Stefan,

Thanks for your feedback. 

We had confirmed that the CPU load is running at at least 95% while these requests are being processed.  Additionally, we were attempting to use gprof to determine where the code was spending its time.  We have had several problems with trying to use gprof on that platform, both with using it for elog (we get seg faults) and then with using it on a small program created to test gprof on our particular setup (program runs; we get an output file; but all routines show that zero seconds were used).  So, unfortunately, I can not, at this point, provide a good idea of which routines are using the most CPU on this platform.  If we are able to get profiling results on this particular platform, I will certainly share them with you.

A possibly more relevant angle is that we have determined that executing floating-point operations seems to have a drastic impact on software execution times.  Can you point us to routines in the elogd code where floating point operations are taking place?

Thanks,

Tim

As far as I can remember there is no floating point in elog. 

Hi,

I installed ELOG on other machine for making automatic backups. I copied the .cfg file to the slave and edited the .cfg file on the original machine (mirror server entries).
(automatic configuration with -C didn't work somehow - maybe a firewall problem)

Then I tried to synchronize manually, which works great.
I set the mirror cron = 0 7-18 * * 1-5, as written as example in the documents, but nothing happens at full hours.

There's something else strange: I can't access "https://lx0.mydomain.org/" or "http://lx1.mydomain.org:8082/" directly. The browser just keeps loading - showing an empty page (and an error message after a long while). I have to add the name of the logbook to the link. Why is that?
If I set different paths in the [global HBAR] and [global SMI] areas (like URL = https://lx0.mydomain.org/hbar/), I can access the links above (giving me the overview page as expected), but I can't access the logbooks itself anymore.

However, that's not a big problem (I can access the logbooks via direct link and see all the others in the same group and switch to them), but the backup thing is.

So, main machine is lx0.mydomain.org and the backup machine is lx1...

Attached are my config files.
I deleted many of the logbook specific entries, since they aren't important and just look like the first one.

Hope anyone can help,
Roland.

The synchronize feature is totally worthless to me.

First of all the automatic backup doesn't work - and nobody seems to know why - and pressing the synchronize button by hand from time to time also doesn't work if the entry is too big:

Error sending local entry: Error transmitting message

So, copying the files manually helps, but for this I don't need a "fancy" synchronize feature.

 Hi,

I have several top groups and each has several logbooks.

If I use the global option Protect Selection page=1 and Show top groups = 1, after an user logs in to the top group selection URL, the elog steers away from the top group selection page, and automatically brings him to the logbook selection page of the first top group. Is the elog programmed to exhibit this behavior?

What I would prefer is that, after an user logs in, the elog stays on the top group selection page, sine each user has his preferred destination, not always the logbooks in the first top group. Is there any setting I can use in the config file to do this? 

(My users need to access different top groups and logbooks on regular basis).

Thank you and regards.
