Garbage Collector in NAV 2009

Today I learned one new thing: Garbage collector in NAV 2009 is set to DISABLED by default. Do not ask me what does it mean and why it is disabled. I do not know. Regardless the value DISABLED, this settings just means that Workstation mode is used for GC. Microsoft NAV team have learned, that by enabling it, you can speed up the NAV Server! Are you asking how you can enable it? It is easy, you need only to add this into the Microsoft.Dynamics.NAV.Server.exe.config file: <configuration> <runtime>...

NAVTechDays memories

I am sitting in Brussels airport and I am waiting for my flight. What to do? Ok, I think that after the TechDays I cannot say „there is nothing to blog about“. Just the opening keynotes were source for many articles about different things in NAV „7“, because they were published there and I can blog about them now. Or I can blog about other great sessions which were presented during these two days. Or I can just blog about people I have met there... Ok, I try to select just...

Overlooked new parameter in NAV 2009

It is some time I have noticed one small change which is not described or I never see it in some official documentation (excluding help files). You know the drill when you need to pass temporary table: You pass it as parameter by reference, or you copy the records one by one. Sometime you will use the first, sometime you will use the second. Now, you have new possibility: Rec.COPY You are thinking: “Oh, wait, it is not copying the data inside, only filters etc.!” It is not true anymore. If you look...

Dynamics NAV 2009 and SPNs

Everyone, who once tried to install NAV 2009 Server to separate computer than MS SQL Server, needed to solve one “mystery”: how to set the SPNs correctly. Today I will try to uncover the fog around the SPNs and how to set them correctly. At first, I am not expert in this area too. I will try to describe everything as “I understand it”. It means, it could not be fully true, but it works for me. I know that there are already different articles about NAV and SPNs but I have found...

NAV Service Tier management tool for NAV 2009 R2

Today I have finished first version of my remake of the NST Management application. Now, completely done inside NAV! I wanted to test the DotNet interop in NAV 2009 R2, and I have found, that it works, and it works without any problem! Because I already knew what I needed to do the NST management, it was easy to replicate the app from C# into C/AL. If you look at the code, it is easy! Just few lines of code to read all available SQL server, to read databases on the SQL server, to show folder selection...
