 | Steve Jones | steve.jones@freescale.com | Request | All | 2.6.1 | Top Groups and logbook directorys |
I am re-working our elog setup and am seriously looking at using the "Top Group" feature. What I like best is the ability to create [global] configurations for a group (or type) of logbook when I host multiple types on the same server. I also like being able to specify a different password file, etc.
A limitation that I run into is I would really like the actual directory names used for storing the logbooks for the different types to be identical - which isn't possible when all logbooks (regardless of context) exist at the same directory level. For example, I might have:
3 physical locations: ABC, DEF, GHI
For each location I want to maintain two *groups* of logbooks - CircuitTests and BoardTests. What I would like to end up with is:
- CircuitTests
----ABC
----DEF
----GHI
- BoardTests
----ABC
----DEF
----GHI
Under current elog this is not possble as far as I know. Since each logbook is a physical directory, each logbook requires a unique name. The concept of a named [global] area fills the bill for all things but it would be nifty if one could do:
[global circuittests]
Logbook dir = circuittestlogbooks
[global boardtests]
Logbook dir = boardtestlogbooks
I suppose the poorman's way of doing this is for each logbook to do the following:
[ABC]
Subdir = boardtestlogbooks/ABC
[DEF]
Subdir = boardtestlogbooks/DEF
[GHI]
Subdir = boardtestlogbooks/GHI
or something like that, but I was hopic for something a little more integrated - like creating the hierarchical stuff via the GUI. Anyway, this probably sounds like a major overhaul, which definitely wouldn't be worth it unless I have completely missed something glaringly obvious.
Thanks! |

The "Comment =" option for logbooks gives a general comment, like Discussion forum about ELOG for this forum. Since this comment is global, it does not make sense to have $attribute substitution. |

| Haitao Yu | htyu@phys.columbia.edu | Question | Linux | 2.6.1 | large attachment seems to hang elogd? |
Hello,
I am trying to attach somewhat large file (4-15MB files tested) with my messages but it seems to hang the elogd server for a really long time (30-100minutes). The file upload was done pretty soon (within a few seconds), then the elogd process seems to be busy doing something, using around 50MB of memory and 95% of CPU time, and stop respond to the requests. I can read the logbook with another copy of elogd running on another port, and I can see (and download) the uploaded file. I am wondering what could cause the problem --- and could it be related to the problem of not setting up the SMTP server right? Thanks for any suggestion!
Haitao
P.S. I read in some old message that if we want to upload very large files, we have to change the WEB_BUFFER_SIZE in elogd.c, however this parameter is no longer in v2.6.1. Is there something similiar I have to change? |

| Edmundo T Rodriguez | edrodrig@chpnet.org | Question | Linux | 2.6.1 | Problem submitting entries in ELOG after migrating from Windows to Linux |
I was able to install ELOG v2.61. in a Compaq ProLiant DL360 running with SUSE Linux v10
The migration/implementation went quiet well ...
ELOG v2.6.1 application came up find!.
I can login with No problems.
I can see previous logs entries, sort, etc.
But, I can NOT create any new-log (new entries) in any logbook. I get this message:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New entry cannot be written to directory
"/eLOGv261/logbooks/Administration/"
Please check that it exists and elogd has write access and disk is not full
Please use your browser's back button to go back
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The previous logbooks where in ...
\Program Files\ELOG\logbooks\Administration
\MainFrame
\Unix
\OpenVMS
\RDBMS
New logbooks are in the following place ...
/eLOGv261/logbooks/Administration
/MainFrame
/Unix
/OpenVMS
/RDBMS
How can it read old log entries and I NOT create new ones?
I am sure I missing something. Can I know what?
Also, It will be good to have an entry in the ELOG web-site
explaining any migration steps from Window to Linux and reverse!
Please, help.
Thank you! |
