646.0. "PowerBuilder clients supports ??" by NETRIX::"Eddy.Wang@hgo.mts.dec.com" (HKTS) Thu Feb 20 1997 08:07

Hi,

Is PowerBuilder clients supports on Alpha NT Cluster ??  
Customer encounters connection problem on PowerBuilder client on top 
of SQL client.  

Anyone knows if PowerBuilder should be supported ??  According to document,
only ODBC and DB-libary (ie. SQL client) are supported.

Rgds,

646.1Powerbuilder on Intel ClusterCHEFS::vfr750.reo.dec.com::harrisonbThu Feb 20 1997 13:3311
Hi, 

	I've had a customer who used powerbuilder on his clients connecting to an intel cluster.
This did work, however there were some performance problems. Basically the customer had to install
the new redirector on his sql client software. Now it works beautifully (400 inserts into a tabelin 1/2 
sec)

646.3I'll try to find outSUTRA::16.37.8.133::BatsSpeeding, speeding, I'm always speedingFri Feb 21 1997 09:5911
The Customer did not say where he got it from, I will however try and find out.

The customer was trying row inserts into a 2 column table.

Originally he was getting ~1 insert/sec,
with the new redirector he got ~400 inserts  1/2 sec

646.4Good news ??NETRIX::"Eddy.Wang@hgo.mts.dec.com"HKTSTue Feb 25 1997 00:0614
Hi,

Let me brief a bit.  My Customer is using 2 x AlphaServer1000A 96M RAM with 
a RA310 12GB HD.  Client is only an Compaq Pentium PC running Win95 with 
SQL client plus PowerBuilder client.  

Everything is working perfectly fine before but after the Server side got 
re-installation, the client cannot connect to the cluster.  Only if we 
remove the PowerBuilder on client then it works again!

Your earliest advice will be very appreciated.
