JobQueX

This week I've been testing JobQueX scheduling software for Linux. It's a lot more elaborate scheduling system that our current cron system on vms. If all goes well, this may be our replacement for the current system.

SIS Coordinators meeting

I attended the SIS coordinators meeting yesterday at the University of Oregon. There's a few changes I'll be making to our scarf script as soon as OUS publishes their new data dictionary. Some of the changes included hybrid classes (clases with both traditional and online content ), sending the state code for WUE students, crosslist identifiers for courses and RSTS dates for courses that are dropped.

Linux Migration Update 5/20

Pro C programs are now working successfully through GJAJOBS. Unlike our sql and perl scripts, Pro C uses a "one up number" to get it's parameters. The parameters are stored in the table GJAPRUN.

DEHOLD - remove advising holds

I made some changes to the DEHOLD app on wolf web so that only active advisors can remove a student's advising hold. The advisor also needs the advisor flag checked on SIAINST.

Linux Migration Update

I worked a lot on the job submission script (gjajobs) and our custom script (gjajobs_new) this week. I fixed a few bugs and added some new logic. Perl scripts and sql scripts work successfully now. I'm working on Pro C logic now and it's almost complete. While I was testing the sql script logic, I found several scripts that had VMS paths hardcoded in them. I created a new script (fix_gencom_sql.pl) that will change all of these paths for us.

Linux Migration Update

The segmentation fault errors have been resolved by OUS. The ICU libraries needed to be recompiled (there was a flag missing when the original libraries were compiled ). I recompiled a few programs and they all seem to work good. I wrote a script compile_all.pl that will recompile all of our pro c programs. This will make things easier for us when we move to production.
