2 Introduction
Welcome to the Dollar Universe 6 Getting Started!
This manual addresses the needs of the person(s) who will use UniViewer Console to manage Dollar
Universe for the first time and accessing Dollar Universe Explorer.
This manual will provide basic information to design jobs and to run a job chain.
Chapter 3 Environment | 7
3 Environment
Your environment should contain:
In Windows:
Select the UniViewer Console from the Windows Menu.
Start>Programs>AUTOMIC>UniViewer Console > UniViewer Console.
In UNIX/LINUX:
Go to the UniViewer Console installation directory (by default):
cd /var/opt/AUTOMIC/univiewer_console
The Management Server you specify during the first connection is recorded. You will not have to
provide it at subsequent connections.
8 | Chapter 3 Environment
Click Save.
If the license key is correct the Status field will display green and show a VALID status.
The Dollar Universe node is automatically declared to the Management Server during its installation. It
must appear in this list. Its status should be Connected.
If the status is unreachable or you get an error message, check whether Dollar Universe has started.
Access to the $U functions are still possible (if the UVMS license for DUAS is valid).
Chapter 3 Environment | 9
Access the product log from Nodes > Trace > Product Log
If the circled message above appears, the license you entered is invalid.
The IO (uxioserv) and CDJ (uxcdjsrv) processes are basic processes of the product and should be
started at least for the Production Area (X). The BVS (uxbvssrv) processes are the Business View
Status processes. DQM (uxdqmsrv) is used to submit the jobs. They are necessary for operations in
local mode.
Example:
DUXnode DOLLAR_UNIVERSE:DUX 6 20201231 0123456789ABCDEFGH
10 | Chapter 3 Environment
License keys can be obtained from the Support Portal (customer login on Support Portal) or through
your sales contact.
In the absence of a valid license, the Dollar Universe Explorer server starts but refuses all new
user connections. A message is written in the log file.
A modification of the license file may be detected by the server, at the latest at the end of a
cycle of 5 minutes.
In Administration mode > Security > Groups: create a new group (ex. DUX) or open an existing
group. In the section Roles, click the box before the Dollar Universe Explorer role that you just
created.
Chapter 3 Environment | 11
In Administration mode > Security > Login: modify your user account. In the Group section, check
the case before the group that contains the Dollar Universe Explorer role (DUX in this example).
Once your user name exists in UVMS, its group (i.e. DUX) has a Dollar Universe Explorer role that
gives the display permission to the repository (respository). You can then connect to Dollar Universe
Explorer.
12 | Chapter 3 Environment
From the command line: To start Dollar Universe Explorer, run the unistartdux command
from the bin directory (ex. C:\Program files(86)\AUTOMIC\Dollar Universe
Explorer\bin\unistartdux on Windows). To stop Dollar Universe Explorer, run the command
unistopdux.
From the Windows menu: Programs > AUTOMIC > Dollar Universe Explorer > Dollar
Universe Explorer Start or Dollar Universe Explorer Stop
Dollar Universe Explorer must be started in order for the graphical interface to be displayed.
http://localhost:9000: If you are opening Dollar Universe Explorer on your local machine.
http://<host name>:9000: to access a remote machine. The name of the machine can be the
hostname or the IP address.
9000 is the port number attributed by default when Dollar Universe Explorer is installed. If it is
modified, the new value will be in the variable HTTP_SERVER_PORT.
The connection page allows you to enter the user name and password. It gives access to the
repositories the user has permission to display.
4 Business Views
Dollar Universe Explorer is a tool for monitoring workflows in order to better understand Dollar
Universe production. Therefore, there must be an already existing workflow on the repository node. If
one does not exist, the user can create and deploy a business view in order to create a job chain.
In order for the job chain to appear in Dollar Universe Explorer, all the Dollar Universe objects must be
saved on the reference node entered during the creation of the repository (repository in the
examples).
Object Design
Design
Deployment
Enter a Label: Shutdown database (this field can hold 64 alphanumeric characters at most).
Version: 000
Type: Select CL_INT for a Uproc with an internal script.
Application: Enter the application code: "U_" (64 alphanumeric characters).
Domain: I
Save.
Execution waits for 15 seconds, then the resexe variable (on Windows) or the exit (on UNIX/Linux)
indicates the result of script execution:
Name this Uproc DB_SAVE. The new DB_SAVE Uproc is identical to the Uproc that was duplicated:
same specs and same command file.
Fill in the name and label fields.
Remember to save each Uproc.
Close the breadcrumb.
Repeat this process to create DB_START.
Once all your Uprocs are created, line them up vertically:
Click OK.
Click OK.
The name and the Uproc description will appear in red because the Session links dont exist yet.
Select the Session, and then click on Create OK Session Link.
Put the DB_SHUT cursor towards DB_SAVE. Use arrows to link the Uprocs. They determine the
submission order.
Next, click again on Create OK Session Link to release the cursor.
Save the Business View. This action displays a message to inform you the session will be saved
first.
The little colored ball in the top right corner of the Session allows the color of the Session box to be
changed.
Click OK.
Then choose the Start date by clicking on the calendar on the right or using the up and down arrow
key.
Click OK.
Click Save and Close to keep the task and close the breadcrumb.
Back in the Business View window, click on Save. Close the Business View.
In the Design Mode > Deployment, click Deployment Hub. In the list of deployments, click
New Deployment.
In the Source section, select type "Business View and check the DAILYDB.BV checkbox.
In the Destination section, select "Management Unit" and check the checkbox for the Management
Unit, whose name matches the name of the local Node.
Check the "Enable the following" checkbox to create a Job Chain as you deploy the BV. Click Send to
initiate the deployment.
The list of deployed objects appears in the list of deployments: Design Mode > Deployment >
Deployment Hub.
Close the Deployment Hub.
By moving the mouse over the Uproc, you can display the average run time (using statistical
averages).
By moving the mouse over the Task space, you can display the status of the Session, at the end of
Session execution as well as average run time (using statistical averages).
Choose your first Uproc and right click. Then select Display Run.
Check the status in the General section or the Job Log and History Trace options in the toolbar.
4.4 Recap
To recap, Business Views is an extremely powerful aide to those users whose responsibility involve a
lot of development centered on business processes and prefer a global interface rather than move in
and out of object categories.
5 Monitoring Workflows
Once a job chain has been created with UVC in the Dollar Universe environment, connect to Dollar
Universe Explorer.
Click Search
Once the search is entered, all workflows on the selected repository are displayed. Currently, on the
repository there is only one workflow, the job chain that was just created: DB_MAINTENANCE.
Double-click on the workflow and select View details to display the contents of the workflow. The
detail of the scheduled workflow contains the Uprocs created for the Business View and displays the
Uproc name and type (Shutdown Database, Save Database and Start Database).
