LDN - Luminis Developer Network

We found a virus on the sql server today which caused the system to crash. We are now upgrading to sql 2003 and we can't sync up Luminis. Has anyone run into this problem? We are down and thought someone may have experienced this. We're on Luminis III.3.3.
Thanks

Attached is the perl script we use to check the LDI queue. We run this script on the Luminis host, and set it to query the associated Banner database that would be sending the LDI events to Luminis. It is run as a cron job every 30 minutes.

This script was written to connect to Oracle, but you could modify it for any database that perl DBI has drivers for.

Attached is the perl script that we use to monitor SSO connections across all of our Luminis servers. We run it from a completely separate server, just in case there are problems that could not be spotted by running it on the same box as Luminis. It is called via cron every 12 minutes.

The script used to be used with the old style "Banner Authenticator" method of single sign-on, and it is now working for us using the new "MidTier" method.

I think it should be commented sufficiently well so that you can make this work in your environment, but feel free to ask questions.

Lum v4.0.2.41 build 41. Intermittently slows to crawl where no one can login or navigate. prstat -J shows jvsc process using up to 51% cpu with load avgs 6 to 15 to omg. No tuning recommendations from Sungard or Sun gudes have helped. Lum iv has to be restarted. 3x this week so far.

So, been investigating parallel deploy. Has anyone tried this config rather than parallel deploy?
Add another webserver (portal tier).
Rather than use a load balancer, segregate the traffic from different network segments.

I'm trying to create a custom SSO Icon linked to the WebCT (Vista) MyBlackboard homepage.

I have the SSO to WebCT working in the MyCourses channel. These links go directly to the course homepage and are working great. Now my users want a link (icon) to the MyBlackboard page. I have followed the directions in the UI Customization Guide but I received a 404 error. I looked at the nested-table.xsl and change the wURL to a bad course ID URL. This works for the icon but now all the links in MyCourse goes to the MyBlackboard page.

Is there any way I can get this working? Thanks.

Using the AjaxRequests channel – some examples

Recently, villiam has introduced our new AjaxRequests channel. We decided to work up some examples illustrating how to use it in different ways.

This is an ABC or 101 question.
We have created a user-defined roles, such as faculty_mailing_list, which includes all faculty and a few administrators who need to know what info/news sent to faculty. We can see this role listed on Table GORIROL for those who should have this role.
We have learned that we should write an event trigger so that if a new person is qualified for this role, an event will be fired and the system will get all related info for this person and publishes to LMB.

I've been on lumdev for a while. But I seem to be losing my mind. :)

I'm not positive, but I really thought there was a way that I, as a user, could bookmark other blog entries, etc. Like a "favorites" kind of (besides using the browser favorites)
Is there a way in Lumdev to do this, and if so, could someone point me in the right direction?

Going crazy,

Anyone who has looked around on this website (or in certain section of documentation) for any length of time has probably come across nested-tables.xsl. This file is the "starting point" for the portal rendering. XSL works by taking an XML input file (generated from Java services), transforming it, and spitting out HTML as an end product. The result is what you see in your browser after you login to the portal.

Can anyone help me in finding Luminus III or IV installer or tell me procedure how to set it up for my test environment.

Thanks
