Our Maximo

 Why I am saying this because thier is huge cost in development which developer's are asking. companies look for developing software / maintaining it enhancing it......we require developers... Some company spend 40percent on it... Now this was done in old languages using C / Cobol/C++........... For this we require expertise.. Now in newer languages like .Net, Ruby......anyone can work because of those IDE's and simplification of Syntax so we dont need  many expertise and we can work with avg. developers.... So slowly in future software's will come where AI / ML will be so strong that we dont need developers to write code all will be done by instructions even by verbal instructions......(dont worry support will always be their..........) Also in new languages we require less no of developers due to automations.....which saves cost...

 Sometimes we have an issue and after spending hours we can't identify how this has been occurred after our new deployment........ There comes to rescue Maximo Integrity Check. Maximo Integration Checker utility checks integrity of your Database as per Maximo's best practices..it should run after every deploment or upgrade or Ifix applying.. Note do not run it in Repair mode (untill IBM PMR team ask you ) run in report mode. Its logs are saved to Maximo/logs/integrityXXXX.log steps  Stop the serer. Open command prompt Go to c:\ibm\SMP\maximo\tools\maximo  Run integrityui.bat  from command prompt  Click on Check integrity tab  and click run integrity tab Click ok.

 Check Technical document for the integration...  Check Logs.. Check publish channel for Skip rule, User exit classes and Integration Scripts.. Check crontask (ifaceconsume, Sequential Consume is On)  Check Message in External system (add/modify queues) Check integration Bus Check message Tracking Check if the error is found in Ifix or something? Check classes with error....to debug... Ask Customer if you dont know these questions. When this issue occur 2.

 Java Interview Concepts A Functional interface should have only 1 abstract method. All Non static methods of an interface should be abstract. When we write code we have to write too many null checks else we get Null point exception inorder to avoid it Optional class came in Java 8. Two methods 1. static <T> Optional<T> ofNullable(T value) 2. orElse(T other) Returns the value if present, otherwise returns other. Returns an Optional describing the specified value, if non-null, otherwise returns an empty Optional Enum Constructor must be private.
