Session

General settings that control execution of CHARON-VAX belong to an object called "session". It is a preloaded object; therefore, only "set" commands apply. 

Example:

set session <parameter>=<value>

 

The following tables describe all available "session" parameters, their meaning and examples of usage:

hw_model

Parameter

hw_model

Type

Text string

Value

Virtual VAX 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"

The models are:

  • 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 CHARON-VAX instance (unique):

set session configuration_name="MSCDV1"

The value of this parameter is used as prefix to the event log file name when multiple log files are configured (see below).

From the example above, the CHARON-VAX 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).

log

Parameter

log

Type

Text string

Value

The log file or directory name is where the log file for each CHARON-VAX execution session is stored.
