10:43 kmlussier When renaming an org unit, I've noticed that it takes a long time for web client displays to update to the new name, even after running autogen, clearing cache, restarting apache, etc.
10:44 berick kmlussier: the client caches org units specifically at the session level.  you have to close all tabs.
10:45 kmlussier berick: Ah, ok. Good to know. Thanks!

13:18 * Dyrcona considers adding an alias suod=sudo
13:23 kmlussier heh
13:40 jeff Dyrcona: do you really want to give your typos elevated privileges?
13:40 Dyrcona Just that one. :)
13:41 Dyrcona Trouble is I usually make it on vms that will be replaced soonish anyway, so no real point in having the alias.
13:41 jeff or are we going to veer off into prob&stats discussion on if you're more or less likely to have a typo later in the line after that typo? :-)
13:41 Dyrcona heh. :)
13:49 Bmagic @later tell hbrennan We are on 3.0.2 and now I understand what you are talking about!
13:49 pinesol_green Bmagic: The operation succeeded.
13:50 berick @last --from hbrennan
13:50 pinesol_green berick: Error: I couldn't find a message matching that criteria in my history of 1000 messages.

14:10 Dyrcona Should some of the changes to the 2.12.6 to 3.0.0 upgrade script from Lp 1719726 be backported to the numbered upgrade scripts?
14:10 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1719726 in Evergreen "updates to monolithic schema update script for 3.0-rc" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1719726

14:27 rlefaive joined #evergreen
14:28 kmlussier We should make that a quote. If we haven't done so already.

