DAS recognition of iwextattr

Hi,
I have a question about DAS (DD 5.5.2). In the manual it is mentioned on page 176 that the iw.cfg has to be modified to enable DAS to recognize TeamSite events (things like using CLTs like iwextattr). The described setting log_setea=yes looks like if it affects only the log file but DAS ignores the event.
Could someone provide me some information if there is another setting than the log_* one described in the manual

Thanx!

Best Regards
Andreas

DAS currently doesn't process/support those SetEA and DeleteEA events. Partly because these events are generated once for every EA you set using iwextattr. If you need metadata to be deployed using DAS, use File -> Set Metadata option.

Hi,

thank you very much for the information. It's a pity, I think the manual should be corrected because this is obviously wrong and people spend time trying to get it up and running.
Do you know any other way to combine DAS with WF assigned EAs (without user interaction)?

After you assign the EAs in the Workflow, you can execute one of the deployments in iwhome/conf/mdc_dd.cfg file, depending on where you want the data to be deployed. Typically, if this is a submit workflow, you need to execute the "submitlist" deployment in mdc_dd.cfg. Deployments in a DAS configuration file require a lot of values to be dynamically generated for the "$" variables.

One thing you can do is to simulate the "SyncModify" event, to get the metadata on the files to the delta tables. For this, you need to invoke iwsyncdb.ipl with appropriate arguments. You can find the arguments expected for SyncModify event at the top of iwsyncdb.ipl file itself. See if that helps.

one way to get the WA back in sync after using the CLT to set attributes to to do a "get latest", provided there's anything to get. This will cause DAS to sync whatever EA's you've set. Is it automatic and without user input? It could be.

Does anyone know if this is still the case? I had forgotten about it, and I was having a problem trying to sync some data that a workflow sets via an eastartop to a db, which led me back around to this. Anyone know if there is a bug id for it?

So, it's looking like this is still an open issue in 6.5SP2.

Looks like the od6.1.1.ddadmin manual has been updated to correctly specify log_setEA=no as the event is not recognized by DAS.

Is anyone using Event Subsystem to register for DAS events instead of the log route ?
