May 3, 2023

The Rocket Software MultiValue team is inviting all Rocket® UniVerse customers to participate in our UniVerse 11.4.1 beta program.  This is your chance to test, influence and provide feedback on UniVerse 11.4.1.  

If you decide to participate, here are some new functionality highlights you'll find in UniVerse 11.4.1 and Rocket® MultiValue Performance Experience (MVX Performance) 1.7 for customers on active maintenance.

  • We’ve enhanced HA/DR and fixed some bugs, making it easier to manage your replication environment while improving performance
    • Improve performance by implementing the Replication Intelligent Queue Manager, which allows a subscribing system to recognize when there are multiple updates in the queue to the same file
    • Easily test a new version of UniVerse on a subscribing system while still running an older version of UniVerse in production because UniVerse 11.4.1 allows a subscriber to receive logs from older protocol levels
    • Recover from stalled subscriber groups using the new uv_repadmin option
  • Works with a new version of the Rocket MVX Performance that monitors replication and licensing events including
    • Replication Suspended Event, File Merge Stalled Event, Stuck LSN Event, plus eight other replication-related events
    • Device Licensing Reached Limit event, Device Licensing Exceeded, and Database License Used event.
  • Discover bottlenecks and areas where you can improve performance in your applications using UV BASIC Profiling’s application performance analysis and insights
  • Take advantage of the dictionary compiler upgrade that includes new BASIC functions such as NOW(), TODATETIME(), TODATE(), TOTIME(), and CHANGE()
