Hello;

Could I make change on program only on the " elogd.cfg" ?

Or is there onother files, because I think there is hidden files ?

We run elog on a server to provide a logbook for our laboratory. We noticed that elog is very slow on loading pages: browser pages spend a lot of time in charging (actually one can speed the procedure refreshing the page but it is quite annoying).

I checked the server load with top and it doesn't show any abnormal CPU or memory usage. Then I ran lsof and I noticed that there are more than 200 entries related to the same elog PID and labelled with CLOSE_WAIT.

My questions are: can the slowness of my logbook be due to the presence of all these CLOSE_WAIT entries (which seems if I understood well wait for a response)? If it's the case, how can I solve this issue?

Thanks

Have you tried to restart the elogd server? The CLOSE_WAIT could be dangling network connections, which were not properly closed by the browser.

I have built different top groups for different departments. But occasionally these different top groups have the same logbook name, say 'Maintenance Log'. So is there a way I can have the same logbook name under different 'Top Groups', rather than rename these logbooks as 'Department1 Maintenance Log' all the way to 'Department_X Maintenance Log'?

Unfortunately you have to name these top groups differently, because they are internally used for the database name.

So both Top Group names and Logbook names should be unique inside one .cfg file, is that correct?

That's correct.

Hi,

I have an elogd server serves many logbooks.  May I know what is a good way to export or achive one its logbooks?  Thank you.