15:55 jeffdavis I'm puzzled that the fix for bug 1736419/1730758 is working for others but not on my test system
15:55 pinesol_green Launchpad bug 1736419 in Evergreen "Search Showing Bibs with no Holdings" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1736419
15:56 * mmorgan is puzzled about that, too.
15:59 jeffdavis https://upstream.catalogue.lib​raries.coop/eg/opac/record/249 is a record with a located URI at BR1, but the record doesn't show up in a catalog search on that server.
16:02 mmorgan I'm trying to understand the vis_attr_vector fields. What do the very large integers in those fields refer to?
16:04 jeffdavis mmorgan: hmm, for records with located URIs and no holdings I only have very small values in vis_attr_vector - e.g. the record above has {4} in there which is the actor.org_unit.id of the located URI location
16:06 mmorgan jeffdavis: Yes, I see similar for most records with located uris and no holdings, but some also show, for example: {268435571,74}
16:07 kmlussier jeffdavis / mmorgan: Before the fix was even added, I was puzzled that people saw different behavior in the original bug report.
16:08 mmorgan jeffdavis: is your test system a fresh install of 3.0?
16:08 mmorgan Ours is an upgrade.
16:10 jeffdavis Ours a fresh 3.0.2 install with concerto data.
16:12 jeffdavis kmlussier: yeah, good point
16:17 kmlussier mmorgan: And you don't see a difference between new Located URI records and ones that were there before the upgrade?
16:19 mmorgan Not since I applied the patch, but I'll try adding another one.
16:23 Bmagic what is the difference between the 901a and 901c ? They seem like they are always the same. I was thinking one was the ID and the other was TCN but I am not finding that to be true
16:25 jeffdavis Bmagic: looking at evergreen.maintain_901, seems like 901a is TCN and 901c is ID
16:25 jeff Bmagic: a is the tcn, c is the id.
16:26 Bmagic jeffdavis: weird because I am looking at a row where the tcn_value != id and the 901a == 901c
16:26 jeff keep in mind there are various knobs that can control that, and if you disable triggers at insert time for a migration and don't go back and re-ingest, that can impact things also.
16:26 Bmagic found many examples where 901a != tcn_value
16:27 Bmagic no biggie - just curious
16:27 jeff Bmagic: recently edited bibs?
16:27 Bmagic well, these are 2013.... let me check some more recent ones
16:28 Bmagic oh boy I come up empty looking for anything newer than 2014. Nevermind then!
16:28 Dyrcona Bmagic: Did you ever change "cat.bib.use_id_for_tcn"?
16:28 jeff one such knob that can impact if 901a == 901c is the global flag cat.bib.use_id_for_tcn
16:28 mmorgan kmlussier, jeffdavis: I just added a new record with an 856 and $9, but the uri isn't being generated for some reason. So I'm not retrieving it in the public catalog.
16:29 jeff mmorgan: correct indicators? 4 and 1 (or 0?) iirc?
16:29 Dyrcona Bmagic: select * from config.internal_flag where name = 'cat.bib.use_id_for_tcn'; -- should return enabled = 't'
16:29 mmorgan 4 and 0 - oops. Think I see the problem.
16:30 Bmagic Dyrcona: yeah, checked that after you mentioned it. It is enabled on the db but I don't have a date when it was enabled
16:30 Dyrcona or maybe 'f'depending on what you're actually seeing. My guess is that was changed at some point in the past.
16:30 Dyrcona Bmagic: It is enabled by default, but may have been disabled for a record load or something.
16:31 Bmagic gotcha
16:32 mmorgan Helps if the $u is included :)
16:33 jeff aiui, oclc libs dislike cat.bib.use_id_for_tcn.
16:33 jeff but i could be mistaken.
16:33 Dyrcona Bmagic: There's no harm in fixing the bres with update set tcn_value = id where tcn_value <> id
16:33 jeff either way, i wouldn't change it without thinking.
16:33 Dyrcona jeff: Could be...We've used it at MVLC and C/W MARS and both use OCLC for records.
16:34 Dyrcona LoC recommends you use it. :)
16:34 jeff Dyrcona: they do?
16:35 jeff it's been a little while since I was last looking at this, but I'm surprised that they have any recommendation on a 9xx tag.
16:35 Dyrcona jeff: I recall reading something from LoC that recommended you change the 001 on import and add an 035$a.
16:35 Dyrcona jeff: We're not quite talking about the same thing. :)
16:35 jeff Dyrcona: i think you're confusing flags. that sounds like you're talking about cat.maintain_control_numbers.
16:36 Dyrcona No, you're talking about cat.maintain_control_numbers, me thinks.
16:36 mmorgan kmlussier, jeffdavis: I can retrieve my newly created record in the opac. The link is not showing at the cons level, but the record is retrieved in a search.
16:36 Dyrcona Or, rather, I think the flag you mentioned affects the behavior of both.
16:38 kmlussier mmorgan: The link isn't displaying at the cons level? That's strange. In the previous testing, the problem only seemed to affect what was retrieved in searches, not the link display.
16:39 mmorgan Yes, I hadn't noticed that before.
16:40 * csharp confirms that OCLC libraries set cat.bib.use_id_for_tcn = false
16:40 Dyrcona I think you've confirmed that an OCLC library/consortium sets it to false.
16:41 Dyrcona We ran into issue with duplicate TCNs during our migration from Horizon at MVLC, so we had to set it true just to load records. :)
16:41 csharp our libraries (at least) expect tcn_value to be the OCLC accession number
16:42 Dyrcona That's good. It could help prevent duplication of records at least. :)
16:42 csharp yeah, that's at the foundation of our dedupe policies
16:42 jeff i can vouch for a second OCLC library that sets it to cat.bib.use_id_for_tcn = false, so that's two. :-)
16:43 Dyrcona Well, I can vouch for two that don't, so we're tied. :)
16:43 Jillianne joined #evergreen
16:43 * jeff revises original statement
16:43 jeff ainui, some oclc libs dislike cat.bib.use_id_for_tcn.
16:43 Dyrcona :)
16:43 mmorgan kmlussier, jeffdavis: Also not seeing the link at the cons level for existing bibs that haven't been touched :-/ I'll add that to the bug.
16:53 dbwells Not following the conversation closely at all, but we are an OCLC library, and we have both cat.bib.use_id_for_tcn and cat.maintain_control_numbers set to false.  (I also think the LoC recommendations for 001/035 don't hold any water for a MARC record stored in a DB with other metadata, but that's just an opinion.)
16:56 Dyrcona And dbwells gets the last word. :)
16:56 * Dyrcona is signing out. Good evening, all!
17:03 mmorgan left #evergreen
17:15 miker @later tell mmorgan the big numbers in the bre.vis_attr_cache array are the bit-shifted IDs of the bib source of the record.  the shifting algorithm (well, "algorigthm" is strong ... configuration) is defined in the function search.calculate_visibility_attribute()
17:15 pinesol_green miker: The operation succeeded.
17:15 miker jeffdavis: -^
17:35 jeffdavis Ah, ok. Bib source is null for all records on a default install apparently. (Adding a source added a large-number entry to vis_attr_vector, but records with luris still don't show in public search results for me, fwiw.)
