Issues

  1. Move Sergio's server to a operational machine and provide space and directory structure

  2. Generation of PM ID

  3. Assignment of equipment name and/or address

  4. Conversion/Configuration using XML and/or database

  5. Browser

  6. Analysis - configuration information required here as well

 

Sergi has started the PMServer on lsasrv1.

The source of the PMServer are in the directory:
Linux: /user/pasinell/eclipse/workspace/PMServer
Window \\pslxgwpc\homes\eclipse\workspace\PMServer

CMW transfer working from Power Converter Gateways

I placed very first version of the PM browser under the following address:
http://test-netbeans.webtest.cern.ch/test%2Dnetbeans/postmortem/

Note that the property values are random thus plots are not very interesting.
It is just to give you an idea of how could it look like.

In reference to the problems which Steve encountered with Middleware , I currently try the "plan B" i.e. to propose a solution based on a
"modified" TCP/IP transfer to the PM server.

As the integration isn't going quite as smoothly as we expected it might be worth someone (writing a simple test program that includes a CMW device server thread and a post-mortem thread. 
[Kris to do this]
My gateway is fine as a real test of a proposed implementation, but it is not ideal for debugging issues like this and performing development.

Subject: PM & CMW

Hi Kris,

I have tried your suggestion of calling JTCInitialize() from my main thread before creating the post-mortem thread.  Following this change, the post-mortem thread works fine as a JTC thread if I create it on its own.

However, the situation when I try to run both a CMW device server and the post-mortem code (a CMW client) is now the same as it was with pthreads, ie:

- If I start the device server first, it starts okay.  Then the post-mortem thread stops the gateway with a 'break' when running rda->getDeviceHandle().

- If I start the post-mortem thread first, it starts okay.  Then the CMW device server thread receives a JTCUnknownThreadException when attempting to start a thread to handle the IO.

Cheers,

Stephen
