The following table describes all available "session" parameters, their meaning and examples of their usage:

hw_model

Parameter

hw_model

Type

Text string, case sensitive

Value

Virtual VAX/PDP11 system hardware model to be emulated.

Use a default configuration template for each particular model as a starting point for a custom configuration. This would ensure that the parameter is set correctly.

Example:

set session hw_model="VAX_6610"

Available models are:

  • PDP_1193

  • PDP_1194
  • MicroVAX_3100_Model_96
  • MicroVAX_3100_Model_98
  • MicroVAX_3600
  • MicroVAX_3900
  • MicroVAX_II
  • VAXserver_3600
  • VAXserver_3600
  • VAXserver_3600_128
  • VAXserver_3600_512
  • VAXserver_3900
  • VAXserver_3900_128
  • VAXserver_3900_512
  • VAX_4000_Model_106
  • VAX_4000_Model_108
  • VAX_4000_Model_700
  • VAX_4000_Model_705
  • VAX_6000_Model_310
  • VAXstation_4000_Model_90
  • VAX_6610
  • VAX_6620
  • VAX_6630
  • VAX_6640
  • VAX_6650
  • VAX_6660

configuration_name

Parameter

configuration_name

Type

Text string

Value

Name of the Charon-VAX / Charon-PDP instance (it must be unique):

set session configuration_name="MSCDV1"

(warning)  In provided templates this parameter is specified in the included configuration file "configuration_name.icfg".

The value of this parameter is used as a prefix to the event log file name (see below).

From the example above, the Charon-VAX / Charon-PDP log file will have the following name:

MSCDV1-YYYY-MM-DD-hh-mm-ss-xxxxxxxxx.log

xxxxxxxxx is an increasing decimal number starting from 000000000 to separate log files with the same time of creation (in case the log is being written faster than one log file per second).

(warning) It is strictly recommended to use the "configuration_name" parameter if more than one Charon instance runs on the same server.

log

...

Parameterlog_file_size
TypeText string
Value

If log rotation is enabled, the log_file_size parameter determines the log file size threshold at which the log is automatically rotated. Rotating log file size is multiple of 64K

  • "unlimited" or "0" (default) - the feature is disabled
  • "default" - default size is used (4Mb)
  • <size>[KMG] - size of the current log file in bytes with additional multipliers:
    • K - Kilobyte - multiply by 1024

    • M - Megabyte - multiply by 1024*1024

    • G - Gigabyte - multiply by 1024*1024*1024

Example 1:

set session log_file_size="default"

Example 2:

set session log_file_size=10M

(info) Minimum LOG File size is 64K, maximum is 1G. Setting a size less than 64K effectively makes the log file size unlimited.
