J.2 Common settings for products that use JP1/SES events
Set the following parameters in the event server settings file (conf) as necessary.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) users { * | user-name } ...
You need to specify user names in this parameter if there are no user names in the file you specified in the include ses-conf or include ajs-conf parameter. However, note that specifying an asterisk (*) does not signify that all users can obtain events.
In Windows, you must specify a system or SYSTEM user name. If you do not specify a name, the event server cannot start. In UNIX, specify the superuser name (usually root) and adm as the user name.
(2) eventids {* | basic-code | basic-code:extended-code}...
You need to specify user names in this parameter if there are no user names in the file you specified in the include ses-conf or include ajs-conf parameter. However, note that specifying an asterisk (*) does not signify that all event IDs can be obtained.
(3) buffnum JP1/SES-event-count
This parameter specifies the number of JP1/SES events to be saved for a program that obtains JP1/SES events. When the number of registered JP1/SES events reaches this value, JP1/SES events are deleted, starting from the oldest ones, and the events can no longer be retrieved. Specify a number from 2500 to 10000 for UNIX, or specify a number from 64 to 2048 for Windows. When no event count is specified, the defaults are 2,500 (in UNIX) and 1,024 (in Windows).
(4) include ses-conf file-name
This parameter specifies the following items to be included from the JP1/SES environment definition file: the user name (USER), the event ID (EVIDxxxx) values, and the number of buffers (BUFFNUM). The included BUFFNUM value supersedes the buffnum parameter value specified in the event server settings file (conf). The user name and event ID values are the sum of the included values and the values specified in the event server settings file (conf).
In file-name, specify a full path for the file name. This specification is invalid in the Windows version of JP1/Base, but valid in the UNIX version.
(5) include ajs-conf
This parameter specifies the following items specified in the JP1/ASJ - EE settings dialog box to be included: the UNIX user ID, UNIX group ID, user name, the event ID values, and the maximum number of events. The included maximum event count, UNIX user ID, and UNIX group ID override the values specified in the buffnum and alt-userid parameters in the event server settings file (conf). The user name and event ID values are the sum of the included values and the values specified in the event server settings file (conf).
This parameter is valid only in the Windows version of JP1/Base, not in the UNIX version.
(6) options [conv-off]
This parameter inhibits the event acquisition function. When you specify conv-off, no JP1 events are passed to the JP1/SES compatibility event acquisition functions, which improves the JP1 event receipt and transfer performance. When this flag is set, the JP1/SES compatibility event acquisition functions cannot get JP1 events. Similarly, the JP1/AJS-compatible command, ajsevget, cannot get JP1 events. This flag does not affect functions other than the JP1/SES compatibility event acquisition functions and the ajsevget command. The following list shows whether events can be received when conv-off is specified:
|
Event to be received |
