66 @aGlance/IT Server Interface
The Micro-DCI @aGlance/IT Server communicates using TCP/IP. If you have questions about TCP/IP or
about Internet host names in use at your site, see your system administrator. If you have questions about
the options on or configuration via this display, see the on-line help text available from the Help button.
Information about client nodes and client users is configured using the Proxies option, which is described
in
Section 8.3 .
8.2.2 Starting a Server and Server Names
Typically, the maximum number of @aGlance/IT servers for which the node is licensed are started when
the system is started. A Server started automatically by the system will be assigned a default name in the
format:
EBi<node name>
where the i is an index number used to identify the server, and the <node name> is the name of the node
(Micro-PWC system) on which the server is running. For example, if the node named CON4 is licensed for
two servers, two servers will be started automatically. The servers will be named
EB1CON4 and EB2CON4.
A maximum of two @aGlance/IT servers can run simultaneously on a Micro-PWC system, and each of
these servers can have up to 10 simultaneous client connections.
8.2.2.1 Starting a Server with Non-Default Options
It is possible to customize parameters such as Server Name and Interval for the servers which are started
automatically on system start up. To do so, you must create a file named
aagServ.dat in the directory
\PWC\data. Each line in this file is an entry that includes the options which define one server.
For example, to define two servers, named "spock" and "tuvok", each with a monitor interval of 3 seconds,
the
aagServ.dat file would consist of the following lines:
-s spock -m -i 3
-s tuvok -m -i 3
Available server start-up options are described in Table 8-1 .
Table 8-1. Options for Use When Starting a Server
OPTION AND
<ARGUMENT>
DESCRIPTION
-server <server name> The argument supplied with this option is the name to be used for the
@aGlance/IT server. The server name can have a maximum of 20
characters. If this option is omitted, the default server name "aagServer" will
be used. On a system licensed for the @aGlance/IT server for Micro-DCI,
the number of servers for which the system is licensed will be started
automatically when the system is booted. (The maximum number of servers
per node is 2.)
-nsessions <number> The argument (number) supplied with this option determines the maximum
number of sessions allowed for the @aGlance server. The maximum number
of sessions allowed per server is 10, which is the default used if the
-nsessions option is not specified. If an argument with a value less than 1 is
supplied with this option, the number of sessions will be set to 1. If an
argument with a value greater than 10 is supplied, the number of sessions will
be set to 10.
