Session

General settings that control the execution of CHARON Virtual Machine (VM) belong to an object called the "session". It is a preloaded object; therefore, only "set" commands are necessary. 

Example:

set session <parameter>=<value>

 

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

hw_model

Parameter

hw_model

Type

Text string

Value

Virtual HP Alpha 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="AlphaServer_ES40"

Available models are:

  • AlphaServer_AS400

  • AlphaServer_AS800

  • AlphaServer_AS1000

  • AlphaServer_AS1000A

  • AlphaServer_AS1200

  • AlphaServer_AS2000

  • AlphaServer_AS2100

  • AlphaServer_AS4000

  • AlphaServer_AS4100

  • AlphaServer_DS10

  • AlphaServer_DS10L

  • AlphaServer_DS15

  • AlphaServer_DS20

  • AlphaServer_DS25

  • AlphaServer_ES40

  • AlphaServer_ES45

  • AlphaServer_GS80

  • AlphaServer_GS160

  • AlphaServer_GS320

Refer to this section to find how to set a particular HP Alpha model supported by CHARON-AXP.

configuration_name

Parameter

configuration_name

Type

Text string

Value

Name of the CHARON VM (it must be unique):

set session configuration_name="MSCDV1"

  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 VM 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).

It is strictly recommended to use the "configuration_name" parameter if more than one CHARON VM runs on the same server.
