Topic: TurboIMAGE

	Transforming TurboIMAGE Data to Oracle
		Although TurboIMAGE does not place any restrictions on the reasonableness of item datatypes (i.e., you can define J25 if you wish) and does not validate values before inserting them into the database, most TurboIMAGE databases use only the data types that can be processed by the programming languages on the HP 3000.
		ITEM-NUMBER is P8 in TurboIMAGE, which converts to Number as the Oracle internal datatype, with Packed-decimal as the external datatype.
		In TurboIMAGE, this would be a J4, which converts to Number as the Oracle internal datatype.

	TurboIMAGE Scalability II
		Because of the serialization, TurboIMAGE may not be able to scale up well with the system growth.
		In addition to Put/Del semaphore, another potential bottleneck is when adding or deleting a record to a detail data set, TurboIMAGE needs to update information in the data set user label, which includes the high water mark, delete chain head and number of free records in the data set.
		TurboIMAGE returns the record to the delete chain head and increases the number of free records by one.

	Understanding Prefetch in IMAGE
		With prefetch enabled, TurboIMAGE reads all the data blocks that are needed for the complete transaction before the PUT/DELETE semaphore is locked.
		It is the holding of the semaphore lock for a shorter period of time which could improve the throughput of data on your system, but this is not guaranteed.
		There was a problem with prefetch under TurboIMAGE versions C.04.06 through C.04.08, when DBPUTs to a detail dataset were failing because this flag was set and there were some uninitialized variables which caused problems.

	Robelle Tech: Migrating Empty Date Values From TurboIMAGE
		Unlike TurboIMAGE, where date values are stored in generic data types such as X (character) or I (integer), SQL databases have a DATE type specifically for date values.
		Since TurboIMAGE does not have a DATE type (and doesn’t enforce data types anyway), many IMAGE-based applications have some invalid date values, and use blanks/zero to mean that the date is not yet known.
		SQL has the concept of a specific NULL value that can exist and be detected (the internal implementation may actually use zeroes or blanks or a special flag, but that is normally not exposed to the user).

	Eloquence TurboIMAGE compatibility
		The Eloquence TurboIMAGE compatibility extension is an optional Eloquence component which provides a HP e3000 TurboIMAGE compatible programming interface ("intrinsics") for the Eloquence database.
		While not 100% compatible it is close so applications originating on the HP e3000 can be ported to the Eloquence database with no or only minor changes.
		The Eloquence TurboIMAGE compatibility extension is a library of functions that translates the TurboIMAGE intrinsic calls into the native Eloquence API.

	TurboIMAGE database intrinsics
		For each TurboIMAGE intrinsic call a short description is provided along with notes which describe possible Eloquence specific behavior or limitations.
		The item types J and R are not supported natively and are only visible to the TurboIMAGE emulation.
		The 'R' item type is supported in TurboIMAGE compatibility only, values are expected to be encoded in IEEE format.

	Re:RE: No DBAs needed on AS400
		In the "What is TurboImage" section they do acknowledge the background in Image, though there is no mention of TOTAL or that the predecessors where network based.
		SQL is a foreign language to them, their all use to TurboImage intrinsics and a SQL*Plus look alike tool called Quiz.
		Problem with TurboImage is that to "modify a database" you have to rebuild it using an HP utility and then you have to rebuild all of your application programs, or else they crash.

	5.2 Mode 1 TurboIMAGE Locking
		The most efficient way to lock all rows is to lock the entire data set.
		Today, TurboIMAGE only has one type of lock, which is equivalent to an X lock in ALLBASE/SQL.
		The only way for TurboIMAGE to guarantee that the data read by an RR transaction will not change is to lock it exclusively.

		These stand-alone systems range in size from the 918 through the 987 and all are running the full suite of electric utility billing and accounting applications developed, maintained and supported by SEDC on behalf of its member companies.
		It also means, however, that our underlying TurboIMAGE database structure cannot be replaced for the duration of the migration effort (a process we estimate will take between 3 and 5 years to fully complete).
		Used exclusively in our interactive module rewrite and soon to be used in phase 2 of our batch job redesign, SDK has proven to be a high-speed, reliable, industrial-strength SQL database interface, portable across a variety of popular industry platforms and relational database products.

	HP3000 FAQ Topic 13.7 - Database Logging
		This logging facility is utilized by TurboImage on the HP3000 to record transaction information and to facilitate reporting and recovery of database transactions.
		Though there is no built-in facility to generate "audit" reports from an Image log file, there are several third party packages which will do this.
		The ability to recover transactions from an Image log file on the other hand is "built in" to TurboImage.

	5.1 Mode 5 TurboIMAGE Locking (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Answer: Locks on TurboIMAGE data are never acquired by a MODE 5 user.
		If a predicate evaluates to TRUE for a row, the row qualifies; otherwise, the row is not operated on.
		Locks on TurboIMAGE data are never acquired by a MODE 5 user, whether or not a predicate is used.

	Robelle Tech: SQL Server and TurboIMAGE Data
		Last month we explored the process of transforming TurboIMAGE data into formats that are acceptable to Oracle.
		This was introduced in SQL Server 2000 and is the same as I4 in TurboIMAGE.
		The CUST-ACCOUNT number field in TurboIMAGE was a Z8 field to enforce better hashing of the values, but Z indicates that it always contains numeric values.

	OGSE Custom Software
		With our in-depth knowledge of TurboIMAGE and MPE/iX, Orion Group can offer a gradual conversion process of applications and data avoiding the typical pitfalls that come with a "big bang" type conversion.
		Using a combination of different techniques and technologies, including code migration and application re-engineering, custom applications can be migrated over time, reducing training costs and extending the cost of the migration project over a period of time.
		Our "EasyStep Approach" to migration allows for new GUI or web-based screens to be functional with current HP e3000 data as well as the target relational database, making the screens functional both now as well as later when your organization moves off the HP e3000.

		On November 14, 2001, the IT world changed dramatically for everyone using the HP e3000, MPE/iX and TurboIMAGE.
		Whether it wants to or not, each organization with at least one HP e3000 is embarking on a transition, a transition that will make or break careers, and a transition that if handled poorly could bring down the organization.

		If one wants to access data that exists in an HP 3000 TurboIMAGE database from a Windows application there are several choices.
		Another alternative is to purchase a commercial ODBC software package in order to have ODBC access to TurboIMAGE databases in their native form.
		Still other client server approaches exist that usually involve the developer writing a server program on the HP 3000 and a client for the Windows computer.

		This forces the developer to treat these databases and file systems as though they were relational databases — often with severe performance implications.
		Non-relational data, such as C-ISAM files on UNIX, RMS files on OpenVMS, TurboIMAGE datasets on MPE/iX or DISAM on Windows, can be fully described within the PowerHouse data dictionary.
		And your existing relational databases can be used by PowerHouse as sub-dictionaries, so definitions don't have to be duplicated in multiple places.
