@davebryand: if you don’t have a full pro version which supports [HA](http://docs.datomic.com/ha.html), yes.

Ben Kamphaus02:12:17

With an HA configuration, instead of transactor B barging in (at which case transactor A sees it’s no longer got a unique, current claim on heartbeat), transactor B will start in standby mode where it will only take over if transactor A misses two heartbeats (plus a little tolerance).

Ben Kamphaus02:12:52

With pro starter/free, transactor B doesn’t enter standby mode, so it claims heartbeat at which point transactor A self destructs.

Bingo—great explanation, thanks @bkamphaus

Loving Datomic, btw. Great work by the whole team

laforge49 [2:04 PM] Newbie datomic question. Getting started. C:\datomic-pro\datomic-pro-0.9.5344>bin\groovysh.cmd Dec 09, 2015 2:01:15 PM java.util.prefs.WindowsPreferences <init> WARNING: Could not open/create prefs root node Software\JavaSoft\Prefs at root 0x80000002. Windows RegCreateKeyEx(...) returned error code 5.

Hopefully this will be the end of it. I'm running windows 10, which might have been part of the problem. simple_smile

@laforge49: why open a groovy shell . When I did the beginners tutorial I did everything in repl

roelof16:12:53

I opened getting_started,clj in my ide

laforge4916:12:04

Just following the tutorial. As for opening a repel in my IDE, I'm using cursive and frankly have never opened a repl that way--I use lein.

roelof16:12:25

I can help you with that easily

roelof16:12:32

Im also a cursive user

roelof16:12:52

shall we di it in private

laforge4916:12:15

could you just post a pointer? I'm trying to renew my health care coverage right now. 😄

roelof16:12:38

it only 5 - 6 steps

roelof16:12:02

if you do want to do it later it's also no problem

laforge4916:12:02

On hold at the moment but I may be torn away at any point.

laforge4916:12:10

ok, sounds better.

roelof16:12:33

can be that im then making or eating dinner

roelof16:12:54

it's now dinner time in the Netherlands

laforge4916:12:11

not a real worry. can probably find something on the web and if not, post something to the clojure chat.

laforge4916:12:49

--it was a few days back I started digging into datomic and hopefully today I can get back to it.

@laforge49: see the pinned items in this channel; one of them is some getting-started recipes from the clojure cookbook simple_smile

Ben Kamphaus20:12:38

A lot of people miss this on the tutorial page, but the examples are provided in Clojure and Java in the datomic directory as well - e.g. (assuming latest version directory name) datomic-pro-0.9.5344/samples/seattle/getting-started.clj
