Synopsis

load_hist_config_v2 <argument list> <config_file>

Description

load_hist_config_v2 loads the configuration data for use by listp_v2(8) and HISTmngr_v2(1) .

If the partition doesn’t exist it will be created otherwise the existing partition is used.

This program must be run on the computer where the dosimetry partition is located otherwise a bogus partition may be created.

If this program is used in a script in a system with multiple AccelNET computers it is suggested that an rsh command be used to make sure this program runs on the correct computer.

This program is part of the NEC AMS system.

Arguments

Argument processing is done using Unix long argument syntax

--dose_host <hn>

The host where DOSEserv(8) is running.

If this argument is not present the default is "localhost". The DOSE_HOST environment variable is used if present.

--mem_size <sz>

The size of the shared memory partition.

This argument is in hexidecimal. It is not necessary to supply a leading 0x.

If the partition already exists the size argument is ignored.

Start the program with the --help argument to find out the default shared memory size.

--verbose=<n>

Normally the program does it’s work silently. This causes it to print various messages.

The argument is optional, if not given it defaults to 1.

The possible values are:

0 - run quietly
1 - print option table
2 - print more stuff
3 - print even more stuff

--show_tbl

Print the data structures contained in the shared memory partition after the configuration is loaded.

--help

print the help info and exit.

config_file - optional

The pathname to the configuration file.

If this argument is not supplied the filename pconv in the current working directory is used as the script name.

Environment Variables

DOSE_HOST: The host where DOSEserv(8) is running. Use this or use the --dose_host option. If both are present --dose_host option overrides DOSE_HOST.
