draining Arabic in Urdu!



gradually at the end of Zia era, i saw some Urdu words/phrase got Arabic conversion, even few are subject to FATWA-e-kufar, and mostly Pakistanis become highly speculate about their correct Arabic version use, some of them are now everyday practice, and original word/phrase has taken to act of kufar.

some for example:

1. khuda hafiz - allah hafiz

2. apna khayal rakhna - allah nigebaan

3. shukria - jazakallah

4. god - God

5. allah - Allah

6. bohat khoob, bohat ala = mashallah

7. every statement for future tense start with inshallah.

8. adaab/salam - initially to salam-o-alykum and lately Asalam-o-alykum in certain situation even Asalam-o-alykum wa rahmatullah.

9. naming person with one of the allah's 99 names - start with "abdul" and the person must always be called using "abdul" e.g. abdul samad, abdul shakoor etc...

10. shab-a-kher - allah hafiz

later this whole Urdu-Arabic back-and-fourth saga was clinch in three major factors:


1. introducing Arabic language as as subject in high schools curriculum, specially in Federal Board affiliated schools.

2. beard men initially lazy/philosophical look - lately became symbol of religious personality, even beard men were started calling mulvi saab, sufi saab etc...

3. shalwar kameez & kurta pajamaa suddenly became Islamic dress.

multiple ORACLE Documaker instances reading single jms/hornetq issue.

Documaker's snail waxed zero size PDF's on our production environment, and it took me a day to figure it out, whats wrong with it! :(

below is the setup we had in our production environment.


whats happening here is, that two Documaker instances are reading from single/same jms/hornetq queue, and as Documaker does not have any identifier mechanism for soap messages, as it seems both tries to hold the message and somehow destroys the soap message arrived from ETPM in jms queue, so both Documaker instances endup with generating ZERO size PDF's.

the workaround is to run single Documaker instance per jms/hornetq queue. But this way you d'nt have real time fail-over for Documaker, you have to do manual switching in case of failure!

cheers.

hornetQ high available cluster, step by step

well, unlike jboss cluster, hornetq cluster work on shared/common storage space that could be a SAN shared disc or even NFS mount, though best option is SAN disc, you must keep in mind that both cluster members will not write simultaneously on shared disc as oracle RAC do, but they will use it to validate master/live server health, soon master/live server die, slave/backup server will replace it and from passive started state will move to active started state and all persistent messages of queues will be served from slave/backup server. This failover process is automatic, even when master/live server will come back online, the slave/backup server will again set itself automatically to passive started mode and will leave master/slave to take the control of queues and client requests/responses.

hornetQ offer two type of cluster solution i.e. load-balance plus failover and just failover not load-balance, in our case we is used just failover not load-balance. i have little edited the official hornetq cluster diagram, below, because for no good reason they made shared storage in two separate places and then the storage show no link among each other, while actually it must be single storage with link to both Live and Backup server.


for more details you must consult official guide or check below my step by step for hornetQ cluster installation.

the startup script was made by our development team as they like to pass JVM arguments inside script, though yo can use default run.sh which is more easy to understand.

find below step by step for hornetQ high available cluster.

ETPM, Documaker, JMS, LDAP, Database, Conceptual and abstract workflow diagram

ladies, if you are unable to understand how ORACLE ETPM, ORACLE Documaker, JMS/HornetQ, LDAP/OpenDS and Database/Exadata should work together, here is the lazy drawn diagram, i hope you will get an idea about what i have been implementing recently :)

you may consider it as ETPM application data center conceptual design as well;
