So does 2.6 require Postgres 9.3, or is 9.1 fine? |
| 14:07 |
jeffdavis |
I'm running 2.6 on a test server with a 9.1 db now and haven't run into any issues, but haven't thoroughly tested so far. |
| 14:08 |
bshum |
jeffdavis: 9.1 is fine |
| 14:08 |
bshum |
9.3 should work though |
| 14:08 |
bshum |
Or at least, that's what a bunch of bugs were directed at fixing |
| 14:09 |
jeffdavis |
thanks! |
| 14:17 |
dbs |
9.3 should work as of 2.6, right? |
| 14:18 |
dbs |
So upgrade from 2.5 to 2.6 on 9.1, then upgrade from 9.1 to 9.3 |
| 14:18 |
bshum |
dbs: That's the general idea. |
| 14:18 |
bshum |
I think |
| 14:18 |
bshum |
I didn't test it that way though, now that you mention it. |
| 14:19 |
bshum |
I just did 9.1 to 9.3 first, then upgraded the rest of the way from where I left off in my numbered scripts. |
| 14:19 |
bshum |
Ignoring any broken parts of the restore (since those were broken things fixed with the upgrade SQL) |
| 14:20 |
dbs |
Yeah. I wonder if there are clear pros to either approach for "normal" sites |
| 14:20 |
bshum |
Depends on how you do the PG upgrade I guess. |

I think we'll also be moving to new hardware at the same time for us. So we have *lots* of moving parts in our equation. :\ |

If you run the upgrade SQLs before doing the upgrade of the database to 9.3, then the database should restore just fine. |

wonders if it's worth trying to backport the new marc_export script to 2.5.1 |
| 09:29 |
csharp |
I'm doing a full DB + holdings export, and that takes us about 48 hours with the "old" script |
| 09:31 |
bshum |
csharp: It's not scientific, but doing a parallel export test when that new marc_export was merged got me my whole DB in less than two hours what used to take 26 hours consecutive extracting. |
| 09:32 |
bshum |
(i.e. it might be worth it, if you're not planning to upgrade again for awhile) |

i don't think there's much to backport, yeah. |
| 13:01 |
Dyrcona |
Then you can git merge the custom branches into it. |
| 13:02 |
Dyrcona |
We base our custom branches on the master branch, because when we upgrade, we checkout from the master branch. |
| 13:02 |
Dyrcona |
For instance, we're upgrading this coming weekend. |
| 13:02 |
Dyrcona |
We also loaded everything on our training server in advance to give our members a chance to look at things and find any bugs that we missed during preliminary testing. |
| 13:03 |

| 13:04 |

We made the branch on the 16th of April and named it mvlc_20140416. |

I'll just ask my question to the full channel (though I'd be happy if eeevil sees it) - I am making some edits to the reporter.classic_item_list definition in fm_IDL.xml, and wanted to know if it is correct to denote the "rel" attribute of the link between reporter.classic_item_list and our "legacy" stat cats as "might_have" rather than "has_a" |
| 13:05 |
Dyrcona |
It has had two or three bug fixes applied as well as our custom branches. |

It is a good idea to rebase your custom branches periodically to keep them up to date with changes or when you want to test a new branch, like going from 2.5 to 2.6 . |

Without an active pullrequest and the unfinished discussion, I guess this one slipped through the cracks during development cycles for 2.5, etc. |

My recommendation is to take back the conversation and get a new pullrequest on the bug with the code that should be reviewed. |

| 09:29 |
kmlussier |
Since LP already allows any LP user to mark it as confirmed, I expect some people will do it whether it's part of our best practices or not. And I don't think that's a bad thing. We just need to be aware that there may be a valid reason why an importance isn't set when somebody marks a bug as confirmed. |
| 09:29 |
tspindler |
If i can chime in, i thinnk keeping the status changes to the bug wrangler team is important, i think it could really muddy things if all users could do this. A regular user can argue in a comment section for its importance or indicate it was tested. |

+1 to dbs' suggestion. |

asking because it just came up in conversation: does anyone have an example of where you might use a copy's "reference" attribute vs the copy's "circulate" attribute (or perhaps more commonly, the copy's location's "circulate" attribute)? |

i.e., is there a situation where "reference" wouldn't just be an inverse of "circulate"? |

You have to install the prereqs when you install OpenSRF, and then again once you start on Evergreen |

