Micro-PWC CONFIGURATION GUIDE
@aGlance/IT Server Interface 313
• Host name of the remote host (the host on which the @aGlance/IT client which started this
session resides)
• Start time; i.e., the time the client session was initiated in the format HH:MM:SS DD-MMM-YY
Additional information is available about each active session. To view information about a session, click the
desired entry in the list box then click the View button found at the bottom of the @aGlance Server View
window. An @aGlance Session Detail View window will be displayed.
This window provides information about the requests initiated by the server during the selected active ses-
sion. An @aGlance/IT client requests data using features known a methods. Corresponding call backs
exist in the server. When an @aGlance/IT client issues a call to an @aGlance/IT method, the correspond-
ing callback in the server provides the information to the client. The @aGlance Session Detail View win-
dow lists the available callbacks for the active session, the number of transactions performed per callback,
the number of tags and the number of atoms requested per callback. This information is cumulative over
the life of the session and is lost when the session ends.
11.2.7 Backup/Restore @aGlance/IT Configuration
Use Utilities > Backup/Restore to back up @aGlance/IT configuration data. @aGlance/IT configuration
data is backed up as part of the Micro-PWC configuration, and is present as a selectable option on the
Micro-PWC Configuration Data window. Refer to the Micro-PWC Operator’s Manual for details on how to
use the utility.
11.3 Supported Features for Use with @aGlance/IT Clients
11.3.1 @aGlance/IT Methods Supported
When an @aGlance/IT client application requests information from another system running an aGlance/IT
server, a set of parameters is passed from the client application to the @aGlance/IT client software. The
@aGlance/IT client software locates the system on which the desired server is running and connects to the
server. The @aGlance/IT client instructs the server which function (known as a method), to execute, and
passes on the parameters from the client application. The method specified by the @aGlance/IT client
software corresponds to a callback function in the server. A call_back list in the @aGlance/IT server soft-
ware registers the available callback functions. (If there is no corresponding callback function in the server
the request will fail.)
The Micro-PWC @aGlance/IT server supports the methods listed in Table 11-2 .
✎ Note
