DESCRIPTION
calcappclient is a Reliable Server Pooling (RSerPool) pool user (PU) for
the CalcApp performance testing service. For a detailed description of

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.
