Parameterlog_method
TypeText string
Value
  • "overwrite" (default)
  • "append"

Determines if the previous log information is maintained.

 

Info

This parameter must be specified only in addition to “log” parameter on the same line.

This parameter is applicable only if the CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP log is stored to a file that is specified explicitly with the "log" parameter.

Example:

set session log="log.txt" log_method="append"

...

Parameteraffinity
TypeText string
Value

Overrides any initial process affinity mask provided by the host operating system. Once specified it binds the running instance of the emulator to particular host CPUs.

Used for soft partitioning of the host CPU resources and/or for isolating host CPUs for other applications.

By default the CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP emulator instance allocates as many host CPUs as possible. The “affinity” parameter overrides that and allows explicit specification on which host CPU the instance must run on. 

Note

The "affinity" parameter defines the total number of host CPUs to be used both for emulated VAX CPUs and for CHARON-VAX / CHARON-PDP application itself (including the CPUs to be used for I/O - they are controlled by "n_of_io_cpus" parameter described below).

Host CPUs are enumerated as a comma separated list of host system assigned CPU numbers:

set session affinity="0, 2, 4, 6"
