  • Programmatic support for backup and restore operations
  • New pathname encoding function
  • Changes to schema evolution api
  • Multi-process dump and load
  • Performance and metadata checking

Platform Notes

  • Supported JMTL Appservers are Weblogic 7.0 and Weblogic 8.1
  • OSJI requires the environment variable LD_PRELOAD set to $OS_ROOTDIR/lib/libos.sl: $OS_ROOTDIR/lib/libosth.sl
  • With JDK 1.3 the following patches need to be installed in order that LD_PRELOAD work:
    1. PHSS_26560 for HP-UX 11.11
    2. PHSS_26559 for HP-UX 11.00

Several ObjectStore examples may fail out of the box with an ossg error. This is a known issue with the makefiles shipped with the examples. If you should encounter this problem add the option '-suncc_550' to the ossg line in the makefile.

* Notes on support for the aCC 3.57 compiler:

  • On HP 11.11 a compiler warning message related to Class_86 having a configuration of non-virtual and virtual bases may result. Using the +abi_3_33_compat flag, as specified in the warning message itself, will work-around this message.
  • When using the Dump/Load utilities set LD_PRELOAD=libos.sl:libosth.sl:libosmsgsys.sl:libostrvrs.sl
  • HP 11.23 is a run-time only support for applications built on the 11.11 platform

6.1.0 for Linux originally available 2003-02-01

6.1 SP2 (LNXC3) originally available: 2004-03-26

New features

  • Programmatic support for backup and restore operations
  • New pathname encoding function
  • Changes to schema evolution api
  • Multi-process dump and load
  • Performance and metadata checking

Platform Notes:

  • The ObjectStore installation program uses compress and uncompress, and looks for them in /usr/bin. If you are installing ObjectStore on a linux platform, you will need to install ncompress-4.2.4-31.i386.rpm to get these utilities
  • The default vm.max_map_count kernel parameter limits the address space to 256 MB. Use "sysctl -w vm.max_map_count= value" to change the value.

Several ObjectStore examples may fail out of the box with an ossg error. This is a known issue with the makefiles shipped with the examples. If you should encounter this problem add the option '-suncc_550' to the ossg line in the makefile.
