DESCRIPTION

calcappclient is a Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) pool user (PU) for the CalcApp performance testing service. For a detailed description of the underlying protocol, see https://duepublico.uni-duisburg-essen.de/servlets/DerivateServlet/Derivate-16326/Dre2006_final.pdf .

ARGUMENTS

The following options are available:

-poolhandle=pool_handle

Sets the PH to a non-default value; otherwise, the default setting is "CalcAppPool".

Service Parameters:

-jobinterval=seconds

Sets the job interval in seconds. Floating-point values (e.g. 30.125) are possible.

-jobsize=seconds

Sets the job size in seconds. Floating-point values (e.g. 8.75) are possible.

-keepalivetransmissioninterval=milliseconds

Sets the session keep-alive interval in milliseconds.

-keepalivetimeoutinterval=milliseconds

Sets the session keep-alive timeout in milliseconds.

-object=name

Sets the object name for scalar hierarchy.

-runtime=seconds

After the configured number of seconds, the service is shut down. Floating-point values (e.g. 30.125) are possible.

-scalar=scalar_file

Sets the name of vector scalar file.

-vector=vector_file

Sets the name of vector output file.

ASAP Protocol Parameters:

-registrar=address:port

Adds a static PR entry into the Registrar Table. It is possible to add multiple entries.

-registrarannouncetimeout=milliseconds

Sets the timeout for ASAP announces via multicast.

-registrarconnecttimeout=milliseconds

Sets the timeout for ASAP connection establishment.

-registrarconnectmaxtrials=trials

Sets the maximum number of ASAP connection establishment trials.

-registrarrequesttimeout=milliseconds

Sets the timeout for ASAP requests.

-registrarresponsetimeout=milliseconds

Sets the timeout for waiting to receive ASAP responses.

-registrarrequestmaxtrials=trials

Sets the maximum number of ASAP request trials.

Component Status Protocol (CSP) Parameters:

-cspinterval=milliseconds

Sets the interval for the CSP status updates in milliseconds. By default, the content of the environment variable CSP_INTERVAL is used. If not defined, no CSP status reports will be sent.

-cspserver=address:port

Sets the address of a CSP monitor server. By default, the content of the environment variable CSP_SERVER is used. If not defined, no CSP status reports will be sent.

Logging Parameters:

-logappend=filename

Write logging output to a file (default is stdout); output will be appended to given file.

-logcolor=on|off

Turns ANSI colorization of the logging output on or off.

-logfile=filename

Write logging output to a file (default is stdout); given file will be overwritten.

-loglevel=0-9

Sets the logging verbosity from 0 (none) to 9 (very verbose). It is recommended to use at least a value of 2 to see possibly important error messages and warnings.

ENVIRONMENT

calcappclient uses the environment variables CSP_SERVER and CSP_INTERVAL to define a CSP server to send reports to in the specified interval.

DIAGNOSTICS

If loglevel>0, log messages will be printed to stdout or into a specified log file.
