WAVECOM EasySat System for W-PCI/e V1.1.00 User Manual
'EasySatSystemWP' must be told which PCs hosting which W-PCI/e cards it must coordinate. This is done
with the configuration file EasySATSystemWP.ini, which is, by default, located in the directory
<easysatsystem_config_dir>. An alternative location can be specified by means of the environment varia-
ble EASYSATSYSTEM_CONFIG_DIR.
In the EasySATSystemWP.ini file, one can also specify the sessions to exclusively be watched by listing the
respective MES Ids; if no MES Id is specified, then all sessions will be watched.
If required, ‘EasySatSystemWP’ collects statistical data concerning the monitored sessions. In such a case,
when exiting ‘EasySatSystemWP’, a text file is stored in the directory <easysatsystem_data_dir> or in the
directory specified by the environment variable EASYSATSYSTEM_DATA_DIR if it is set. The name of such
a file is ‘Stat<dateAndTime>.txt’, where <dateAndTime> denotes the date and time (including seconds)
of the log-file creation, which occurs at the end of a monitoring session with ‘EasySatSystemWP’. Be
aware that such a file may become quite large. To enable statistical logging a sampling interval (in sec-
onds) greater than 0 has to be specified in EasySATSystemWP.ini. Only the first valid value specified will
be used, if several are given in EasySATSystemWP.ini.
The configuration file is 'EasySATSystemWP.ini' (case-insensitive).
Following are two examples of valid configuration files. Example 1 shows the configuration file for a sys-
tem with 4 cards configured for INMARSAT-B, 1 for INMARSAT-M and 5 for INMARSAT-mini-M, residing on
2 different PCs (localhost 127.0.0.1 and Test-pc). All MES Ids shall be considered and no statistical data
shall be collected.
In Example 2, the system to be monitored consists of 3 different PCs and 4 cards: The local one
(127.0.0.1) with one card and two remote hosts, 123.45.67.89 with one card and ComputerA with two
cards. On all cards INMARSAT-B transmissions with specific MES Ids shall be monitored. Statistical data
shall be collected every 30 seconds.
