Re: Toggle table header output on/off
While isql does not have a command option to turn the display of headers on and off,the sqsh client does have such a command ("headers"). So in terms of having thiscapability under the control of the...

Sound advice Jeff for not polling sysprocesses.Bit off topic but that is what I ended up doing for a badly coded login trigger. As I took up one of my assignments I changed it to stop polling...

Please please please don't poll sysprocesses. You kill yourself with PSS spinlock contention. Use the ACF functions and SYS_SESSION: grant select on builtin get_appcontext to public select...

View ArticleRe: Toggle table header output on/off
Printing headers is not an ASE function - it is result set metadata. It is up to the client to determine whether to print these or not. Obviously, "dumb" clients such as isql simply offer a switch...
View ArticleRe: Toggle table header output on/off
Use -b on the isql side and use "print" statement inside the procedure to output custom header lines where you need them. To speed up your work you can first capture the header(s) you need with a...
View ArticleRe: Toggle table header output on/off
Since the ability to hide/display headers is a client (isql in this case) setting, ASE would need some means of sending a signal to the client that says to override the client's show/hide header...

Hi all, I know isql has the -b parameter that suppresses table header output, but is there any way to turn it back on? I'm running a stored procedure that outputs some data, and I'd like the headings...
View ArticleRe: Missing permissions even though role is granted
You've mentioned a 'new server' so I'm guessing your migration consisted of dumping from 12.5.4 and loading into 16.0 (ie, you did *not* do an in-place upgrade of the dataserver). In the case of...

BTW - I am not sure how deleting the 'problematic' user in master helps with the problem in a user database. Ideally, there shouldn't be too many users in master. If the 'problematic' user was a...

30-40% Idle is still quite a bit (with large engine counts and aggressive task stealing enabled) and is precisely what I was saying. But you really need to look at IdleTicks:BusyTicks and TotalTicks.

View ArticleRe: ASE on Power8 / 16 Cpus + SMT8 ( 128 Vcpus)
The problem is that the engines are largely idle - check monThreads - especially with idle timeout set that high. I'd reduce idle timeout to 250 for a start. When the engines are idle (no task in...
