2070.0. "Probewatch : longterm data recording" by SNOC02::BOYLEBRENDAN (Brendan Boyle) Tue Mar 07 1995 03:24

    Hi!
    
    Two questions for the Probewatch for Windows people out there...
    
    1. Domain install : number of buckets
    When installing a domain onto a Packetprobe90 there are fields to alter
    both the period and the number of buckets for the long-term and
    short-term history. However, when I configure these values to, for
    example, 5 min (300 sec) and 700 buckets, the interval is changed but
    the number of buckets recorded is uneffected. Regardless of how many
    hours or days have been monitored, only the most recent 60 buckets are
    displayed. Is this a known problem or can I force the number of buckets
    to increase another way???
    
    2. dvlog.cfg : auto-logging
    The only way I can get the auto-logging function to work is to edit out
    the comment symbol,#, in the dvlog.cfg header and alter the values in
    that line to contain my probe name and intervals. If I add or insert lines
    into this file, I register errors in dvlog.log and achieve no logging.
    Is there a limit on the number of lines in dvlog.cfg or is it a syntax
    problem eg. eol, tab or space character being rejected or are there
    other suggestions?? Visually, the entered lines are the same in spacing
    etc, and DOS Edit is being used in both cases.
    
       
    Thanks,
    
    Brendan.
