$TXT Created by HOLLOWAY,THOMAS J at MNTVBB.FO-ALBANY.MED.VA.GOV (KIDS) on Wednesday, 06/18/03 at 09:48 ============================================================================= Run Date: JUL 07, 2003 Designation: DG*5.3*526 Package : DG - REGISTRATION Priority: EMERGENCY Version : 5.3 SEQ #455 Status: Released Compliance Date: JUL 09, 2003 ============================================================================= Associated patches: (v)DG*5.3*273 <<= must be installed BEFORE `DG*5.3*526' Subject: MODIFY DG FIELD MONITOR TASKS Category: - Routine - Other Description: ============ NOTE: ** THIS IS AN EMERGENCY PATCH ** This patch modifies routine ^DGFCPROT that is called by the 'new style' cross references introduced by DG*5.3*273 released in November, 2002. These cross references are on the PATIENT file (#2) in the NAME (#.01), DATE OF BIRTH (#.03), SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER (#.09) and DATE OF DEATH (#.351) fields. The routine tasks updates if any ITEMS (#10) are attached to the DG FIELD MONITOR protocol (also introduced by DG*5.3*273), but fails to clean up the tasks once they are completed. This Emergency patch will modify the routine to clean up these tasks. When a situation develops where a great many updates (tasks) are set off, such as the Patient file (#2) conversion called for by DG*5.3*244, the Patient Name Standardization, it was felt that we should limit the number of concurrent taskman jobs that can run at any one time. Therefore, this patch includes a pre-init routine that adds a resource device DG FIELD MONITOR to the Device file (#3.5) and Resource file (#3.54). This patch also modifies routine ^DGFCPROT to identify this resource device. ASSOCIATED E3R(S): ================== N/A ASSOCIATED NOIS: ================ 1. TAM-0503-32171 PATCH DG*5.3*244 CONVERSION Participating Test Sites: ========================= Richmond, VA Bay Pines, FL Hampton, VA Big Spring NOIS OVERVIEW: ============== 1. TAM-0503-32171 PATCH DG*5.3*244 CONVERSION Problem: -------- When running the conversion on the PATIENT file (#2) called for by DG*5.3*244 released on May 23, 2003, each time a patient name is re-formatted, a task is generated by the cross reference. Because of the volume of name changes involved, the Taskman global can grow to an unacceptable size. Resolution: ----------- Routine ^DGFCPROT is modified to clean up each task as it completes. ROUTINE SUMMARY =============== The following is a list of the routines included in this patch. The second line of each of these routines now looks like: ;;5.3;Registration;**[patch list]**;AUG 13,1993 CHECK^XTSUMBLD results Routine Before Patch After Patch Patch List ======= ============ =========== ========== DGFCPROT 2104084 2196632 273,526 DG53E526 N/A 464388 526 DG53P526 N/A 711026 526 Total number of routines - 3 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS ========================= ** NOTE** -- Prior to installation, the installer must ensure the DUZ(0) node of the DUZ array is set to the "@" symbol. This patch can be installed with users on the system; install time will be less than 1 minute. 1. Choose the PackMan message containing this patch and invoke the INSTALL/CHECK MESSAGE PackMan option. 2. (DSM for Open VMS sites only) Disable routine mapping on all systems for the routines listed in the Routine Summary. 3. Start up the Kernel Installation and Distribution System Menu [XPD MAIN]: Edits and Distribution ... Utilities ... Installation ... Select Kernel Installation & Distribution System Option: Installation --- 1 Load a Distribution 2 Verify Checksums in Transport Global 3 Print Transport Global 4 Compare Transport Global to Current System 5 Backup a Transport Global 6 Install Package(s) Restart Install of Package(s) Unload a Distribution 4. From this menu, you may elect to use the following options (When prompted for the INSTALL NAME, enter DG*5.3*526): a. Backup a Transport Global - This option will create a backup message of any routines exported with this patch. It will not backup any other changes such as DD's or templates. b. Compare Transport Global to Current System - This option will allow you to view all changes that will be made when this patch is installed. It compares all components of this patch (routines, DD's, templates, etc.). c. Verify Checksums in Transport Global - This option will allow you to ensure the integrity of the routines that are in the transport global. 5. Use the Install Package(s) option and select the package DG*5.3*526. a. When prompted 'Want KIDS to INHIBIT LOGONs during the install? YES//', answer NO. b. When prompted 'Want to DISABLE Scheduled Options and Menu Options and Protocols? YES//', answer NO. 6. (DSM for Open VMS sites only) Optional - Include the routines distributed with this patch in the mapped routine set. NOTE: This step is only necessary if you performed step 2 or if you wish to include the routines in your mapped set. 7. The environment check routine, DG53E526, and the pre-init routine, DG53P526, can be removed after successful installation. 8. Please verify that the new device file entry looks like: NAME: DG FIELD MONITOR $I: DG FIELD MONITOR LOCATION OF TERMINAL: DG field editing protocol RESOURCE SLOTS: 9 SUBTYPE: P-OTHER TYPE: RESOURCES and that the entry in the RESOURCE file (#3.54) looks like: NAME: DG FIELD MONITOR AVAILABLE SLOTS: 9 9. If you wish to edit this new device (such as for changing the number of slots), you can use the Resource Device Edit option [XUDEVEDITRES] under the Device Management menu.