Guest23408: your open-ils.cstore service is no longer connected to the Jabber / XMPP server, or it simply isn't running at all. |
| 10:20 |
Guest23408 |
so i need to go back in jabber to run it again> |
| 10:21 |
jeff |
Guest23408: in very general terms, I would suggest stopping apache, stopping all OpenSRF services, then starting OpenSRF services and waiting for them to finish starting (watch CPU usage and/or logs), then start Apache again. |
| 10:21 |
jeff |
You could optionally test with srfsh in between starting OpenSRF services and starting Apache. |
| 10:22 |
jeff |
But keep an eye on logs to see if you have a problem that isn't fixed by a simple restart -- and I would recommend looking back in the logs to see what happened in the first place. |

SOme of my adventurous librarians may try those and we don't whatn them to. |

if the staff users in question don't have the underlying permission to merge or delete bibs, in theory the buttons will be enabled but not actually do what they do, unless someone enters credentials when prompted that DO have those underlying permissions. |

That's all I need is for rogue merging to be going on behind our backs. |

That's my usual mode -- identify the malformed records and exclude, or fix by hand. |

Ideally they wouldn't get into biblio.record_entry.marc if they're malformed. I don't know if that's just imported or older record data. I haven't tested to see if you can sneak bad data in in current Evergreen. |

tsbere: adding it to the temp list fails in a fashion. if you request the anon cache key's value you see one electronic resource id, but you can never add it to a real (non-temp) list, and the next record you add to the list overwrites the electronic resource. |
| 15:52 |
tsbere |
huh, fun |
| 15:53 |
jeff |
overwrites is an oversimplification -- the contents of the anon cache are fetched, run through search, and then the new record is appended to the end of those results -- so the search step always eats the electronic resource. |

unless your resource is an auri at the top of the org tree, i suspect (but haven't tested that) |

Start with 5 to make sure the match set works the way you want, after that your upper limit is determined by the complexity of your matches and your hardware. |

bshum: upshot - hash key sort randomization caused failures in Koha's test cases of its copy of QueryParser |
| 17:48 |

that may (or may not) apply to Evergreen |

the issue manifested as a given query randoming resulting in different parse trees |

