equal.
It might be easier to check if I had some that were out of sync.

The reason that I asked about the levels of Mimix, OS and PTF's is that
often a problem can be resolved by keeping current.
Take this wild example, some obscure thing changes an attribute on the
object on their source system. This attribute change is not recorded in a
file journal entry against the object. It's also not recorded as an
object audit entry change in the system object audit journal. Odd, but
perhaps possible in a system which believes "if it ain't broke don't fix
it" and has fallen behind on OS and PTFs.

On a related note, does your join span libraries? Maybe one of the tables
is in a library that is not 'mimixed' over to the target. When it tries
to add the member it can't.

Anyone running Mimix had better be under Mimix support. They should
easily tell you what attribute on that object is being flagged and give
you some suggestions as to what to do to resolve the situation.
