Mlogger

mlogger - MIDAS Logger

The MIDAS Logger, mlogger, is the main application that collects data from one or more frontends under certain conditions and stores them onto a physical device such as disk or tape. It also acts as a history event collector and can also store data in a mySQL database. The features and customization of the logger utility are fully described in the section Logging in MIDAS .

   Arguments
       [-h ] : help
       [-e exptname ] : experiment name (see odbedit - ODB Editor and run control utility)
       [-D ] : start program as a daemon (UNIX only).
       [-s] : Save mode (debugging: protect ODB).

Notes

   mlogger creates the Logger ODB_Tree with default values the first time it is run
   The mlogger application requires an existing /Equipment tree in the ODB
   Once the mlogger is running, you should be able to monitor its state with mstat or with mhttpd.