jl-: You know, I misread what you said earlier. 500k bibs sounds like a good amount (it occurs to me that our system is only around 1.1 million actives). 4 GB of RAM might not be covering that so well and it's slow for hitting disk. |
| 10:59 |
jl- |
has anyone thought of using apache solr? they have all kinds of search tweaking |
| 11:00 |
denishpatel |
eeevil: is there a way to download evergreen's postgres schema only to load into my test server? |
| 11:00 |
jeff |
jl-: someone did play with solr, but we never saw any code, and i don't think that it was at all integrated with evergreen, just searching an export of records from evergreen (but again -- never saw any code, so dunno) |
| 11:01 |
jl- |
vufind uses solr :) |
| 11:01 |
jeff |
shart290__: the error you pasted appears to be a timeout between the client and server -- the client (apparently) never received a response. |
| 11:17 |
eeevil |
jl-: bibs can be "owned" in (basically) one of two way, and the way you use depends on if it's an electronic resource or a barcoded, physical item |
| 11:17 |
eeevil |
for barcoded items, attach a call number and copy owned by the "owner" |
| 11:17 |
eeevil |
for e-resources, us a located uri (856 with an appropriate subfield 9) |
| 11:20 |
bshum |
jl-: Huh... so in your test system I can't find any copies. How did you make the bibs visible in search? (aka, did you just mark them as trascendent or something) |
| 11:24 |
bshum |
What I would normally expect in a migration is that the original MARC exported from the legacy ILS would have some sort of holdings tag containing basic info like barcode, call number, price, whatever. And then you would map those to callnumbers/copies in Evergreen, that linked to each given bib. |
| 11:25 |
dbwells |
jl-: If you are building an Evergreen instance from two (or more) catalogs that are currently independant (and it sounds to me like you are), you are going to want to combine and dedupe all the records from every system, preferably at an early point. This will not be a particularly straightforward task, and I doubt it's represented in the docs in any way. In fact, depending on how varied the records in your current catalogs are, it could be a monumen |
| 11:25 |
dbwells |
tal task by itself. |
| 11:25 |
bshum |
In Evergreen, bibs are all stored in biblio.record_entry, but there's the item holdings which are reflected in asset.call_number (which points back to a specific record ID), and then asset.copy (which points back at specific call number IDs) for each bib. |
| 11:38 |
bshum |
But that also depends on how the system is intended to be used / searched, I guess. |
| 11:40 |
bshum |
But let's say that having combined bibs saves you room in the database. |
| 11:42 |
bshum |
In any case, I would create all the libraries you think you're going to need as org-unit entries. Just so that you get the sorted. And then as you bring in new bib/copies, you just need to figure out how to correctly mark the volume/copies as owned by a specific org unit. You could leave bib deduplication to later on. |
| 11:42 |
jl- |
I understand, this seems very important but for now I think it would be overkill. If I can have two orgs with copies each, that would be fantastic |
| 11:42 |
jl- |
and if I have some duplicates, that's ok for testing the ILS |
| 11:43 |
jl- |
with this I mean deduplication |
| 11:43 |
jl- |
:) |
| 11:43 |
bshum |
yes, you can always create multiples of bibs, so basically like the "Star Wars" example, lots of times over. But you just set the ownership for each call number / copy accordingly. |
| 11:43 |
bshum |
And eventually poke at merging things. |
| 11:43 |
jl- |
anyway, so how do I actually attach copies, is there documentation? I have an items.txt with 400 entries |
| 13:37 |
jeff |
so you might have records with 856 tags that point to things like "author info" at loc.gov, etc. those aren't treated specially (assuming they don't have those values for ind1/ind2 and an appropriate subfield 9) |
| 13:37 |
jl- |
jeff: I want to create a subfield 9 in 856 and give it a shortname which I'll use for an org unit |
| 13:40 |
jl- |
marcedit will let me add any field and field data |
| 13:41 |
jeff |
i would recommend starting with a single test record. |
| 13:42 |
jeff |
ensure that you're getting the behavior you want before doing any kind of batch/mass updates. |
| 13:50 |
jl- |
yuo |
| 13:50 |
jl- |
yup |
| 13:51 |
jl- |
bshum: it seems like I can batch edit (and add) fields to records in the staff client, so it seems like adding an org shortname would not have to happen prior to importing ? |
| 15:32 |
dbwells |
bshum jeff: so what was the real reason for the ++s, or are you just going to leave us in the dark? |
| 15:33 |
jeff |
oh, sorry. i thought someone explained it. |
| 15:33 |
bshum |
Working on things for the community web server. |
| 15:34 |
jeff |
GPLS has taken some spare hardware and finished initial provisioning as a community VM host, so that things like the git and web servers can be on hardware that more than just csharp can restart, potentially other things like test servers/buildbots, etc. |
| 15:34 |
hbrennan |
Haha. Glad I wasn't the only curious one |
| 15:35 |
jeff |
A step toward csharp being able to go on vacation. :-) |
| 15:35 |
dbwells |
jeff: Is this what csharp and a few others of us were chatting about at the end of the conference? |
| 16:35 |
jeff |
jl-: and since none of the records appear to have visible copies, I'm assuming that their bib source is transcendent, which as eeevil noted is "the ballgame" :-) |
| 16:36 |
jeff |
at this point, i'm not sure we have enough information to recommend for/against the use of opac.located_uri.act_as_copy |
| 16:36 |
jeff |
(in jl-'s situation) |
| 16:37 |
eeevil |
jeff: true. if these are bibs that correspond to physical items on shelves in a library, the best thing to do would be to get that data from the current system and attache the items. minimally, that would be the call number label and the barcode. all else is of little import for a surface test of the system |
| 16:38 |
eeevil |
jl-: -^ |

Usually, I might select one to import non-matching and then select just one of the others to tell the system how to do the merge. I don't think it's typical to select all three. |
| 14:15 |
kmlussier |
We have some sites that only want the system to merge automatically if there is a single match, but if there are more they want to address it manually. |
| 14:15 |
sseng |
kmlussier: bshum: wanted to confirm that in master, whether the Marc batch importer/exporter works or whether i have somehing bad going on with my test environment |
| 14:15 |
kmlussier |
Other systems prefer to let Vandelay do all of the merging and will just tell it to select the best match. |
| 14:16 |
bshum |
In theory everything in master should be working, unless there's a bug filed about it. Or at least I like to dream that's the case. |

But in this particular case, please feel free to collect some details and let us know. Overall, the vandelay situation was complicated due to underlying changes made with MVF/CRA's addition |
| 14:16 |
bshum |
And we may not have shaken all the issues? |
| 14:17 |
bshum |
I would test more, but today is a "holiday" and nobody at Biblio is around. Other than those of us migrating our email to a new solution. |
| 14:17 |
kmlussier |
sseng: I did successfully do an acq upload on a recent version of master, but I didn't try anything in the batch import, so it's possible something else is going on there. |
| 14:17 |
bshum |
fwiw, mllewellyn did do a vandelay load of around 29 or so I think she said |
| 14:18 |
bshum |
And that seemed to go through without hijinks |
| 14:18 |

But maybe it's size, or maybe it's the options used |
