Dear Marcel,
i would be grateful for Your advice/help to resolve my (i hope simple) strategy plan make happen I'll try to put as simple status as i can. Right now i'm starting up new physical server (storage over 30TB compared to old 8TB). I've already set up 6 conquest instances to have them eventually connected with different modality machines (earlier it was one conquest per all) and 1 conquest gateway for client's workstations. Everything is based on Oracle Linux with mysql (as i was writing with You earlier on forum). Old server has to be up and running until i have everything online on new one, bad info is i have so little time (just 95GB space left).
I've already copied whole data (over 7.5TB) of xr,dx,ct,mr exams from old server to new storage. I'm using temporary dgate instance where i've reinitialised db from these 7.5TB exams so i could now divide that chaotic magazine info earlier prepared, smaller conquest instances (by machine/modality). I don't know yet how to use lua (didn't have to), maybe it would make me happy in my case but becase of notime@work i've found in documentation that i can make temporary router instance where in dicom.ini, apart of rest of default parameters i can configure null db driver and sth i tried like below:
ForwardAssociationLevel = SERIES (btw would be STUDY faster?)
ExportConverters = 3
ImportConverter0 = ifequal “%m”, “CT”; { forward to DCP2 channel *; destroy; }
ImportConverter1 = ifequal “%m”, “XR”; { forward to DCP3 channel *; destroy; }
ImportConverter2 = ifequal “%m”, “DX”; { forward to DCP3 channel *; destroy; }
When i run from temp dgate instance (where i have 7.5TB db reinitialised) command: dgate --movestudies:local,router,20100101-20200618 for few minutes system is busy but then shell is free again to write, only in top i can see that mysql is still using cpu/mem but no exam transfers occures to DCP2/DCP3 instances. Do i miss something? Or is there any simplier solution i didn't get from documentation?
ps1.
When i make the movestudies command, but directly to last target conquest instance, everything is ok but i transfer all modality exams of course, so compiled instances are working fine in my opionion.
ps2.
By the way, 7.5TB is nearly 14mln images (NKI compressed), the mysql db is about 13GB. During moving to target smaller conquest instances, i'd like to start using jpeg2000 (i have new intel scalable 2nd gen).
There is strange thing to me: on both arcnema i have n4 transfer, in target dicom.ini i have file syntax 4 and jk in dropped and incoming compression, but jk/dcm file on target is sometimes twice bigger than n4/v2 file on source, is sth wrong with my compilation/configuration or just NKI is today much better, source is ~512KB, target is 1.2MB and is seems to me as uncompressed dcm despite jk defined.
OK, now i see i'm using first 1.5v and there was update fix for nki/jpeg compression on github, going to recompile.
ps.3
is compression nki or jpeg2000 multithreading or there is somekind of thread ahead during moving the studies between dgate instances?
ps.4
for my curiosity, did You Marcel saw someone using mysql table's compressed solution to handle conquest db?
Much edited but i'm during tests that is why I appreciate Your kind advices.
