# calcappclient(1)

RSerPool Client (PU) for the CalcApp service

## NAME

**calcappclient** – RSerPool Client (PU) for the CalcApp service

## SYNOPSIS

**calcappclient** \[**-poolhandle=pool\_handle**\] \[**-jobinterval=seconds**\] \[**-jobsize=calculations**\] \[**-keepalivetransmissioninterval=milliseconds**\] \[**-keepalivetimeoutinterval=milliseconds**\] \[**-object=name**\] \[**-runtime=seconds**\] \[**-scalar=scalar\_file**\] \[**-vector=vector\_file**\] \[**-cspinterval=milliseconds**\] \[**-cspserver=address:port**\] \[**-logappend=filename**\] \[**-logcolor=on\|off**\] \[**-logfile=filename**\] \[**-loglevel=0-9**\]

## 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.
