I hope all is well with you.

Apparently there are two create date values in documentum.

One is for the date the original file was created.

The other one is for the date the file version was created. We have files with numerous versions so when we publish the r_creation_date value, it shows the version date.

I am looking to find the name for the date the original content was created which should not change when we publish it out as metadata.

Cheers,
Neil

I just began using documentum.
On my DA, I see The Index server running but the agent is not responding.I started the index server using nctrl start.But this does not help.

the server.ini has the start_index_agents = T parameter set. I assumed that the index agent should start automatically.i did not.

At this point I am not able to access the indexagent admin site also

So I went into /documentum/shared/jboss4.2.0/server/startIndexAgent1.sh
and started the agent. It seems to hangs or it stops at the line

09:52:53,946 INFO [Server] Core system initialized
09:52:58,041 INFO [WebService] Using RMI server codebase: http://:/
09:52:58,044 INFO [Log4jService$URLWatchTimerTask] Configuring from URL: resource:jboss-log4j.xml

now the index agent admin page works but it shows the agent status as stopped.

What am i doing wrong here?

Your reply will be appreciated.

Can you please let me know how to create an alias set using DQL. I can create using DA, but it seems a lengthy process, so I wish to do it in a query.

These are the values if I dump after creating using DA

owner_name : extdocb
object_name : Office Document AS
object_description :
alias_name [0]: content manager
[1]: site administrator
[2]: administrator
[3]: web developer
[4]: WIPACL
[5]: ActiveACL
[6]: ExpiredACL
[7]: content author
[8]: restricted group
alias_value [0]: office document cm
[1]: office docuument_sa
[2]: administrator
[3]: office it team
[4]: Content WIP ACL
[5]: Content Active ACL
[6]: Content Expired ACL
[7]: c_dummy_grp
[8]: c_dummy_grp
alias_category [0]: 2
[1]: 2
[2]: 2
[3]: 2
[4]: 6
[5]: 6
[6]: 6
[7]: 2
[8]: 2
alias_usr_category [0]: 1
[1]: 1
[2]: 1
[3]: 1
[4]: 1
[5]: 1
[6]: 1
[7]: 1
[8]: 1
alias_description [0]:
[1]:
[2]:
[3]:
[4]:
[5]:

[7]:
[8]:

SYSTEM ATTRIBUTES

r_object_id : 6600e4b18003890c

APPLICATION ATTRIBUTES

INTERNAL ATTRIBUTES

i_is_replica : F
i_vstamp : 1

I tried put these in a create statement as

create dm_alias_set object set object_name =’Office Document AS’,set owner_name =’extdocb’, set alias_name=’content manager’, append alias_name=’site administrator’, append alias_name=’administrator’,append alias_name=’web developer’, append alias_name=’WIPACL’,append alias_name=’ActiveACL’, append alias_name=’content author’,append alias_name=’restricted group’, set alias_value=’Office Document cm’,append alias_value=’Office Document sa’, append alias_value=’administrator’, append alias_value=’office it team’, append alias_value=’Content WIP ACL’, append alias_value=’Content Active ACL’, append alias_value=’c_dummy_grp’, append alias_value=’c_dummy_grp’, set alias_category =2, append alias_category=2, append alias_category=2, append alias_category=2, append alias_category=6, append alias_category=6, append alias_category=6, append alias_category=2, append alias_category=2, set alias_usr_category=1, append alias_usr_category=1,append alias_usr_category=1,append alias_usr_category=1,append alias_usr_category=1,append alias_usr_category=1,append alias_usr_category=1,append alias_usr_category=1,append alias_usr_category=1

After applying to the folder, If I dump I can see the alias set id attached to the folder, but on the application, if I click on properties, and see permissions its not updating the correct groups and etc.

Is it like that I should not be using query to create an alias set and prefer only DA ?

Im trying to update a whole bunch of users and I would like to do it all in one script as its going to be a monthly thing. The problem is it only seems to accept my first statement and ignores the rest. Also the result are not great because it only shows how many records where updated and not which ones where. . Can you help ?

Is there a setting that must be made?

Thanks! Steve.

BTW I have some info. about fast server use as well: see

I’m quite a newbie in DCMT and I’d like get a help on getting a proper DQL. What I’d like to get is a list of webpublisher contents and their particular relations with XSL and template XML. The idea is like when you select one XSL presentation in webpublisher and then select on the menu where used and it gives you a list of all the contents that has a relations with the chosen XSL.

use:
SELECT *
FROM dm_document

all attributes and values of dm_document will be displayed. In order to take care of your database add a cabinet-path to avoid hundrets of rows by adding “WHERE FOLDER (‘/abc/def/gh..’, DESCEND)” to the statement above

I am fairly new to documentum and DQL. I’m trying to list all attributes in dm_document. I try with “describe dm_document” but it doesn’t work. I’m using DQL query entry Through Documentum Administrator.

i searched the whole internet and google and found no solution for my problem – maybe you can help..

i have the following problem:
i would like to update the document number for all objects with a specific part of the object-name like:

UPDATE “dm_document” OBJECTS
SET dcdocno = SUBSTR(object_name, 3, 4)

i.e. object_name = GP9902 -> dcdocno = 9902
^ unfortunately DQL don’t support SUBSTR() in an update-statement, just literals or subqueries if they return just one row..

is it possibile to execute such a update-statement in another way with the same result?
