Overview
fractalpooluser is a Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) pool user (PU) for the FractalGenerator service. It uses a Qt-based X11 GUI.
Arguments
The following options are available:
-identifier=PU_identifier-
Sets a fixed PU identifier. Handle with care!
-poolhandle=pool_handle-
Sets the PH to a non-default value; otherwise, the default setting is "FractalGeneratorPool".
- Service Parameters:
-
-configdir=directory-
Sets a directory to look for FGP config files. From all FGP files (pattern: *.fgp) in this directory, random files are selected for the calculation of requests.
-caption=window_title-
Sets the output window title.
-width=pixels-
Sets the width of the window and the images to be calculated.
-height=pixels-
Sets the height of the window and the images to be calculated.
-threads=threads-
Sets the number of parallel sessions to use for processing of each image.
-sendtimeout=milliseconds-
Sets the transmission timeout.
-recvtimeout=milliseconds-
Sets the receive timeout.
-interimagetime=seconds-
Sets the pause time between two image calculations in seconds.
-imagestorageprefix=file_name_prefix-
Sets a file name prefix for saving the calculated images. If set, each successfully calculated image is stored to the given location as PNG file, with a 6-digit file number added.
-colormarks-
Turns on color change on session failover.
-nocolormarks-
Turns off color change on session failover.
-sessions-
Turns on color change between different sessions.
-nosessions-
Turns off color change between different sessions.
- 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:
-
-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.
-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.
- Logging Parameters:
-
-logappend=filename-
Write logging output to a file (default is stdout); output will be appended to given file.
-logcolor=on|off-

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
fractalpooluser 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.
